Former CIA Ray McGovern: “The ‘Russian Hack’ is an Inside Job.”

Posted on August 4, 2017 by L

“The purported ‘hack’ of the DNC by Guccifer 2.0 was not a hack, by Russia or anyone else. Rather it originated with a copy (onto an external storage device – a thumb drive, for example) by an insider. The data was leaked after being doctored with a cut-and-paste job to implicate Russia. We do not know who or what the murky Guccifer 2.0 is. You may wish to ask the FBI.”

MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT — VETERAN INTELLIGENCE PROFESSIONALS FOR SANITY

In January, the US Intel Community assessed that Russia “hacked” the Democratic emails during the 2016 presidential campaign. New forensic studies seriously challenge this claim. In a memo addressed to the President, a group of former U.S. intelligence officers, including NSA specialists, have concluded that the DNC data reached WikiLeaks via a copy/leak by a DNC insider.

One Year Ago — United Nations to probe whether SEC-GEN Hammarskjold was assassinated

Posted on August 4, 2017 by L

“It will be necessary to find some way of pulling Hammarskjold up short.”

UK Prime Minister Harold Macmillan (September 13  1961)

“Hammarskjöld was at the point of getting something done when they killed him. Notice that I said ‘when they killed him’.”

US President Harry Truman (September 19  1961)

“I continue to have a strong feeling that Hammarskjold’s death was not an accident.”

Richard Goldstone [*]

Hammarskjold

U.N. Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjöld

At the U.N. headquarters, few believe that the death of Dag Hammarskjöld was an accident. Many researchers have concluded that the former U.N. Secretary-General was assassinated by a South African paramilitary organization supported by the CIA and British intelligence and Belgian mercenaries. An official UN report should be released in this month. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

Seymour Hersh: “Russia Election Hack is a CIA Hoax”

Posted on August 3, 2017 by L

“I can tell you right now Brennan is an asshole. I have known all these people for years. Clapper is — sort of — a better guy but not a rocket scientist. The NSA guys are fucking morons. You know the trouble with all of those guys is that the only way they are going to make it to a board, or two, and get hired (…) to deliver some fat cat contracts is if Hillary stayed in.”

Seymour Hersh [Phone interview]

An extraordinary phone conversation with Seymour Hersh was leaked on internet. Assuming for the moment that the audio is genuine, the content is earth-shaking. Hersh alleges that Seth Rich stole the DNC/Podesta emails and passed them to WikiLeaks. Hersh also claims that the allegation of a Trump-Russia collusion is a disinformation operation organized by John Brennan, the former CIA Director.

One Year Ago — Hillary’s Email Reveals Truth about Libya Bombing: Oil and Golden Dinar

Posted on August 3, 2017 by L

“We were dragged along by a French enthusiasm to intervene, and the mission then moved from protecting people in Benghazi, who arguably were not at the kind of threat that was then being presented… Indeed, on the basis of the evidence we took, the threat to the people of Benghazi was grossly overstated.”

Crispin Blunt — chairman of the UK parliamentary committee

sarkoGada

A further insight into French motivations was provided in freedom of information disclosure by the United States State Department in December 2015.  Besides self-interests, Sarkozy’s plans were driven by a desire to gain a greater share of Libya oil production, as well as the fear that Gaddafi would establish a pan-African currency based on the Libyan golden Dinar, which was seen as a direct threat to France as the dominant power in Francophone Africa.

JULY 30 — US National Whistleblower Appreciation Day

Posted on August 2, 2017 by L

“Recognizing our Founding Fathers’ strong support for whistleblower is an essential first step in changing the workplace culture that holds whistleblowers in disdain and subjects them to illegal retaliation.”

Stephen M. Kohn — Executive Director of the National Whistleblower Center

“It’s sadly telling that last month National Whistleblower Appreciation Day came and went with little notice let alone the fanfare it deserved. Obviously, we still have a long way to go in showing our appreciation for this undervalued group.”

Gordon Schnell — The Hill

National Whistleblower Appreciation Day is an annual recognition of whistleblowers whose actions have protected the American people from fraud or malfeasance. In 2014, the U.S. Senate unanimously passed a resolution to mark July 30 as the commemorative day, being the 236th anniversary of the first American law to protect whistleblowers.

David Ignatius: “The CIA is entering a danger zone.”

Posted on August 1, 2017 by L

“If the ghosts who inhabit the walls of the CIA could talk, they would tell Director Mike Pompeo to be careful. The agency is entering a danger zone where a White House in turmoil wants the CIA to take aggressive action overseas but hasn’t developed the clear strategy or political support needed to sustain it.”

David Ignatius

CIA Director Mike Pompeo at the 2017 Aspen Security Forum

American journalist David R. Ignatius is best known for his writing based upon his interest in foreign affairs and his knowledge of intelligence operations.

The CIA Psychologists — A Letter from Annie Sparrow [UPDATE]

Posted on July 31, 2017 by L

“I think any normal, conscionable man would have to consider carefully doing something like this. I deliberated with great, soulful torment about this, and obviously I concluded that it could be done safely or I wouldn’t have done it.”

Dr John Bruce Jessen

“I will not allow it to become a political trial on ‘Did the then-Bush administration do wrong in its reaction to interrogation of detainees following 9/11 of ’01?’ That’s not what this trial is about. (…) The trial will focus on whether the plaintiffs were subjected to torture, and if so, did the defendants aid and abet — legally aid and abet and factually aid and abet — that torture?”

Judge Quackenbush

Drs. Jessen and Mitchell

The two psychologists who proposed interrogation techniques — widely viewed as torture — are part of a lawsuit filed on behalf of former C.I.A. detainees. Deposition videos, obtained exclusively by The New York Times, reveal new insights into the enhanced interrogation program and the CIA officials behind it.

One Year Ago — LIBYA: What is going on?

Posted on July 31, 2017 by L

“After the fall of the regime, Haftar’s ambition worried the new authorities. The inaction of Tripoli in this fight against extremist groups has given him more popularity. After three years of targeted assassinations of security forces, his operations against Islamist militia won him more support from army leaders who feel the central authorities have done very little to protect them and protect the country.”
