Defaulting banks - where will it stop?

[Paul Rigby]

Quigley was an "insider" who blew the whistle and thereafter was shunned. Almost all the copies of his book were taken out of circulation and the plates destroyed without his knowledge, making a reprint impossible - such was the anger and alarm of the ruling elite that the big secret had leaked out into the public domain.

Had it not been for small, independent publishing houses, Jack may have been successfully sealed back in is box.

An alternative explanation: US unilateralists, impatient with the sentimental ties to London, ensured its publication, complete with some limited criticisms of their primary instrument (CIA), and the semblance of suppression, the better to disguise their purposes. This was a fairly standard MO of the CIA, in particular, in the period (and since).

This is not to argue that Quigley was cut of the same cloth as the unilateralists: He was, after all, pretty much what he said he was - a loyal critic of the Round Table.
