"The insurance industry uses scientific tables to accurately
predict death rates. Based on the 1997 CSO Mortality Tables,
the odds that all of these men could
collectively die during a 30 month period is a staggering 14,000,000,000:1
This makes it logically impossible for
any reasonable person to deny that the world's leading microbiology
researchers are being murdered, beginning with the anthrax
attacks thru last month.
The question is why are they being killed, and by whom?"

Marconi Scientists Mystery
In the 1980's over two dozen science graduates and experts working
for Marconi or Plessey Defence Systems died in mysterious circumstances,
most appearing to be suicides., The MOD denied these scientists
had been involved in classified Star Wars Projects and that the
deaths were in any way connected. Judge for yourself...
March 1982: Professor Keith Bowden, 46
-- Expertise: Computer programmer and scientist at Essex University
engaged in work for Marconi, who was hailed as an expert on super
computers and computer-controlled aircraft.
--Circumstance of Death: Fatal car crash when his vehicle went
out of control across a dual carriageway and plunged onto a disused
railway line. Police maintained he had been drinking but family
and friends all denied the allegation.
--Coroner's verdict: Accident.
April 1983: Lt-Colonel Anthony Godley, 49
-- Expertise: Head of the Work Study Unit at the Royal College
of Military Science.
--Circumstance of Death: Disappeared mysteriously in April 1983
without explanation. Presumed dead.
March 1985: Roger Hill, 49
-- Expertise: Radar designer and draughtsman with Marconi.
--Circumstance of Death: Died by a shotgun blast at home.
--Coroner's verdict: Suicide.
November 19, 1985: Jonathan Wash, 29
--Expertise: Digital communications expert who had worked at
GEC and at British Telecom's secret research centre at Martlesham
Heath, Suffolk.
--Circumstance of Death: Died as a result of falling from a
hotel room in Abidjan, West Africa, while working for British
Telecom. He had expressed fears that his life was in danger.
--Coroner's verdict: Open.
August 4, 1986: Vimal Dajibhai, 24
--Expertise: Computer software engineer with Marconi, responsible
for testing computer control systems of Tigerfish and Stingray
torpedoes at Marconi Underwater Systems at Croxley Green, Hertfordshire.
--Circumstance of Death: Death by 74m (240ft.) fall from Clifton
Suspension Bridge, Bristol. Police report on the body mentioned
a needle-sized puncture wound on the left buttock, but this was
later dismissed as being a result of the fall. Dajibhai had been
looking forward to starting a new job in the City of London and
friends had confirmed that there was no reason for him to commit
suicide. At the time of his death he was in the last week of his
work with Marconi.
--Coroner's verdict: Open.
October 1986: Arshad Sharif, 26
--Expertise: Reported to have been working on systems for the
detection of submarines by satellite.
--Circumstance of Death: Died as a result of placing a ligature
around his neck, tying the other end to a tree and then driving
off in his car with the accelerator pedal jammed down. His unusual
death was complicated by several issues: Sharif lived near Vimal
Dajibhai in Stanmore, Middlesex, he committed suicide in Bristol
and, inexplicably, had spent the last night of his life in a rooming
house. He had paid for his accommodation in cash and was seen
to have a bundle of high-denomination banknotes in his possession.
While the police were told of the banknotes, no mention was made
of them at the inquest and they were never found. In addition,
most of the other guests at the rooming house worked at British
Aerospace prior to working for Marconi, Sharif had also worked
at British Aerospace on guided weapons technology.
--Coroner's verdict: Suicide.
January 1987: Richard Pugh, 37

expert.

feet bound and a plastic bag over his head. Rope was tied around
his body, coiling four times around his neck.

January 12, 1987: Dr. John Brittan, 52
--Expertise: Scientist formerly engaged in top secret work at
the Royal College of Military Science at Shrivenham, Oxfordshire,

He had been working on testing titanium for it's resistance to
explosives and the use of computer analysis of signals from metals.
--Circumstance of Death: Found dead allegedly from carbon monoxide
poisoning, in his Oxfordshire garage. The circumstances of his
death raised some elements of doubt. His wife had found him on
his back with his head parallel to the rear car bumper and his
mouth in line with the exhaust pipe, with the car engine running.
Police were apparently baffled as to how he could have manoeuvred
into the position in which he was found.
--Coroner's verdict: Open.
April 1987: George Kountis age unknown.
--Expertise: Systems Analyst at Bristol Polytechnic.
--Circumstance of Death: Drowned the same day as Shani Warren
(see below) - as the result of a car accident, his upturned car
being found in the River Mersey, Liverpool.

a fresh inquest as she thought 'things didn't add up.')
April 10, 1987: Shani Warren, 26
--Expertise: Personal assistant in a company called Micro Scope,
which was taken over by GEC Marconi less than four weeks after
her death.
--Circumstance of Death: Found drowned in 45cm. (18in) of water,
not far from the site of David Greenhalgh's death fall. Warren
died exactly one week after the death of Stuart Gooding and serious
injury to Greenhalgh. She was found gagged with a noose around
her neck. Her feet were also bound and her hands tied behind her
back.
--Coroner's verdict: Open. (It was said that Warren had gagged
herself, tied her feet with rope, then tied her hands behind her
back and hobbled to the lake on stiletto heels to drown herself.)
April 10, 1987: Stuart Gooding, 23
--Expertise: Postgraduate research student at the Royal College
of Military Science.
--Circumstance of Death: Fatal car crash while on holiday in

crashing at high speed into a disused cafeteria. He was found
still wearing his seat belt and it was discovered that the car
had been carrying additional petrol cans. None of the normal,
reasons for a possible suicide could be found.

--Expertise: Computer engineer with Marconi Space and Defence
Systems in Stanmore, Middlesex.
--Circumstance of Death: Found dead at his home in Harpenden,
Hertfordshire at the wheel of his car with a hosepipe connected
to the exhaust. A St. Alban's coroner said that Knight's woman
friend, Miss Narmada Thanki (who also worked with him at Marconi)
had found three suicide notes left by him which made clear his
intentions. Miss Thanki had mentioned that Knight disliked his
work but she did not detect any depression that would have driven
him to suicide.

More than 310 Iraqi scientists are thought to have perished
at the hands of Israeli secret agents in Iraq since fall of Baghdad
to US troops in April 2003, a seminar has found.
The Iraqi ambassador in Cairo, Ahmad al-Iraqi, accused Israel
of sending to Iraq immediately after the US invasion 'a commando
unit' charged with the killing of Iraqi scientists.
"Israel has played a prominent role in liquidating Iraqi scientists.
The campaign is part of a Zionist plan to kill Arab and Muslim
scientists working in applied research which Israel sees as threatening
its interests," al-Iraqi said.
