James DiEugenio Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Interesting new book on Kennedy vs Dulles in Indonesia. There is also fascinating new information about Hammarksjold and Kennedy's relationship, and how Dulles was likely in on that plot. A key piece of information is something I always suspected. The geologists, Dozy and Forbes Wilson camouflaged what was at the Ertsberg and Grasberg mines. So neither Kennedy nor Sukarno knew about it. http://www.ctka.net/2016/jfk-and-indonesia/book-review/the-incubus-of-intervention.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James DiEugenio Posted July 12, 2016 Author Share Posted July 12, 2016 Please note how the book implicates Allen Dulles in the assassination of Hammarskjold. This is done through Susan Miller's book, Who Killed Hammarksjold? Odd, that Talbot did not include this material in his book, The Devil's Chessboard. But further, that Truman suspected that Hammarskjold was murdered also, in fact he actually said it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger DeLaria Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I came across this title. Has anyone read it, and it is worth checking out? Who Killed Hammarskjöld? The UN, the Cold War and White Supremacy in Africa by Susan Williams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony Thorne Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Here are three reviews of the Hammarskjöld book. It does look good. http://www.dag-hammarskjold.com/interpreting-hammarskjold-s-political-wisdom/who-killed-hammarskj-ld-susan-williams-formidable-book/ http://www.innovation.cc/book-reviews/doughty_bk_rev_williams2_30v17i2a8.pdf http://lucas.leeds.ac.uk/review/who-killed-hammarskjold/ The author, Dr Susan Williams, talk about her book and the death of Hammarskjöld here. https://podcasts.ox.ac.uk/who-killed-dag-hammarskj-ld-un-cold-war-and-white-supremacy-africa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger DeLaria Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Thanks for those Anthony. I'm going to order the book, it looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James DiEugenio Posted July 13, 2016 Author Share Posted July 13, 2016 Both of these books are good. And the Poulgrain book has come down in price on Amazon. As I note, Poulgrain found out that Hammarskjold and Kennedy were even closer than observers thought they were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James DiEugenio Posted July 16, 2016 Author Share Posted July 16, 2016 Please note that in my review, I made a mistake on the author of the Hammarskjold book. Her name is Susan Williams, not Miller. Secondly, Len Osanic will be interviewing author Greg Poulgrain about his book next week on Black Op Radio. God, Len's show is better each year.

Roger DeLaria Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 That sounds great, Jim. I'll be looking forward to catching the show. Maybe this will garner wider distribution of Poulgrain's book, making it cheaper and more readily available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James DiEugenio Posted July 17, 2016 Author Share Posted July 17, 2016 That is what I am trying to achieve. His book needs a wider audience--there is some really good and new info in it. IMO, the CIA coup in Indonesia could only have happened with JFK out of the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James DiEugenio Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 Len Osanic did a very nice interview with Greg Poulgrain tonight on Black Op Radio http://www.blackopradio.com/pod/black792.mp3 Really insightful into the opposing views of JFK and Dulles in the Third World. Poulgrain has become the number one scholar on Indonesia. BTW, if you have not been listening to BOR, you should. By far the best show out there on these cases. He gets so many good guests now.
