... socially radical role in 1969, as editor of The Peoples Press.(22)There is also, as we have seen, some ambiguity as to Tommy Herron's role in relation to this group. The UCA smear What is not true, but was latterly claimed, was that Elliot was leader of the mysterious Ulster Citizens Army,whose propaganda leaflets carried the Connolly Plough. The UCA was not a creation of Army Information Policy at Lisburn, though Colin Wallace has acknowleged that the Army gave the UCA material to journalists.(23) Elliot was stopped at an Army checkpoint at the spot where he was murdered a week later and the boot of his car was found to ...

... ) Counter Terrorist Intelligence Centre's 'secret' team in London is a candidate for briefings to the media on various alleged Islamists; and, if so, it beats me why the press might collude in keeping its existence (rather than its personnel) secret. This network has been operating since 2002 and has motive and means for anti-Islamist propaganda operations and for the laundering of Guantanamo and Arab states' security and intelligence information. It is allegedly a Franco-US funded operation. Given what we know about political warfare techniques, it is reasonable to ask why the media insists on being complicit in this lack of accountability. Is it, as I suspect, the fear that ...

Without any regard to us, they used our intelligence information for propaganda press leaks. They wanted to mine certainty from unconfirmed suspicion and use it as an excuse for military action. We were supposed to play the role of useful idiot thanks to whose initiative a war would be started. ' 39 And the striking thing, which no-one seems to have commented on, is that the use of ...

After the surrender of the last Italian garrison at Gendar he spent 1942 running cross-frontier intelligence and propaganda against French Somaliland which was still in Vichy hands. By then he had probably more practical experience of all aspects of field work than any other officer in East Africa Command and was posted to Nairobi as GSO 2(I ), and Chief Instructor at the Command Intelligence School.

... in Dublin in 2003. At its simplest, and to paraphrase what Irish Labour Leader Pat Rabbitte recently said about Jonty [Johnston] Brown's disclosures, in the Irish Dail in October 2005: when credible allegations as serious as this are made, they have to be the subject of independent investigation, irrespective of how they might be used as propaganda. What makes Jonty Brown's book convincing is the fact that, like Fred Holroyd, he does not condemn the RUC (the Police Service of Northern Ireland [PSNI] in its previous incarnation) wholesale. Indeed, after 30 years as an RUC detective in Belfast he says that '90% of Special Branch [including most of the ...

... money was laundered through the party's accounts. This was the quid pro quo for the CPGB's refusal to condemn the Soviet invasion of Hungary. (1 ) Of course the average CP member knew nothing of the Soviet money, and to most of them 'Moscow Gold' was a joke, at best; at worst just another piece of crude propaganda from the Right. (2 ) No wonder the remaining CP members were so shocked in 1991 when they discovered that the right's view of the CPGB as a Moscow-directed conspiracy turned out to be partly true. Former member and CPGB employee, journalist Sarah Benton, reacted with talk of 'the other communist parties', meaning, ...

... . But the Inf Pol paper is an account of the UCA and the uses made of it by Inf Pol. That is, while the public manifestations of the UCA - leaflets, statements, and threats - were genuine, Inf Pol was stirring the pot with unattributable briefings to the media trying to exploit themes suggested by the UCA's own propaganda. It is also possible to argue that this Inf Pol briefing on the UCA is itself also a phoney. But then it is possible, in principle, to argue that almost anything is a phoney. Such scepticism is easy but ultimately futile. My inclination is to accept the Inf Pol briefing as true (a ) because its ...
