Two Years Ago — CIA Recruiting ‘AN US Russian Speaking  Citizen’ [UPDATE : On the art of avoiding assholes]

Posted on June 4, 2020 by L

“Are you an US citizen with a college degree?
Seriously CIA?”

Sujai Shukla @sujaishukla

“Seriously?? I think your first order of business should be to hire a proofreader. You made yourselves look like fools. Are you still concerned with the Russians? You have bigger problems than Russians. I find you so amusing, I have for over 25 years.”

FUKTWYTTER @Yousucktwytter

“Can I work part-time ? I’m working for [Russia] FSB currently but have some free time for CIA too.”

Aлкаш Татарстана  @tat_alkash

“Not giving a shit takes the wind out of an asshole’s sails.”

Sean Illing — Vox (February 2020)

June 4 2018 — The CIA — also known as the CYA (Cover your Ass) — is recruiting AN US CITIZEN. Think twice before you take this job! Then again, it may be a Freudian slip? That kind of thing happens when the new boss has spent too much time force-feeding prisoners through the wrong end of their pipe.

On the other hand, if the Agency is really looking to hire a new bunch of ‘ASSHOLES’, feel free to send them — — your own recommendations. Follow us on twitter: @Intel_Today Continue reading →

Posted on June 3, 2020 by L

“I know who leaked them [Hillary Clinton’s email]. I’ve met the person who leaked them, and they are certainly not Russian and it’s an insider. It’s a leak, not a hack; the two are different things.”

“I can affirm that the FCO and MI6 knew that al-Megrahi was not the Lockerbie bomber.”

“Philip Cross has edited every single day from 29 August 2013 to 14 May 2018. Including five Christmas Days. That’s 1,721 consecutive days of editing. 133,612 edits to Wikipedia.”

Former UK Ambassador Craig Murray

“I should be grateful if you would join Noam Chomsky, Yanis Varoufakis, David Hare, Roger Waters, Robert Black, Kristinn Hrnafsson, Christine Assange and many others in signing the open letter against the politically motivated legal harassment of people including Mark Hirst and myself.

I am not asking you to endorse our political views; I am asking you to support free speech and oppose this rather startling authoritarianism and highly selective prosecution.”

Craig Murray (June 1 2020)

Craig Murray was British Ambassador to Uzbekistan from 2002 to 2004.

COVID-19 — Why has Belgium the highest death rate in the world?

Posted on June 2, 2020 by L

“It is rare for Donald Trump to credit other countries with world records, but at a press briefing last month the US president unveiled a list that put Belgium at the top. Unfortunately for Belgium, it was a ranking of deaths from the coronavirus. According to numbers collated by the Johns Hopkins University, Belgium leads the world in deaths per head of population. (…) So why is Belgium’s relative death toll so high?”

The Independent (May 1st 2020)

June 2 2020 — Based on a comparison of corona-virus deaths in 178 countries relative to their population, Belgium had the most losses to COVID-19 up until May 29, 2020. These statistics are horrifying. And yet, the truth is even worse. In the Region of Brussels-Capital, the relative death rate is actually twice higher than the average for Belgium. What can possibly explain such an incredibly high death rate? Short answer: incompetence and corruption.  Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

Lockerbie — Three Decades of Lies: J’Accuse…! [Chapter III : Operation Autumn Leaves]

Posted on June 1, 2020 by L

“Late in October 1988 the German police in Frankfurt discovered a radio cassette bomb which contained barometric and timing devices indicating that it was intended to sabotage an aircraft.”

Paul Channon — House of Commons (March 21 1989)

“Marwan Khreesat and I had the first room on the right as you you come in the front door of Abassi flat and used it for work room for preparing the electronic appliances. Under my supervision and responsibility, Khreesat modified into bombs one Toshiba radio recorder, two tuners and one screen.”

Hafez Dalkamoni  — Interrogation by German federal police officers (October 27 1988)

“I can not give you any further details regarding my involvement.”

Marwan Khreesat – Interrogation by German federal police officers (October 27 1988)

“On December 21, 1988, Pan Am 103 disintegrated over Scotland with 270 people aboard. Within days it was confirmed that the disaster had been caused by a bomb. Investigators later revealed that the device had been hidden inside a Toshiba radio-recorder that had been placed inside a rust-coloured Samsonite suitcase.”

