Here's what people are saying about Bleeding
Afghanistan:
If you want the real story behind the US war in
Afghanistan, read this book now! Bleeding Afghanistan
is a thoroughly researched analysis of US policy.
Kolhatkar and Ingalls show how Afghan women were used
to dupe us into a war that has neither improved the
security of Americans, nor liberated the people of
Afghanistan. A wake-up call to everyone who thought
the war was a success story. Eve Ensler
Bleeding Afghanistan is without a doubt the most
realistic and sincere reflection of the ongoing
tragedy in my ill-fated Afghanistan, covering every
aspect of life under the US domination and its
fundamentalist criminals and warlord hirelings
The
book breaks the silence on many hidden agendas of the
US administration in Afghanistan. Malalai Joya,
member of Afghan Parliament
*Book launch details: Bleeding Afghanistan:
Washington, Warlords and the Propaganda of Silence.
With authors Sonali Kolhatkar and James Ingalls. Friday, November
3, 7p.m. at SFU Harbour Centre (515 W.Hastings), Room
