... are complicated subjects that cannot possibly be dealt with in their entirety here, (1 ) I will focus my attention on two narrower issues. Firstly, what elements in the Turkish extreme right was Agca affiliated with? (2 ) And secondly, could this affiliation in and of itself have provided him with a strong motive to try and murder the Pope? Although these particular questions are not terribly difficult to answer if one is familiar with the historical background of various Turkish political groupings and ideological currents, most of those who have sought to analyse 'the plot to kill the Pope' lack precisely this familiarity. (3 ) One result is that both those who accept and those ...

... when they weren't engaged in obstruction, cover-up and – occasionally – killing. The powers-that-be in Stormont and London chose not to do anything about this for fear of alienating what it perceived as the host (Protestant) population. In the earliest mainstream account of these Loyalist killings, Martin Dillon and Denis Lehane's Political Murder in Northern Ireland (1973), the absence of prosecutions for these murders was attributed to the police force, the RUC, being overwhelmed by the number of deaths. On the ground, however, the fact that there was also collusion between the state and the Loyalist paramilitaries was known by British Army personnel: Fred Holroyd, for ...

In Estes' version the JFK killing is merely one element in the wider scandal, the core of which were his secret payments to politicians, notably vice president Johnson. This is a story about American politics and business and what happens when the hidden business funding is threatened with exposure. When the story of Estes' business ...

... to the Justice for Asil Nadir Committee and there is pretty convincing evidence there that he got screwed. But I was most struck by a document which claims to be pages from a CIA analysis of the so-called Supergun affair – that bizarre project to build for Iraq a 'gun' with a 750 kilometre range, which ended with the murder of the 'gun's' designer, Gerald Bull. A declassified but redacted version of this report is on the Web.1 At jancom.org is what is said to be three pages of the redacted material from that report. And this is explosive stuff. In recounting the US-UK (but apparently mostly UK in this account ...

... I argue that Nixon's cover-up strategy reflected his knowledge of deep political intrigues dating back to the 1950s and early 1960s – above all a secret the CIA would go to almost any lengths to protect: its involvement with notorious gangsters in plots to assassinate a foreign head of state, Fidel Castro, and its possible indirect involvement in the murder of President Kennedy. This article frames Nixon's invocation of 'the Bay of Pigs thing' in the context of a multi-year cover-up by powerful forces in the U.S . 'deep state' of secret crimes committed by senior intelligence officials and organized crime leaders in the name of fighting Communism. Key players included CIA directors ...

... in the loyalist campaign and the Brian Nelson case provided concrete evidence for this. Nick Davies's new book, Ten Thirty Three, explores the Nelson affair and raises issues that must not be allowed to rest. While it is absolutely clear that the loyalist campaign was a great help to the British, Davies goes further. He argues that the murder gangs were actually being directed by British intelligence; in effect, the British were carrying out a campaign of assassination by proxy. Nelson, a member of the UDA, presented himself to the British intelligence apparatus at the end of 1985. He was put to work as agent 'ten thirty three' by the covert Force Research Unit ( ...

... floor before the motorcade appeared. Armstrong's thesis makes Loy Factor's story more plausible than it had seemed. Although Armstrong believes the CIA did it, he is aware of the Malcolm 'Mac' Wallace and LBJ thread which has been slowly insinuating itself into the JFK assassination research community. On p.40 Armstrong gives half a page to the 1951 murder by 'Mac' Wallace of a former boyfriend of LBJ's sister. On p.656 Armstrong cites the Sample-Collum book, The Men on the 6th Floor, which includes Loy Factor's 'confession', as the source of a claim about the identity of the man impersonating Oswald at the Soviet Embassy in Mexico City but doesn't mention Loy ...
