"One of the popular sayings I repeatedly heard in Baghdad, describing the relations between the U.S. and Saddam's regime, is 'Rah el sani', ija el ussta' – 'Gone is the apprentice, in comes the master.'"

What this suggests about the people running America is far worse than if they were simply malevolent super-geniuses: They don't know the backstory and couldn't care less. It's as though we're riding in the back seat of a car driven by people who demanded the wheel but aren't sure what the gas pedal does or what a stop sign actually looks like.

Interview - The End of America

Naomi Wolf discusses her new book "The End of America"

The book identifies ten classic steps common to all dictatorships -- including those of Mussolini, Hitler and Stalin.

Alarmingly, Wolf makes the case that each of these ten steps is occurring in post 9/11 America right now. The book is a call to action for young and concerned Americans and this interview intimately frames this important discussion.
