Part 5 | The CIA School of Americas The Shadow Game: The Untold History Channel

➡ Sean Partain, from the Untold History Channel, talks about the CIA and its history. He discusses how the CIA had a big role during President Reagan’s time, especially in the war against drugs. He also mentions that Reagan might not have known about all the secret stuff the CIA was doing. Lastly, he talks about how the CIA’s actions have caused problems in many countries around the world.

➡ The Phoenix program was a plan during the Vietnam War to fight against the Vietcong, a group that was against the U.S. This program was known for being very violent and scary, with lots of torture and killing. The CIA, a big U.S. spy agency, was in charge of this program and used similar methods in other places like Latin America. This article also talks about how the CIA helped put in place some bad leaders in other countries who did things like drug trafficking and hurting their own people.

➡ Costa Rica is a peaceful and happy country because it doesn’t have an army. Instead, they use the money they would have spent on the military to make schools, hospitals, and safety programs better. However, the CIA used Costa Rica to move drugs into the United States. Also, other Central American countries have problems with violence and poverty, and some are involved in illegal activities like money laundering.

➡ The president of Honduras was arrested for drug trafficking, and there were many problems in El Salvador and Guatemala because of leaders who did bad things. The U.S. government knew about these bad things but didn’t do much until they were threatened with losing money. Many of the bad leaders were trained by a school in the U.S. called the SOA. This article also talks about how the U.S. government, especially people like Bush, were involved in secret activities and didn’t want the public to know about them.

➡ President Carter tried to make changes to the way the CIA worked, which upset George Bush. Carter stopped using CIA training manuals that taught bad things, and he stopped giving money to a bad leader in Nicaragua. This led to a big change in Nicaragua, and later caused a big scandal. Bush didn’t want Carter to be president again, so he ran for president himself, but lost to Ronald Reagan.

➡ A man named Ben Barnes, who was a big politician in Texas, says he was part of a secret plan to stop President Carter from being re-elected in 1980. The plan was to convince Iran not to release American hostages until after the election, hoping this would make Carter lose. This plan was led by William Casey, who was in charge of President Reagan’s campaign and later led the CIA. This secret plan is connected to other big events and scandals, like the Iran Contra scandal, where the U.S. secretly sold weapons to Iran and used the money to support rebels in Nicaragua.

➡ This article talks about how the U.S. government used fear to control people’s attention. It explains how they made Iran and groups like Hezbollah look like the bad guys to start a war on terror. The article also talks about a big event in 1983, when a building in Beirut was bombed, killing many people. It suggests that this event was used by the government to gain more control and power.

➡ This article talks about how important information was kept from military commanders, which led to the loss of many soldiers’ lives. It also discusses how the government set up a system to control all information related to national security. The article questions why, if we knew a certain country was responsible for harming our soldiers, we would still negotiate with them. Lastly, it mentions a big change in how the government collects information, which started after a major attack.

➡ The speaker is planning to have a meeting tomorrow at 3:00 p.m. Eastern time with Scott Bennett, Rob Cunningham, and Ghost. They will talk about how to get ready for a big event, both physically and emotionally. They might also discuss the French Revolution. The speaker wishes everyone a good night and will see them tomorrow.

Everybody, welcome to the Untold History Channel. My name is Sean Partain, and tonight we’re going to talk about everybody’s favorite topic, the CIA clowns in America. Yeah. Oh, it’s going to be fun. Got a lot of stuff to get into. So this is going back, was going back through some of my videos. I do that from time to time. And I saw where I had gone through a lot of the Ryan delarm stuff from the Badlands media, and I was like, you know what? I haven’t checked his substack in a while.

So I went through and I checked his substack and there’s a whole bunch of stuff in there. So I’m probably going to go through a few of his articles over the next. I don’t know if it’s going to be tonight. Obviously tonight, probably not tomorrow, because tomorrow we’ve got the preparation roundtable. And then, I don’t know, I may do Saturday or Sunday, I’m not sure. But certainly Monday, certainly Monday and maybe Wednesday because I think there’s probably enough material to go through about four days worth of stuff.

But anyway, without further ado, let’s get the party started. Let me just do a refresh on my screen here and make sure that I am showing up. Okay, good. All right. So if for some OD reason I hit mute, you all let me know so I don’t go on talking and jabbering my, flapping my gums without muting myself. I’m still embarrassed about that. But if you don’t know what I’m talking about, just go watch last night’s broadcast anyway.

All right, well, let’s share the screen. And like I said, let’s get the party started. So this is the called School of Assassins and Dictators. And this is by Joe Lang from September 13 of last year, 2023. All right here. And it’s like, this is a follow up to clowns in America, an introduction into the CD origins of the CIA. And I did put a link in the description to go back to the parts.

Well, I put one to part four, and then from there you can obviously go back to parts one, two, and three as well. But let’s see here. All right, so we’ve been fighting a never ending war on drugs since Nixon declared it back in 1971, and President Ronald Reagan emphasized it again back in 1982. We all remember the slogan that became popular and was pushed by first lady Nancy Reagan, just say no to drugs.

She toured the country visiting schools, trying to encourage kids to resist drug pushers. And it became a national movement at the time. It was a serious issue, and I believe the Reagans were very sincere in their willingness to battle the growing epidemic, according to today in history. The war on Drugs in 1971, the Nixon administration officially declared drugs as public enemy number one, a sentiment the FBI used with success.

The initiative was originally an element of criminal justice meant to rid people’s neighborhoods of drug dealers and users. Nationally, police departments established footings as tough on crime. However, when Reagan first won in 1980, his campaign took a law and order stance which carried over through his two terms. This stance meant a rapid expansion of federal power aimed at using law and force to stop drugs from entering the country.

He also initiated the phrase just say no, which still is used in the US dare program. I always loved Reagan’s optimism and never once doubted his love for this country and the american people. I believed he was trying to make a serious effort to curb the use of illegal drugs in this country, but it would be a failed effort. President Reagan was a patriot and an outsider, like both Trump and Kennedy.

Here is a portion of Qpost three 50 from December 14 of 2017. As a backup, they install only those on the team. As a backup, they blackmail those that aren’t. As a backup, they defined conspiracy as crazy, mentally unstable, and label anything true. As such, this works, given most of what they engage in is pure evil and simply unbelievable or hard to swallow. The fix has always been in no matter which party won the election.

JFK killed, Reagan shot. This was always the promise made to those who played the game, willingly or otherwise, I. E. They would never lose power. Power of the three letter agencies, power over the US military, worldwide dominance to push again against other nations and install like kind. These people are really stupid. President Kennedy was killed. More on that in a coming article. And President Reagan survived an attempted assassination that I believe was part of the CIA’s MkUltra program, which used drug induced mind control for assassinations.

Reagan was a patriot like Trump, but he was at a complete disadvantage in this war against the cabal back then, there were three main reasons for this. Reagan’s administration was completely infiltrated and controlled by CIA deep state puppets. Two, the patriots and the military were not in a position to take on the cabal at that time. And three, President Reagan had no clue who the real enemy was.

In my opinion, Reagan was completely ignorant of the hidden enemy controlling the world. He truly thought the real enemy of the world was communism. That’s what he committed to fight against during his presidency. The enemy from within knew that communism was Reagan’s. Main focus. So they used that commitment against him, the cold War, the shadow government, and battling communism as their excuse to start proxy wars in order to grow and maintain their global drug trafficking and money laundering operations, most of it covert operations that were hiding from the public and congressional oversight.

I don’t believe Reagan was in the loop on a lot of what was going on, and I will say that I agree with that. I don’t think that Reagan really knew, and I think that Bush had a much larger role as vice president than many people want to give him credit for. The shadow government would go into overdrive during Reagan’s administration. Vice President George H. W. Bush was behind it all.

