[…] the authenticity of the disinformation was bolstered by charging Dreyfus with the leak! A modern myth? In a piece about the arrest of Soviet agent in the CIA, Rick Ames, the Sunday Telegraph, 27 February, 1994, said that Ames ‘recruited Soviet agents, ruthlessly betraying at least 10, knowing they would be shot or, like […]
[…] Milan. Indeed, it was in Milan that they centred their non-US operations. Politically unstable and financially corrupt, Italy was a peculiar choice. It was, however, central to CIA operations in Europe. London was still a rival financial centre and Paris only a part-time ally of the US after DeGaulle. The later history of Andersen […]
[…] he could do because 85% of the land in Nevada was owned or controlled by the federal authorities. The rest was owned mostly by the Mob. The CIA found Vegas as useful for laundering money as the Mob. When Hank Greenspan, the local semi-liberal and ‘crusading’ newspaper editor died – he was as close […]
[…] a minor criminal and anti-Castro activist. He presents a selection of the known and reliable evidence to suggest that the anti-Castro Cubans – with organised crime and/or CIA links – planned to kill JFK, and leave a dead Oswald framed as a pro-Castro, communist assassin, triggering another US invasion of Cuba and scuppering JFK’s […]

They are interesting, perhaps important pieces. But interesting would […]
[…] for four to five weeks prior to the day of the anti-Gaddafi demonstration by the National Front for the Salvation of Libya, an organisation financed by the CIA. Unbelievably, this operation was wound up the day before the demonstration! Dr Thomas is convinced that the single bullet which killed the police officer was fired […]
[…] prime minister. Quasim himself was ousted in 1963. In 1968 another coup brought Saddam Hussein’s faction of the Ba’athist party into power. The leaders took advantage of CIA help, but Al-Ani argues that they remained independent of US influence. The new administration created, on the basis of nationalised oil revenues, a semi-industrialised authoritarian state […]
[PDF file]: […] The deed that proved fatal to his career, the so-called ‘smoking gun’, was a taped Oval Office conversation in which Nixon ordered his aides to get the CIA to help quash the Watergate investigation by telling the FBI that it was intruding on a sensitive intelligence operation. To enlist the CIA’s cooperation, Nixon proposed […]
[PDF file]: […] Confessions in the latter case implicated Dr. Orlando Bosch Avila, a Cuban emigré then living in Venezuela and a veteran of at least three anti-Castro plots with CIA and/or Mafia backing.
