Woodward: “Secret” Government Under Obama Administration Needs To Be Reviewed

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on November 1, 2013 by Spartan of Truth

From Real Clear Politics

BOB SCHIEFFER: What is so interesting, Bob Woodward, and you know, you and I have seen a lot of these things.

BOB WOODWARD: Too much.

SCHIEFFER: The first thing that agencies tend to do is try to make sure they can’t be blamed for something. And, clearly, that is why the FBI and the CIA did not come clean with the Warren commission, and why maybe they didn’t even tell the agents in Dallas what was going on.

WOODWARD: Well, initially, in the Watergate cover-up, part of the argument was, ‘Oh, you’ll expose convert operations in Mexico,’ because they were laundering $89,000 of money that helped finance Watergate. I think there’s a theme here in all of this that you have laid out that connects somewhat to what’s going on now. And that is the power of this secret world — CIA, FBI — particularly in what you’ve looked at, Phil, the assassination plots against Castro. I mean, it’s stunning, and this information really didn’t get to the Warren commission. And it’s not saying that Castro did it, but that there’s all this secrecy and the people at the top or the people investigating the commission does not get the evidence.

We look now at what’s going on with all the NSA wiretapping and people saying, ‘Well, they didn’t know, or they did know.’ It clearly is much more extensive than people expected. You connect this with the drone strikes in Pakistan, and Yemen, which is our government conducting regular assassinations by air. You know, what’s — what’s going on here? Who is in control of it? And who can find out? You know, I think — it’s in the New York Times this morning that there is a review that Susan Rice, the National Security Adviser for Obama, has done on Mid-East policy. They need to review this secret world and its power in their government because you run into this rats nest of concealment and lies time and time again, then and now.

Activist Post ~ Supreme Propaganda on the Road to Global Tyranny

It happens every once in a while. When you come across stories and news articles that are so unique you wonder to yourself, this has got to be a first. Or perhaps you hear an odd story or even a plot in a movie or real-life scenario when you say to yourself, ‘that’s incredible, this is no doubt a first’, or ‘I’ve never seen such a thing’. It’s that feeling of being blind sided with a fresh new item you are pretty sure you’ve never seen or heard about before. That feeling occurred to me with a recent article I came across.

Knowing the global government agenda and knowing the impetus of their long-term plans for control and knowing how dependent they are on the controlled media, didn’t prevent me from gasping at the level of propaganda in this article. Despite knowing that no level of propaganda is unobtainable to those pushing for a new world order of human slavery, still I was taken aback in admiration of this possibly new or perhaps recycled form of propaganda.

My admitted state of ignorance about this level of propaganda notwithstanding, there it was, an article about the “perceived American inaction” in Syria. Wow, I thought at first, I didn’t know the U.S. was “inactive” in Syria, since the world has known for months about the U.S. support and supplying of weapons including chemical weapons to the terrorists (or “rebels”). As if there has been no illegal funding of the opposition and support of terrorists leading to the breakdown of order and leading to the arrest, detention, torture and murder of civilians including Christians. As if none of this has happened, the article implies all of the support given to the terrorists (rebels) qualifies as non-intervention and shameful lack of action on the part of the United States. Despite the known CIA ongoing operations in Benghazi and throughout Syria, the article completely ignores the existence of the CIA and all of the US illegal activities in Syria.

Syria’s Trove of Secrets

“Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive” –– Sir Walter Scott

Sir Walter Scott - who had a look about him

Sir Walter Scott – who had a look about him

As the chances of American “boots on the ground” in Syria disappear, burying the secrets that Syria has exposed is critical, but to whom? 

Never has a single conflict exposed so much weakness, duplicity and criminality. These things have always been there but never so plain for all to see.

Chemical weapon inspectors overseeing the destruction, well underway, of Syria’s stockpiles can’t help but note clear indications that those stockpiles have not been touched for years.

The silence of this revelation is “deafening.”

Moreover, as it becomes increasingly obvious that Assad’s forces weren’t involved in chemical attacks, inspectors are now asking for Assad’s forces to, through military action, gain access to stockpiles of chemical weapons held by rebel forces.

News stories are reporting this but are trying very hard to hide this story “in plain sight.”  If inspectors are demanding access to rebel areas to assess chemical weapon stockpiles two things are obvious.

  • They believe rebels control chemical weapons
  • They feel that only military action by Assad led forces can secure Syria from further attacks

The danger of world war isn’t over.  A veritable army of carefully groomed intelligence assets have been tasked with a last ditch effort to push the world over the brink.

