Lockerbie — A Quick Note on the ‘Imperfections’ of PT/35(b)

Posted on November 1, 2017 by L

“I am asked what characteristics led us to this conclusion. I would say the layout of the circuit was the same. There were also imperfections in the circuit itself which were observable in the photograph from Scotland and also in the complete timer. It was alike a fingerprint.”

FBI SSA Thomas Thurman

 

You may want to check the “imperfection” of the tracks under the “1 shaped” pad which was deemed crucial in the identification of PT/35(b) as part of a MST-13 Timer. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

One Year Ago — CIA Releases Controversial “Bay of Pigs” History

Posted on November 1, 2017 by L

“After more than twenty years, it appears that fear of exposing the Agency’s dirty linen, rather than any significant security information, is what prompts continued denial of requests for release of these records. Although this volume may do nothing to modify that position, hopefully it does put one of the nastiest internal power struggles into proper perspective for the Agency’s own record.”

Tom Blanton — National Security Archive Director

Washington, D.C. October 31, 2016 – The CIA today released the long-contested Volume V of its official history of the Bay of Pigs invasion, which it had successfully concealed until now by claiming that it was a “draft” and could be withheld from the public under the FOIA’s “deliberative process” privilege.

Trump Adviser George Papadopoulos Pleads Guilty — Who Is “The Professor”?

Posted on October 31, 2017 by L

“One obvious question for ‘the professor’ is why he told the [Washington] Post he had ‘absolutely’ no contacts with Russian officials when on-line material suggests he has.”

Mother Jones — October 30 2017

“Let me tell you, you take on the [US] Intelligence Community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you. So even for a practical, supposedly hard-nosed businessman, Trump is being really dumb to do this.”

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer — January 3 2017

Suspicious Aviation Tragedies — Overview

Posted on October 31, 2017 by L

“Governments lie. They do it all the time. And, much as we’d like to believe otherwise, the US government is no exception. There were times when we may have believed otherwise. But after Vietnam and Watergate, we know better.”

One Year Ago — Lockerbie : Key Witness Is Dead

Posted on October 29, 2017 by L

“I personally hope that Tony is in a better place and that he is now at peace because he must have led a tortured life knowing that he had jailed an innocent man for money.”

George Thomson — Lockerbie Investigator

Tony Gauci, the Maltese man who determined the outcome of the Lockerbie trial, has died, Times of Malta is informed.

Tony Gauci (6 April 1944 – 29 October 2016) was one of the many proprietors of Mary’s House, a clothes shop in Tower Road, Sliema, Malta. Gauci was the most important witness in the Lockerbie trial.

In 2008 the Scottish Criminal Cases Review Commission (SCCRC Ref 23:19) found that US$2 million had been paid to Tony Gauci and US$1 million to Paul Gauci under the US Department of Justice “Rewards for Justice” programme.

The Los Alamos Primer — The Bethe – Feynman Equation [Nukes & Secrecy]

Posted on October 29, 2017 by L

“I returned to civilization shortly after that and went to Cornell to teach, and my first impression was a very strange one. (…) I sat in a restaurant in New York, for example, and I looked out at the buildings and I began to think, you know, about how much the radius of the Hiroshima bomb damage was and so forth. (…) I would see people building a bridge, or they’d be making a new road, and I thought, they’re crazy, they just don’t understand, they don’t understand. Why are they making new things? It’s so useless.”

Richard Feynman

The Bethe – Feynman formula is a physics equation used to estimate the efficiency of an atomic weapon. This equation is widely misunderstood and surrounded by an aura of mysticism. In this post, I will thus take the time to explain how to obtain this formula from elementary ‘undergraduate’ physics. This approach is not discussed by Serber in his Los Alamos primer and, apparently, remains ‘classified’ to this day. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

UN REPORT — External Attack Probably Caused Dag Hammarskjold’s Plane to Crash

Posted on October 28, 2017 by L

“There is a significant amount of evidence from eyewitnesses that they observed more than one aircraft in the air, that the other aircraft may have been a jet, that SE-BDY was on fire before it crashed, and/or that SE-BDY was fired upon or otherwise actively engaged by another aircraft. In its totality, this evidence is not easily dismissed.”

Judge Mohamed Chande Othman — UN Report

“The finding by Judge Mohamed Chande Othman, a senior Tanzanian jurist who was asked by the United Nations to review both old and newly uncovered evidence, gave weight to a longstanding suspicion that Mr. Hammarskjold may have been assassinated.”

New York Times — October 25 2017

25 October 2017 – A new United Nations-mandated report has found it “appears plausible” that an external attack or threat may have led to the fatal plane crash that killed former UN Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjöld.  Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

Belgium — Operation GLADIO & the “Crazy Killers Gang”

Posted on October 27, 2017 by L

“It has become clear to me that a series of investigative strategies had not yielded any satisfactory results, that there have been attempts to manipulate the investigation, while the victims and their relatives have made me understand that they have not been sufficiently heard in the past. It is possible that the killings of Walloon Brabant also targeted the state.”

Koen Geens — Belgian justice minister (October 24 2017)

“I understand that questions arise. And society — especially the victims and their families — is entitled to obtain answers. But I find it too easy to establish links with the way the police forces function today.”

Jan Jambon  — Security and Interior Deputy Prime Minister (October 24 2017)

IRAN — Belgium University Professor Death Sentenced

Posted on October 26, 2017 by L

“A scientist performing important humanitarian work has been sentenced without public trial and is looking at the death penalty. This is an outrageous violation of universal human rights, against which we should react decisively.”

Rector Caroline Pauwels — VUB [Vrije Universiteit Brussel]

“I have never acted against my country, I have never spied for Israel or any other country. My only fault is that I did not accept to use the trust of my colleagues and universities in EU to spy for Iran’s intelligence services.”

Professor Ahmadreza Djalali
