About this audiobook

Modern wars do not persist only because of visible enemies, leaders, or battlefield decisions. They endure because deeper systems convert ungrieved trauma into insecurity, secrecy, debt, militarization, narrative control, and sacrifice. In this Life-Knowledge Commons audiobook, Dr. Bichara Sahely examines how nation-states, intelligence systems, finance, media, law, arms industries, and proxy conflicts can become mutually reinforcing structures of life-blind power. Using the Middle East as a burning case study, the work asks how humanity can move beyond sacrificial security toward mutual survivability, accountable truth, repair, and the equal non-disposability of all life. Developed in dialogue with GPT-5.5 Thinking / ChatGPT.
