An Inconvenient Death [electronic resource] : How the Establishment Covered up the David Kelly Affair

Goslett, Miles2018
eBook
This scrupulous scientist, an expert on weapons of mass destruction, was caught up in the rush to war in Iraq and by pressure of those around Tony Blair to provide evidence that Saddam Hussein was producing chemical weapons. Kelly seemed to have tipped into sudden depression when he was outed as a source by Andrew Gilligan and found himself in the harsh spotlight of political and media attention. But the circumstances of his death are replete with disquieting questions – every detail, from his motives to the method of his death, his body's discovery and the way in which the state investigated his demise, seems on close examination not to make sense. In this painstaking and levelheaded investigative book about Kelly's death, Miles Goslett shows why we should be deeply sceptical of the official narrative and examines the uses of intelligence and the desperate measures adopted in those feverish summer months of 2003.