I always wondered why Reagan would choose Bush as his vice president in the first place. I think it was a cabal trick. Does anybody remember those primaries way back in 1980? Do you remember Reagan losing the Iowa caucus? I would argue that Iowa might be one of the easiest primary states to manipulate. The loss triggered Reagan to do something that would affect his whole coming administration and give control to the enemy.

What was it? According to the Washington Post, Reagan’s new campaign chief. So far, so good. They have been telling jokes about William J. Casey behind his back during the first weeks of his managership of the Reagan presidential campaign. First, Casey misremembered the name of the campaign finance director. Then he misplaced the date of a key primary election. Finally, he canceled a series of airplane charters for Reagan without telling the press about it, leaving three network crews in Atlanta while Reagan campaigned triumphantly in South Carolina and Florida.

But three weeks after Reagan dramatically ousted campaign director John P. Sears during their mutual moment of triumph in the New Hampshire primary, Casey is very much in charge of Ronald Reagan’s campaign. Reagan replaced his campaign manager after losing Iowa and then winning New Hampshire. His new manager, William Casey, didn’t seem to have a lot of experience running a presidential campaign and got off to a rocky start. Who is William Casey? According to Wikipedia, during World War II, he worked for the Office of Strategic Services, where he became head of its secret intelligence branch in Europe.

He served in the United States Naval Reserve until December of 44 before remaining in his OSS position as a civilian until his resignation in September of 1945. As an officer, he attained the rank of lieutenant and was awarded the Bronze Star Medal for meritorious achievement. As a campaign manager of Ronald Reagan’s successful presidential campaign in 1980, Casey helped broker Reagan’s unlikely alliance with vice president, nomination or nominee George H.

W. Bush. He then served on the transition team. Following the election, William Casey was a member of the Office of Strategic Services, which was the precursor to the CIA. He was head of intelligence in Europe. He became Reagan’s campaign manager and then would convince Reagan to choose Bush as his vp. Before becoming Reagan’s choice to head the CIA. Bush and Casey were now in powerful positions in order to give the CIA control over Reagan’s administration and cement the shadow government control over the executive branch.

Reagan was surrounded by a den of vipers, and I don’t think he realized it. How do we know? There was a growing shadow government during the Reagan administration. It was already being built by Bush before he became Reagan’s vp. In my last article, I mentioned the Phoenix program in Vietnam, but I didn’t go into detail. It was a CIA assassination and torture program of civilians which agents or which went against the Geneva Convention.

The Phoenix program would be expanded by the CIA to other parts of the world and leave many countries trapped in perpetual poverty and chaos. Many of these countries, and strategically important, are strategically important for the CIA’s global drug trafficking operations. Remember when Bush had traveled to Vietnam in 1967, the same year the Phoenix program began? It wasn’t a coincidence. What was? The Phoenix program, according to war is boring.

The Phoenix program became the primary counterinsurgency operation against the Vietcong. Although Phoenix was ostensibly under military control, the Central Intelligence agency often directed operations on the ground. As is often the case with the CIA, counterinsurgency programs, either by design or circumstance. Phoenix quickly became notorious for allegations of widespread torture, summary executions, and indiscriminate killings. Though Phoenix was officially under the control of Cords and Mac V, the CIA provided much of the military training for the provincial reconnaissance units and oversaw interrogation centers.

The program quickly became notorious for the type of violence that would typify CIA operations and interrogation in Latin America and elsewhere in subsequent years. At times, it seemed that gathering information was secondary to inflicting terror and intimidating the Vietcong and local populace. Torture tactics employed under phoenix included rape, gang rape, rape using eels, snakes, or hard objects, and rape followed by murder, as well as more common techniques such as waterboarding, beatings with rubber hoses and whips, the use of dogs to maul prisoners, and electric shock rendered by attaching wires to the genitals or other sensitive parts of the body like the tongue.

The airplane was another common practice for this technique. A prisoner’s arms were tied behind the back and the rope, looped over a hook on the ceiling suspended the prisoner in midair, after which he or she was beaten. Don’t miss this important point. The program quickly became notorious for the type of violence that would typify CIA operations and interrogations in Latin America and elsewhere. Latin America? It’s worse than most people know.

For most of my life, I thought that some form of torture on bad guys was necessary in order to protect Americans. I’ve come to have a different view. What I found is that when the CIA is involved, there is a very clear pattern. The CIA installs brutal dictators in very strategic countries and then train their military and police to brutalize and terrorize their own populations so they can maintain control of the governments.

These dictators are not only unpopular and completely corrupt, but many are also involved in drug trafficking. The CIA was training vietnamese death squads and running torture prisons involved in the Phoenix program. The CIA then exported this training around the world. Have you ever heard of the School of Americas, or SOA? According to Wikipedia, the institute was founded in 1946. By 2000, more than 60,000 latin american military law enforcement and security personnel had attended the school.

The school was located in the Panama Canal Zone until its expulsion in 1984. The school is strongly associated with the dirty wars carried on or carried out by United States supported military juntas in South America, particularly in the 1970s and 80s. Many of its alumni served in repressive, undemocratic governments and engaged in human rights abuses such as torture and enforced disappearances. The counterinsurgency manuals that the school used for institutions were producing were produced during the Army’s Project X, established under the Foreign Intelligence Assistance Program in 1965 66, which relied on knowledge produced during the Central Intelligence Agency’s Phoenix program.

According to Major Joseph Blair, a former instructor at the school, the author of SOA and CAA, torture manuals drew from intelligence materials used during the Vietnam War that advocated assassination, torture, extortion, and other techniques. McSherry argues that the authors of the manuals believed that oversight, regulations and prohibitions applied only to United States personnel, not to foreign officers. Use of the manuals was suspended under President Jimmy Carter over the concerns about their correlation to human rights abuses.

Training manuals suspended under Carter were reintroduced into the school’s curriculum under the Reagan administration in 1982, Bush and the CIA had been training dictators within their military in Latin America using the same program they had used in Vietnam long before Reagan became president. Was it about fighting global communism? That was the big lie. Bush used fighting communism as the excuse during the Cold War in order to set up proxy governments in very important locations.

What country is the biggest cocaine producer in the world? Colombia. One of the places that Bush set up operations for his Zapata offshore drilling company was Medellin, Colombia. I talked about that in my last article. Here’s what’s interesting. Many of these countries where CIA dictators took control all play a strategic role in the cocaine trade flowing directly into the United States. Take a look at this map of Central America.

So obviously, you’ve got Colombia, Venezuela, Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, El Salvador, Guatemala, Belize, and then Mexico. And then look at the countries connecting Colombia to the United States. Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honda, Guatemala, Mexico. All of them either had rulers, members of their military, or police forces trained at the School of America. All of them were being controlled by the CIA. Yet the CIA did nothing to stop the flow of drugs into the United States.

In fact, the CIA was promoting it. I’m going to pause here and just check the chat real quick because got a lot of people in here. How you guys doing? On real special ed, CPA, deb, how you doing? Yarn. And safira, how you doing? And Jackie, let’s see. And digital hybrid, how you doing? And let’s see. Okay, I think I got everybody. All right. Does anybody remember Manuel Noriega? Do you know he is a graduate of the SOA? Again, according to Wikipedia, Manuel Antonio Norega Moreno was a panamanian dictator, politician, and military officer who was the de facto ruler of Panama from 1983 to 1989.

An authoritarian ruler who amused a personal fort, who amassed a personal fortune through drug trafficking operations. He had long standing ties to United States intelligence agencies before the United States invasion of Panama, removing him from power and alma mater. I guess this is Manuel Norrie alma Mater, Chorios military school and School of the Americas. Noriega’s mugshot. After his surrender to us forces in 1990, Bush, as president, invaded Panama and removed Noriega.

But why was Noriega removed and arrested by Bush, who had installed him into power in the first place? According to the Guardian, Noriega, who died on Monday at the age of 83, was right to be nervous. The October coup attempt marked a turning point in Washington’s attitude toward a man whose rise to power it had assisted, who became a valued CIA cold war asset and go between in Central America’s dirty wars, but who turned into a monster us spy bosses could no longer control.

