This explosive tour de force by former Senate Finance Committee counsel Jeff Gates will rattle the bones of Washington's political establishment as never before. With meticulous analysis, Gates' non-partisan straight talk presents a fearless and unparalleled expose of rampant deceit, corruption and treason infecting the American body politic for many decades. His account of Israel's 1967 two-hour attack on the USS Liberty that killed 34 sailors and wounded 172 and the cancellation of the Navy's rescue of the ship by President Johnson while the ship was under attack will shock every American. Anyone concerned with America's future will treasure this book.

A stunning look at the entrenched corruption of the American political system, which has enabled a secretive "Israel First" alliance to take control of US political life. Through the media, in academic life, in popular culture and in politics, this treasonous group has taken control of US foreign policy, and has been able to deceive the public into waging war for the Zionist state.

This book contains so much amazing detail that it takes a while to absorb it all. The author's background gives him credibility, and the connections between the political class, organized crime, corporate media and Israeli connections are well researched.

What a blockbuster movie this would make- is there any producer capable of tackling this information accurately?

Before this book, you've made uninformed choices. Key pieces of data have been missing (covered up, really). Despite personal danger, the author is revealing a con of epic proportions. See for yourself.
I've read nothing like it. If it reads like a tirade, that's because it is: a torrent of facts hitting the reader in the face. Call it a rude awakening. However, let's not delude ourselves, this exposes facts we've always had a hunch were true. Now, we finally snatch this away from the conspiracy theorists and present the facts. Mr. Gates has written an academic analysis that puts into context all those random bits of information you've undoubtedly read about over the internet or heard on the radio. With inescapable documentation, this book shines a light on the dirty dealings in the White House. If enough people read it, then we'll be able to say, "never again"; never again because once the truth is transparent, further attempts at obscuring reality become laughable, an old ploy. We wouldn't fall for a Hitler right now, yet the sly politicians are using the same tactics and the same words (in English) he used. Something can be done about it.
So when would be the best time to educate yourself about what's really going on? There's such a thing as the Freedom of Information Act. It gives us the right to know and make informed choices. With an election now behind us, it's never to late to cry out for an impeachment, should our leaders plunder our lives. After all, Thomas Jefferson said so in the Declaration of Independence. What would he have recommended?
My review is but my opinion. But things are NEVER too late.
Buy this book, read it, think about the facts, make informed decisions now.

Gutsy Work
It is really sad to read about people living in one country and having their loyalty to another. The question that lingers while reading "Guilt by Association" is why? I think Jeff Gates names a lot of people in his book and a lot of facts to support a viable theory that "restoration of the Kingdom of David and Solomon" is behind most of the ills of the world. As an American, I would love to see the implementation of his recommendations in the final chapter to question several prominent figures about their actions and the motive behind such actions. I doubt these will be considered anytime soon. But this book was definitely written by a courageous man who loves his country.

It is reassuring to find the history of Zionist influence and control of American and western Politics written and explained to help us understand how the current situation in the middle east got to where it is. In the end, to be a Zionist or a supporter of Zionism will be no more honorable than to be a Nazi or a Nazi supporter. The Zionist control over western politics will be ended, and this illuminating book is an excellent help for this end. Guilt by Association: How Deception and Self-Deceit Took America to War

This book is absolutely the most significent book I've ever read. Anyone who is interested in the current times as well as history should read it.

Writing a review simply can not do justice to this book. Read it for yourself and prepare to have the curtain lifted on years of deceit and corruption.

To the reader - "Guilt's" content is vitally important to back-check, browse, discuss, read, retain, share, understand, but certainly not to dismiss as a diatribe or fiction.

The reader will learn in "Guilt" how to distinguish the difference between what can be proven (the facts) versus what can be dismissed as conspiracy. "Guilt by Association" unravels the threads of belief down to the core science behind every conspiracy theory. Why? These are simple truths that for six decades have been disclosed from the misinformed American public sector; these are simple truths, yet too complex to swallow all at once.

The facts evidenced in GBA are raw and each takes time to chew. Ultimately, these facts will give back to the American Public their informed choice. Once armed with the facts, we will have not only retrieved our Democratic right to informed choice, but more important we regain our capacity to informed judgment based on the facts and willingly ACT in the interest of the American people, not the interest of "the people in between."

