Fronting the Foreign Policy of the Permanent Warfare State
by Jeremy Kuzmarov

Obama's Unending Wars provides the first critical, comprehensive, highly documented history of the foreign policy of America's Peace Laureate president - the drone king who ordered the bombing of seven Muslim countries, backtracked on his pledge to reduce America's nuclear arsenal, and helped fuel a new Cold War with Russia.
