The Suicide of Orlando Zapata Tamayo
by
Salim Lamrani | Paris (France) |
The Western media and diplomatic circles deplored the suicide in prison of Orlando Zapata Tamayo, who was portrayed as a victim of the "Cuban dictatorship". However, this human tragedy was grossly misrepresented: Zapata was never involved in politics. Once again, observes Salim Lamrani, Western propaganda distorts the facts and manipulates them to justify, post factum, Washington’s animosity towards Cuba.

by
Rick Rozoff | Chicago (USA) |
Less than two years since its military aggression against South Ossetia, Georgia was thrown into panic overnight as a fake report of a Russian attack was shown on Imedi TV. President Saakashvili called the incident "unpleasant but useful", alleging that such reports could prevent similar real-life occurrences! Ahead of national elections in May and imminent discussions on the Georgian-South Ossetian conflict, feigning a permanent threat from Russia might be Saakashvili’s last argument for staying in power, but one which could also easily backfire.

CIA: What Really Happened in the quiet French village of Pont-Saint-Esprit
by
Hank P. Albarelli Jr. |
A U.S. journalist, who was investigating the Cold War mind-control experiments conducted by the CIA, came across some documents relating to an obscure episode in France that was never elucidated. He alleges that in 1951 the CIA was testing for a secret weapon: the aerosol spraying of LSD. The experiment was reportedly carried out in a French village, whose inhabitants and authorities were kept completely in the dark. But it went wrong and caused the death of 7 people.
We asked Hank Albarelli to provide a summary of his investigation for the readers of Voltaire Network.
