Tragedy unfolded on April 19, 1995, when a massive bomb exploded in America's Heartland, killing 168 people, including fifteen children. History says the Oklahoma City bombing was lone wolf terrorism. But haunting fresh evidence points instead to a neo-Nazi plot in which the FBI played a hidden role. The FBI launched the biggest manhunt in its history for two suspected bombers. Yet they never captured the other suspect, known only as John Doe 2, who rode next to McVeigh in the bomb truck. Soon, the FBI canceled the search, saying eyewitnesses who saw John Doe 2 were mistaken.

Too often, these women are assumed to be controlled by men: their fathers, their husbands, or some other male relative. Mia Bloom contests this narrow understanding.

Bloom interrogates the prevailing perceptions about women's involvement in violent extremism exclusively as victims: manipulated, drugged, or coerced.

Spätestens seit der Corona-Pandemie ist klar: Unsere Grundrechte lassen sich viel leichter außer Kraft setzen, als wir es lange Zeit für möglich gehalten hätten. Wie genau konnte dies geschehen?

Deshalb wurden sie im Laufe der letzten 250 Jahre Schritt für Schritt proklamiert und in nationales und internationales Recht integriert.
