James Jesus Angleton: Beneath the Lie of “National Interests”

Posted on July 25, 2016 by L

“Deception is a state of mind and the mind of the State.”

James Jesus Angleton

“Was Angleton ever invited to address the only logical conclusion to his thesis, before alcohol and a last overdose of madness got the better of him – namely to close down the entire Western intelligence apparatus before the Russians led us over the cliff? I doubt it.”

John Le Carré

James Jesus Angleton

Paul Craig Roberts just told an amazing anecdote. James Jesus Angleton, head of CIA counterintelligence for three decades, once explained to him that “Intelligence Agencies create stories inside stories, each with its carefully constructed trail of evidence, in order to create false trails as diversions.”

In his Memoir “The Pigeon Tunnel”, John le Carré (AKA David Cornwell) describes James Jesus Angleton as a “delusional alcoholic”. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY Continue reading →

Posted on July 22, 2016 by L

CIA Plame-Wilson’s Memoir

Posted on July 21, 2016 by L

“It was a long journey – personally and professionally. At some times, it felt like I had fallen down Alice’s rabbit hole, where white is black and black is white. Very disorienting. The idea of the memoir was quite selfish – to take stock of the whirlwind my husband and I had just been through and to finally use my voice.”
