Talk:Frank Kitson

Untitled
I’ve detagged the article (cleanup/wikify) with a short rewrite. I've included one sensible ref for pre-Kitson "pseudo gangs" because some of the Internet sources about Kitson are so confused and inaccurate. For example Truth Seeker, requoted many times elsewhere says wrongly:
 * "It was a British officer, General Frank Kitson, who first thought up the concept that was later used in the formation of Al Qaeda. He called it the ‘pseudo gang’ – a state sponsored group used to advance an agenda, while discrediting the real opposition. The strategy was used in both Kenya and Northern Ireland. In the case of Northern Ireland, most of the violence that was attributed to ‘Loyalists’ was in actuality not their handiwork, but the result of the activities of the death squads affiliated to the British secret state."

But more could probably be said about the influence of what Kitson really wrote on low intensity operations.--Mereda 08:16, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
