The hidden networks that connect the West with the brutal devastation in the wars of the Middle East, by leading arms trade Investigators and author of The Shadow World

Gaza is the first televised genocide in human history, while the war in Yemen, facilitated by western arms supplies to the Saudi-led coalition, was all but invisible in the western media. As images of Western-supplied weapons killing civilians flood social media, the traditional narratives about "humanitarian intervention" and "rules-based order" have shattered.
Told through on-the-ground accounts the booktraces the blood money flowing through London, Washington, and European capitals and the weapons that wreak violence and suffering across Yemen and Gaza. Through meticulous investigation, Andrew Feinstein and his team of arms trade experts reveal how Western governments systematically violate their own laws to fuel genocidal conflicts, and have created a revolving door of politicians, military leaders, and corporate executives enriching themselves while demolishing international law.
