Investigative journalist Jeremy Scahill is pulled into an unexpected journey as he chases down the hidden truth behind America's expanding covert war.
       Dirty War follows investigative reporter Jeremy Scahill, author of the international bestseller Blackwater, into the hidden world of America's covert war, from Afghanistan to Yemen, Somalia, and beyond. Part action film and part detective story, Dirty War is a gripping journey into one of the most important and underreported stories of our time. What begin as a report on a deadly U.S. night raid in a remote corner of Afghanistan quickly turn into a global investigation of the secretive and powerful Joint Special Operation Command (JSOC). As Scahill digs deeper into the activities of JSOC, he is pulled into a world of covert operation unknown to the public and carried out across the globe by men who do not exist on paper and will never appear before Congress. In military jargon, JSOC teams "find, fix, and finish" their targets, who are selected through a secret process. No target is off limits for the "kill list," including U.S. citizen.
