... uk (Issue 23) June 1992 Last | Contents | Next Issue 23 Shorts Yorkshire Post (14 March '92) reported the admission by the Ministry of Defence that in an operation called HORNBEAM, trawlers had been used during the first Cold War to spy on Soviet shipping. But the MOD spokesperson refused to confirm that some trawlers had carried intelligence officers. Statewatch Bulletin (Jan/Feb 1992) includes an important update to their paper on Gladio network, quoting from the Belgian parliamentary commission into the subject. The update describes the network's origins and some of the later developments in Belgium. The Gladio paper is available from Statewatch at 2.00 from PO Box 1516, London ...

... , when there was little public information and what existed was hard to retrieve. Thirty years later, with computers and an enormous amount of available information, James Carroll has written a huge book elaborating Bosch's thesis. Around that core are subsidiary themes. One is a personal memoir. The author's father was General Carroll, head of the Defence Intelligence Agency in the 1960s, and as a child the author played in the corridors of the Pentagon, turning against American power and militarism during the Vietnam War. A major theme is a history of the generation and management of 'threats' to America to justify the spending on weapons. US ruling elites emerged from WW2 believing that the only ...

... Labour MPs and groups alleged to support the IRA - the Campaign for Democracy in Ulster, Anti-Internment League, Troops Out Movement, British Withdrawal from Northern Ireland Group, Irish Political Hostages Release Committee and the Campaign for Social Justice are all listed as "Labour's New Left in Northern Ireland" - an interesting if wholly misleading and barely intelligible description. Named in this context as "key personalities" are Paul Rose (who gets lots of detailed attention) and Orme, Ogden, Owen, Delargy, Heffer, Miller, Brockway, Newens, Allaun and Cunningham, as well as those notorious left-wingers of the period, Brian Walden, Reg Prentice and Bob Mellish ...

... British state in the mid-1980s to train, arm and direct loyalist para-militaries against the IRA. The one piece missing from his analysis is evidence of the political dimension. Did the Conservative government approve of this? Did they know of this? Larkin presumes so but cannot demonstrate it. Larkin lacks a senior British Army, intelligence officer or civil servant, let alone a cabinet minister, willing to admit this was the policy. (2 ) For example, he writes p.42: 'this elite group had made a decision to prosecute a "dirty war"......which in its late 1980s and early 90s phase was to use ...

... the founders of Hizbullah, Sheikh Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah, by car bomb in Beirut. The attack failed in its objective, but there was some 'collateral damage'. While Fadlallah was untouched, some eighty bystanders, men, women and children, were killed and over two hundred injured. The terrorist organisation responsible for this attack was the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).(1 ) An overwhelming case can be made that the CIA has been the most dangerous terrorist organisation at work in the world since the Second World War. It has over-thrown governments, sponsored wars, carried out assassinations and terrorist attacks, organised and financed death squads, kidnapped and tortured, trafficked ...

The computer couldn't tell us who was or wasn't a spy, but it could assess people as to what extent they were a security risk. Do you know who came top of our security risk list? None other than your own Admiral of the Fleet, Lord Mountbatten. He rated six times higher than Philby. If ...
