BEg2 ch- Who killed Traipse and WIndust

[Mark Kohut]

The Foreign Office
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign,_Commonwealth_and_Development_Office>
 suspected that Maxwell was a secret agent of a foreign government,
possibly a double agent <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_agent>
or a triple
agent <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_agent>, and "a thoroughly bad
character and almost certainly financed by Russia
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_Union>". He had known links to the
British Secret Intelligence Service
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secret_Intelligence_Service> (MI6), to the
Soviet KGB <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KGB>, and to the Israeli
intelligence service Mossad <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mossad>.[52]
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Maxwell#cite_note-52> Six serving and
former heads of Israeli intelligence services attended Maxwell's funeral in
Israel, while Israeli Prime Minister
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli_Prime_Minister> Yitzhak Shamir
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yitzhak_Shamir> eulogised him and stated:
"He has done more for Israel than can today be told."[53]