I will be flying back to Boston to visit the downtown network of bookstores, colleges, institutions, universities to help distribute "Guilt by Association". I will also visit an internationally acclaimed professor at MIT who is among the world's respected minds in international relations, domestic/foreign policy, and economics. He endorsed GBA. If you've seen Matt Damon and Robin Williams in Good Will Hunting, you may have heard Robin Williams recommend "Manufacturing Consent" by Professor Noam Chomsky to Matt Damon's character Will.

If you have read or plan on reading any of Dr. Chomsky's work -- articles, books, scholarly journals, interviews (I recommend the book I am in the middle of, published recently in 2007, entitled What We Say Goes), his endorsement emboldens the significance of GBA at a time when one month from today on 4 November 2008, the American people go to the polls to choose our next president. As Democratic VP-Nominee Joe Biden mentioned in the VP debate: "This is the most important presidential election in the history of our United States of America."

I implore all people, not just those who decided to read this review, not just the American public but people all around the world, to educate themselves not exclusively with what is fed through the typical media sources (a.k.a. BBC, CNN - "The most trusted news in television", or The New York Times, The L.A. Times or even The Boston Globe).

The fact is that the American media today is heavily laden with an undisclosed (transparent) bias.

Yes, if we really wanted to see for ourselves, the messages (literally meaning media) we receive on a daily basis are chock full of deception tactics employed to distract the audience from the facts. The American public will watch, will listen, and most likely believe everything they hear. Most likely. Read "Manufacturing Consent" by Noam Chomsky if you doubt what has already been proven in several case studies.

Even if you already are aware that media is tainted with bias (even this review), and there is not one opinion you find worth valuing from the U.S. Media and you are aware of its commonplace deception tactics -- just the fact that hundreds of millions of Americans rely on it for everyday "facts" is enough to deploy "mental threads" that help shape consensual beliefs and then, then we put someone in office whose free election was not based on informed choice but rather imagery and misinformation.

Informed choice is our right as a citizen of a Democratic Nation to get the facts and only the facts to use informed judgment. We receive only half of the facts from what we see and listen to when we rely solely on U.S. mainstream media.

Two quick examples: Obama uses his "Change we can believe in" tactic to relate to his audience. He knows very well that no matter what happens in November, change will come - good or bad. He has successfully guided his followers/voters on a path that many believe in now, note the word BELIEVE. Then compare its definition to what his audience can define as FACT.

Well, one unknown fact that GBA proves is who actually supports Obama's "Change" campaign, who donated hundreds of millions of dollars to an agenda that Obama hides well from the public's eye. The fact is that once in office, the campaign money that got him there will help shape his presidential cabinet, his administration, and there exists a disclosed bias whether we want to "believe" in him or not.

Barack Obama is a noble Senator from the state of Illinois who demonstrates distinguished motive to help the U.S., the facts do not suggest he will be a poor commander-in-chief (that is hypothetical to consider of Obama who is young and thus susceptible to informed influence) unlike 72 year-old John McCain whose "Straight-Talk Express" is a train of façade built on solid steel tracks that lead to the demise of our American economy, domestic/foreign relations, and faithful/loyal military who still fight a war neither worth their blood nor our treasure trove of taxes.

He may be an American war hero, but so is my grandfather, Geronimo P., among hundreds of millions of decorated U.S. war veterans and servicemen.

The facts point out that Senator McCain has zero integrity, he has dishonestly framed the issues of his campaign and misinformed the American public about his elected-office experience that spans 25 years of poor judgment.

For example, while a U.S. Congressman, John McCain assisted in the mass-deployment of 1980s Reaganomics which meant deregulation of the Central Bank's oversight on Wall Street, which by the way is the reason why "the fundamentals of our economy are sound" today ( - a Senator John McCain quote recorded four weeks ago, two weeks before President Bush told the Nation that our economy is in a state of crisis).

Senators John McCain, the American war hero, and Barack Obama, the preacher for "change," each demonstrate noble motives; however, where each presumptive President of the U.S. demonstrates weakness is much like any fallible human except as U.S. Commander-in-Chief their judgment will affect more consequences and lives than any citizen could ever imagine.

Take the George W. Bush Administration for example, our President appears to have noble intent; yet he consistently decided and acted in the interest of "the few people in between" him and the American public. There are a few chosen, appointed, unelected people in the Bush Administration that have an undisclosed, transparent agenda that mired our global credibility, Federal expenditure and U.S. Military in Iraq, among many other chronicled mistakes.

