[…] September 1987. Letters to the Editor Sir, I realise that I must temper my language in reference to the recent article by David McKittrick, ‘Doubts over Ulster murder claims’ (Independent 2/9/87). Anger at such an appalling piece is not the way to respond to this totally biased reporting. A close look at the facts […]
[…] E. Moldea W.W. Norton, London and New York 1995 I didn’t notice this when it was first published and came across a remaindered copy. Unlike the JFK murder, this case is absolutely straightforward. The forensic evidence is quite clear and inarguable: Robert Kennedy was shot three times at point-blank range – i.e. a range […]
[…] Belfast journalist, Martin O’Hagan, who was publishing it in the Sunday World. Setting out to investigate allegations that the RUC was colluding with Protestant paramilitaries in the murder of Catholics, McPhilemy’s researcher on the programme made contact with O’Hagan who put him in touch with his source, Sands.

The police officers who signed up for it didn’t think it would take long to do. ‘We thought it was going to be a fairly routine investigation. We didn’t expect to find that there … Read more
[…] the Christian population and other groups are airbrushed. In addition, it has excelled at ‘bouncing responsibility’: For example Iraqis, it claims, were to blame for the shameful murder of Shia cleric Abd al-Majid Khu’i whose memory has since been traduced because he accepted CIA money. The truth is that this vital, courageous man returned […]
[…] first discussed the same deals (San Francisco Chronicle, 1/6/87, from Washington Post Wire). Shortly before his death in July 1986 – which many believe to have been murder (Executive Intelligence Review, August 1, 1986, p. 47; Los Angeles Times, June 12/13, 1987) – Hashemi also offered to help the government gain release of the […]
‘Modernism is political’. Okay, it’s not the snappiest start to an article I know, but it gets to the bottom of the phenomenon that is LM, formerly Living Marxism, currently Last Magazine. Confused? Yes they are, but not as confused as the liberal intelligentsia who have been trying to decode what LM means for the … Read more
[…] he can do a lot of damage.’ (47) This last statement is particuarly evocative.
