Das Schachbrett des Teufels
David Talbot liefert mit seiner packend erzählten Biographie über den langjährigen CIA-Direktor Allen Dulles nicht nur einen realen Spionage-Thriller. Sein internationaler Bestseller führt uns auf die dunkle Seite der Macht und durch ein halbes Jahrhundert amerikanischer Schattenpolitik. Als "finsterer Prinz des Kalten Krieges" entwickelte Dulles die CIA vom kleinen Nachrichtendienst zu einer schlagkräftigen Organisation zur weltweiten Durchführung verdeckter Operationen, Mordplänen gegen ausländische Staatsführer, dem Sturz legitim gewählter Regierungen im Ausland und der massenhaften Überwachung der eigenen Staatsbürger. Eine beängstigende Biographie, über Manipulation und Machtmissbrauch, die die Augen öffnet.

La conspiración

release date: Jan 01, 2013
La conspiración
Este libro nos descubre otra historia de los Kennedy, muy distinta a la desenfadada y frívola que se suele contar. La historia de dos hombres, el presidente y su hermano Robert, que mantuvieron una dura lucha contra las fuerzas oscuras de su entorno: contra los generales y los dirigentes del aparato de inteligencia, empeñados en arrastrar al país a una nueva guerra mundial. Una lucha que acabó con el asesinato de John en Dallas, que Robert estaba convencido que era obra de una conspiración del crimen organizado, la CIA y los grupos que planeaban una acción violenta contra Cuba, lo que explica que se propusiera reabrir la investigación del magnicidio cuando llegase a la presidencia. Algo que impidió su muerte: un nuevo y oportuno crimen, probablemente organizado por las mismas fuerzas. Talbot ha basado esta innovadora visión del trágico destino de los dos hermanos en documentación recientemente desclasificada y en entrevistas con más de ciento cincuenta testigos, incluyendo a los más estrechos colaboradores de los hermanos Kennedy.