Chief among these is Christiane Amanpour, the “friendly Muslim face” of CNN, long known in intelligence circles as a Mossad asset.

As the top “news celebrity” in the world with carefully groomed credibility, Amanpour is now on a mission to prove Assad is hiding chemical and biological weapons from UN inspectors, spending the credibility she gained in her recent interview with Iranian President Rohani.

Her task has been to find a “Chalabi” for Syria.  Veterans Today Editor Gwyneth Todd met Chalabi in 1999.  Chalabi was with Paul Wolfowitz at PNAC (Project for a New American Century).

They were quite open about their plans to overthrow seven governments and set up dictatorships under the combined control of the Bush family and Zionist interests.

A “working group” was created to bring this about through what we were later to learn was “9/11.”

With several White House insiders from that time on staff, we get a front row view of that time, how AIPAC spies, Chalabi, White House insiders like Condi Rice and Richard Clarke operated in an environment of full-scale treason, large-scale espionage and manufactured false flag terrorism.

Political obstruction of justice has a long history in America

Greasing the wheels, as is so often the case in Washington was an underworld of sexual perversion, prostitutes, “rent boys,” secret backroom homosexual liaisons in specially designated areas of the White House and even a president who entertained a special male friend who advertised gay sex for pay on the internet.

I have exhaustively interviewed those who were there.  We know the FBI had wiretapped the White House and had active investigations ongoing, targeting almost every top level Bush advisor.

Top AIPAC executives were arrested for espionage and later released.  Top Bush foreign policy and counter-terrorism advisors were all facing life sentences for a variety of crimes until the Justice Department removed FBI investigators and shut down operations, a political move.

Behind it all was sex, often involving kidnapped children.  Author John de Camp wrote about this in “The Franklin Cover-Up, Child Abuse, Satanism and Murder in Nebraska.

This was the first Bush presidency, “41,” and Republican Party officials called on the CIA to aid in silencing the investigation which was characterized as “an attempt to blackmail the President of the United States.” My knowledge of this is “first hand.”

[BOMBSHELL] Ex-CIA Agent Claims Obama Killed Breitbart and Clancy

Doctor Jim Garrow, philanthropist and worker for one of the largest non-profit organizations on the planet to save female children from slaughter in China. He has been featured on several media outlets throughout the world. Last Sunday, as a guest of Now the End Begins internet radio program however, he dropped a bombshell on the world. Dr. Garrow claims that up to a week ago he was covert CIA. To top it off on the program, he states he knows that President Obama ordered the hits that killed Tom Clancy and Andrew Breitbart!

Jim Garrow

Doctor Jim Garrow is a man that works for ending genocide in China. He has a PhD, taught college classes in the United States, and throughout the world. He is also the founder of the Bethune Institute, which operates hundreds of schools throughout China. He was even given a secondary honorary doctorate from the North Carolina Collage of Theology and is one of the few Christian teachers in China. In fact many of the Chinese elite business members and military personnel send their kids to Doctor Garrow’s school.

Then Doctor Garrow started noticing the atrocities surrounding him in China. He started noticing that there was a diminishing value in the lives of females. With China issuing the order of one child per family due to over crowding, families were literally choosing to abort, sell,  and even kill the female child to try for a boy to pass on their lineage and name sake.

Thus he founded Pink Pagoda Girls, a world non-profit organization dedicated to the rescue of unwanted girls in China. Pink Pagoda Girls even goes as far as finding homes for the female children. The work has become so recognized not just in the United States but around the world. Dr. Jim Garrow was even nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize for his work in saving the lives of over 50,000 young Chinese women.

So it came as an absolute shock when listening to the internet radio program on Now the End Begins radio that he made several startling revelations.

Gordon Duff ~ US Congress Deceived by Sarin Plot

Israel, given AIPAC’s “warmongering,” has been seen by many as orchestrating, not just the “civil war” in Syria, but the false-flag gas attacks as well.

Intelligence sources in Georgia, Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Iraq and here in the US have largely debunked the position Secretary of State Kerry insists upon supporting against Syria even though he and the president admit they have no actionable intelligence whatsoever.

A week ago, a US Air Force cargo plane left Charleston Air Force Base, home of Colonel Lindsey Graham, also “Senator” Lindsey Graham, one of the most powerful advocates for war against Syria (and Russia).

It landed in Tbilisi Airport, in the Republic of Georgia. There, it was loaded with what local sources indicate to be “ammunition from the Lugar Lab.”
Every aspect of this operation was observed, from South Carolina to Tbilisi.

