Book excerpt: During the 2016 presidential election, many younger voters repudiated Hillary Clinton because of her husband’s support for mass incarceration, banking deregulation and free-trade agreements that led many U.S. jobs to be shipped overseas. Warmonger: How Clinton’s Malign Foreign Policy Launched the Trajectory from Bush II to Biden, shows that Clinton’s foreign policy was just as bad as his domestic policy. Cultivating an image as a former anti-Vietnam War activist to win over the aging hippie set in his early years, as president, Clinton bombed six countries and, by the end of his first term, had committed U.S. troops to 25 separate military operations, compared to 17 in Ronald Reagan’s two terms. Clinton further expanded America’s covert empire of overseas surveillance outposts and spying and increased the budget for intelligence spending and the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), a CIA offshoot which promoted regime change in foreign nations. The latter was not surprising because, according to CIA operative Cord Meyer Jr., Clinton had been recruited into the CIA while a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford, and as Governor of Arkansas in the 1980s he had allowed clandestine arms and drug flights to Nicaraguan counter-revolutionaries (Contras) backed by the CIA to be taken from Mena Airport in the western part of the state. Rather than being a time of tranquility when the U.S. failed to pay attention to the gathering storm of terrorism, as New York Times columnist David Brooks frames it, the Clinton presidency saw rising tensions among the U.S., China and Russia because of Clinton’s malign foreign policies, and U.S. complicity in terrorist acts. In so many ways, Clinton’s presidency set the groundwork for the disasters that were to follow under Bush II, Obama, Trump, and Biden. It was Clinton—building off of Reagan—who first waged a War on Terror ridden with double standards, one that adopted terror tactics, including extraordinary rendition, bombing and the use of drones. It was Clinton who cried wolf about human rights abuses and the need to protect beleaguered peoples from genocide to justify military intervention in a post-Cold War age. And it was Clinton’s administration that pressed for regime change in Iraq and raised public alarm about the mythic WMDs—all while relying on fancy new military technologies and private military contractors to distance US shady military interventions from the public to limit dissent.

Where does the so-called 'Supremo', leader of the Alliance forces ranged against the General, come from, and why is he so interested in Peri?

For the Supremo. It is a conflict that will test both the Doctor and Peri to the limit, and bring them face to face with the dark sides of their own personalities.

Download or read book The Discord of Gods written by Jenn Lyons and published by Tor Books. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 746 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Discord of Gods marks the epic conclusion to Jenn Lyons's Chorus of Dragons series, closing out the saga that began with The Ruin of Kings, for fans of Brandon Sanderson and Patrick Rothfuss. THEIR CONFLICT COULD END THEM ALL. Relos Var's final plans to enslave the universe are on the cusp of fruition. He believes there's only one being in existence that might be able to stop him: the demon Xaltorath. As these two masterminds circle each other, neither is paying attention to the third player on the board, Kihrin. Unfortunately, keeping himself classified in the 'pawn' category means Kihrin must pretend to be everything the prophecies threatened he'd become: the destroyer of all, the sun eater, a mindless, remorseless plague upon the land. It also means finding an excuse to not destroy the people he loves (or any of the remaining Immortals) without arousing suspicion. Kihrin's goals are complicated by the fact that not all of his 'act' is one. His intentions may be sincere, but he's still being forced to grapple with the aftereffects of the corrupted magic ritual that twisted both him and the dragons. Worse, he's now tied to a body that is the literal avatar of a star — a form that is becoming increasingly, catastrophically unstable. All of which means he's running out of time. After all, some stars fade — but others explode. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Download or read book Obama Zombies written by Jason Mattera and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-03-23 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2008, Barack Obama lobotomized a generation. For an entire year, otherwise clear-thinking members of the most affluent, over-educated, information-drenched generation in American history fell prey to the most expensive, hi-tech, laser-focused marketing assault in presidential campaign history. Twitter messages were machine-gunned to cell phones at mach speed. Facebook and MySpace groups spread across the Internet like digital fire. YouTube videos featuring celebrities ricocheted across the globe and into college students’ in-boxes with devastating regularity. All the while, the mega-money-raising engine whirred like a slot machine stuck on jackpot. The result: an unthinking mass of young voters marched forward to elect the most radical and untested president in U.S. history. Recognized as one of the country’s top young conservative activists by Human Events, Jason Mattera created an internet sensation with ambush video interviews that exposed clueless young liberals and cunning Democratic officials. Now he reveals the jaw-dropping lengths Barack Obama and his allies in Hollywood, Washington, and Academia went to in order to transform a legion of iPod-listening, MTV-watching followers into a winning coalition that threatens to become a long-lasting political realignment. Obama Zombies uncovers the true, behind-the-scenes story of the methods and tactics the Obama campaign unleashed on youth culture. Through personal interviews and meticulous original research, Mattera explains why conservatism’s future rests upon jolting the young masses from their slumber, yanking out their earphones, and sparking a countercultural conservative battle against the rise of the ignorant Left. The lesson from 2008 is crystal clear: When true conservatives run away, Obama zombies come out to play.

