Pan Am Flight 103 was destroyed by a bomb over Lockerbie, Scotland. This was little understood at the time, but may have been a covert assassination of UN Assistant Secretary-General, Bernt Carlsson, who was on his way to attend a ceremony at United Nations headquarters in New York to grant independence to Namibia.

Events
Event | Date | Description |
---|---|---|
Operation Paperclip | A transfer of top German scientists to USA. | |
Cold War | The official narrative had 2 diametrically opposed systems locked in combat with one another since soon after WW2. Each of the "superpowers" and its team of allies needed to outdo each other by creating ever more and deadlier weapons, creating a kind of perpetual war for perpetual peace, with the warring parties engaging mainly in covert/proxy wars. Deep state interests blossomed in the climate of fear and paranoia. | |
The Troubles | The sectarian conflict in Northern Ireland which flared into serious sustained violence through the summer of 1969 | |
Operation Condor | ||
Inslaw | The Inslaw affair was a complex financial/political fraud the full dimensions of which were never uncovered, but some of which were forced onto the official record. | |
Project STARGATE | Project STARGATE aimed to gain domination over entire nations by making them cede their autonomy and privacy to the controlling person or group. | |
1980s Afghan war | ||
Arms-to-Iraq | ||
Iran-Iraq war | ||
Al-Yamamah arms deal | A complex series of multi billion dollar arms for oil deals set up under the government of Margaret Thatcher, involving a bunch of deep state arms dealers, and her son - who earned £12 million. Fines levied have been in the hundreds of millions, while kickbacks amount to billions. | |
BRISPEC sting operation | FBI California entrapment that didn't touch Willie Brown | |
Savings and loan fraud | "The largest theft in the history of the world", carried out in broad daylight, with legislative assistance. So many US politicians were directly or indirectly involved, that it was never properly exposed and efforts are ongoing to try to hide the fact that it was no mere accident. | |
Franklin child prostitution ring | A US/Deep state backed child prostitution ring centered around Larry King that was partially exposed | |
Pergau Dam affair | A "fateful arms-for-aid deal" signed off at the highest level. | |
Le Cercle/1988 (South Africa) | ||
Bilderberg/1988 | ||
Iran Air Flight 655 | ||
Pan Am Flight 103 | When Pan Am Flight 103 exploded over Lockerbie, Scotland on 21 December 1988, killing all 259 passengers and crew on board, news reports cited UN Assistant Secretary-General, Bernt Carlsson, as its highest-profile victim. US and British intelligence operatives, posing as Lockerbie investigators, ignored the evident targeting of the UN diplomat and instead focused on the jumbo jet. With the result that the wrong country was blamed and an innocent person convicted of the Lockerbie bombing. | |
Pan Am Flight 103/Cover-up | Just a few weeks after the December 1988 newspaper reports, Bernt Carlsson's name was more or less erased from the corporate media reporting of the Lockerbie event. |
