"I meet Mark Regev, chief spokesman for Benjamin Netanyahu, at a little restaurant in Tel Aviv.

We discuss Leon Brittan and the alleged pedophile rings that are accused of being used by Israel and its friends to control much of the world.

LEON BRITTAN - THE BIGGER PICTURE

Michael Jackson, David Blaine, Paul Boateng and Yuri Geller.

The leaders of the UK, USA and Europe appear to be controlled, in part,through child abuse rings.

In 1983, Sir Leon Brittan (right) a senior minister in Margaret Thatcher's Cabinet was handed Geoffrey Dickens's dossier on top people's child abuse rings. 

Asked by The Independent what the dossier alleged and what action, he took, Sir Leon replied by email: "I have no recollection of these matters. Sorry!"

Leon Brittan, who was the hom sec responsible for MI5 between 1983 and 1985.

The 1980s dossier about a child sex abuse ring in the UK government was lost or destroyed by officials.

The document was handed to then Home Secretary (responsible for the police and MI5) Leon Brittan by Conservative Member of Parliament Geoffrey Dickens.

Officials claim that some of the concerns about the abuse had been passed to the director of public prosecutions, who had passed them on to the police to investigate.

Leon Brittan: I was handed 'paedophile' dossier

Simon Danczuk, who is calling for a public inquiry into the allegations

Member of Parliament Simon Danczuk told BBC News: "Why would you destroy such an important document? 

"Were any prosecutions forthcoming? 

"It's raising more questions than it is answers."

Conservative MP Geoffrey Dickens died 'in mysterious circumstances' in 1995

Geoffrey Dickens handed two dossiers to Leon Brittan's Home Office in 1983-84. 

One of the dossiers, he said, concerned a top civil servant and another one related to an employee of Buckingham Palace. 

They also contained allegations concerning the Paedophile Information Exchange, which was reportedly funded by the UK security services as a way of blackmailing top people.

In an interview with the Daily Express in August 1983 Dickens said he would expose eight top people if the home secretary failed to act. 

He told the Express: "I've got eight names of big people, really important names, public figures. And I am going to expose them in Parliament."

There have been allegations that the security services try to smear people.

House of Commons Hansard Debates for 8 May 1996

The Minister of State, Home Office (Mr. David Maclean): 

"As for the assertions ... that members of the intelligence agencies attempted to smear the then Home Secretary, Sir Leon Brittan, the House will be well aware that it is not the Government's usual practice to comment on speculation..."

Reportedly, someone looking like Leon Brittan was seen in a place of entertainment in Haiti....

In 1966, several media outlets, including The New Republic and The New York Times, reported that GM had tried to discredit Nader, hiring private detectives to tap his phones and investigate his past and hiring prostitutes to trap him in compromising situations.[1][2]

"One journalist I worked with for a time in London in the 1980′s told me that one of Thatcher’s cabinet ministers was well-known to be an active paedophile, but that this information could not be made public. As he is back in government I will not name him..."

'Possible elite British paedophile ring': Comments:

Jo said...

"Leon Brittan is alleged to have abused boys. 

"The police once raided his home after a young boy staggered in to the street half naked, and when police asked what happened he told them about Brittan and his friends and took them to the house. 

"When they called in to report what happened, they were ordered to take everyone in, and when they got there there were 2 officers from the security service waiting. 

"The boys were paid off, and a short time later, Leon Britton was summoned to meet his fellow MP, William Hague on the beach in Brighton at 5.45 in the morning, where he was told that he was to be made EU Commissioner for the UK, and he would not be allowed to be in politics again in the UK.


In Alabama, 45% of Republican voters think Obama is a Muslim, while 41% are not sure. In Mississippi, 52% of Republicans think Obama is Muslim, while 36% are unsure.

"That was how he became commissioner and he stayed there for many years, until the corruption inquiry went ahead, which saw a large number of people from different countries being made to resign.

