The Enemy Within is a 1994 HBO TV-movie remake of the 1964 film Seven Days in May, starring Forest Whitaker, Jason Robards, Jr., Dana Delaney and Sam Waterston, and directed by Jonathan Darby. The film involves a planned military coup to overthrow the President of the United States.

Plot Summary

Marine Colonel MacKenzie "Mac" Casey (Whitaker) discovers an apparent plan by General R. Pendleton Lloyd (Robards) and Secretary of Defense Charles Potter (Josef Sommer) to remove President William Foster (Waterston) from office and replace him with Vice President Walter Kelly (Dakin Matthews), who they feel would be more willing to do their bidding. Casey and Foster desperately seek evidence before the coup occurs. They encounter a setback when Attorney General Arthur Daniels (Lawrence Pressman) is murdered. The coup attempt is foiled with the aid of President Foster's Chief of Staff Betsy Corcoran (Dana Delany) and some well-placed Russian friends.

The Enemy Within: The Secret War Against the Miners is a book by British journalist and writer Seumas Milne, first published in 1994. Updated editions were released in 1995, 2004, and 2014.

Synopsis

The book investigates the circumstances surrounding the UK miners' strike (1984–85) and the involvement of intelligence services in destroying the miners and the lengths the police, intelligence services and government went to in subverting public opinion. Verso Books stated that "In this 30th anniversary edition new material brings the story up to date with further revelations about the secret war against organised labour and political dissent".

Reception

Owen Jones described the book as "A terrifying, frightening indictment of the British establishment" while Naomi Klein praised it as "The definitive account of the strike—the best book on the Thatcher era". In The Irish Times the book was commended as "A staggering journalistic investigation" with Joseph Crilly writing that "one can only allow one’s head to swirl with a sense of the iniquity and the dishonesty involved". The book was also recommended by Red Pepper in which Huw Beynon described the book as a "classic" and wrote "Through Seamus Milne’s unique reporting into the dark side of the miners’ strike, we can find roots of the repression that Britain continues to struggle with".