Noriega had outlived his usefulness. Now he was an embarrassment, so Bush made him America’s most wanted. Human rights and security aside, Bush had plenty of personal reasons for wanting Noriega out of the way as CIA director and two term vice president to Ronald Reagan’s prior to 1988, Bush was implicated by association in often illegal covert interventions in the civil wars in El Salvador and Nicaragua. During this period, Noriega, who rose to head the panamanian security forces, became a highly paid informant and CIA asset.

Noriega helped the United States to combat cuban and thus soviet influence in the region. He acted as an intermediary with us backed Contra rebels fighting Daniel Noriega’s left wing sandinista government and with the salvadorian government and rebels death squads. Random killings and torture characterized these murderous conflicts. Noriega was also closely associated with the Colombia Medellin drug cartel of Pabla Escobar. Bush had trained and installed Noriega as dictator in Panama for the very purpose of being a conduit for cocaine trafficking.

Through the Medellin cartel, they were using panamanian airfields to fly weapons to the contras and drugs into the United States. More from the Guardian fronts from drug trafficking were used to buy arms, pay fighters, and suborn government officials. Noriega later claimed it was his refusal to help Lieutenant Colonel Oliver north provide arms for the Contra rebels in Nicaragua that triggered the US decision to drop him. North was the White House’s infamous covert operations and a central figure in the Iran Contra scandal that shook the Reagan presidency.

Noriega’s knowledge of U. S. Operations in Central America was detailed and highly compromising. He was said to have met Bush in person on more than one occasion. It is clear that each U. S. Government agency which had a relationship with Noriega turned a blind eye to his corruption and drug dealing. Noriega was allowed to establish the hemisphere’s first narco kleptocracy. The CIA didn’t turn a blind eye to Noriega’s drug trafficking.

They encouraged it. It was only when Congress was investigating the Iran Contra scandal that Noriega became a huge liability and he had to be removed. More from the Guardian. The court refused to allow Noriega’s defense to present any evidence relating to his work for the CIA, his payments from the United States government, his knowledge of U. S. Subversion in Central America, his contacts with senior figures such as Bush and their knowledge of his activities as Panama’s dictator.

His lawyers protested, but in vain. In many respects, the Miami proceedings resembled an east european show trial. With the outcome never in doubt. Bush got his man. Noriega was silenced. Nefarious U. S. Behavior in Central America was effectively concealed and the concept of justified, forcible regime change was fatefully reinforced. Noriega had been a big puppet for the CAA in the beginning, but then became a liability, so he was removed.

Number two, Costa Rica. Costa Rica is very interesting because they had outlawed their own military back in 1948, so they didn’t have any military trained at the SOA that the CIA controlled. Costa Rica did send some police forces to SOA for training, though. According to the USA Today, Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador are plagued by chronic poverty and violence that have sent a flood of refugees fleeing to the United States.

Panama has gained the unwanted title as the world capital for money laundering and corruption, and all of them, plus Nicaragua, face recurrent political upheaval. Yet amid this chaos, one central american neighbor remains an island of political stability, economic prosperity and contentment. And that’s Costa Rica. The country’s secret is something that virtually no other country in the world can claim, no standing army. It has used the savings from the defense spending to improve education, health care and a durable social safety net.

In 2018, Costa Rica will mark its 70th anniversary since it abolished its military, and that seems to suit the population. It ranked first in Latin America and 12th in world happiness, according to the 2017 World Happiness Index. The Happy Planet Index ranked it number one in the world. Costa Rica wasn’t completely controlled by the CIA like the other central american countries, but that didn’t mean the CIA wasn’t using Costa Rica to transport their drugs to the United States.

According to the New York Times. The United States ambassador to Costa Rica helped secure initial costa rican permission to build a secret airstrip for the nicaraguan rebels earlier this year and was deeply involved in overseeing its use, according to a senior government official in Central America, according to the United States government and nicaraguan rebel officials. The ambassador, Louis A. Tams, was, as well as other officials in the american embassy in Costa Rica, maintained close contact with others involved in a so called private supply network for the rebels that was set up by Lieutenant Colonel Oliver north of the White House National Security Council, a secret airstrip built to supply the Contra in Costa Rica, the same Contra rebels who were also trafficking drugs in the United States.

But that’s not all. More from the New York Times article. According to the costa rican records and Contra pilots, the airstrip was built by Udal Research, a Panama based company that has since been dissolved. The company was reported closely tied to other companies that administered secret swiss bank accounts for funneling profits from arms sales to Iran, and that also set up the COVID supply network. The network was revealed when a rebel plane was shot down over Nicaragua in October.

The companies appeared to have been overseen in part by retired Major General Richard v. Seacord, a key figure in the Iran Contra arms affair. Remember that name. General Richard C. Cord. He is going to play a major role in my next article that will focus on the Iran Contra scandal. The secret airstrip was built by a company called Udal Research that was dissolved. Why? It was a CIA front company that was directly tied to the Iran Contra scale and money laundering.

Why use a panamanian company? According to another New York Times article, a prominent panamanian lawyer appears to have played a key role in setting up three companies here that apparently served as financial vehicles in the supply network for the nicaraguan rebels. Mr. Kijano and two clerks in his office are listed as the principal officers of a third company, Udal Resources, which authorities in Costa Rica have said built a 7000 foot Runway in Costa Rica that american crew members on the rebel supply runs said had been used in the operation.

Panama is one of the leading financial centers in the world and, like Switzerland, regards strict secrecy as the basis for much of its appeal. More than 150,000 companies have been set up here by foreigners representing such diverse interests as major american corporations, the Central Intelligence Agency, the governments of Cuba and Nicaragua, at least a half a dozen organizations that support the nicaraguan rebels, as well as an unknown number of narcotics traffickers and wealthy Americans whose aim is to avoid paying taxes in the United States.

Panama was also the center of the money laundering operation for the CIA. Can you see why Noriega, who was a key puppet for the CIA, needed to be silenced when Iran contra scandal broke? Pause it here. Just real quick here. Just see here. How you doing, Patriot Dave and GV Mack. Let’s see. All right, so the CAE was fighting a proxy war in Nicaragua. Why? The Sandinistas had overthrown the dictator Anastasio Samosa Diballe.

I think I’m saying that right. So the CIA built up a rebel army called Contras to try and take back power. All I remember hearing at the time is how bad the Sandinisas were because they were the communists. But nobody talks about the dictator that they overthrew. Anastasio Somalisa d’Baye was part of a corrupt family that had ruled Nicaragua for generations. According to the Christian Science Monitor, the samosas, the father, then his elder son Luis, and finally Anastasio, became a family dynasty that ruled 43 years.

They dominated Nicaragua as if they were the personal fiftham, and in many ways it was. They owned large chunks of land. When General Samosa fled to exile, he personally controlled 22% of the agricultural land. They owned much of the businesses and industry of the country, including the national airline, two steamship companies, banks and insurance firms. The samosas were propped up in power by their 12,000 member national guard, which at the time, which was at one part soldier, which was at once part soldier, part bully boy when he came to power.

Upon Luis’s passing in 1967, Anastasio strengthened the hand of government in ways that made his father’s era look like a kindergarten exercise. National Guard brutality became notorious. Opponents were jailed and tortured. Through it all, General Samosa enjoyed a life of ostentatiousness while his people lived in poverty. His parties were lavish, his wine cellar enormous, his personal life, a series of women in excess. The corrupt Samosa dynasty controlled by our CIA, created the very oppression that would lead to the Sandinista’s rise to power.

A very important fact that seems to be lost in history. Honduras Honduras has been completely corrupt and a main link in the cocaine trafficking to the United States. From Colombia. They were a base for Contra rebels supplied by the CAA and a springboard for Contra drug trafficking. Our CIA trained their military for this purpose. According to third world traveler in Honduras, General Umberto Regalo Hernandez was trained at the SOA at the time or at the same time that he was linked to colombian drug cartels.

