Don't forget Paul Blackstock's "The Strategy of Subversion: Manipulating the Politics of Other Nations." One of my favorite books. He was an intelligence officer during the early Cold War. The book, which was written in the 1960s, outlines exactly how the US goes about subverting countries and toppling them. No normative content, just all descriptive stuff. It's basically the playbook for all American subversion since then, and completely matches up with the color revolutions they've been carrying out.

A ton. Give me a few minutes and I'll look at my lists.

More like death to your brain cells.

So rather than just start naming authors. I'll drop my own reading lists, as well as the reading lists of a guy on Amazon from years ago called anarchteacher. His lists are good. This will give you a bunch of books to choose from should you wish.

The deep state link is BS, JFK/9-11? Please.

These lists are an update on most of the cold war framework that the deep state used in that time period. It shows how the globalists through America carrying out subversion, how they are financed, how they are dealt with under legal frameworks, what they target, etc.

There's a lot of rightwing paranoia in these lists, which is ironic given that the second list is critical of nativism and Merika paranoia

Blackstock's framework is the same subversion process. Call it covert action, call it covert operations, call it color revolutions. It's all the same techniques and procedures that have evolved over time.

As to the smug "prison planet" comment, sure I'll just ignore the primary source slides from Russian military officers and intelligence outlining that color revolutions exist: web.archive.org/web/20170409024148/https://csis-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/s3fs-public/legacy_files/files/publication/140529_Russia_Color_Revolution_Full.pdf

and all the books I've presented above.

Excellent argument. I've updated my priors.

This is mixing good with low test paranoid jabber

Three Who Should not Exist: Jews, Iranians and Flies
On Juche
Mein Kampf

I know that you coward types like to replace arguments with low effort non-argumentative descriptions of posts, but you could at least be a bit more descriptive and referential about what exactly you have a problem with. Saying something is "good" and "low test paranoid jabber" doesn't exactly disambiguate what you are on about.

The JFK conspiracy stuff, there was no conspiracy he was not a dove he was at the hawkish end of the administration. He campaigned on a militarist platform in 1960 arguing for more defence spending, he escalated the Vietnam war from merely supporting a friendly dictator to bombing and defoliation and sending in 'military advisors', bay of pigs and operation mongoose, began the planning for overthrowing Brazil's government.

We are supposed to believe he was some messianic saviour brought down low by the CIA/federal reserve/free masons/illuminati/Jews/Texan oilmen?
The guy has become a cypher, whatever your particular bugaboo is that's what you can apply to him to make it real and tangible to assail.
Baloney.

Then there is the nativist paranoia about globalised and secret cabals subverting America for their own purposes

Which is quite odd because it has other works contradicting this view, critical of nativism as a tool of business and providing an institutional analysis of government actions

>coward types
Mate I'm the guy with the shelf who asked about this

The ethos of JFK has jackshit to do with the arguments that most deep state theorists put forward. Most of them admit that he wasn't perfect (especially Peter Dale Scott). The claims in aggregate are that there is a continuing systemic structure buried within the intelligence services and has help elsewhere via financing or cat's paws. Every now and then this structure gives rise to certain events, e.g. JFK assassination, 9/11, etc. Usually the same names and groups pop up associated with these events. Your "cypher" argument is very definition of a strawman of what these people usually believe insofar as putting an argument forth that isn't there. And a rhetorical question that denies these deep state theories is not an argument. Saying "baloney" is not an argument, since the ethos reasoning doesn't support what is being asserted by other deep state theorists.

As to your loaded terms about "nativist paranoia"; again, this is the descriptive crap I'm talking about that masquerades as thought and rational support. You are hiding behind descriptive and loaded terms in place of any thought on the matter.

>Mate I'm the guy with the shelf who asked about this

Maybe you should stick to shit Penguin translations of the classics then. The spines look perfect, by the way. Bet you are a deep reader of books. It's also very rational of you to judge a list of books by the person putting forth the lists though (since I did say you can pick and choose). Top tier minds of Veeky Forums in action. If we are going to do some judgments based on surface features, then I'm guess I'm done here, since you are garbage at arguing and garbage at thinking via your continuing non-arguments.

>The spines look perfect, by the way. Bet you are a deep reader of books

kek

Add Michael Hudson, Super Imperialism and Killing the Host in particular.
Also Patrick Cockburn's books on ISIS and Arab Spring Then and Now by Cockburn and Fisk are great.
Ghost Wars and Private Empire by Steve Coll
Dark Money by Jane Meyer
America's Stolen Narrative and Lost History by Robert Parry
Challenging the Secret Government by Kathryn Olmsted (she is my uni's history department chair and this was her phd dissertation)

These are the things I've read or seen referenced that would fit in your list.

