6/16/2007  Air India Was a CSIS job: Canadian Intelligence Service implicated in Air India bombing
On June 23, 1985, a bomb planted aboard Air India Flight 182 exploded as it made its way from Toronto to London Heathrow, killing all 329 aboard. The bombing still stands as Canada’s deadliest instance of mass murder, and was the deadliest act of terrorism involving airplanes before the events of September 11, 2001. In 2005, some two decades after the original disaster, the only two suspects to be put on trial for the bombing were acquitted due to a lack of evidence. The verdict created an uproar in Canada, and the government duly set up an inquiry, headed by John Major, which is currently looking into the disaster and its investigation. But witnesses testifying before the commission over the last weeks out of the Canadian inquiry into the Air India Flight 182 disaster have started painting a picture of government foreknowledge which is confirming suspicions that the Canadian CIA -- the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) -- were complicit in the bombing and its coverup. On May 17, two former government lawyers, Graham Pinos and Michael Anne MacDonald, testified to the inquiry that they were attending international hearings on terrorism in Los Angeles during the week preceding the bombing. Each of them claims to have had separate conversations with a Mr. Mel Deschesnes of CSIS in which he stated there was a problem with Sikh extremists in Vancouver who were seeking to bring down an airplane. He left the conference unexpectedly on June 20, telling Ms. MacDonald that there was an urgent problem with the extremists in Vancouver. The bombing took place three days later. Mr. Pinos testified that when the bombing took place, his reaction was to say to himself “Holy expletive, they knew, they knew.” Streaming video of their testimony can be watched here.

4/30/2007  In Depth: Air India; Evidence
Part 1: Plotted in plain sight? - In 1987, Canada's solicitor-general James Kelleher declared: "I should point out to the House that there was no indication that there was a specific threat to Flight 182." Sixteen years later, then federal solicitor-general Wayne Easter repeated the assertion: "They were not in a position to know that there would be a terrorist attack on an Air India aircraft." Were they right? Was there really no warning — or was the Air India bombing plotted in plain sight? In 1982, Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi complained to prime minister Pierre Trudeau that Sikh extremists in Canada were financing and organizing terrorist attacks against Indian targets. Three years later, on June 22, 1985, two bombs placed by Sikh militants in Vancouver killed 331 people. Air India Flight 182 blew up as it approached the coast of Ireland, killing 329 people. Two baggage handlers died earlier during a blast at a Tokyo airport. Ever since, successive Canadian governments have insisted that Canada's security agencies could not have prevented the bombing because there was no warning. (CBC)
