Jesse Ventura tells the truth

This book is an excellent primer on some of the major political conspiracies in American history, from the Lincoln assassination to 9/11. Ventura's strong suit is avoiding the bogus conspiracy stories that have been planted to muddy the investigative waters and paint conspiracy theorists as a tinfoil hat brigade. Ventura knows those stories get planted by government spooks in the media to create straw men than can easily be torn down. Notice how we have a constant stream of "investigations" into UFOs on television, but nothing of any substance on 9/11? I was happy to see a chapter on Marine Corp. General Smedley Butler, a man who tried to blow the whistle on the Anglo-American cabal that was secretly running the country, manufacturing war for profit, only to be muzzled by Congress. Smedley should be celebrated as our greatest patriot since the Founding Fathers, instead he is virtually unknown. Another story that seldom gets told is how the Martin Luther King Jr. family won a civil case against the government for King's assassination after it was discovered two sniper teams were sent to Memphis that day, and that the bushes the sniper hid behind were immediately chopped down and removed a few hours after the shooting by police to sanitize the crime scene. Just as all the steel from the Twin Towers was disappeared as quickly as possible to sanitize that crime scene. Ventura picked one of the best researchers in the country to help him with this book, Dick Russell. Russell's book, "That Man Who Knew Too Much," is probably the best book ever written about the JFK assassination.

GOD HELP US ALL !!!

Excellent book, and only for those void of any permanent brand of ideology. Ironic, considering Ventura himself seems to have an immovable ideology. But I like him. One must be able to think outside the box to digest this book. I found it utterly satisfying in every way. If you like Mr. Ventura on television, when he's successfully dismantling figures on the Right and Left in one single setting, you'll enjoy this book. There are only a select few politicians who are willing to call a spade a spade and Ventura has always been one of those people. Whether or not you believe the government may have been directly involved in 9/11 is your prerogative. But it's possibilities like this that Mr. Ventura is able to make us wonder about, and he does so quite effectively. I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but he has me thinking about becoming one. The book makes you believe that what previously seemed like the impossible could actually be ... well ... possible! Very few books make you reevaluate what you previously swore to be true. I recently read a powerful book: 71 Days: The Media Assault On Obama, and I have a permanent disdain for the 21st Century media as a result. I actually already had a strong disdain, but that book still shocked me. It laid out convincing evidence that the falsely-called "Left Wing Media" was conspiring against the then candidate Obama. But once he won they rolled out the red carpet for him. Extraordinary read! And I feel the same way about "American Conspiracies." Ventura has managed to maintain that "everyman" persona that he carried to the governorship of Minnesota and deliver a detailed book that will be studied for years to come. A must read!

Simply eye-opening

This book simply is eye-opening. The conclusion that I get is that we can't trust the government and what is told and taught is not at all the reality. The research done for the book is outstanding and other than his opinions, they are mostly all government documents and well-reserched material. Looking at some of the unfounded and idiotic bad reviews on this book, I ask - Why is it easy to see corruption in countries like China, Russia, Venezuela, North Korea, and Cuba, but so hard to see the corruption in America? I believe it's because of so much brain-washing in Media, Education, and politics and while I love this country dearly, before we realized, we have become a near-fascist country.

"No-Holds-Barred" & Takes-No-Prisoners

STOLEN ELECTIONS, 9/11 COVER-UP, SANCTIONED DRUG-SMUGGLING, JFK, RFK, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. - and lots more. This book covers it all in a thoroughly enjoyable way as JESSE VENTURA & DICK RUSSELL team up again and spell it out loud & clear in their patented Let's-cut-through-the-b.s. style. Think of it as a primer on what's really been happening in America -- written by someone just like you -- too sharp to swallow the "official version" that's been force-fed to us from our so-called leaders and then reinforced by mainstream media. And they have a news-flash for mainstream media -- If it's What Really Happened then it's not "revisionist history" -- it's What Really Happened. So -- Buy it, Read it, Lend it, Talk to people about it -- it's important and very timely.
