butchersapron said:"So, Larry, if Shayler is not "credible", how come he got thrown into prison by the British government for blowing the whistle on British intels links with Al-Qaeda,"
Where did he do that then? I thought you were of the opinion that AQ never actually existed anyway?
I'm of the opinion that Al-Qaeda is a US intel construct. Bin Laden, after all, is a known CIA asset. In the radio interview (which you obviously haven't listened to) Shayler tells how the person who contacted MI6 by walking into the British embassy in Tripoli offering his services for a fee, was in fact a Libyan military intelligence officer who claimed to be an associate of Osama Bin Laden. According to Shayler, the British government paid this guy "tens of thousands of pounds" to organize Gadhafi's assassination.
