Hersh, The Dark Side of Camelot (Boston: Little Brown, 1997) Seymour Hersh is one of those figures with no real equivalent in British journalism. For one thing, the budgets, the armies of fact-checkers and, indeed, the market for this sort of extended politico-analytical foray just does not exist over here. Writing from a New York Times 'liberal' perspective, he remains- in contrast to Chomsky, Cockburn and Hitchens- very much the critical insider. In keeping with this ...

His attempts to seek answers have left him in a bureaucratic maze. Jane Affleck Background 'A most extraordinary case' said Michael Mansfield QC, describing the events at Hammersmith Police Station on the night of December 23/24 1990. Two men- Patrick Quinn, and, later, Malcolm Kennedy- were arrested and put in the same police cell for drunkenness, and Quinn was later found dead with severe injuries.

Kennedy Herbert S. Parmet (Penguin Books, London 1984) Kennedy assassination buffs- and I confess to being one in a very small way- can't resist books about the Kennedys even when they suspect there will be nothing, not a fragment, of interest about the assassination in them. The books by Parmet and Collier and Horowitz looked like being a couple of duds, but weren't quite that. What most books about the Kennedy administration ...

... a translator of poetry. He is also a scholar of the post-war history of US involvement in S.E. Asia. (See, for example, his wonderful book The War Conspiracy (US 1972) and his essay in Volume 5 of the Gavel Edition of The Pentagon Papers) But he is probably best known for his writing on the Kennedy assassination. The 1978 Penguin book, The Assassinations contains two of his essays on that subject, and they are, in my opinion, the best writing on the assassination that has been published. I have to put it that way because Scott's 'magnum opus' on the assassination, The Dallas Conspiracy, has never found a publisher. ...

... (c) www.lobster-magazine.co.uk (Issue 24) December 1992 Last| Contents| Next Issue 24 Some Notes on Occult Irrationalism and the Kennedy Assassination Scott van Wynsberghe When I began studying the Kennedy assassination, back in 1983, my naivety was considerable. It would be a few years before I fully hooked into the diffuse network of assassination researchers, and my hit-and-miss efforts to locate that fraternity produced some bizarre results during the 1985-87 period. Consulting periodical directories and other sources, I collected intriguing references to journals with the word 'conspiracy' in their titles. Silly me, I actually thought someone using that word was both serious and devoted only to assassinations and the like. What followed ...

His attempts to obtain answers have met with brick walls, and his situation has been described as Kafkaesque. Soon his complaint will be one of the first to be heard by the recently established Investigatory Powers Tribunal. Background Last Summer, Lobster drew attention to the case of Malcolm Kennedy.

... 56 'Everything is going to change' JFK and the Unspeakable: Why he died and why it matters James W. Douglass Maryknoll, New York: Orbis Books, 2008, h/b, $30.00 Reviewed by Michael Carlson I am writing this immediately after Barack Obama's victory in the US Presidential election, almost half a century after John Kennedy became the first, and thus far only, Roman Catholic to capture the office. The 1960 election is the first I remember clearly, and the issue of Kennedy's Catholicism, while perhaps not as dramatic as that of Obama's race, was a contentious one, and not just in my school-yard. It was presented more along the lines ...
