A mainstream media source has finally plucked up the courage to publish the widespread concern among MOD, Cabinet Office and FCO officials and military that the Werritty operation was linked to, and perhaps controlled by, Mossad – something which agitated officials have been desperately signaling for some days.
“Officials expressed concern that Fox and Werritty might even have been in freelance discussions with Israeli intelligence agencies” write Patrick Wintour and Richard Norton-Taylor in the Guardian.
As I have been explaining, the real issue here is a British defence secretary who had a parallel advice structure designed expressly to serve the interests of another state and linked to that state’s security services. That is not just a sacking offence, it is treasonable.
UPDATE
It seems to me the questions now starting to be asked about the connection to Israel and possibly to Mossad might well have had a major effect on Fox’s sudden throwing in of the towel. If he did not believe that resigning would stop some further investigation, he might as well have toughed it out over the weekend; nobody has ever accused Fox of being thin-skinned.
The need for answers to my questions to Matthew Gould is in fact now greater, not less.
British politics is rotten to the core.
@Richard – not quite clear who that criticism is addressed to?
You are a fool to appeal to the Russians, they are both incompetent and capable, have proven more capable, of more bestiality and barbarism than practically any other nation on earth.
Gadaffi has a good record of shit in this regard too. Don’t forget that. He is the author of his own misfortune.
Your (Gordon is a …) report seems to be sourced to this mathaba web site which is undoubtedly a crock of propaganda shit for Gadaffi. I found this lovely quote. You call for the Russians to intervene and cite this bullshit. You immediately discredit yourself and appear as an enemy of our country – “left or right2. (“You may think this is an exaggeration, but it is not: Muammar Gaddafi is not just the leader of Libya. He is a global leader, because his Green Book anticipated, by decades, the Third Universal Theory, otherwise known as The Third Universal Way.”)

Just listening to a R4 play on the topic of “Dame” Shirley Porter’s time at Westminster Council. 5p cemeteries, gerrymandering and all. Takes me back to the good old days when an elected official could do what they bloody well liked, pocket the profits, and sod the electorate.
And then piss off to Israel…

Finally, the mainstream media comes close to telling us the truth about terror attacks planned by countries we’d like to invade. The whole tone of the above article is derisive which, considering the source, has to count as progress.
Some snippets from Philip Hammond’s Wikipedia page.
.
He joined the medical equipment manufacturers Speywood Laboratories Ltd in 1977, becoming a director of Speywood Medical Limited in 1981. In 1982, an automatic electrocardiograph electrode manufacturing plant figured among his notable achievements. He left in 1983. From 1984, he was a director in Castlemead Ltd, and from 1993–35 he was a partner in CMA Consultants, and from 1994, a director in Castlemead Homes.[5] He has had many business interests including house building and property, manufacturing, healthcare and oil and gas. He has undertaken various consulting assignments in Latin America for the World Bank in Washington, D.C., and was a consultant to the government of Malawi from 1995 until his election to Parliament.
.
Hammond’s wealth is estimated at £7.5m – £9m.
.
He registers a donation from Michael Hintze too!! and states ‘I am a beneficiary of a trust which owns a controlling interest in Castlemead Ltd, a company engaged in construction, housebuilding and property development.

Arbuthnot and Willetts also declare hospitality and financial donations respectively from Hintze and of course Fox which we know about ad nauseam.
Hintze appears in this 2008 article. By short selling Bradford and Bingley, his outfit assisted in its collapse and contributed to the crash and thence the bail out which we, our children and grandchildren will be paying for in decades hence. No wonder Hintze has been funding the leading Tories pre and post election.

News at Ten wheeled in Fox’s friend, Daniel Kawczynski, who was remarkably evasive when pressed about Fox’s er, alleged transgressions against the ministerial code. Daniel’s website obligingly supplies details of the MP’s Code of Conduct.

And what happened to Atlantic Bridge? It’s Transatlantic Bridge now.
Who’s next? Its other Tory mentors maybe?
The plot thickens here:
http://labourlist.org/fox-resignation-leaves-many-questions-unanswered
.
“But even with Fox gone, too many questions remain unanswered. Today, Geraldine Peacock, who was chair of the Charity Commission from 2002 to 2006, backed this blogger’s call for the commission to re-open its investigation of the Atlantic Bridge, and more specifically to consider whether misspent charity money should be repaid. Peacock would also like the commission to look at the level of benefit received by Liam Fox, who was a trustee. I would like that investigation to also ask whether others involved in running the charity – including advisory board members George Osborne, William Hague, Michael Gove, Chris Grayling, Eleanor Laing and John Whittingdale – benefited in any way.
.
The Atlantic Bridge’s UK charity was required to cease all its activities in July 2010 as none served any charitable purpose. It was given until September 2011 to clean-up its act, but instead opted to wind-up. Its assets were demised to another charity that neither the commission nor the Atlantic Bridge itself will reveal. Last night Newsnight revealed that senior Atlantic Bridge personnel have established a new organisation, Transatlantic Bridge, and have confirmed that the Atlantic Bridge will live on despite the winding up of its UK charity; it has always consisted of multiple legal entities and the US charity continues to trade despite questions from the IRS.
I wonder if there is something else in play ?, first Murdoch now Fox, a war going on inside the far right, a war for power ?.

