[…] probably most Japanese as well. This is a Japan, as Whiting describes in abundant detail, made up of ‘gangsters, corrupt entrepreneurs, courtesans, seedy sports promoters, streetwise opportunists, intelligence agents, political fixers and financial manipulators’. More to the point, he also traces the history of the complicated entanglement of the US government, or more specifically […]
[…] article Foundations and Empire, produced by the Solidarity group circa 1970, and possibly part of a magazine, documents a number of connections between the British and American intelligence services and their fronts and GMWU (as the GMB was then) officials and officers in the1950s and 60s. 7 Most people seem to recollect that this […]
[…] two further occasions in 1983. 26 NOV 72 Serial No: D 7364 C. I. A. This Certificate of Credentials is issued under the authority of the Central Intelligence Agency.

The Birchers claimed that America […]
[…] that has been used to cloak research and applications of mind-control activity (emphasis added). Given Scott Jones’ status and his years of access to high level military, intelligence and political circles in the US, this is extremely interesting.
