Restrained First Pass at the Truth

Revisado: 01-26-25

Harry has always been more like Diana than William—his eyes, his walk, his very presence reflect her spirit. "Spare" is a bold step into daylight from the Royal fog of propaganda, but it’s not yet Harry’s full and unfiltered truth. Though he has faced combat and danger without flinching, he clearly held back here, avoiding direct confrontation with the foundational hypocrisies and cruelties of the Crown.

The moment he recalls reading the secret police files on Diana’s death is particularly striking. When Harry notes the driver ‘allegedly’ had alcohol in his blood, it’s a clear signal that he questions the official narrative of his mother’s death. The paparazzi may have been present, but the full truth of what happened is something Harry knows—and cannot accept or forget. He won’t simply ‘behave, Dear Boy,’ as the monarchy might wish.

Harry’s connection to Africa reveals the depth of his soul in stark contrast to the cold machinery of the Crown. While King Charles promotes agendas like the Great Reset—global power plays thinly veiled as progress—Harry’s heart and identity seem tied to something far more genuine: the land and spirit of Africa, where he feels truly alive.

Oh, Harry, you’ve shown such courage already. Now, be the hero of your beliefs. Break free and tell your whole story—the world is waiting.

Be Aware of Meanings

Revisado: 05-14-24

For those who do not keep abreast of the author's work and his commitments this book would seem to be a somewhat charming narrative journey into "reality." However it is clear that things such as the Great Reset, World Economy Forum and the plans for the future are very often just under the surface of this book. It is alarming that there is an effort to reduce respect for elders, to disrespect many traditions and to willingly give up sovereignty and control to a whimsical view of a future state where, in Klaus Schwab's words; "You will own nothing and you will be happy." There are inconsistencies and un-stated aspects in the book which make it clear that it is but "Part 1." Unfortunately the reason many of us cannot wait for the next part is that our fear and curiosity is elevated as to what may come next and how alert and concerned people may wish to accept, reject or protest elements of Mr. Harari's erudite self-exposures.

Inconsistent

Revisado: 04-07-23

I know that Neil deGrasse Tyson has a large following of people with a near-worship level affection for him.
While he preached well and loudly about science needing to be impartial and free of subjective emotions, deGrasse Tyson contradicted himself in several places and leaned way "left" in his take/presentation. He seems to be a nice enough person but his subjectivity is very off-putting. Returned the book. No regrets other than the time lost listening to him.

Cannot be THE Graham Hancock!

Revisado: 04-07-23

The "herky-jerky" shifting between eras did not work well.
The violence was way too frequent and poorly presented in such a way that the cost of violence (pain, loss, death) were absent. Visions of punctures, slashes and amputations and viscera and fluids were all that came across.
The narrator has a somewhat pleasant voice but may as well have been reading a book on tulip gardening for the lack of excitement. She mutilated trying to make-up primordial language accents, peppering what sounded like Russian and Portuguese or horrible Spanish sounds.
I kept waiting for my prejudgment to wane so I could get into "the story"....never happened. I still have a bit more to go. I have never been a quitter so I will finish.
Graham Hancock has written some stellar-great books but I will steer very clear of his his fiction in the future.
Obviously this is just my opinion. Heck, someone might dislike my review enough to listen and miraculously find the book enjoyable. I do not recommend it.

Why Anthony Fauci is NOT suing!

Revisado: 02-25-22

Bobby, Jr. would much rather be flying pigeons or working with falcons--two of his major joys. All his life Bobby has loved animals and, due to waves which have washed through his life, he finds himself prosecuting cases against giants of industry, finance and bureaucracy. Not only is Bobby charging hard for his own unique field of interest, in many ways he remains the torch-bearer of his uncle John F. Kennedy and his father, Senator Robert Francis Kennedy--both slain for their daring penchant to clash with those whom they saw to be abusing liberty and human rights.

In 12-chapters, Mr. Kennedy has placed 2369 (two thousand three hundred sixty nine) end notes, which are citations of original sources. There are 46 people listed in the acknoledgmnts and 102 on the list of names of people who have either contributed significant parts to the book, or who are working to bring truth and data into the light so the public may be fully informed.

Those who call Bobby Kennedy, Jr. "anti-vax" are unaware of the fact that he and all of his children were routinely vaccinated over the years---He is NOT anti-vax--he is seeking full disclosure of facts and conflicts of interest, which are conveniently unmentioned or under-mentioned in official documents and heavily censored in the media, now-after President Clinton's "Teleccommunications Act of 1996"– by five conglomerate corporations, which own roughly 94% of all media. Getting to the title of this ----Have you noticed the complete silence on the media of anyone making specific condemnations of parts of the book? The answer is clearly "no." Now, is Dr. Anthony Fauci suing the daylights out of Sky Horse and Robert F. Kennedy for defamation of character or Libel or Slander? The answer is NO! Why? Because the minute the case hits the courtroom it will open the requite, DISCOVERY phase of any trial, where the evidenced is brought to light, analyzed and sorted out for veracity. What has been seen are a few minor appearances where the renowned Doctor has said he's sorry that Mr. Kennedy has been so mean to him and that most people in the Kennedy family are quite nice. The book shreds the man in the title and it would seem that anyone so-deeply evicerated in literary ways would want to defend himself or go on the offensive.

