Conspiracy
Sir Ranulph Fiennes alleged in his book The Feather Men that Mike Kealy was murdered by a group of contract killers called "The Clinic" in revenge for his role in the killing of Sheik's son. Fiennes suggests that Major Kealy's death was a result of a diabetic shock induced by the killers injecting him with insulin before the exercise. However, the circumstances of Mike Kealy's death suggest that this is somewhat fanciful. Kealy was seen by other service personnel undergoing the same SAS endurance exercise only a few hours beforehand.

Famous quotes containing the word conspiracy:
“If we are on the outside, we assume a conspiracy is the perfect working of a scheme. Silent nameless men with unadorned hearts. A conspiracy is everything that ordinary life is not. It’s the inside game, cold, sure, undistracted, forever closed off to us. We are the flawed ones, the innocents, trying to make some rough sense of the daily jostle. Conspirators have a logic and a daring beyond our reach. All conspiracies are the same taut story of men who find coherence in some criminal act.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)
“People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices.”
—Adam Smith (1723–1790)
“Impenetrable in their dissimulation, cruel in their vengeance, tenacious in their purposes, unscrupulous as to their methods, animated by profound and hidden hatred for the tyranny of man—it is as though there exists among them an ever-present conspiracy toward domination, a sort of alliance like that subsisting among the priests of every country.”
—Denis Diderot (1713–1784)
