On this week’s bonus episode, exclusively for The Lever’s supporting subscribers, David Sirota sits down with activist and journalist Norman Solomon to discuss his new book, War Made Invisible: How America Hides the Human Toll of Its Military Machine

The book details how the United States military has been in a perpetual state of war since the United States invaded Afghanistan in 2001 – wars that have either gone underreported by the media or have been purposely obscured by military officials. David and Norman discuss how certain journalists have helped obscure these wars, how civilian injuries and deaths are often undercounted by military officials, and why new technologies have made warfare easier than ever.
