Lockerbie — Who Is The Mysterious GOLFER? [Part III : Unmasking The Devil]

“The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist.”

Charles Baudelaire — “Le Joueur Généreux” (1864)

 

June 21 2019 — According to the information disclosed in the SCCRC Report, GOLFER is a former Strathclyde Detective Sergeant  who was on the witness list at the Zeist trial. In my last post, I explained how I had managed to ‘read’ a redacted sentence which indicates that, during his first interview, GOLFER told the SCCRC investigators that he had worked in Germany. The list of all police officers who worked in the Liaison Office in Germany is known. Therefore, one would think that the identification of Golfer would be an easy task. One could be wrong.

On This Day — The Central Intelligence Agency Act Is Signed (June 20 1949) [2019]

“I think it has become necessary to take another look at the purpose and operations of our Central Intelligence Agency. At least, I would like to submit here the original reason why I thought it necessary to organize this Agency during my Administration, what I expected it to do and how it was to operate as an arm of the President. (…)

We have grown up as a nation, respected for our free institutions and for our ability to maintain a free and open society. There is something about the way the CIA has been functioning that is casting a shadow over our historic position and I feel that we need to correct it.”

Harry Truman (December 22, 1963)

June 20 2019 — On this day in 1949, President Truman signed the Central Intelligence Agency Act, permitting the CIA to use confidential fiscal and administrative procedures. Follow us on Twitter: @Intel_Today Continue reading →

On This Day — Atomic Spies Rosenbergs Executed (June 19 1953)

“It is not within my duty or my power to intervene in this matter.”

Winston Churchill

“If the English want a king, it is their business. If the Russians want communism, it is their business. If the Americans want our form of government, it is our business.”

“This death sentence is not surprising. It had to be.”

Julius Rosenberg

“Now that they are gone, you know, the truth it can be told. They were sacrificial lambs in the market place sold… They were never proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.”

Bob Dylan — Nobel Prize 2016

A lithograph of Ethel and Julius Rosenberg made and signed by Pablo Piccaso in 1952.

June 19 2019 — On Friday June 19, 1953 at 8 pm, Julius Rosenberg was strapped into the electric chair and died after the first jolt. Ethel proved a bit harder to kill. Her heart was still beating after three shocks.  Two more needed to be applied to finally end her life. At that point, witnesses saw a puff of smoke escape from her skull.

Remembering American Journalist Michael Hastings (January 28 1980 – June 18 2013) [2019]

“The CIA was also looking at infecting the vehicle control systems used by modern cars and trucks. The purpose of such control is not specified, but it would permit the CIA to engage in nearly undetectable assassinations.”

Sherlock Holmes

A former police officer, codenamed “The Golfer”, has claimed evidence had been fabricated to lay a trail to the Libyans.

Lockerbie — Who Is The Mysterious GOLFER? [Part I : Trust No One]

“If Lockerbie is Scotland’s Watergate then Golfer is our Deep Throat. Golfer is the ONLY eye witness to the planting, fabricating and corrupting of evidence. Potentially he is the whistle blower who could blast the whole official ship of lies out of the water.”

Policing Lockerbie — A Bella Caledonia Special Investigation(September 7, 2011)

June 14 2019 — In the last edition of Lobster Magazine (77), Robin Ramsay offers his thoughts on the recent developments in the Lockerbie Case. In this piece, Ramsay recalls the story of the GOLFER and his identification by a group of investigative journalists. I can state categorically that this previous identification is erroneous. Considering the recent developments in the Lockerbie saga, I believe that the time has come to take a good look at the GOLFER’s story.  Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

Norway & Russia — Former Border Inspector Behind Bars in Moscow on Charges of Espionage [UPDATE XI : Lawyers have not submitted a pardon application]

“Frode must come home, and Norwegian authorities must do what they can to get him out. It is not a good signal when such a positive and distinguished bridge-builder like Frode is arrested, it is not a good sign.”

Kirkenes town Mayor Rune Rafaelsen

“Once again we see the effects of big politics hitting us here locally, and we demand an end to that!”

Father Torbjørn Brox Webber

“I would not characterise the case as a global attack on bilateral relations. We have a relationship with Norway which develops in different areas. These kind of things happen, and it is uncomfortable, [but] our national legislation provides for adequate measures.”

Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova (December 28 2017)

Frode Berg, a 62 retired border inspector, was arrested by Russian security service agents in downtown Moscow on December 5th 2017. He is jailed  in isolation at the high-security Lefortovo prison.

Berg was allegedly caught receiving classified material about the Russian Navy that he is accused of planning to hand over to Norwegian and U.S. intelligence agencies. Berg claims that he was duped into working for Norway’s national intelligence agency.

On October 30 2018, the Moscow City Court has upheld the expanded arrest until December 5 2018. On Friday (November 30 2018), the court decided to prolong his arrest for another two months. On January 30 2019, the Moscow City Court has extended Berg’s detention until April 5 2019.

On April 16 2019, Frode Berg has been sentenced to 14 years, as requested by the prosecutor. Follow us on Twitter: @Intel_Today Continue reading →
