jonathan moyle

An ex-Royal Air Force pilot and magazine editor, Moyle died under very suspicious circumstances in Chile in 1990. His questioning of an alleged arms deal between an American helicopter company, a Chilean arms dealer, and the government of Saddam Hussein might have led to his demise. Officially ruled to be a suicide, circumstantial and forensic evidence suggests that he may have been the victim of an assassination. And it is clear that British authorities attempted to cover up what really happened to him.

RECOMMENDED READING:

The Valkyrie Operation by UK journalist Wensley Clarkson is essential reading on this case, though we might not agree with his conclusion. See our Bookstore for details of how to buy this work.
