"MI5 Head Warns al-Qaeda Is Planning 'Mass Casualty Attacks against the West.'" The Independent, 9 Jan. 2015. [http://www.independent.co.uk]
Director General of MI5 Andrew Parker "said in a speech at the MI5 headquarters in London that extremists still wanted to 'cause large scale loss of life' by targeting transport networks and landmarks.... He told the the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI):... 'We know, for example, that a group of core al-Qaeda terrorists in Syria is planning mass casualty attacks against the West.'" Kim Sengupta, "Charlie Hebdo Attack: MI5 Chief Reveals Britain Faced Four Major Terror Plots in Past Year," The Independent, 9 Jan. 2015, adds that Parker also said that "Britain has faced four major terrorist plots in the past year, three of them in the past few months alone."

"[T]he CIA fostered and promoted American Abstract Expressionist painting around the world for more than 20 years.... [I]n the propaganda war with the Soviet Union, this new artistic movement could be held up as proof of the creativity, the intellectual freedom, and the cultural power of the US. Russian art, strapped into the communist ideological straitjacket, could not compete."

Brown, WIR 13.3: This book "contributes heavily to national myth.... References abound ... tying the CIA, DIA, Department of Defense, and high government officials to an ongoing ... conspiracy ... designed to keep these men in captivity.... [T]he sources used by the authors ... are the mainstays on the POW/MIA activist circuit.... Sins of omission also abound." The authors omit "anything that does not support their case" and "appear only too eager to accept the half-truths and distortions of the activists." The book "does a serious disservice to the POW/MIA issue."
