Ex-Spy in Rave Review of "9/11 Synthetic Terror: Made in USA"

Amazon's #1 Non-fiction Reviewer says of Tarpley's 9/11 Synthetic Terror:
Made in USA: "Among 100's of Books, Strongest Approach to Truth"

Reviewer, a former spy and founder of the Marine Corps Intelligence Command,
is impressed by Progressive Press claims that 9/11 was a "US-based conspiracy"

9/11 Synthetic Terror's sales ranking soared to #262 in books on Amazon on Oct. 20th, #7 in Current Events books, after the following press release was posted by websites like 911blogger.com. It continued to rank mostly in the low hundreds for over a week.
Thanks to everyone who gave the story a boost! Like truth-only at Politics.Netscape, Alex Jones and Paul Watson, mskee, armageddon online, 911truth.org, bruce at moby.com, everybody who voted for it to be a top story at news.netscape.com/tag/911 and at digg.com, everyone who voted for Steele's review on Amazon, to bloggers like Postman Patel, fullcontactpoker, propagandamatrix, inquirylabs, canadianspectator.ca and so many others who "built the buzz" and contributed to this breakthrough.

Comment: Steele says national security won't come from high-tech military technology, but from the open-source information which is so abundantly available. He promotes a concept of information peacekeeping as a complement to information warfare.
Indeed, recent war-fighting has degraded America's standing, which is her ultimate source of security. The faction now in power are interested in perpetuating their power and profit through national insecurity.

Amazon's #1 Non-fiction Reviewer says Tarpley's 9/11 Synthetic Terror: Made in USA is "strongest of the 770+ books I have reviewed"
Reviewer, a former spy and founder of the Marine Corps Intelligence Command, is impressed by Progressive Press claims that 9/11 was a "US-based conspiracy"

Washington DC (PRWEB) October 18, 2006 -- Progressive Press announced that its 9/11 Synthetic Terror has just been cited as the best non-fiction book ever by Amazon's top non-fiction book reviewer, intelligence professional Robert Steele, in a 5-star review at http://www.amazon.com/dp/0930852370.

Progressive specializes in books that contend 9/11 was an "inside job." Publisher John Leonard says "it's a coup to have Steele with us on this. Here you have a level-headed, respected insider, lifelong Republican, veteran spy, and he's breaking the taboos. It's a great tribute and a vindication of the work we put into 9/11 Synthetic Terror."

Steele's finding that evidence suggests 9/11 was a "US-based conspiracy" may be a first coming from a senior US intelligence community figure. He came to this conclusion "with great sadness" after reading 9/11 Synthetic Terror: Made in USA, which he praises as "without question, the most important modern reference on state-sponsored terrorism."

A unique feature of 9/11 Synthetic Terror is that Tarpley does not blame an entire government or agency. His "rogue network" model features small numbers of moles infesting critical nodes in key institutions like the CIA and mass media.

Steele also believes the CIA's mission has been subverted by the follies of the covert operations branches, for example, the fake evidence for a war on Iraq. He says the majority of CIA and military officers are honest; it's the system that is corrupt.

When Steele is not reading hundreds of non-fiction books, he's busy trying to put some intelligence back into the intelligence business. His website, OSS.net, advocates open source information sharing for peacekeeping.

According to Steele's biography on Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_David_Steele, he "is a former Marine Corps infantry and intelligence officer for twenty years and was the second-ranking civilian (GS-14) in U.S. Marine Corps Intelligence from 1988-1992. Steele is a former clandestine services case officer with the Central Intelligence Agency."

In his review of 9/11 Synthetic Terror entitled "Among Hundreds of Books, The Strongest Approach to Truth," Steele notes, "Most fascinatingly, the author links Samuel Huntington, author of Clash of Civilizations, with Leo Strauss, the connecting rod between Nazi fascists and the neo-cons."

Tarpley was a Fulbright scholar in Italy, where he exposed the Red Brigades as a countergang run by NATO intelligence to defeat Eurocommunism. In 1991 he broke the story of the Bush dynasty's deep involvement in financing Nazism with George Bush: The Unauthorized Biography, republished by Progressive Press. See also his bio at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webster_Tarpley.

In a separate development, Tarpley's publisher Progressive Press is giving away 2,000 copies of a 352-page book, You're Not Stupid: A Brief on the Bush Presidency, for fundraisers.
