Regulated Resistance : Gatekeepers of the So-Called Left

"Last February United for Peace and Justice, the largest representative coalition within the American 'anti-war movement', emerged from their second annual Assembly with a 2005 'action plan' that effectively caged the 'anti-war' debate exclusively within the Iraq conflict to achieve partisan ends on behalf of the pro-war Democratic Party and their Neoliberal corporate benefactors.

Well a few names could be mentioned here such as -

VonKleist, Jones, Icke, Hilder, Chompsky, Ruppert, Hopsicker, Jayhan, Moore, Palast, Maxwell...

Its not all bad though. A lot of information and understanding can still be gleaned from analysing all the material from the above mentioned.

Also highly recommended is
The Money Masters - themoneymasters.com
Bloodlines of the Illuminati - Fritz Springmeier - in prison
Hunter S. Thompson - if anyone can find his material on the WTC demolition
Painful Deceptions - Eric Hufschmid - erichufschmid.net
and everything from Webster G. Tarpley - tarpley.net
