The Medusa File: Secret Crimes and Coverups of the U.S. Government
a book by Craig Roberts
(our site's book review)
Craig Roberts provides us with the results of his ten-year investigation regarding the secret crimes and coverups of the U.S. Government. Mr. Roberts has compiled multiple atrocities, cover-ups, corruption, One World Order, and conspiracies that our U.S. government has committed against U.S. citizens. His credentials are impeccable, with a keen sense that has been developed through decades of experience. If you ever read one of Roberts' many books, this is the one to open your eyes to the need of every American citizen to be involved in revamping our communities and our nation. The book exposes and discusses:
- Operation Paperclip and the smuggling of war criminals - including mass murderers - into the U.S. by the military.
- CIA and military mind-control experiments on unsuspecting citizens - including children.
- Secret drug and bacteriological weapons experiments on the American population by the CIA and the Department of Defense.
- Atomic guinea pigs, Agent Orange, and the Gulf War Syndrome.
- What really happened to over 30,000 POWs and MIAs in WWII, Korea and Vietnam - and why Russia knows.
- Where did the CIA come from - and who really controls it.
- International assassinations, drug smuggling and money laundering.
- What the media did not tell you about the shootdown of KAL-007 or the bombing of Pan Am 103.
- The real story behind the Oklahoma City bombing
- The real story behind the 1993 World Trade Center bombing
- The real story behind the shootdown of TWA 800
- The real story behind the derailment of the Sunset Limited
- and lots more . . .

Cease deluding yourself that our government or politicial superheroes are ever going to do anything to clean up their act—it is WE THE PEOPLE that must fix the U.S.
Craig Roberts is a 26-year veteran police officer, a U.S. Marine Vietnam veteran, commercial helicopter and airplane pilot, and author of eight non-fiction books and one novel. Our schools have always taught us that America is the good guy, the guys in the white hats, but the more you learn, the less you buy this. This book will certainly change the way we as Americans view ourselves and help us to see the way the rest of the world looks at us. If there is any good news in all this, it is that once your eyes are open to the truth, you will cease deluding yourself that our government or politicians are ever going to do anything to clean up their act, so it is WE THE PEOPLE that will have to keep the U.S. from going down the drain, acting from peaceful grassroots movements and community/neighborhood/family levels of action. You will not need guns, folks. We do not need a war—we need to do our best to help this country that we love, not start trouble. But you WILL need hearts and brains.

It is WE THE PEOPLE that will have to keep the U.S. from going down the drain, acting from peaceful grassroots movements and community/neighborhood/family levels of action
From World War II until the present, there has been hidden within the highest levels of government secrets that you are not supposed to discover. During the period of 1940 to present, the powerbrokers, working from their positions of trust, have committed and then covered up some of the most heinous of crimes known to mankind. The U.S. has done some good things as well, but corrupt forces in the U.S. have tainted our nation's record seriously with their covered-up crimes.
This book will open your eyes to what some of the less honorable people in the US government has been up to since the second world war. It is a fact that since the evolution of the species there have been and still are a few morally challenged and sociopathic people sprinkled throughout the general population in all societies. The U.S. has neither more nor less of these contemptible individuals than any other country. This type of nefarious jerk always tries to gain power and enslave, corrupt, kill, threaten, oppress, and rob decent folks and they often succeed, as you can tell by reading a book of the history of the world—even the sanitized versions that end up as textbooks. If you came out of high school believing that the U.S. is the savior of the world, trying to protect weaker countries from oppression and spreading democracy wherever it goes, then you have a lot of reading to catch up on! (Happily, reading this free website will be all you'll need to do—no need to buy or read actual books.)

To repeat, the world has had more than its share of evil scumbags, as you can tell by reading a book of the history of the world—even the sanitized versions that end up as textbooks. If you came out of high school believing that the U.S. is the savior of the world, trying to protect weaker countries from oppression and spreading democracy wherever it goes, then you have a lot of reading to catch up on! That Disneyland version of history is simply not true.

That Disneyland version of history you've been told is simply not true
It may be true that we saved the day in the two world wars, but—since then—the U.S. has been anything but a world savior. (See The Concise Untold History of the United States and American War Machine: Deep Politics, the CIA Global Drug Connection, and the Road to Afghanistan.) It has been the major force undermining democracy in the world, especially in Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East.

To cover their asses diplomatically and in propaganda our leaders send to the mainstream media, they use democratization and protection as cover stories

Here's what the U.S. says it is doing around the world

Reality: exploiting countries and then covering our asses with democratization and protection as cover stories
The USA has fomented rebellion and wars in countless countries in order to sell tens of billions of dollars worth of weapons to them, push them into debt, and then walk away with their minerals, diamonds, oil, and other precious resources, often leaving behind environmental devastation. The cutting down of tropical forests and endangering of species that you heard about are also an indirect result of U.S. efforts, since when you sink countries into debt, they do anything they can to pay off this debt.