“In politics, nothing happens by accident, if it happens, you can bet it was planned that way”
.
Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882-1945)
Guest, that’s almost a Marxist statement, the far right vying for power.
.
Roosevelt was only part right. Fox’s demise was an accident. It was bad judgment on his part. I doubt Fox was a puppet. There is much more to emerge when all the financial backers of Werritty are brought to light.
Still, good riddance to Fox, the back benches are far too good for him, but I’m sure he will be able to disgrace them too. It’s time for a full frontal assault on Dominic Grieve, attorney general, who believes himself to be above the law.
There’s certainly friction within the Tories. Cameron has promoted a couple of smily-face Osbornites to replace the Thatcherite Fox, so I guess he’s happier now. Not that I can see much difference – the nuances will be apparent to the faithful though. I am rather surprised that both the Times and the Telegraph have gleefully joined in the Foxhunt. Perhaps it was no real surprise to the Osborne faction that Fox had taken enough rope to hang himself?
But I’ll be interested to see if Hague, Gove and co remain in contact with Transatlantic Bridge…
John Goss, the far right have a history of fighting amongst themselves, they do it by nefarious means, always have. Given each other their FULL support while inserting the knife between the shoulder blades. Sophisticated deception, it keeps the party together.
Gutted by that shot of Sirte Mary – it reminds me of Iraq horror… Bastards!

‘The essence if the affair, however, is wider than just Fox. It is becoming apparent that Fox is part of an unofficial, slightly sub-surface international network of neocon agitators, with financial backers, lobbyists and activists. The objectives of this group are not subject to any kind of democratic process. Fox has adopted a policy position which has circumvented the processes of elected government and exposed our governance to be a charade. Certainly this network is merged with intelligence systems. And now it looks as if Fox has wilfuly merged official British foreign policy with those of an unaccountable and semi-secret quasi-commercial network. Cameron and the rest of the Tories must know this. Fox’s personal position is not a secret, although his promotion of a private position within a cabinet government is either a sacking offence, ( it cannot have any other outcome), or it is a commonly understood subterfuge shared by the cabinet and therefore some kind of conspiracy. Indeed, most of the political system, (like Nulab) must have some awareness of this matter.’
.
I think you’re absolutely right. Under the veneer of the government is a shadow or permanent government that makes major decisions and runs the intelligence services, part of whose remit is to raise as much money as possible in any manner. Many of the security companies stuffed full of ex-army/government people are I believe entities owned by the government within the government. You’ll find these companies worm their way round the world to suck in whatever they can. There’s also evidence that the intelligence services are involved in VAT and excise fraud – taxpayers’ money shifted out of the country to fund who knows what.
With regard to Chloe Smith I still stand by what I said in 2009,
.
‘I think the the most logical answer as to who Chloe Smith works for is the intelligence services.
.
If you take my belief that the political party in power is the executive of the Establishment/permanent unelected government the executive must be compliant. The executive must also have some support of the populace. If people feel they have no say then they may revolt.
.
So it’s very important for those in power to maintain the three party system and to control those members of each party. It’s also very important for the incoming party to have a large majority so that it can pass legislation with a big majority. As the economy dips further and people become embittered then some very unpopular measures will have to be taken.
.
How better to enhance a party’s image than with pretty young women. This I presume is aimed at bringing young people into political fold; the young are probably going to be the hardest hit in the recession and it’s the young who are more likely to go for violent revolution.
.
So are the ‘babes’ the answer? How many of the ‘babes’ will have odd employment histories? Have these ‘babes’ been groomed by MI5 not just to be MPs but to rise as high as possible so that they can carry out the wishes of the Establishment/permanent unelected government all the whist the rest of the country happily believes it’s living in a democracy.’
According to Stephen Lendman in OpEdNews.com on October 10th 15 TNC fighters were killed outside Bani Walid, all were carrying Israeli ID’S. Late at night, UK SAS Regiment Forces entered Sirte to carry out a special operation. Reportedly 16 were captured and 44 were killed.
Is it something new? After all Blair was surrounded by men with links to Israel and the US is run on similar lines.
One also wonders whether Oliver Letwin is really that stupid that he dumps state documents in park bins – i presume without ripping them up – who was supposed to be picking them up?
Did fox go to keep Letwin out of the news?

Israel Lobby in the British Parliament by the ZF and CFI
February 9, 2010
250 people and 73 MPs attend pro-Israel lobby at House of Commons to address major issues
.
The ZF’s largest pro-Israel lobby of Parliament took place on Wednesday, 20th January 2010, addressed by leading members of all three political parties. The two main themes of the day were: the Law of Universal Jurisdiction and the threat of a nuclear Iran.
.
Over 250 people attended the lobby, more than at any preceeding event, with standing room only in the largest committee room in the House of Commons. 73 MPs were seen and showed overwhelming support for the State of Israel and its search for peace, despite evident provocation and terrorist threats.
