Download or read book Proof of Conspiracy written by Seth Abramson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2019-09-03 with total page 753 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dramatic and meticulously researched new book from former criminal defence attorney and criminal investigator Seth Abramson into the complex web of ties surrounding Donald Trump, showing how Proof of Collusion was only the beginning of the story. In late 2015, international dealmaker and current cooperating witness in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation George Nader convened a secret meeting aboard a massive luxury yacht in the Red Sea. Nader pitched to several Middle Eastern leaders a plan for a new pro-US, pro-Israel alliance of Arab nations that would fundamentally alter the geopolitics of the Middle East while marginalising Iran, Syria and Turkey. To succeed, the plan would need a highly placed American politician willing to drop sanctions on Russia so that Vladimir Putin would in turn agree to end his support for Iran. The gathered leaders agreed their perfect American partner was Donald Trump, who had benefited immensely from his Saudi, Emirati and Russian dealings for many years, and who had, months earlier, become the only US presidential candidate to argue for a unilateral end to Russian sanctions. So begins New York Times bestselling author Seth Abramson’s explosive new book Proof of Conspiracy: How Trump's International Collusion Threatens American Democracy, a story of international intrigue whose massive cast of characters includes Israeli intelligence operatives, Russian oligarchs, Saudi death squads, American mercenary companies, Trump’s innermost circle and several members of the Trump family - all part of a clandestine multinational agreement that takes us from Washington, DC and Moscow to the Middle Eastern capitals of Riyadh, Abu Dhabi, Jerusalem, Cairo, Tehran and Doha. Proof of Conspiracy is a chilling and unforgettable depiction of the dangers the world now faces.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Definitive account of the famous 1963 Great Train Robbery - and its aftermath. In the early hours of Thursday 8th August 1963 at rural Cheddington in Buckinghamshire, £2.6 million (£50 million today) in unmarked £5, £1 and 10-shilling notes was stolen from the Glasgow to London nightmail train in a daring and brilliantly executed operation lasting just 46 minutes. Quickly dubbed the crime of the century, it has captured the imagination of the public and the world's media for 50 years, taking its place in British folklore and giving birth to the myths of The Great Train Robbery. Ronnie Biggs, Buster Edwards and Bruce Reynolds became household names. But what really happened? This is the story of four talented villains who took the criminal world by storm, of the 'perfect crime'. It is also the story of ruthless policemen, determined to hunt the robbers down and to make sure nobody slipped through the net, not even the innocent. It is the story of an Establishment under siege, and of one mistake which cost the robbers 307 years in prison. Fifty years later, here is the story set out in full for the first time, a true-life crime thriller, and also a vivid slice of British social history.

Download or read book Conspiracies and Conspiracy Theories in the Age of Trump written by Daniel C. Hellinger and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-25 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conspiracies and Conspiracy Theory in the Age of Trump stands out in the burgeoning literature on conspiracism with its call for political scientists to analyze not only “conspiracy theory” as political pathology but conspiracies themselves as political behavior symbiotically related to moral hazards and other forces unleashed by dark money, disinformation, changing technologies, and globalization. This new updated edition extends this analysis to the belief by many Americans that the 2020 election was stolen, resistance to social measures to counter the Covid epidemic, attempts by Trump and his allies to “stop the steal,” and the resulting mob insurrection at the Capitol on January 6. We likely will see both conspiracism and actual conspiracies play a greater role due to institutional decay in American politics. For this reason, political scientists need to analyse and theorize the role of conspiracies in politics—why they prosper and fail, how conspiracies may inflect political outcomes, what relationship they bear to social forces unleashed by great economic and social change.

Download or read book Psalm 83 a New Discovery written by Alexander Zephyr and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2014-11-13 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this remarkable book, Alexander Zephyr reveals the true identities of the nations that will participate in the genocidal conspiracy against Israel described by the Prophet Asaph in Psalm 83. Through extensive research, Zephyr offers biblical scholars and students comprehensive explanations grounded in cogent scholarship on the Scriptures. Geopolitical events have catapulted the Middle East into a battlefield between Israel and its Arab-Muslim neighbors. This war has become a spectacle that command attention on the world stage. Other nations, however, are not merely passive spectators; what happens in the Middle East profoundly affects them regardless of their geographical location. Indeed, perhaps no other conflict is more influential and complicated, or persistent, than that in Israel and specifically in Jerusalem. Israel is also the key to understanding Asaphs prophecy. In Psalm 83: A New Discovery, Zephyr offers a clear and compelling reading of this prophecy that correctly identifies players of an already unfolding eschatological drama whose script has been divinely written.

Download or read book Coleridge on Shakespeare written by R. A. Foakes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1971. The only substantial text of a series of lectures on Shakespeare by S T Coleridge is that provided by J P Collier's Seven Lectures on Shakespeare and Milton (1856). His text of these important lectures given by Coleridge in 1811-12 has been the basis of all modern editions. This edition is based on hitherto unpublished transcripts of the lectures made by Collier when, as a young man, he attended Coleridge's lectures. R A Foakes' introduction and appendices demonstrate the extent to which Collier revised and altered Coleridge's words for the edition he published forty-five years later. This volume therefore provides a much more authoritative text of Coleridge's most important Shakespeare lectures.