And it is mostly U.S. corporations—working hand in hand with our CIA, the World Bank, and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID)—that are responsible for this global ravaging—the U.S. only uses its military when the exploitation of other nations by our corporatocracy fails. There are literally hundreds (thousands?) of books that explain these unpleasant realities. Interestingly, other countries are already fully informed about these matters—it is only U.S. citizens that are not. The major corporations that write the textbooks, like the U.S. mainstream media, have delivered a combination of facts, half-truths, misinformation, and propaganda for many decades and the naive U.S. citizens happily drink the Kool-Aid to the last drop, which means accepting B.S in place of truth, being bamboozled, being scammed, being fooled, being led down the garden path. See Fooling America: How Washington Insiders Twist the Truth and Manufacture the Conventional Wisdom.

We've been led down the garden path, failing to see that there's a sinkhole up ahead on this path—and it's miles deep

Naive U.S. citizens happily drink this Kool-Aid as well

Naive U.S. citizens happily drink even this Kool-Aid

No wonder the public seems so confused and nothing ever changes. They're choking on misinformation that comes their way via political manipulation of citizens and via the Culture War!
Our textbooks assured us that only Russian Communists used propaganda, however, simultaneously, the commies were informing their people that it was only the U.S. Imperialists that used it. And, yes, the U.S. has been the major imperialistic power since WWII. Before then, the British were the main imperialistic power—also known as an Empire (the British Empire). Our history books were not shy about condemning this empire since, after all, these are the imperialists our country rebelled against when we were nothing but colonies of the British Empire. We created the first viable democracy that was supposed to be by the people, for the people, and of the people. And it was just that—for a while. But after WWII, the U.S. started proving that old adage that absolute power corrupts absolutely. And so did the communist leaders of the U.S.S.R.

How U.S. shadow government oligarchs see themselves: the men who would be king

When the U.S.S.R. collapsed, U.S. ambitions skyrocketed and even though we stood for peace and democracy in books, behind the scenes we were blood-soaked empire builders
It was a very good thing that the Cold War was a period that kept the world in balance, with the U.S.S.R. and the U.S. keeping each other from running amok and pursuing the ultimate of ambition: empire, like the British did before us. But when the U.S.S.R. collapsed, U.S. ambitions skyrocketed and even though as a constitutional, representative democracy representing peace and democracy (in the history books the U.S. corporatocracy put out), we couldn't be seen as an empire builder, behind the scenes, we were just that. Only it was NOT the U.S. government doing this—it was the corporatocracy and shadow government doing this empire building.

U.S. dropping a little democracy on some country
So, our government "spread peace and democracy" as far as our textbooks were concerned and as far as our mainstream media was concerned, but our alternative media and the books that told the truth about all this were given labels by our regular media: kooks, commies, unpatriotic, liars, and conspiracy theorists, or conspiracy nuts, or just nutjobs. The liars were telling the public that the only real truth tellers were liars. But if you really do your research and dig into what has been happening in the last half century, you will confirm that the shadow government controlled mainstream media were lying all along and the non-mainstream media were actually giving us the straight truth. The party line is that we helped Latin America when commies threatened to take over, but the truth is that our shadow government replaced the leaders there—that were trying to represent their people—with violent thugs that represented U.S. corporatocracy agendas. Research it for yourself (avoiding mainstream media propaganda scripted by the corporatocracy), but bring a barf bag. The truth will set you free!

3 guesses who got rid of the great leader Omar Torrijos of Panama

One of the assassins the shadow government sent to remove decent Latin American leaders
In 2004, one of the shadow government slimebags finally couldn't deal with the guilt anymore, so he gave up the "economic hitman" life and quit being a slimebag and published a verifiably true account of what REALLY happened, in his Confessions of an Economic Hit Man. The book became a runaway bestseller (1.5 million in sales and counting), proving that there was a dammed up need for truth in this country and this is the book that broke the dam, after which many other people who had been afraid to tell their stories came forward with their own confessions of their misdeeds as part of the corporatocracy. (See list below.)

Democracy in the USA is degenerating rapidly, but perhaps the shock of the coming collapse will be the wake-up call we need to reestablish a balanced new democracy based on wisdom, humanism, respect for knowledge and learning, and vigilant responsibility. And The Medusa File: Secret Crimes and Coverups of the U.S. Government is a big wake-up call.
If you have relied on the bought-and-paid-for mainstream media flunkies for most of your information on major events, you will get a whole new perspective by reading Craig Roberts' book, facinating and a big wake-up call. But for a larger and more general picture of historical and current truth, see the following:

Various authors see the shadow government from various perspectives—like the blind men and the elephant, but the overall gist is creepily similar