On Monday, September 9, 2012, Richard Norland, the US Ambassador to Georgia and reputed former Moscow station chief for the CIA during the last days of the Soviet Union, visited the “Lugar” lab.

After reports on Russian television and in the Georgian press of “irregularities” including leaked emails tying the lab to chemical weapons used by Syrian rebels, Norland took a delegation of diplomats and dignitaries on a tour of the very recently “sanitized” facility.

Norland had left the embassy in Moscow and was Washington’s top “Soviet watcher” when one of the largest intelligence failures in history occurred, the August 1991 attempted coup against Gorbachev.

Our sources on this story carry US security clearances and are part of an unrelated mission in Georgia. Other sources in Georgia have been threatened, some have gone underground.

Bio-chem weapons network
The Lugar Lab, built by the United States, is a bio-chemical warfare research facility, funded by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency. The facility, previously called the “Central Reference Laboratory,” is similar to one constructed in Kazakhstan last year.

Funding and details on both facilities “went dark” quickly as overruns and participation by clandestine agencies were quite unrelated to any “threat reduction” role.

The management of the US-funded facility was turned over to Georgia’s version of the CIA, the Foreign Intelligence Special Service, whose head, Anna Zhvania along with Richard Norland managed the “facility sanitation” tour on Monday.

Official records show Zhvania as resigning as Georgia’s intelligence chief before taking over a “research lab.” Similarly, Norland’s cover as a diplomat has saved him from the ignominy of being cited as top policy maker for, quite perhaps, the most incompetent and corrupt intelligence agency in the world.

More challenges to Kerry’s version
Reports, with limited confirmation, detail how Al Nusra/Al Qaeda forces inside Syria had kidnapped children from occupied regions to use as “victims” of a staged false-flag attack meant to bring the US into the Syrian conflict.

Children were said to have been smothered and laid out to be photographed and filmed with video cameras. The scene was said to resemble the “Crisis Actor” operations the US Department of Homeland Security has staged, simulating terror attacks for training purposes.

By coincidence, these theatrical contracting firms have been on the scene of several real disasters, the Boston Marathon bombing, the Sandy Hook shootings and most infamously, the 7/7 London bomb attacks.

If these allegations are true, particularly this being the 12th anniversary of 9/11, an event no longer questioned by any rational individual as itself being a carefully orchestrated false-flag attack, the idea of murdering children for “political expedience” is totally plausible.

Competing intelligence operations?
There is mounting evidence that Syrian rebels were responsible for the August 2013 attacks:
· hacked emails citing US contracting firms in the planning and execution
· investigative journalists in Georgia
· Press TV reports from Turkey detailing WMD transit into Syria
· Turkey’s seizure of Sarin shipments to Al Nusra
· Statements made to FBI by Eric Haroon which led to his arrest, silence and press smears
· the arrest of a Turkish general in Aleppo two days ago
· videos of rebels using Sarin gas
· videos of rebel leaders admitting to the use of chemical weapons
· along with witness testimony and physical evidence submitted by Russia

A far better case can be made to support Russia’s position than that of the Obama White House.

Lying to Congress
In testimony before the House of Representatives yesterday, General Dempsey cited US policy as supporting “moderate forces” fighting the Assad government. However, his statement was made only moments after Secretary of State Kerry had told representatives that the US planned to “degrade” the fighting ability of the Syrian army.

The “elephant in the room” is the obvious fact that jihadist forces aligned with Al Qaeda would benefit most from US military support and that these same forces are currently trying to overthrow the US-supported government in Iraq.

Odd betrayal of Israel
There is another “elephant in the room.” Russian President Vladimir Putin indicated, should the US attack Syria, that Russia would supply the most advanced air defense systems in the world, not just to Syria but Iran as well.

We have been informed that a private understanding exists between Russia and Iran that would, should Iran be forced to respond to military threats, extend a Russian air defense “umbrella” over Iran.

Though Iran has not threatened to attack Israel, as wrongly reported widely in the press, their ability to do so without fear utterly changes the balance of power in the region.

Counter Punch ~ When War is Swell: the Carlyle Group and the Middle East at War

From Counter Punch

By Jeffrey St. Clair

Paris.

A couple of weeks ago, in a dress rehearsal for her next presidential campaign, Hillary Clinton, the doyenne of humanitarian interventionism, made a pit-stop at the Carlyle Group to brief former luminaries of the imperial war rooms about her shoot-first-don’t-ask-questions foreign policy.