>Philip Dru: Administrator- A Story of Tomorrow, 1920-1935
>"First published anonymously, "Colonel" Edward Mandell House's horribly written novel tells the story of how America was seized in a coup d'etat by dictator Philip Dru to implement "socialism as dreamt by Karl Marx." A fictionalized blue-print for tyranny by one of the most sinister power-brokers in American history. See Jules Archer's The Plot To Seize The White House."

Alex Jones tier paranoia, der globalists want to the over America make make it gommunisms
Really?
Unless this is included as an example of the origin of this stuff, its confused paranoid white noise

>he was a bum but still it was a plot
For what purpose

9/11 happened because it is not a monolithic edifice
They are human and incompetent and focused on petty office politics
So when Richard Clarke tried to warm the administration about al Qaeda the neocons were more interested in Iraq
When the CIA knew that several al Qaeda guys were in the country in early 2001, they didnt tell the FBI because they wanted to monitor them and see who else they met and try to recruit them and get them to finger bin Ladens location so they could be ones to get the glory and the adulation and the inside access and more funding

The cypher argument is not a strawman, whatever people have a gripe against that's who they identify as the perpetrator, which is why we have so many works identifying different groups
And no don't deny the deep state, look at my shelf, I deny the shallow paranoia it is conflated with
Here's an example of the deep state: Wesley Clarke has said that in the aftermath of 9/11 a friend of his still in the pentagon spoke to him in some distress about a memo being circulated laying out plans to invade 7 countries in 5 years: Afghanistan Iraq, Syria, Iran, Lebanon, Somalia, Libya
Well this had to be shelved after Iraq didnt turn into the cake walk the neocons expected - again another example of how we are dealing with fallible humans that can be gullible and deluded - but look at the list again: Syria, Somalia, Libya have all experienced revolts, and Lebanon and Iran have had internal conflict and undermining
Is this a coincidence? No, this is the deep state bureaucracy that exists before and after administrations and maintains goals and keeps going, it simply changed tact after overt military intervention proved untenable.
That's what the deep state does, not killing a bloke doing everything to advance Americans imperial policies abroad.

>as to your loaded terms about nativist paranoia
See >verbose insults
Tip elsewhere

>spines look perfect, by the way
He takes care of his property how dare he!
>judge a list of books by the person putting forth the lists
No I judged some of the books being contradictory and coming from the paranoid right

What you should be done with is your holier than thou attitude that can't stand any dissension and demands total conformity

I've seen dark money around, is it any good?
And yes been meaning to get Bob Parry

I keep meaning to read it but I've heard praise for it, it's less "deep state" than the others. What has motivated me to give it higher weight on my backlog was her New Yorker profile of Robert Mercer, a Ted Cruz and Trump backer. He's been in politics for less time than the Kochs but his support for Trump (he introduced Trump to Bannon and Conway) has given him the attention of Meyer.

It sounds like it gets to the heart of the "Investment Theory of Party Competiton" - en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Investment_theory_of_party_competition - how blocs of investors come together to essentially buy elections and get their agenda through
Mercer also runs an IT firm that does Internet psyops, its how he made his money

miamiherald.com/latest-news/article131466809.ece/binary/ksmlettertoobama.pdf

Okay that's all really cool but let's get real here. I'm already critical of America, what is are the 1-3 books I should read in order to get an understanding that goes beyond the normal level of Chomsky-knowledge?

...

There's nothing deeper than what chomsky is saying: its big business screwing the rest of us and politicians working for them

The 'deeper' is nonsense: masons/illuminati/reserve bank/Jews/reptiloids/muh false dichotomy MSM sheeple deliberately failing as part of their Zanatos gambit

If you wanna look into the muslim perspective I'd recommend starting with this one.

It's also got a bunch of translated jihadi documents, like Osama bin Laden's declaration of war and the proclamation of ISIS.

Also, this author in another book:
>“But currently in radical Islam, there is a movement that can harness the apocalyptic heritage of classical Islam. From the point of view of major strategists and thinkers among the radicals, Islam is in a critically perilous situation as a result of a concerted attack by all of the non-Muslim countries together, in addition to a systematic betrayal from within by Muslim establishments--both political and religious. This is a situation that has led to the humiliation of Muslims, the occupation of their lands, the systematic despoiling of their resources, and the desecration of their sanctities. The only way this situation can be confronted and reserved, in their analysis, is through jihad.”
