Agents of Influence reveals the secret history of an intelligence agency gone out of control, accountable to no one but itself and intent on subverting Western politics on a near-inconceivable scale.

This book is not about who would make a better leader, or rather who had better policies. It is all about winning and losing. What one candidate did to win and what another did to lose election is the central part of the analysis of the book. This is what Niccolo Machiavelli expresses as “The ends justify the means”. I know politics has become the most controversial topic everywhere. Some people even fight; beat each other because of politics and politicians.

Nicht nur Putins Militärapparat, auch seine Propagandamaschine läuft seit dem Überfall auf die Ukraine im Februar 2022 auf Hochtouren: Im Netz führt die russische Regierung einen Cyberkrieg gegen unliebsame Zivilisten, Politiker und Institutionen aus dem In- und Ausland.

Just as the COVID-19 pandemic was coming to an end, everyone began to take a breath of relief. The world was finally at peace and could return to normal.
