15 Years Ago — “What a hornets’ nest I had stirred!” [Wikipedia edited by the CIA] (July 26/27 2007) — [UPDATE : Operation “On Wings of Eagles” (Disinformation)]

Posted on July 27, 2022 by L

“A nuclear scientist and reporter Ludwig De Braeckeleer suggested that intelligence agents may have been infiltrated Wikipedia to remove undesirable information from Wikipedia articles. The design and application of WikiScanner technology proved such suspicions to be well founded.”

Internet Brigades in Wikipedia — Wikipedia

July 27 2022 — On this day (July 26/27 2007) 15 years ago, OMNI (Ohmy News International) published a piece regarding suspicious edits made to certain articles on Wikipedia. As I was researching a piece on the Lockerbie tragedy, I noticed that some information regarding a Palestinian terrorist group had been erased. Upon closer inspection, I came to the conclusion that Intelligence Agencies were editing sensitive information on Wikipedia. I was not wrong.

75 Years Ago — President Truman Creates the Central Intelligence Agency (July 26 1947)

Posted on July 26, 2022 by L

“I think it has become necessary to take another look at the purpose and operations of our Central Intelligence Agency. (…) There is something about the way the CIA has been functioning that is casting a shadow over our historic position and I feel that we need to correct it.”

Harry Truman (December 22 1963)

July 26 2022 — On January 22 1946, President Harry S. Truman signed the directive establishing the National Intelligence Authority and the Central Intelligence Group. On July 26 1947, Truman signed the National Security Act which established the Central Intelligence Agency. By 1963, Truman admitted in writing that he was seriously “disturbed by the way the CIA has been diverted from its original assignment.” Follow us on Twitter: @Intel_Today

Remembering French Investigative Journalist Pierre Péan (March 5 1938 – July 25 2019) [UPDATE : From Lockerbie to Avianca 203 — The same fake ‘scientists’…]

Posted on July 25, 2022 by L

“It is striking to note the similarity of the ‘scientific’ evidence discovered by the FBI’s Tom Thurman in both the Lockerbie and UTA cases. Of the tens of thousands of pieces of debris collected at each disaster site, one lone piece of printed circuit was found and, miracle of miracles, in each case the fragment bore markings that allowed for positive identification: MEBO in the Lockerbie case and TY in the case of UTA Flight 772. Despite the common findings of the DCPJ, the DST and the Prefecture of Police crime laboratory, Judge Bruguière chose to believe Thurman, the expert in fabricating evidence.”

One Year Ago — Deadly Floods in Belgium & Germany — A Monumental Intelligence Failure? [UPDATE : Criminal Investigation to continue until 2024!]

Posted on July 21, 2022 by L

“The fact that people didn’t evacuate or get the warnings suggests that something is going wrong. If you’ve got some information about what risk you’re at and you can understand it, you can take action to protect yourself. These floods were huge. Probably they were like a fantasy or a kind of science-fiction movie for people.”

Hannah Cloke — Professor of hydrology at Reading University

July 20 2021 — Belgium and Germany knew that huge floods were coming. Yet, the early warnings were not passed to the population. Scientists believe that this ‘monumental failure of the system’ is directly to blame for the death of at least 200 people in Germany and Belgium. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY

On This Day — Remembering the crash of TWA 800 (July 17 1996) [UPDATE : Families file suit against government claiming TWA Flight 800 was destroyed ‘by an errant United States missile’]

Posted on July 18, 2022 by L

“The FBI didn’t want to hear about anything but a missile or a bomb, because otherwise there was no FBI case. Their conduct was disturbing from the very beginning.”

Chuck Grassley — Chairman of the Judiciary subcommittee on administrative oversight –Washington Post (May 9 1999)

July 17 2021 — Trans World Airlines Flight 800 (TWA 800) was a Boeing 747-100 which exploded and crashed into the Atlantic Ocean near East Moriches, New York, on July 17, 1996. On November 17 1997, the FBI formally ended its 16-month investigation into the crash of TWA flight 800. FBI agents concluded there was no evidence it was a criminal act. The similarities between the tragedies of Flight TWA 800 and Pan Am 103 are stunning. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_Today

On This Day — Remembering Dr David Kelly (May 14, 1944 – July 17, 2003)

Posted on July 17, 2022 by L

“It is no exaggeration to say that between 1990 and his death in 2003, Dr Kelly probably did more to make the world a more secure place than anyone on the planet. Even among the elite group of international weapons inspectors, he was regarded with some awe, as the inspectors’ inspector.”

