8. this about Gordon Thomas
http://www.americanfreepress.net/06_29_03/Thomas/thomas.html


A commentator for TV-3 in Ireland and the United Kingdom, Thomas’s newspaper columns are featured regularly in major independent and syndicated newspapers throughout Europe. Over the years Thomas has won two Mark Twain Society Awards for Reporting Excellence.

His non-fiction writings range from the history of intelligence to religion and health. He has also written numerous novels, several of which are now being adapted for a television broadcast series in Britain.

Seven of his books have been made into major motion pictures, including Voyage of the Damned (nominated for five Academy Awards) and Enola Gay, which won the Emmy Awards Foreign Critics Prize. He won the Juries and Critics Prize at the Monte Carlo Film Festival. Thomas also won the Edgar Allen Poe Award for Ship wreck, co-written with his frequent collaborator, Max Morgan Witts.

Through his father-in-law, who was a professional intelligence officer who worked for Britain’s MI5, Thomas had entrée to many in the global intelligence community. And because of his worldwide reputation, leaders of Israel’s Mossad agreed to cooperate with Thomas in his ground-breaking study of the Mossad, Gideon’s Spies.

Many supporters of Israel attacked Thomas for even having dared write the revealing book, despite the fact that the Mossad cooperated with Thomas in the book’s production.

Thomas and his wife, an interior designer, have four grown children who work in various sections of the entertainment industry. His web site can be found at: gordonthomas.ie.

....and then I read the site's "about us" feature and it definitely sounds as though I do not share their opinion on issues at all.

Seems this was an embarrassing lesson for me.