Gavin Hewitt — The Washington Post (September 24, 1989)

“Armed with the intelligence on the PFLP-GC s activities in Neuss in October and the FAA Warning, the Scottish investigators on the ground, assisted by their American friends, were in no doubt that they were looking for the remains of a copper Samsonite suitcase which would contain a Semtex based IED concealed within a Toshiba Radio. The radio would be enclosed in a cardboard box along with an instruction manual. They even knew that the explosives within the radio would be wrapped in Toblerone type wrapping foil. In no time whatsoever they ‘found’ what they were looking for.”

Lockerbie Investigator George Thomson — Email to Intel Today (July 9 2016)

June 1st 2020 — The similarities between the facts recorded during West German Police operation ‘Autumn Leaves’ and the Lockerbie indictment are so striking that no reasonable person will accept that such nearly identical stories could have happened independently of each other just by coincidence. Indeed, only a child would believe such a fairy tale. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY

Remembering Actress and Inventor Hedy Lamarr (November 9, 1914 – January 19, 2000) [UPDATE : Apple orders Gal Gadot’s Hedy Lamarr]

Posted on May 31, 2020 by L

“Any girl can be glamorous. All you have to do is stand still and look stupid.”

“American men, as a group, seem to be interested in only two things, money and breasts. It seems a very narrow outlook.”

“If you use your imagination, you can look at any actress and see her nude… I hope to make you use your imagination.”

Hedy Lamarr

“We began talking about the war, which, in the late summer of 1940, was looking most extremely black. Hedy said that she did not feel very comfortable, sitting there in Hollywood and making lots of money when things were in such a state. She said that she knew a good deal about munitions and various secret weapons … and that she was thinking seriously of quitting MGM and going to Washington, DC, to offer her services to the newly established Inventors’ Council.”

 George Antheil — Composer, pianist and inventor

A 1940s shot of Lamarr, ‘the most beautiful woman in the world’

January 19 2020 — Often called “The Most Beautiful Woman in Films,” Hedy Lamarr’s beauty and screen presence made her one of the most popular actresses of her day. It is however much less known that Lamarr was also an inventor who, along with composer George Antheil, patented a frequency-hopping system during World War II that presaged Bluetooth and Wi-Fi technology.

Louis Pasteur — University of Lille, France (December 7, 1854)

May 29 2020 — Europe is heading for a very hot summer and the heat should slow down the pandemic for the next few months. But, make no mistake.

On this Day — Remembering Ian Fleming (28 May 1908 – 12 August 1964) : Father of James Bond & Master of Disinformation

Posted on May 28, 2020 by L

“Fleming found he had a love for espionage, and combined with his support for all things British, provided purpose to his life. But after WWII ended, he found himself at loose ends, and took a job with a newspaper. He hated the drudgery that went with the position, and often found himself daydreaming while admiring a picture of Jamaica near his desk. After several vacations to the island, he decided to move there permanently and, drawing on his family’s income, built a home for himself. He called it ‘Goldeneye.’ Fleming told friends he had always wanted to write a spy novel…and now with time on his hands, he did exactly that.”

Ian Fleming: The Man Behind the Most Famous Spy — CIA Website (May 2018)

During location filming in Jamaica, Ian Fleming gives Sean Connery some first-hand pointers.

May 28 2020 — Ian Lancaster Fleming was an English author, journalist and naval intelligence officer who is best known for his James Bond series of spy novels. Before writing the series, Fleming authored some fantastic pieces of disinformation during WWII.

“Operation Mincemeat” is a true masterpiece! They really knew how to write ‘Fake News’ back then! In comparison, the amateurs who wrote the script of the “Skripal Affair” or the “Lockerbie Case” should be ashamed of themselves. Follow us on Twitter: @Intel_Today Continue reading →

60 Years Ago — U.S. Ambassador to the UN Henry Cabot Lodge unveiled ‘The Thing’ [Compromise of the Great Seal] (May 26 1960) 

Posted on May 27, 2020 by L

“#OTD in 1960 during a UN Security Council meeting, then-U.S. Ambassador to the UN Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr. stunned the world when he revealed a covert listening device in a wooden carving of the U.S. Great Seal gifted to the U.S. Ambassador in Moscow.”

