COVER DESIGN & EDITING

Cover design by Rebecca, the ONE, thank you.

All GMJ Book covers have messages in them relating to something or some incident in the book. Where the cover has a black motive, or anything black on it, that is meant to signify death. That is a code to honour those that died for their country, as well as in honour of my wife, she too went home to our Lord before her time. GMJ

Editing by Alec Chapman nabolcat@gmail.com, thank you.

FOREWORD

I'm a Vietnam Vet and reader of many of the GMJ novels as well as this intelligence briefing. I find this writer's work to always be a cogent presentation of current and past events that the main stream media refuses to tell us. He does exhaustive research and while I consider myself to be well-versed in history and political events, George M James continually and boldly brings new information to light for me. Instead of those often-inane talking heads invited on television news programs, I would like to see this man invited as the guest expert for information and commentary. I wish him great success with his books.

January 2019

US defense capabilities are and will remain second to none, and now because of the new defense budget of $700 billion our military will be far stronger than ever. White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders, 2 March 2018

America has the best equipment anywhere in the world. Donald J Trump on 13 August 2018

Chinese President Xi Jinping is also expected to make a pledge to change Beijing’s economic, military, and political behaviour during his meeting with US President Donald Trump on the side-lines of the G20 summit in Buenos Aires on November 30. If Washington is not satisfied, there will be ‘an all-out Cold War.’ The US had no intention of ceding influence in Asia to China and will not back down if Beijing choses to continue its current policies. Then so be it. We are here to stay. Mike Pence, Vice President of the US, 13 November 2018

The Reality: I’ll never forgive Barack Obama for what he did to our United States military by not funding it properly. It was depleted. It was old and tired, and I came in and I had to fix it, and I’m in the process of spending tremendous amounts of money, so I’ll never forgive him for what he did to our military. What he did made this country very unsafe... Donald J Trump on 9 November 2018

The United States has lost its military advantage to such a degree that it could potentially lose a future war with Russia or China. The US military could suffer unacceptably high casualties and loss of major capital assets in its next conflict. It might struggle to win, or perhaps lose, a war against China or Russia... National Defence Strategy Commission to the US Congress, 14 November 2018

Your bluster is already called... In the West you have the notion that if somebody hits you on the left cheek, you turn the other cheek. In our culture we punch back... Chinese president Xi Jinping, he was talking on Donald J Trump’s trade war with the world but he meant more than that. Later, on 29 October 2018, to his top military commanders... Prepare for war. Do you know what Field Marshal Montgomery, 1st Viscount Montgomery of Alamein said? "Rule 1, on page 1 of the book of war, is: ‘Do not march on Moscow’. Various people have tried it, Napoleon and Hitler, and it is no good. That is the first rule. I do not know whether your Lordships will know Rule 2 of war. It is: ‘Do not go fighting with your land armies in China.’ It is a vast country, with no clearly defined objectives.’

Sub-Sahara Africa - the new counter-terrorism battlefield: We are decimating ISIS in the Middle East. What’s happening is, they’ll go to parts of Africa, they’ll go to other places. When they get there, we meet them. It’s a dangerous business. It’s a tough war. We’re beating ISIS very badly. Donald J Trump, 45th US President, October 2017

