"Zulu Time is military jargon for Greenwich Mean Time. For most people, it is an obscure term. But as the United States extends its global reach, it is increasingly clear that no matter where you live or what language you speak, in the age of the lone superpower you're on Zulu Time. Zulu Time is Mark Little's portrait of an Ireland besieged by rumblings of war in far-off lands, an Ireland confused by its relationship with Bush's America and the protest, pop culture and parody that define it." "Taking us on a wartime journey from Ireland to Iraq, from Tehran to Texas, Mark Little introduces us to secret warriors and unrepentant assassins, smugglers and patriots, Muslim rockers and silent Americans. Zulu Time is a journey into the heart of a volatile new world, a world defined by being "with us" or "against us", a world where even the middle ground - that space between Britney and Bush, The Simpsons and Saddam - has become a battlefield."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
