Pages : 213
Book Description
The Hidden Face of Terrorism raises serious questions about the contentions of self-anointed terrorist experts that populate orthodox academia. From ancient Rome to the WTC, Paul Collins presents largely ignored or understated facts to show that the majority of terrorist acts throughout history have been state- sponsored enterprises. In turn, the national governments that sponsor terrorism are merely implementation instruments of a criminal elite suffering from Olympian delirium. The final objective of this ruling class conspiracy is the completion of an enormous social engineering project, the outcome of which could hold serious ramifications for human civilization as we know it.

Book Description
“Thanks to this gripping new book … we know more about how they do it. And it’s even more shocking than you think.” —The Independent When most people think of the drama of global finance, they think of stocks and bonds, venture capital, high-tech IPOs, and complex mortgage-backed securities. But commodities? Crude oil and soybeans? Copper and wheat? What could be more boring? That’s exactly what the elite commodity traders want you to think. They don’t seek the media spotlight. They don’t want to be as famous as Warren Buffett or Bill Gross. Their astonishing wealth was created in near-total obscurity, either in closely held private companies or deep within large banks and corporations, where commodity profits and losses weren’t broken out. Now Kate Kelly, the bestselling author of Street Fighters, takes us inside this secretive inner circle that controls so many things we all depend on. She gets closer than any previous reporter to understanding these whip-smart, aggressive, and often egomaniacal men who bet millions every day on a blend of facts, analysis, and pure gut instinct.

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 254
Book Description
The disease of alcohol and drug addiction affects millions of people-some of whom are willing to acknowledge their addiction and therefore seek recovery. The nature of the disease is so crippling that the individual has to either find recovery or else be left with two dreadful options: physical and mental instability or death. ABC Club-End of an Era describes the history of a safe place where recovering addicts and alcoholics lived while pursuing sobriety, and it focuses on the many interactions and idiosyncrasies of each personality with interviews and other first-hand accounts. Two people operated the treatment center for over thirty-five years, Danny and Helen Leahy-a crusty, down to earth, no-nonsense man and a beautiful, soft, warm and gentle woman. The result was that these two very different people with their different personalities were able to have countless numbers of people utilize recovery and thus learn about a new way of life at the ABC Club.
