All countries need intelligence services however what they do needs to be controlled and not actions against their own people or to cover up the agency failings.
Lockerbie PAN AM flight that got blown up has strange CIA connections.
Both the US ambassador to Lebanon, John McCarthy, and the South African Foreign Minister Pik Botha had their travel plans altered at the last minute in order to avoid PA103 for an earlier flight despite the S African having a pre-arranged meeting in London that he then missed with the ex Swedish Prime Minister / UN Commissioner for Namibia, Bernt Carlsson.
They were both supposed to be on the same PAN AM flight together following a meeting with DeBeers diamonds in London to attend a UN meeting about Namibia. Carlsson was critical of DeBeers diamond operations in Namibia and S Africa and Mr Botha reportedly suggested the meeting in London - ahead of a UN meeting on Namibia in New York - with DeBeers diamonds and also with Botha
Only Carlsson was killed along Charles McKee, a US Army Special Forces Major, and Matthew Gannon, the CIA’s Beirut deputy station chief and 3 other US agents who reports claim were returning to the USA to expose CIA drug smuggling from Lebanon related to George W Bush

If you read the link above it sets out the sworn statements made and confirmation that the CIA was allowing drugs to enter the USA on this route supposedly to track them though other claims are made below
Charles M. McKee, ostensibly a military attache for the DIA in Beirut, Matthew Gannon, CIA Deputy Station Chief in Beirut Lebanon and three others were on board Pan Am Flight 103, which exploded over Lockerbie, Scotland. They were part of a counterterrorist team in Beirut investigating the possible rescue of 9 American hostages in Lebanon. The McKee team uncovered evidence that a rogue CIA unit called COREA, based in Wiesbaden, was doing business with a man called Monzer Al-Kassar, a Syrian arms dealer and drug trafficker. Al-Kassar was part of the covert network run by U.S. Lieut. Colonel Oliver North. Outraged that the COREA unit in Wiesbaden was doing business with a Syrian who had close terrorist connections and might endanger their chances of rescuing the hostages, the McKee team decided to fly back to Virginia unannounced and expose the COREA unit's secret deal with al-Kassar. They never got there. "For three years, I've had a feeling that if Chuck hadn't been on that plane, it wouldn't have been bombed," said Beulah McKee, 75, Charles McKee's mother, to Time Magazine. Four months after her son was killed for his efforts to expose the CIA, Mrs. McKee received a sympathy letter from George H. W. Bush. Mrs. McKee has never been satisfied with the government's version of events.

Also note the UK put Andrew Green in charge of the Lockerbie investigation he was the UK Foreign office official in charge of liaising with the US on Iran-Contra CIA drugs and guns

Also note Carlsson the UN Commissioner and Ex Swedish PM resigned as PM the day after several men were spotted on his roof by a security guard at nearby building not his Swedish Secret Service Guards. The men on the roof were caught and turned out to be policemen who had no right to be there. They said it was a joke and were never charged.
A previous Swedish PM and close friend of Carlsson was assassinated some say because he was trying to broker peace with USA and USSR and at least between Sweden and USSR and was critical of S Africa and against most CIA plans and wishes, and that right wing Swedish police were linked to the assassination. There were neo nazi groups in the Swedish police and the investigation was strangely handled with much covering up of evidence discussed but never dealt with.

Olof Palme was the prime minister of Sweden, assassinated in 1986. Oliver North, the golden boy of the Bush/Reagan machine, had met with Mr. Palme to discuss the possibility of obtaining false end-user certificates for the plethora of weapons that were being purchased, so that they would seem to have come from a country other than the U.S. Mr. Palme refused to participate, after the plan was presented to him. He was dead within weeks.

This Oliver North request was later shown to be almost certainly connected with CIA contra drugs and arms sales to the Contras or Iran.
Also US Embassy in Moscow was warning people not to fly on that PAM AM type of flight stopping in both Frankfurt and London
Vague memories of seeing F111 jets on their way from England to Libya to do the retribution bombings, Reagan iirc.
Later in research, I recall there being a story about the Israelis placing a radio relay station in Libya, transmitting some incriminating audio for the US to pick up, and the narrative about Libya was established.
Years later, some years ago, the named culprit who was serving time in England as a patsy for the job was released, ostensibly in UK press because he had cancer. Iirc the real reason was to purchase some favour from Libya. It might have been their declaration to give up various weapons. Later of course, despite playing along with these schemes (or because) we know what happened to Gaddafi...
Yep, there was some pointless detail about the electronic trigger, that supposedly pointed to Libya, but it was a murky scheme for sure.

Yes i think you are right about it but nobody links up the story they are just bits put out at various times

Lester Coleman, blew the whistle on massive CIA drug smuggling activity directly responsible for certain airport security anomalies/breeches, which enabled explosives to be smuggled aboard https://rense.com/general/cole.htm
Allan Francovich made the documentary film, The Maltese Double Cross along with Gladio, three part BBC documentary on Operation Gladio, broadcast in 1992. LeWinter is identified in the documentary as "Colonel Oswald Le Winter, CIA-ITAC liaison officer, Europe."
October Surprise: Martin Kilian of Der Spiegel interviewed LeWinter in Sep 1988 and published article of October meeting in Paris between CIA Director and officials from Israel and Iran.
Francovich said he had learned that 5 CIA operatives had been sent to London and Cyprus to discredit the film while it was being made, that his office phones were tapped, and staff cars sabotaged, and that one of his researchers narrowly escaped an attempt to force his vehicle into the path of an oncoming truck.
April 17, 1997, Allan Francovich suddenly died of a heart attack at age 56, upon arrival at Houston Airport https://rense.com/general3/panam.htm
BBC: Abu Nidal 'behind Lockerbie bombing' Atef Abu Bakr says Abu Nidal told a meeting of his Fatah-Revolutionary Council that he had organised the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103, also claimed Abu Nidal was responsible for 1986 attack on West Berlin disco, provoking American air strikes on Libya. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/2211327.stm
German TV exposes CIA, Mossad links to 1986 Berlin disco bombing - main suspects in the disco bombing; worked for American and Israeli intelligence. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/1998/08/bomb-a27.html
Abu Nidal, notorious Palestinian mercenary, 'was a US spy' Abu Nidal even worked for Israel's Mossad intelligence agency, has written of how, when he feared treachery in his own ranks, a suspected spy would be buried alive, fed through a tube for days and then – if Abu Nidal's "court" deemed death appropriate – a bullet would be fired down the tube. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/abu-nidal-notorious-palestinian-mercenary-was-a-us-spy-972812.html
After the bombing took place on 21 December 1988, the US State Department said that an unidentified person had telephoned the US Embassy in Helsinki, Finland, on 5 Dec, saying there would be a bombing attempt within two weeks against a Pan Am aircraft flying from Frankfurt to the United States. The caller claimed to belong to the Abu Nidal group, the State Department said at the time. http://lockerbiecase.blogspot.com/2017/08/abu-nidal-and-pan-am-103.html
Why was the authenticity of US intelligence's Tripoli-Berlin intercept not challenged by Washington and London, given the fact that a similar intercept had earlier been mistakenly used by the Reagan regime to blame Libya for a bomb which exploded at a Berlin club on April 5, 1986, and to justify the U.S bombing of Tripoli and Benghazi nine days later, which killed Gadafy's infant adopted daughter in a brash attempt to kill Libyan leader
By Way Of Deception (the title comes from the Mossad motto), will testify that it was Mossad commandos who set up the transmitter in Tripoli that generated a false signal about the "success" of the Berlin bomb https://www.theguardian.com/uk/1999/apr/17/lockerbie
