In its own words:
"The purpose of the Institute for the Study of Globalisation and Covert Politics (ISGP) has been to inform the world about the existence of an entire network of private, highly influential but low-profile organizations which have had great influence on how the world is shaped."
Main focus: deep state
The site contains only about two dozen major articles but some are near book-length. They are in-depth studies of the organisations and issues identified in their titles and all are scrupulously researched, referenced and footnoted. Much of the information they contain is very difficult - if not impossible - to find elsewhere. The articles about the Belgian Dutroux affair are beyond shocking; not only for the almost unbelievable depravities they describe, but for their extensive evidence of the systematic, calculated involvement in those depravities by groups enjoying the protection of the highest levels of western society, not to mention Russia. It is not a subject for the faint-hearted.
Archived by Wikispooks
In early 2010 van der Reijden began to hint that the site was at risk and advised supporters to make backups of it with a view to being able to mirror it if, for whatever reason, it was taken it down. In late September 2010 the site was taken down, leaving just a single splash page with brief information and contact details. However, a zip file of the entire site was made before it was taken down and made available on WikiSpooks.
In later years Joël made a lot of major additions to the archived site, both in terms of articles and layout. For practical reasons, partly involving long-term financial guarantees, he decided not to restart the site at an independent location. Also, rebuilding the site to its 2007-2010 status would be impossible due to censorship by the major alternative media outlets which, since late 2007, was total.
2014 Relaunch
In December 2014 Joël re-launched the site at ISGP.nl. It is regularly updated with new articles and revisions.
The pre-December 2014 archived version of the site is accessible on the Wikispooks server here.