And the highest ranking officers in the honduran death squads were trained at SOA as well. That death squad that General Hernandez controlled was notorious. According to military Wiki Battalion 316 of Honduras was the name of a honduran army unit responsible for carrying out political assassinations and torture of suspected political opponents of the government during the 1980s. Battalion members receiving training and support from the United States sent to CIA both in Honduras and us military bases.

At least 19 Battalion 316 members were graduates from the School of the Americas. The CIA has a strong role in establishing, training and equipping financing Battalion 316. This group of graduates from SOA gave the CIA control over Honduras and has devastated that country. How bad is it? Headlines like these have filled the media ever since secret report Honduras new top cop helped cartel move coke by Christopher Sherman the honduran government was completely corrupt, but I want to encourage you, it’s a war and Trump is fighting the good fight.

Something happened recently that is a huge deal and I don’t think people realize how important it was. What was it? According to the New York Times, a New York jury convicted the brother of President Honduras, the president of Honduras, on cocaine trafficking charges on Friday, ending a trial that offered a blueprint for the way drug money penetrated the highest levels of honduran politics. To buy protection and immunity since his brother’s arrest last year.

A central question facing Honduras is how President Juan Orlando Hernandez could proclaim to be fighting drug traffickers while his brother was under investigation for allegedly running tons of cocaine to the United States. This happened in 2019 while Trump was president. He is waging war globally. The honduran president’s brother was convicted and given a life sentence that then led to this huge story, according to NPR in oh, I’m not even going to try to say that.

Well, maybe I will. Tegu Kigalapa yeah. Okay, so I butchered it. Honduras city. It’s a city in Honduras. Police arrest former honduran president Juan Orlando Hernandez at his home on Tuesday following a request by the United States government for his extradition on drug trafficking and weapons charges. The arrest came less than three weeks after Hernandez left office and followed years of allegations by U. S. Prosecutors for his alleged links to drug traffickers.

The president of Honduras was arrested for drug trafficking after his brother had been convicted. It’s war, and Trump is going to hold these leaders who traffick drugs responsible. El Salvador we were openly fighting a proxy war in El Salvador during the Reagan administration. The government that our CIA had installed was another brutal dictatorship, and we were fighting rebels who were trying to overthrow the corrupt government. El Salvador is one of the worst examples of the CIA phoenix program that was now being used in Central America.

Bush was at the center of it all. According to Third World traveler, graduates of the SOA have been among the most repressive tyrants in Latin America, and their actions have been some of the most cruel and violent in El Salvador. In 1989, a salvadorian army patrol executed six jesuit priests as they lay face down on the ground at Central America University. According to the United Nations Truth Commission report on El Salvador in 90, 319 of the 27 officers who took part in the executions were trained at the SOA.

In 1990. El Salvador in El Salvador, populist archbishop Oscar Romero was assassinated. Three quarters of the salvadorian officers implicated in the killings were trained at the SOA. Roberto de Abuison, the late leader of El Salvador’s death squad, was implicated in the plot to assassinate archbishop Romero. He also participated in the numerous murders, including a massacre in the village of El Mazote where more than 900 women, men, women and children were killed.

He graduated from the SOA as well. Roberto de Abuison was the leader of these death squads and had direct ties to Bush. According to the Washington Post, between 1979 and 1985, some 40,000 people were murdered by right wing death squads in El Salvador. Roberto Dewis, who died Thursday of cancer, was the most notorious symbol of those death squads, the offspring of a bloody alliance between far right military forces or officers and one of the hemisphere’s most reactionary oligarchs.

The Abuisan thrived because american leaders who feared a communist takeover in El Salvador deliberately turned a blind eye to the use of state sanctioned terrorism against the marxist guerrillas, their supporters, and suspected sympathizers. The responsibility for this policy began with President Reagan and included Vice President Bush and UN ambassador Gene Kirkpatrick, together with Senator Jesse Helms and Lieutenant Colonel Oliver north at the time, and obscure aid on the National Security Council.

Yet only when U. S. Public outrage at the bloodshed threatened to move Congress to cut off aid El Salvador, and did the Reagan administration finally take the first step against the abusen and his network. It’s always been about the money the only time that Bush and his shadow government cared about the mass murders was when Congress threatened to cut off the money to El Salvador. Why was the american public outraged? Three american nuns had also been raped and murdered by these death squads.

Bush was forced to do something. What did he do? More from the Washington Post article. On December 11, 1983, Vice President Bush met with Alvaro Magana, el Salvador’s provisional president, and told him that unless the right wing slaughter stopped, us aid would be jeopardized. According to a senior participant in the meeting, north, accompanying Bush, slipped Magana a piece of paper with no letterhead or watermark to make it traceable.

The paper had the names of eight military officers and one civilian, all close to the abuse and associates identified as death squad leaders. None was ever brought to trial, but all either went into gilded exile or dropped out of sight. The death squad killings dropped sharply. While Bush did not directly face down the death squads, as he claimed in his 1988 presidential campaign, the meeting showed two things very clearly.

First, the United States knew who the killers were. And second, the real pressure was finally brought to bear. The killings could be slowed, if not stopped. Bush went to warn president of El Salvador that the money from Congress was in jeopardy. So they sent the murderers into gilded exile. The money was the most important thing, not the 40,000 or more people who were murdered at the hands of the people trained by the CIA.

Guatemala Guatemala may have suffered the most of all the central american countries at the hands of the SOA. According to third World traveler in Guatemala, a country of 10 million people, the indigenous mayan population of 6 million have endured the greatest suffering in Latin America during more than 30 years of civil war tens of thousands have been slaughtered, with a total killed estimated to exceed 200,000. Most of the ranking generals involved in the numerous coups and acts of terror murdered during this period were trained at the SOA.

In the 1970s and early eighty s in Guatemala, thousands of political activists and opponents of government policies were assassinated. General Emmanuel Antonio Cayas, chief of army intelligence at the time, was cited by the United nations as the individual responsible for most of the murders. He graduated from the SOA. One of the most vicious tyrants in recent guatemalan history is Jose Efron Rios month. General, dictator, and a former president from 1982 to 83.

Rios month was proud of his political philosophy of beans for the obedient and bullets for the rest. He was also a graduate of the SOA. I would like to share something personal. I’ve been to Guatemala and I’ve met some of these indigenous mayan people. I went with a group from my church to build two houses for a couple of families in need. Simple little houses. It had a huge impact on my life because many of these people are literally dirt poor, but still were the happiest people I’ve ever met.

This genocide still deeply affects these wonderful people who are trapped in poverty and have no power to change things. It’s a sad history throughout Central America that has been plagued by the CA and a shadow government set up by Bush. Did you notice that many of these corrupt countries in Central America have connections to the Iran Contra scandal in the same way? Coincidence? In my next article, I will dive deep into Iran Contra scandal that will reveal Bush’s shadowy government and lead the US.

And lead us to massive money laundering and connections to Hezbollah. I will also go into the bush ties to drug traffickers in Colombia and, ah, our good old buddy, Mr. George Bush. Everybody loves that guy. Sad. Very sad. Let’s see. Check the chat here. Um, well, I’m just looking here at the Q is saying 20% public and 80% covert. Well, that’s what he did say. It’ll be more than that, though.

It’ll be 40% public and 60% covert. Let’s see. All right. The shadow game. Pawns meant to be sacrificed from October the fourth of 2023. Obviously you can’t handle the truth. This is a follow up to clowns in America and school of assassins and dictators. An introduction into the city origins of the CIA. Shall we play a game? Post 4794. Some believe the protection of agency is what matters most.

Some believe the declassification, public exposure of truth, and rebuilding of agency is what matters most. Apply same to FBI. Apply same to state. Any attempt to buck the system, no matter the severity of crime, and they will fight back. Self preservation Shadow game prevent public exposure of truth why this Q post is talking about the CIA? The link is about the CIA doing everything they can to prevent the public exposure of their treason through declassification of the evidence.

Self preservation. Self preservation is the most important thing to the CIA. They will do whatever it takes to prevent public exposure of truth. Buck the system. The CIA will not tolerate any attempts by anybody to buck the system that they have set up to control things or set up to control things. What is the shadow game? To the global cabal of elites, everything is just a game. They don’t value human life at all.

Wealth and power are all that matter to them. The CIA is often referred to by Q as the Shadow agency. They have been engaged in a shadow game. The CIA is often referred to as Q by a shadow. So they have been engaged in a shadow game of war to create a shadow government that controls the entire country in order to control the world. All of it is outside of constitutional restrictions.

George H. W. Bush was at the center of it all. But this shadow government that Bush was creating when he became head of the CIA back in 1976 was about to face someone who would try to buck the system. Who was it? The answer may surprise you. This person is the very reason that Iran Contra would become a scandal and expose the shadow government. This person who tried to buck the system was President Jimmy Carter.

Carter had done several things that were directly against the shadow government Bush was creating. I don’t think anybody remembers them. What is the first thing that Carter did? According to the Intercept, Bush only lasted a year as CA director. Ford, who ended up choosing Bob Dole as his running mate, was defeated by Jimmy Carter in the 1976 election. Bush tried to convince Carter to keep him on SCAA director, but Carter’s vice president was Walter Mondale, who had been a leading member of the church committee and had already won a commitment from Carter to try to implement many of the committee’s recommendations for reforming the intelligence community.

Carter refused to keep Bush on as head of the CIA. That was a big blow to Bush, and I really don’t think he expected it. What else did Carter do? He ended the use of the CIA training manuals of the School of Americas that taught assassination and torture of civilians because it went against human civil rights. I talked about that in my last article. What was the third thing Carter did that went against the shadow government? It was something that directly led to Iran Contra scandal.

He cut off funding for the Samosa regime in Nicaragua because of its human rights violations. This was a huge deal. This weakened and helped to topple the Samosa dictatorship controlled by the CIA. That’s how the Sandinistas were able to take control of Nicaragua. This would lead to the Iran contra operation designed to fund and arm a rebel army to take back power. Carter was trying to buck the system and used the power of the presidency to do it.

Bush couldn’t let Carter win a second term. That would derail or at least hamper the shadow government and global drug trafficking operations he had worked hard to establish over the last several decades. Bush decided to run for president himself. He clearly wasn’t popular and lost the nomination to Ronald Reagan, who was tricked into choosing Bush as his running mate. I talked about that in my last article, too.

As Reagan’s vice president, candidate Bush would be in a position to enrich the shadow government permanently. How could Bush ensure that Carter would lose the election? The iranian revolution became a perfect opportunity. When the Shah of Iran was overthrown and the Americas were taken hostage, it made President Carter look weak on the national stage. Bush would use this to his advantage. But let’s go back in history. First, the iranian revolution government that overthrew the Shah of Iran was now portrayed as a new enemy.

But similar to the story in Nicaragua, nobody ever talks about the evil dictator that was removed by the revolution. It’s all the same CIA pattern. Have you ever heard of the savak? What is it? According to the AP News, the SAVAK, a farsi acronym for the Organization of Intelligence and Security of the nation, was formed in 1957. The agency, created with the help of the CIA and Israelis.

Mossad initially targeted communists and leftists in the wake of the 1953 CIA backed coup that overthrew elected prime minister Mohammed Mozadek. Over time, however, its scope was widened drastically. Torture became widespread, as shown in the museum’s exhibits. Can you see the pattern? According to the international business news, SAVAK basically served as an intelligence agency with unlimited police powers and a very effective deterrent to any opposition to the shah.

Officers of the organization could spy on or arrest almost anybody at will and frequently used torture to gain information or to simply intimidate the populace. SAVAK’s presence deepened in the 1960s and arrested, tortured, and killed untold thousands of Iranians. Anyone who was perceived to be a threat to the Shah’s one party rule in the eyes of the iranian public, and especially to those who engaged in the 1979 revolution that finally toppled the shah from the throne, SAVAK was viewed as inseparable from western interference in Iran’s affairs and the Tehran’s government’s repressive control.

The CIA overthrew the elected leader of Iran in a coup and then installed their puppet, the Shah. The CIA then helped train the SAVAK. This intelligence and security force for the Shah over time became known for widespread torture. It sure sounds a lot like the Phoenix program in Vietnam and the training given to latin american dictators of the school of Americas. But why did the CIA want to remove the elected leader of Iran in order to replace him with the shah? What was the one thing that made him a threat? According to Wikipedia, after the 1953 iranian coup d’eta, the United States and the United Kingdom removed Mohammed Mozadek, who was originally focused on nationalizing Iran’s oil industry.

Nationalizing Iran’s oil industry any elected leader who goes against the cabal is going to be removed and replaced. When you try to remove the cabal controlled corporations who own your country’s resources, you become a threat. The CIA removed him in a coup and installed a dictator puppet who then controlled his population by terrorizing them. The Bush family has long standing ties to the oil industry and so did the CIA.

It’s not a coincidence. More on the oil company connections in coming articles. Guess who had a hand in training SaVak? More from Wikipedia a us army colonel working for the CIA was sent to Persia in September of 1953 to work with General Timor Bakhtar, who was appointed military governor of Tehran in December 1953 and immediately began to assemble the nucleus of a new intelligence organization. In March 1955, the army colonel was replaced with a more permanent team of five career CIA officers, including specialists in covert operations, intelligence analysts, and counterintelligence, including Major General Herbert Norman Schwarzkoff, who trained virtually all of the first generation of SAVAK personnel.

Does that name sound familiar? Are you surprised to hear Major General Herbert Norman Schwarzkoff was training the iranian intelligence agency that was killing and torturing its own population? This was the father of General Norman Schwarzkoff Jr. Who years later would be called upon by Bush to lead Desert shield and Desert storm in order to protect Saudi Arabia from Saddam Hussein and remove his invading forces from Kuwait. Coincidence? General Norman Sheriffkos Jr.

Also played a part in the invasions of Grenada under Reagan and Panama. Under Bush, to remove Manuel Norega, he rose to the top of the United States military under George H. W. Bush. His family were members of the club shadow government. If you play the cabal game, you get promoted to a position of power and become a more valuable puppet. As Q said in post 350, this was always the promise made to those who played the game, willingly or otherwise, I.

E. They would never lose power. Power of the three letter agencies, power of the US military, worldwide dominance to push agendas or push against other nations and installed like kind. The Shah of Iran was a CIA puppet and the SAVAK was trained to terrorize the population in order to maintain control of the oil supply. The iranian revolution removed the CIA dictator and just like what happened in Nicaragua when the Sandinius has ousted Samosa, this is the important backdrop of the Iran contra scandal that seems to be forgotten.

Our history is never the full truth. So how was Bush going to prevent Carter from winning reelection? Hostages and the October surprise when the Iranians took control of the american embassy and took hostages, and after overthrowing the shah in 1979, it created a narrative that the CIA and Bush would exploit. Carter looked weak on the international stage in what was becoming a more dangerous world. That was the narrative constantly portrayed in the media.

The CIA controlled media were literally keeping track of the number of days the hostages were held captive. But unbeknownst to most people, Carter was in the process of negotiating a release of the hostages. He was hoping that the big story would propel him to victory in his re election, and most likely it would have. Bush knew about the negotiations and couldn’t let that happen. George H. W. Bush’s ties to Iran the very first Bush and CIA ties to the current iranian government happened way back in 1980.

