Many consider the USA to be the greatest threat to world peace. What is the reason for this? A book about the background, motives, and means of the world power USA. According to many, the USA has the strongest destabilizing influence on global events and thus poses the greatest threat to world peace. This unfortunate leading position has not been acquired by the world power number one without reason. No other nation has bombed as many other countries or overthrown as many governments since 1945 as the USA. They maintain the most military bases, export the most weapons, and have the highest military budget in the world. Daniele Ganser vividly describes how the USA conducts global power politics, in which violence is a central element.
