[…] my personal view of the named politicians was. It is, therefore, nothing short of disinformation for him to claim otherwise. p. 171 ‘Evidence of Wallace’s state of mind is contained in an essay ‘Ulster — a State of Subversion’, which he admits he wrote himself. His own conclusion was that….’ The ‘essay’ to which […]

Acid: the secret history of LSD

Book cover
Lobster Issue 35 (Summer 1998)

David Black, Vision, London, 1998, £9.99 pb I enjoyed this book hugely, and I’d recommend it to anyone remotely interested in the politics of psychedelia – apart from anything else, there are stories here you almost certainly won’t have heard. However, overall it aspires to more than it can deliver. As the title implies, the […]

A Bilderberg Press Release

Lobster Issue 35 (Summer 1998)

A Bilderberg Press Release I don’t think I’ve ever published a press release before, but this is unmistakably a press release from last year’s Bilderberg meeting.(1) There is the occasional oddity in this, possibly caused by e-mail transmission, which I’ve highlighted, and I’ve arranged the participants by country, rather than alphabetically as in the original. … Read more

Lockerbie, the octopus and the Maltese double cross

[…] Talb. After lengthy sessions with CIA personnel, the Maltese shopkeeper who had previously recognised a photograph of Talb — a 35 year-old Palestinian — apparently changed his mind and fingered a Libyan airline official in his fifties. This identification, along with allegations — later disproved — that a Swiss-made timing device for the Lockerbie […]

[…] which I’ve read a couple, but also in Jim Schnabel’s 1997 Remote Viewers, which covers very similar ground to Marrs, and in a chapter in Armen Victorian’s Mind Controllers. Of the two book-length accounts I prefer Schnabel; but if that is no longer available, Marrs’ version of the material would do. For the basic […]