"It's been alleged too that Brittan's paedophile behaviour also came to the attention of the police when they were investigating the murder of Jason Swift. Whichever way the investigation went his name kept cropping up.

"Jason Swift once lived in a care home in Islington."

Jason Swift. In 1985, 14-year-old Jason Swift was killed by a child-abuse gang. Jason is believed to have lived in Islington council's Conewood Street children's home. A close male relative of Baby P reportedly recruited boys from children's homes in Islington for the child-abuse ring. Islington children were reportedly sent to Jersey, the island linked to child abuse.

Ethiopian Famine Relief

His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I, 

Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah, 

King of Kings of Ethiopia, 

Elect of God".

Tafari Makonnen Woldemikael

(23 July 1892 – 27 August 1975)

The Emperor sent aid to the British government in 1947 when Britain was affected by heavy flooding. 

His letter to Lord Meork, National Distress Fund, London said, "even though We are busy of helping our people who didn't recover from the crises of the war, We heard that your fertile and beautiful country is devastated by the unusually heavy rain, and your request for aid. "Therefore, We are sending small amount of money, about one thousand pounds through our embassy to show our sympathy and cooperation."

Haile Selassie was known as a child as Lij Tafari Makonnen

Lij translates to "child", and serves to indicate that a youth is of noble blood. His given name, Tafari, means "one who is respected or feared". Like most Ethiopians, his personal name Tafari is followed by that of his father Makonnen and rarely that of his grandfather Woldemikael. His Ge'ez name, Haile Selassie was given to him at his infant baptism and adopted again as part of his regnal name in 1930.

As Governor of Harer, he became known as Ras Teferi Makonnen. Ras translates to "head" and is a rank of nobility equivalent to Duke; though it is often rendered in translation as "prince". In 1916, Empress Zewditu I appointed him to the position of Balemulu Silt'an Enderase (Regent Plenipotentiary). In 1928, she granted him the throne of Shoa, elevating his title to Negus or "King".

On 2 November 1930, after the death of Empress Zewditu, Ras Tafari was crowned King of Kings, often rendered imprecisely in English as "Emperor".

Upon his ascension, he took as his regnal name Haile Selassie I. Haile means in Ge'ez "Power of" and Selassie means trinity—therefore Haile Selassie roughly translates to "Power of the Trinity".

Haile Selassie's full title in office was "His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I, Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah, King of Kings of Ethiopia, Elect of God".

This title reflects Ethiopian dynastic traditions, which hold that all monarchs must trace their lineage back to Menelik I, who in the Ethiopian tradition was the offspring of King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba.

To Ethiopians, Haile Selassie has been known by many names, including Janhoy, Talaqu Meri, and Abba Tekel.

The Rastafari movement employs many of these appellations, also referring to him as Jah, Jah Rastafari, and HIM (the abbreviation of "His Imperial Majesty").

• Thousands of people cut off in their villages by snowdrifts up to seven metres deep.
• Frozen rivers, lakes and even blocks of ice at sea.
• Snow covering most of the land every day for more than two months. 

Weather Chart

A low near the channel islands and high over southern Scandinavia, a typical pressure situation during the 1947 winter. Occlusion giving snow over southern counties of England.

Serious snowfall in the winter of 1947

Thousands of people were cut off for days by snowdrifts up to seven metres deep during the winter of 1947, which saw exceptional snowfall. Supplies had to be flown in by helicopter to many villages, and the armed forces were called in to help clear roads and railways.

Between January and March that year, snow fell every day somewhere in the country for 55 days straight. Much of this settled because temperatures stayed very low, just above freezing most days.

No-one expected this winter to be severe, as January started with very mild temperatures at up to 14 °C recorded. This was soon to change, however. An area of high pressure moved over southern Scandinavia, setting up a weather pattern which dominated the UK for the rest of the month. The first snow came on 23 January, falling heavily over southern England. Blizzard conditions occurred across the south-west of England, leaving many villages in Devon isolated.

The cold, snowy weather continued through February and into March. Any breaks in the cold weather were short-lived.

• In February, the temperature at Kew Observatory did not go over 4.4 °C and the night minimum temperature only went above 0 °C twice.
• The mean maximum temperature for the month was 0.5 °C (6.9 °C below average) and the mean minimum was -2.7 °C (4.6 °C below average).
• Mean minimum temperatures were more than 4 °C below average everywhere in southern England, and almost 6 °C below average in some places.

February 1947 was the coldest February on record in many places. One notable feature of this month was the lack of precipitation in parts of western Scotland. Because of the persistent anti-cyclonic conditions, some places that were normally very wet had no rain at all. A completely dry month in western Scotland is unusual. It was unprecedented in February.

Another unusual feature of February 1947 was the lack of sunshine in the Midlands and south of England - a complete contrast to the north-west of Scotland, where the weather was unusually sunny.

• At Kew, Nottingham and Edgbaston, there was no sun on 22 of the month's 28 days.
• Most of the Midlands and southern England had sunshine totals about 40% of the average.

When skies did clear, night-time temperatures plunged. Woburn in Bedfordshire registered a low of of -21 °C early on 25 February.

If February hadn't been bad enough, March was even worse. In the first half of the month, there were strong gales and heavy snowstorms, making for blizzard conditions. On 4 and 5 March, heavy snow fell over most of England and Wales, with severe snow drifts forming. On 6 March, drifts were five metres deep in the Pennines and three metres deep in the Chilterns.

On 10 and 11 March Scotland had its heaviest snowfall of the winter, with snow drifts up to seven metres deep reported by 12 March. The snowstorm heading over Scotland was to be the last over the UK for this cold spell, however. As it moved away, temperatures were already rising in the very south west of the UK. Temperatures rapidly got up to about 10 °C, and the leftover snow began to thaw rapidly. This created a serious problem. The ground was still frozen solid due to the weeks of cold weather, leaving the melting snow with nowhere to go.

As the warmer weather moved across the UK, the melt-water poured into rivers and caused many to burst their banks. Flooding problems began to spread across England from the south west, as a new depression came in from the Atlantic, bringing rain and severe gales. During the afternoon of 16 March, winds over southern England averaged about 50 knots, with gusts of 80-90 knots. This caused damage to buildings and caused even more problems as the strong winds created waves which pounded and even broke some flood defences.

River levels continued to rise. The banks of the Trent burst at Nottingham on 18 March and hundreds of homes were flooded, many to first floor level. While floods in the south-west England began to subside, other rivers continued to rise in eastern England. The Wharfe, Derwent, Aire and Ouse all burst their banks and flooded a huge area of southern Yorkshire. The town of Selby was almost completely under water. Only the ancient abbey and a few streets around the market place escaped inundation. Seventy per cent of all houses in the town were flooded. The flooding issues continued into the spring, bringing a nasty end to the cold and snowy winter.

Thomas Jefferson vs. Ron Paul's First Episcopal Marital Rape Ministry

Religious Freedom ≠ Religious Dictatorship

In actual fact, ≠  DOES NOT mean "Does Not Equal", or "Is Not The Same As" - it specifically denotes "Inequality";

Meaning that Uncle Ron is actually saying " "Wants" are either inferior or superior to "Rights" ".

By the notation "Wants ≠ Rights", what he is actually expressing is that "Wants" he agrees with, and thinks are virtuous and admirable (such as black people not breeding, being forced to quit work due to medical bills and time off due to unwanted pregnancies, and yet him still not having to pay for it) are sometimes (often) SUPERIOR in law and in merit to the "Rights" of others...

This from the Candidate from the Confederacy who still thinks that Appomattox represented the ultimate abbrogation of Property Rights...

Access to Affordable Heathcare is a Basic Human and Eccomic Right.

But I Digress.

(I want to punch the leathery, cracker-assed cracker in the neck...)

