Politics War

A remarkable analysis linking the assassination of JFK and 9/11, and how both events were used to influence war policy. Peter Dale Scott examines the many ways in which war policy has been driven by “accidents” and other events in the field, in some cases despite moves toward peace that were directed by presidents. This book explores the “deep politics” that exerts a profound but too-little-understood effect on national policy outside the control of traditional democratic processes.

What would you do if everything changed overnight? No power. No supplies. No clear information. Just chaos, confusion, and decisions that could determine your survival. This book is not theory. It’s built on real lessons from the war in Ukraine, where civilians were forced to adapt instantly as normal life collapsed around them. Families had minutes to evacuate. Stores emptied in hours. Systems people depended on stopped working without warning. This is what actually happened. And more importantly, what you can learn from it.
