Tories blocked Maxwell inquiry

Maxwell stole an estimated £400m from the Mirror Group pension fund


An official inquiry into the death of Robert Maxwell was secretly blocked by ministers in John Major's Conservative government, records reveal. Malcolm Rifkind, then transport secretary, ordered that no investigation be held in Britain.

Mr Maxwell had looted an estimated £400m from the Mirror Group pension fund and was crippled by debt.

The political manoeuvring was revealed in records released to the National Archives at Kew, London.

Files show that there were fears among officials that an inquiry in Britain would spark a media frenzy.

Happy "50th" Birthday Cherie Blair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great day to release this archived material.

The real reason Major's government blocked the enquiry was to continue the massive deception of Margaret Thatcher's collusion with George Herbert Bush (as Vice President 1980-88):

1. 'Hostile' ?

"I see no point in foisting an inquiry on a country whose authorities will at best be uncooperative and, quite possibly, hostile: and which could react adversely on UK-Spanish relations."

An official in the Department of Transport, P Kitchen, found a loophole in the Merchant Shipping Act which would avoid the need for an inquiry.

The act stated that an investigation had to be held into any death on a British-registered vessel.

But an amendment said that when someone died after being "lost" from a boat, it was up to the secretary of state to decide whether an inquiry should be held.

Mr Kitchen was notified that his findings had been accepted by junior transport secretary Patrick McLoughlin and Mr Rifkind, and no inquiry would take place.

2. Not just Spanish:"ROBERT MAXWELL WAS A MOSSAD SPY"

Dec 2 2002
New claim on tycoon's mystery death
By Gordon Thomas And Martin Dillon

The Mirror

"But now, after two and a half years of investigative journalism, we believe we have unearthed the true story of Maxwell's death and can reveal how he was murdered by the Israeli secret service, Mossad.
Our work, supported by documents, including FBI reports and secret intelligence files from behind the Iron Curtain, shows Maxwell had worked as a secret super spy for Mossad for six years.

The Czech-born millionaire and former Labour MP died the way he had lived - threatening. He had threatened his wife. Threatened his children. Threatened the staff of this newspaper.But finally he issued one threat too many - he threatened Mossad. He told them that unless they gave him £400million to save his crumbling empire, he would expose all he had done for them."...............



In that time, he had free access to Margaret Thatcher's Downing Street, to Ronald Reagan's White House, to the Kremlin and to the corridors of power throughout Europe.



On top of that he had built himself a position of power within the crime families of eastern Europe, teaching them how to funnel their vast wealth from drugs, arms smuggling and prostitution to banks in safe havens around the globe.

MAXWELL passed on all the secrets he learned to Mossad in Tel Aviv. In turn, they tolerated his excesses, vanities and insatiable appetite for a luxurious lifestyle and women.He told his controllers who they should target and how they should do it. He appointed himself as Israel's unofficial ambassador to the Soviet Bloc. Mossad saw the advantage in that.Having learned many of the key secrets of the Soviet empire, Maxwell was given his greatest chance to be a super spy.Mossad had stolen from America the most important piece of software in the US arsenal. Maxwell was given the job of marketing the stolen software, called Promis.Mossad had reconstructed the software and inserted into it a device which enabled them to track the use any purchaser made of the it.Sitting in Israel, Mossad would know exactly what was going on inside all the intelligence services that bought it. In all, Maxwell sold it to 42 countries, including China and Soviet Bloc nations. But his greatest triumph was selling it to Los Alamos, the very heart of the US nuclear defence system.

6. Makes you wonder if Maxwell was murdered so that the Tories could...

...ensure that there'd never be an investigation.

They'll eat their own if there is something bigger you have to protect (ie, a crappy government complicit in the ripping off of people by their employers and by the stock market).

8. There are UK government papers relating to Robert Maxwell and

Richard McGarrach Helms and their involvement in BCCI (the London class action is currently sitting in the Royal Courts of Justice where the Bank of England is being sued for misfeasance for £1billion). Some of these were finally subpoenaed late last year from MI5 and MI6 by the plaintiffs and are to be heard in evidence, re money laundering connected to Bush 1 when VP. Helms was director and minority shareholder of BCCI Holdings in the Antilles in the early 1980s.

3. Rifkind scuppered inquiry on Maxwell - The Independent

By Terry Kirby Chief Reporter
23 September 2004


Snip:
Other theories have included the suggestion that he was the victim of an execution by Mossad, the Israeli secret service; some of the many wounds on his body were never satisfactorily explained.

4. Guardian coverage:

Tories feared Maxwell inquiry would anger Spain

Alan Travis
Thursday September 23, 2004

Snip:

In the event, the Spanish did botch the job. When a second autopsy was carried out on his body in Jerusalem, the Israeli doctors criticised the quality of the Spanish work. One doctor said the head had been opened but it was done so badly there were pieces they did not recognise and could not tell if he had suffered a blow to the head.

