3.0 out of 5 stars Does Circumstantial Evidence Alone Imply Conspiracy?, September 18, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Trilaterals Over America (Paperback)

This book relies heavily on rhetoric, question begging, circumstantial evidence and conjecture. It argues from a conclusion - namely that there is some grand Council of Foreign Relations (CFR) / Trilateral Commission (TC) conspiracy/plot; and then seeks to make the data confirm to that foregone conclusion.

The book certainly puts forth an interest theory; and I give the author credit for the imaginative ways he makes the data seemingly correlate with his hypothesis. But one is reminded of the old adage - figures don't lie, but liars figure. And that correlation does not imply causation.

I'm not suggesting that the author is necessarily lying. But I do think he combined and presented circumstantial evidence in ways that only beg the question about a CFR/TC conspiracy. If I were a juror, I would have to vote to acquit due to a lack of any real hard evidence.

If you already have your mind made up about a CFR/TC conspiracy, this book will tell you what you want to hear. If your mind is not already made up, I doubt very much that this book will persuade you to agree with the author's presuppositions.
