John Barbour's Last Word On 'The Garrison Tapes'

[Anthony Thorne]

Very interesting Anthony. I know that Doug Anthony, National Party leader at the time was sharing a house with a CIA agent involved in the coup against Whitlam

He mentioned that too, along with a long list of names that he was able to tie from various dirty financial deals locally back to King Ranch in the US, covering both local oil companies and lucrative contracts for supplying meat to McDonalds in Australia.

Guy Rundle is up to the third part of a weekly series on the Whitlam Dismissal on Crikey (arguing the case for CIA involvement) and he's digging deeper than local journalists usually manage to do. When he's completed the series I'll post it up here for reference.
