The book explores the United States' historical disregard for the sovereignty of other nations, specifically focusing on Greece. It argues that for over fifty years, the U.S. has exploited Greece to further its own geopolitical interests, ultimately undermining Greece's pursuit of democratic freedoms. The author contends that Greece's strategic significance has led to its suffering under the guise of protection by the United States.
