MCCLELLAND STEWART

Crima and Cover-up is a small masterpiece which renders understandable a Byzantine picture of internecine rivalries within government agencies and intelligence apparatus, and the whole shabby interlinkage of conspiracy within conspiracies.

Peter Dale Scott has written extensively on the Kennedy assassination and other dark corners of the American political scene. His encyclopedic knowledge enables him to connect the dots among the players, the organizations, and the unacknowledged collusions - the deep politics - of our often troubled political system. Deep Politics II narrows the focus of Scott's earlier Deep Politics and the Death of JFK; more than half the book is taken up with the most detailed treatment yet of the mysterious sojourn of Lee Harvey Oswald, or someone using his name, to Mexico City in the fall of 1963. It is now known that allegations of communist conspiracy in the wake of the JFK assassination, emanating mostly from Mexico City, caused Lyndon Johnson to put together a "blue ribbon commission" to "lay the dust" of Dallas. LBJ told Warren Commissioner Richard Russell that "we've got to take this out of the arena where they're testifying that Khruschev and Castro did this and did that and kicking us into a war that can kill 40 million Americans in an hour."If, as Peter Scott's analysis suggests, the evidence from Mexico City was part of a frame-up, then this puts a whole new light on the "communist conspiracy" allegations.

First published in 1972, this edition of THE WAR CONSPIRACY is fully updated for 2008, and includes two lengthy additional essays, one on the transition in Vietnam policy in the wake of the Kennedy assassination, and the other discussing the many parallels between that 1963 event and the attacks of 9/11/01. Scott examines the many ways in which war policy has been driven by "accidents" and other events in the field, in some cases despite moves toward peace being directed by presidents. This book explores the "deep politics" which exerts a profound but too-little understood effect on national policy outside the control of traditional democratic processes.

"Our most provocative scholar of American power" reveals the forces behind the assassination of JFK—and their continuing influence over our world (David Talbot, Salon).
On November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was gunned down in Dallas by Lee Harvey Oswald. Shortly after, Oswald himself was killed. These events led many to believe there was a far greater plan at work, with a secret cabal of powerful men manipulating the public and shaping US policies both at home and abroad for their own interests.
But no one could imagine how right they were.
Beneath the orderly façade of the American government, there lies a complex network, only partly structural, linking Wall Street influence, corrupt bureaucracy, and the military-industrial complex. Here lies the true power of the American empire. This behind-the-scenes web is unelected, unaccountable, and immune to popular resistance. Peter Dale Scott calls this entity the deep state, and he has made it his life's work to write the history of those who manipulate our government from the shadows. Since the aftermath of World War II, the deep state's power has grown unchecked, and nowhere has it been more apparent than that day at Dealey Plaza.
In this landmark volume, Scott traces how culpable elements in the CIA and FBI helped prepare for the assassination, and how the deep state continues to influence our politics today.
As timely and important as ever in the current chaotic political climate, Dallas '63 is a reality-shattering, frightening exposé not of those who govern us—but of those who govern those who govern us.
