Maurice Tugwell (24 June 1925 - 10 October 2010) was a career officer in the Parachute Regiment who served in the 1939-45 war and in a succession of colonial counterinsurgency operations. Tugwell served most notably in Ireland where he headed the black propaganda Information Policy unit (1971-73 (March)) which operated covertly inside British Army HQ in Lisburn in Northern Ireland. After leaving Ireland in March 1973, Tugwell 'transferred to Iran as an instructor at the Imperial Armed Forces College', during the reign of the Shah. 'He was awarded the CBE the same year. In 1975 he went to Nottingham, and in 1976 he took up a defence fellowship at King's College, London'.[1][2] His Phd focused on revolutionary propaganda at King's College in London, following which he moved to Canada and became involved with right wing think tanks including the Centre for Conflict Studies (1980-86) and the Mackenzie Institute (1986-91).

Military career

According to his former colleague John Thompson (at the MacKenzie Institute), Tugwell's military career stretched from the 1939-45 war to Iran in the 1970s:

As a young Parachute Regiment officer he had jumped across the Rhine into Germany in the last great offensive of the War, then he had been in Palestine (in 1946-47), Malaysia fighting the Communist terrorists, sundry places in the Middle East, in Cyprus, in Ulster in the early 1970s and was attached by the British government to the Iranian military after that.[3]

According to an author note on the Amazon.com website, Tugwell 'was with the British 6th Airborne Division in Palestine 1945-48, and during his subsequent military career he returned to Israel on attachment to the Israel Defence Force parachute brigade.'[4]

Ireland

Information Policy

Information organisations in January 1972

As Aly Renwick puts it:

In Malaya, Kenya, Cyprus and Aden inquisitive journalists had been kept away from the action, but this was not always possible now. In Northern Ireland, reporters appeared to be everywhere, and the army quickly realised that an ‘information policy’ was required. The writer Liz Curtis, in her book Ireland - The Propaganda War, detailed the build up of Army public relations in Northern Ireland:
In September 1971, soon after the start of internment, the army reorganised its information service in the North, setting up an ‘Information Policy’ department. This was initially headed by paratroop Colonel Maurice Tugwell, whose title was Colonel General Staff (Information Policy). Tugwell had previously been an intelligence officer in Palestine, and had also served in Malaya, Cyprus, Arabia and Kenya.
... Tugwell’s job as ‘Information Policy’ chief was, ... described [as] ... ‘not merely to react to the media - or to events - but to take a positive initiative in presenting the news to the best advantage for the security forces’.
... The army began training officers in how to be interviewed on television, and by the end of 1971 more than 200 officers had been through courses at the Army School of Instructional Technology at Beaconsfield. Here they were taught basic lore, such as always to look at the interviewer to give the impression of sincerity, and told how to answer ‘typical’ TV questions.[31][5]

In November 1971, Tugwell produced an appraisal of IRA propaganda that effectively labelled most nationalist spokespeople of the time as fronts for the organisation:

IRA Propaganda Organisation
7. IRA propaganda has its base in Dublin where both factions run their own information centres, both with the title "Irish Republican Publicity Bureau." Each has a full time staff and has subordinate directors in Belfast, Londonderry and elsewhere. The campaign is pushed by numerous front organisations and by Republican sympathisers who, having themselves been taken in by the propaganda, are willing to spread the word. These organisations include:
a. The Association for Legal Justice (which has been the principal agency for co-ordinating the campaign alleging brutality during internment and interrogation).
b. Republican Clubs (which have always been fronts for the Sinn Fein political party and which now help to disseminate the propaganda of whichever faction they have chosen to support).
c. The Belfast Central Citizens Defence Committee (once given a cloak of respectability as representative of the Catholic population of the city, but now heavily involved in promoting IRA interests).
d. The Irish News (a newspaper that has long represented Republican opinion in Ulster and is now an organ for printing IRA propaganda).
e. Catholic Ex-Servicemans Association (is becoming increasingly involved with the IRA as a front organisation).
f. NICRA (Directed by Kevin McCorry)
g. Various Relief and Action Committees in Catholic Areas.
h. Minority Rights Association.
j. Various regional Citizens Defence Committees working to the CCDC.
k. SDLP.
l. PD and other "New Left" organisations.
m. Vigilante or street committees, who organise allegations and fake damage, etc.
n. University groups and teachers.
o. RTE and newspapers in the Republic to varying degrees, with the Irish Press particularly active.
p. Committee for Truth (Fr Denis Faul - brutality allegations vehicle).
q. Association of Irish Priests (Ulster Branch) (Secretary Terrance O'Keefe, Coleraine University)).
r. A number of RC priests, but Frs Brady, Faul and Egan are prominent.[6]

In a 2009 article on this document, Irish News editor Noel Doran dismissed Tugwell's analysis as 'ludicrous':

