... run, briefly, in the British serious press. A couple of months later Peter Dale Scott passed through Britain and rang me. I mentioned the Kadane piece, how interesting it was in the light of his essay some years before on US involvement in the 1965 coup and massacres, and suggested we print it. A shorter version of this essay appeared in the relatively obscure Pacific Affairs some years ago and this year in a Dutch-language collection, The United States and the Overthrow of Sukarno, which, because of Scott's essay, ...

... column of 18 February 2001, Nick Cohen wondered why Matrix Chambers, of which Cherie Booth is a leading light, and which now specialises in human rights law, should have chosen to represent the military dictatorship which took over Fiji in the wake of the most recent coup led by George Speight. The military arrested Speight but acceded to his main demand that the Fijian government should be dominated by the Fijian native interest rather than that of the Fijian Indians, descendants of workers imported from India by the British in the 19th Century, ...

... A 'great venture': overthrowing the government of Iran Mark Curtis This is a slightly abridged version of part of chapter four of Mark Curtis's book The Ambiguities of Power: British Foreign Policy since 1945 (Zed Press, 1995) reviewed below. In August 1953 a coup overthrew Iran's nationalist government of Mohammed Musaddiq and installed the Shah in power.

... this hits the right targets: corporate dominance of politics, stealing the election, 9/11, the hyping of terrorism, the Patriot Act, neo-cons, the religious right – the new American Reich which Bush Jnr. has fronted since the Republicans ran their little coup in Florida.