This would be the beginning of a relationship that would build the iranian government, along with Hezbollah, into the threat they are today, according to the New York Times. New reports say 1980 Reagan campaign tied to delay hostages release the fate of the hostages was a pivotal issue in the 1980 election. They were taken prisoner when followers of Ayatollah Kameni, the founder of the Iran’s revolutionary government, seized the United States embassy in Tehran in November 79.

A military operation to rescue them failed in the iranian desert in April of 1980. The Carter administration hoped that it might obtain their release either through negotiations or a second rescue mission before election day. And Reagan campaign officials were concerned that the return of the hostages could swing the election to Mr. Carter. The allegations that were meeting between Mr. Casey, Mr. Reagan’s campaign chairman, who went on to be the director of Central Intelligence, and Tolazlam Medi Karubi, a representative of Itola Rula Kameni, has been reported for the first time by Mr.

Sick. Mr. Sick said he has become convinced that there were two meetings between Mr. Casey and Caribou in the Ritz Harleton in Madrid in late July of 1980. Caribou is now the speaker of the iranian parliament. Mr. Six principal source for the Madrid meetings is Jasmine, an iranian arms dealer who said he and his brother Cyrus had helped arrange them. Attending, they said, were Mr. Casey, the Hashemi brothers, and an unnamed american intelligence officer.

Gary Sick was a Middle east specialist and White House staffer in the Carter administration. He wrote a book in 1991 titled October Surprise after discovering evidence of William Casey making a deal with the Iranians to prevent the release of the hostages before the election, thus preventing the reelection of Carter. Is there any other corroborating evidence to the secret deal made by Bush and Casey? According to the New York Times, a clandestine trip and four decade secret an untold story behind Jimmy Carter’s defeat nearly 43 years later, a prominent texan politician said he was unwitting part of a mission to sabotage President Carter’s campaign.

It had been more than four decades, but Ben Barnes said he remembers it vividly. His longtime political mentor invited him on a mission to the Middle east. What Mr. Barnes said he did not realize until later was that the real purpose of the mission, to sabotage the reelection campaign of the president of the United States. It was 1980, and Jimmy Carter was in the White House, bedeviled by a hostage crisis in Iran that had paralyzed his presidency and hampered his efforts to win a second term.

Mr. Carter’s best chance for victory was to free the 52 Americans held captive before election day. What happened next, Mr. Barnes had largely kept secret for nearly 43 years. Mr. Connolly, he said, took him to one Middle east capital after another that summer, meeting with a host of regional leaders to deliver a blunt message to be passed to Iran. Don’t release the hostages before the election. Mr. Reagan will win and give you a better deal.

Then, shortly after returning home, Mr. Barnes said, Mr. Connelly reported to William J. Casey, the chairman of Mr. Reagan’s campaign and later director of Central Intelligence Agency, briefing him about the trip in an airport lounge. Mr. Barnes had made this tour in the Middle east with John Connolly on behalf of Bush and Casey. Connolly was a close associate of President Lyndon B. Johnson and had also been governor of Texas.

He was writing in the limousine when Kennedy was assassinated. Interesting, very interesting. This trip to the Middle east was meant to open the door to a possible deal with Iran. It led to the meetings that Casey would have later with the iranian representatives in Madrid. Is there evidence that Barnes is telling the truth? More from the New York Times records at the Lyndon Baines Johnson Library and museum confirm part of Mr.

Barnes story. An itinerary found this past week from Mr. Connolly’s files indicated that he did in fact leave Houston on July 18, 1980, for a trip that would take him to Jordan, Syria, eleven, on Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Israel. Before returning to Houston on August 11, Mr. Barnes was listed as accompanying him. Connolly had been sent on a mission to the Middle east to get the word out to Iran that the Reagan administration would give Iran a better deal than Carter, so they should wait to release the hostages.

But what was the deal? More from that New York Times article. The term October surprise was originally used by the Reagan camp to describe its fears that Mr. Carter would manipulate the hostage crisis to affect a release just before the election. To forestall such a scenario, Mr. Casey was alleged to have met with representatives of Iran in July and August of 1980 in Madrid, leading to a deal supposedly finalized in Paris in October, in which future Reagan administration would ship arms to Chahran through Israel in exchange for the hostages being held until after the election.

This is important to understand. This was a separate deal from the Iran Contra scandal. The first deal made to ship arms to Iran happened in 1980, and it wasn’t to free hostages, it was to delay freeing hostages. Bush and Casey now had a working relationship with Iran. The Iranians took the deal and held the hostages until after the election. They released them on the very day Reagan was inaugurated, only minutes after he had concluded his inaugural address.

Coincidence? The newfound relationship between Iran and a shadow government within the Reagan administration would later lead to Iran Contra scandal that would fill the headlines for several years. Who was the Iran contra operation? Or what was the Contra operation? What was it really about? Fighting communism? The shadow government controlled by the CAA have always controlled the narrative of this story. They have constantly told us that it was an operation to combat communism.

Nicaragua. While the entire media focused on whether or not it was legal to arm the Contras in order to fight communism, they completely ignored the real reason we were fighting this proxy war. It was a red herring argument. Nicaragua was an important stop along the Cocaine trail from Colombia to the United States. The Sandinistas had removed the corrupt CIA controlled Samosa regime, and the disruption of a drug flow was something the CIA could not let stand.

The CIA began to raise an army of rebels to overthrow the Sandinista government. Another secret war similar to Laos. The only difference is Congress wasn’t going to let us get into another Vietnam war. Congress had outlawed the use of taxpayer money to arm the Contras with the Boland amendment because they feared an escalation after Congress found out the CIA had mined nicaraguan harbors. They cut off all funding of any kind with the Second Boland Amendment and forbid any government agency, including the CIA, from aiding the Contras in any way.

It was illegal to sell weapons to the Contra rebels, but the law has never been a hindrance to the CIA. It’s more like a minor obstacle for them to overcome. Bush and the shadow government were already arming the Contras and training the rebel soldiers way back in 1981 without consent from Congress. After Congress cut off the funding, they needed to come up with a new funding source. The funding was officially cut off by the Boland amendment in 1984, which would trigger Bush to try and divert funding to the Contras through other means.

That’s where Iran came in. Iran was now in a war with Iraq, who the CIA was helping with intel and weapons. Iran needed advanced weapons, and Bush was more than willing to let them to sell them some. Sell them some. Our CIA was helping both sides in that war. Why? Because war is great moneymaker for the cabal. And keeping us at war with each other prevents us from recognizing the real hidden enemy controlling the world.

The cabal always uses or always funds both sides of war. This war would lead to Iran Gate. And I will say that this is actually a big deal, that if the CIA was funding Iran, we also were the ones who gave the anthrax to Iraq. That’s why they had it. That’s why the military prior to 1991, when we went in in Desert Storm, that’s why they gave all the military guys those shots and what those shots called for.

I don’t know if you guys remember the documentary that we played, I don’t know, several weeks ago about it was called beyond treason. What they did with the vaccinations for the anthrax was they gave. It was supposed to be one shot a month for six months, and it was something to let your body get acclimated to it. And what they did is they said, hell with it. We’ll just give it all at one time.

So that’s what they did. And it really messed a lot of people up. A lot of people. I digress. But it wasn’t just illegal to sell arms to the Contras. It was also illegal to sell arms to Iran. They were under an arms embargo because they were considered a terrorist state. I am focusing on Iran in this article for a reason. My next article will dive into the Iran Contra scandal.

But there is an important aspect to this Iran gate operation that nobody knows about. It’s a long story forgotten, and it’s a story long forgotten, and I believe it’s going to shock some people. There was something huge that happened before the Iran Contra scandal that helps connect some dots and paint the bigger picture of what actually happened and why it’s far worse than people know. One event exposes it all, and it also reveals the ultimate plan, which is far bigger than just selling arms and running drugs.

