[…] there was no ‘Soviet threat’. The revisionist historians of the Cold War were right; and those within the American political system – the obvious examples being presidents Kennedy and Carter – who tried to slow/stop the nuclear arms race, were right. But Kennedy was killed (if not by the Pentagon, by one of the […]
[…] book reviewed below. 2 Rolling Stone, 1 May 2006, published a long, detailed account of the conventional theft story, ‘Was the 2004 Election Stolen?’ by Robert F. Kennedy Jr..(And yes, he is one of those Kennedys.) A recent detailed study of the hackability of the Diebold voting machine is Ariel J. Feldman, J. Alex […]
[…] everything from Jack Nicholson qua Reichian to the latest on the on-going alien abduction story in the USA. Most important, I think, are two pieces about the Kennedy assassination.

[…] government funds. This seemed to imply that Dr Michel-Titus had acted as a conduit for the money. Other money was received via someone called Lt. Colonel Douglas Kennedy, about whom I have no knowledge. In 1980 I was made a signatory for TA’s bank account with Clydesdale Bank, but never signed a cheque and […]
[…] the events the hypothesis seeks to explain in a wider historical context. Remarkably, for example, Andrew suggested that the international obsession with the assassination of John F. Kennedy was a good example of unhealthy interest in conspiracies. Now while the actual circumstances of the murder may be difficult to determine we can ascertain that […]
[…] 2001. In its final online release of material related to the conference, the National Security Archive has also posted audio recordings of two telephone conversations between President Kennedy and his brother, Attorney General Robert Kennedy, on March 2, 1963, in which they discuss concerns that a Senate investigating committee might reveal that the President […]
