I have been inundated with request for the book, TRAIL OF THE OCTOPUS, I wrote with Donald Goddard in 1993. The book is a detailed account of what was behind the bombing of Pan Am 103 that was downed by a terrorist bomb over Lockerbie, Scotland in 1988. Two Libyans are awaiting a verdict before a Scot Court sitting in Holland.

The reason for the renewed interest in Trail of the Octopus is that the evidence linking the two Libyans to the attack has been reduced to mush. The account Goddard and I detailed is now proving to be correct, that is, it was a Syrian based terrorist cell that blew up the aircraft and infiltrated a US Drug sting pipeline to do it.

Of course Goddard and I are extremely pleased after almost a decade to be back in the good graces of truth. As most of you know, I spent more than half of the years since my voluntary return to the US in 1996 in Prison.

I was labeled a liar and a con-man by the US government and their Pet journalists, namely Steven Emerson and Christopher Byron. Both have long since vanished into obscurity

TRAIL OF THE OCTOPUS is hard to find. A couple of copies have turned up in an antique shop in Princeton, NJ selling for $250 a copy.

WE WANT TO MAKE THE BOOK AVAILABLE TO EVERYONE.

Therefore we are looking into a cyber-version, downloadable off the net.

We would like to hear from my readers about this proposal.
