On This Day — Megrahi, Convicted in 1988 Lockerbie Bombing, Dies in Tripoli (May 20 2012)

Posted on May 20, 2019 by L

“Hans Köchler, a United Nations observer, called the trial ‘a spectacular miscarriage of justice,’ words echoed by Mr. Mandela. Many legal experts and investigative journalists challenged the evidence, calling Mr. Megrahi a scapegoat for a Libyan government long identified with terrorism.”

New York Times — May 20 2012

“The Myth surrounding Libya and Megrahi now quietly slides into history. Political Expedience rules over Truth.”

Richard C. Fuisz M.D. — Email to Intel Today (December 21 2018)

“I regard the Lockerbie verdict against Megrahi as a ‘Grand Monument to Human Stupidity’.  Indeed, the written opinion of the Lockerbie judges is a remarkable document that claims an ‘honoured place in the history of British miscarriages of justice.’ If the [SCCRC] Commission accepts the application for a full review, the infamous Zeist verdict doesn’t have a snowball’s chance in hell of surviving.”

INTEL TODAY — July 5 2017

May 20 2019 — The case against Megrahi is nonsense, utter nonsense. Despite its complexity, the absurdity of the Lockerbie case is rather obvious for anyone who is willing to approach this affair with an open mind. Here is a crash course. Follow us on Twitter: @Intel_Today Continue reading →

Spygate — Will Former CIA Director John Brennan Go to Prison? [UPDATE : Attorney General William Barr doubles down on spying claims]

Posted on May 20, 2019 by L

“Spying did occur [on the Trump campaign in 2016]. The question is whether it was adequately predicated. And I’m not suggesting that it wasn’t adequately predicated. But I need to explore that.”

US Attorney General William Barr (April 10 2019)

“The core of this conspiracy began with John Brennan and ends with John Brennan. This is very serious business and for the first time, I now believe that some of these guys [James Comey, John Brennan and James Clapper] are going to go to prison. (…) Brennan needs five lawyers.”

Former U.S. Attorney and Special Counsel Joe diGenova (May 15 2019)

“Either we need a new election or hang former CIA Director John Brennan for putting out disinformation.”

Former CIA operative Robert Baer — Newsweek (January 2017)

Two Years Ago — The Spies Who Fooled the World

Posted on May 19, 2019 by L

“I had the chance to fabricate something to topple the regime. I and my sons are proud of that, and we are proud that we were the reason to give Iraq the margin of democracy.”

Rafid Ahmed Alwan al-Janabi aka CURVEBALL

May 19 2017 — Six months before the invasion, the then Prime Minister Tony Blair warned the country about the threat posed by Saddam Hussein’s weapons of mass destruction (WMD). Much of the key intelligence used by Downing Street and the White House was based on “fabrication, wishful thinking and lies”. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

On This Day — My Friend Boards Flight BA 177 With A Bomb (May 18 1990)

Posted on May 18, 2019 by L

“This was not a prank. It was a serious experiment, and unfortunately it succeeded. Here, 18 months after Lockerbie, one can take an identical device through security. I find that very depressing.”

Dr Jim Swire

“The Myth surrounding Libya and Megrahi now quietly slides into history. Political Expedience rules over Truth.”

Richard C. Fuisz M.D. — Email to Intel Today (December 21 2018)

Dr Jim Swire

On May 18 1990, Dr Jim Swire boarded British Airways Flight 177, London’s Heathrow airport to New York’s JFK. Inside his luggage, Dr Swire had hidden a suspicious device. The good doctor had carried a fake bomb onto the aircraft as a demonstration of lax security. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

5G — Will European Countries Ban Huawei? [UPDATE — Netherlands : Intelligence service investigating Huawei espionage]

Posted on May 17, 2019 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 →

The CIA Book of Honor — Star 80 : Helge Philipp Boes

Posted on May 15, 2019 by L

“IN HONOR OF THOSE MEMBERS OF THE CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE SERVICE OF THEIR COUNTRY”

Memorial at the CIA Headquarters in Langley, Virginia

“Helge was everything a superior case officer should be: bright, energetic, and ever prepared to apply his skills where they were needed most.  He believed deeply in our mission of defending freedom.  And, in his all too brief time with us, he made powerful contributions to that cause. He was no stranger to Afghanistan and its dangers, having served there before and done outstanding work.  In fact, he was on the weapons training range yesterday preparing for yet another intelligence collection operation.  He died doing what he loved.”

Director of Central Intelligence George J. Tenet (February 6 2003)

May 15 2019 — Currently, there are 129 stars carved into the marble of the CIA Memorial Wall: 91 are unclassified. Who are those men and (11) women? When did they die? Why are they honoured by a star? Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

5G — NYT Journalist Lying Through His Teeth

Posted on May 13, 2019 by L

“The Russian network RT America aired the segment, titled ‘A Dangerous Experiment on Humanity,’ in covering what its guest experts call 5G’s dire health threats. U.S. intelligence agencies identified the network as a principal meddler in the 2016 presidential election. Now, it is linking 5G signals to brain cancer, infertility, autism, heart tumors and Alzheimer’s disease — claims that lack scientific support.”

William J. Broad — New York Times (May 12 2019)

Journalist William J. Broad just penned the worst “science piece” since the New York Times argued that a rocket could not reach the moon because there is no atmosphere to push against. The article is also a masterpiece of US propaganda. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

Posted on May 12, 2019 by L
