“Feinstein has written an authoritative guide to the business of war. Chilling, heartbreaking and enraging.”
—Arundhati Roy
“The work of a knowledgeable, committed and angry activist . . . he has done a large service.”
—Financial Times
“The nobility and justice of Feinstein’s sentiments are indisputable.”
—Sunday Times
“With forensic rigour and moral clarity, the authors trace the bombs, money, corporations, governments and political networks that make mass destruction a lucrative industry. The book names the victims, follows the weapons, traces the money and shows that impunity is not accidental; it is organised. Making a Killing performs an essential act of witness and resistance. International law shall be our tool, but law without courage, evidence without action, and outrage without organisation will not be enough.”
—Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories
“Genocidal slaughter in the colonies is an extractive process. The bodies of people of colour are themselves mined through wounding and killing to generate wealth in the global North. This forensic examination of the mechanisms by which this accumulation by wounding, now central to late capitalist imperialism, is critical for us to understand the magnitude of this mode of production.”
—Ghassan Abu Sittah
“The global arms industry is one of the most secretive and deadly on the planet, committed to shredding men, women and children in the name of ’national security’. This book explodes that myth with harrowing testimony and investigations into how the civilians of Gaza and Yemen are paying the ultimate price for an horrific industry. Read, weep and act.”
—Antony Loewenstein, author of The Palestine Laboratory
“Most people are shocked by the horrific bombing of civilians in Palestine and Yemen. This book follows how the weapons are made, from the innocent victims back to the producers, dealers and distributors directly implicated in the value chain, as well as the governments complicit in these crimes. It will be invaluable for anyone challenging the arms trade.”
—Helen Lackner, author of Yemen in Crisis
