[…] 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 […]
[…] On a general level there is no reason to suppose that much work has been done that examines and scrutinises democracy building to an adequate level, never mind penetrating the intrigue or following the money. Wersch & Zeeuw (themselves funded by Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs via the Clingendael Institute) state that apart from […]
[…] 2 Though I still don’t buy Walter Bowart’s Satan’s Slaves Meet Black Helicopters thesis, the winter 1995 issue of Unclassified offers one of the footnotes Bowart’s Operation Mind Control 2 cries out for, an article about a CIA-sponsored paedophile group called ‘The Finders’.

About Mozambique or Nicaragua, they knew the best part of fuck-all; but they didn’t need to: if X was fighting a socialist government, X deserved their […]
