THE SECRET ARMY OF THE ELITE
PRESIDENT HARRY S. TRUMAN WORSHIPED ALLAH>AMERICAN CONSTITUTION SHREDDED IN 1947:The 33rd President of America and a 33rd Degree SHRINER Freemason, Harry S. Truman, signed into law, THE NATIONAL SECURITY ACT, 1947 and created the CIA.Most Americans are IGNORANT of what this Act contains and foolishly think the CONSTITUTION is still on the books. Only once since 1947 has the Secret Government been challenged and that was done by JFK, during the CUBAN CRISIS, but he paid with his life.PRESIDENT HARRY S TRUMANHarry S. Truman was a 33rd SHRINER Freemason & this is the oath he took: Candidates for induction into the Shriners are greeted by a High Priest, who says:“By the existence of Allah and the creed of Mohammed; by the legendary sanctity of our Tabernacle at Mecca, we greet you.” The inductees then swear on the Bible and the Koran, in the name of Mohammed, and invoke Masonry's usual gruesome penalties upon themselves: “I do hereby, upon this Bible, and on the mysterious legend of the Koran, and its dedication to the Mohammedan faith, promise and swear and vow … that I will never reveal any secret part or portion whatsoever of the ceremonies … and now upon this sacred book, by the sincerity of a Moslem's oath I here register this irrevocable vow … in willful violation whereof may I incur the fearful penalty of having my eyeballs pierced to the center with a three-edged blade, my feet flayed and I be forced to walk the hot sands upon the sterile shores of the Red Sea until the flaming sun shall strike me with livid plague, and may Allah, the god of Arab, Moslem and Mohammedan, the god of our fathers, support me to the entire fulfillment of the same. Amen. Amen. Amen."

A crucial tool to understanding present reality. An absolute must read.
Run, don’t walk, and get yourself a copy of this book. The author has been warning us for decades about the clear and present danger that is the CIA. I was unaware of Valentine’s work for most of those years, perhaps because our media outlets (even the “anti-establishment” ones like Democracy Now and The Intercept) have been compromised. Valentine’s work has been suppressed since his ground-breaking book on the Phoenix Program.Not that I didn’t know anything about the sordid history. I knew about MK-Ultra, some of the agency’s drug running and empire-building exploits. This work goes much deeper and paints a much bigger picture. The extent of the agency’s influence is much greater than I had imagined.This is not another history book about dirty tricks. It is not just about our insane foreign policy and empire building. The cancer of corruption, of outright crime, has metastasized into every agency of the government right here in the US itself. Those dirty tricks and crimes have become domestic policy- in fusion centers and Homeland Security, in the militarization of local police and in Congress, from Wall Street to Main Street. Border Patrol, the DEA, Justice and State have all been compromised. Want to know why the DEA is losing the war on drugs, how torture has become policy? Want to know why the government no longer represents your interests? Look no further.The problem is now. We are the new targets.Read it and weep, but for God’s sake, please read it.A highly informative and comprehensive book, and a scathing, fearless indictment of government corruption.I cannot overstate it's importance.

Scary...
This book is not for the faint of heart. It's for hardcore political junkies only. You read this, shake your head, and wonder, how the heck have they managed to get away with this sort of "stuff"? This is the United States of America, fer cryin' out loud! We're supposed to be the good guys! Well, they have gotten away with it and they'll continue to do so. With only nominal oversight, these people are free to do whatever they wish to do. There's a complete absence of ethics and morality. This book also helps explain how America can function with a severely weakened Executive branch and a disfunctional Congress that does nothing for anyone but themselves. Who's actually running the store? As a world leader recently observed, "the American President has no power. It's the guys in the black suits who control things." Read this and you'll understand what he was talking about...

An Essential Addition to an Essential Body of Work
Of the extraordinarily valuable and informative works for which Mr. Valentine is responsible, his latest, CIA As Organized Crime, may prove to be the best choice as an introduction to the dark realm of America's hidden corruptions and their consequences at home and around the world. This new volume begins with the unlikely but irrevocable framework by which Mr. Valentine's path led to unprecedented access to key Agency personnel whose witting participation is summarized by the chapter title: "How William Colby Gave Me the Keys to the CIA Kingdom."By illuminating CIA programs and systems of surveillance, control, and assassination utilized against the civilian population of South Vietnam, we are presented with parallels with operations and practices at work today in America's seemingly perpetual war against terror.Through the policies of covert infiltration and manipulations, illegal alliances, and "brute force" interventions that wreak havoc on designated enemy states, destroy progress and infrastructure under the claim of liberation, degrade the standards of living for people in the perceived hostile nations, "...America's ruling elite empowers itself while claiming it has ensured the safety and prestige of the American people. Sometimes it is even able to convince the public that its criminal actions are 'humanitarian' and designed to liberate the people in nations it destroys."Mr. Valentine has presented us with a major body of work which includes: The Strength of the Wolf; The Strength of the Pack; The Pheonix Program, to which we may now add The CIA as Organized Crime, and for which we are profoundly indebted.

The Truth At Last
This is a must-read for every American. What they teach kiddies in civics class creates a false impression. Adults must look behind the curtain to see what really goes on.

Essential to the understanding of US world and domestic politics
Following the highest ideal of the American Project - political enlightenement + emancipation - the author gives the reader a deep insight into one of its darkest present day manifestations.The singular value of this book is that it contains comprehensive information about mindset, methods, organisation + ethics (warped as they may be) of this organisation and provides a framework to connect the various incidents that have come to light on occasion. It shows that allegations against the CIA like assassination, drug smuggling, cooperation with organized crime are not only true and possibly the result of a mislead agent, but intrinsic and standard operating procedure to the organisation since its first beginnings up to the present day. Thus it provides a most insightful - if chilling picture - of this (sometimes not so) hidden stick the US uses in foreign and domestic politics according to the old motto of Teddy Roosevelt - “Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far.”.For the politically interested non US-citizen this book is essential to understand how the hidden side of US foreign politics work.For the US citizen who loves his country this is strong but very healthy medicine - for one as the methods that have been previously used on unruly foreigners are incereasingly applied to domestic dissenters (homeland security + patriot act) and also it will explain to the open minded the feelings of resentment and hate that are felt in many countries of the world towards the US, as of course the CIAs actions are alway carried out "in the name of the American People" - and so determine to a considerable extent the view the victims of those actions have of the US and its citizens.The good news is, that there are still true heroes like Douglas Valentine, who keep the flag of of democracy and freedom flying. My heartfelt thanks to him for his courage to publish this book.
