[…] – the Polish Pope – was told the ‘third secret’ of the Fatima revelations; and that this ‘third secret’ spoke of his assassination and suggested an anti- communist crusade. West reproduces the text of this on p.5 – it was first released onto the Vatican’s Web site! – and there is nothing in there […]

His appointment was rejected, much to the delight of the oil and gas lobby, cementing Johnson’s position as their chief mouthpiece in the legislature. Following Olds’ […]
[…] to suggest that the anti-Castro Cubans – with organised crime and/or CIA links – planned to kill JFK, and leave a dead Oswald framed as a pro-Castro, communist assassin, triggering another US invasion of Cuba and scuppering JFK’s plans to do a deal with Castro.

Berlusconi emerged after the death of the Communist Berlinger in 1984, while Blair moved (famously quickly) after the death of John Smith in 1994. Both rode high on the promises of constitutional reform; Berlusconi […]
