Incidentally, I do actually respond briefly to the stated title at the end of the piece. A preface: in what follows I use the terms security agencies and secret state to stand for the intelligence and security services - it saves time and endless repetition of a mouthful. Or should I say: I use the term security agencies in place of the intelligence, security and surveillance services, MI6, MI5, GCHQ.

... of the empire, at the behest of the Royal Institute of International Affairs.14 Trade union leaders they might be, seeking justice and a better deal for the British worker, but they remained patriots and imperialists for the most part, and not socialists. The gentlemen (mostly men) of the TUC did not dream – publicly or secretly – of taking over British capitalism, or of destroying the British empire. The institutional links with the British state begun before World War 2 were solidified enormously by the War. The trade unions were in the national coalition government, and some of their leaders were Ministers of the Crown – very important people. After the war In the ...

... With this information, the Soviets were able to shoot down Francis Gary Powers' U-2 flight on 1 May 1960. The claim has even entered otherwise sober studies of the U-2 affair such as historian Michael Beschloss's well-regarded book Mayday, where he makes a passing reference to Oswald's possible role in betraying U-2 secrets.2 A deeper understanding of Oswald's role in Japan, however, has been long distorted by the 1978 publication of Edward Jay Epstein's book Legend: The Secret World of Lee Harvey Oswald 3 in which Epstein tries to prove that Oswald fell victim to an elaborate Soviet intelligence honey trap' while in Japan that led him to spy for ...

... or efficacy of political conspiracies. Even when this belief is expressed in a very cautious manner, limited to specific and restricted contexts, supported by reliable evidence, and hedged about with all sort of qualifications, it still manages to transcend the boundaries of acceptable discourse and violate unspoken academic taboos. The idea that particular groups of people meet together secretly or in private to plan various courses of action, and that some of these plans actually exert a significant influence on particular historical developments, is typically rejected out of hand and assumed to be the figment of a paranoid imagination. The mere mention of the word conspiracy' seems to set off an internal alarm bell which causes scholars to ...

'( 1 ) Peter Dale Scott's new paperback edition of Deep Politics begins to develop conspiracy theory away from its one dimensional past, towards a ...

... | Next Issue 42 Another layer of cover Nick Cook's The Hunt for Zero Point examined David Hambling Nick Cook is a defence journalist of high repute, having been an Aviation Editor for the authoritative Jane's Defence Weekly for fourteen years. When he says that UFO reports conceal a new technology with the potential to change the world, a technology kept secret by the US military-industrial complex for decades, he should be worth listening to. Zero Point (8 ) starts with a news clipping from 1956 turning up on Cook's desk. The article, The G-Engines Are Coming', describes how US aircraft companies are working on an antigravity drive which will make jet engines obsolete ...

The way this story is now told plays on the myth of an all-powerful secret Jewish conspiracy behind the scenes. Well, there was a conspiracy of sorts but it was not a Jewish one, and the ringleaders were British. It is important to emphasise the nature of this commitment to the Zionist cause on the part of the British Establishment during the First World ...
