Editorial Review:

In 2004, David Ray Griffin published The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions about the Bush Administration and 9/11. Translated into several languages, it helped spark a worldwide movement demanding "9/11 truth." Even as it became increasingly outdated, it continued to be widely cited as the best introduction to the issues.

Griffin has now written The New Pearl Harbor Revisited, which provides a chapter-by-chapter updating of the information provided in that earlier book. It shows that the case against the official account constructed by independent researchers - who now include architects, engineers, physicists, pilots, politicians, and former military officers - is far stronger than it was in 2004, leaving no doubt that 9/11 was a false flag operation, designed to give the Bush-Cheney administration a pretext to attack oil-rich Muslim nations.

Taken together, these two books provide everything one needs to make an informed decision about 9/11 - whether one is a journalist, a political leader, a religious leader, or an ordinary citizen concerned about truth, democracy, and the rule of law.

Editorial Review:

The ancient order of the Knights Templar possessed untold wealth and absolute power over kings and popes . . . until the Inquisition, when they were wiped from the face of the earth, their hidden riches lost. But now two forces vying for the treasure have learned that it is not at all what they thought it was–and its true nature could change the modern world.

Cotton Malone, one-time top operative for the U.S. Justice Department, is enjoying his quiet new life as an antiquarian book dealer in Copenhagen when an unexpected call to action reawakens his hair-trigger instincts–and plunges him back into the cloak-and-dagger world he thought he’d left behind.

It begins with a violent robbery attempt on Cotton’s former supervisor, Stephanie Nelle, who’s far from home on a mission that has nothing to do with national security. Armed with vital clues to a series of centuries-old puzzles scattered across Europe, she means to crack a mystery that has tantalized scholars and fortune-hunters through the ages by finding the legendary cache of wealth and forbidden knowledge thought to have been lost forever when the order of the Knights Templar was exterminated in the fourteenth century. But she’s not alone. Competing for the historic prize–and desperate for the crucial information Stephanie possesses–is Raymond de Roquefort, a shadowy zealot with an army of assassins at his command.

Welcome or not, Cotton seeks to even the odds in the perilous race. But the more he learns about the ancient conspiracy surrounding the Knights Templar, the more he realizes that even more than lives are at stake. At the end of a lethal game of conquest, rife with intrigue, treachery, and craven lust for power, lies a shattering discovery that could rock the civilized world–and, in the wrong hands, bring it to its knees.

Hook, Line and Sinker 1 out of 5 stars.

Like others, I read this book based on the how much I enjoyed Eco's "The Name of the Rose". Page after page I slogged through, holding out hope that Eco was somehow going to redeem this little piece of quicksand. Only to realize that sometimes, even a great writer, will just let you sink.

Not worth reading ... 3 out of 5 stars.
1 of 3 people found this review helpful.

Note: An error lead to three stars instead of 1.

This is just a bad, bad book with virtually no storyline to speak of.

I picked this book up after reading numerous accounts of how it is an intellectual Da Vinci Code that will thrill the reader and leave him on the edge of his seat. It isn't.

The first 450 pages or so can be skipped. Really. Nothing happens to any of the characters that will play a role later on. A significant portion of these pages are nonsensical entries into a word processor that was likely used for filler. Some of these entries talk of the author's elation at finding the Find and Replace option. Others are short stories of a talentless author - that's the character he plays, a talentless author - that go no where. Either way, they don't relate to the storyline - which doesn't exist.

After you skip those first 450 pages you can really skip the rest of the book. Nothing happens that's worth reading. There are no chases. There are no close calls or anything of the sort.

The book starts off with the main character sneaking into a museum, the next 450 pages or so are of him reflecting on the events that lead to him here - not important - finally, what he's waiting for simply happens. There is no struggle. Those he is observing are not even aware he's in the museum with him. The dead is done and the book ends.

Outside of the nonexistent storyline the book is just plain silly. Anything and everything from literature is used as proof of a secret plan by the Templars.

There are a lot of places and references most Americans won't understand as they're just not familiar to us. Don't waste time on these. Umberto Eco is simply name dropping. I looked up every place or event I wasn't familiar with in the first 300 pages only to learn that none of them are related to the story.

This book just isn't worth reading. At all.

