You can pick up a copy used of http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...ce&s=books fairly cheap. I read it a awhile back and it covers a lot of this stuff. You also can read the Amazon reviews. I sincerely doubt there is anyone controlling our government, but as is quoted from the first page of the book: A random telephone survey of 800 American adults in September 1996 found that 74 percent-virtually three out of four citizens-believe that the U.S. government regularly engages in conspiratorial and clandestine operations. Check it out, was a good read.
