[…] we can all study it — they gave it to a tame historian, hoping to bask in lots of favourable publicity while helping Mitrokhin to supplement his MI6 pension. The spooks’ chosen ghost-writer, Christopher Andrew, is a disingenuous creep who has sold out his academic integrity to slavishly toe the secret state’s party line […]

[…] with the cooperation/protection of the Bulgarian state. It is an unexceptional picture. Intelligence services all over the world are plugged into the drugs/guns business.

[…] the other hand, maybe he didn’t trust Mr Blair and went to the meetings wired. In Lobster 9, in 1985, Ashdown was named as having been in MI6 by Steve Dorril, in the first batch of what eventually became the Who’s Who of the British Secret State. Though I cannot remember why Dorril thought […]

Alien baloney In Nexus vol 6 no 2 is another dollop of what seems to me to be obvious disinformation about UFOs and the US government.