Editorial Review:

Three book editors, jaded by reading far too many crackpot manuscripts on the mystic and the occult, are inspired by an extraordinary conspiracy story told to them by a strange colonel to have some fun. They start feeding random bits of information into a powerful computer capable of inventing connections between the entries, thinking they are creating nothing more than an amusing game, but then their game starts to take over, the deaths start mounting, and they are forced into a frantic search for the truth.

The David Icke Guide to the Global Conspiracy 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

"Fact can be stranger than fiction" and this is certainly the case here as David exposes the long held hidden agenda of deceit and manipulation in fine detail. The "official" cover story of so called `terrorism' is but just one aspect that does not standup to his questioning and clearly shows that the public are being conned on a scale previously thought unconceivable. The cat is out of the bag in a big way and those involved will be rightfully trembling in their boots. For the rest of us, it is the beginning of being able to "connect the dots" and get the overall picture. Good on you David, you have uncovered the story of the ages!

Phenomenally Researched and Presented 4 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

Since coming to David Icke's work, I've spent most of my free time reading and watching his work. This book is the go-to title if you are new to his research. Every page is filled with information every good-living NWO fighter needs to know. It takes the reader from issues as fundamental as the nature of reality to the symbolism involved with secret societies. Everything is illustrated (where necessary) and sourced thoroughly. For those of us willing to question our reality, David Icke shines the light into the darkness of deception. This research is what 'the shadow people' don't want you to know-- or even think about. Mr. Icke's work is some of the most important in human history. This, I'd venture to say, is his masterpiece-- thus far. With David Icke alive, the New World Order doesn't stand a chance.

It withhold one star for Mr. Icke's total denial as Jesus Christ. He claims he never existed without more research into the subject. I hope Mr. Icke devotes more time to the possibility of a historical Jesus. Christians will be turned off by this but this work is too important to ignore the information that IS researched and proven.

Editorial Review:

His latest book is a extraordinary and unique compilation of his 20 yrs of research in more than 40 countries, as he connects the dots between apparently unconnected people, events and subjects to show how everything fits togehter -- and to what end.

New Orleans in the summer of 1963, behind the scenes of the JFK assassination, this book is one-of-a-kind 5 out of 5 stars.
7 of 7 people found this review helpful.

If you don't want to be challenged, or you want to believe the Warren Commission Report that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone and unaided in the assassination of JFK, or that New Orleans and the events taking place there played no part in the assassination, don't bother to read Dr Mary's Monkey, for it will disrupt your complacency and demolish your assumptions.

This book is a serious attempt to move into an area of research that is as-yet mostly uncharted with little documentation. And it is no surprise -- most of the people involved are dead -- something happened to them soon after the assassination. One has survived, though; a woman who has created more controversy and discussion than anybody connected to the assassination, save for perhaps Lee Oswald himself.

Judyth Vary Baker, who now resides outside of the US for her own safety, is the witness whose statements pull together this book into a cohesive theory of what might have happened behind the scenes of the assassination. In addition, Haslam is a good writer who uses his own experiences (they create rather eccentric credentials for his passion for his subject-matter) to give us a book that is a real page-turner. An updated and expanded version of his earlier outrageously fascinating book "Mary, Ferrie and the Monkey Virus", which gained a considerable cult following over the years, this edition has photos and documentation galore.

Editorial Review:

The 1964 murder of a nationally known cancer researcher sets the stage for this gripping exposé of medical professionals enmeshed in covert government operations over the course of three decades. Following a trail of police records, FBI files, cancer statistics, and medical journals, this revealing book presents evidence of a web of medical secret-keeping that began with the handling of evidence in the JFK assassination and continued apace, sweeping doctors into coverups of cancer outbreaks, contaminated polio vaccine, the arrival of the AIDS virus, and biological weapon research using infected monkeys.

Brilliant ! 5 out of 5 stars.
4 of 6 people found this review helpful.

Given that this book is essentially covered by the reviews of its primary source "Reclaiming History" from which it is extracted, I can only reiterate the majority view here that this book is well worth reading - especially if you have not the time for the 1700 pages plus of the aforementioned RH. That said Four Days in November is still in itself a comprehensive study of the events of the weekend of November 1963 and stands alone as fine and thoroughly researched counter view to the hundreds of pro conspiracy books written on this subject.

What struck me most about this book are the many (some 25 or so) reviews of Reclaiming History in the opening pages. Why is this relevant and important you may ask ? It is probably fair to say that a good many of the reviewers represent established and scholarly if not at least dependable organizations - and that these reviewers were open minded or perhaps even reflected the majority of the American public on this subject - that Kennedy was killed as a result of a conspiracy.