The silence is both deafening AND quite clearly the only thing available to the Doctor, unless he wants more people to look more deeply into the situation and find out about conflicts of interest, capricious decisions, omissions and strategic gymnastics. The parts which deal with AXT and Remdesivir make it abundantly clear how an unelected official, who is the highest paid federal employee, can make sweeping judgments and bone-chilling dictates, which vitally make him the J. Edgar Hoover of the medical world. And, lest we forget; J.Edgar Hoover referred to himself as the "S.O.G." (Seat of Government) because he had such intimidation/blacmailing power over so many elected officials, Hoover felt he was omnipotent and immortal. This book is not an easy read- nor an easy listen---however it leaves one asking....WHY WOULDN;T FAUCI be suing, Bobby. We now know.

Vapid Misdirection

Revisado: 08-22-21

The book was a vituperation and condemnation of Donald Trump as president far more than a commentary on a virus whose true origin and nature remains one of controversy. Truths were obfuscated unnecessarily to make Trump look "bad" and to make Biden or anyone else "good" when such adjectives would be unwarranted in a field of study so full of question marks.

The efficacy of the Warp Speed developed vaccinations is unwarranted as is the implications that Trump was the principal source of the recommendation of treatments, which have recently been shown to have been effective and thus eliminating the justification for EUA (Emergency Use Authorization). This book is a political hit far more than a scientific evaluation and I resent paying the money to hear such one-sided drivel. I am not, and never have been a fan of Donald Trump. AND Trump is bashed mercilessly against subjective data and that is unfair. I am going to get a credit so I can read something that is far less biased and more inline with real world numbers and facts.

The Scariest Book I have Ever Read

Revisado: 04-29-21

This book is an unwitting preview of a haunting and inhumane world to come, wrapped up in a cutesy hyper optimistic package of inconsistent meandering between faux-morality and outright predatory competition and selective eugenics. It is entirely laudable that Jennifer Daudna and Emmanuelle Charpentier worked a hard fought path to acclaim and rewards in a male-dominated world. Hooray and Halelieujah! However Doudna's near worship of James Dewey Watson (the bigot and closet eugenicist) makes it clear that if the likes of Doudna are successful that a master-race (or competing master race want-to-bes) will almost surely come to pass. The narrator's voice was more suitable for a child's book on chipmunks than a topic of this seriousness. The overt skipping over warnings around mRNA vaccines and the tests used around COVID-19 seem to be either well funded or careless. Doudna's praising of Steve Jobs' excessive competitiveness and propensity to be "crazy" is fine in an electronic world of physical components and NOT in a world where the entire genetic make-up of the species could be disrupted, perhaps tragically, by accident due to the promotion, funding and acceptance of pharmaceuticals created in "just 2-hours." As a mostly pro-vaccination humanist it is difficult to write this review. AND it is clear to me that far too few people are researching deeply enough to see through the omissions, partial truths and funded topics with which this book is so heavily saturated. The whole premise that we can snip, snip, glue and control minute aspects of a world about which we know so very little make it very clear how far doctors-playing-God can go and the effects they can foment. There is so much more but this is lengthy and most people stopped reading long ago when the topic began to provoke deeper thought or clash with popular or convenient memes promoted and protected by deep pockets and, in some cases, long term agendas. I am not highly religious but Code Breaker has me repeating to myself; Please-God, Save Us!"

Merciless Bashing, unworthy of listening

Revisado: 01-01-19

This book seems to be a paid-for bashing of a human being with inhuman descriptions which resemble Nixonian campaign tactics. The accusations, mostly without source credits are only as bad as the endless innuendos which portray Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. as being, literally a dirty, person, on drugs and hardly worthy of recognition. The fact is that RFK Jr. may have had some issues but they were surmounted and the man is doing valiant work against some of the most abusive corporations on the planet. How Jerry Oppenheimer has avoided a fat law suit for defamation of character is a mystery to me. RFK, Jr. is embattled with some very large and dangerous groups, who would think of nothing to drop a low 6-figure sum to get a book published to demean Bobby, Jr. I have never read a book with so little redeeming aspects as this one. Don't bother unless you are predisposed to hate members of the Kennedy family, for, in that case, this book will leave you thrilled with prejudices validated, albeit without documentation.

From Number Eight to Number ONE

Revisado: 12-27-17

I have been a 'Niner fan for decades and lived through the painful quarterback controversy era. Steve Young was always in second place because he seemed to be on bad terms with Joe Montana. This book brought a complete wave of humanity to light and made Steve Young a stand alone champion, leaving all the room that Joe Montana deserves for his own accomplishments. I would love to be Steve Young's neighbor. He sounds like a leader the 21st century could use and a lot more just like him.

Good To Know; Now What?

Revisado: 12-27-17

I am an avid researcher of the assassination of both John and Bobby, so when I saw this book, I thought it would be great to read and know. It was quite interesting for the most part but it also smacked of a certain level of upper-class dis-connection. I found there were a lot of dates, names and incidents, which did not spin my propeller. Ouch, considering the number of Kennedy family members who suffered from plane crashes.....
It is a good book indeed and adds to my feelings of sadness for all the Kennedys have endured. But then, there are millions who have endured similar; we just don't know about them because the others are just... "others."
