How to remove McGehee's articles?

groups. Some of these entries suggested ways the CIA could improve its
counterintelligence, counterterrorism, intelligence and covert
operations.
The majority, however dealt with criticisms of both policy and
operations. I created a webpage, now defunct, that contained many of
those criticisms.
I earlier wrote a book after clearing the text through the CIA
and later received blanket approval to publish opinion pieces as long
as they did not contain classified information. I did this out of
concern for the United States and its interests.
The events of 9/11 forced me to recognize the immediate dangers
to the United States from terrorism in this graphic, terrible,
disaster.
Now my delimna is how to remove the Usenet and other posts and
data so that the information can not be used by others. I have tried
via Google's
Automatic Removal Tool to delete posts but my limited computer skills
defeats those attempts -- but even so most posts from an earlier era
cannot be removed via that tool.
If anyone can help or advise me on such procedures, I request
their help.

could help. Your notoriety has propagated itself throughout the internet to
various and sundry websites controlled all manner of people, who then use
your words to support various conspiracy theories.
Having read one of them at
http://www.webcom.com/~pinknoiz/covert/protect.html
I seriously doubt that foreign intelligence operatives or other evil doers
would seek to use your other material to their advantage. There is just too
much information available from official government sources to include IG
reports and GAO reports on the web.
But that is one of the problems with the internet - you push that send
button and you're stuck with it for life.

For some time now we at Vietnam Veterans Against the War/Anti-Imperialist
had been using your information for students requesting topics related to your
work. By far the most valuable was your paper on Phoenix Program posted on :
http://www.vwip.org/articles/m/McGeheeRalph_VietnamsPhoenixProgram.htm
to which we refered students and other researchers. While other explanations
of this program exist on line, yours would be sorely missed. Do you plan to
remove this site as well?

First, as others have mentioned, total removal is ost likely impossible.
1> the info has been grabbed up by many others and now is under
their domain
2> most everything on usenet makes it to an archive of one sort
or another, so, even if you could remove all the
web related info, the archives of usenet will contain
it forever, thus is the state of terabytes of info...
But, folks who have read Mr. McGehee's stuff and Ralph himself might want to
check out these links. I obtained thse via a security related mailing list
during a discussion of firewall-1 and the long supposed but unproven Mossad
backdoor into this product. The discussion centered soon upon something
interesting, aside from that long supposed rumor, that, as I mention, has
never shown fruit for anything but a illtemptered rumor against Checkpoint
Firewall-1, yet these are interesting links in and of themselves with a
totally different slant:

Under Deja Vu, the individual who posted a message could delete that
post, providing he was writing from the same address. It was a very
labor intensive process, and you had to reply to the robot each time
to confirm that you did indeed want to remove the message. I don't
know what Google has done with the process.