Uncle Ron is a big fan of Narcotics and of total decriminalisation - however, I have never seen him attempt to make a First Ammendment religious freedom argument in support of marijhuana in supoort of the Rastafari bredderens of East Texas:

It's certainly a view - another is "Blacks + Drugs = Genocide" - H. Rap Brown

It would also be interesting to see Uncle Ron come out in support (as surely he must) to defend the institution of Marital Rape as a Religious Freedom:

It's official - Public Domain is God.

1 Corinthians 7:3-5King James Version (KJV)

3 Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband.

4 The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.

5 Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.

Thomas Jefferson, A Bill for Proportioning Crimes and Punishments

1778Papers 2:492--504

"Whereas it frequently happens that wicked and dissolute men resigning themselves to the dominion of inordinate passions, commit violations on the lives, liberties and property of others, and, the secure enjoyment of these having principally induced men to enter into society, government would be defective in it's principal purpose were it not to restrain such criminal acts, by inflicting due punishments on those who perpetrate them; but it appears at the same time equally deducible from the purposes of society that a member thereof, committing an inferior injury, does not wholy forfiet the protection of his fellow citizens, but, after suffering a punishment in proportion to his offence is entitled to their protection from all greater pain, so that it becomes a duty in the legislature to arrange in a proper scale the crimes which it may be necessary for them to repress, and to adjust thereto a corresponding gradation of punishments.

And whereas the reformation of offenders, tho' an object worthy the attention of the laws, is not effected at all by capital punishments, which exterminate instead of reforming, and should be the last melancholy resource against those whose existence is become inconsistent with the safety of their fellow citizens, which also weaken the state by cutting off so many who, if reformed, might be restored sound members to society, who, even under a course of correction, might be rendered useful in various labors for the public, and would be living and long continued spectacles to deter others from committing the like offences.

And forasmuch the experience of all ages and countries hath shewn that cruel and sanguinary laws defeat their own purpose by engaging the benevolence of mankind to withold prosecutions, to smother testimony, or to listen to it with bias, when, if the punishment were only proportioned to the injury, men would feel it their inclination as well as their duty to see the laws observed.

For rendering crimes and punishments therefore more proportionate to each other: Be it enacted by the General assembly that no crime shall be henceforth punished by deprivation of life or limb except those hereinafter ordained to be so punished.

Whosoever shall be guilty of Rape, Polygamy, or Sodomy with man or woman shall be punished, if a man, by castration, if a woman, by cutting thro' the cartilage of her nose a hole of one half inch diameter at the least.

But no one shall be punished for Polygamy who shall have married after probable information of the death of his or her husband or wife, or after his or her husband or wife hath absented him or herself, so that no notice of his or her being alive hath reached such person for 7. years together, or hath suffered the punishments before prescribed for rape, polygamy or sodomy."

How the INLA killed Airey Neave

By Paddy McGuffin (Derry News)

"Paddy McGuffin"

paddy, (n)

1. Shortened name for Patrick. 

2. Inoffensive name for an Irishman. 

3. Offensive name for an Irishman. 

4. A tantrum or 'wobbler'.

McGuffin

Line breaks: McGuf¦fin

Pronunciation: /məˈgʌfɪn    /

(also MacGuffin)

NOUN

An object or device in a film or a book which serves merely as a trigger for the plot:

"the McGuffin in this intriguing comedy is an unpublished novel by a young writer killed in the war"

Origin

1930s: a Scottish surname, coined in this sense by the English film director Alfred Hitchcock, allegedly from a humorous story involving such a pivotal factor.

Interviewed in 1966 by François Truffaut, Alfred Hitchcock illustrated the term "MacGuffin" with this story:

"It might be a Scottish name, taken from a story about two men on a train. One man says, "What's that package up there in the baggage rack?" And the other answers, "Oh, that's a MacGuffin". The first one asks, "What's a MacGuffin?" "Well," the other man says, "it's an apparatus for trapping lions in the Scottish Highlands." The first man says, "But there are no lions in the Scottish Highlands," and the other one answers, "Well then, that's no MacGuffin!" So you see that a MacGuffin is actually nothing at all."

