Two Years Ago — Mike Pompeo : “I was the CIA director. We lied, we cheated, we stole.” [April 15 2019]

“What’s the cadet motto at West Point? You will not lie, cheat, or steal, or tolerate those who do. I was the CIA director. We lied, we cheated, we stole. It’s – it was like – we had entire training courses. It reminds you of the glory of the American experiment.”

On This Day — Operation El Dorado Canyon (April 14 1986) [Timelines & Conspiracy Theories — 2021]

“President Ronald Reagan didn’t seek congressional approval when he bombed Libya (April 14 1986) in retaliation for a bombing of a Pan Am flight over Lockerbie, Scotland (Dec. 21 1988).”

Amber Phillips — Washington Post (April 7 2017)

April 14 1986 — Reagan Strikes on Tripoli and Benghazi

April 14 2021 — In a piece published by the Washington Post on April 7 2017, Amber Phillips wrote that President Ronald Reagan’s April 14 1986 bombing raid on Tripoli and Benghazi was retaliation for the December 21 1988 attack on Pan Am 103 over Lockerbie. Obvious nonsense!

But I would like to take this opportunity to remind you the importance of studying, researching and analysing the facts! Whatever the subject I investigate, I always begin by working out the very best timeline I can manage. This is a theory of mine: No lie, no matter how professional — even a CIA lie — can survive a good timeline. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY

On This Day — CIA Launches Project MK-ULTRA (April 13, 1953) [2021]

“The CIA’s Office of Scientific Intelligence organized the project, code-named Project MK-ULTRA, in coordination with the U.S. Army Biological Warfare Laboratories. In some cases, academic researchers were funded through grants funneled to them from CIA front organizations while remaining unaware that the CIA sought to use their work for its own purposes. In other instances, however, top officials at these institutions knew about the CIA’s role.”

Andrew Glass — Politico (April 13, 2019)

April 13 2021 — On April 13 1953, CIA Director Allen Dulles ordered the agency to develop mind-controlling drugs to be deployed against members of the Soviet bloc.

60 Years Ago — “I come from outer space!” [Yuri Gagarin – April 12 1961]

“Having stepped onto firm ground, I saw a woman and a girl who were standing near a spotted calf and who were watching me with bewilderment. When they saw me in my space suit and the parachute dragging alongside as I walked, they started to back away in fear. I told them, don’t be afraid, I am a Soviet like you, who has descended from space and I must find a telephone to call Moscow!”

On This Day — The Great Gardner Museum Heist (March 18 1990) [UPDATE — New NETFLIX Docuseries]

“I have spoken to former IRA members who say it was common knowledge these paintings were probably in hands of the organization.”

Arthur Brand — Dutch investigator and art adviser based in Amsterdam

The Storm on the Sea of Galilee by Rembrandt (1633)

March 18 2021 — On March 18 1990, two men posing as police officers entered the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston and stole 13 pieces, including three Rembrandts, among them his only seascape “The Storm on the Sea of Galilee”, Vermeer’s “The Concert”, and works by Flinck, Manet, and Degas. Despite a $10 million reward and promises of immunity, none of the pieces has been recovered. Thirty years later, nobody has ever been charged with the crime. In 1990, the FBI estimated the value of the haul at $200 million. This estimate was raised to $500 million by 2000. Today, these pieces could be worth US $1 billion. Follow us on Twitter: @Intel_Today

20 Years Ago — Kangaroo Zeist Court issues Infamous Lockerbie verdict (January 31 2001) [UPDATE : Judges reject new Lockerbie appeal. Family to apply to UK Supreme Court]

“The disparity between historical reality and the description of history in books and newspapers can lead our youth only to lack of belief, to cynicism, whereas we need belief, but real belief can be based only on the truth.”

Russian poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko — Open Letter (New York Times – February 17 1974)

January 31 2021 — On January 31, 2001, a kangaroo Court in the Netherlands rendered its verdict. Although two Libyan citizens had been prosecuted for the ‘bombing’ conspiracy of Pan Am 103, the judges found one of them not guilty and sentenced the other one for murder. Go figure! I guess that, given enough whiskey, it does not take two to tango in Scotland. Twenty years later, on January 15 2021, Lord Carloway — The Lord Justice General in the appeal — delivered the opinion of the Scottish Appeal Court. Without surprise to the readers of this blog, the Court upheld the guilty verdict of the trial court. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY

On This Day — The Douma Conspiracy Begins (April 7 2018) [2021]

“The dimensions, characteristics and appearance of the cylinders, and the surrounding scene of the incidents, were inconsistent with what would have been expected in the case of either cylinder being delivered from an aircraft. In each case the alternative hypothesis [The Douma attack was staged.] produced the only plausible explanation for observations at the scene.”

OPCW Fact Finding Mission in Douma, Syria

Carla Ortiz in Douma (Ghouta), Syria — May 2018

April 7 2021 — On this day three years ago, Western media reported a chemical attack in the Syrian city of Douma. From the very beginning, I told you that it was abundantly clear that the “Douma chemical attack” had been staged.  Today, we know that the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons  (OPCW) report was manipulated to support this piece of propaganda. Moreover, BBC Syria producer Riam Dalati later revealed that the hospital scene in video footage taken after the suspected chemical attack was fake. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY
