On This Day — Mike Pompeo : “I was the CIA director. We lied, we cheated, we stole.” [April 15 2019]

Posted on April 15, 2025 by L

“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, and the Myth of Syrian Involvement]

Posted on April 14, 2025 by L

“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 [December 21 1988].”

April 14 1986 — Reagan Strikes on Tripoli and Benghazi

April 14 2023 — 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 analyzing the facts! Whatever the subject I investigate, I always begin the same way. I work 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

CIA Memorial Wall — STAR 26 (CLASSIFIED): Hugh Francis Redmond (Shanghai prison, China — April 13, 1970)

Posted on April 13, 2025 by L

“Alerted by doctrine and success against another local CIA operation, Shanghai’s security apparatus moved cautiously against Redmond’s network, obtaining evidence that made the guilty verdict of 1954 inevitable. To Chinese intelligence practitioners, the case provides an exemplary example of how counter-espionage work against the US should proceed in the 21st century.”

Chinese retrospectives on the Hugh Redmond case

The Herald Statesman, Yonkers, N.Y. – November 5, 1962

April 13, 2025 — Hugh Francis Redmond was a CIA officer and former U.S. Army paratrooper who spent nearly 20 years as a prisoner in China after being captured during a CIA mission. The details of his involvement with the CIA remain largely classified to this day, adding to the mystery surrounding his case. Perhaps, the CIA will remember him on the 55th anniversary of his death, and finally add his name to the Book of Honor? Follow us on Twitter: @Intel_Today

On This Day — Yuri Gagarin : “I come from outer space!” (April 12 1961) [UPDATE : Creepy Disinformation from ChatGPT]

Posted on April 12, 2025 by L

“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!”

Diary — Yuri Gagarin
(April 12 1961)

April 12 2023 — On April 12 1961, Yuri Gagarin became the first person to venture in outer space. His spacecraft — Vostok 1 — orbited for 108 minutes before returning to Earth in Kazakhstan. At about 7,000 metres (23,000 ft), Gagarin ejected from the descending capsule and landed using a parachute. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY

Posted on April 11, 2025 by L

“As I told the Prime Minister the last time, he vastly overestimates the competence of the CIA.”

Henri Kissinger
(Answer to Zhou Enlai about the US involvement in the bombing of the Kashmir Princess)

April 11, 2025 — On April 11, 1955, the Kashmir Princess — a chartered Lockheed L-749A Constellation aircraft owned by Air India — was damaged mid-air by a bomb explosion. The plane crashed into the South China Sea while en route from Hong Kong to Jakarta, Indonesia. Sixteen of those on board were killed, while three survived. The target of the assassination was none other than Chinese Premier Zhou Enlai. Responsibility for the bombing was initially attributed to Indian intelligence agencies, but it was later discovered that the CIA was behind the plot. Follow us on Twitter: @Intel_Today

DNI Tulsi Gabbard Launches Task Force Focused on De-Politicizing U.S. Intelligence Agencies [Does Gabbard read Intel Today?]

Posted on April 10, 2025 by L

April 10, 2025 — The Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, has announced the formation of a new task force aimed at eliminating the politicization of America’s intelligence agencies.

Lockerbie — New documents blame Libya for Pan Am 103 and UTA 772 [UPDATE : Sarkozy and Gaddafi’s Spy Chief: Deal or Denial? Verdict Coming September 25 — POLL]

Posted on April 9, 2025 by L

“The FBI and the US Department of Justice have been aware of this and I know they’re working closely with their colleagues at the Crown Office and Police Scotland to see if this is something that can be used in court. I’m very hopeful that it can be used and will lead to at least one more conviction. We’ll have to see what goes beyond that, depending on what they can find.”

Former FBI Richard Marquise
(March 2025)

March 19 2025 — If authenticated, the newly revealed documents provide incontrovertible evidence that Colonel Gaddafi’s Jamahiriya Security Organisation (JSO) was indeed behind the destruction of both Pan Am 103 and UTA 772. Follow us on Twitter: @Intel_Today

MLK Day — Remembering Dr. Martin Luther King (January 15 1929 – Assassinated April 4 1968) (The FBI Suicide Letter) [UPDATE : Public Skepticism Toward the FBI Reaches New Highs] [Poll : Do you believe that the CIA is behind Pornhub?]

Posted on April 4, 2025 by L

“The debate over how much the government should know about our private lives has never been more heated. Should intelligence agencies be able to sweep our email, read our texts, track our phone calls, locate us by GPS? Much of the conversation swirls around the possibility that agencies like the N.S.A. or the F.B.I. will use such information not to serve national security but to carry out personal and political vendettas. King’s experience reminds us that these are far from idle fears, conjured in the fevered minds of civil libertarians. They are based in the hard facts of history.”

“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.”

January 15 2025 — On November 21 1964, a letter — and a tape recording allegedly of King’s sexual indiscretions — was delivered to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The author appears to suggest that King should commit suicide or else… Although the letter was anonymously written, King suspected the FBI had sent the package He was not wrong. Today, I will raise an obvious question: Is the CIA behind the infamous PORNHUB website? Follow us on Twitter: @Intel_Today