Exactly what I was warning about since 2014 when the first book, Code Name VFO565, was published. The radicals are moving into Africa. The Israelis with Mossad are the kings in the Middle East, chasing them away. The South Africans with the South African Secret Service control sub-Saharan Africa. Within the above two spheres, you will find 80% of the radicals, the rest are hiding in Pakistan and Afghanistan. Wherever the War on Terror is being won, as Mr Trump noted, the threat moves away and mostly into Africa, the new battleground. But don’t think for one moment that the fighting will be easy. Africa is like no other theatre in the world, nothing like what you have seen before. Regarding the QME, ‘Qualitative Military Edge Doctrine,’ it is a known myth and nothing more. As I write these books I wonder where the West is not lacking and yet, the idiotic bubble of exceptionalism continues unabatedly in the White House and everywhere else. It is not based on reality, my research shows you lacking in almost every important area from SRAAM, anti-tank missiles, artillery, armour, drones, AI, and electronic warfare. Bluntly stated, I don’t see either the US or NATO winning a conventional war against Russia or China anytime soon unless major changes are made which is not throwing money at the Merchants of Death but demanding a positive return on investment. If a conventional war breaks out, I see you getting humiliated in the future. We can only hope I am wrong, in fact, I pray that I am wrong but I am not. What is even worse is that the Chinese are relentlessly making the strategic moves and today the USA is cut off already and yet this is not seen by those blinded by their arrogance. I reveal the above and much more in my books, especially ‘American Military Might – Debunked’ must be read with the much shorter Intelligence Briefing, it is important. And if you wish to know why the mightiest Protestant country ever, is abused, read Code Name Rebecca 65 where it is explained. This is not by chance. GMJ

Special Forces Selection starts with God and ends with God’s mercy in your favour. Have no doubt, without faith you will get nowhere. When a man is dying in combat, he cries for his mom or God, between the two, only God is always close by and able to help. Believe me, gentlemen, you will often cry for both of the above beings before we are done with you today. This program is not for everyone, 95% of you will not make it. Accept that and do your best, show me that you are worthy of Special Forces. Captain Geelslang Peter Ndebele at the first day of Selection to new recruits, his predictions were never wrong.

When you hear a story, you remember, when you see the PowerPoint slides so beloved by Western Militaries, you forget within minutes and fall asleep. We don’t do boring and we count success by results, not money wasted or tons of bombs dropped, we want to win at any cost payable by the enemy. Major Geoffrey Foxtrot on more than one occasion.

Price is what you pay. Value is what you gain in knowledge. Major General Angelique Dawson-Foxtrot to GMJ years ago.

She was spot on, as always. No one reads a GMJ Book without learning something or so I am told... but I paid dearly for the knowledge. When I walked out of operations, they asked me what will you do? I said I wanted to be normal. They said it is impossible, that I am not normal, I was chosen, born to be special, for the Great Game. No one walks out of operations. I said I wanted to be normal. And an older colleague stopped me, he shook hands, said, if you want to be normal, find love, find a good woman that will love you no matter what. You will slowly become what is in your DNA and not your training. I asked him, if you know this, why didn’t you walk away years before? He said he could not find a woman to love him that much. He died a few weeks later in an operation in Burkina Faso. GMJ to Rebecca, the One, August 2018.

About the Author

Connect with Author online

"Let me tell you about the Afrikaners, Professor. I had the bad luck to have met a few through the years. They have not changed much since Kipling wrote his book. Let me quote for you since I was reading it just the other day: 'Take a community of Dutchmen of the type of those who defended themselves for fifty years against all the power of Spain at a time when Spain was the greatest power in the world. Intermix with them a strain of those inflexible French Huguenots who gave up home and fortune and left their country for ever at the time of the revocation of the Edict of Nantes. The product must obviously be one of the most rugged, virile, unconquerable races ever seen upon earth. Take this formidable people and train them for seven generations in constant warfare against savage men and ferocious beasts, in circumstances under which no weakling could survive, place them so that they acquire exceptional skill with weapons and in horsemanship, give them a country which is eminently suited to the tactics of the huntsman, the marksman, and the rider. Then, finally, put a finer temper upon their military qualities by a dour fatalistic Old Testament religion and an ardent and consuming patriotism. Combine all these qualities and all these impulses in one individual, and you have the modern Boer—the most formidable antagonist who ever crossed the path of Imperial Britain. Our military history has largely consisted in our conflicts with France, but Napoleon and all his veterans have never treated us so roughly as these hard-bitten farmers with their ancient theology and their inconveniently modern rifles.’"

