A man called ‘Mervyn Hagger’ does a voice-over for the video, referring to “dark clouds over Dallas in 1963” and, in the same sentence, about the establishment of Radio Caroline in 1964. He suggests that the “connecting dots go via the ship the Mi Amigo”.

He then goes on to suggest that the ship had previously been involved transmitting for Radio Free Europe (a CIA ‘front’) to the Baltic States. Its exact ownership is a mystery, but Robert F. Kennedy’s name gets a late mention just to make the video end on a high-point (this is Part 1 of a two-part video). Is someone having a laugh?

Bazz, I made the video for people too bored to read academic articles ( founthreads.com ), and I have been writing about this subject since 1966 for newspapers. I suggest you watch the video again because NOWHERE does it link the Mia Amigo to Radio Free Europe. In fact Allan Crawford does most of the voice over to destroy the O'Rahilly myths. As for Robert F. Kennedy, he is the person who caused the Mi Amigo to be taken to Galveston, Texas. I suggest you watch the video again and then ask questions and I will be only too happy to cite chapter and verse where you can find documentation for yourself.
