[…] is a professionally produced, 32-page quarterly magazine whose primary focus is the Kennedy assassination but whose ambit is actually the entire period from JFK’s assassination through to Watergate – and beyond. Vol. 2 no. 3, for example is a special edition on Watergate. But it includes a piece on Alger Hiss – who launched […]
[…] can decide? Lane gets the same treatment for – you can guess – going into court to defend US magazine The Spotlight, when it was sued by Watergate burglar Howard Hunt. (Lane’s book about this event is reviewed in Lobster 23, p. 35 (2) So, if two early JFK theorists are now hob-nobbing with […]
[…] pages crammed with the titles of books and pamphlets that would make any ‘progressive’ faint: ‘Our Nordic Race’, ‘Ethnic Group Differences’, ‘Jews Want to Dominate Negroes’, ‘ Watergate: Jewish Conspiracy to Seize U.S. Government’, ‘Censorship in the U.S. — I Accuse the Jews’, and ‘Racial Chaos and Criminal Anarchy — the Prelude to Black […]
[…] against the Labour Government — the Agee-Hosenball expulsions and the Aubery, Berry and Campbell (ABC) trial for example.

And so on. I haven’t read the whole book but […]
[…] it is better not to know. There are too many things that embarrass Americans in that report. You see, this country went through a bad shock with Watergate. But even then, all they were asked to believe was that their president had been a bad person. In this new situation they are asked much […]
[…] evil geniuses are as real as 9-11 and the Holocaust. So, too, are the bumbling cabals of politicians and intelligence operatives bent upon adventures such as Iran-Contra, Watergate and the Bay of Pigs. Would Doctor Moore hold that the Nuremberg Trials were an exercise in conspiracism? Of course not. Would she deny that Hamas, […]
[…] to influence political decisions and policies in the countries within which it operates. Thus, for example, Moon’s attempts to support Richard Nixon at the height of the Watergate crisis, raise money for a variety of anti-communist causes, and influence Congressional votes through lobbying are reasonably well known; (7) and due to the extraordinary efforts […]
[…] campaign funds or was politically and financially indebted to the people who ran Vegas. Paul Laxalt, one of only two republican Senate gains in the year after Watergate, had been a long-time defender of casino interests in the state. He was the first to form a Citizens for Reagan Committee, later becoming one of […]
