You may ask, why do I think the "they" referred to are the. security
services? Is there any evidence that. there is a single source, as opposed
to a loosely based "whispering campaign" amongst many. people? Even if there
is a single source, is there any evidence that. "they" are professional "buggers" as opposed to amateurs, or perhaps people working. for a privately funded. organization?

a) As to the question of a single source versus something. more fragmented;
it is quite obvious that there is a single source from the. way the campaign has been carried out. Since things have. been repeated verbatim which were
said in my home, there. must be one group which does the watching and listening. Since on several occasions (mainly during travel) people. have
been planted in close proximity and rehearsed in what they were. to say, it follows that someone must have done the planning for. that, and again a
single source is. indicated.

b) So why. couldn't it be amateurs? Why couldn't it be a private
organisation, for example a. private detective agency paid to manage the campaign and undertake the technical aspects? Some detective agencies. are unscrupulous as has been proved on. the occasions in the past when they've
been exposed or caught; they too can have access to the. bugging technology deployed; and there are reported cases of MI5 paying private eyes to. do
their dirty work (against peace campaigners and similar enemies. of the
state) on. the understanding that if they were caught then they could deny
all knowledge. Why couldn't that be the. case?

The main. factor pointing to direct security service involvement (as opposed
to amateurs or MI5 proxies) is the breadth of their access. to the media in particular, and the fact that. the television companies are so involved in
the campaign. The BBC would not directly. invade someone's home themselves, since it would not. be within their remit to allocate personnel or financial resources to do so. An organisation of their stature would. not take part in
a campaign. set up by private sources. The only people they would take
material from would be the security services, presumably on. the assumption that if the cat ever flew out of. the bag yowling it would be MI5 who would take. the consequences.

State sponsorship for these acts. of psychological terrorism is also
indicated by duration; support for over six years for a. team of three or
four people would be beyond the means and. will of most private sources.
The viciousness of the slanders. and personal denigration also points to
MI5; they traditionally "protect" the British. state from politicians of the wrong hue. by character assassination, and in this case are using their
tried and tested methods to murder with words. an enemy they have invented
for. themselves.

And there are precedents. Diana and Hewitt were alleged to. have been filmed "at. it" by an Army intelligence team which had operated in Northern
Ireland, these. allegations were made by someone called Jones who had been
on the team. His statements were denied by the defence establishment. who
tried to character-assassinate by describing him as the "Jones. twins".
Funny how if you tell. the truth, then you must be ill, isn't it? Thought
only communists behaved like. that?

Hewitt later. said that he'd been spoken to by someone in the army who
revealed the existence of videotapes of him and Diana, and. that the tapes would be published if any attempt was made by them to. resume their association.
