Posted on December 15, 2018 by L

“The issues are much too important for the Chilean voters to be left to decide for themselves.”

Posted on December 14, 2018 by L

“We found something very important to the focus of our mission, something threatening near the building.”

Mike Beck — Former NSA Officer

Former NSA officer Mike Beck

December 14 2017 — Mike Beck — a former US National Security Agency officer — believes that a weaponized microwave attack caused the Parkinson’s disease that is now slowly killing him 10 years later.

CIA Debacle in China — Former CIA Official : “We Buried the Truth”

Posted on December 14, 2018 by L

“Heads should roll because of this. Agents were killed. But to protect people’s careers and egos, we buried counterintelligence problems.”

MEDINT — James Bond Has a Severe Chronic Alcohol Problem

Posted on December 13, 2018 by L

“There is strong and consistent evidence that James Bond has a chronic alcohol consumption problem at the ‘severe’ end of the spectrum. He should seek professional help and try to find other strategies for managing occupational stress.”

Medical Journal of Australia (December 2018)

But a new study published in the Medical Journal of Australia casts a shadow on all this booze, saying Bond displayed “severe alcohol use disorder” over the course of six decades and 24 movies. No shit? Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →
