Het Ron
Paul Institute (for Peace and Prosperity) publiceerde afgelopen dinsdag een
artikel van Philip Giraldi, waarin deze uitlegt hoe de CIA al 70 jaar
lang de vinger in de internationale ‘opinepap’ houdt……
Als een
geheime dienst ‘fake news’ verspreidt, noemt men dit ‘desinformatie’,
wat in het geval van landen buiten de VS onder geheime acties valt. Geheime
acties om de publieke opinie te beïnvloeden, of ‘vijandige’
regeringen te destabiliseren en uiteindelijk ten val te brengen (neem
Venezuela, Honduras, Libie, Syrië en Oekraïne)
Lees dit
uitgebreide artikel over de smerige acties die de VS en dan m.n. haar
geheime diensten speelden en spelen in onze wereld……. Russiagate
is gebleken een FBI/Clinton leugen te zijn geweest, terwijl de CIA,
FBI en Clinton aangaven dat Rusland de boel had gemanipuleerd en
gehackt, precies zoals de CIA dat al 70 jaar lang doet*, samen met economische oorlogsvoering, beproefde VS methoden om haar macht te vestigen of te
verstevigen…….
Als je
de ongebreidelde agressie van de VS ziet de laatste 70 jaar, waarbij
‘maar liefst’ meer dan 22 miljoen mensen werden vermoord**, snap je
werkelijk niet waarom men in het westen en dan m.n politici, de
reguliere media en de financiële maffia, nog steeds achter deze
grootste terreurentiteit op aarde aanlopen……..

70
Years of Disinformation: How the CIA Funded Opinion Magazines in
Europe
written

When
an intelligence agency arranges to disseminated fake news it is
called “disinformation” and it is a subset of what is referred to
as covert action, basically secret operations run in a foreign
country to influence opinion or to disrupt the functioning of a
government or group that is considered to be hostile.
During
the Cold War, disinformation operations were run by many of the
leading players in both the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization and
in the opposition Warsaw
Pact.
Sometimes the activity and the sponsorship were clearly visible, as
when Radio Free Europe and Radio Moscow would exchange barbs about
just how bad daily life was in the opposition alliance. Sometimes,
however, it took the form of clandestinely placing stories in the
media that were clearly untrue but designed to shift public
perceptions of what was taking place in the world. The Vietnam War
provided a perfect proxy playing field, with stories emanating from
the US government and its supporters presenting a narrative of a
fight for democracy against totalitarianism while the Communist bloc
promoted a contrary tale of colonial and capitalist oppression of a
people striving to be free.
The
Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) inherited the mantle of covert
action operations as a legacy from its OSS predecessor, which had had
considerable success in conducting disinformation operations during
World War 2. But there was from the start considerable opposition to
continuing such programs as they were both expensive and subject to
devastating blowback when they were identified and exposed. In
Western Europe, powerful domestic communist parties were quick to
publicize US intelligence missteps, but nevertheless the ability to
manipulate the news and information media to place stories critical
of the Soviets and their allies led to major programs that funded
magazines and books while also seeking to acquire a cadre of
journalists that would produce pieces on demand proved too tempting
to ignore.
There
has been considerable ex post facto examination of the CIA’s use of
covert funding mechanisms including the Congress of Cultural Freedom
to fund writers and magazines in Europe, the best known of which
were The
Paris Review and Encounter out
of London. As there was a low intensity war going on against
communism, a conflict which many patriotic writers supported, funding
magazines and finding contributors to write appropriate material was
relatively easy and hardly challenged. Some senior editors knew or
strongly suspected where their funding was coming from while some did
not, but most didn’t ask any questions because then as now patrons
of literary magazines were in short supply. Many of the writers were
in the dark about the funding, but wrote what they did because of
their own personal political convictions. The CIA, seeking value for
money, would urge certain editorial lines but was not always very
aggressive in doing so as it sought to allow the process to play out
without too much interference.
Opinion
magazines were one thing, but penetrating the newspaper world was
quite a different story. It was easy to find a low or mid-level
journalist and pay him to write certain pieces, but the pathway to
actual publication was and is more complicated than that, going as it
does through several editorial levels before appearing in print. A
recent book cites
the belief that CIA had “an agent at a newspaper in every world
capital at least since 1977” who could be directed to post or kill
stories. While it is true that US Embassies and intelligence services
had considerable ability to place stories in capitals in Latin
America and parts of Asia, the record in Europe, where I worked, was
somewhat mixed. I knew of only one senior editor of a major European
newspaper who was considered to be an Agency resource, and even he
could not place fake
news as
he was answerable both to his editorial board and the conglomerate
that owned the paper. He also refused to take a salary from CIA,
which meant that his cooperation was voluntary and he could not be
directed.
CIA did indeed have a considerable number of
journalist “assets” in Europe but they were generally stringers
or mid-level and had only limited capability to actually shape the
news. They frequently wrote for publications that had little or no
impact. Indeed, one might reasonably ask whether the support of
literary magazines in the fifties and sixties which morphed into more
direct operations seeking journalist agents had any significant
impact at all in geopolitical terms or on the Cold War itself.
More
insidious was so-called Operation Mockingbird, which began in the
early 1950s and which more-or-less openly obtained the cooperation of
major American publications and news outlets to help fight communist
“subversion.” The activity was exposed by Seymour Hersh in 1975
and was further described by the Church Commission in 1976, after
which point CIA operations to influence opinion in the United States
became illegal and the use of American journalists as agents was also
generally prohibited. It was also learned that the Agency had been
working outside its founding charter to infiltrate student groups and
antiwar organizations under Operation Chaos, run by the CIA’s
controversial if not completely crazy counterintelligence Czar
James Jesus Angleton.
As
the wheel of government frequently ends up turning full circle, we
appear to be back in the age of disinformation, where the national
security agencies of the US government, including CIA, are now
suspected of peddling stories that are intended to influence opinion
in the United States and produce a political response. The
Steele Dossier on Donald Trump is
a perfect example, a report that surfaced through a deliberate series
of actions by then CIA Director John Brennan, and which was filled
with unverifiable innuendo intended to destroy the president-elect’s
reputation before he took office. It is undeniably a positive
development for all Americans who care about good governance that
Congress is now intending to investigate the dossier to determine who
ordered it, paid for it, and what it was intended to
achieve.