It is centered around one man, a man with a long history and direct ties to George H. W. Bush, a man who was at the center of the Iran Contra scandal, too, and would walk away unpunished. He would later play a key role in another cabal power grab during the presidency of George W. Bush. He is a free man today and still involved in helping the shadow government.

Who is he? John Poindexter. This man is a key figure in exposing it all. Do you remember how George H. W. Bush put the CIA in control of the president’s daily briefing, or the PDF, which elevated the CIA inside the executive branch and gave the CIA control of the information flow to the president? Well, that was just the beginning of the story. Poindexter would do something much bigger.

He would give the CIA control over all the information flowing to the entire executive branch, not just to the president. But it would take a catalyst in order to make these big changes. Bush needed a reason to move into the next level of executive control. He needed a major event. Remember what Q said in why did it take an outsider to finally deliver the start of peace in the Middle east? Why did it take an outsider to finally deliver the start of peace in the Middle east? News coverage, front pages.

Missile strikes, attempt to terminate peace doesn’t sell. War does. Evil and corruption at the highest levels. Peace doesn’t sell war. Fear does. How do you take the american people’s attention off the death squads in Central America that were torturing and murdering their own people under the supervision of the CIA? How do you take the american people’s attention off the drug trafficking by the CIA controlled dictators in central America? Peace doesn’t sell.

War does. Iran was now going to be made the centerpiece of the cabal’s new strategy. What was it? The war on terror. Communism was no longer the threat that would sell war to the american people. The CIA needed a new threat. They needed a new enemy. Iran was now going to be painted as the new enemy, along with their proxy terrorist groups like Hezbollah. And I want to touch on that.

This is actually a really good article. I haven’t read this. As I told you, if I’m reading these, I like you guys to see my original reactions. But this goes right along lines with, if you look at Operation Gladio was about Gladio was the CIA use basically of the Gladio fighters and the stay behind army in Europe to basically keep the money flowing and cause terror events and continuously blame on communism? Well, Gladio B was essentially the same thing, but instead of using communism, they were using terror.

And one of the chief architects of this goes back to Zignu Brzinski and all his stuff up in Central Asia. And Hollywood did its part as well. Because if you recall, I remember. I think it was 1984 when one of the first movies came out of the Chuck Norris movie. Was it the Delta force when they went into Middle east and the big threat was the terrorists hijacking the airplane.

And of course, all through the had the thing with Libya and Gaddafi and all that stuff. I mean, they were just laying the foundation because the Soviet Union was about ready to collapse. The Soviet Union was tricked into the war to go into Afghanistan, which ultimately culminated in them collapsing. And then the new threat was terrorism. So this article, in my opinion, is right on point how the shadow government needed an event that would get the american people’s attention.

Think way back to 1983. What huge event happened that year? The single event that would be the catalyst that the shadow government needed in order to increase their control not only over the presidency, but the entire executive branch. Like most things, it’s been long forgotten. But Q said, news unlocks the past. Do you remember the suicide bombing of the marine barracks in Beirut in 1983? Do you know the real story? Was it really just a terrorist attacked by Hezbollah, the proxy puppet of Iran? Or was it something far more sinister? According to Wikipedia, who I do not trust, just FYI, early on a Sunday morning, October 23, 1982, truck bombs stuck buildings in Beirut, Lebanon, housing american and french service members and the multinational forces in Lebanon.

A military peacekeeping operation during the lebanese civil war. The attack killed 307 people, 240 United States and 58 french military personnel. Six civilians and two attackers. Lebanon was involved in a civil war for control of the country. The United States had sent some marines there as peacekeeping force, along with several other countries. Hezbollah was fighting for control of the country, and the marines were there to help prevent the bloodshed, according to foreign policy.

Notarators note, all references to foreign policy are from this same article. In order to avoid being perceived as an occupying force, the marines had been used to shelter in place on the south side of the airport. They built makeshift bunkers out of sandbags, which cast long shadows on the vast open expanse of the dirt and asphalt, providing easy marks for gunmen. The marines’rules of engagement handed down from the Pentagon said they must maintain a non combat presence.

That meant no heavily fortified bunkers, nothing more than concertina wire to mark their compound. And, in what stuck, instruct so many of the men as sheer madness. No loaded weapons. The rules of engagement handed down by the Pentagon prevented the marines from not only fortifying bunkers for their protection in a war zone, but also required that none of them have loaded weapons, including the guards who were tasked with guarding the outpost.

Why? Here’s where John Poindexter enters the picture. More from foreign policy the ring of the secure phone at his home in suburban Maryland summoned Admiral John Poindexter, President Reagan’s deputy national security advisor, from slumber. He reached over to his bedside table, lifted the receiver. It was nearly 01:00 a. m. . A watch officer in the White House situation, remember, laid what he knew a bombing at the marine compound.

Minutes later, the french regiment had also been hit at their base, not far away, near simultaneous attacks, perhaps copycats of the embassy bombing. The final death count would reach 241, the last time their marines had lost that many men in one day they were storming the beaches of Iwojima. A suicide bombing of our embassy in Beirut had happened earlier that year, in April. Yet our marines were still unarmed and sitting ducks.

Why? How does the CIA controlled shadow government move to the next level? How do they control information to the president and executive branch in a new digital age of information? More from foreign policy since arriving in the White House in 1981 as a military assistant, Poindexter had been trying to fix the shambles that were the early warning and crisis management system of the national security apparatus. Poindexter, an engineer by training, was given the intimidating task of upgrading the Situation room, which was, despite popular notions, a technological backwater that lacked many of the basic necessities for keeping the president in touch with the world.

Across the horizon, Poindexter and other officials saw threats for which the president had little advance warning. From the Soviets to socialist forces in Latin America and now suicidal terrorists. Poindextra had made great strides in little time, beefing up the government’s intelligence capabilities. The Situation room was outfitted with modern communications equipment, and now he was putting the finishing touches on a new $14 million crisis management center, a technological outpost in the old executive office building, the imposing Second Empire style building next to the White House, where the NSC staff keep their offices.

Poindexter had installed video conferencing systems, large screens on the walls, and links to the systems that ran diplomatic, military and intelligence cable traffic. He had even introduced the first early versions of email to the White House. This new nerve center, combining the Situation room and the crisis management center represented a general leap, a generational leap for the White House. Did you catch that? Poindexter was creating a new system that centered around the National Security Council, or NSC, where he and Oliver north played key roles to disseminate information to the president on the Soviets, socialist forces in Latin America.

And now the new threat, terrorism. Peace doesn’t sell. War and fear sell more from foreign policy. Later investigations would show that there were many clues that had gone unnoticed, dots that the intelligence agencies and the White House never connected. Since May, us intelligence agencies had received more than 100 warnings of car bombs. In Lebanon, the military chain of command was regularly briefed about the widening of the military, of the threat to marines.

But then in Beirut, people were always making threats. The Pentagon never allowed the marines to take more defensive positions and had essentially turned them into sitting ducks. The intelligence agencies and the White House never connected the dots that would have warned them ahead of time about this attack. This was just human error. Or was this just human error? Was it just mistakes made by well intentioned members at the top of our government? Or was it going to be the excuse for more centralized power and control over the information flow to the executive branch? It’s worse than you can imagine.

More from foreign policy. Underneath the constant warnings lay a discernible sequence of events that led to the assault of the airport. After the embassy attack in the spring, FBI forensic investigators discovered that the bombers had laden their explosives with ordinary pressurized gas bottles, which magnified the forces of the blast. The key fact, that terrorists had not only set their sights on the US targets, but were enhancing conventional explosives with everyday materials was never made known to the military commanders in Beirut.

That’s because the FBI never disseminated its report. It stayed locked within the CIA and the State Department. The FBI investigation of the US embassy bombing earlier that year painted a picture of the danger the marines were in. They were literally left as sitting ducks because this important information they would have warned them, was kept from the military commanders by the CIA and the State Department. Why? The answer is a terrible thought.