Former MP Norman Baker

July 16 2021 — The death of Dr David Kelly in 2003 is one of the strangest events in recent British history. This scrupulous scientist — an expert on weapons of mass destruction — was caught up in the rush to war in Iraq. He felt under pressure from those around Tony Blair to provide evidence that Saddam Hussein was producing weapons of mass destruction. Dr Kelly seemed to have tipped into sudden depression when he was outed as a source for Andrew Gilligan. Follow us on Twitter: @Intel_Today

20 Years Ago — Kangaroo Zeist Court issues Infamous Lockerbie verdict (January 31 2001) [UPDATE : UK Supreme Court judges refuse permission to launch an appeal]

Posted on July 16, 2022 by L

“The disparity between historical reality and the description of history in books and newspapers can lead our youth only to lack of belief, to cynicism, whereas we need belief, but real belief can be based only on the truth.”

Russian poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko — Open Letter (New York Times – February 17 1974)

January 31 2021 — On January 31, 2001, a kangaroo Court in the Netherlands rendered its verdict. Although two Libyan citizens had been prosecuted for the ‘bombing’ conspiracy of Pan Am 103, the judges found one of them not guilty and sentenced the other one for murder. Go figure! Twenty years later, on January 15 2021, Lord Carloway — The Lord Justice General in the appeal — delivered the opinion of the Scottish Appeal Court. Without surprise to the readers of this blog, the Court upheld the guilty verdict of the trial court. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY

One Year Ago — Lockerbie : Why I ruled out the bomb theory [Technical Analysis of the Debris Lines]

Posted on July 9, 2022 by L

“I tend to the view that the disaster is due to mechanical failure. Although I keep an open mind, I have great doubts about the bomb theory.”

William Trench — Chief inspector of Air Accidents from 1974 to 1981 (December 27 1988)

No sound of an explosion is recorded. Only the sound of the break-up of the plane is recorded at a time perfectly consistent with the first (southern) debris line. Many seconds BEFORE the break-up of Pan Am 103, an unexplained Radar Return (black square) was recorded by TWO radar stations. And you can guess where it may have landed.

July 06 2021 — As I explained, there is ZERO evidence of a bomb having caused the tragedy of Pan Am 103. I have summarized all my research on this subject in a single graphic. I would argue that anyone who understands these data does not need to wait until at least 2026, and possibly much longer, to determine the real cause of the tragedy. It is plain obvious!

On This Day — Remembering Aerolinee Itavia Flight 870 (USTICA – June 27 1980)

Posted on June 27, 2022 by L

“We still hope the truth will come out. We know that very probably the plane was struck down by a missile. Too many people have been keeping this secret for too long but we will not give up until we know everything that happened.”

Daria Bonfietti

The remains of Itavia Airlines flight 870

June 27 2019 — When the passenger jet crashed, the immediate theory was that it was a tragic accident caused by some kind of mechanical or structural failure. Then, there was the suggestion that terrorists could have planted a bomb, but that theory was also rejected. And then, the truth came out. Follow us on Twitter: @Intel_Today

On This Day — U.S. President John F. Kennedy in West Berlin : “Ich bin ein Berliner” (June 26 1963)

Posted on June 26, 2022 by L

“Two thousand years ago, the proudest boast was ‘Civis Romanus Sum’. Today, in the world of freedom, the proudest boast is ‘Ich bin ein Berliner!’ … All free men, wherever they may live, are citizens of Berlin, and therefore, as a free man, I take pride in the words ‘Ich bin ein Berliner!'”

U.S. President John F. Kennedy in West Berlin

June 26 1963

Kennedy’s ‘Ich bin ein Berliner’ speech was watched by West Berliners

June 26 2022 — The speech is considered one of Kennedy’s best, both a notable moment of the Cold War and a high point of the New Frontier. It was a great morale boost for West Berliners, who lived in an enclave deep inside East Germany and feared a possible East German occupation. Follow us on Twitter: @INTEL_TODAY