In fact, it was Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, of Sherlock Holmes fame, who wrote the above in his book The Great Boer War back in 1902 and to explain how a supposedly backward nation could keep the entire British Empire busy for three years and cause twenty times more casualties than what they ever suffered in a colonial war. Since then the Afrikaner fought the Germans, Italians, Japanese and his own insurgency without losing a fight. They were never defeated in battle in modern times.... (Taken from Code Name VFO565)

Author’s Note

It seems from the feedback I received that the GMJ Books are read by two classes of readers. One wants a good espionage / Special Forces story for personal enjoyment and not much more than that. The other wants much more, military history and expert analysis and current affairs to learn more about a world that few have real knowledge on besides the story. For myself, I see the books as educational, written for legal reasons as fictional accounts. I am proud of the often-stated comment that no one reads a GMJ without learning something. That includes your author, by the way, I too learn from all the research and I am having fun writing the series. Therefore, I had to look at the intelligence briefing and see what I can do to satisfy both camps since both are correct and highly valued by me. Up until January 2019, I attached the often-mentioned Intelligence Briefing to every GMJ book at the request of many readers. It was a good idea. However, the briefing grew relentlessly in length to keep up with the latest Washington / London irrationalities / shenanigans designed to keep the US at perpetual war. The extra length added to the printing costs. It had to be updated once a month and all of the books reloaded on various websites. This placed an enormous burden on me, days of doing nothing else. The only logical solution was to create a separate book for the intelligence briefing combined with some of the expert political / military analysis to be found in the GMJ Series, i.e. on the MI6 / Ukrainian Skripal false flag operation, Jamal Khashoggi murder, the Niger Ambush and much more of interest to GMJ readers. And so, I created a lengthy book on its own, this book. Since the intelligence contained is of a strategic nature and deliberately not tactical, it will be relevant in the foreseeable future. The warnings contained in this briefing are frightening for the US and NATO, logically set out, proven and, sadly, not fiction. The GMJ Intelligence Briefing is best when read together with the two other non-fiction books: American Military Might – Debunked as well as VOICES – War Crimes USA.

There are no large / well-funded corporations behind the GMJ Series to impeach freedom of thought, expression and views. If there were, the main characters would be American and probably former US Navy SEALs etc. The views expressed would have been useless to you if looking for the truth. It would have been the usual Washington Swamp parroting that I despise as being part of a Hegelian Dialectic being played on you – see Code Name GSSP-40 and Code Name Mélisse where I explain in detail what that is. There would have been a lot of sex (preferably gay) in the books and God written out completely. My answer to such ideas is very simple, Over my dead body. Like hell I will change my books to become part of the mainstream crap. The GMJ novels are for history lovers, those that desire knowledge and do not get their news from social media accounts. The books are like no other, end of story, and that is how it should be.

This type of book is needed. Not all is revealed by the mainstream media outlets for reasons discussed inside the briefing following the author note. Or when it is revealed it is used as a cover for something else and soon forgotten. Be sure that no GMJ Book is just written. The topic is carefully chosen to enlighten the reader to current dangers / events. In this book, we look at several subjects I wanted to highlight for you as I was shocked to read the other day that some of the most popular South African authors say that they have no messages to the readers in their books, they write for entertainment only. I am not like that and I am most certainly not part of the South African author scene and with no desire ever to be. To be honest, I find books without messages shallow and without purpose, written for sheep by sheep, an insult to readers. Because I started off as a non-fiction writer, I am different in writing style, I always have messages in my books and that is by design and not by chance. I want the knowledge inside my books distributed. I want people to think about what they just read and the books to be of practical value besides being good entertainment. Curiously, many times after a GMJ Book is published, that what is revealed is published in the media or hastily denied.

I am further told by many readers that the non-US based weapon systems I describe in my books are not readily known to them. That is understandable, most people will only know their own country’s weapons. Thus, I added a page on my website (http://www.georgemjames.com/weapon-systems.html) to show you pictures of what I write about in the GMJ Books. Please hover your mouse over the picture, it will tell you what the picture represents and in which book, unless in many books, then only the name of the weapon system or place or person. Sometimes I forget that what is well known here may not be so well known there - I hope that you enjoy the page. Yet, that was not enough, the messages did not get through, and so, I wrote a lengthy book to debunk the American (NATO also) military myth called QME or the Qualitative Military Edge Doctrine. The QME is something that every US General, Admiral, Congressman, Senator, President and Citizen holds as the holy grail of American Military Power and has been doing so for many years (also included here is NATO, Western Militaries, note, I don’t mean the US alone, this is the last time I am saying so - the name is used because the US Military is NATO, not the other way around). It comes down to stating in simplified terms that the US Military has better technology and better training and because of this, they will have the edge against any numerically superior enemy, i.e. Russia, China, whoever, if a shooting war should break out. That is the myth and it is heard constantly in the mainstream media and everywhere else, seen as fact as much as the sun will rise in the east tomorrow. It is taken for granted that in any future military confrontation, the QME will ensure victory for the US and NATO. It is further believed that wild out of control spending is necessary: US defense capabilities are and will remain second to none, and now because of the new defense budget of $700 billion our military will be far stronger than ever. White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders, 2 March 2018. Yep, rubbish in history, rubbish in real life, rubbish in general. The world outside the US smirked derisively, they know better. Patriotism and patriotic dismissals of bad news are dangerous when not based on facts. In American Military Might – Debunked, I destroy the QME and show you how ridiculous it is to put your hopes on spending without positive returns, what are you getting for your money? You will see in that book and others how poorer countries are building better weapons for much less costs and you will wonder how on earth that is even possible. Facts do not care whether you prefer Made in America products or not, the question is: What is the best right now? This is not a subjective opinion but objective, we look at facts and facts only. Bluntly put, if your aviators or pilots ever face the South African Denel V3E Agile Darter SRAAM in combat (see Code Name Blue Tang), they are dead. If they are in tanks and the Makopa anti-tank missile is launched at them (see Code Name Alphabet 32), they are dead. Yes, an African country with better military technology in crucial areas than the mighty US of A and NATO combined, it is shocking, absurd and yet true. And none of these weapons is exported to anyone that is an ally of the USA. Think about that.

In South Africa, after the 1994 changes when Mr Mandela took over, as I explained so many times in my books, Israel and the West instantly lost access to the latest (note I said latest, not all) South African Military technology. As is also explained in my books, the South African Secret Service has access to China’s supercomputers to break ciphers and they do break them, I warned often enough on your ciphers being read by the enemy, see Code Name Odette, GMJ 8, and other books. Sub-Saharan Africa is the new battleground and yet the US is being replaced at a rate which is unbelievable. So far, my warning fell on deaf ears but we must persevere. As I write these books I wonder where the West is not lacking and yet, the idiotic bubble of exceptionalism continues unabatedly in the White House and everywhere else. It is not based on reality, my research shows you lacking in almost every important area from SRAAM, anti-tank missiles, artillery, armour, drones, AI, and electronic warfare. Bluntly stated, I don’t see either the US or NATO winning a conventional war against Russia or China anytime soon unless major changes are made which is not throwing money at the Merchants of Death but demanding a positive return on investment. If a conventional war breaks out, I see you getting humiliated in the future. We can only hope I am wrong, in fact, I pray that I am wrong but I am not. What is even worse is that the Chinese are relentlessly making the strategic moves and today the USA is cut off already and yet this is not seen by those blinded by their arrogance.

You will also read political studies in the Intelligence Briefing not to be found in mainstream Western media. That too, I am told, is shocking to many readers. America is detested intensely by many and hated by most, seen as a rogue state that needs to be destroyed for the better of mankind. And this you can blame squarely on the Washington Swamp, your political class. They caused and own this miserable state of affairs but you will pay the price, not them, they are well protected. If ever the QME is needed it is right now, yes, the greatest irony of all time. (Note: In November 2018, my reservations and warnings, the GMJ research, got confirmed. I’ll never forgive Barack Obama for what he did to our United States military by not funding it properly. It was depleted. It was old and tired, and I came in and I had to fix it, and I’m in the process of spending tremendous amounts of money, so I’ll never forgive him for what he did to our military. What he did made this country very unsafe... Donald J Trump on 9 November 2018. The United States has lost its military advantage to such a degree that it could potentially lose a future war with Russia or China. The US military could suffer unacceptably high casualties and loss of major capital assets in its next conflict. It might struggle to win, or perhaps lose, a war against China or Russia... National Defence Strategy Commission to the US Congress, 14 November 2018. What you do about this remains to be seen. I take no joy from being vindicated, be that known.)