On October 10, 2007, Secretary of Defense Robert Gates said this about unconventional warfare in the Information Age: "Success will be less a matter of imposing one's will and more a function of shaping behavior of friends, adversaries, and most importantly, the people in between."

"The people in between" pledge an allegiance not to the United States of America, not to the misguided American public sector; instead their allegiance remains with both a Criminal State and their criminal state of mind. "The people in between" are those that help our President make decisions each day in the Oval Office while their undisclosed intentions are not for the sake of our American Middle-Class and Lower-Class grandchildren, Iraq & Afghanistan war veterans, and soon-to-retire working class Americans fighting tooth and nail everyday to live pay check to pay check like my mother and father, but rather the "new" administration's agenda will pander to the alliance of a proven criminal state - Israel. And by associating our U.S. to the Zionist State of Israel, the U.S. (in the world's eye) is a criminal state as well.

I mentioned earlier that all media contains an undisclosed bias, and as I repeat: even this review you read has a bias. Although, this bias is one based on factual, scientific evidence and pure, raw unconditional love for the future of our grandchildren's grandchildren.

I would not be associated with GBA if I had not myself performed the necessary background check on the evidence presented in the content of the book.

If I am "guilty by association", it is because I have surrendered my right to informed choice and my right to vigilant action rooted in justice to displace unjust action. If I am "guilty by association" then I have surrendered my choice, my fight, my vote against the injustice that rapes our United States.

One last thing, no matter what - don't believe in what I may do or say or write. Look up and research the facts for yourself. Educate yourself with the facts, mind the fiction. Get back your informed choice.

The fast-globalization merger of political with financial power threatens democrasies and markets(Rogue Economics by Loretta Napoleoni). The author shows how Russia's vast natural resources were systematically looted by a predominately Ashkenazi elite(chapter 5). In fact the Russians now speak of privitization as grab-it-ization(prikhvatizatsiya), thanks to Berezovsky's blatant criminality playing a key role in markets and democracy.
He tells the reader that the U.S. economy is now being systematically hollowed out(Chapter 6) by financial forces that trace their intellectural origins to the same transnational network(read Ellen Brown's Web of Debt/google same for way out of financial rabbit hole). As the reader may know the Ashkenazim are descended from the medival Jewish communities .Often apllicable as a broad ethinicity, they became moneylenders in the 12th and 13th centuries for secular rulers. As this prefaces then, this is about a process that has been ongoing for sometime. In my opinion, it's acceleration is running at warp speed toward an international privitized, electronically globalized, currency that is being monopolized by a criminal state that has no sovereign borders, known as the BIS.
The author notes that as market freedom displaced personal freedom as a national priority, incomes stagnated and the super-rich emerged. An elite international Ashkenazi oligarchy under whose thumb will be a corporate/globalization of the economy, every country is going to have a different role. The U.S. will no longer manufacture(it's cheaper labor wise to move these overseas where corporations can maximise profits), but will export security(endless war) to benefit multinational corporations so they can continue to exract resources & cheap labor around the world.
The book homes in like a laser on how America was lied into the Iraq war on the basis of fixed intelligence and biased analyses provided by pro-Israeli neocons and their collaborators inside government and the media.
He elaborates in detail about unconditional warfare's reliance on game theory and the applications of models to anticipate the response to staged provacations. The target of a staged provacation can be a person, a company, an economy, a legislature, a nation or even an entire culture such as Islam or Chritianity. With well-executed provacation, the anticipated response of the mark can even become a weapon in the arsenal of the agent provocateur(THE World That Never Was: A True Story of Dreamers, Schemers, Anarchists, and Secret Agents by Alex Butterworth).
The sinking of the USS Liberty by the State of Israel is very shameful. It is worth the price of entry alone. Although I had read about it, the author framed it with more facts/motives that hammered home his thesis throughout: that the State of Israel is not our friend. To liberally paraphrase Dr. Kissinger/To be an enemy of Israel can be dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal.
As the author points out in 1796 George Washinton cautioned America to avoid intagling alliances, citing/the illusion of an imaginary common interest.

As the other revieweres alluded to, this fine work is information rich.

As the author points out in his introduction the reader can read the chapters seperately. My favorite was chapter 5, about the looting & plunder of Russia. The reason being, the same players are doing it to America, in plain sight.
