This is just the cover. Kindle Publishing told me to go get a cup of coffee while it brewed up the book.
I must do what the computer tells me! Just to prove my independence, I added a shot of Kalua!
Here is a summary of the book:
Politics can have a negative impact on a nation's security. This is applicable whether the harm is done by expediting the development of nuclear weapons for religious fanatics to the unsuccessful degradation of a subversive group. By being able to analyze and how a subversive group was unsuccessfully confronted, the process of understanding how political interference can interfere with security can be extrapolated to explain how other factors can hinder national security as well. In the 1960s, the FBI continued a series of intelligence/harassment programs against violent and subversive groups within the United States against vastly different groups. How did FBI Director Hoover's political direction of the agency affect the efficiency of COINTELPRO operations in dealing with the Ku Klux Klan versus those dealing with the New Left? A content analysis of the literature exploring COINTELPRO operations may possibly demonstrate if Hoover's personal application of the bureaucratic politics model hindered the success of these counter-subversive operations.
The cover was funny b/c JFK did not order a specific COINTELPRO : Johnson ordered WHITE HATE and BLACK HATE, while Nixon ordered NEW LEFT. However, JFK did authorize ops against MLK, which Hoover went as far as he could after MLK criticized Hoover.
I'll post a link to the book when it goes live, but it is basically just a copy of my research project for grad school. Once I get my stuff together, I'll write a layman's guide to COINTELPRO and the groups it targeted.
KALUA GOOD - WORK BAD!