CIA Tweet (May 26 2020)

“Theremin did some of his best scientific work while imprisoned by one of the most repressive regimes of the 20th century. This brilliant scientist crossed path with the CIA more than once — to our detriment.”

Benjamin R. Fisher — CIA History staff

“History certainly isn’t averse to irony. Seventy-plus years later, descendants of a device invented by the Soviet Union to eavesdrop on its Western enemies are being flogged in an internal catalog of a U.S. intelligence organization.”

Maurits Martijn — The Correspondent (December 2015)

Clara Rockmore & Leon Theremin. Rockmore was a classical violin prodigy and a virtuoso performer of the “Theremin”, the grandfather of all electronic musical instruments.

May 28 2018 — Once upon a time, the Russians relied for many years on a technology unknown to the Americans to spy on the US ambassador in Moscow. The device — known as “The thing” — was the brainchild of an extraordinary genius: Leon Theremin.

I have long suspected that “Microwave Spying” was still a tool on the shelf of the modern spies. In the aftermath of Snowden’s revelations, Der Spiegel published a catalogue of surveillance technologies used by the NSA and CIA to eavesdrop on foreign spies and diplomats.

And indeed, these documents show that the U.S. Intelligence is using products — with names like LOUDAUTO and ANGRYNEIGHBOR — against foreign embassies. Those devices are generally considered as direct successors of Leon Theremin’s brilliant invention. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

5G — Will European Countries Ban Huawei? [UPDATE — UK to fully ban Huawei from 5G Networks]

Posted on May 26, 2020 by L

“Perhaps, the most puzzling part of the [Belgian Intelligence Services] report is what it does not mention. Although most countries are extremely concerned about China investments in their Telecom infrastructure, the Belgian report is silent on this issue. Why, on earth, why?”

Intel Today (November 30 2018)

“The UK needs to take decision on the extent to which we are going to be comfortable with Chinese ownership of these technologies.”

MI6 chief Alex Younger (December 3 2018)

“Given the massive cybersecurity and national security risks, the only responsible decision is for Berlin to follow the Australian, New Zealand, and U.S. lead and ban Chinese providers from the German 5G network. In doing so, Europe’s strongest economy would send a crucial signal to the rest of the European Union members that are grappling with the same decision.”

Thorsten Benner — Director of the Global Public Policy Institute in Berlin (December 9 2018)

“Huawei shares with the Chinese state intimate and extensive knowledge of the foreign telecommunications systems it is involved with.”

General Michael Hayden — Former head of the U.S. National Security Agency

“If China would resort to putting Canadians to death to defend its corporate national champion, what might it do if the Chinese Communist Party had unfettered access to Canada’s vital communications networks?”

Richard Fadden — Head of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service spy agency from 2009 to 2013 (January 20 2019)

December 5 2018 — The United States, Australia and New Zealand have already blocked Huawei from building their new 5G networks on security grounds. On December 5, Britain’s BT Group said it would rip Huawei equipment from its core telecom network. Canada is also likely to ban Huawei and  it is reported that Japan is expected to ban government use of products made by Huawei and ZTE over cybersecurity concerns.

So, why on earth has Europe been silent on this critical issue for so long? What are they waiting for? I am afraid that it will all depend on Germany’s decision.

On March 26 2019,  the European Commission has recommended a set of operational steps and measures to ensure a high level of cybersecurity of 5G networks across the EU.

The Commission does not call for a European ban on global market leader Huawei, leaving it to EU countries to decide on national security grounds. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

Lockerbie – Three Decades of Lies: J’Accuse…! [Chapter II : The Usual Suspects]

Posted on May 25, 2020 by L

“I will never apologize for the United States of America, ever. I don’t care what the facts are.”

Vice President George H. W. Bush (August 7, 1988)

“The White House cover-up possibly forestalled timely impeachment proceedings against President Reagan and other officials.”

Independent counsel Lawrence Walsh

May 25 2020 – On November 8 1988, incumbent Vice President George H. W. Bush, the Republican nominee, defeated Democratic Massachusetts Governor Michael Dukakis. On January 20 1989, VP Bush became the 41st President of the United States. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →
