Kelly was Murdered' Says UK Intelligence Insider

Shocking new details about the death of Dr David Kelly emerged today
exclusively on the Alex Jones radio show. Michael Shrimpton, a UK
national security lawyer who was a guest on the show, revealed that
sources within MI5 and MI6 are `furious' that Kelly was murdered.

Shrimpton spoke in depth about the details of Kelly's murder on 17th
July 2003, information which has been withheld by the British press.

With apparent backing from the organisations whose members he claims to
speak for, Shrimpton presented their view that Dr Kelly had been
murdered by a team of assassins and the charade of an apparent suicide
was then played out to cover this up.

Speaking with impeccable credentials, including contributions to the
Journal for International Security Affairs and having previously given a
closed-doors confidential briefing the US Senate Intelligence Committee,
Shrimpton exploded the much-reported myth that Dr Kelly had taken his
own life.

He spoke of the probable method of Kelly's death, the group which most
likely carried out the assassination, who arranged it and finally where
the responsibility lies. Additionally, he explained the political
context and motive for Kelly's murder.

David Kelly went missing on 17th July 2003 and was found dead on 18th
July. In the previous days, Kelly had testified before Parliament's
Foreign Affairs Select Committee that he was not the source of a BBC
story which had accused the Government of making false claims about
Iraq's WMD. When Kelly's body was found, the British press quickly
reported it as a suicide, though several analysts had their doubts.

On Jones' show, Shrimpton explained how he had learned that David Kelly
was the BBC's source before the BBC disclosed this fact.

He went on to explain that his source from within the intelligence
community knew David Kelly personally, and did not believe that he had
committed suicide. After making their own enquiries, says Shrimpton,
this source determined that Dr Kelly had not committed suicide, but
rather had been assassinated.

Apparently at ease to discuss these explosive disclosures, Shrimpton
explained that there was advance knowledge of Kelly's death in
Whitehall, but that the deed itself was most likely carried out by the
French external security organisation, DGSE. There was no indication
that anybody in MI5 or MI6 had been involved. He went further by
suggesting that the hit squad itself was composed of Iraqis from the
former regime's Mukhabarat intelligence organisation, recruited from
Damascus with the help of Syria's own intelligence apparatus. They were
apparently then flown into Corsica, seven days prior to the murder. He
doubts that any of the hit-squad are still alive.

Officially, Kelly's body was said to have been found in a copse, in a
wood, but the forensic tents were set up in the adjacent field,
suggesting, says Shrimpton, that the body was found in the field. This
has not been explained to his satisfaction.

The incision in Kelly's wrist was probably to conceal the injection of
both Dextroprypoxythene, the active ingredient in Co-Proxamol, and
Succinylcholine, a muscle relaxant, rather than as evidence of his
bleeding to death, as highlighted by a group of six doctors in letters
published in the British press. Shrimpton further agreed with the
doctors by pointing out that Kelly only had one Co-Proxamol tablet in
his body and that this was not sufficient to kill him.

According to Shrimpton, Kelly was murdered because he had been talking
to the press and there was a fear of what else he might discuss with
journalists. Furthermore, Kelly was due to return to Iraq and may have
learned fresh information on that trip which Whitehall could not afford
to trust him with.

Shrimpton's appearance on Jones' show gave him the first public
opportunity to bring forward his information, since the story has been
effectively censored by the British Press, who according to Shrimpton
are concerned about losing the pro-Euro Tony Blair as Prime Minister
were they to publish details of Kelly's assassination.

Blair's departure, he says, could threaten Britain's proposed adoption
of the Euro as the national currency.

Whilst this story begins to circulate in the USA, the coverage in the
UK may well remain nil, whilst maneuvering behind the scenes attempts to
pre-empt Shrimpton's accusation of government-sanctioned murder of one
of its own operatives.

Only with public support, and a belief that this information should be
widely known, can this information be brought into the wide open and
covered by the mainstream media.

Dr David Kelly - latest
Monday 16th February 2004

"According to Skolnick and Bloom, a London newspaper is sitting on a
"firestorm, while insisting key Intel official allow use of his name.
He confirms P.M. Tony Blair ordered assassination of MI-6 top scientist,
Dr. David Kelly, about to finger Blair on phony data instigating
Bush/Blair attack seizing Iraq oil.

Lord Hutton Inquiry, finding of Kelly "suicide" a fraud, Intel official
also says.

Story release, Editor says, would oust Bush/Blair."

The UK Channel 5 television station ran a programme on Friday, called
`Germ Warfare: Dr Kelly's Last Interview'. It details some of Dr Kelly's
history with bio-chem warfare and in particular his role in covertly
inspecting USSR installations.

Disinformation bullshite

It makes you wonder-- so Dr Strangelove Shrimpton wants to put it about that Iraqi intelligence, with Syrian, and best of all French help, murdered Kelly. Lets ask the magic question : cui bono? who benefits? Certainly none of these parties above. This is a fucking SMEAR, and it makes you wonder if there is not more in the mortar than the pestle.

Who benefitted from Kelly's death, from Kelly's inability to tell his side of the story about the activity of the Rockingham cell, and the deliberate manipulation of intelligence and of public opinion by elements of the British and American intelligence communities?

If it was murder, it was certainly some part of the British or American intelligence community which was responsible. Kelly was under their close supervision when supposedly he slipped off to commit suicide. Do you think that anyone, other than someone they permitted, would have gotten close to him at that sensitive time?

(You-- and you know who I am talking to here -- simply don't believe these kinds of things are possible. But just think about it for a moment. It is in the nature of your team that the right hand will never know what the left does)

Who benefits

25.02.2004 22:26

I can believe that these groups could potentially benefit: mostly Bliar government (together with establishment figures like Lordy Hutton & Co. leading 'inquiries' to create whitewash smokescreens), also US/UK intelligence agencies, US government, pro-Europeans. I don't however see that the French would have enough reason to get involved. Any Iraqis if involved, even if pro-war are most likely to be pawns in the game to expand the US (&UK) power base in the middle east via Iraq and control OIL.
