F. William Engdahl

    9 augustus 1944

    De achtergrond van deze auteur als ingenieur en econoom vormt de basis voor een unieke benadering van zijn schrijven. Zijn werk duikt vaak in complexe systemen en de wisselwerking tussen geschiedenis en economie, en biedt lezers een perspectief geworteld in analytische nauwkeurigheid. Hij onderzoekt de maatschappelijke impact van economische krachten met het scherpe observatievermogen van een journalist en het langetermijnbeeld van een historicus.

      Gods of Money is a book about power and an extraordinarily wealthy elite that has wielded unprecedented power, not for the good, but rather for the enhancement of their own private position. The book tracks the evolution of the power amassed by a tiny group of men who have regarded themselves, quite literally, as gods"€"the Gods of Money. Their agenda has included assassinations of two of America's most popular presidents; involvement of the United States against the public will in two world wars; and detonation of the world's most destructive weapon, the atomic bomb, on Japanese civilians. It has included scores of regional wars, political assassinations, coups, and systematic corruption of the body politic. The book reveals in an unusual and surprising manner how this powerful elite has systematically set out to literally control the entire world, backed by the most powerful military force the world has ever seen.

      For the faction that controls the Pentagon, the military industry and the oil industry, the Cold War never ended. It went on 'below the radar' creating a global network of bases and conflicts to advance their long-term goal of Full Spectrum Dominance, the total control of the planet: land, sea, air, space, outer space and cyberspace. Their methods included control of propaganda, use of NGOs for regime change, Color Revolutions to advance NATO east, and a vast array of psychological and economic warfare techniques, a Revolution in Military Affairs as they termed it. The events of September 11, 2001 would allow an American President to declare a war on an enemy who was everywhere and nowhere, who justified a Patriot Act that destroyed that very freedom in the name of the new worldwide War on Terror. This book gives a disturbing look at that strategy of Full Spectrum Dominance.

      "Control the oil and you control entire nations," said Kissinger. Oil is an instrument of world domination in the grip of the Anglo-American empire. This is a story about power, power over entire nations and continents. Century of War is a gripping account of the murky world of the international oil industry and its role in world politics. Scandals about oil are familiar to most of us. From George W. Bush's election victory to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, US politics and oil enjoy a controversially close relationship. William Engdahl takes the reader through a history of the oil industry's grip on the world economy. His revelations are startling. A thin red line runs through modern world history, covered in oil and blood. This book is not for the faint of heart, but for those who can see beyond the daily media manipulation of reality that is called news.

      This skillfully researched book focuses on how a small socio-political American elite seeks to establish its control over the very basis of human survival, the provision of our daily bread. Control the food and you control the people. This is no ordinary book about the perils of GMO. Engdahl takes the reader inside the corridors of power, into the backrooms of the science labs, behind closed doors in the corporate boardrooms. The author reveals a World of profit-driven political intrigue, government corruption and coercion, where genetic manipulation and the patenting of life forms are used to gain worldwide control over food production. The book is an eye-opener, a must-read for all those committed to the causes of social justice and World peace.

      Europe and the West face a social crisis as a brutal war in Syria has spread around the world. ISIS, also known as Islamic State erupted violently onto the world stage in 2014 proclaiming its aim to create a global caliphate. War and terror in Syria have created a massive refugee crisis across Europe. In autumn 2015 Russia was invited to help defeat ISIS in Syria. That Russian military action signaled a new era in global politics. Washington no longer dominated the military world. The world was ineluctably moving towards a new world war, one claiming to have religion at its core. Islam was being instrumentalised as a weapon of war, but by whom? Few asked who was behind the IS terror or Al Qaeda. For that it would be necessary look back to the 1950's and the birth of a new American intelligence agency and their ties to the secret Muslim Brotherhood. What emerges is a picture so incredible few could imagine

      China today has become a world economic giant in just three decades. The country's central bank holds more than $3.5 trillion in foreign exchange reserves, mostly in dollars. Without the Chinese colossus, the USA might have long ago gone bankrupt, unable to finance its exploding national debt. Now that China has emerged as the world's second largest economy, some powerful circles in Wall Street and Washington are alarmed that the Chinese might no longer follow the agenda, but decide for themselves what is best for China. They see China as a threat to their global power. The result is growing tension between Beijing and Washington - in the Middle East, Africa, and in Asia. Especially alarming is covert US backing of Japan in a conflict with China over remote Pacific islands. China is beginning to feel escalating hostility, and not only from the Pentagon. Open conflict between the USA and China could deal a death-blow to the fragile world economy. This book explains in clear terms what is at stake if Washington continues to try to turn the Chinese Dragon into an enemy state.

      NGOs: Největší projekt tajných služeb všech dob! Motivy NGOs znějí filantropicky a u­šlech­­tile. Mnoho motivovaných Davidů se angažuje proti mocným Goliášům, aby zlepšili svět. Avšak skutečnost vypadá zcela jinak. William Engdahl odhaluje skutečný příběh pseudodemokratických NGOs. Je to kronika jedné z nejdestruktivnějších a nejefektivnějších operací, která kdy byla tajnou službou uvedena v život. Ničivé dílo těchto NGOs: Slibují mír, lidská práva a demokracii – a co přinášejí, je válka, násilí a teror! William Engdahl ukazuje, kdo za NGOs skutečně stojí, kdo je financuje a řídí. Odhaluje, jakou roli hrají v geostrategii USA a s jak proradnými metodami pracují. Především objasňuje, v jakém rozsahu ovlivnily současné dějiny. Neboť ať už konflikt na Ukrajině, arabské jaro, válka v Sýrii nebo uprchlická krize: všech významných geopolitických událostí se rozsáhle účastnily a účastní NGOs.
