... using B61-11 tactical nuclear weapons against Libya. The second Bush administration threatened the use of the same nuclear weapons during the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq; the Obama administration contemplated their use during the 2011 NATO bombings of Libya; Sen. Hilary Clinton has told MSNBC that she would support a nuclear attack on Iran, in defence of Israel. Based on Burr and Kimball's conclusions, none of these threats had any impact on their recipients in terms of altering their behaviour – not even the alarms triggered by the Able Archer exercise, which a lone Russian intelligence officer decided to ignore.1 Often these nuclear threats and alerts have been described as essential to US credibility. That ...

Along the way they tell us lots about the fractious history of Douglas Murray's Centre for Social Cohesion, the role of William Shawcross as chairman of the Charity Commission and the ...

... gangsters, together with their OSS supporters, to Formosa. There the Kuomintang (KMT) warlords subjugated the island's indigenous population and waited until MacArthur or some other great American appeared to lead them across the straits to restored power on the mainland. In the 1950s the so-called China Lobby enjoyed a status not unlike that enjoyed by the Israel lobby today. It is probably no accident that both KMT-ruled Formosa and Israel are substantial hubs for the whole range of offshore illicit traffic, whether drugs, weapons or money itself. Like the KMT, Israel enjoys the more or less unconditional support of the US regime, especially its intelligence community, which maintains close professional links ...

The reader could be forgiven for thinking that there is a subtext at work here of European colonialism bad, enlightened US arrangements good. Fourthly: nowhere in the very extensive discussions in this book about Iraq is any mention made of the significant role played by Israel in persistently lobbying the US (and others) that a pre-emptive war against Saddam Hussein was justified, and in providing 'intelligence' of a dubious value. Given the range of material now in the public domain, this is simply not good enough.7 The author is on stronger ground when he points out 7 See in ...
