[…] what the British government was doing about the problem. The Hansards automatically went world-wide to the relevant ministers in their governments. As a result, and keeping in mind this is a false example, senior health professionals overseas, supported by the relevant minister, would be in a position to go to their governments pointing out […]
[…] to an interview with Jonathan Vankin, author of what sounds like a kind of compendium of conspiracies and conspiracy theories, Conspiracies, Cover-ups and Crimes: Political Manipulation and Mind Control in America (Paragon Books). Vankin offered this: ‘The accepted paradigm — the established view that the conspiracy theorists are struggling to overthrow — might be […]
[…] the motive was regime change; what happened behind the scenes over the second security council resolution; and the still unexplained reason for Lord Goldsmith’s quick change of mind culminating in his advice that starting the war was legal even without UN backing.’ Berlins speculated: ‘Even more shocking, if true, is the allegation that, many […]
On reaching 50 Reaching 50 issues is something. More or less than I hoped? Obviously, it never occurred to me twenty plus years ago that I would still be doing this now.
