[…] one hand, the CIA has already used involuntary experimental subjects in other programs it funded in the 1950s and 60s. Anyone who has read Walter Bowart’s Operation Mind Control and believed only a quarter of it would not find Girard’s claims about the way the CIA is behaving difficult to believe. The CIA has […]
[…] very long, have only had time to read it (quickly) once, so this is by way of an interim report. But a second reading won’t change my mind that this is a very good book. I enjoyed this more than anything else I have read for years. It is also an important book. There […]
[…] resolutely opposed to the kind of mass mobilisations that might bring it into conflict with the British Army (Cusack and McDonald, 2000). For all that the master- mind of the Loyalist No Go Areas, David Fogel, was himself a former British Army sergeant and Gusty Spence was greatly assisted by the existence of the […]
[…] practitioners of government. We are relatively free of the problems of status, of precedence, departmental attitudes and evasions of personal responsibility, which create the official cast of mind. We do not have to develop, like the Parliamentarians conditioned by a lifetime, the ability to produce the ready phrase, the smart reply and the flashing […]

There is some question in my mind as to whether he was a ‘lieutenant’ of Kodama’s as early as 1962, or whether he only became one later. The precise dating could have explanatory […]
[…] the following exchange took place. Turner (presenting book for signing after queuing briefly behind several people, including a woman wearing an Anarchist badge) ‘Hello. Do you mind a lengthy inscription?’ Rimington (smiling, flanked by several suited goons and book shop staff) ‘That depends what it is. If it’s a long one, I’ll put […]
[…] that’ on occasions. Newsnight didn’t say ‘Protheroe isn’t a spook’; or, ‘We’ll check it out’; nor even ‘It sounds unlikely to us, but we’ll bear that in mind’, all of which would have been rational responses.