I included a few analyses as set out in some of the books relating to interesting matters like Perception in War, The Roosevelt-Dreadnought Doctrine, Failure in Afghanistan and the Niger Ambush, Skripal Poisoning, Jamal Khashoggi Murder (in no other book but this one) and the Cornwallis Confession / Compromise of Avranches. There are many more such analyses in the GMJ Books, especially American Military Might – Debunked but again, I cannot know if you read that book or the rest and thus included the analysis here. Certainly, unless an older version, no GMJ Book will have the updated / latest intelligence briefing inside it. That is only to be found here in this manuscript for the reason given.

I am at times accused by Deep State and their paid lackeys that I use Russian / Chinese intelligence in my books where I expose US and NATO weaknesses and or war crimes. The historian / author / analyst, be it known, cross-checks whatever comes across his path or the information has no value. He frequently finds the evidence / information that he needs for his books / exposés in enemy archives because he is not allowed by self-protecting laws to access the information in his own country. Or, and this is happening all the time, that what mainstream is publishing is deceitful and half-truths. Let me give you an example taken from a BBC article regarding Donald J Trump’s movements on 11 November 2018, And he skipped an outing to a French cemetery that was filled with graves of US soldiers who had served in World War I. What the journalist fails to add is that it was raining that day in Paris and also foggy. The Presidential helicopter could not fly in safety to the cemetery and the presidential convoy would have caused immense disruption to the Paris traffic. For these reasons, the president did not go to the cemetery, not because he was afraid of the rain or has disrespect for the fallen soldiers. Quite reasonable, I would say, but not a word is explained further, a half-truth is left hanging there. Such is the propaganda that you are exposed to which is nothing to the effect of doctored pictures. Who will not recall Time Magazine faking an illegal alien child being dominated by the well-known Scrooge Donald J Trump? There are countless such examples doing the rounds and always when illegal immigration is approved of by the elite. It is thought-provoking that Hilarious Clinton got by far most of her votes in rich / affluent districts, you know, those people that will never compete with an illegal immigrant for a job. In Code Name Swan 53 we look at where the militaries are recruiting, the poor- and working-class families. The mainstream liars also never tell you that the so-called refugees... read migrants, are 70% and more unaccompanied young males. All you see on the news is the women and children being tear gassed. When you see the shenanigans that the ruling class is up to, you fully understand their outright reluctance to be exposed. The Arch Liar, that is Winston S Churchill to you, not a man admired in my books for a great many good and accurate reasons, said that history will be kind to me because I intend writing it... And he did, and today you know what he wrote and precious little regarding his many faults. But is that accurate history or propaganda? In all conventional wars the ruling class ensures that the enemy archives are either destroyed or captured and locked away for 150 years. Anything and everything needed to be done to protect their unblemished reputation and interests will be done. But much has changed in the last decade with the internet becoming freely available. Research is now easier than ever and much more comfortable. Let it be known, I will look for whatever I need wherever it is to be found. I will quote from the BBC to Sputnik as long as the original article is based on something that I can trace to its source and not the opinion of the writer in which I am not interested in. Unlike the mainstream journalists, I do not use mysterious, anonymous and unverified sources close to matter or such crap. Whenever I read that, I dismiss it automatically as fake news with hostile intent to mislead and deceive. I also look carefully at the wording of official statements. Wherever I find is confident, are consistent, are intended, high probability, no other explanation and we believe I dismiss it outright as fake news no matter who says it or what Agency made the statement. See Code Name Moonlight and American Military Might – Debunked, where this is explained in detail. Sadly, these words too are simply ignored by the mainstream liars and they then make out as if the report / statement is gospel – see Code Name Swan 53 where their techniques are explained. My books are researchable and thus I am willing to invite you to check the facts for yourself. I know what you will find. It is insane to say that an author cannot look for information / evidence outside his own country or blame him when he does so. That would be a clampdown and suppression of free speech. Let me remind you of what German Pastor Martin Niemöller said after being released from a Nazi Concentration Camp: First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out – because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out – because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out – because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me – and there was no one left to speak for me. I hope you enjoy the GMJ Series. They are books worth reading if you like military history, romance, espionage and although the books have a strong South African flavour, the messages in them are directed towards the West. Keep in mind that the GMJ Books are written as a warning to those who may not understand what is happening in sub-Saharan Africa, the new battleground, as we speak. As such, the GMJ Series contain intelligence truths which some will dislike on principle, if so, I invite you to research my books. I believe the public should be informed. And that the warnings communicated in this book are of utmost importance.