How the INLA killed Airey Neave

By Paddy McGuffin (Derry News)

On March 30, 1979 the INLA, in a joint operation comprising both Derry and Belfast paramilitaries, carried out one of the most audacious and shocking actions of the troubles by assassinating leading Tory Airey Neave in a car bomb attack in Westminster.

The mercury tilt switch bomb, a relatively new addition to the organisations arsenal was attached to the underside of the MP's car.

As the politician drove up the ramp from the underground car park reserved for the House of Commons staff and MPs the device detonated.

Mr Neave was horrifically injured in the blast and died at the scene. Thesignificance of the action was manifold; Neave was a former soldier and allied prisoner of war, expected to take over the mantle of Secretary of State for Northern Ireland following the pending election.

And the attack also illustrated the willingness and capability of the INLA to strike at the heart of government.

Speculation has been rife as to the method employed by the INLA to carry out such an attack.

It has been suggested that inside help was employed from an individual working in Westminster and, (on the word of Derry supergrass Raymond Gilmour) that a team headed by Derry Hungerstriker Patsy O'Hara had been behind the attack.

Later this month, however, the INLA intend to give their account of the bombing in a new three-part RTE documentary, 'Bombers'.

And speaking to the Derry News yesterday, the movement branded the O'Hara claims as "pure fantasy". 

No one has ever been caught for the killing.

Why Neave?
A list of questions was submitted to the INLA by Stirling the production company behind the documentary, and London based IRSP Ard Comhairle member Terry Harkin, a former member of the INLA in Derry, was extensively briefed by the organisation to answer these questions.

Last night he told the Derry News why the organisation targeted Neave, and discussed the two schools of thought as to how the assassination took place.

Harkin stated: "You could not get anymore establishment than Neave. He was a total reactionary and publicly advocated greater use of the SAS and Shoot-to-kill policy in Northern Ireland. He seemed to perceive republicans as a sort of 'white Mau Mau terrorist organisation'.
"Neave was preparing to up the ante in a serious way and unleash a wave of terror against the Irish people. He continues to be the most important political figure to lose his life for the last 40 years.

"Within months he would have been the Secretary of State for NI. In a historical context, the onslaught against the Irish when it came after Neave's death was not as focused as it might have been had he been in charge. Neave would not have lost the propaganda war that Thatcher did."

Why now?
So why have the INLA chosen to come forward with details of the attack now, almost 25 years after the fact?

Harkin explained: "There is a perception that we could be entering the end phase of the peace process. The INLA has stated that it has no plans at this stage to resume the armed struggle.

"They were approached by Stirling productions in regard to making the documentary and were assured that this would not be a salacious account and would be dealt with from a purely historical perspective.

"It was decided, before everyone else starts telling their stories, to set the record straight. I was delegated to answer questions and briefed by the INLA."
As has been well documented the device used in the Neave attack was based on a mercury tilt switch and timing device, attached to the wheel arch of his car.

When at rest, the device was primed and highly sensitive, but it was only triggered when the vehicle reached the incline of the car park ramp.

The exact sequence of events has been the source of rumour and conjecture. 

Two distinct schools of thought exist, said Harkin.

"One school of thought is that the device was connected while the vehicle was parked outside Neave's home, while the other is that it was actually planted while the car was in the House of Commons car park," he said.

"The mercury tilt switch was developed by the INLA to attack imperialist targets, but it was not developed specifically for the Neave attack. As the technology developed other groups began to use it."

UDR killing:
Tilt switches were usually cannibalised from central heating systems where they were commonplace and therefore readily obtainable. The engineering section of the INLA in Derry and Belfast had been working on developing the devices, which had been used previously in a similar attack on a UDR officer.

Harkin says that his information is that the device in this case was attached along with a detonator and TPU (Time power unit) to a Tupperware box containing plastic explosive. This box was in turn secured to the wheel arch of the car with magnets.

Both the vehicle and the car park itself were under surveillance for some time prior to the attack. Neave himself would have been targeted as soon as he became shadow NI Secretary.

