Introduction According to the back cover blurb of my latest book: ‘David Southwell is the author of a number of best-selling books on conspiracy theories and the nature of organized crime in the twenty-first century. A former journalist and newspaper editor, he has spent 15 years researching parapolitics and the international criminal underworld. David Southwell is a regular broadcaster in the UK, USA and Europe. His work as a political insider brought him into regular contact with the security services, Scotland Yard and international police agencies, providing him with additional insight into the hidden realities of the world most of us never see. With two serious death threats from criminal gangs and a threat to remove his hands from the Wo Shing Wo Triad received during the writing of this book, he is seriously considering disappearing off the map, buying a small place in Newfoundland and retiring to write comic books and his movie script about the life of Bill Hicks.’
