[…] thereby to draw some very general conclusions about the nature and meaning of police power. I suggested that the audience might bear one very simple criterion in mind when considering the changing nature of police power, namely the high level of arrests over the last few years: 10,000 during the miners’ strike; 200-400 during […]
[…] but the effect can be unintentionally comic: ‘Roy wants a coalition government and expects to see one in the first half of this year….Roy said he wouldn’t mind whether Wilson or Callaghan led the new government but made it clear he would expect to succeed whichever of them took it on.’ (January 1 1975, […]
[…] and though it is generally regarded as bad form to speak ill of the dead, this is a very poor book. This is Keith’s survey of the mind control story: Cameron, Delgado, Esterbrook, Persinger, West, HAARP – all the usual names are here and given cursory treatments in short chapters.

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 […]
[…] of him,’ I replied. ‘Why?’ It turned out Spencer had been asking questions about a rather sensitive American project whose initials are HAARP which links to various mind control and weather modification projects. This was about the only time I made a correct prediction. I said to the researcher something to the effect that […]
[…] the loony fringe of America (William Cooper and dumber), via an enormous range of writing on the entire spectrum of single issue subjects (murders, scandals, conspiracies, CIA, mind control, etc.), through to major, solid pieces about the New World Order, MAI, consumer boycotts and so forth. The ratio of junk to the worthwhile used […]
[…] being a conflict between radical Islam and ‘the enlightenment’.
