-Jim Bath, Poppy Bush's front man for Saudi aviation sales, set up a quasi-private aircraft firm that would basically engage in CIA-sponsored activities funded by the Saudi royal family.

-Sky way Aircraft Leasing Ltd. in the Cayman Islands brokered $150 million aircraft deals to a firm that had connection with Oliver North in the Iran-Contra scandal.

Who is Really Running the Country?

At the end of the book, Russ Baker concludes that a network of politically and financially powerful individuals remain at work behind the scenes to advance their interests and enrich themselves at the expense of the nation. The Bush family has been at the heart of the alliance of corporate oil interests, finance and intelligence, which has been a driving invisible force to distort the American political process. Regardless of changes in the presidency or the Congress, the deeply entrenched elite remains in power.

Comment

Indeed, Baker retold the American history with in-depth investigative reporting, putting the puzzle pieces together to give us a comprehensive view of who was really behind the control of the government. If Americans want change, then they must first learn all the facts to make necessary changes. He told this writer that "arming yourself with well-documented, carefully sourced information is in itself a crucial beginning toward a solution to change the structure of power in the U.S. After all, information is power. If enough people really, truly understand how things work, and spread the word, positive change is inevitable."

Family of Secrets is a book that will change your perceptions of the past, present and future. A must read book for everyone in the United States and overseas!!!
