Crossing the Rubicon

Synopsis

The Rubicon signifies a point of no return. Peak Oil and 9/11 are two such points that signal so profound a change in the course of world events that no one will remain unaffected. The attacks of September 11, 2001 were accomplished through an amazing orchestration of logistics and personnel. Crossing the Rubicon discovers and identifies key suspects - finding some of them in the highest echelons of American government - by showing how they acted in concert to guarantee that the attacks produced the desired result. A superbly detailed scrutiny of the events of 9/11, the book also ranges across the terrain of rapidly diminishing hydrocarbon energy supplies, geopolitics, narco-traffic, intelligence and militarism - without which 9/11 cannot be understood. Crafted as a criminal investigation of a homicide, Crossing the Rubicon examines: * the motives for the 9/11 attacks, including the Pentagon's need for a pretext for war that would enable an all-out drive for the planet's last reserves of oil and gas; Wall Street's need for liquid cash from restored traffic in Afghani heroin; and the administration's need for legal domestic repression during severe and imminent resource shortages; * the personnel, including Dick Cheney, the Pakistani Intelligence Agency (ISI), the Taliban, al Qaeda, the bin Ladens and elements of the government of Saudi Arabia: * the intelligence, including covert software, the full complexity of the US intelligence community, the connections with Wall Street and the Israeli government; * the carefully designed opportunity on the day of the attacks, the role of the Secret Service and the US Vice President: * the coverup; and * the outcome: "The War on Terror" as pretext for the loss of US civil liberties and domination of world oil reserves. ...at the end of three years of conducting a really independent investigation, Ruppert is not only heading in the right direction, but also touching the inner sanctum of the hidden government agenda. --Andreas von Bulow, former German Cabinet Minister & Parliamentary Secretary MICHAEL RUPPERT is the Publisher/Editor of From the Wilderness, a newsletter read by more than 16,000 subscribers in 40 countries.
