[…] it. We gave out copies of Lobster 11, talked briefly, answered one or two questions, said this story of covert manipulation of British politics was the British Watergate – that was the heading on our press release – and got back on the train. I thought that would be that. The journalists would read […]

[…] its publisher on the eve of its appearance. I am grateful to Lobster for reviving ‘Transnationalised Repression’. Though the essay starts from events of the seventies ( Watergate, the murder of Orlando Letelier in Washington, the Nixon war on drugs) which have since passed into history, the essay also builds to a general overview […]

[…] The system is able to bring a maverick agency (like the FBI under Hoover) back into line. The classic example of this is the Presidency, Nixon and Watergate.

[…] Paris peace talks (an early ‘October Surprise’), no discussion of Nixon’s links with Howard Hughes, and the links to that vast intelligence underworld. Nixon’s defining moments, the Watergate scandal, his impeachment, and resignation, exist in a similarly conspiracy-free light. Greenberg repeatedly quotes with approval those reporters who admit to having been fooled by Tricky […]

[…] content is mostly Anglo-American, especially after WW2. It is done chronologically, so you get odd sequences of subjects: Gehlen, Roswell, Operation Paperclip, the murder of Gandhi; and Watergate, Littlejohn, Kincora, Allende; and AIDS conspiracy, Iran-Contra conspiracy, Hilda Murrel, Get Scargill, assassination of Mrs Ghandi. And so on. I haven’t read the whole book but […]
