The anti-Damascus lobby in the US has coerced a bookstore in Washington DC to “postpone” the launch of investigative journalist Max Blumenthal’s new book, which exposes dirty secrets of US regime-change tactics, he has told RT.
The award-winning author was due to speak at the Politics and Prose bookstore in US capital on Wednesday night, before the organizers abruptly “postponed” the event, citing possible security and “substance” concerns. The Syrian American Council is to blame for the cancellation, Blumenthal told RT.
“The Syrian regime-change lobby has targeted me, tried to silence me. And they targeted Politics and Prose [bookstore],” the journalist said.
What we’re seeing is a censorship campaign to cover up one of the greatest scandals of our time.
In his new book ‘The Management of Savagery: How America's National Security State Fueled the Rise of Al Qaeda, ISIS, and Donald Trump’, the author exposes how the US has spent billions on training, arming, and guiding extremist insurgents for the last 40 years.
