Caleb Carr makes a case that the war on terrorism itself has become a form of terrorism for many people throughout the world, including within the United States.

Fighting terror with terror is not consistent with the American core values, Carr claims.

Some of his examples are almost terrifying. As they aught to be. The book is certainly worth reading.