But what do they now say....well words to the effect that Reclaiming History (and therefore Four Days in November) establishes beyond a reasonable doubt and in truth beyond a doubt that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone - that the majority have been duped by pro conspiracy wishful thinking for some 40 plus years. To convince so overwhelmingly is a genuine achievement and one must reflect that if so many people - who's job it is to evaluate subject matter such as this - are convinced by Bugliosi after all this time, then he must be worth reading.

So after all this time Oswald "did it after all". Is that true one may well ask ? There is no reason for the many dozens of reviewers to praise the book and still not disagree with its conclusion, but the fact is they do agree with the conclusion. Why ? Because one, they have actually read the book and two they have thought about what they have read. The fact is, if you do actually read the book you will almost certainly agree with its conclusions. Even the chances that a small conspiracy with the tiniest "c" occurred, is dismissed with ease leaving the thoughtful reader in no doubt that Lee Harvey Oswald alone killed John F. Kennedy.

Editorial Review:

"As good a second-by-second reconstruction of the assassination and its aftermath as I've read."—Bryan Burrough, New York Times

Four Days in November is an extraordinarily exciting, precise, and definitive narrative of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963, by Lee Harvey Oswald. It is drawn from Reclaiming History: The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy, a huge and historic account of the event and all the conspiracy theories it spawned, by Vincent Bugliosi, famed prosecutor of Charles Manson and author of Helter Skelter. For general readers, the carefully documented account presented in Four Days is utterly persuasive: Oswald did it and he acted alone. 81 illustrations.

Editorial Review:

The year is 1997, Michael Soussan, a fresh-faced young graduate takes up a new job at the U.N.’s Oil-for-Food Program, the largest humanitarian operation in the organization’s history. His mission is to help Iraqi civilians survive the devastating impact of economic sanctions that were imposed following the 1990 invasion of Kuwait.

As a gaffe-prone novice in a world of sensitive taboos, Soussan struggles to negotiate the increasing paranoia of his incomprehensible boss and the inner workings of one of the world’s notoriously complex bureaucracies. But as he learns more about the vast sums of money flowing through the program, it becomes clear that all is not what it seems. Soussan becomes aware that Saddam Hussein is extracting illegal kickbacks, a discovery that sets him on a collision course with the organization‘s leadership. On March 8, 2004, in a Wall Street Journal op-ed editorial, Soussan becomes the first insider to call for “an independent investigation” of the U.N.’s dealings with Saddam Hussein. One week later, a humiliated Kofi Annan appointed Paul Volcker to lead a team of sixty international investigators, whose findings resulted in hundreds of prosecutions in multiple countries, many of which are still ongoing.

Backstabbing for Beginners is at once a witty tale of one man’s political coming of age, and a stinging indictment of the hypocrisy that prevailed at the heart of one of the world’s most idealistic institutions.

Brainwashing 5 out of 5 stars.
9 of 12 people found this review helpful.

Alan B. Jones in this book in simple terms explains how the elite operate with their upper class puppets that they buy,sell,and deal with as is profitable for their criminal acts.

Jones uses 12 books to support is contention of what elite have done,and do.

I will in very simple terms state a fraction of what Jones has wrote in these books.

The FED is unconstitutional It produces paper money which through inflation becomes worthless.It is a private bank.They convert your valued money into assets which increase in value.Read my other reviews for details.It is my opinion among others that the FED is the major problem in how the U.S. is in decline.It is stated that international bankers run the world with their corporation puppets,and other super rich.They contrive to make war,and play all sides against each other.The purpose is to keep the populace in check, make profit,and retain power.The education system has been degraded to keep the people stupid,and they have been successful.They want one world.This way they can control forever, they think?.A king is best form of rule,not democracy,and an informed public.This is their constant fear.This is the elite conspiracy.One world,one culture,open borders,Free Trade,no rules except theirs.

Now going back to the Fed.Look at expressions on officials faces as result of crash in the housing market,and general economy which will be world wide.Some of the upper classes now realize that they will be in poverty,so even through they help create the criminal system now want it changed.The FED says it will regulate itself.What a joke.Like Israel it keep talking,and taking,with no change.I will repeat the FEDERAL RESERVE
IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL,YET IT EXIST.

