How Do You Kill 11 Million People?

Author: Andy Andrews
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 0849949904
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 97

Book Description
How do you get away with the murder of 11 million people? The answer is simple—and disturbing. You lie to them. Learn how you can become an informed, passionate citizen who demands honesty and integrity from your leaders. In this nonpartisan New York Times bestselling book, Andy Andrews emphasizes that seeking and discerning the truth is of critical importance, and that believing lies is the most dangerous thing you can do. You’ll be challenged to become a more careful student of the past, seeking accurate, factual accounts of events that illuminate choices our world faces now. By considering how the Nazi German regime was able to carry out over eleven million institutional killings between 1933 and 1945, Andrews advocates for an informed population that demands honesty and integrity from its leaders and from each other. This short, thought-provoking book poses questions like: What happens to a society in which truth is absent? How are we supposed to tell the difference between the “good guys" and the “bad guys”? How does the answer to this question affect our country, families, faith, and values? Does it matter that millions of ordinary citizens aren't participating in the decisions that shape the future of our country? Which is more dangerous: politicians with ill intent, or the too-trusting population that allows such people to lead them? This is a wake-up call: we must become informed, passionate citizens or suffer the consequences of our own ignorance and apathy. We can no longer measure a leader’s worth by the yardsticks provided by the left or the right. Instead, we must use an unchanging standard: the pure, unvarnished truth.

We Don't Go Back

ISBN: 9781722748814
Category : Horror films
Languages : en
Pages : 440

Book Description
Secret, strange, dark, impure and dissonant...Enter the haunted landscapes of folk horror, a world of pagan village conspiracies, witch finders, and teenagers awakening to evil; of dark fairy tales, backwoods cults and obsolete technologies. Beginning with the classics Night of the Demon, Witchfinder General, The Wicker Man and Blood on Satan's Claw, We Don't Go Back surveys the genre of screen folk horror from across the world. Travelling from Watership Down to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, with every stop inbetween, We Don't Go Back is a thoughtful, funny and essential overview of folk horror in TV and cinema."A beautiful rumination on the dark films and television that shaped me and a generation of odd children, for good or ill, worth a year of your time, because you won't just read the book, you'll feel a burning desire to watch everything mentioned within." - Robin Ince"A comprehensive, accessible and often riotously funny tome weaving together folk horror in all its forms, from British television to the American backwoods, from Eastern European fairytales to the vengeful ghosts of East Asia. Ingham explores uncanny landscapes haunted by things buried, old cultures converging with the reluctance of contemporary reason, that very tension that gives his book its name. He attempts to both define folk horror and free it from definition, creating the ultimate guide to the genre's manifestations on film and offering a convincing argument as to why the genre resonates so compellingly with people today." - Kier-La Janisse, author of House of Psychotic Women

Book Description
This is not the same as the dozens of books on the Clinton Death List. I know every one of them say that, but this book looks for truths by investigation of the elements behind the events and how they affected our Country. In this book we will review some of the most important elements like the Inslaw Scandal, the Mena, Arkansas Drug Cartel, the October Surprise, the BCCI money Laundering, the Clipper spy chip and Skipjack, the PROMIS tracking program, Clinton's ADFA Financial Authority and its significance, the connection of the Clintons to ARKLA and that mess. We will also look at Systematics and their part and the Clipper chip decryption to find out why things were done rather than simply making a list.If you think that Democrat side or Republican side have more fault in this cancer, you will begin to see more about reality than before. If you still believe Vince Foster died because of Whitewater, you will find it doesn't begin to explain what happened and Ron Brown's plane crash is reviewed to see if things were on the up and up there as well. With 11 questionable plane crashes in 4 years, one has to wonder. IF you think that George HW Bush had nothing to do with all of this, you will, hopefully, have your eyes opened and begin to see things with more clarity.