For those of you who have put the playbill of the Bush administration into a time capsule and buried it beneath the compost bin, the Carlyle Group is essentially a hedge fund for war-making and high tech espionage. They are the people who brought you the Iraq war and all those intrusive niceties of Homeland Security. Call them the Knights of the Revolving Door, many of Carlyle’s executives and investors having spent decades in the Pentagon, the CIA or the State Department, before cashing in for more lucrative careers as war profiteers. They are now licking their chops at the prospect for an all-out war against Syria, no doubt hoping that the conflagration will soon spread to Lebanon, Jordan and, the big prize, Iran.

For a refresher course on the sprawling tentacles of the Carlyle Group, here’s an essay that first appeared in CounterPunch’s print edition in 2004. Sadly, not much has changed in the intervening years, except these feted souls have gotten much, much richer.  – JSC

Across all fronts, Bush’s war deteriorates with stunning rapidity. The death count of American soldiers killed in Iraq will soon top 1000, with no end in sight. The members of the handpicked Iraqi Governor Council are being knocked off one after another. Once loyal Shia clerics, like Ayatollah Sistani, are now telling the administration to pull out or face a nationalist insurgency. The trail of culpability for the abuse, torture and murder of Iraqi detainees seems to lead inexorably into the office of Donald Rumsfeld. The war for Iraqi oil has ended up driving the price of crude oil through the roof. Even Kurdish leaders, brutalized by the Ba’athists for decades, are now saying Iraq was a safer place under their nemesis Saddam Hussein. Like Medea whacking her own kids, the US turned on its own creation, Ahmed Chalabi, raiding his Baghdad compound and fingering him as an agent of the ayatollahs of Iran. And on and on it goes.

Still not all of the president’s men are in a despairing mood. Amid the wreckage, there remain opportunities for profit and plunder. Halliburton and Bechtel’s triumphs in Iraq have been chewed over for months. Less well chronicled is the profiteering of the Carlyle Group, a company with ties that extend directly into the Oval Office itself.

Even Pappy Bush stands in line to profit handsomely from his son’s war making. The former president is on retainer with the Carlyle Group, the largest privately held defense contractor in the nation. Carlyle is run by Frank Carlucci, who served as the National Security advisor and Secretary of Defense under Ronald Reagan. Carlucci has his own embeds in the current Bush administration. At Princeton, his college roommate was Donald Rumsfeld. They’ve remained close friends and business associates ever since. When you have friends like this, you don’t need to hire lobbyists..

‘Black Budget’ Revealed: A Detailed Look at US ‘Espionage Empire’

Latest revelations made possible by Edward Snowden give unprecedented view of how taxpayer funds are use to “collect it all”

– Jon Queally, staff writer

In the latest revelation made possible by NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden, the Washington Post on Thursday published an investigative analysis and interactive map of America’s so-called “Black Budget” which details the $52.6 billion allotment of taxpayer money that funds the government’s “intelligence-gathering colossus” that has previously remained insulated from the eyes of the American public.

Though a series of revelations have flowed from the Snowden leaks over recent months, this is the first detailed financial picture of how public monies are used to fund programs that Americans still know very little about. Critiqued as a “collect it all” strategy by those concerned about Constitutional and privacy violations, the vast surveillance network has been slammed at home and abroad.

According to the Post, the “Black Budget,”

maps a bureaucratic and operational landscape that has never been subject to public scrutiny. Although the government has annually released its overall level of intelligence spending since 2007, it has not divulged how it uses those funds or how it performs against the goals set by the president and Congress.

The 178-page budget summary for the National Intelligence Program details the successes, failures and objectives of the 16 spy agencies that make up the U.S. intelligence community, which has 107,035 employees.

The summary describes cutting-edge technologies, agent recruiting and ongoing operations. The Washington Post is withholding some information after consultation with U.S. officials who expressed concerns about the risk to intelligence sources and methods. Sensitive details are so pervasive in the documents that The Post is publishing only summary tables and charts online.

A view into what the newspaper terms the US “espionage empire,” the blueprint and summary documents  obtained by the Post “provides a detailed look at how the U.S. intelligence community has been reconfigured by the massive infusion of resources that followed the Sept. 11 attacks” in 2001.

According to the reporting, the $52.6 billion far-exceeded estimates about the amount of money being spent on clandestine spying and surveillance operations and that figure does not even include an additional $23 billion specifically geared to CIA and NSA operations done in direct support of the U.S. military.