Comment from a reader: I'm a Vietnam Vet and reader of many of the GMJ novels as well as this intelligence briefing. I find this writer's work to always be a cogent presentation of current and past events that the main stream media refuses to tell us. He does exhaustive research and while I consider myself to be well-versed in history and political events, George M James continually and boldly brings new information to light for me. Instead of those often-inane talking heads invited on television news programs, I would like to see this man invited as the guest expert for information and commentary. I wish him great success with his books. For myself, I see the books as educational, written for legal reasons as fictional accounts. I am proud of the often-stated comment that no one reads a GMJ without learning something. A book that will confirm what is whispered behind closed doors. This is book 47 in the popular GMJ Series.

As you may know, a surprising percentage of GMJ Books are suppressed, yes, they use that ugly word, suppressed by mainstream publishers, see my blog http://www.georgemjames.com/gmj-blog/put-god-first-and-see-what-happens-the-immediate-suppression-of-your-books for more details. This is not about royalties but freedom of speech. It is a very big deal when any book, conservative or liberal, is suppressed without legal justification. We added dozens of audio clips at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC89xiDq-jbHsIDVsgvUtfAQ and http://www.georgemjames.com/author--video.html where you can listen to GMJ talking about his books. I hope that you enjoy them. If you like the GMJ Books, please take the time to write a good review online, it is the only way to spread the word on the messages they contain. Again, thank you, my readers are important to me: http://www.georgemjames.com/gmj-blog/angeliques-song.

Thank you,

"But when he saw my military card, he became so very deferential to me and he even told me he gave me a store discount of $5 from my purchase. I thanked him and paid. Twice he touched me on the arm and said: ‘Thank you for your service!’ I have no idea what provoked his intense kindness (the ID card, my age, my empty eye socket?). I am not used to being treated so kindly by younger people. Today was truly the first time since Vietnam that anybody has done that to me." From a GMJ reader, 2016, San Francisco, CA

Sadly, a month later in 2017, this reader, a Vietnam Vet, a decorated former paratrooper and an honourable man, had his MAGA hat rudely taken from him by some yobos, robbed in fact. Welcome to the liberal world of free speech where it is today either the liberal-agree-with-me way or the radical way. My contempt for such liberals & snowflakes has no limits, GMJ

BRIEFING, GMJ NOVELS

A misconception to be rectified

I wish to point out that there is a misconception that the GMJ Books are about the much-maligned South African Secret Service. I get letters pointing out the many negative newspaper articles on the Service, mostly to do with political appointees and never the real members working in secret. Unlike most reading here, I worked with the Service for years (note, with, not as a member, I claim no such honour in any of the books). There is not a country in sub-Saharan Africa where they are not operating efficiently. Most would be very surprised at their capabilities which are world-class. They are also in no way disloyal to their own and rated highly by many in the Great Game. As an example of loyalty, during a 2016 scare, they removed some of their spies within hours out of their assigned countries, feeling that they may be betrayed and in danger. Those men and women were inside those countries for many years by then, operating without any diplomatic cover.

