DESCRIPTION - IN THIS ISSUE - TRACKING COVERT ACTIONS INTO THE FUTURE by Philip Agee. A former CIA officer traces the roots of U.S. foreign policy and covert operations and reveals the grimly logical implications for the global splintering and regional struggles implicit in the New World Order; PERU: INCHING TOWARD THE ABYSS by Phillip Smith. If Sendero Luminoso is as small and brutal as usually portrayed, how can it command popular support and control large areas? Smith sets a complex context of government terror, racial and economic exploitation, and rational relentless revolutionary strategy; BUSH INAUGURAL ADDRESS LEAKED by Edward S. Herman & Terry Allen. CovertAction has obtained a leaked copy of George Bush's inaugural speech. Just in case he doesn't get to deliver it in January, you can read it here first. Four more years of the same, only better; REFURBISHING SPECIAL OPERATIONS by Louis Wolf. Special operations and low-intensity conflict warriors retool for the New World Order with a dazzling display of murderous intentions and weaponry; FLUORIDE: COMMIE PLOT OR CAPITALIST PLOY by Joel Griffiths. The debate has raged for decades between the right-wing loonies and the sane voices of science. Missing has been an analysis of who really profits from fluoridating public water supplies; WHAT BUSH KNEW AND WHY HE KNEW IT by Anthony L. Kimery. Clever is the man who hides behind the cloud of smoke that curls from the gun in his own hands. Documenting Bush's decades-long involvement in covert operations, crimes, and coverups; GEORGE BUSH'S INSIDE TRACK by Karen Branan. As vice president, George Bush headed a little-known section of the National Security Council. The crisis management system functioned like an intelligence arm and was a virtual clearinghouse for Iran-Contra and other covert operations; REV. MOON BUYS COLLEGE, HIRES SPOOKS AND MOONIES by Frederick Clarkson. The newest moonbeam is the U. of Bridgeport (Conn.), where the self-proclaimed Second Coming is stacking the board of trustees with earthly spooks and Unification Church lackeys. The promised academic freedom would take a miracle to deliver; BUSH ADMINISTRATION USES CIA TO STONEWALL IRAQGATE by Jack Colhoun. The more Henry Gonzalez (D-Tex.) reveals about how until only days before the Gulf War the U.S. supported Saddam and supplied high-tech weaponry, the more vicious the CIA attacks against him; MILITARIZING THE DRUG WAR by David Isenberg. The U.S. drug war failed to curtail narco-trafficking but succeeded brilliantly in shoring up eroding military budgets and in justifying counterinsurgency interventions. The U.S. military role is increasing at home and abroad. It's the only war we've got.; NICARAGUA: U.S. BLUEPRINT FOR DEPENDENCE by Peter Mott. Out of the media spotlight, the bloody Contra war continues. So, too, the battle for hearts and minds, where the U.S. has increased pressure and personnel, both official and private. Sound familiar? INSIDE THE L.A. SECRET POLICE by Fred Hoffman. Review of new book by ex-Los Angeles cop reveals a secret information gathering unit within the LAPD that kept thousands of extensive files. inventory #47887.
