The official reasoning behind his "suicide" always seemed strange to me considering how he was just recently stepping back into the spotlight with his appearance in Oliver Stone's Born on the 4th of July after years of being underground. I am very curious to read your book on this subject matter. Thanks again and I hope you are living peacefully in New Zealand.Robert Paulsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15208594652127037486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5135408331348381055.post-85480327736296604322010-10-15T18:44:25.035-07:002010-10-15T18:44:25.035-07:00It's important not to leave out Abbie Hoffman ...It's important not to leave out Abbie Hoffman (made famous by the Chicago 7 conspiracy trial related to 1968 Democratic Convention). Hoffman was an important martyr of the October Surprise conspiracy. In fact he was the first to go mainstream about October Surprise with his 1988 Playboy article. He had his brake lines cut while delivering the article and was involved in a serious car accident. Only to mysteriously commit suicide a few months later. I write about all this - as well as my on close encounter with US intelligence thugs - in my recent memoir THE MOST REVOLUTIONARY ACT: MEMOIR OF AN AMERICAN REFUGEE (www.stuartbramhall.com). I currently live in exile in New Zealand.stuartbramhallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07416342540260631414noreply@blogger.com