5. From The Scotsman:

"Dealing with someone like Robert Maxwell, for instance, you’ve got to be very careful, not so much with what you say about him but about other people who are still alive," says May.

7. From Vivelecanada:

What was even more egregious, I pointed out, was an article in the July 10, 2004, issue of the Daily Mirror about the murder by the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad of Robert Maxwell, a British publisher. It revealed that Maxwell, who was the former owner of the Daily Mirror, was a high level Mossad agent and had sold PROMIS software to Los Alamos with a back door for the Mossad to spy on the lab. In closing, I told the Regents that no matter who got the contract award, “The University of California would forever be known as the university that poisoned the world.”

9. Bush, is a three-time president

The CIA's pivotal figure, George Herbert Walker Bush, is a three-time president
of the U.S.:
vice-president over Ronald Reagan, president, and presiding father over his own
son. The election coup of the year 2000 happened under his planning and influence.
The resulting White House cabinet came out as a copy of his former administrations.
Now, in the final stages of his life, he wants to achieve what has been his
utopian goal all along. Not politics, but seizing power over the government for
imperialistic purposes, unwilling to lend any importance to social issues.

In fact, the nation now serves as a mere subsidiary system for the oil and weapons
lobbies - the two ultimate instances that threaten the survival of this beautiful planet.

In the First World War and between the wars, Donovan accepted a
number of intelligence assignments from the New World Order brigade,
including J.P. Morgan, the Rockefellers, and the Rothschilds, and on one
occasion he spent an evening with Aldolf Hitler.

In 1941 he was appointed head of the new OSS intelligence agency by
his friend from Columbia, Franklin Roosevelt. Donovan was assisted
by James Paul Warburg, the son of Paul Warburg. It was James Warburg
who said: "We shall have a world government whether or not you like it - by conquest or consent."

10. Poppy praised Maxwell, extolled his business/leadership skills

He was right up Maxwell's ass all the time.

(Maxwell) was approached by Vladimir Kryuchkov, head of the KGB.Spymaster and tycoon met in the utmost secrecy in the Kremlin.
Kryuchkov had an extraordinary proposal. He wanted Maxwell to help orchestrate the overthrow of Mikhail Gorbachev, the reformist Soviet leader. That would bring to an end a fledgling democracy and a return to the Cold War days.In return, Maxwell's massive debts would be wiped out by a grateful Kryuchkov, who planned to replace Gorbachev. The KGB chief wanted Maxwell to use the Lady Ghislaine, named after Maxwell's daughter, as a meeting place between the Russian plotters, Mossad chiefs and Israel's top politicians.

The plan was for the Israelis to go to Washington and say that democracy could not work in Russia and that it was better to allow the country to return to a modified form of communism, which America could help to control. In return, Kryuchkov would guarantee to free hundreds of thousands of Jews and dissidents in the Soviet republics.Kryuchkov told Maxwell that he would be seen as a saviour of all those Jews. It was a proposal he could not refuse. But when he put it to his Mossad controllers they were horrified. They said Israel would have no part in such a madcap plan.For the first time, Maxwell had failed to get his own way. He started to threaten and bluster. He then demanded that, for past services, he should receive immediately a quick fix of £400million to bale him out of his financial difficulties.

Instead of providing the money, a small group of Mossad officers set about planning his murder. They feared that he was going to publicly expose all Mossad had done in the time he worked for them.They knew that he was gradually becoming mentally unstable and paranoid. He was taking a cocktail of drugs - Halcion and Zanax - which had serious side effects.The group of Mossad plotters sensed, like Solomon, he could bring their temple tumbling down and cause incalculable harm to Israel.The plan to kill him was prepared in the utmost secrecy. A four-man squad was briefed.

Then Maxwell was contacted. He was told to fly to Gibraltar, go aboard the Lady Ghislaine and sail to the Canary Islands. There at sea he would receive his £400million quick fix in the form of a banker's draft. Maxwell did as he was told.ON the night of November 4, 1991, the Lady Ghislaine, one of the world's biggest yachts, was at sea. Unknown to its crew, the death squad had cast an electronic net over the yacht to block all radio transmissions.The security cameras on board had been switched off. After midnight there were only two men on the bridge. One hundred and twenty feet behind them, Maxwell appeared on deck.He had been instructed to do so in a previous message from Mossad.A small boat came alongside. On board were four black-suited men. Three scrambled on to the yacht.In a second it was all over. Two held Maxwell. The third plunged a syringe into his neck behind his ear. A measured dose of nerve agent was injected. Robert Maxwell was immobilised. He was lowered off the deck into the water.As Victor Ostrovsky, a former Mossad agent told us: "On that cold night Mossad's problems with Robert Maxwell were over." The incontrovertible facts about his murder are contained in a previously-unseen autopsy report by Britain's then-leading forensic pathologist Dr Iain West and Israel State Pathologist Dr Yehuda Hiss. Of all the documents in our possession, these reports confirm the truth about Maxwell's death.

Maybe the nerve agent syringe biz was Poppy's idea??????
