Posted on April 30, 2020 by L

“Men bileve not lyghtly hym whiche is knowen for a lyer.”

William Caxton —   English merchant, diplomat, and writer (c. 1422 – c. 1491)

“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.”

Former CIA Director Mike Pompeo — Texas A&M University (April 15, 2019)

Lockerbie — Was Megrahi a Libyan Intelligence Officer?

Posted on April 28, 2020 by L

“Abdelbaset al-Megrahi (1 April 1952 – 20 May 2012) was a Libyan who was head of security for Libyan Arab Airlines, director of the Centre for Strategic Studies in Tripoli, Libya, and an alleged Libyan intelligence officer.”

Abdelbaset al-Megrahi — Wikipedia

Mandela visiting Megrahi — aka the ‘Lockerbie bomber’ — in prison. Many thanks to John Ashston who took the picture.

April 28 2020 — At the start of a recent RT interview, Afshin Rattansi  refers to Abdelbaset al-Megrahi as a Libyan Intelligence Officer. In truth, there is not a shred of evidence that Megrahi was a Libyan Intelligence Officer. And yet, to my surprise, Aamer Anwar did not correct the statement from Afshin Rattansi.  Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

Happy Sunday! CIA Declassified Soviet Jokes. And a Story from Vladimir Putin

Posted on April 26, 2020 by L

“The CIA made a lot of mistakes during the Cold War but keeping a list of Soviet jokes was not one of them.”

Dr Gene Zubovich  — University of California Berkeley historian

“The US Embassy in Moscow would send in a ‘jokes cable,’ usually annually, listing some of the better jokes that they had picked up. At the end of year, they would do kind of an annual round-up, kind of a holiday gift if you will.”

Peter Clement — Deputy assistant director of CIA for Europe and Eurasia

“The story of Soviet humour isn’t an Orwellian nightmare of social atomisation and the crushing of the individual. It’s a fundamentally human story of survival and community.”

Jon Waterlow — It’s Only a Joke, Comrade! Humour, Trust and Everyday Life under Stalin

April 26 2020 — Thank God, It is Sunday! These jokes were part of a 13-million-page release of declassified CIA documents. The CIA waited 25 years to release these documents. One can never be too careful after all! In fairness to my Russian friends, I thought that I should let President Putin reply. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

One Year Ago — Bob Woodward : “Role Of Steele Dossier In Russia Probe Needs To Be Investigated” [UPDATE : All Steele/Orbis records were wiped out]

Posted on April 25, 2020 by L

“Had Orbis been given the opportunity to respond in a private session, the statements by the Primary Sub-Source would be put in a different light. The Primary Sub-Source’s debriefings by Orbis were meticulously documented and recorded.”

Counsel for Christopher Steele and Orbis Business Intelligence (December 10 2019)

Lawyer Hugh Tomlinson: “But none of these documents [mentioned in the rebuttal to the IG report] exist, so they have all been destroyed?”

Christopher Steele :“They no longer exist. That is my assertion, indeed my assertion under oath.”

British Court (March 18 2020)

“I think it was the CIA [John Brennan] pushing this, real intelligence experts looked at this and said no, this is not intelligence, this is garbage and they took it out. But in this process, the idea that they would include something like that in one of the great stellar intelligence assessments as Mueller also found out is highly questionable. Needs to be investigated.”

Bob Woodward (April 2019)

April 26 2019 — “Watergate” journalist Bob Woodward told this week’s edition of “Fox News Sunday” that the role the Steele dossier played in the origin of the Trump-Russia investigation is “highly questionable” and “needs to be investigated.” Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

Intel Today Under Attack — Why Do I Blog Anyway? [UPDATE]

Posted on April 24, 2020 by L

“All mistakes originate with people’s acting like experts thoroughly familiar with a subject, and looking down with an air of superiority on others.”

Yoshida Kenkō — Tsurezuregusa (ca. 1330)

April 23 2020 — Our blog is under serious attack. Over the years, I may perhaps have been right too many times and the recent confirmation of my old story on Crypto AG has surely upset a few people. So, I have reasons to fear that a decision to shut down this blogger may be under discussion. But, today, I will not talk about this threat. As this old man celebrates another birthday, I think I should reflect on a very simple question: Why do I blog anyway? Is it worth the troubles? Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

KRYPTOS — Analysis of Sanborn K3 Worksheet [A clue to decode K4?]

Posted on April 24, 2020 by L

“With trembling hands, I made a tiny breach in the upper left hand corner… widening the hole a little, I inserted the candle and peered in… at first I could see nothing, the hot air escaping from the chamber causing the candle to flicker. Presently, details of the room emerged slowly from the mist, strange animals, statues and gold – everywhere the glint of gold. For the moment – an eternity it must have seemed to the others standing by – I was struck dumb with amazement, and when Lord Carnarvon, unable to stand in suspense any longer, inquired anxiously ‘Can you see anything?’, it was all I could do to get out the words ‘Yes, wonderful things’.”

Howard Carter — The Tomb of Tutankhamen (Diary — November 26 1922)

April 24 2020 — Kryptos is a sculpture by the American artist Jim Sanborn located on the grounds of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in Langley, Virginia. Of the four parts of the message, the first three — known as K1, K2 and K3 — have been solved. However K4, the last part of the message, remains one of the most famous unsolved code in the world.  Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

Earth Day 2020 — CIA : “Climatological Research as it Pertains to Intelligence Problems”

Posted on April 22, 2020 by L

“For 250 years most of the world suffered major economic and political unrest which could be directly or indirectly attributed to the climate of the neo-boreal era. Another Little Ice Age would cause hundreds of millions of deaths around the world and cause massive social unrest.”

CIA REPORT 1974

“I was horrified by what I found. Global warming really has become a new religion. Because you cannot discuss it. It’s not proper. It is like the Catholic Church.”

Dr Ivar Giaever — 1973 Physics Nobel Prize (2015 Mainau Nobel Conference)

April 22 2020 — Today, the world celebrates the 50th anniversary of Earth Day! I thought I should take this opportunity to remind you that a 1974 Central Intelligence Agency report warned that “Earth’s climate is returning to that of the neo-boreal era… an era of drought, famine, and political unrest in the western world.” Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →
