Product Description
Written by the author of the legendary 1992 expose of Bush the elder, this book works from a New Deal point of view. Obama is exposed as a foundation operative and agent of Wall Street finance capital, controlled by Zbigniew Brzezinski, George Soros, and Goldman Sachs. Obama's mother was an official of the Ford Foundation, the World Bank, and US AID. By all indications, Obama was identified for future political use by Brzezinski at Columbia in 1981-1983, during Obama's secret lost years. Obama has worked for the Gamaliel Foundation, the Joyce Foundation, the Woods Fund, and the Annenberg Foundation. A community organizer is a poverty pimp, a cynical opportunist who uses suffering people as a political commodity. The foundation strategy is divide and conquer, pitting blacks and against whites against Hispanics against Asians - to prevent any challenge to Wall Street. Racist provocateurs like Wright and Pfleger, along with Weatherman terrorist bombers Ayers and Dohrn - Obama's best friends - are cast in this mold. Rezko, Auchi, and Al-Sammarae represent the cesspool of Chicago graft and corruption in which Obama cavorts. Schooled in Nietzsche and Fanon, Obama qualifies as a postmodern fascist. An Obama administration would strive for brutal economic sacrifice and austerity to finance Wall Street bailouts, and for imperialist confrontation with Russia and China.

 Obama - Tool of the Trilaterals December 11, 2008
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Without a doubt, this is the best political biography I have read since `George Bush: The Unauthorized Biography.'
The material is voluminous and damning.
I particularly liked the information on the large foundations (Ford, et al) that are the root cause of much of the current strife in America.
Tarpley hammers away at Wall St. and these related foundations, whose job it is to ensure that working people continue to fight one another in the old Roman tradition of divide-and-conquer, rather than focusing on the financial oligarchs who play them like the proverbial fiddle.
From the beginning, Barack Obama and his wife have been beholden to these very foundations (as was his mother) for their livelihood.
And then there is the Faustian presence of Barack's mentor from Columbia, Zbignew Brezinski. One has to wonder how far the war hawk will nudge Obama into more foreign intrigues in the New Year.
Also troubling, is the malign presence of Rothschild golem George Soros, who appears to have underwritten much of the contributions of moveon.org. Time will tell how Soros intends to call in his marker with the new President....
Buy this book as an antidote to the plethora of hagiographies presently choking the bookstalls.

I haven't read the book yet, but I just wanted to point something out about Obama that I think Tarpley hasn't put as straightforwardly as I'd like.
Obama is a spook. I don't mean that in the racist sense of the word.
Obama's mother was a CIA officer.
Obama was one of 8 students selected to study sovietology in Columbia's IR program under Brzezinski, one of the CIA's top-ranking officers.
Obama went to work for a CIA front, Business International Corporation (one of whose specialties was recruiting leaders of domestic left-wing organizations as CIA assets).
Obama ran for state office and his opponent quit the race before the election.
Obama ran for US Senate, and his opponent quit the race before the election.
Obama ran for Pres., and his foreign policy chief was, who else, one of the CIA's top officers, Brzezinski.
I use the same simple technique that the security forces use to identify intelligence agents and prevent infiltration: I do a background check.
I'm not saying Obama is good or bad. I'm just pointing out that he is a spook.

20081214 DEPARTED AMAZON WITH OUTRAGE OVER THE MANIPULATION OF VOTES.
EDIT of 14 Dec 08: Obama has been balanced in his early days, but conventional. He is appointing a "winner take all" Cabinet and going along with the Wall Street desires for massive bail-outs. He can be a great president if and only if he breaks the backs of the two criminal parties, invites Ralph Nader, Ron Paul, Cynthia McKinney, and Chuck Baldwin to be a kitchen council, and passes Electoral Reform and the Smart Nation Act. I am not holding my breath but will hope for the best.
EDIT of 19 Oct 08 to point to comment from author on this review and add Associated Press image of Obama's Indonesian citizenship and Muslim faith as registered for school in Indonesia.
This book may have been published too late, and I have to ask myself if John McCain's staff is incompetent, or whether McCain has somehow been sidelined and "contained" so as to LOSE this election.
I have read a great deal, not just in books, but in articles, online, and so on, and I am fairly persuaded that Barack Obama has not been properly vetted, and that there is a conspiracy of silence that is extraordinarily well-funded.
I am especially troubled by the complete absence of any proof that he actually attended Columbia University; by the very high probability that he was in fact raised as a Muslim (until he returned to the USA); and by the very bad company that he keeps--and here I refer to Zbigniew Brzezinsky, and the Democratic "regulars," not Reverend Wright.
I am also troubled by the fact that most people of color see him for what he appears to be an elitist on the payroll of Wall Street corporations, a "House Negro" in their telling of the story, and hence the ideal "front man" for Wall Street's last great looting of what is left of the American treasury.
This book, which I could not put down once I picked it up, has eleven chapters, and each is incendiary. There are many places where I believe the author--a gifted historian whose integrity is unimpeachable--goes over the top on his political interpretations. A certain amount of filtering is required, but the bottom line for me is clear:
1) Barack Obama's valid US citizenship has not been proven beyond a reasonable doubt. His current birth certificate may be forged, and he may have lost his original one in the process of renouncing U.S. citizenship upon adoption. At a minimum he would appear to have conflicted loyalties.
2) His early years being raised as a Muslim have been proven by at least one enterprising reporter, but the entire media--a completely controlled enterprise that continues to refuse fully-funded public service advertisements--appears to have been ordered to cover this up.
I am going to have to read this book at least once more. The author provides a wealth of detail along three other paths that are very troubling:
1) Senator Obama is a shameless full-up member of the Chicago crime circles and corruption circles, and has not shirked from their financial sponsorship.
2) Senator Obama does not appear in any Columbia University literature, class photos, and has failed to produce a transcript of his claimed time at Columbia, or proof of graduation. His staff and his biographies are both adamant on not discussing this period in his life.
3) Senator Obama appears to have been groomed for his role, and to be a consummate actor who plays the role he is paid to play.
Here are the chapter headings, which the publisher has not seen fit to provide--with the caveat that the author sometimes goes a bridge too far with his interpretations of the facts, the facts are never-the-less there and I for one do not trust Obama, in large part because of the company he keeps and who he listens to.
Introduction: Obama from the Ford Foundation to the Trilateral Commission
Chapter 1: Obama's Roots in Polygamy and the Ford Foundation
Chapter 2: Columbia University and Recruitment by Zbigniew Brzezinski
Chapter 3: Foundation-funded Racism in Chicago: Jeremiah Wright and Michelle
Chapter 4: Apprenticeship with Foundation-Funded Terrorists: Ayers and Dohrn
Chapter 5: Obama's Heart of Darkness: Rezko, Auchi, Alsammareae, and Chicago Graft
Chapter 6: Grabbing a Senate Seat with a Little Help from his Trilateral Friends
Chapter 7: The Hope Pope and His Trilateral Money Machine
Chapter 8: "Our Souls Are Broken" -- "Feel Don't Think! Be Visceral!" -- Michelle Obama, Postmodern Fascist Ideologue
Chapter 9: Obama's Triumph of the Will: The 2008 Primaries
Chapter 10: Obama: A Looming World Tragedy
Chapter 11: Obama as Social Fascist
The appendices are fascinating and include an actual law suit that was not allowed to proceed, seeking force Obama to document his U.S. citizenship properly.
Like other anti-Obama books, one has to do some filtering, but at the end of it all, I have to treat books like this the way I treat books about the 9-11 "let it happen" and cover up: there is substance here that the public has a right to evaluate, and that the media is NOT evaluating.
PLEASE: buy and read this book for yourself and weight in with your own opinion. In my view, similar to books like Crossing the Rubicon: The Decline of the American Empire at the End of the Age of Oil, there is enough here to indict, but not to convict. Only a mass of thinking citizens can go that last mile. My role here is to propose that you all do that: engage. I do want to emphasize that my greatest concern about Obama is not whether he is gifted (we know he is), but rather who is behind him, who controls him, and what his puppet masters will have him do--despite Colin Powell's endorsement, I trust John McCain to be independent, and I have seen Obama shut out those who would help him balance the Democratic "advisors" that are in my view dangerous.

Judging a book by its cover might be a good start in this review of Webster G. Tarpley's book Barack H. Obama: The Unauthorized Biography. The fine cartoon by Tarpley & Azar is no mere metaphor, for it correctly depicts the fact that the `chosen one', Obama, has successfully destroyed the essence of the Democratic Party towards the people of this country as exemplified by the mission of FDR and the New Deal towards `The Forgotten Man". Yes the Democratic donkey has collapsed under the weight of the egotistical puppet Obama and his entourage of Foundation funded terrorists, racists, politically connected crooks, diabolical warmongers, corrupted Democratic Party officials and ultimately the Wall Street swindlers, all who must be examined in context of the present world crisis in order to understand who Obama really is.
Written in an accessible and compelling style, Tarpley has written a unique book that transcends the nihilistic impotence of the left and the reactionary myopia of the right, by reviving a form of historical analysis informed by an all but lost tradition of the United States of America: our historical mission to fight the specter of oligarchy's twin evils, the tyranny of the one, and the tyranny of the many, mob rule. Obama, as will be discovered, combines the worst of both into a particularly insidious combination that is duping the masses with slogans and politically correct identifications as he dangerously divides and polarizes the people of America for his masters.
As the world financial system disintegrates, there is a reason why Barack Obama has been chosen and funded by Wall Street, Soros, and others of the international financial elite. As such the only way to understand Obama is to understand his handlers like the insane Strangelove Brzezinski and those outlets of elitist oligarchic control, the Foundations best typified by the Ford Foundation. Serving as money distribution agents for the intelligence communities, such an influence by the foundations Tarpley demonstrates in detail, as the one very constant in the life of Obama. Foundation influences from his mother on to his association with the Weather Underground terrorists Ayers and Dohrn and the insane racist message of Black Liberation Theology funded by the Ford Foundation.
By itself, Tarpley's expose on the true nature of the Weather Underground, as agent provocateurs against the legitimate peace movement is one of the keys to understanding what went wrong in America in the 60's makes the book a value for such unique analysis. By working to destroy not only the peace movement, but the civil rights movement and the labor movement in America, movements that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was actively bringing together is to understand the method of evil that continues with violence and racism that Ayers and Dohrn celebrate to this day with the protection of the establishment typified by the New York Times.
As a man who ultimately does not know who he is, this is the tragedy of Obama and America potentially, where his great talents are wasted by the very decadence of those around him and the doctrines of political and philosophical nihilism violence that surround his upbringing. Obama's own celebration of his alienation and privileged victimization has been engineered into a compelling egotistical aggrandizement that has spawned a very dangerous mass movement based on empty slogans.
Behind the slogans lies the reality of policies that in essence represent a terrorist attack against the working people of the United States and mission to uphold certain self evident truths. Obama was chosen, because his own desire to become someone embodies a synthetic mythology of hope and unity that is betrayed by the policies of economic austerity and privation that he becomes the politically correct salesman to seduce and polarize Americans into the next phase of imperialism and economic fascism.
Yes the book is a hard hitting dissection of not only Obama, but America and our own selves. Rather than merely exulting in dissecting the pessimism of the bitter Obama, this book rather serves a very optimistic function, for the astute reader who can come to this with an open mind, the opportunity is available to free oneself politically from the fetters of illusion that control people on both the right and the left today through demagoguery and lies. A step towards political maturity and good judgment. As such Tarpley, provides the context in this book, written under hasty emergency conditions, to regain ones humanity as you participate in a rare example of Machiavellian methodology against political evil that runs rampant in these dangerous times.
So should you reflexively disagree to this book on Obama, as titled and so reviewed, then all the more reason to purchase a copy, immediately.