It will always be sad to me that when you read the comments from some white South Africans, not all, it is stressed, not all, that they are utterly negative in outlook. They shake their heads and mutter totally racist remarks on why the GMJ Books have no claim to reality since no black fellow can ever run an efficient spy agency, according to them. Everything in Apartheid was better, obviously, according to them. No matter what you say or what evidence you produce, prejudice will always rule in such people and we will never see eye to eye. They would do well not to read my books. Delete them or burn them, but don’t bother contacting me, I will almost certainly not respond to what authors call baiting. Ironically, I doubt if it matters much to the professional intelligence officers what people think of them. A good intelligence agency doesn’t mind being badmouthed as it makes their jobs so much easier when contemptuously dismissed as useless. Such readers don’t get that the GMJ Books have nothing to do with the South African Secret Service as such. I get the feeling that they are incapable of understanding where the fiction ends and where not and that dismays me, it is really not hard to figure out. Luckily, they are the 1% of the 1% and of no great importance. Nevertheless, the above needed to be said. One thing which I am not scared of is to make a stand based upon reasonable and accepted principles.

The characters in my books are fictionalised

The storylines also although some are based on actual operations. There is a large element of truth here. Spies (they dislike that word, they are intelligence officers – spies are the enemy), in my view, are boring people able to fit in with the sheep. By choice and by inclination they never want any glory and something like James Bond is very far removed from reality. He will not last ten minutes and is based on Hollywood wet dreams. In fact, spies or intelligence community employees are mostly office workers, they take tea with sources, write a report, feed it into the system and then go home. Most will never do spying and most will express deep disappointment by the time they leave their Agencies. I say a lot more about this aspect in my books, the Western Agencies don’t have the best people at all. Since the nineties they became mediocre in the extreme. However, you do find the more active ones around, a rare breed and the minority, the CIA’s Special Activities Division, DGSE, the French spy service, and in the GMJ Books, the Egg Breakers. Truth to be told, if I had to write about the South African Secret Service alone, I would have been boring beyond belief. Luckily, I am not boring, the GMJ Books are warnings, military history, Special Forces techniques and modern political / military analyses. They do not claim to say much about the South African Secret Service as such, first because it would have been wrong, and secondly because almost nothing is known about them. The Service is only mentioned on the side because of the main character, Angelique Dawson, being a senior member.

In the fictional story, Angelique Dawson, the one-time South African Secret Service Head of Counter-terrorism and Counterespionage, defects in 2012 to France, her first love and the service she was recruited to 28 years before (Code Name VFO565, GMJ 1). I say again that the storyline does not claim to be the truth and nothing but the truth. That is why there is a fiction disclaimer and no footnotes. But not everything is fiction. I use the books to highlight events, explain tactics, operational methods, worrisome trends and to give expert political analyses together with much history to those able to read between the lines and most readers are able to do so, happily so. I say this often, the GMJ Books are warnings. To write the warnings in any other way than what they are now would be dangerous to my health, professional reputation and the safety of my family even though I left the Great Game years ago.

About this briefing

This briefing is not standard. Usually when you brief a president or whoever you are very specific, you don’t jump around and you focus on one subject only. If he desires to know something else, another specialist briefer is produced for that subject. Only the very top spymasters know everything, how the dots are connected or how they think the dots are connected. Here it is different, I had to adapt the standard boring formula to include many more subjects than just one. Let me start by saying that when you write a series of counter-terrorism books with no end in sight, you must repeat at times what took place before and even in the future, depending on the story you are telling your readers. If you have read my previous books this short briefing may not be news to you but we should appreciate that not all readers have read the other books yet and may be new to GMJ Books, if so, welcome, I hope you enjoy reading my books. I decided to explain the GMJ background as a briefing since GMJ 19, Code Name Bella Dawn, was published. Before that it was set out inside the books but not in a formal way. Then readers said they want the briefing in every book and in the format that it is written now, I obeyed. As I said in my author’s note, these books should be seen and read as a warning, they have messages in them which are important for you to know and most certainly the messages are not in mainstream media although they tend to become mainstream news after publication. I know these books are studied by Chinese officials for obvious reasons and I also know that many of my readers are American, good conservative folk.

GMJ is not anti-American

As a man I believe in what the young widow Ruth said to Mara, her mother-in-law: Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God... Ruth