Do you want to know the truth, the honest truth? Our troops have been pawned and sacrificed around the world. In instances just like this, along with wars for the enrichment of the global cabal of elites that don’t value our lives at all and never have. That’s just the truth. There were more warnings than there were never given that were never given to the military commanders. More from foreign policy.

The most fateful signal came in late September. The National Security Agency, which intercepted radio and satellite communications around the globe, snatched a message from the iranian ministry of Information and Security to the iranian ambassador in Syria. The ministry ordered the ambassador to get in touch with a man named Hussein Musawi. The head of islamic terrorist group called Amal. Musawi was to turn his sights on the multinational forces in Lebanon and was ordered to mount a spectacular action against the United States Marines.

But the Beirut airport was the only place to launch such a spectacular attack. The NSA intercept was the clearest indication yet that the marines sat in the crosshairs. But owing to the cumbersome military chain of command and an inexplicable failure to grasp the spectacular urgency of the message wasn’t delivered to senior military officials until two days after the bombing. They had definitive proof that Iran was behind the attack on the marine barracks that killed 241 Americans.

Doesn’t that raise a huge question that nobody seems to be asking? If we knew Iran was behind the killing of 241 marines, why would we be negotiating to sell arms to them just one year later? You know the answer. It was far more important to protect the drug trade through Nicaragua than it was to protect our marines. It was also far more important to the CIA to be allowed to control the information flowing to the entire executive branch.

They were sacrificed. Why? More from foreign policy? In reaction to the Beirut attack and a subsequent bombing of the new us embassy nearly a year later, Poindexter led a massive reorganization of the government’s crisis management teams. He formed an alliance with his friend Bill Casey, the CIE director. The two had developed an honest rapport, and Casey was one of the few senior officials Poindexter felt he could speak frankly.

The CIA set up a secure hotline connecting the State Department, the NSA, the Defense intelligence Agency, and the NSC staff with the CIA’s photographic Intelligence center. This was the government’s primary resource for imagery analysis, and yet there had never been any data links into or out of it. That was about to change. An alliance with Bill Casey, the head of the CIA. What a coincidence. A secure hotline was set up by the CIA to funnel all information from every government agency involved with the intelligence and security through the CIA filter.

The CIA and Bush now had control of both information to the president through the PBD and information to the entire executive branch. When it came to intelligence and national security, mission accomplished. More from foreign policy. To lead them, Poindexter took over an existing NSC outfit called the crisis pre planning group. He turned it into the engine of the government’s anti terrorism campaign, one that was powered for the first time by modern information technologies designated to capture information and get it to the people who needed it.

Looking back now, it’s clear that Poindexter was planting the seeds of a much broader, pervasive, and ultimately global system of information gathering. The government was getting a handle on what was in its own databases. It would be another two decades after the 911 attacks that the intelligence agencies turned their gaze toward the worlds of data that held in private stores on private individuals. Then, too, Poindexter would help lead those efforts as the director of a defense department program called total information Awareness.

It bore a striking resemblance to the global surveillance of the National Security Agency today, and was no accident. The CIA shadow government surveillance state was now entrenched, thanks to a suicide bombing that sacrificed 241 unarmed marines. Now let’s go back to the important question. If we knew Iran was behind the killing of 241 marines, why would we be negotiating to sell arms to them just one year later? Clearly, the CIA and shadow government didn’t view Iran as the enemy.

That was just the public narrative that would be pushed for a coming, never ending war on terrorism. They weren’t an enemy to Bush, they were actually a partner. But Bush still needed an excuse to sell arms to Iran, one that would garner sympathy from both the american people and President Reagan. What would be that reasoning? It would become a CIA template that would be used many more times in the future in order to fund our enemies hostages.

In my next article, I will dive deep into the Iran Contra scandal, which is a massive money laundering operation. And I will also reveal the untold part of the hostage story in Lebanon. That pisses me off. Just going to say, dad, that makes me angry. I didn’t know a lot of that. Wow, it’s, yeah, it’s sickening to think that a lot of these bastards are still running around free as a bird.

Kind of speechless right now, actually. So let me just check the chat. Here’s looking here. What did you figure out by 87 Patriot Dave on what’s the deal with the squalene in the vaccine? I’m not sure what the deal with that is. Yeah, CPI get you. I’m disgusted by our government. All the lies. I would like our government of offices to be able to fit in a double.

My trailer, and this is over. I can’t disagree with you on that one. Let’s see. Jack says, my bill, brother in law was a marine that was dispatched to american embassy in Beirut. They were told they could not fire back. He’s got a photo of himself with a shitload of bullet holes riddled all over the wall. I believe that. Yep. It’s interesting, you know, when you’re in the military and you see a lot of the things that you see overseas, you get a different perspective, because what they tell you in the news is not always what happens.

It’s kind of sad, actually, but I think we all know pretty much the truth of it. Has there ever been a time when our country government wasn’t corrupt? That’s a good question. You know, I think that. I think that there’s always, you know what? Whenever you have. Whenever you have more than three people involved in something, there’s going to be some sort of corruption. Somebody’s always going to do something and manipulate something, do something for self benefiting, whatever.

But in terms of the government, I would say that. Call me naive, but I think with Trump. With Trump, I think Trump actually is actually doing really good things. Does that mean he’s. There’s. There’s corruption is something that is where people are deliberately doing evil or mal. Bad things for either personal gain or gain of an outfit or organization. And I don’t think. Yeah, ses. Okay, got you.

But even then, I don’t know if I agree with that. Mel, 1776 or 1781, I don’t know. I think you still are going to have. Anytime that you have a whole bunch of people in power, there’s still going to be corruption. In my view. It’s not really a matter of corruption, it’s a matter of transparency. Because if you have transparency, transparency is what eliminates corruption, in my opinion.

So if you have transparency, then basically. What did they say? Light is the best disinfectant. I think that’s a saying. Something like that. Anyway, it is a huge swamp to drain. 1000% Tradar, 1000% agree. It is a huge swamp to drain. But I do believe it is being drained. And I think the reason that everybody is so frustrated is because it is such a huge swamp to drain, and that’s why it’s taking as long as it is.

A lot of people say, oh, this is so easy. Just go arrest everybody and just make it go away. It’s not that easy. It’s just not that simple. I know for a lot of people, it’s that black and white. But we don’t live in a world that is black and white. We live in a world that is very gray. There is no white and there is no black.

It’s just different shades of gray. That’s the best way I can answer that question. I don’t know if that’s really answering your question, though, because I don’t think there’s really a time that you can look at where there wasn’t corruption. I just don’t think it exists. But anyway, I digress. Figured a bit less corruption than not. No corruption guest didn’t use. Yeah, I get you. I get you, Mel.

I wasn’t trying to be hard on you, not by any stretch. I hope you didn’t take it that way. I don’t think there’s a way that you can, it’s not really something you can quantify. I don’t think, anyway. All right, guys, well, listen, I’m going to go, it’s about 630 for me on the west coast and I’m going to go and get some stuff done and I’ll be back tomorrow, if you haven’t seen it already, I uploaded the link for the preparation show.

Tomorrow. It’s going to be 03:00 p. m. Eastern, twelve noon Pacific. And it’s going to be Scott Bennett, Rob Cunningham and Ghost and myself. So we will be back tomorrow for an early time and we’re going to be discussing, it’s going to be live and we’re going to be discussing preparation for the storm. So kind of things to have maybe in your possession from a physical standpoint, talking about also things that being mentally prepared and also being emotionally prepared.

Yeah. Agree. Patriot Tafe. It is sad that they’ll sell out people for a few dollars. All right, everybody, hope you have a wonderful evening and probably going to do something tomorrow night for the watch party. Probably going to be something along the lines of the french revolution because I just finished the Napoleon show or Napoleon thing. I’m probably going to be doing something on the french revolution. So I will see you guys mana at some point.

Take care, everybody. Good night. Good night. .
