[…] selective quotations – to show that the big bogey figure of 1939/45 was Winston Churchill….duping Roosevelt….duping Stalin…….pointlessly intransigent toward Hitler etc. Kilzer’s theory that Bormann was a Communist agent has actually been around since the early 1950s. (2) No evidence has ever been produced to substantiate this view. His book is basically a study […]
[…] 1964 Gulf of Tonkin incident (which laid the foundation for a wider war), and its commanders included John K. Singlaub, later a figure in the World Anti- Communist League and Iran-contra affair.

[…] – the Polish Pope – was told the ‘third secret’ of the Fatima revelations; and that this ‘third secret’ spoke of his assassination and suggested an anti- communist crusade.

[…] they were the Round Table. The ‘radical right’ in America attacked the Round Table’s various front organisations in the late 1940s, thinking they were attacking the ‘international communist conspiracy’.