“While at one level the comments from the British army source are amusing, it still has to be alarming that such ludicrous attitudes could be found at a senior level in the security establishment of the period,” Mr Doran said.
“This was a time when The Irish News was holding the line for constitutional politics in very dangerous circumstances and being castigated by republican and loyalist extremists as a result.[7]

Under cross examination at the bloody sunday inquiry Tugwell denied that he had been engaged in black operations but confirmed that such operations were never ruled out:

"black operations is an option. PsyOps... is an option, and those options just are not willed away because I was not interested in pursuing them. They were in their scabbards and stayed there, to the best of my knowledge." [8]

In a note written by Tugwell in 1972, regarding Information Policy, Tugwell commented that:

"Personal contacts will become increasingly important. We need to produce pamphlets and booklets and at brigade and unit level there is scope for letters, posters, leaflets and newsletters. 'Black' activities are unlikely to benefit us, except in rare, carefully controlled instances."

[9]

In response to questioning Tugwell denied that such instances ever arose.

Under cross-examination at the Saville Inquiry Tugwell described the IP's use of unattributable briefings:

"the unattributable briefing does allow a good briefer to inject ideas into journalists. In fact to give them a sort of lead so they go off and find the story for themselves."

[10]

'Bloody sunday' propagandist

On Monday, former British Army intelligence officer Maurice Tugwell, formerly a Colonel in the Information Policy unit admitted that the claims he made in an interview after Bloody Sunday that four of those killed were on a wanted list of IRA men were wrong. He said he had made the claims after "oral" intelligence checks.
He told the inquiry that "Later, I am not sure when, I discovered that the allegation that four men were on a wanted list could not be sustained." It was, he said, "an honest mistake".
During the radio interview Tugwell had claimed that, "One of the dead men was found in a car ... with four nail bombs in his pockets ... And of the others who are dead in the hospital, preliminary investigations show that four of them at least are on the wanted list."
"We have sent our investigators to the hospital and it is rather interesting that two of the wounded men, with gunshot wounds, have admitted that they were out on the streets armed with guns."
Speaking about the events of Bloody Sunday itself, at which he had in fact been present taking photographs of the marchers, Tugwell had told the interviewer that "Whilst they [the Paras] were on that operation, they came under fire, mainly from the area of the Rossville Flats, and there were altogether 25 shooting engagements, in 10 of which they could not identify the source of the fire and they did not fire back at all. In the other 15 they did identify and they fired back in all of them."
"On one occasion the soldier, who was armed with a riot gun which only fired rubber bullets, found himself facing a gunman with a pistol who fired two shots at him. All the bloke could do was to fire back with rubber bullets and then beat it. But on all the other occasions they fired back with live ammunition." All of this information, Tugwell admitted, came from 1 Para.[11]

Cross-examined at the Saville Inquiry Colin Wallace stated that Tugwell was the author of an article titled "The Knocking Game, a Case Study in Propaganda." Whilst ostensibly putting across the position of the Army the article congratulated the bravery of the "gunmen" supposedly present on Bloody Sunday.

Perhaps the most disgusting aspect of the Londonderry propaganda campaign is the manner in which the 'Derry martyrs' have been deprived of all credit for what were, by any standards, brave and determined attempts by some of them to defend the Bogside against a Parachute Battalion. It was foolhardy for amateur gunmen to take on some of the best trained regular soldiers in Europe. Nevertheless they seized whatever weapons were to hand and died in the attempt. Only the most corrupt and cynical organisation would deliberately set out to deny them a proper measure of respect for their sacrifice.

This was apparently intended as a more subtle way of establishing the fiction that the deaths on Bloody Sunday occurred in the context of a gun battle. (however the document appears to have been strictly for internal army use and does not appear to have been distributed to the media).

Wallace stated that he did not believe the article accurately represented the view of the army but rather was an example of Tugwell's engagement in psyops. [12]

Canada

Smearing the Green movement

Having arrived in Canada and set up the Centre for Conflict Studies in 1980 with David Charters Tugwell proceeds to engage in similar propaganda techniques to those he had used in Ireland. but this time the target and the paymaster was different. Seeking sponsorship from corporations he bagan attacking the green movement and smearing it as being linked to 'terrorism'.

Robert Stanley provides a good account of this period.[13]

Peace with Freedom

In 1988 Tugwell published Peace with Freedom, a book which criticised the Canadian peace movement as an ‘internal threat’. [14] In the book Tugwell ironically portrayed the peace movement as a threat to peace. He divided the movement movement into three categories - the churches, the mainstream, and the communists. The church and the mainstream he argued sought to leave Canada defenceless against the USSR, and were in any case influenced or controlled by the communists who were conduits for Soviet propaganda. [15] One (sympathetic) reviewer described the book as follows:

Maurice Tugwell describes, unambiguously and in detail, how Canada's

"new class" - academics and schoolteachers, politicians and manadarins, artists, clerics, journalists, retired generals and union leaders - has been infiltrated by Soviet agents and sympathizers. The book is a program guide to players in the drama of subversion that would destroy the West's

will to oppose, let alone defeat, the march of international communism. [16]