Download or read book imperialist Warmonger Pig written by P N Gwynne and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-20 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AN UNCONVENTIONAL NOVEL... ABOUT AN UNCONVENTIONAL WAR. "Amerika", 1972. Green Beret 1LT J.J. Henderson had had a semi-rough year in Vietnam, But he found it hard to fit in with civilian life back home. To put it mildly. So he signed up for another tour - in a different country. But... same-same war. Praise for "IMPERIALIST WARMONGER PIG" of AN OCCURRENCE AT LANDING SITE-ECHO: "As an intelligence gatherer in Laos in early 1971, this story not only rings true, but brings back some vivid memories. Gwynne's novel accurately portrays the immortal frivolity of youth and the deadly hostilities in which our nation was involved a half-century ago. This may be a work of fiction, but it's 'the real deal'." -- GORDON EVANS, Captain USMC 1965-74" P.N. Gwynne is politically incorrect to the max, but his entertaining novel certainly captures the sense of what it was like in Southeast Asia during the late 1960's and early 1970's for at least some of the 'Secret Warriors.' He tells with great authenticity the story of a young First Lieutenant at a remote fire base in Vietnam who then goes on to even greater danger when he is assigned to the Secret War in a nearby country." - BRIAN J. O'CONNOR, Retired CIA Senior Intelligence Service officer, and former member of the National Intelligence Council. Praise for P.N. GWYNNE "The author's sensibility, however disturbing, is always expressed with wit. Mr. Gwynne can write." - THE NEW YORK TIMES The pseudonymous P. N. GWYNNE is a much-traveled American businessman who's lived and worked throughout sub-Saharan Africa. As a US Army 1st. Lieutenant he was awarded the Bronze Star in Vietnam. He was later a CIA Clandestine Service officer, with a paramilitary tour in northern Laos. He currently divides his time between Europe and his native New York. His previous novels are FIRMLY BY THE TAIL, PUSHKIN SHOVE, and THE BRONX BOMBING. https: //www.pngwynne.com/

Download or read book Political Government written by Robert Klassen and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2002-11 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social philosopher Spencer Heath maintained that we can’t recognize atrocity for what it is until we can entertain an alternative. The example he gave was chattel slavery in the ancient world; few questioned it and fewer still raised their voice against it. Having already outlined the natural alternative to political (i.e. tax-based) government in his companion book, Economic Government, Klassen now articulates with rare clarity why political government is atrocity. He calls this book “the end of my foray into criticism of political government.” I welcome this implied emphasis on the health of society rather than its pathology. But if articulation of the pathology is called for, Klassen has done it with skill and clarity, dispassionately, and with forbearance. Connoisseurs of political behavior will deepen their understanding and strengthen their analytical skill when they recognize that the subject of their study is social pathology and they themselves are pathologists; for a pathologist can only understand his subject matter in the light of social health. That is the contribution of this book and its companion book, Economic Government. —Spencer H. MacCallum, social anthropologist and author of The Art of Community.

Download or read book Hollywood Hates Hitler written by Chris Yogerst and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2020-08-25 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In September 1941, a handful of isolationist senators set out to tarnish Hollywood for warmongering. The United States was largely divided on the possibility of entering the European War, yet the immigrant moguls in Hollywood were acutely aware of the conditions in Europe. After Kristallnacht (the Night of Broken Glass), the gloves came off. Warner Bros. released the first directly anti-Nazi film in 1939 with Confessions of a Nazi Spy. Other studios followed with such films as The Mortal Storm (MGM), Man Hunt (Fox), The Man I Married (Fox), and The Great Dictator (United Artists). While these films represented a small percentage of Hollywood’s output, senators took aim at the Jews in Hollywood who were supposedly “agitating us for war” and launched an investigation that resulted in Senate Resolution 152. The resolution was aimed at both radio and movies that “have been extensively used for propaganda purposes designed to influence the public mind in the direction of participation in the European War.” When the Senate approved a subcommittee to investigate the intentions of these films, studio bosses were ready and willing to stand up against the government to defend their beloved industry. What followed was a complete embarrassment of the United States Senate and a large victory for Hollywood as well as freedom of speech. Many works of American film history only skim the surface of the 1941 investigation of Hollywood. In Hollywood Hates Hitler! Jew-Baiting, Anti-Nazism, and the Senate Investigation into Warmongering in Motion Pictures, author Chris Yogerst examines the years leading up to and through the Senate Investigation into Motion Picture War Propaganda, detailing the isolationist senators’ relationship with the America First movement. Through his use of primary documents and lengthy congressional records, Yogerst paints a picture of the investigation’s daily events both on Capitol Hill and in the national press.
Download or read book American Invasions written by Rocky M Mirza Ph D and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2010-08 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American Invasions: Canada to Afghanistan, 1775 to 2010 is a thought-provoking analysis of the reasons for American invasions and warmongering over the last two centuries. Contrary to the views expressed by the Western media and Western historians the American Empire is not a force for the promotion of free thinking and democracy but instead a force for imperial conquests and imposed dictatorships through the use of a military-industrial complex, fed by the American Empire outspending the rest of the world combined, on weapons of mass destruction. The American Empire has used and will continue to use the most sophisticated weapons, from nuclear bombs to bunker-busting bombs to land mines to chemical and biological weapons, on defenseless men, women, and children to feed its insatiable appetite for warmongering and imperial expansion. It combines military bases around the world with military prisons used for torture and extraction of information. Its navy patrols every corner of the globe, and its planes can rain down bombs from the heavens on every civilian on the planet.
Download or read book The Language of Politics written by Michael L. Geis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is the second of two I have done concerning how language is used to persuade others to believe things and to do things. The first, published by Aca demic Press, was The Language of Television Advertising, and was concerned with how advertisers use language in their efforts to sell products and services and how consumers could be expected to understand it. In this study, the focus is on how politicians use language to win elections and get others to accept their policies and programs and on how journalists report the suasive efforts of politicans. I combine an interest in the language of political reporting with an interest in the language of politics for a number of reasons. First, much of the suasive rhetoric of politicians is filtered through the minds of political journalists before it reaches the citizenry, and we can be reasonably sure that this rhetoric does not come out the way it went in. Second, the press plays a significant role in deter mining the nation's political agenda through its choices of what issues will be presented to the public, how these issues will be presented, and which voices will be heard speaking out on these issues. Third, political reporting can be suasive in effect, if not in intent, and it will be useful, I think, to understand how this is so.
