This Mexican project had lasted a few months when Reed’s friend William Cooper (no relation to the UFO crackpot of the same name) died in that famous CIA airplane accident over Nicaragua, which only Eugene Hasenfus survived. At this point Terry Reed got religion. […]
[…] and there may have been an idea that Parsons should succeed him in running the OTO. Note, too, that California regularly reports the highest single number of UFO incidents in the world, as well as having (with the US south-west) a high concentration of secret military and research bases.

[…] files were perused, and some of my papers and computer disks taken. In the second half of 1989 I was involved in the investigation of an alleged UFO event which had taken place in South Africa. (The case later proved to be a cover story for another event which involved the American and South […]
First off, a slight digression. There’s been much talk recently about just how many books have been published on the assassination. ‘Over 2000’ is the figure that has been thrown around and this may be traced to the very opening sentence of Gerald Posner’s egregious Case Closed: Lee Harvey Oswald and the Assassination of JFK … Read more

[…] (who is more impressive than I expected) — and a reprint of Daniel Brandt’s piece from Lobster 24. In the catalogue sections you can find everything from UFO fringe weirdness like Matrix 1, 2 and 3, to the script for Guy deBord’s last movie, a new supplier of orgone boxes in California using Reich’s […]

This is someone of little importance to anyone other than extreme environmentalists and/ or the ultra-right. Even the title is misleading. She never met Hitler (so … Read more

The spectre of technofascism haunts the democratic nations. All the powers of the espionage empire and the scientific establishment have entered into an unholy alliance to evoke this spectre: psychiatrist and spy, Dulles and Delgado, microwave specialists and clandestine operators.
