From Tony Hollick A Response to David Guyatt’s Operation Black Dog, in Lobster 35. All aircraft and ordnance information is from Modern Warplanes, by Doug Richardson, Salamander Books, 1982. It would have been Saddam Hussein’s most heartfelt wish, to have the US attack Iraq with nerve gas during the 1991 Gulf War. He could then […]
[…] was again: break-ins, pranks, things left in the house, nuisance calls – the familiar repertoire. Which is to say: we still have a secret state whose legal, intelligence and security wings are virtually unregulated. There are now elaborate procedures mimicking regulation – both Kennedy and Henderson are exploring these – but the state can […]
[…] claimed to be confidential briefings “off the record”. The real reason which could not be told publicly for our entry to the common market was because our intelligence service had learned the Soviet Unions had plans to invade Western Europe and these would be carried out once the trade unions in Western Europe led […]
[…] him by launching the largest private sector political warfare campaign in history against him. But there are other factors. For an American politician, getting embroiled with the intelligence services or the military looks almost uniquely dangerous. There are also two more general reasons for the inertia. The Democrats are reluctant to criticise America, domestically […]
Introduction I began writing this in the early 1980s. If you were then reading the Guardian or the Observer, and knew a little, simple economics, it didn’t take genius to notice that while the UK’s manufacturing economy was being decimated by Conservative Party economic policy, the City of London was booming.

[…] published by him in Dundalk in the Republic of Ireland to circumvent censorship, it was subsequently republished in an expanded edition. Under the new title, The British Intelligence Services in Action, it has become a modern classic, is virtually impossible to now locate, and still compares well with subsequent volumes by Martin Dillon, Paul […]
[…] agency in the covert alliance is simply doing what it is told. Nothing has changed in 20 years, the UN is still a prime target for US intelligence and, doubt-less, little old New Zealand is still doing its bit.'(3) Were an equivalent report on GCHQ to turn up in the UK, would any of […]
[…] vile vibes of any photocopy shop! The Jonestown section is very thorough, and Bowart makes a strong – if perhaps exaggerated – case for some sort of intelligence connection. Likewise for the horrific events in Waco, Texas. The mind control transmitter section, though, is disappointing. I too have read the articles suggesting we plant […]
[…] were so clear-cut. One of the things that some of the Greenham Common women reported was ‘voices in the head’; and I have a 1976 US Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) report, ‘Biological Effects of Electromagnetic Radiation’ which notes (p. 2): ‘The potential for the development of a number of antipersonnel applications is suggested by […]
[…] book is over 440 pages, only 153 pages are the author’s. The remaining pages are duplicated copies of documents, released long time ago by the US Defense Intelligence Agency, which are readily available on the Internet. Most of the content of Rifat’s text contains serious flaws. There is no documentation to support his assertions […]