It is understood that the action was carried out by a standard active service unit, possibly with a second unit in a support capacity.

Among those interviewed in the 'Bombers' documentary are the bombmakers themselves, victims of bombings, the security forces and the emergency services.

In depth analysis of several bombings is conducted, including Bloody Friday (1972), the La Mon Hotel bombing (1978) and the Airey Neave bombing.

The first instalment of 'Bombers' is to be screened on Tuesday October 14 at 10.10pm on RTE One.

In an interview with The Guardian on 9 January 1984, former UK government minister Enoch Powell claimed that the Americans murdered Lord Mountbatten and Margaret Thatcher's friend Airey Neave.

"The Mountbatten murder was a high-level 'job' not unconnected with the nuclear strategy of the United States" (Guardian 9th January 1984). Mountbatten was said to be in favour of nuclear disarmament.

Powell claimed the evidence came from a member of the Royal Ulster Constabulary with whom he had a conversation. (Simon Heffer, Like the Roman: The Life of Enoch Powell, 1999, p. 881.)

Lord Mountbatten was rumoured to have been a visitor to Northern Ireland's Kincora children's home which "was run as a virtual gay brothel by loyalist leaders and MI5." 

In the USA, in November 1982, five men were acquitted of smuggling arms to the IRA after they revealed that the CIA had approved the shipment.

On 12 October 1984, a bomb went off at the Grand Hotel in Brighton, England.

The bomb, planted by Patrick Magee, a member of the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA), was intended to kill Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and her cabinet, who were staying at the hotel for the Conservative Party conference.

The Irish National Liberation Army was a rival to the Official IRA, and may have been set up in order to weaken the Nationalist cause.

There is a theory that many of the Irish terror groups were Mafias run by elements of the CIA and MI6. It was all about making money from drugs and guns.

Kevin Fulton, a former British soldier claimed that he had flown to New York, met FBI and MI5 agents and was given money to buy an infra-red device to be used to set off IRA bombs. 

The INLA murdered 113 people in the 80s and 90s.

Mountbatten was killed by a bomb in 1979.

12 October 1984 bomb - Grand Hotel Brighton

In the USA, in November 1982, five men were acquitted of smuggling arms to the IRA after they revealed that the CIA had approved the shipment.[98]

On 12 October 1984, a bomb went off at the Grand Hotel in Brighton, England.

The bomb, planted by Patrick Magee, a member of the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA), was intended to kill Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and her cabinet, who were staying at the hotel for the Conservative Party conference.

The INLA murdered 113 people in the 80s and 90s.

Neave was murdered in 1979.

When Margaret Thatcher's close friend Airey Neave was assassinated in 1979, in a car-bomb attack at a House of Commons carpark, the Irish National Liberation Army (INLA) was among the groups that claimed responsibility for the assassination.

Journalist Paul Routledge, in his book Public Servant Secret Agent, floated the idea that Neave was killed by people within MI6 and the CIA.

In 2002, Journalist Paul Donovan wrote, in the Irish Democrat, about "A tangled web of intrigue"

According to Donovan:

1. Neave sought to clean up the corruption within the security services.

2. Neave was killed by a bomb. Gerald James, former chief of the armaments firm Astra Holdings, wrote that the mercury switch on the bomb was only available to the CIA at the time.

3. Enoch Powell claimed that the CIA wanted a united Ireland within NATO.

Former UK cabinet minister Tony Benn, who supports nuclear disarmament and has publicly supported Sinn Féin and the unification of Ireland

From Wikipedia we learn:

UK politician Tony Benn records in his diary (17 February 1981) that a journalist from the New Statesman, Duncan Campbell, told him that he had received information from an intelligence agent two years previously that Neave had planned to have Benn assassinated if there was a possibility that Benn might be elected Labour Party Leader.

The New Statesman printed the story on 20 February 1981, naming the agent as Lee Tracey.

