Two Years Ago — The “STARGATE Project” : The CIA Psychic Spies [UPDATE — Infographics Show]

Posted on May 4, 2019 by L

“Our mission – that is, the mission for INSCOM Center Lane Program’s remote viewing project number 8404 – was to help find Buckley [William Francis Buckley, station chief for the CIA in Beirut Lebanon] before it was too late. The CIA officer was kidnapped on March 16, 1984. Our tasking arrived on March 20th. Over the next few weeks 12 remote viewing sessions were worked. The majority were performed by the two most experienced viewers in the unit at the time, Joe McMoneagle and Tom McNear. By the time Project 8404 was finished, a number of detailed remote viewing results of unknown accuracy were produced. Sadly, all this work was to no avail. Buckley was never rescued, and died in captivity on June 3 1985.”

Paul H. Smith — CIA ‘remote viewing’ Psychic 

The psychic program was initiated in 1975 when the CIA heard rumors that China and Russia were experimenting with psychics. The program continued for 20 years under 10 different code names . In an operation code-named Grill Flame, half a dozen psychics were remote-viewing the US hostages held in Iran. They were even consulted before the super-secret U.S. military raid that attempted to free the hostages in April 1980, which ended in disaster, when a plane and a helicopter collided.

January 29 2017 — The Stargate Project was the code name for a secret U.S. Army unit established in 1978 at Fort Meade, Maryland, by the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) and SRI International (a California contractor) to investigate the potential for psychic phenomena in military and domestic intelligence applications.

One Year Ago — Lockerbie Conviction To Be Reviewed by the SCCRC

Posted on May 3, 2019 by L

“The (SCCRC) commission has decided that it is in the interests of justice to accept the current application for a full review of his conviction.”

SCCRC chief executive Gerard Sinclair — May 3 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.”

Two Years Ago — The True Story of Dr A. Q. Khan’s Nuclear Black Market

Posted on May 3, 2019 by L

“Our accomplishments generally remain classified, but a few special ones are known to the world.”

CIA Director Mike Pompeo (April 13 2017)

“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)

“There have been only two kinds of CIA secret operations: the ones that are widely known to have failed—usually because of almost unbelievably crude errors—and the ones that are not yet widely known to have failed.”

Edward Luttwak

Dr A. Q. Khan

May 3 2017 — In his first public speech, CIA Director Mike Pompeo told his audience that one the CIA’s great successes was to shut down the A. Q. Khan’s nuclear network. Once more, this statement needs a bit of “Facts Checking”. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

Former CIA Jerry Chun Shing Lee — The Plot Thickens [UPDATE : Lee Pleads Guilty To Spying For China]

Posted on May 2, 2019 by L

“Some former officials who reviewed the evidence described the case against Mr. Lee as strong but circumstantial, not bulletproof. Some at the C.I.A. argued that officials were too quick to suspect a mole — especially a Chinese-American — when there were other explanations.”

New York Times

Jerry Chun Shing Lee (Right in blue tie) standing in front of  “Salvator Mundi” painting, attributed to Leonardo da Vinci (April 15 1452 – May 2 1519). The painting has not been seen in public since its sale for US $450.3 million (€401 million) at auction house Christie’s in New York in November 2017.

On January 15 2018, Jerry Lee — a former Central Intelligence Agency officer — was arrested at JFK airport. According to the charges, Mr. Jerry Lee illegally retained highly classified information. But the FBI suspects a bigger crime. The Bureau believes that Lee betrayed the identities of several CIA assets in China. Follow us on Twitter: @Intel_Today Continue reading →

Posted on April 30, 2019 by L

Russian Colonel Viktor Baranets

April 30 2019 — FSB officers have recently arrested Norwegian citizen Frode Berg on charges of espionage. But Norwegian authorities have caught a much “bigger fish”. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

One Year Ago — Forensic Science : FBI Bullet-Lead Technique Dead Wrong

Posted on April 29, 2019 by L

“For over thirty years, FBI experts testified about comparative bullet lead analysis (CBLA), a technique that was first used in the investigation into President Kennedy’s assassination. CBLA compares trace chemicals found in bullets at crime scenes with ammunition found in the possession of a suspect. (…) Although the FBI eventually ceased using CBLA, the Bureau’s conduct in first employing the technique and then defending it after it was challenged provides an insight into how forensic science sometimes works.”

