PUBLISHER'S WEEKLY WAY OFF BASE

The Publishers Weekly Review is so apparently off base and tainted it is painfully obvious it was crafted by someone who is politically bias or has a personal axe to grind. What else could it be with the reviewer willfully making false and misleading statements that are contrary to the readily observable facts; intentionally and deceptively declaring there is no substantiated or supportive evidence of Dux claims when the proof exists and is presented in the book! Aside from Frank Dux and his book being vindicated by revealing current events, shamefully, Publisher's Weekly fails to mention that various Official Government Documents that are officially notarized by the appropriate military authority as well as a sworn notarized testimony given by a Soviet Major General Korneinko (made under penalty of perjury) corroborate Dux story. Included are Soviet Identification papers of Dux. They are all presented in the photo section of the book for anyone to examine. Substaintiated evidence that pales in comparison to the common sense fact such reference books are as a matter of professional standards and practices vetted by a publisher's (HarperCollins) lawyers long before ever being allowed to go to print. Facts and claims are routinely checked and double checked. Unlike one critic of Dux whose source is a book that is self-published and relies on sources that all stand to financially profit by discrediting Dux. At least, this is what my own independent investigation revealed. Notably, Publisher's Weekly cleverly skirts their legal exposure (libel) by stating in doing their review they did not see the photos in the book. Indeed, how could they miss them? As a direct result I feel they are not to be trusted. I have lost all faith in their integrity or at least this one reviewer. Someone dropped the ball here or made it up as they go. This is a book you should feel privileged to read if you can find it.

THE BEST READ EVER!!!

Fortunately, I don't take anything at face value. Otherwise, I would miss out on a truly enlightening and factually informative book. Some of the comments that I read after reading the book I find are out of touch with reality, not the other way around. Great read as I had anticipated would be the case back, in 1996. When you stop to consider the CIA official policy is that fiction is never in need of denial combined with the fact that if there existed no controversy surrounding this book, the author wouldn't be a CIA whistleblower, would he? Otherwise, why would a government agency feel so compelled to officially issue a statement and deny Dux's activities or Eugene Hausenfaus's or the CIA's Cuban "plumbers" role apprehended in bugging the democratic national convention, the Watergate? The systematic pattern of behavior of denying what we suspect to be true at the time proves its real in my mind. "I think, thou'st CIA does't protest it too much!" Especially, since eight years have gone by and the denials given back then were eventually found out to be lies and spin control. Any person who calls attention to them self by calling attention to abuses of power are bound to become the targets of personal attacks. This is what the intelligence community is entirely dependent upon in order to survive. What they describe as plausible deniability. No fraud or fanciful reading going on here just our government and its friends hard at work at attempting to keep us ignorant and their friends out of jail. This guy has got brass balls! Frank Dux's reveals the FBI and CIA engaging in abuses of power by their involving themselves in the political process of our free elections. Discrediting potential political candidates as well as whistle-blowers, like himself (pgs 66-69). Thankfully, someone cares enough to speak out. This book reminded me that the freedom the world enjoys today only occurred because of the willingness of the few to bend a few laws and risk imprisonment to fight and carryout this nation's secret wars, in the 1980's. Just like what is going on in Iraq, Semper Fi, my brothers! It was a great read. I find it comical that I actually came across people that will say they read the book and then will chastise it and refer you to the same sources that Dux exposes in his book that are proven to be self-admitted liars guilty of having fabricated testimony and evidence against him, or nuns, etc. Making it painfully obvious they never read the book when you embarrass them by asking please "re-read that section" and tell me what you think of that... LOL. Why are people directing people to what in reality is a self-published author that is, at least apparent to me, relying on sensationalism to sell his own book. Dux deserves to be read as he stands up to and wont be bullied by persons who wield political power for their own gain and who under the color of authority committed heinous crimes against humanity. It's no surprise to me that Gene