Tracey claimed to have met Neave and was asked to join a team of intelligence and security specialists which would "make sure Benn was stopped". Tracey planned a second meeting with Neave but Neave was killed before they could meet again.[8]

Kevin Cahill, an Irish investigative journalist, claims Neave was on the verge of a massive overhaul of the security services, possibly involving a merger of MI5 and MI6 and arising from his belief in corruption in the security services.

Neave

Cahill suggests a link between Neave's murder and Sir Richard Sykes' murder and the attempted murder of Christopher Tugendhat in December 1980.

Cahill claims that Neave would have been head of the combined security services with Sykes and Tugendhat as his deputies, with Sykes responsible for foreign operations and Tugendhat responsible for home operations.

Cahill concluded that Neave was murdered by MI6 agents working with the CIA because Neave sought to prosecute senior figures in the intelligence establishment for corruption.

On 18 October 1986 Enoch Powell returned to the subject of Neave's death in a speech to Conservative students in Birmingham.

He told them that INLA had not killed Neave, but that he had been assassinated by "MI6 and their friends".

Powell claimed Neave's Northern Ireland policy had been one of integration with the rest of the UK.

His murder, alleged Powell, was intended to make the British Government adopt a policy more acceptable to America in her aim of a united Ireland within NATO.

Philip Zelikow - Sorry, no, that's meant to be Robert Macnamarra

"Strauss believed it was for politicians to assert powerful and inspiring myths that everyone could believe in. 

They might not be true - but they were necessary illusions. 

One of these was religion; the other was the myth of the nation."

May 2000: Future Authors of 9/11 Report Produce John F. Kennedy Book Riddled with Errors  

An eminent historian finds serious flaws in a historical treatise about former President John F. Kennedy. The book, The Kennedy Tapes: Inside the White House During the Cuban Missile Crisis, was written in 1997 by conservative historians Ernest May and Philip D. Zelikow, and purports to be an unprecedentedly accurate representation of the events of 1962’s Cuban Missile Crisis based on transcriptions of recorded meetings, conferences, telephone conversations, and interviews with various participants. 

[ATLANTIC MONTHLY, 5/2000] 

Zelikow is a former member of George H. W. Bush’s National Security Council and a close adviser to future National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice. 

[US DEPARTMENT OF STATE, 8/5/2005] 

May is a Harvard professor. Both will participate heavily in the creation of the 2004 report by the 9/11 Commission. 

[SHENON, 2008, PP. 387-393] 

Almost three years after the Kennedy book’s publication, Sheldon M. Stern, the historian for the John F. Kennedy Library from 1977 through 1999, pores over it and the May/Zelikow transcripts. 

In the original edition, May and Zelikow admitted that their final product was not perfect: “The reader has here the best text we can produce, but it is certainly not perfect. We hope that some, perhaps many, will go to the original tapes. If they find an error or make out something we could not, we will enter the corrections in subsequent editions or printings of this volume.” 

But when Stern checks the book against the tapes, he finds hundreds of errors in the book, some quite significant. Stern concludes that the errors “significantly undermine [the book’s] reliability for historians, teachers, and general readers.” May and Zelikow have corrected a few of the errors in subsequent editions, but have not publicly acknowledged any errors. 

Stern concludes, “Readers deserve to know that even now The Kennedy Tapes cannot be relied on as an accurate historical document.” 

[ATLANTIC MONTHLY, 5/2000] 

One error has then-Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy talking about the planned “invasion” of Russian ships heading to Cuba, when the tapes actually show Kennedy discussing a far less confrontational “examination” of those vessels. 

May and Zelikow imply that the Kennedy administration was discussing just the kind of confrontation that it was actually trying to avoid. Another error has CIA Director John McCone referring to the need to call on former President Dwight D. Eisenhower as a “facilitator,” where McCone actually said “soldier.” 

May and Zelikow will be rather dismissive of Stern’s findings, saying that “none of these amendments are very important.” 

Stern will express shock over their response, and respond, “When the words are wrong, as they are repeatedly, the historical record is wrong.”
