-Caveat Lector- from: http://www.aci.net/kalliste/ <A HREF="http://www.aci.net/kalliste/">The Home Page of J. Orlin Grabbe</A> ----- Today's Lesson From Richard Tomlinson's Banned GeoCities Website by Richard Tomlinson I am a 36 year old British and New Zealand Citizen. I was educated at Cambridge University, England where I was awarded a first class honours degree in Engineering, and then did a Masters degree at Massachusetts Institute of Technology where I was a Kennedy Memorial Scholar. In 1991, I was recruited as a fast-stream intelligence officer into the British Secret Intelligence Service, more commonly known as MI6. After completing the six month initial training course with the highest marks ever achieved, I was posted to the Eastern European department of MI6 to operate undercover against Russia and Serbia. In 1993 I was posted for six months to Bosnia as the sole MI6 officer on the ground during the Bosnian civil war. On my return to the UK I worked undercover against the Iranian intelligence service. In 1995, I was dismissed from MI6 without warning, and without reason. When I tried to take MI6 to an employment tribunal, my application was blocked by MI6 who claimed that a tribunal hearing would "damage national security" and "endanger the lives of agents". This was utter fantasy. There was nothing any more secret in my personnel records than in Donald Duck's. The real reason was because MI6 knew that they had no legal grounds for the dismissal, and so chose to cower behind the protection of the British Official Secrets Act rather than face an embarassing court defeat. I have been campaigning ever since against this - and other - abuses of power by MI6. In 1996 I wrote (but did not publish) a book about MI6. I showed a five page synopsis of this book to the commissioning editor of an Australian publisher (Shona Martyn of Transworld Publishers, 40 Yeo Street, Sydney). For this, in 1997, I was arrested and convicted of breaking the British Official Secrets Act. By taking me to court, MI6 brazenly exposed the dishonesty and hypocrisy of their earlier refusal to allow me to take them to court for unfair dismissal. If the High Court was good enough for them to take me to court, then why wasn't it good enough for me to take them to court? At my hearing, I was sentenced to twelve months imprisonment in a maximum security jail. After my release from jail in 1998, I fled Britain as soon as I could, because I realised that MI6 were determined to re-arrest me for any reason they could find. When MI6 realised that I had escaped from their clutches, they embarked on a vindictive campaign of harassment against me using their influence with the intelligence services of other countries. They used false pretences to persuade the French intelligence service (the DST) to arrest and beat me in Paris in August 1998. I was detained for 38 hours, and my computer equipment was illegally taken from me. This equipment was not returned until six months later. After release, I decided to leave France and return to my native New Zealand, where I hoped that I would be left in peace. But a few days after my arrival, MI6 persuaded the New Zealand Intelligence Service to again detain and search me in Auckland. More computer equipment was confiscated from me, and again was not returned until six months later. I decided to leave New Zealand and go to Australia, where I have friends and family. But MI6 prevented this by persuading the Australian authorities to refuse me a visa, even though as a New Zealand citizen I would normally not require a visa for Australia. I therefore decided to move to Switzerland, knowing that the Swiss authorities, unlike the NZ, Australian, and French authorities, would not not harass me at the behest of MI6. But MI6 have continued to attempt to harass me at every opportunity they can. Indeed, after I gave evidence implicating MI6 to Judge Herve Stephan's inquest into the death of the Princess of Wales, Dodi Al Fayed, and Henri Paul, they have pursued me with seemingly increased vigour. In August 1998, I flew from Geneva to New York to give an interview to the NBC television chain. At JFK airport, I was detained by the US Immigration authority, fingerprinted, interviewed, chained to a chair for seven hours, then deported back to Switzerland. The US immigration authority openly admitted that they were deprorting me on the orders of the CIA, MI6's greatest ally. In January 1999, MI6 again persuaded French Intelligence to arrest me and deport me from France when I tried to cross the Swiss-French border. MI6 continue to carry out these actions despite the fact that the British Government have admitted that there is no arrest warrant out against me. Because MI6 are not legally accountable, I cannot take MI6 to court in the UK to test the legality of this harassment. MI6 claim that they cannot be accountable to the courts because this would not be secure and "would endanger agents lives". I have also tried, through my NZ lawyer, to approach MI6 discretely to find a sensible solution. But MI6 have ignored this approach and continued to harass me with increased vengeance. I therefore have no means to respond to MI6's harassment of me other than through fighting back via this internet site. I am now living in Switzerland, a country which respects human rights to freedom of speech and travel. The Swiss authorities have ignored all requests by MI6 to harass me, for which I am very grateful. ----- Aloha, He'Ping, Om, Shalom, Salaam. Em Hotep, Peace Be, Omnia Bona Bonis, All My Relations.
