Jihad and Empire

The political economy of oil, empire, Saudi Arabia, "Jihad", global forces of capital, "Islam", "democracy", etc. Some interesting stuff here. I don't think though that the figure regarding the numbers of the Iraqi deaths due to sactions is accurate. Recent studies have the put the number of deaths around 200,000. I also think that Mitchell should have put both words Islam and democracy in inverted commas. "McJihad: Islam and Empire"
