In late 2015, convicted pedophile, international dealmaker, and cooperating witness in Special Counsel Robert Mueller's Russia investigation George Nader convened a secret meeting aboard a massive luxury yacht in the Red Sea. Nader pitched Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Emirati Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi and other Middle Eastern leaders a plan for a new pro-U.S., pro-Israel alliance of Arab nations that would fundamentally alter the geopolitics of the Middle East while marginalizing Iran, Qatar, and Turkey. To succeed, the plan would need a highly placed American politician willing to drop sanctions on Russia so that Vladimir Putin would in turn agree to end his support for Iran. They agreed the perfect American partner was Donald Trump, who had benefited immensely from his Saudi, Emirati, and Russian dealings for many years, and who, in 2015, became the only U.S. presidential candidate to argue for a unilateral end to Russian sanctions and a far more hostile approach to Iran. So begins New York Times bestselling author Seth Abramson's explosive new book Proof of Conspiracy: How Trump's International Collusion Threatens American Democracy , a story of international intrigue whose massive cast of characters includes Israeli intelligence operatives, Russian oligarchs, Saudi death squads, American mercenary companies, Trump's innermost circle, and several members of the Trump family as well as Trump himself—all part of a clandestine multinational narrative that takes us from Washington, D.C. and Moscow to the Middle Eastern capitals of Riyadh, Abu Dhabi, Jerusalem, Cairo, Tehran, and Doha. Proof of Conspiracy is a chilling and unforgettable depiction of the dangers America and the world now face. 533 Electronic reproduction.|bNew York :|cSt. Martin's Press, |d2019.|nRequires OverDrive Read (file size: N/A KB) or Adobe Digital Editions (file size: 1782 KB) or Kobo app or compatible Kobo device (file size: N/A KB) or Amazon Kindle (file size: N/A KB). 650 7 Politics.|2OverDrive 650 17 Nonfiction.|2OverDrive 655 7 Electronic books.|2local 776 1 |cOriginal|z9781250256713 856 40 |uhttps://naperville.overdrive.com/media/4608073 |zAvailable on OverDrive/Libby 856 42 |3Excerpt|uhttps://samples.overdrive.com/?crid=4565b83a- e75e-49f6-affc-11b6b9180b6f&.epub-sample.overdrive.com |zSample 856 42 |3Image|uhttps://img1.od-cdn.com/ImageType-100/2390-1/ %7B4565B83A-E75E-49F6-AFFC-11B6B9180B6F%7DImg100.jpg |zLarge cover image 856 42 |3Thumbnail|uhttps://img1.od-cdn.com/ImageType-200/2390-1/ %7B4565B83A-E75E-49F6-AFFC-11B6B9180B6F%7DImg200.jpg |zThumbnail cover image
