War Against the Poor: Low-Intensity Conflict and… de Jack Nelson-Pallmeyer

The strategy of low-intensity conflict (or LIC) is a little-known yet sophisticated and deadly form of US intervention in the Third World. Drawing on his own experience of living and working in Central America, the author shows how LIC victimizes the poor through elections, economic exploitation, even -- as with the contras -- outright terrorism.

Jesus Against Christianity: Reclaiming the Missing… de Jack Nelson-Pallmeyer

"Jack Nelson-Pallmeyer joins a distinguished company of writers who, as an act of faithfulness, are attempting to reinvent Christianity. None of them, however, makes a more trenchant case for the ways Christianity has twisted Jesus' God of Compassion into a God of Violence than Nelson-Pallmeyer. Jesus Against Christianity attempts to recover Jesus at the heart of a Christianity transformed." Walter Wink
