Bale Introduction Like most dramatic and unsettling political events, the attempted assassination of Pope John Paul II by Turkish gunman Mehmet Ali Agca temporarily captured the imagination of the world's media and political pundits. Although the initial public outrage and concern generally faded once it became clear that the Pope would survive, certain individuals and groups have pursued the issue for a ...

... 17. Vatican Connections Curious report in IHT (14th April 1983) that an Italian radical mag., Peace and War, had received photocopies of telegrams indicating that the US Ambassador to Italy had worked out a plan to link the Bulgarians to the shooting of the Pope. The US embassy says they're fakes. It certainly sounds implausible that anything so sensitive would be transmitted by telegram. But then Reagan has appointed a lot of dummies as ambassadors. See the list- and comments- in IHT 31st March 1983. 18. ...

... - Claire Sterling, Paul Henze and Michael Ledeen. Not only did these three have access to the most widely viewed TV slots and the most influential papers, they could also insist that no opposition views were aired alongside their own. Countless millions were fed 'KGB shoots Pope', while the acquittal of the Bulgarians last March was lucky to hit the back pages. The real plot against the Pope- by Ali Agca and his Grey Wolves comrades- is clearly visible within the context of their politics. Likewise their motives. For ...

By coincidence Ledeen was much involved on the first occasion the late Pope came ...

... , Frank, but as the BBC's erstwhile Security Correspondent, and all that implies by way of confidential briefings by the British spooks, I'm not sure you would be my idea of a 'non-partisan reporter', either. Papa! Kevin Koogan e-mailed me about the new Pope, Ratzinger, quoting the New York Times to the effect that Ratzinger had been brought to the Vatican Council at the age of 35 by Cardinal Joseph Frings of Cologne. In Koogan's book Dreamer of the Day (NY: Autonomedia, 1999), which was ...

... by the FBI, CIA, Scotland Yard and the Irish Special Branch. Thomas also referred to 'high level' sources in Washington when he told McCarthy that Gerrit was a member of the CIA, and, hinting that the Vatican was involved, mentioned that the present Pope was "the most political of all Popes". Magill doesn't make it clear whether Thomas actually got his grubby paws on any 'relevant' material, though it does state that McCarthy's papers were tampered with the night she spent at Thomas' house in Ashford ( ...

... a careful reading of the transcripts of the Senate Intelligence Committee hearings on the nomination of Robert Gates to be Director of the CIA. Consider just one incident, the textual appropriations, displacements, and strategies that surround the inquiry into the 1981 attempt on the life of Pope John Paul II. Ten texts are involved. 'Text No. 1 is a speech given by the Secretary of State Alexander Haig the day after President Reagan's inauguration, in which he links the Soviet Union to international terrorism.

... lived in a world of delusion, always believing that he was on the brink of some historic victory. His problem, common amongst top politicians, was his wish to be held in the highest regard by posterity. There is a revealing anecdote of LBJ meeting the Pope. Where the Pope gave him something of established historical value, a 14th century oil painting, the Pope got a plastic bust of LBJ. LBJ's generosity was always self-referencing, egotistical. And cheap. Much of the evidence relied on by Hershman is provided in ...
