MURDER OF THE LAW
A commentary on BBC 2 'ConspiracyFiles' – Dr David
Kelly's unnatural death of the 17th of July 2003 broadcast on
the 25th of February 2007
A sleek black limousine slid onto the screen a
week ago. The many devices of slick Beeb film making were to be
seen; a raven doubled as mascot on the bonnet. Presumably Mr Blair
had others in reserve at the Tower. The vehicle was steered soberly
along the highways of Oxfordshire for the first half hour during
which we were introduced to a misty woman who had turned up years
late for a screen test of 'French Lieutenant's Woman' . It later
emerged that she had no scientific knowledge although she was
happy to field questions regarding toxicity of Coproxamol and
other forensic matters. The road was level and the ride smooth.
In the last half hour the sky darkened and the
chauffeur wrenched the wheel between potholes.
The camera dwelt more on Meryl Streep and on a
Mr Michael Shrimpton - counsel to MI6 and to others he claimed.
He had been introduced to the group of doctors who had, as informed
citizens, first raised questions about the forensic and judicial
responses to the unnatural death of David Kelly MSc CMG. This
barrister was reported as saying that Dr Kelly had been shot in
the back of the head. There were other lurid allegations. He was
quickly turned away from the medical group on the assumption that
he had been inserted to discredit it. This group had contained
up to eleven doctors at one time and had within it senior men
from all specialties relevant to this very sad death.
The vehicle veered from 'conspiracy' to 'selbstmord' – self-murder.
A signpost to Inquest Completed and Proper was missed. Titillation
was needed and the lane to Harrowdown Hill chosen. There lay a
blunt pruning knife and three used blister packs of Coproxamol,
but with one tablet in situ. Prof Plum and Miss Scarlet etc were
in the wings.
The evidence from the professorial experts was
very much open to question, but the questioning has yet to take
place at an inquest rather than on prime time TV. Trial by TV,
though customary, is yet to be incorporated in English law. The
psychiatric expert purported to know a great deal about Dr Kelly's
thoughts without knowing him at all, and the forensic scientist
conveyed an impression that a fit man like Kelly could die from
almost trivial haemorrhage. The entertainment ended with Professor
Alistair Hay stating his wish for this fine public servant to
be remembered for his qualities and not with a miasma of 'conspiracy
theories' about the grave.
Let this vehicle exit for use by an escort agency.
What is needed in the investigation of this - arguably the most
high profile death in the UK for decades? The doctors have said
that there was little right about the forensic investigation,
that many questions were not asked or left unanswered and that
due process had been subverted at every turn. Their answer was
not to shout 'murder', but to urge that the inquest be re-opened
and with all rigour.

)
They were told that a judicial review was required to achieve
that since the coroner had seen no 'exceptional circumstances'
to re-open it. He was advised by Lord Falconer in this.
The rigour of the Hutton Inquiry is symbolised
by the following extract from the transcript. Note that no relevant
questioning of Dr Nicholas Hunt, Home Office forensic pathologist,
follows the extraordinary phrase 'if one ignores ....':-
Q. You have already dealt with this, I think, but
could you confirm whether, as far as you could tell on the examination,
there was any sign of third party involvement in Dr Kelly's death?
A. (Dr Hunt) No, there was no pathological evidence to indicate
the involvement of a third party in Dr Kelly's death. Rather,
the features are quite typical, I would say, of self inflicted
injury, IF ONE IGNORES ALL THE OTHER FEATURES OF THE CASE
Q. Is there anything else you would like to say
concerning the circumstances leading to Dr Kelly's death?
A. Nothing I could say as a pathologist, no.
Lord Hutton: Thank you for YOUR VERY CLEAR EVIDENCE .....
The writer said this in the first letter published
on this case in the Morning Star of the 15th of December
2003. Nothing has changed since then and the 'conclusions' of
my Lord Hutton's inquiry have not been given as a verdict by a
coroner. Instead, the inquest remains adjourned - though confusion
has been added here as well.
'As a trauma and orthopaedic surgeon I cannot easily
accept that even the deepest cut into one wrist would cause such
exsanguination that death resulted. The two arteries are
of matchstick size and would have quickly shut down and clotted.
Furthermore we have a man who was expert in lethal substances
and who apparently chose a most uncertain method of suicide.'
He soon learned that only one small artery had been cut, and that
cleanly. Cleanly cut small arteries contract, retract and clot
very quickly.
The BBC has a lot to answer to since its founding
in 1922. Its stated mission is to inform, educate and entertain.
The latter function has been served by Conspiracy Files. Its record
has been consistent. In the General Strike it promulgated the
parliamentary line and allowed no serf to speak. With its skills,
reach and 'brand' its political potency is great. It has for instance
reinforced black propaganda in the lead up to Bush/Blair's 'shock
and awe' – the 'sturm und drang' of the Third Reich. So only 3%
of broadcasting time on Iraq was given over to people with firm
'anti-Iraq war' views. And it is no surprise the same imperialist
agenda is being given respectability by the BBC for pre-emptive
and massive bombardment of another sovereign country, Iran. The
other day the 'Prince of Darkness', Mr Richard Perle was able
to mouth his apocalyptic nonsense on the Today programme with
hardly a tutter from Mr Naughtie. Deja vu is in order. All this
is hardly the BBC's motto 'Nation Shall Speak Peace Unto Nation'
is it?
(See www.informationclearinghouse.info/article5413.htm)
The inclusion of Mr Richard Spertzel in 'Conspiracy
Files' encapsulates a good deal of the lying, the Atlanticist,
the racist and supremacist qualities of the 'special relationship'
which is fed by the BBC in mostly subtle ways.
He is said to have been a friend of David Kelly's and served with
him on the deeply contaminated UNSCOM. He said strongly that his
friend had been assassinated, but by the Iraqis! Irony is certainly
dead, but here was one of the rednecks accusing a people who had
lost thousands upon thousands of souls, and three times as many
their limbs, eyes and minds at the hands and with the high explosive
of his ilk. In Congressional hearings in September 2002 he was
claiming all sorts of things - 'It has had 12 years to advance
its viral capability and, as I have cited elsewhere, this almost
certainly includes smallpox as an agent."
( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_O._Spertzel
)
He was adding this most terrible virus to the medium of fear which
Chalabi had also been culturing. He was alleging that Saddam might
use the same virus as was used by the Europeans on blankets in
the genocide of the North American Indian. Did David Kelly believe
any words of Spertzel's? Whatever, Mr Spertzel can be listened
to on the speaking circuit, and he will shortly be joined for
bigger fees by our own 45 minutes expert. 'Experts' are to the
fore.
We must cling to the laws that we have left and
in the case of the unnatural death of David Kelly
MSc CMG the doctors' group demands a full inquest
with a jury.
