In his book "
Jackals: The Stench of American Fascism," investigative author Alex Constantine pulls back the curtain on decades of covert operations, financial scandals and alliances with extremist groups tied to the
Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).
The book offers a chilling examination of the CIA's alleged involvement in global terrorism, financial crises and the rise of neoconservatism. Drawing on historical records, investigative reports and insider accounts, Constantine paints a disturbing portrait of systemic corruption and unaccountable power.
The book begins with a startling revelation: the CIA's alleged ties to Black September, the Palestinian paramilitary group responsible for the 1972 Munich Olympics massacre. Constantine argues that the agency maintained a "wink-and-nod" relationship with Yasser Arafat, leader of the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO), despite his public denunciations of the policies of the United States, especially its unconditional support for Israel.
Arafat's top intelligence officers, including Ali Hassan Salameh, a key Black September operative, reportedly had regular contact with the CIA. Salameh, also known as Abu Hassan, refused to become an American agent but continued to collaborate with the agency, even providing security for U.S. diplomats in Beirut during the Lebanese Civil War.
Constantine also delves into the CIA's post-World War II connections to Nazi collaborators, such as Haj Amin al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem. Al-Husseini's granddaughter married Abu Hassan, creating a web of ties between Nazi collaborators and Palestinian militants. The book further implicates figures like François Genoud, a Swiss Nazi who advised Arab nationalists and had links to PLO terrorists. These alliances, Constantine argues, reveal a pattern of opportunism and moral compromise that has defined U.S. intelligence operations for decades.
The financial sector is not spared in Constantine's exposé. He suggests that the
CIA played a role in the savings and loan crisis of the 1980s, with thrifts allegedly looted by the agency and the Mafia. The subprime mortgage crisis of 2008 is also scrutinized, with Constantine arguing it was a deliberate act rather than mere incompetence.
The book highlights the efforts of Nye Lavalle, a Floridian businessman who attempted to expose mortgage fraud years before the crisis. Lavalle's reports, corroborated by a law firm, were ignored, allowing figures like Fred Malek, a Nixon aide and Fannie Mae audit committee member, to turn a blind eye to systemic looting.
Constantine also explores the rise of neoconservatism and its ties to the military-industrial complex. He critiques figures like Michael Ledeen, Eliot Cohen and Paul Wolfowitz, whose policies, he argues, led to disastrous foreign interventions and the rise of extremist groups. The media, too, comes under fire for allegedly promoting neoconservative agendas and war propaganda.
One of the book's most chilling sections examines
the 2001 anthrax attacks. Constantine suggests the attacks were part of a larger, organized effort, implicating figures like Steven Hatfill and Bruce Ivins, both linked to the U.S. Army's biological warfare program. He also raises questions about the military's use of the controversial anthrax vaccine, hinting at broader experiments with potentially deadly consequences.
The book concludes with a damning indictment of the outsourcing of intelligence operations to private contractors, such as DynCorp, which has been linked to human trafficking and child exploitation. Constantine argues these are not isolated incidents but symptoms of a
systemic problem in the exercise of American power.
"Jackals: The Stench of American Fascism" is a provocative and deeply unsettling work that challenges readers to question the narratives surrounding U.S. power and its global impact.
