This is the top secret manual said to be found by accident in 1986 by an employee of Boeing Aircraft. He bought a surplus IBM copier for scrap parts at a government sale and found the manual inside. The manual outlines a plan to control the masses through manipulation of industry, education and politics, and to divert the public's attention from what is really going on. Surprisingly, it is claimed that much of what is outlined has come to pass, and makes interesting reading for those exploring the deeper levels of our social structure and how it may be controlled or influenced. This Book Tree edition includes all of the important charts and diagrams not seen in other versions. It is an exact replica of the original, aside from some minor alterations to correct print quality. Found in this edition only is a new, four-page Introduction. It explains why we may never be certain of the true origin of this document, despite the fact that someone has stepped forward and claimed that they assembled it from multiple sources.
The true story of the greatest conspiracy in US history--and how to fight back.
Have you ever seen a baby pigeon? You haven't, have you? No one has, not in many, many years. They used to be everywhere. You couldn't walk out of your front door in New York City in the 1930s without seeing dozens of those little guys scurrying around. Today, there are millions of grown up pigeons in New York, but not a baby pigeon to be seen. That's because they come out of the factory as adults.
In this thoughtful, moving, and well-written book, Dan Ariely narrates his personal and professional journey to understand the world of misbelievers and conspiracy theories, and offers insights and tips that will hopefully help all of us protect our fragile social fabric from being torn apart by disinformation and distrust.--Yuval Harari, bestselling author of Sapiens
Misbelief is an urgent examination of the human attraction to misinformation. This timely book can provide a crucial foundation for building a more empathetic and informed society.--Daniel H. Pink, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Power of Regret
The renowned social scientist, professor, and bestselling author of Predictably Irrational delivers his most urgent and compelling book--an eye-opening exploration of the human side of the misinformation crisis--examining what drives otherwise rational people to adopt deeply irrational beliefs.
Misinformation affects all of us on a daily basis--from social media to larger political challenges, from casual conversations in supermarkets, to even our closest relationships. While we recognize the dangers that misinformation poses, the problem is complex--far beyond what policing social media alone can achieve--and too often our limited solutions are shaped by partisan politics and individual interpretations of truth.
In Misbelief, preeminent social scientist Dan Ariely argues that to understand the irrational appeal of misinformation, we must first understand the behavior of misbelief--the psychological and social journey that leads people to mistrust accepted truths, entertain alternative facts, and even embrace full-blown conspiracy theories. Misinformation, it turns out, appeals to something innate in all of us--on the right and the left--and it is only by understanding this psychology that we can blunt its effects. Grounded in years of study as well as Ariely's own experience as a target of disinformation, Misbelief is an eye-opening and comprehensive analysis of the psychological drivers that cause otherwise rational people to adopt deeply irrational beliefs. Utilizing the latest research, Ariely reveals the key elements--emotional, cognitive, personality, and social--that drive people down the funnel of false information and mistrust, showing how under the right circumstances, anyone can become a misbeliever.
Yet Ariely also offers hope. Even as advanced artificial intelligence has become capable of generating convincing fake news stories at an unprecedented scale, he shows that awareness of these forces fueling misbelief make us, as individuals and as a society, more resilient to its allure. Combating misbelief requires a strategy rooted not in conflict, but in empathy. The sooner we recognize that misbelief is above all else a human problem, the sooner we can become the solution ourselves.

At 12.16am on Wednesday, June 5, 1968, Senator Robert F. Kennedy was shot and mortally wounded in the kitchen service pantry of the Ambassador Hotel, Los Angeles. A little over 24 hours later, he was pronounced dead.
A 24-year-old Palestinian immigrant, Sirhan Bishara Sirhan, was captured in the pantry with a smoking gun in his hand. Eyewitnesses had seen him step out in front of Kennedy and begin shooting with a small calibre revolver. In April 1969, Sirhan was convicted of Robert Kennedy's murder and the wounding of five others. He was sentenced to death, later commuted to life imprisonment. He has been in prison - often in solitary confinement - ever since.
The Assassination of Robert F. Kennedy is the result of more than 25 years' painstaking forensic work that challenges some of the assumptions and conclusions around the murder. The authors have scrutinised more than 100,000 official documents, located previously unknown recordings, and conducted original new interviews with key figures in the case.
They show that Sirhan could not have fired the fatal bullets, reveal detailed evidence of a murderous conspiracy involving organised crime, and disclose CIA documents detailing successful experiments to create a hypno-programmed political assassin. The book also unmasks the likely identity of one of the most enduring mysteries in the case - the infamous 'Girl in the Polka Dot Dress'.