Paul C. Giannelli

“We cannot afford to be misleading to a jury. We plan to discourage prosecutors from using our previous results in future prosecutions.”

Letter from Dwight E. Adams — then FBI lab Director — to FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III

Forensic Analysis: Weighing Bullet Lead Evidence assesses the scientific validity of CABL, finding that the FBI should use a different statistical analysis for the technique and that, given variations in bullet manufacturing processes, expert witnesses should make clear the very limited conclusions that CABL results can support. The report also recommends that the FBI take additional measures to ensure the validity of CABL results, which include improving documentation, publishing details, and improving on training and oversight.

April 29 2018 — Since the 1960s, testimony by representatives of the Federal Bureau of Investigation in thousands of criminal cases has relied on evidence from Compositional Analysis of Bullet Lead (CABL), a forensic technique that compares the elemental composition of bullets found at a crime scene to the elemental composition of bullets found in a suspect’s possession. Different from ballistics techniques that compare striations on the barrel of a gun to those on a recovered bullet, CABL is used when no gun is recovered or when bullets are too small or mangled to observe striations.

Two Years Ago — The New Chiquita Papers : “Records Identify Banana Executives who Bankrolled Terror in Colombia”

Posted on April 29, 2019 by L

“Even after outside attorneys warned in February 2003 that it must stop payments to the outlaw paramilitary organization, Chiquita continued to pay the AUC for another 16 months. Until that point, Chiquita’s strategy, set forth by senior executives in Cincinnati, was to just let them sue us, come after us.”

The Chiquita Papers collection — National Security Archive — George Washington University

April 29 2017 — Ten years ago, Chiquita Brands International became the first U.S.-based corporation convicted of violating a U.S. law against funding an international terrorist group: the paramilitary United Self-defense Forces of Colombia (AUC).  Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

Havana Syndrome — Dr Diane DiEuliis : “Neuro Science & Technology as Weapons”

Posted on April 29, 2019 by L

“We’re not saying it’s not an injury to the brain. It may be. We do know, for sure, that it’s an injury to the ear and that the brain is affected. (…) These tests that we did cannot be faked.”

Dr. Michael E. Hoffer — Lead author of the report

“We have measurable, quantifiable evidence that something really did happen to the patients. It’s not just hysteria.”

Dr. Carey Balaban

On September 7 2018, SMA (US Department of Defense Strategic Multilayer Assessment) hosted a speaker session presented by Dr. Michael Hoffer (University of Miami), Dr. James Giordano (Georgetown University), Dr. Carey Balaban (University of Pittsburgh), and Dr. Diane DiEuliis (National Defense University) as a part of its SMA General Speaker Series.

In part I of this series, I presented the conclusions of Dr Hoffer in a short documentary using both his PowerPoint slides and his presentation of these slides during the teleconference. In part II, you heard the conclusions of Dr. James Giordano (Georgetown University). In part III, we learned why Dr Carey D. Balaban (University of Pittsburgh) believes that the diplomats have been attacked by a neuro-weapon.

In the final post of this series, Dr Diane DiEuliis concludes the presentation by discussing how neuro-weapons present a diverse threat to a range of potential targets, and argues that neuro-weapons should be treated as “weapons of mass disruption.”

I hope that this series will make it clear that, whatever the cause,  these diplomats have suffered real injuries. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

CIA Declassified Soviet Jokes

Posted on April 28, 2019 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

Thank God, It is Sunday! The 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! Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →
