I don't know if it's the same book you're talking about, but you might want to check out "THE TURNER DIARIES", by Andrew MacDonald, along with its sequel, "HUNTER".\n\nThere is a third book in the series, "SERPENT'S WALK", but I've not read it.\n\nI really enjoyed "THE TURNER DIARIES" and "HUNTER".\n\nThere have also been several other books written about survival and apocalyptic scenarios.\n\nI remember one about a group of modern day Mormons struggling to get from North Carolina to Utah, on foot (because there was no gasoline) and being hunted and killed by local "Christians".\n\nBut, I don't remember the name of the book.\n\nThere were also some comic books about the same subject, but I don't know where you'd find them now.\n\nAt the time (many years ago), the comic strips were published in "SOLDIER OF FORTUNE" magazine and "SURVIVAL" magazine.\n\nI think "SURVIVAL" magazine is no longer published, but you can still subscribe to "SOLDIER OF FORTUNE", which has a web site.

This sounds vaguely like the conspiracy theories offered by American neo-nazis, except substitute "black" for "christian".\n\nNo, I don't buy it. There's:\n\na) Not enough correlation between Jews and CHristians\nb) Not enough correlation between Christians and military\nc) Many other reasons for the fighting.

well Nazi's and the Nat's (the apartheid government of the time) were both interested in seperating the citizens according to race/culture. Both used violent methods to do so. Both had an ideology of seperating the races in order to "protect" a certain race. Oh and neither worked in the end.

The book is actually called "Behold a Pale Horse."  You can buy it at any major bookstore, and probably some not-so-major ones as well.  It was written by someone in the intel community from what I recall.  I'm not sure, though, as it has been a long time since I saw the book.

Really?  I didn't read much of the Patriot Acts, but it didn't seem to me that any of it was a science fiction narrative.  Now it might LEAD us to a world not unlike 1984, but that's not the same thing as a set of laws resembling a novel.  No, the Patriot Acts are far less interesting to read - almost painful to try and figure out what they are saying sometimes...

Actually it's about the mass murder of native Americans by early settlers. \n\nTurkey anyone?

wasn't it something like whether people are truly rascist in their hearts and it was dangerous to ask because you might not want to know the answer or something? its been a while since i read that book...its one of my favorites though.

I know of a story that is not so unlike yours.\n\nYou are so totally right. The United States government is not all that it says it is.

I read the book myself about 5 years ago at school. Its all metaphors and political commentary. The link below will provide all the information you could need.\n\nAs to the above answer "do a google", you will find the 95% of the questions on here coud be solved quicker are more effectivly with a google search by the user.

If we look to the current government in Germany, we see a something amazing taking place.  The Neo-Nazi political structure is gaining more ground with every election that takes place.  The last time I heard, the German political arena had 10% of its representatives under the Neo-Nazi party.  Why is this taking place, this day in age in Germany?  One answer, the people know that the Neo-Nazis in power will work to pass harder sanctions against the large influx of Middle Eastern immigrants coming into the Country.  These middle easterners are seen as a threat for increased chance of terrorism to take hold and shatter their way of life.  So, I guess if you are German, and afraid of losing a grip on your way of life the answer would be to join and support the Neo-Nazi party.\n\nHowever, in America, the idea of being a "Nazi" is nothing more than a representation of the ignorance within.  People who "claim" to be Nazi are just angry punks, wearing combat boots, beating up people who are "different" from them, but who don't wear the fancy robes that the Klan wear. \n\nIn both cases listed above, I think if you are a scared individual who still believes that people should be divided into different "races", and that you are in some way (insert laugh here) superior to those other "races" then by all means get yourself a pair of combat boots and call yourself a Nazi....

Haven't read it in a while, but without having the book with me, I'd say books in general are classified information. Since nobody is allowed access to them, they are the uber-classified stuff. But hopefully someone has the book and might find a specific example.

Try cia.com,  I think it has that kind of stuff in it.

This is a tough one!  It looks as if this volume wasn't widely reviewed.  I search and searched using the ABELL (The Annual Bibliography of English Language and Literature) and couldn't even find one of the review that I knew existed.  This is probably because the citation below includes the Rock book in a comparative review with several other books.  You have probably already come across The New York Review of Books review by Gordon Craig "Making way for Hitler" in Volume 36, Number 15 · October 12, 1989.\n\nYou probably also found the review by Alex Danchev in Reviews in American History © 1990 The Johns Hopkins University Press titled "Tiger Shooting Together: The Grand Alliance in Embryo." It can be found online at http://www.jstor.org/view/00487511/dm980069/98p0096z/0.\n\nThe Rock volume was written in the waining years of the cold war and there is no doubt that the author will show influence and bias based on this context.  This is true for all historical periods and the impact that current thinking has on historical analysis.  Go with you gut and call the author on the bias just be sure to put his thoughts in the appropriate historical context.  We have the benefit of 20 years of hindsight since the writing of this volume.  Not to mention that Rock appears to have been at his prime 20 or 30 years before this book.\n\nGood luck!

Looks like a NEO_CON Union Meeting in here? I think they should be reported for assembling don't you H-I-B. (SS) rules of engagement don't you know. Some of the Republicans really stepped off with Ports to the Enemy deal, and I loved it. Flip-Flopping off of the NAZI side is happening everyday now. Vote them out in November, and free America from these Tyrants!

Well, heck, if you like Ellis' work, then Invincible Iron Man is for you.  But then again, Transmetropolitan is one heck of a book...\n\nMy recommendations would be Garth Ennis' Preacher, Dave Sim's Cerebus, Jeff Smith's Bone, Neil Gaiman's Sandman to name a few... But those are mostly indie stuff that you may already know about.\n\nWith that in mind, I am assuming that you want to read about superheroes with quite a bit of depth to them - no shallow cookie cutter stuff for you!\n\nHow about The Powers, Violent Messiahs, Noble Causes, and heck, even Batman, Spiderman, X-men are quite good titles, as they involve well-fleshed out characters.  I'd suggest the Ultimate line with the two Marvel lines, and perhaps someone could add a good series for you to dive into when it comes to Batman, as I know there's a few different titles starring Wayne....

"through the use of fear, societies gave up their rights under the guise of security."  i think this statement sums up best all the uproar over what the bush administration is or isn't doing to 'protect' us as americans. there is a fine line being walked (and not very delicately if you care to notice the details) between "security" and "loss of freedom". and the culture of fear and separation noted in the article is all too apparent today... after all you're either a "patriot" or you "support the enemy". \n\n"those in power are of a smaller segment of society, but they hold the wealth and control" is an accurate description of where america is today. a minute percentage of people possess the lion's share of the wealth: the inequality has always been present but never to this degree. if this is indeed a part of the definition of fascism, you could argue that we are getting closer...\n\n"fascist nations... typically use their judiciaries to manipulate or control elections." let diebold reign! here's to florida, and to ohio, proud supporters of the winning side!\n\n"governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion...." and how often to religious leaders echo the sentiments exactly of the us government? do you watch the 700 club?\n\nwhere did the platform for intelligent discussion of the issues facing the US go? why are people (being manipulated?) becoming so polarized? where has 'the beauty of the gray' disappeared to? isn't it funny how so many things in life are suddenly black and white, like apples and oranges?\n\nif you deceive often enough and use the proper (official?) channels, one of two things will happen. they will come to believe it as gospel ("this is a delicious orange! when did they start growing stems?") or they will use the knowledge they already have to resist ("THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS!" -jean-luc picard) the lies. \n\nare you really willing to doubt that this is in fact an apple? and will we be reluctant to let go of a moniker we've worn proudly for over two centuries? stay tuned...

HAIL HITLER!!! I knew you were a Fascist. What's next killing the Pagans, the Devil Worshipers, the Unchristian and the Judeo Christians? WOW you must have big balls to suggest such a thing. I hope you don't run for office or there may be a lynching. I have one question for you? With all this hate, do you really think your name is your Gods Book?\n\nBright Blessings to all,\nCarlie
