... Holding Pattern Garrick Alder Doppelgangers Hillary Clinton's apparent fainting spell during the 9/11 commemoration in September led to an explosion of theorising. The right-wing, who had been on her case over an alleged 'secret illness' for some time, went absolutely bananas.1 This cloud of conspiracy conjecture followed her into the car that rushed her away from the commemoration, across town, up the elevator to the apartment of her daughter Chelsea (where Mrs Clinton went to get herself recomposed) and back out into the street when she re-emerged an hour or two later. The big thing (for about five minutes) was the claim that Mrs Clinton had been replaced by a body-double during her brief ...

... with the assistance of the West German Cardinals, organised the election of Wojtyla, the current Pope. An earlier report (IHT 16th February 1983) that the Bulgarian newsagency had a report claiming that the previous Pope had been poisoned. Pfaff comments that the Soviet analysis shows" an astonishing fear of American power, of the effectiveness of CIA conspiracies." Astonishing, and, in Pfaff's view, quite absurd of course. On Brzezinski's role in all this I have seen nothing, and on the machinations behind the election of the present Pope I know only one account so far- Andrew M. Greeley's The Making Of The Popes (London 1979) though the recent Pontiff, ...

... of experts in Washington inside and outside government. I was also a personal eyewitness to the falsity of a story published in the Washington Post (and subsequently retracted) which exonerated the Contras from involvement in drug-trafficking.(2) My researches into U.S. government involvement with drug-traffickers date back to 1970 when I wrote a book, The War Conspiracy, about the origins of U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War. I returned to this topic yet again in 1986, when I noticed that certain Cuban exiles I had already written about, some of them indicted or convicted drug-traffickers, were involved in the Contra support movement in Costa Rica.(3) After twenty-five years of research ...

... are idiots: for the briefest acquaintance with the FOI schemes of other countries would show that they are always used by the media; and in even a minimalist version of liberal democracy the media plays a role as the primary informer of the citizen. The ongoing Di show The report of Operation Paget, the Metropolitan Police's investigation of the Di conspiracy theories, available on the Net in PDF form (see Terry Hanstock's 'Re:' in this issue), is worth looking at. For the student of the British state there are some interesting things in this. In particular there is the curious business of the Met team getting access to MI6's data bases to research the various claims ...

There is nothing that strikes me as startling in them, but, if indeed genuine, they confirm some of the picture of the Israeli services which has appeared in various books.

... strengthen Ken's view, but what is provided here is a mile short of being evidence. The authors devote just one page to the security services, quote a couple of books, and get the name of the former D-G of MI5 wrong, calling him Maurice Hanley! If the Healey faction of the WRP have any evidence on the alleged conspiracy to destabilize the WRP it is not here. Some years ago I spent an entertaining couple of hours with one of those named in this book as part of the conspiracy to smash the WRP. She tried to persuade me that some of the Healey faction represented by this book were.... agents of the state. And ...

... Taylor claimed that the relationship was innocent. They did meet at parties and occasionally went out to dinner together, but that was all. The Scotland Yard Detective Tony Lundy is photographed at a party. Also in the photograph is Roy Garner, later convicted in a massive cocaine bust, and two other criminals. The authors of the Cocaine Conspiracy caption the photograph "Just good friends'. Although they do not add a question mark at the end, it is clear from the tone of the book which way we are supposed to read that phrase. It would appear to be rather simple. Tony Lundy, assumed by many to be the Yard's most successful thief-taker, was ...

Despite Mellen's tremendous research none of this is clear yet. Billie Sol Estes, who named Wallace as part of the JFK conspiracy, is dismissed after Mellen shows that he was a fraudster and a liar and compares and contrasts the many vague, contradictory and ambiguous things Estes said about the events of 22 November 1963, of which he had no firsthand knowledge any way. But Estes is not the only source on all this. Long before his allegations had been ...
