Mordet på Olof Palme - 28 februari 1986

Nej du hade rätt, men det var alltså något debacle med Thunborg och Schori inblandade.

Vad vi vet är att det finns vittnesmål om olika typer av WT-personer.

Vissa kan ha varit knarkspanare. Och vissa av knarkspanarna kan ha haft en uppgift i MOP. Det finns uppgifter om att Barbrogruppen kan ha varit där. Och en uppgift om att FMN i samverkan med Barbrogruppen övade radiosamband. Lite som den ryska dockan: inom FMN gömmer sig kanske Barbro och inom Barbro gömmer sig kanske SB och inom SB gömmer sig kanske ett mordkommando, ungefär som Gladio II gömde sig inom Gladio?

Med stor säkerhet vet ingen av oss i tråden allt om detta även om vissa försöker ge intryck av detta.

Vi vet inte mycket om hur mordet var organiserat. Just att dyka upp bakom ett medelålders par och skjuta dem i ryggen var nog inte svårt att organisera. Men det tycks finnas mer bakom. Tecken på att platsen var utsedd på förhand och tecken på att LOP påverkades att gå på en viss biograf just denna kväll.

Man kanske också bör ta Lars-Kristian Berghs uppgifter mer på allvar? Vad var det som Dan Klöfverskjöld skulle ha sagt? Jo, att Bergh inte skulle behöva tänka på någonting runt mordet. Han skulle bara behöva stå på en viss plats, dit Palme skulle levereras, för att då skjuta honom med ett anonymt vapen.

Behövde han ens tänka på att fly? Jag kan tänka mig ett flertal arrangemang där mördaren inte behövde fly från platsen...

Precis och DF skrönar om SB förband som är sammansatta på ett orealistiskt sätt och som uppträder och övar på ett orealistiskt sett. Det han beskriver inträffar dessutom i tid och till plats med WT-observationer mycket dåligt...

Det går att läsa sig till vissa saker som bekräftar det jag säger men det står inte allt på google eller wikipedia. Den som vill forska kan gräva i materialet och så finns det ju ett antal personer att både fråga och med förstahandskunskaper och egna erfarenheter.

Låt mig uttrycka mig som så. En lokal grupp kunde omfatta personer som hade civila karriärer som företagare, inom bank och finans, inom, televerket, offentliga administrationen, låssmeder och vanliga arbetare, folk med flygutbildning, marin utbildning etc. Kolla bara på de som är kända.

Aldrig var det renodlade kustjägar- eller FRO-grupper.

Man måste blunda hårt, mycket hårt för att inte förstå att DF:s uppgifter är dåliga lögner. Wt övervakningen följer samma mönster som när Säpotrion skuggade Palme på privat initiativ och blev upptäckta och de som under en tid följde OP följde observerades och agerade vilket var så som t ex civilspanare agerade.

Det kallas projektion när du överför dina egenskaper på mig. Jag har aldrig tolkat stjärnbilder, symboler och anagram för att hitta "sanningen" Jag vänder inte från en hypotes till en annan på klacken. Jag gör kritiska och sakliga analyser utifrån tillgänglig kunskap där du "tror".

Citat:

Projektion, en term som används inom psykologin för att beskriva en försvarsmekanism som en person begagnar sig av då den inte vill eller kan kännas vid sina egna svagheter tillskriver andra personer eller sin omgivning dessa egenskaper för att försvara sin självbild.

Nej enkla kontrollfrågor som visar att DF:s berättelse är falsk är lätta att hitta i offentliga källor.

Men ditt svar är som vanligt då du ställs inför argument du inte kan bemöta sakligt att kasta invektiv mot motståndaren. Det är både symptomatiskt och beklagligt.

Jag tittade på en intervju med FU ledaren Krister P genomförd av Hasse Aro i krimkvarten nyligen.
Hasse Aro hävdar att mordet på OP sannolikt ej är en konspiration pga att GM i så fall skulle valt en annan plats för dådet, alltså inte bland så mycket folk.
Det är en rationell och sund tankegång, men...
En konspiration kan ju även gå till så att man vill att mordet ska se ut som en ensam GM.
Hur gör man det enklast.
Jo man tar kontakt med kriminella personer (kan vara flera)och utlöser en belöning på antal miljoner kr till den av dem som knäpper OP.
Sedan förser man denna person som tackat ja med info om när bästa läget är att genomföra det.
I detta fall gav man GM eller männen info om att OP skulle på biobesök och att ikväll är bästa läget.

Att utföra dådet på den plats det utfördes var det bästa tänkbara eftersom att flyktvägarna är fler än tex om dådet utförts i gamla stan där OP bodde, Gamla stan hade varit enklare för polisen att spärra flyktvägarna.
Man kan väl säga att Hasse Aro delvis har rätt att det var en ensam GM, men sannolikt är att regissören är några andra
Jag tror att om vi får reda på sanningen så kommer många av de spår som finns i dag flyta ihop till ett och samma, idag utesluter många ett spår pga ett annat spår vilket kan vara fel.

Däremot tror jag CP icket har nåt med detta att göra. Det känns långsökt.

Sen tror jag att GM och kanske andra inblandade har varit hårt bevakade av regissören efter mordet och vid minsta snedsteg har de röjt dessa ur vägen.
Även vissa vittnen har man haft koll på.
Kanske t.o.m Lisbeth P.

Nej det är inte en rationell och sund tankegång och har ingen referens i verkligheten.

Tvärt om är det så att mordkonspirationer mot offentliga personer mycket sällan sker utanför det offentliga.

Mönstret är att ensamma galningar däremot begår sina handlingar helst inför publik. En Ensam galning hade alltså troligen slagit till direkt vid biografen eller stått vid OP:s port och väntat. Det finns många exempel på sådant med attentat mot offentliga personer. Reagan mfl.

Tillvägagångssättet. Konstaterad tidigare övervakning, val av plats etc pekar mycket tydligt mot att det är någon slags konspiration med flera inblandade.

Vad jag tror mig veta om WT-observationerna. rätta mig i de delar ni tycker jag har fel.
Finns det mer säkerställd information som jag missat?

Det fanns folk i närområdet på mordkvällen med WT.
Med tanke på antalet observationer bör det ha varit fler än en person med WT.
Det finns ingen officiell förklaring till dessa observationer.
WT-bärarna har inte varit så särskilt diskreta.
Det verkar som att dessa observationer inte undersöktes nämnvärt vare sig av Holmer eller Ölvebro,
eventuellt på hemlig basis.
Det är ingen av WT-bärarna som gått fram offentligt och förklarat sin närvaro..
Det tog ungefär 30 år innan man officiellt gick ut och sa att man skulle undersöka dessa observationer, men det har inte kommit fram någon konkret information än så länge.

Några vittnen som lämnat informationer om WT-bärare har blivit förlöjligade av de tidigare spaningsledningarna.

sammanfattning sydafrikaspåret:

Sven Aner, the Africa specialist/journalist Per Wästberg told the Swedish police 5 days after Palme's murder that there could be a SA involvement, but the police didn't even border to register Wästberg's two letters. The police seemed clearly not willing to investigate the SA trail. ....
Information from Engl&:
1. A few days after the murder of Olof Palme. The British Intelligence, MI6, received a strange report: the man who had murdered Olof Palme had been acting under orders from the SA security police. Members of the death squad Koevoet, or COIN, were behind the murder. The SA agent, Craig CW, was mentioned as the designer of the plans to murder Palme, aided by Swedish police men.
2. At about the same time, Karl-Gunnar Bäck, the GS of the Civil Defence Force Association was contacted by an old acquaintance from Engl&. He told him that the MI6 had information on the murder of Olof Palme. The informant claimed that Palme was murdered by (members of the) SA security forces. A Swedish policeman was also indicated (to have participated). ...
3. The Palme-investigators received another lead on involvement from SA together with Swedish accomplices. - An informant, a known thug, who for the moment was serving a jail sentence, said that he was convinced that Swedish policemen helped SA agents in the murder of Palme. Some Swedish police men were members of the IPA, International Police Association. They ran a training camp in Rydsford & they had made several trips to SA where they had met with representatives of the SA security police The policemen & the IPA should also have had secret premises & weapons at a meeting place in Wallingatan 32 (Stockholm), a few blocks from the crime scene. According to an informer these policemen were nazis, bore arms while off duty & had frequent contact with SAn agents . It was almost certain that the World anti-Communist League (WACL) had also an office in that same building.
- There has been an internal investigation of six policemen known for right-wing sympathies, who paid, on several occasions, visits to SA in the mid 1980s
-...
- Johan Coetzee was sitting at a diplomatic function (early 1996) next to a person of the Swedish Embassy at Pretoria & when Coetzee heard that this lady was from Sweden, he said that he remembered the tough days that Sweden & SA didn't have good contacts , but that however he as commissioner of police always he had good contacts & how the Swedish police had visited SA through the IPA. Question: What did these policemen do in SA, who did they visit there etc.
- Swedish journalist who recently visited SA & tried to see the guestbooks of the IPA guesthouses in Cape Town, Jo'burg & Pretoria were told, that they were destroyed
4. -After the assassination of Prime Minister Olof Palme, Bertil Wedin (or "Morgan" or John Wilson, here called BW) a Swedish right-winger, who in the past had worked for Craig CW, acted, according to Hasselbohm, as the initiator of the PKK-lead, which soon became the main lead in the search for Palme's killer. The Kurdish PKK is the Turkish government's main enemy, which has battled Ankara security forces in Turkey since 1984. BW seems to have faked this link with the PKK & passed it to a journalist on the Turkish daily Hurriyet. He located six or seven members of the PKK-group that killed Palme. This promotion of the PKK-lead was made more than three months before Hans Holmer, Stockholm chief of police & head of the Palme murder investigation, claimed for the first time that "PKK is behind the murder of Olof Palme." This became the investigation's main lead, with police chief Hans Holmer & Ebbe Carlsson as it's promoter & lobbyist. A major police sweep of PKK sympathisers in Sweden followed but investigators later had to give up this lead
- BW is a Swedish right wing extremist, & former informant for the Swedish security police. He always openly declared that he was working against the Swedish social democratic government & especially against Prime Minister Olof Palme.
He is/was a friend of Göran Assar Oredsson, leader of the neo-nazi party Nordiska Rikspartiet. BW was an officer of the United Nations peace-keeping forces in the Congo (1961) & Cyprus(1963).In Cyprus he served as a lieutenant, for several periods, on the staff intelligence unit in the UN forces.
... At this time BW became a regular informant for the Swedish security police (Säpo). He supplied them with information on left-wing Swedes.
At the same time as he was a security police informant, BW also worked for a Swedish bank (Stockholm Enskilda Bank). BW, who now calls himself a journalist, produces the newsletter for the bank. Recently BW confirmed that he had been involved in military intelligence, & stay-behind work.
In 1976 a Swedish newspaper wrote that BW most probably was behind newspaper advertisements trying to recruit mercenaries for service in Southern Africa. ...
- Craig CW (see below) recruited BW as a SAn spy. BW said he had met CW in SA in 1980. CW had introduced him to Peter Casselton, based in London, to whom BW had to report. Casselton was a British citizen, but a SA agent, who had given BW the codename "John Wilson".
- BW became involved in break-ins at various anti-apartheid organisation offices in London. A letter from Craig CW to BW resulted in a police search of the Swede's twelve-room house in Townbridge, Kent. The police found stolen material, as well as notes from documents stolen from the office of the PAC. They also found a map over the area around the PAC office, showing the way to the underground station Dollis Hill, as well as sketches of the office itself.
BW told the police that via a bank account in Switzerland, he was paid 1.000 pounds per months (much more in today's value) in salary by CW, plus costs. He also received camera equipment. After being interrogated at the Rochester Row police station in London, the Swede was soon released on bail.
As opposed to Casselton & Aspinall, BW declared himself not guilty at the court proceedings in Old Baily on 17 December 1982. The judge agreed that he could remain free on bail. During the trial against him in April BW claimed never to have given the SAns information. The judge noted that he then could not underst& what BW had done to earn the money the SA had paid him.... The Swede was acquitted. - However, after being acquitted BW admitted to the press that he had supplied information to the company Africa Aviation Consultants on the Isle of Man. But he claimed to have done it in "good faith", without knowing that CW's & Casselton's company was a front for the SA security service. In SA the CW-lead London operation was regarded a greet success.
- According to Hasselbohm, in 1985 BW held a key position in an organisation called Victims Against Terrorism (VAT), a major SA propaganda operation in Europe. ...
-November 1985 BW & his family flew to Northern Cyprus. On their arrival cards they declared that they were going to settle there permanently. BW was issued with a Turk-Cypriot ID-card in March 1986. On at least one previous occasion the Swede had, for unknown reasons, gone to Cyprus (using the undercover name "John Wilson") together with the SAn agent Peter Casselton. Right after his arrival in Northern Cyprus, BW was employed by the Ministry of Information there. ...
- It is after the assassination of Palme that BW took on his new role as the initiator of the PKK-lead. Wedin denied any involvement in the assassination of Olof Palme.
...
5. Heine Human (45),is allegedly a Swede of SA origen, who came to Sweden in the beginning of the 80's . ..
- During the time of Palme's murder Human lived in some God- forgotten-place outside Uppsala where he has some sort of car repair shop. Fourteen minutes after the murder of Palme an elderly couple in Stockholm (Bromma) received a mysterious phonecall with the message: "The job is done, Palme is dead". ..
- Human left Sweden in a hurry after the Palme assassination, without saying goodbye to his neighbours. ...
- In the past Human claimed to be a SAn agent & that he had been involved in Dulcie September's murder . ANC intelligence officers interviewed him in Harare (Zimbabwe) but according to Tor Sellström who lived during that time also in Harare, there were doubts about Human's claims. He might have done something, but his stories didn't make much sense.
6. There are also reports of three men who camped out in a white combi for some weeks before the murder. It was cold that winter, with snow on the ground, but to avoid registration, they did not stay in a hotel. The camping van is believed to have come from neighbouring Finl& to the east & possibly drove out via Norway in the west. It was claimed that the men were SAns
7. Swedish newspapers claim that two policemen said that SA's superspy Craig CW was in Stockholm at the time of the anti-apartheid conference & was there also on the night of the murder. Through IPA CW allegedly hired a room (under a false name) in a guesthouse belonging to the IPA (Kammakargatan 36), down the road two hundred meters from the spot where Palme was shot (?? I doubt it -KdJ- if this is true, because CW was too well known in Sweden).

Sydafrika (II)
- CW, former major in SA's security police & since Dec. 1985 employed by military intelligence (MI), knows Sweden & Stockholm well. CW had infiltrated ("Operation Daisy") the Geneva-based & Swedish-funded International University Exchange Fund (IUEF). The fund had "virtually been run from Palme's office" & one of the key links was Bernt Carlsson ...Eriksson was anti-communist & wanted to support a third force, especially the Black Consciousness Movement ..., which was just what the SAns liked ...
- From 1977 until his exposure as spy in 1980, CW visited the Swedish capital on several occasions. He had the ear of people with power & usually stayed at the Birger Jarl Hotel round the corner from the Swedish aid agency, SIDA. At least one of these visits -in April 1978- was kept secret from his usual hosts in the Foreign Ministry. Within walking distance of the Aston Hotel where CW was then staying, lay the ANC office, where there was an unexplained break-in. Nothing was taken, but the files were disturbed. ...
- At a press conference in Stockholm early in 1980 Lars Gunnar Eriksson said that security police chief Johan Coetzee had approached him in a hotel in Geneva. Johan Coetzee asked Eriks son to keep CW's police identity a secret for another six months, so that CW could nestle in, closer to the ANC. The revelations shocked Eriksson, who fled to Sweden.
- When auditors checked IUEF's books, they found a financial mess. CW had been siphoning off IUEF funds to build Daisy Farm, in the Pretoria region. Daisy Farm focused on apartheid foes abroad. It was section A, a special unit of the SA police which was in charge of the anti-apartheid strugglers abroad & its chief was CW...
- CW admitted that Wedin was working for him, but also another Swede. Don't know who that would be (perhaps Human?).
- CW admitted to be responsible for the murders of Ruth First & the wife & daughter of the ANC-activist Marius Schoon but denied any involvement in the assassination of Olof Palme.
The Swedish People's Parliament against Apartheid:
This "parliament" was organised by the Swedish anti-apartheid groups & announced a long time before it was actually held (from 21-23 February 1986). Among others the participation of Oliver Tambo, Thabo Mbeki & Abdul Minty of the ANC was announced as well as that of representatives of the UDF & SWAPO.
- A possible scenario?:
It is imaginable that SAns would be interested & moved in with some agents or even a hitsquad. Craig CW who knew Stockholm well, would almost certainly be involved
Craig CW said in an interview with Tor Sellström that "Sweden was badly worked & not well penetrated. So it was very much left to political contacts", which could only mean, with right wing groups in Sweden, who could function as a kind of local (sleeping) network (?? see point 3; perhaps men like Human & Wedin & their contacts).
- Although security would be tight (as indeed it was), it would be easy to keep track of the movements of persons like Tambo, Mbeki etceteras, because there were places they certainly would visit before, during or after this parliament: like the HQ of the Socialist Democratic Party (a place that Palme visited also regularly), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the SIDA-building, places in the Centre of Stockholm not very far from each other. ...It is an area Craig CW knew very well as well.
- A week before Palme was killed, in the meeting where he was reading his prepared manuscript, "he gestured & put the manuscript down on the desk in front of him. He raised his head (left his prepared speech) & said: We are all responsible for apartheid. If the world wants apartheid to end, it could end to morrow by simply withdrawing support to the apartheidsregime.' At the time it was such a revolutionary statement, that it took everybody's breath away". It certainly angered as well the Swedish extreme right as the SAns.
- During this "Parliament"-period the local network & the hitsquad could have been activated against one or more of the representatives of the ANC, UDF or SWAPO (or even against Palme??). For some reason (tight security?) this plan is blown off.
- It might even that the local Swedish network than says, OK why don't you help us with something we want to be done. The whole operation was already mounted & they didn't succeed to do anything with Tambo & the others. Although the assassination of Palme is not in the prime interest of the SAn's, they give their support to the local Swedes.

Sydafrika (III)
Allegations from SA:
9. Eugene de Kock mentioned Craig CW in his mitigation plea at Pretoria Supreme Court, as the one who had masterminded the assassination of Olof Palme in 1986. De Kock believed that the Swede Bertil Wedin (56 y.old) living in Kyrenia North Cyprus, was the murderer (see above). De Kock said he learned of SA involvement in Palme's killing during a meeting "in 1992 or 1993" with Philip Powell, now an Inkatha Freedom Party (IPF) senator.
10. Former hitsquad leader Dirk Coetzee said Anthony White , also a founder member of Longreach was the killer of Palme. CW's military intelligence front Longreach was reporting to Brigadier "Tolletjie" Botha. Coetzee first learned of the Palme link through a former agent in the Longreach outfit, "Riaan" St&er, a low ranking former security policeman. St&er made also these revelations to a Swedish journalist in 1995. He says White was assisted in the assassination by British "spy" Mike Irwin (British marines in Northern Irel& & the Falkl&s war) who also worked for Longreach. Peter Casselton (now living in Pretoria & visiting his friend Eugene de Kock regularly) told the Swedish state television that White had nothing to do with the killing of Palme, & that the murderer was a European living in hiding somewhere in the Mediterranean. [SouthScan Vol.11 No.37, 4 October 1996].
Question: Why did Coetzee not come earlier with these declarations? He talked so much!
11. James Anthony White (50), former Selous Scout & once a ruthless killer for Ian Smith's Rhodesia. White was one of the main killers of the Nyadzonia ZANU-camp in Mozambique (August 1976), where 600-1000 people were killed. He made also two failed attempts to murder Zimbabwean liberation leader Joshua Nkomo in Lusaka, according to a book by his former Selous Scout comm&er, Ron Reid-Daly. The first involved parking a car packed with explosives on a route often taken by Nkomo; the second was an attack on Nkomo's house that destroyed the building & killed several people inside - but not Nkomo [M&G 1/10/96: White tried to kill Nkomo]. White moved to SA after Zimbabwe's independence in 1980.[SAPA, 30/9/96]. He is known as a "loner" mercenary with a history of "selling to the highest bidder".
White was a founder member of Longreach. He was involved in contrab& operations in the 1980's & a member of a poaching & ivory smuggling network which operated in Zimbabwe soon after the country's independence in 1980 [Sapa 30/9/96].
White was linked to both the SAn & the Mozambican security services. White is running a furniture factory (a sawmill) on the outskirts of Beira in Mozambique. He is manufacturing exclusive hardwood furniture & doors through a timber concession he obtained from the Mozambique government [Sapa 30/9/96] Mozambique's Frelimo government has sheltered White for years. White became close to Frelimo during the latter stages of the war against Renamo, when he protested loudly at attempts by Renamo to extort money from businesses working in hardwood forests under Renamo control [see Paul Fauvet, Maputo 1/10/96]
- White denied any involvement in the assassination of Olof Palme.
Motives:
1. ?? SA ( a hypothesis): Swedes stood for more than 50% of the ANC's civilian budget in the 80's. Sweden was one of the countries that was pushing sanctions hardest & the first to carry them out ( after 1985 -when it really started). But assassinating one person doesn't make much sense. The government (neither the conservative one) didn't change its policies towards SA.
2. ?? Swedish extreme right-wing groups (a hypothesis): They hated Palme. But to the extend that they wanted to kill him? Might be a possibility. It is very difficult to get information about these circles. But ... there is something that starts in Katanga & there are links to mercs in SA (see Lasse Berg's documentary film: "Lieutenant Erik"). It leads to Rhodesia, to the Seychelles-coup , to the World Anti Communist League & to UNITA & through that to Angola & Executive Outcomes.

