[…] scandal took place. These articles are, literally, just the tip of an iceberg of colossal dimensions. When – if – all this comes out it will make Watergate look relatively insignificant. However, for the moment all we can offer is these two pieces, and it is appropriate that it is the Ramsay half of […]
[…] attempt to fit UK events into the framework provided by Gemstone. On the first page we get Miller, Judah Binstock, Lansky, Luciano, Nixon, Onassis, Danite Mormons (?), Watergate, Hughes, Kennedy, CIA JFK, the Warren Commission……It’s a farrago in which one or two suggestive facts are buried under a torrent of nonsensical assertions. For Gemstone […]
[…] creation of a ‘totalitarian bureaucracy’. Buckley had been recruited to the CIA out of Yale. His case officer at the Agency was E. Howard Hunt, novelist and Watergate conspirator. Buckley co-founded The National Review with former Trotskyite, James Burnham, who also worked for the CIA. Buckley got his wish for a bureaucratic dictatorship when […]
Will the Illuminati arrive in black helicopters or Nazi-designed UFO’s? We are currently awash in dotty conspiracy theories. This is an interesting phenomenon even if the content of most of them is almost totally unreliable – at best. Some of this is the spin-off from the Oklahoma bombing and the media’s discovery of the militias. […]
[…] can decide? Lane gets the same treatment for – you can guess – going into court to defend US magazine The Spotlight, when it was sued by Watergate burglar Howard Hunt. (Lane’s book about this event is reviewed in Lobster 23, p. 35 (2) So, if two early JFK theorists are now hob-nobbing with […]

[…] against the Labour Government — the Agee-Hosenball expulsions and the Aubery, Berry and Campbell (ABC) trial for example. And these were mostly triggered by the fall-out from Watergate and Vietnam in the United States. The people in London who went spook hunting in 1975/6 did so because the idea had been suggested to them […]
[…] 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 […]
[…] was before I moved to Berkeley — certainly this couldn’t happen there. Now I was fundamentally upset, and started collecting investigative books and building a clipping file. Watergate was also in the news, and several of those players were former USC fraternity rats like me, only a few years older. I was beginning to […]
