In The CIA’s Afghan Gambit: Operation Cyclone, uncover the hidden history of the covert war that toppled the Soviet Union—only to unleash global jihad and decades of chaos.

* The CIA and Pakistan’s ISI funneled weapons, money, and ideology into Afghanistan.

* The Stinger missile revolution turned ragtag fighters into a superpower’s nightmare.

* A proxy war created freedom fighters the West celebrated—until they became fanatics.

* Afghanistan became the graveyard of empires, breaking the Soviets, bleeding America, and leaving millions trapped in endless war.

* Al-Qaeda rose from the ashes, transforming local jihad into a global holy war.
