By coincidence Ledeen was much involved on the first occasion the late Pope came to wide public attention in May 1981. Soon after the election of US President Ronald Reagan an attempt was made to assassinate John Paul II in St Peter's Square. While it was known almost immediately that the would-be assassin was a Turkish fascist, Mehmet Ali Agca, a Reader's Digest article, 'The Plot to Kill the Pope', a little later marked the start of a concerted US-based publicity effort to blame the outrage on ...

... media figures via mind-controlled, satanically-programmed courtesans and bagmen. Bowart does not suggest that the Devil is behind this: only that the trappings of Satanism are used to terrify and indoctrinate the mind controlees during childhood. In one fascinating chapter, he interviews an anonymous woman who claims to have been mind-controlled into becoming the sex slave of Bob Hope! Reagan, Bush and other politicos are mentioned in the same context. I am willing to believe the worst about anybody, especially Bob Hope, but.... why bother? Very wealthy entertainers and politicians have wives, keep mistresses and frequent hookers. Why do they need mindless sex slaves? Tabloid readers may recall the the case ...

... . Futile in their apparent ambition to gild the lily, but, nonetheless, interesting. Kennedy was, indeed, a Cold War Warrior, but not just one. Parmet's chronicle of the Kennedy presidency is pretty accurate but he fails to convey any size of the change from the Eisenhower/Dulles era. We tend to think of the Reagan administration as representing a big shift to the right. This isn't really accurate- not in the whole post-war period. All they've actually done is return to the rhetoric (mostly) and the behaviour (partly) of the pre-Kennedy era. Little of what has been said or done by the Reagan administration would have seemed that surprising coming ...

Peter Dailey, US Ambassador to Ireland, noting the trend of antipathy to American policies, reported to the White House on ways of strengthening support for Cruise and Pershing, recommending that Reagan appoint an 'Arms Reduction Ombudsman'- not to help with arms reduction, but to do public relations work for Reagan's policies.

Regan's dismissive characterization hardly did justice to the sales skills of North's Mideast contacts. 'It was a brutal, ugly story,' said the CIA's chief operations officer, Clair George. 'People were selling information, selling hostages, selling their rings, selling their clothes, selling letters ...

BAP's Origins The first recorded mention of the need for a 'successor generation' came in 1983 when President Ronald Reagan spoke to a group, including Rupert Murdoch and Sir James Goldsmith, in the White House. The reason for the 21 March gathering that year was US fear of the rising opposition to the siting of Cruise and Pershing missiles in Western Europe. Reagan's administration took this movement so seriously that it recalled its ambassador to Ireland, Peter Dailey ...

... Britain resisted the Soviet menace and tried to spread freedom.( [6]) Along the way he revisits old arguments. Take the opposition in the early 1980s to the deployment of Cruise and Pershing missiles in Europe. For Kamm, these reflected'....a curious belief – reinforced by loose talk from a new President, Ronald Reagan – that a new generation of intermediate missiles was being deployed in order to fight a "limited" nuclear war in Europe. The notion was preposterous. The rationale for Nato's deployment was the opposite.' At best, Kamm hasn't done his homework. There was a good deal of nuclear war-fighting talk among the Pentagon and its satellite ...

One of the better post-war Washington reporters has been Godfrey Hodgson. But even his Guardian obituary of Charles Z Wick, the Hollywood producer and political fundraiser Reagan put in charge of the United States Information Agency in 1981, fell way short of his subject's significance for British readers. Yes, it was important to be reminded that Wick instituted a USIA blacklist that included Coretta Scott King and Walter Cronkite. But there was nothing of Wick's important role in domestic European politics during the revived Cold War ...