*1 According to Searchlight [Nov.1996:6] Arthur Kemp was a prime suspect in the murder of Chris Hani in 1993.
*2 According to Hasselbohm the IUEF was the architect behind a meeting between the ANC & the Black Consciousness Movement (BCM), & a few other organisations. In order to hide the real purpose of Steve Biko's trip to England (planned for the autumn of 1977), IUEF had arranged for Biko to give a number of speeches. As IUEF's Deputy Directer, Craig CW knew that Steve Biko was to meet the ANC. Because CW's detailed information on the London meeting, it became possible for the regime to derail the talks in London. Only weeks before the meeting, Steve Biko was arrested at a road-block & tortured to death.
*3 Reporters-investigators as Sven Aner, Olle Alsen & Hasselbohm they all believe that the murder is the work of a contract killer linked to the Swedish police (Aner); or to Gladio, the secret Nato "stay behind" network to defend Europe in the event of a Soviet invasion (Alsen) or to the SAn secret police (Hasselbohm).
Hasselbohm mentioned the American hitman Michael Townley, who once worked for the Chilean secret service DINA, which had Olof Palme on his death list. According to Hasselbohm at the time there were close ties between the SAn & Chilean security services. & there were links running from Craig CW (via Italy) to Michael Townley.
...
- According to SAPA-AFP (16/2/97) new evidence pointed to Swedish killer in Palme murder. Chief public prosecuter Jan Danielsson rejected speculation about SAn involvement in the murder, saying this theory had merely served to distract the police from "a more promising lead". No SAn trail.
- According to "Intelligence Newsletter" the American journalist Allan Francovich died when passing through customs at Houston airport on April 18 1997. His death was officially attributed to a heart attack. Francovich, who lived in London, had been working for several months on the assassination of Olof Palme. During the stay in the US he planned to meet the person whom his sources had indicated was the killer. Francovich had the man's name, address & picture. He had become a profession killler after he joined Savak, the former Iranian secret service, where he had been traineed by the CIA. Francovich was about to reveal that the operation to murder Palme was mounted during a series of meetings staged late 1985 by an ultra secret organization within NATO."
- According to ... The Maputo police arrested in 1997 (July), the SA buisnessman Richard Fair in connection with espionage & possession of illegal firearms. Fair co-owns a boat transport business with Swedish national Nigel Barnett. Flair admitted in a Swedish television interview, that he once flew into Mozambique with Barnett, Anthony White & & Peter Casselton as the pilot. All three were names last year by Eugene de Kock & Dirk Coetzee as being involved with "superspy" Craig CW in the assassination of Prime Minister Olaf Palme. Casselton died in February 1997....
