April 14 1986 — Reagan Strikes on Tripoli and Benghazi

April 5 2025 — In a piece published by the Washington Post on April 7 2017, Amber Phillips wrote that President Ronald Reagan’s 1986 bombing raid on Tripoli and Benghazi was retaliation for the 1988 attack on Pan Am 103 over Lockerbie. At the time, I would have bet the farm that this would be the most idiotic story ever reported by the Washington Post. On February 11 2020, Greg Miller taught me a good lesson: ‘The worst is — always — yet to come.”  Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY

Brussels, Den of Spies — No Rum? No Quorum! [When prohibition hits Belgian Parliament, participation goes missing!]

Posted on June 20, 2025 by L

“Basic values paradoxically lead to their own decline through the accumulation of wealth and possessions.”

Robert K. Merton
The Unanticipated Consequences of Purposive Social Action (1936)

June 20, 2025 — The law of unintended consequences describes how deliberate actions — especially by governments — often lead to outcomes that sharply diverge from their original intentions. These consequences may be beneficial, harmful, or entirely unrelated. While economists and sociologists have long understood this, politicians often fail to anticipate it.

False Flags and Fat Budgets: America’s Intelligence Illusion [The Intelligence Trap: Trump, DNI Tulsi, and the $100 Billion Question]

Posted on June 18, 2025 by L

“Prior to launching strikes on Iran, Israel shared intelligence with the United States… However, U.S. intelligence officials were unconvinced, seeing it instead as a continuation of research halted since 2003.”

Wall Street Journal
June 18, 2025

On the same page? “President Trump and I actually agree on the need to stop these wasteful regime change wars… We just disagree on how to lead.” — Tulsi Gabbard

June 18, 2025 — Former President Donald Trump made no secret of his deep distrust for the CIA and the broader U.S. intelligence establishment. Throughout his first term, he clashed with officials over everything from Russian election interference to the supposed threat of Iran. So, when Trump nominated former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence, the move shocked many—but also made a certain kind of sense. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY

Bad Science & Bad Scientists : IRA suspect Issues Apology for the Birmingham Pub Bombings [UPDATE : What AI171 Families Need to Know about Lockerbie]

Posted on June 17, 2025 by L

“Exactly the same forensic scientists who produced the wrongful conviction of Guiseppe Conlon, the Maguire family and of Danny McNamee, and had been stood down for the role they played. Yet here they were. Without them, there wouldn’t have been a prosecution, far less a conviction in Lockerbie. (…) What shocked me most was that I thought that all that had been gone through on Guildford and Birmingham, the one thing that had been achieved was that nobody would be convicted again on bad science. But yet in the Lockerbie case, it isn’t just the same bad science, it is the same bad scientists.”

Gareth Peirce — Solicitor for the Guildford Four and the Birmingham Six

In the Name of the Father is a 1993 Irish-British-American biographical courtroom drama film co-written and directed by Jim Sheridan. It is based on the true life story of the Guildford Four, four people falsely convicted of the 1974 IRA’s Guildford pub bombings, which killed four off-duty British soldiers and a civilian.

July 10 2017 — A self-confessed IRA bomb maker who has said he was part of the group responsible for the 1974 Birmingham pub bombings has issued an apology. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY

CIA Memorial Wall — STAR 4 : William Pierce Boteler (Cyprus – June 16, 1956)

Posted on June 16, 2025 by L

“Only a month after arriving, Bill was killed by bombs that two young boys tossed into a café. He was not the intended target. A promising young officer, a promising young life, taken in error. Taken because Bill Boteler was ready to go to a place of hazard for his country. He is one of the original 31 stars.”

Lockerbie — New documents blame Libya for Pan Am 103 and UTA 772 [UPDATE : Sarkozy Stripped of National Honour]

Posted on June 15, 2025 by L

“The FBI and the US Department of Justice have been aware of this and I know they’re working closely with their colleagues at the Crown Office and Police Scotland to see if this is something that can be used in court. I’m very hopeful that it can be used and will lead to at least one more conviction. We’ll have to see what goes beyond that, depending on what they can find.”

Former FBI Richard Marquise
(March 2025)

March 19 2025 — If authenticated, the newly revealed documents provide incontrovertible evidence that Colonel Gaddafi’s Jamahiriya Security Organisation (JSO) was indeed behind the destruction of both Pan Am 103 and UTA 772. Follow us on Twitter: @Intel_Today

Air India Flight AI171 — The Long Cover-Up: From Megrahi to Meghani

Posted on June 13, 2025 by L

“Boeing planes don’t just fall out of the sky.”

The Bombing of Pan Am 103

Official Trailer

Friday June 13, 2025 — Every time a Boeing airliner crashes, the aftermath is never just about aviation safety — it becomes a battleground of national interests, political agendas, and intelligence maneuvering. Once again, the U.S. President will be pressured to shield Boeing by pointing fingers at terrorism, attempting to steer the narrative before the facts have fully emerged.

But the evidence already paints a starkly different picture: catastrophic mechanical and electrical failures, not external sabotage, brought down Flight AI171. This isn’t an isolated incident. As IntelToday has long warned, the cycle of tragedy will continue as long as the shadow over Pan Am 103 remains unlifted — a shadow that conceals uncomfortable truths about Boeing’s safety record and the limits of official narratives. The time has come to confront these truths head-on. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY
