[…] the Peoples Temple, she summarises the conspiracists’ point of view, which holds ‘that people in Jonestown were murdered by U.S. government agent agents – either military or intelligence. These agents,’ she continues, ‘committed the murders to conceal some other, more damaging information…’.(3) Well, fair enough. The definition certainly describes the point of view of […]
[…] sabotage or a lack of security for the crash, Lt. Gen. Ahmad Gul will almost certainly have to step down as head of the powerful Inter Services Intelligence organisation, ISI. As head of ISI, Gul is the key figure involved in the training and equipping of the mojahedin based around Peshawar, and is their […]
[…] in parapolitics in the United States. And not before time. The interest in conspiracies is simply reality breaking through. The Reagan-Thatcher years saw unprecedented expansions of unregulated intelligence and military agencies, and breathtaking multi-billion rip-offs (most obviously, in the U.S., the S and L scam; in the UK, privatisation). No one should be remotely […]
[…] chemical and biological weapons were ‘blowback’ from U.S. activities. Creating blowback is one of the things the CIA – no, let’s be fair: the U.S. military and intelligence agencies in general – are good at.

[…] text of a speech given by Fidel Castro the day after the shooting. Fidel’s speech is rather striking: 24 hours after the shooting he – or his intelligence people – had already spotted the attempts in the immediate aftermath to portray Oswald as pro-Soviet and pro-Castro. We get letters from Kruschev to Castro; we […]
[…] and propaganda. The name reminds me of the Institute for the Study of Conflict and this may turn out to be another in the evolving sequence of intelligence fronts which includes ISC, Forum World Features and Control Risks. Moral Re-armament MRA last appeared on the fringes of the miners’ strike. Now Manchester Chief Constable […]
[…] exaggerated his claims to have been a parachutist and the organiser of a display parachuting team run by the British Army. (And thus his other claims about intelligence operations in Northern Ireland should not be taken seriously…..) In 1990, in a piece called ‘The Secret Life of Walter Mitty’ in the Spectator (24 March […]
[…] Mellon University; and the University of Maryland.’(5) But these stories raise one obvious problem: if what the mind control victims are saying is true, the US military/ intelligence has had much more advanced technology than this since the late 1980s, when the ‘hearing voices’ phenomenon first appeared.(6) The ‘microwave audio effect’, for example, mentioned […]