UFOs do not exist are not the words of the author, but of government authorities. The evidence revealed here should once and for all expose this long standing lie. Are alien beings capable of abducting humans and implanting objects into our bodies that we do not know about? The evidence is the implants themselves - tiny metallic objects of unusual composition, surgically removed from people who have claimed to have histories of alien abduction. Presented here is the most advanced research on the reality of alien implants, coming directly from eminent scientists. The author, an actual doctor, had originally thought such implants were nothing more than a joke - until he found the evidence. Since doing so, Roger Leir has been the only person to share these other-worldly objects with both scientists and the general public. Thousands of suspected pieces of alien craft, soil samples and trace landing evidence have been tested, but none have revealed scientific proof indicating off-world origin. For the first time, revealed in this book, scientists have made legitimate off-world claims and proven it. Also covers worldwide sightings, what they mean, and the latest findings surrounding the amazing 1996 Varginha, Brazil crash case, where the author has traveled to investigate first-hand. Includes a Foreword by Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell, who describes what it's like to set foot on another celestial body, and shares opinions on intelligent life in the universe. This book takes the next step in the study of other life forms that may be visiting our earth and leaving evidence. From the Foreword, Edgar Mitchell says, In spite of denials and serious efforts by many governments to deny, the evidence has continued to mount for alien presence and activities. The learned and intelligent citizenry is becoming convinced that, indeed, our Earth is being visited by an advanced technological species. Concerning Dr. Leir's discovery of implants in humans, the TV documentary Unsealed: Alien Files stated, With multiple labs confirming the objects are extraterrestrial, the only question that remains is: What's the ultimate purpose of these implants? This groundbreaking book is a must for those seeking the answers.
The Opium Wars of 1840-1860 were dark chapters of history. Britain went to war to force China to import thousands of tons of opium, to cripple and impoverish that nation.
The Opium Wars never really ended. The U.S., like China, was too great for the London money lords to occupy by force. One way America is being brought to heel is by the drug trade.
Crime and other social problems in the U.S. and Mexico are massively influenced by drugs and drug dealing.
Illicit drugs may now account for as much as $1 trillion annually in financing for criminal activity and corruption.
TOPICS:
The East India Company; British role in the drug trade, from the wars on China, the HongShanghai Bank, Bronfmans, Prohibition, and Organized Crime in the U.S. Financial derivatives; Wall St., money laundering; medical marijuana. decriminalization; Soros and IMF links to drugs. Afghan opium; Colombian cartel; terrorism. Russia targeted by Dope, Inc. cocaine, heroin, amphetamines.
More than 30 years have passed since the first edition of Dope, Inc. was published, in 1978.
Commissioned by Lyndon Larouche, it threatened the world's power structure. It became America's underground best-seller.
Dope, Inc. drew the line between American patriots and the British apparatus destroying the USA.
The London and Wall Street bankers ran for cover. A mammoth campaign of slander and government dirty tricks tried to bury the authors, because Dope, Inc. revealed the most deeply held secrets of the big names behind the world's illegal narcotics trade.
In Venezuela, the leading drug-running families who were exposed in the Spanish-language version, Narcotrafico, S.A., used their political influence to have it banned and confiscated.
Financiers scrambled to control the damage of this unprecedented exposure.
The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation was denied a license in New York State because it failed to refute the charges in Dope, Inc, when the state demanded accounting of its hidden profits, silent subsidiaries, and paraphernalia of money-laundering.
Now in 2010, Dope, Inc. is completely updated: Soros - Afghanistan - the government and bankers behind the cartels.
Today the British-controlled dope trade finances the world's leading terrorist entities - Afghanistan's Taliban, the Chechen rebels, the FARC guerrillas of Colombia.
Dope money supports the bankrupt world financial system. A trillion dollars goes through the Cayman Islands, the Isle of Man, Dubai. Speculation makes it trillions more. It sucks the blood of the real economy; and the dope destroys mankind's powers of reason.
Throw out everything you think you know about history. Close the approved textbooks, turn off the corporate mass media, and whatever you do, don't believe anything you hear from the government. The Rise of the Fourth Reich reveals the truth about American power.
In this explosive exposé, the legendary Jim Marrs explores the frighteningly real possibility that today, in the United States, an insidious ideology thought to have been vanquished more than a half century ago is actually flourishing. At the end of World War II, ranking Nazis, along with their young and fanatical protégés, used the loot of Europe to create corporate front companies in many countries, worming their way into corporate America. They brought with them miraculous weapons technology that helped win the space race. But they also brought their Nazi philosophy based on the authoritarian premise that the end justifies the means--including unprovoked wars of aggression and curtailment of individual liberties--which has since gained an iron hold in the land of the free.
Jim Marrs has gathered compelling evidence of the effort that has been under way for the past sixty years to bring a form of National Socialism to modern America, creating in essence a new empire-or Fourth Reich!
The general conclusion is that The Protocols of the Elders of Zion is a fraudulent fiction, but its impact and effect in the early part of the 1900s was unquestionably real. Originating in Russia, it landed in the English-speaking world where it caused great consternation. Much is made of German anti-semitism, but in fact, there was fertile soil for The Protocols across Europe and even in America. In the United States, Henry Ford put his weight behind distributing the book.
One of the disturbing elements of the manuscript is that, setting aside the role the Jews are said to play in the unfolding of affairs, there is a great deal described in the book that has come about. It is probably this fact that has kept The Protocols in the public eye. The question seems to be: If it is not the Jews who brought this about, then who? Considering the Russian source and what was soon to befall Russia, perhaps the most obvious candidate are the Marxists, with the Protocols being an attempt to deflect attention away from themselves. Perhaps the Protocols were not the minutes of a meeting of Zionists, but rather the minutes of a Bolshevik party meeting. Maybe, some day we will know for sure. In the meantime, for sheer historical value, The Protocols is essential reading.
