Spicer threatens to sue Craig Murray

It’s about time that I broke radio silence on here, and this certainly merits it.

Former diplomat Craig Murray is having another run-in with Schillings, the lawyers who briefly managed to get his website taken down on behalf of Uzbek oligarch Alisher Usmanov.

Now they are attempting to block the publication of my new book in the
interests of mercenary commander Tim Spicer, one of those who has made
a fortune from the Iraq War. It is sad but perhaps predictable that
private profits from the illegal Iraq war, in which hundreds of
thousands of innocent people have died, are providing the funding to
try to silence my book.

The Road to Samarkand sounds as if it will be very interesting.

Among the incidents I cover in my new book are the murder of Peter
McBride, the Aegis Trophy Video, the Papua New Guinea coup, the
Equatorial Guinea plot, Executive Outcomes’ murder of civilians in
Angola and the Arms to Africa affair. I do hope that other bloggers
will generate another Streisand effect through blogging on these
subjects.
