[…] own interest and that of his office, as well as in the general interest of the Lobby. It is a responsibility which should always be kept in mind. There is no ‘association’ of Lobby journalists, but in our common interests we act collectively as the Parliamentary Lobby Journalists. It has been found convenient to […]
[…] a mosque as a fixture in her Golden Jubilee Year. Instead, they could have countered with an alternative T-shirt that challenged al-Qaida. One, in particular, comes to mind i.e. one imprinted with the image of a dead Roman Catholic priest, his dog-collar grimy, carried from the wreckage of the Twin Towers by the surviving […]
[…] in the Western world and the repudiation of all totalitarian challenges.’ Josselson was in touch with Lasky and this plan combined well with what Lasky had in mind. Again there was a delay, Wisner not giving the go-ahead until 7th April, with a budget of $50,000 allocated.(47) Arthur Schlesinger, the liberal historian and friend […]
Introduction In early January the American writer Martin Cannon, whose ‘ Mind Control and the American Government’, was published in Lobster 23, and who has a very interesting letter in this issue, offered me a big piece of his on the so-called Gemstone File. Cannon had got access to some of the original documents […]
[…] The two pieces are a reworking of some of the information we have on that fuzzy, hearsay-laden area in which drugs (especially psychedelics), the intelligence agencies and mind control programmes overlapped.

[…] 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 […]
[…] 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 […]
[…] polarisation, a con via ballot-box. A con so wicked that citizens of a little town of Beslen will be expected to be grateful for ‘the vote’. Never mind that in 2004, Beslen’s children, parents and teachers paid the price of barbaric, corrupt, ‘democratic’ (!) Russian policies in Chechnya. A con so contemptuous of its […]
