Inside America's Empire
The attacks of September 11, 2001, shattered the American mirage of invulnerability, a false security born of being the world's only superpower. The challenge of terrorism is likely to last for generations, and in a war without definable geographic borders or clear-cut victories, the threat may crop up anywhere. "Inside America's Empire" illuminates how the U.S. military is confronting this complicated challenge in unexpected and innovative ways, as chronicled by respected military correspondent Robert Kaplan of The Atlantic. Kaplan takes viewers to the Philippines, Mali, Colombia and the Republic of Georgia to meet the commanders and grunts who are waging the war on terror, often acting more as humanitarians than as warriors. Kaplan's insightful and incisive reporting and analysis make the case that this engagement with the peoples and cultures of the world is integral to America's security and future prosperity.