Immigration is used to exploit nations by reducing value of individual,
and producing profit on volume.In others words the entire system is corrupt,it is a game that is fixed.You know about excessive profit of corporations,and business general.You know about lawless government with a president that should not be.He exist because the government,and the corporation are corrupt.This includes individuals.This is the international conspiracy of elite,world control,you without rights,without hope,outsource everything to China,India,and others,so that America can be destroyed,and then they can reorganize the world economy as elite like it,all power to them.They will say we want to make the world better,but look, over population,slavery,war,exploitation of all means,who profits from this hell,you know who?

Are the above statements in fact true.Is the intent to undermine America?Did the FED and its others in the business get caught.Does America have to go down,for China and the others to take over making America third world?Would this be more profitable and safe for them.

Editorial Review:

This extensively indexed book succinctly summarizes the findings of a dozen or so of the most important works of the 20th century - from both sides of the conflict - which expose how and why a cabal of international plutocrats is planning to destroy America and any other country preventing the ultimate hegemony of their New World Order.

Editorial Review:

For over forty years the truth about the assassination of President John F. Kennedy has been obscured. This book releases us from a crippling distortion of American history.

This extraordinary and historic book required twenty years to research and write. The oft-challenged findings of the Warren Commission—Lee Harvey Oswald, acting alone, shot and killed President John F. Kennedy—are here confirmed beyond all doubt. But Reclaiming History does much more than that. In addition to providing a powerful and unprecedented narrative of events and a biography of the assassin, it confronts and destroys every one of the conspiracy theories that have grown up since the assassination, exposing their selective use of evidence, flawed logic, and outright deceptions. So thoroughly documented, so compellingly lucid in its conclusions, Reclaiming History is, in a sense, the investigation that completes the work of the Warren Commission. In it, Vincent Bugliosi, the nation's foremost prosecutor, takes on the most important murder in American history.

At 1:00 p.m. on November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was pronounced dead, the victim of a sniper attack during his motorcade through Dallas. That may be the only fact generally agreed upon in the vast literature spawned by the assassination. National polls reveal that an overwhelming majority of Americans (75%) believe that there was a high-level conspiracy behind Lee Harvey Oswald. Many even believe that Oswald was entirely innocent. In this continuously absorbing, powerful, ground-breaking book, Vincent Bugliosi shows how we have come to believe such lies about an event that changed the course of history.

The brilliant prosecutor of Charles Manson and the man who forged an iron-clad case of circumstantial guilt around O. J. Simpson in his best-selling Outrage, Bugliosi is perhaps the only man in America capable of writing the definitive book on the Kennedy assassination. This is an achievement that has for years seemed beyond reach. No one imagined that such a book would ever be written: a single volume that once and for all resolves, beyond any reasonable doubt, every lingering question as to what happened in Dallas and who was responsible.

There have been hundreds of books about the assassination, but there has never been a book that covers the entire case, including addressing each and every conspiracy theory and the facts, or alleged facts, on which they are based. In this monumental work, the author has raised scholarship on the assassination to a new and final level, one that far surpasses all other books on the subject. It adds resonance, depth, and closure to the admirable work of the Warren Commission.

Reclaiming History is a narrative compendium of fact, forensic evidence, reexamination of key witnesses, and common sense. Every detail and nuance is accounted for, every conspiracy theory revealed as a fraud on the American public. Bugliosi's irresistible logic, command of the evidence, and ability to draw startling inferences shed fresh light on this American nightmare. At last it all makes sense.

The most informative book I have ever read, on the subject(s) of, world-power, extraterrestials, conspiracy etc.
David Icke has to be admired for his exhaustive researches.
He not only states something, he also backs it up. This is what makes this book so very intriguing. You can't just say:' No way.. balogna.." because of the researched facts he has.
One glaring error that I can see is,his inability to see the power of the hand of the creator, in all of this. Even though he quotes the bible often, it is not done in correct perspective, or contextual.
In fact, if anything at all, this book literally drives you into the hands of your Creator, because as David so excellently shows you, there is no way out, no where.. ever !
In this context.. life would make no sense at all.. but it would be a random and meaningless existance we all live in.
As for me.. this excellently written, fascinating book.. has driven me even closer into the hands of my God and Creator !

Editorial Review:

David Icke's most powerful and explosive book so far. Every man, woman and child on the planet is affected by the stunning information that Icke exposes. He reveals in documented detail, how the same interconnecting bloodlines have controlled the planet for thousands of years. How they created all the major religions and suppressed the spiritual and esoteric knowledge that will set humanity free from its mental and emotional prisons.
