Conspiracy after another ....Not a good read!!! June 5, 2007

I was looking for more statistical information and got a political diatribe. The looming energy crisis is everyone's problem and we should all invest our time and energy in solutions not this riff raff.

Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury March 17, 2007
15 out of 21 found this review helpful

Mike Ruppert, Former LAPD Narcotics agent begins the book with background into the established complicity of the CIA. The US's CIA & mafia trading drugs for Weapons to Iran back in 1977, and revealing the US governments liquid assets from money laundering to the tune of 500bil to 1.5 trillion- a year.
He presents back ground info as if he were speaking to a Jury; Further defining Peak Oil as a commodity that will cease to exist in our Children and grand Children's lifetime. We are on the down side of peak oil.
Further, he points out motive and back ground from Zbigniew Brzezinski's "The Grand Chessboard......" Regarding the Civil war In Afghanistan with Russia as destabilization of the Soviet Union for the US to proceed with their illegal, self serving agenda, etc.
I've been familiar with Mike Ruppert's work through his website.
His work has been congruent with my own research, and other research the author makes reference to in the book: ie; The Center For Cooperative Research Timeline, which I've had the pleasure of working with Paul Thompson on. I have recommended this book to many on another site who are all working on putting the pieces of that day together.
I am grateful to see so many in the EU working diligently on this historical day of tragedy (That was swept under the proverbial carpet) and subsequent propaganda by the US Government, and Bush's premeditated, yet falsely preemptive attack on Iraq.

The Most Informative Book on Government and Oil. March 9, 2007
17 out of 21 found this review helpful

If you think you know the oil business and how it effects our country and the globe - you're wrong. This book is packed with factual information and historical accounts; all which is documented and archived.

I am more educated on how our government and other governments are oil reactionary. From drugs, to covert operations (Bay of Pigs), military operations, to government greed and cover-ups, this tells it all; everything the media neglected to report or publish.

This book is about cold, factual information and NOT politcal agendas. Mr. Ruppert reports on both conservative and liberal government activity.

Thought provoking and educational. It is so overwhelming with data, I have re-read chapters. I now understand how our economy is actually driven and why our position is no different then other world economies. "He with the most muscle (or nuclear weapons) controls resources and wins".

Read it.

A MUST read February 13, 2007
25 out of 27 found this review helpful

First I watched the DVD "Loose Change" and ended up with more questions than answers. One of the suggested books was Ruppert's "Crossing the Rubicon". This is a MUST read for anyone who thinks there was something wrong with the "offical" explanation of 9/11. If you have one question about the whole incident or if you just feel that something isn't quite right, this is the book to read. I don't know what happened to Ruppert...he got sick...he dropped out of sight. But then over 11 microbiologics have died under mysterious circumstances in the last couple of years. (Google it!)

What does our government have planned for us? I'm looking at FEMA and the Patriot Act in a whole new light. What happened to our constitution and our Bill of Rights? Most people are only too happy to tune in to their latest soap opera or People Magazine and zone out. Don't want to know...don't care..just leave me alone...attitudes.

Americans have to get involved and read what's really going on regarding globalism. And not from the corporate owned publications or watching the corporate owned networks but by reading independent books and watching independent films. Then do your own homework. This is the only way people will come out of their stupors and start asking important questions.

Cynic that I am, I doubt this will happen and we will watch the world disintegrate. The next war will be Iran. Why? Read the book!

THE MOST IMPORTANT BOOK ON 9/11 IN PRINT February 11, 2007
19 out of 21 found this review helpful

Michael Ruppert was fully conscious that 9/11 was aided and abetted by insiders in our government on the day the towers went down. His work tracking corruption in our government since the 1970's put him in a position to track all the inside workings needed to present a jury ready case against the Bush administration. This book is a must read. If the United States has any hope of returning to it's original Constitutional Government, the people have to know what is really happening. Ruppert knows how the corruption works and he has laid out just how low our leaders will go to maintain the cash cow our Nation has become to them. Buy a copy of this book for everyone you know.
