... by means of which to mount a covert "Contra" war against the socialist government of Cuba, utilizing expatriate indigenous right-wing Cubans who had been loyal to dictator Batista. The objective of this non-Congressionally authorized operation was to undermine, weaken, and eventually, overthrow the revolutionary socialist government of Cuba. It appears that this secret operation was then code-named "Operation 40." 70.2 . That, in late 1959, then Vice President Richard M. Nixon, with the direct participation and cooperation of United States Central Intelligence Agency Director Allen Dulles, undertook the supervision of the recruiting of expatriate, right-wing Cubans who had fled from Cuba ...

... 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 ...

... | 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 ...

... 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 ...

... - published and unpublished documents, court transcripts, interviews with magistrates and protagonists such as Gelli himself. The thesis advanced by Willan is essentially that the rise of rightist 'terrorism' (a word whose analytical validity I don't accept, but he does, like most others) up to 1974 was sponsored by elements within the ruling bloc and the secret state in particular. He illustrates this by looking at incidents including the May 1972 killing of 3 carabineri near Peateano (using weapons from a Gladio arms dump), and the bombing of the Italicus express train in August 1974 (a P2 operation). Such close attention to particular episodes is one of the great strengths of this book ...

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 ...
