how war became infrastructure. How experimental weapons—chemical, biological, technological—were tested on real people across the Middle East. And how the U.S. helped design, enable, and ignore it all.

I’ve been writing this book for years.

It’s about how war became infrastructure.

How experimental weapons—chemical, biological, technological—were tested on real people across the Middle East.

And how the U.S. helped design, enable, and ignore it all.

This book is about the silence.

The archives.

The survivors.

And yes—it’s about how we got here.

It’s not a book about “foreign policy.”

It’s a book about what happens when one region becomes the world’s proving ground for violence—and no one is held accountable.

More soon.
