[…] pp. 107-111 revealed similar stories. Elphick’s is the first study of the Far East debacle of 1941/1942 to be produced after the release of previously withheld documents. See Tom Bower’s Blind Eye to Murder – Britain, America and the Purging of Nazi Germany – A Pledge Betrayed (1981) p. 283. Bower calls Stokes extreme right.
[…] it seems an employee of Collins Radio, who had a security clearance, was parked in the car park where Oswald allegedly dropped a jacket shortly after the murder of Officer Tippit. (This is in a volume of the House Select Committee on Assassinations but I don’t have the reference at hand. If someone can […]
Henry McDonald and Jim Cusack London: Penguin, 2004, £12.99, p/b Henry McDonald’s highly readable recent book with Jim Cusack on the Ulster Defence Association (UDA) is everything that other recent offerings on the subject were not. On the one hand, it avoids the kind of borderline homo-erotic sensationalism, in which the atrocities of self-serving … Read more
[…] rambling man who had trudged from the wreck of the Bf110 in Scotland was not in fact Hess, but a ‘double’, substituted by the SS after the murder of Hess. This theory draws some support from the discovery of yet another flight blotted from RAF records in the month of May 1941. Ten days […]

It is up to government to come up with the solutions. … Read more
[…] into Wallace’s allegations (see Lobster 16), and a couple of years later when an ex-Army prisoner contacted Holroyd and Wallace with a very striking story of state murder and cover-up. Eventually the story didn’t check out and they concluded that it had been an attempt to get them to endorse a false story and […]
[…] – essentially relief that a ‘Marxist’ had been got for the dirty deed. For their journals show that they initially expected to get the blame for the murder and were afraid of the consequences. What Kolky singularly fails to do is (a) explain who these people are – no sociology/psychology, and (b) account for […]
