Khan Shaykhun — UN Report Paradoxical; Real Experts Needed

So, if it becomes clear that Al Qaeda tricked President Trump not only would he be responsible for violating international law and killing innocent people, but he and virtually the entire Western political establishment along with the major news media would look like Al Qaeda’s “useful idiots.”

The United Nations-sponsored report on the April 4 sarin incident in an Al Qaeda-controlled town in Syria blames Bashar al-Assad’s government for the atrocity. However, a carefull reading of its “Annex II” demonstrates that the conclusion is hardly facts-based. I have asked real military experts to comment on this UN report. Stay tuned!

Former Double Agent : “Self-destruction of humankind has been put back on the agenda”

“I believe that you will serve our common cause selflessly and courageously. I believe in the final victory over the treacherous enemy. This belief has given me strength. [The men and women of the SVR] must save the world in a situation when the danger of nuclear war and the resulting self-destruction of humankind again have been put on the agenda by irresponsible politicians.”

George Blake — Former KGB Double Agent

Libyan Nuke Program Was CIA-MI6 Sting Op

“We were very happy the [Libyan nuclear] files were destroyed.”

Senior intelligence official in Washington, D.C.

“Washington wanted the evidence collected in raids on the Tinners’ home and offices, including computer files, hard drives, disks and documents, to be destroyed in order to hide their own stupidity. They are responsible for the spread of this dangerous technology. You cannot stop it now.”

Swiss Investigator

“I am quite astonished. It’s very unusual to see people destroying documents like this. They should be put somewhere very safe. The real question is how many copies of these documents existed. If copies were made, where did they go. That’s the main issue.”

Former senior IAEA official

The GUARDIAN has just published a long and seriously disturbing piece: How Britain did Gaddafi’s dirty work. This long-read article contains so many errors — lies, perhaps — that you will need to read it many times to see them all! Much of the article is nonsense and, of course, it accepts wholly and unconditionally the theory of the Libyan responsibility for Lockerbie and UTA 772 without question.

Acts of War in Cyberspace — 2017

“One of the big problems we face with cyber is that it hasn’t really been discussed internationally about what is the acceptable use of cyber-powers, where the red lines are and what happens when those red lines are crossed.”

Sir John Sawers — Former chief of the British Secret Intelligence Service [MI6]

“This has the whiff of August 1945. [referring to the US cyber-attacks against Iran Nuclear facilities] Someone, probably a nation-state, just used a cyber weapon in a time of peace… to destroy what another nation could only describe as their critical infrastructure. That’s a big deal. That’s never happened before.”

General Michael Hayden — Former CIA/NSA Director

Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.) — the chairman of the US Armed Services Committee —  has said he believes Russia’s alleged interference in the 2016 presidential election amounted to an act of war. Most legal scholars disagree. What really defines an act of war in cyberspace? The US Military is currently working out its own definition. Follow us on Twitter: @Intel_Today Continue reading

Britain and US urged to release papers on Dag Hammarskjöld’s death

I also received information regarding an unauthenticated claim made by a Belgian pilot, “Beukels”, to Claude de Kemoularia in 1967 that Beukels shot down or otherwise forced SE-BDY to crash. In the course of my work, I was for the first time given access to the originals of De Kemoularia’s agendas, as well as many of his personal records, which appear to verify his meeting with “Beukels” and other mercenaries in 1967. I also reviewed De Kemoularia’s letters showing that he had gone to the French and Swedish authorities regarding Beukels’s claim much earlier than previously understood. However, without further information, I was not able to verify other aspects of the claim, including, most notably, the identity of “Beukels”.

Ex-CIA Director John Brennan: “Trump criticism a badge of honor.”

“CIA Director John Brennan seems to have concluded that with his patron/president gone, he (Brennan) will be “thrown under the bus,” as smart people say – and do – in Washington.  If the Trump administration folks are as vindictive as Brennan fears (and he has given them lot to be vindictive about), there is much to blame Brennan for, including serious crimes.”

Ray McGovern — Former CIA Analyst (January 12 2017)

Former CIA Director John Brennan says President Trump criticized him — as well as former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and former FBI Director James Comey — because the President was trying to delegitimize the intelligence community’s assessment of Russia.

German court rejects request to release Swiss suspected spy — [UPDATE-2]

“The scandal reaches new proportions when spies sign up informers in the finance administration, in order to spy on successful NRW [North Rhine-Westphalia ] tax investigators and play into the hands of people who make billions in profit at the expense of society. It’s hard to believe that such a spy thriller took place not on the screen but on our own doorstep.”

Former National Security Advisor Mike Flynn under FBI investigation for kidnapping plot

“Those present discussed sending Fethullah Gulen, a Muslim leader who Erdogan has accused of being behind a failed military coup to overthrow him, back to Turkey to face charges — possibly outside the legal US extradition system.”

Former CIA Director James Woolsey

Mike Flynn — the former National Security Adviser to President Donald Trump and his son, Mike Flynn Jr. — would have been paid up to $15 million for delivering Fethullah Gulen to the Turkish government, according to sources familiar with the investigation who spoke to the Wall Street Journal.

US Media Brand William Binney a “Crackpot” & “Conspiracy Theorist”

“Without Bill Binney, there would be no Ed Snowden.”

Edward Snowden

“You may wish to ask CIA Director Mike Pompeo what he knows about this. Our own lengthy intelligence community experience suggests that it is possible that neither former CIA Director John Brennan, nor the cyber-warriors who worked for him, have been completely candid with their new director regarding how this all went down.

Mr. President, we do not know if CIA’s Marble Framework, or tools like it, played some kind of role in the campaign to blame Russia for hacking the DNC. Nor do we know how candid the denizens of CIA’s Digital Innovation Directorate have been with you and with Director Pompeo. These are areas that might profit from early White House review.”

William Binney — Former NSA Technical Director for World Geopolitical & Military Analysis; Co-founder of NSA’s Signals Intelligence Automation Research Center

Binney

William Binney claims the U.S. intelligence community’s assessment that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election is false, and that the DNC e-mails were leaked by an insider instead. On October 24 2017,  Binney met with CIA Director Mike Pompeo for a one hour-long meeting. As the news of that meeting broke, the US media are calling Binney a conspiracy theorist. Make no mistakes. Binney is a great mind and a remarkable individual. Shame on the US media for attacking “A good American.” Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading
