Phil Dragoo Wrote:John, thank you for your reply which prints to three pages and will be an indispensible study guide.
Each time I see you referring to such historic entities as THE CODE OF THE SOVEREIGN ORDER OF SAINT JOHN OF JERUSALEM I mean to ask you of E. Howard Hunt's naming of his son.
And of course of that son's BOND OF SECRECY.
And the dying Hunt's deflection to LBJ and Cord Meyer et al.
And finally for this posting, of what has been suggested was a back-and-forth between David Atlee Phillips and E. Howard Hunt in their respective novels.
Except for whether William F. Buckley, Jr., was homo sapiens or a two-hundred-year-old reptilian shapeshifter.
Again, thank you.
No doubt, William B. Fuc... I mean William F. Buckley, Jr. (the Mastah) was a serpentine excuse for a human being with a tongue that darted rapidly in and out of his mouth.
Posted more on him in the YAF threads along with Robert J. Morris info. Buckley actually awarded Bob Morris, the Man of the Year Award from YAF in 1964 for his work during the previous year to advance The Conservative Cause and Agenda. I can not find ANYTHING that Morris did in ANY publication which would make him worthy of such an award, short of being perhhaps the major Kingpin in the plot to assassinate JFK. Can you? Willoughby probably wanted to avoid the notoriety and public exposure and they can only award ONE Man of the Year Award from YAF.
"And the dying Hunt's deflection to LBJ and Cord Meyer et al."
Right. I am still thinking that Hunt only ratted out his enemies within the CIA and government whether or not they actually had a major role in the JFK hit.
a) Someone just published and account about LBJ hiding in the bathroom of Air Force One, reluctant to take off and reluctant to come out to face possible additional assassins.
"It's a conspiracy. They are going to get us all." LBJ is quoted as saying. Well if he organized it, he would have known that part of the plot did NOT INCLUDE snuffing the plotmaster. LOL.
b) Frank Wisner, like Cord Meyer, Jr. yet another default scapegoat in the conundrum, was hospitalized with severe depression and not capable of organizing a bowel movement or even making a phone call, apparently, let alone organizing the plot that changed the world. I think that Meyer, is just yet another easy to blame scapegoat as bigwig with little supporting evidence to substantiate it.
"And finally for this posting, of what has been suggested was a back-and-forth between David Atlee Phillips and E. Howard Hunt in their respective novels."
Elaborate please. Back and Forth arguments or supportive commentaries? I am not even aware of this piece of info.
I think only St. John Hunt, "Saint" could tell us the real scoop about this. And he did not answer my eMails either
on other topics.
As a registered AARP member and a certified "old fart" I had to look up the term Shapeshifter. You must be on the south side of 40 to even know what that means, right?
"Shapeshifting is a common theme in mythology and folklore, as well as in science fiction and fantasy. In its broadest sense, it is when a being undergoes a transformation. Commonly the transformation is purposeful, and not a curse or spell. In some folklore once the shapeshifter transformed, it began to get harder and harder to change back to ones original form. Vampires and werewolves are somewhat similar. Vampires, in older pieces of mythology and folklore, were thought to be able to transform into a wolf or a bat, thus giving the vampire bat its name. Most shapeshifters change into an animal, they were believed to only be able to change into an animal, or person that they had seen."
You are most welcome, Phil. Thank you for the kind comments, too.
Where is your focus in this entire conundrum? Would you have any time to help research the H. Smith Richardson Foundation from Vicks Vapo-Rub fame and their namesake? Bill Buckley's sister married Gerald O'Reilly I think it was, the head of this nefarious Foundation. All in the Family.
It was only the movie "Titicut Follies" in 1969 about Bridgewater State Hospital in Massachusetts, which got the
CIA to abandon MK/ULTRA I honestly believe.
Vapo-Rub, huh? Rub him out! "Well off with his head then!" said the Queen of Hearts. Maybe Buckley was the
real "Queen of Hearts!" along with Marvin Liebmann and company.
Did you know that Buckley's father, Draper's uncle George Otis Draper, maybe even Robert McCormick and Charles Willoughby rode in Pershing's Punitive Campaign against Pancho Villa? If you have the chance to collect all the major military right wingers who had a history with the Pancho Villa punitive campaign. Supposedly his tomb was raided even before a young George Bush raided Geronimo's tomb and their Skulls and Bones ended up right next to each other at Yale's Skull and Bones Society. A certain arrogance my patouttie!
The more I look at it that nexus at Brown University in the early 1940's involving Vonsiatsky, E. H. Hunt and George Lincoln Rockwell the more it looms larger and larger in the entire JFK conundrum. Draper and Buckley were their nearby neighbors in Darien, CT and Hopedale, MA and they were all later involved in Regime Change, The Banana Wars, Eugenics, Racism, Involuntary Sterilization, ultra-right conservative religious movements, protecting their family's foreign assets and making money based on insider knowledge about pending and ongoing wars and conflicts.
Other than that they were just busy singing: "Onward Christian Soldiers!" while drunk as skunks, lying naked in a sarcophagus in Room 322 at Yale's Skull and Bones Society.
Can you picture George Bush lying skunk drunk and naked in a tomb at Yale? Or William Buckley, Jr. Aaarrrrrgghhhh!
From: Through the Looking Glass... by Louis Carroll.
`How should I know?' said Alice, surprised at her own courage. `It's no business of MINE.'
The Queen turned crimson with fury, and, after glaring at her for a moment like a wild beast, screamed `Off with her head! Off--'
`Nonsense!' said Alice, very loudly and decidedly, and the Queen was silent.
The King laid his hand upon her arm, and timidly said `Consider, my dear: she is only a child!'
The Queen turned angrily away from him, and said to the Knave `Turn them over!'
The Knave did so, very carefully, with one foot.
`Get up!' said the Queen, in a shrill, loud voice, and the three gardeners instantly jumped up, and began bowing to the King, the Queen, the royal children, and everybody else.
`Leave off that!' screamed the Queen. `You make me giddy.' And then, turning to the rose-tree, she went on, `What HAVE you been doing here?'
`May it please your Majesty,' said Two, in a very humble tone, going down on one knee as he spoke, `we were trying--'
`I see!' said the Queen, who had meanwhile been examining the roses. `Off with their heads!' and the procession moved on, three of the soldiers remaining behind to execute the unfortunate gardeners, who ran to Alice for protection.
`You shan't be beheaded!' said Alice, and she put them into a large flower-pot that stood near. The three soldiers wandered about for a minute or two, looking for them, and then quietly marched off after the others.
`Are their heads off?' shouted the Queen.
`Their heads are gone, if it please your Majesty!' the soldiers shouted in reply.

Randy Bednorz has found and juxtaposed Hunt's description of Knight (Phillips) as "theatrically handsome" on page 26 of Give Us This Day with Condon's description of Shaw as "theatrically handsome" on page 108 of Manchurian Candidate.

Randy Bednorz finds a footnote in the 1977 Phillips Night Watch confirming the identification.
http://jfkmurdersolved.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=1450&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=75#p19283
Bednorz has additional points of interest to relate over the course of the thread's twelve pages.
I posited Give Us This Day as the passion for the deed in Dallas, though cloaked in the lies of Oswald the marxist dog.
I know Mark Lane convinced a jury Hunt was in Dallas. Fonzi certainly convinced me Phillips was Bishop, and Bishop met with Oswald in the presence of Veciana in Dallas. Hunt and Phillips were working on the same or related projects for years. The literature pings are remarkable for their sparseness.
McCarthy is the metier of Evans author of the Sharon Statement and Evans was editor of the now-defunct Indianapolis News.
The Welch Candy company stood on 38th at Fall Creek in Indianapolis where Robert Welch founded the John Birch Society.
Jim Jones thrived in Indianapolis.
Gentlemen, start your machinations.
Not surprised Saint John did not answer your emails. He may very well understand what his father has done is issue a limited hangout. I prefer to call it a deathbed deflection, as the plot didn't begin with Johnson.
NSAM 263 was the third strike. Missile Crisis (read Turkey missile withdrawal), the second. Bay of Pigs, the first.
Johnson couldn't handle the splendid little money maker for Brown & Root and Bell et al. Restrictive rules of engagement. Target list sanitation. Sanctuary in adjacent countries.
And The Day It Became The Longest War. November 1965 he curses the Joint Chiefs who ask permission to mine Haiphong and bomb Hanoi.
So he chickens out like a little girl in March of 1968. Because he believed Cronkite that Tet was a loss, or someone made him an offer he couldn't refuse.
Johnson wakes up in the White House residence with a horse's head in his bed.
Runs back to Texas to die between Hoover's heart attack and Nixon's August 8, 1974 adieu via Marine One.
Who are these temporary residents of the White House who think they run the country.
Well all that's behind us now. Obama's got us out of Iraq, and Afghanistan.
What.

John Bevilaqua Wrote:Jan Klimkowski Wrote:It's time to explore some basic concepts, such as what is meant by Manchurian Candidate.
(snip)
John is entirely correct that the first and original usage - to my knowledge - is by Richard Condon. I suspect that John is also correct in that Condon's primary meaning is of a constructed Presidential candidate, a "sleeper" programmed by a foreign power, in this instance in Manchuria.
John - do you further interpret this to suggest the creation of a White Russian Fuhrer who may not himself be programmed?
Well not the creation, per se, but the reality. I think that Anastase Vonsiatsky was chosen by consensus as the "Candidate" (from Manchuria) of the White Russian emigres to help them recover their lost homeland, mother Russia.
By the same token Condon probably meant that Vonsiatsky bragged about his communications from Ribbentrop, Geobels, von Ludendroff and others where Vonsiatsky stated that he was the Nazis chosen "Candidate" as the proposed new Russian Czar or premiere of a conquered and Fascist occupied Russian state. Again he was from Manchuria where his headquarters were and he used the Pavlovian and maybe some Chinese tricks to program his "assassins" and "saboteurs" which he admitted sending back into communist occupied Russia on suicide assassination missions. To go on patently obvious suicide missions is evidence of having been programmed. Like the Palestinian suicide bombers or what I think was exactly like the 9/11 Kamikaze-styled and Kamikaze-trained pilots in 2001.
So Vonsiatsky was THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE or Canditatus for two groups: White Russian Czarist emigres and for the Nazi leadership and their Gestapo. Remember that I discovered 2 manuscripts by Dietrich von Eckart in the Providence College Vonsiatsky collection hidden in the deep recesses of some library. Vonsiatsky communicated with the highest levels of the Nazi leadership and then boasted about that to his neighbors in Putnam/Thompson while either rip roaring drunk or while playing golf or while playing God. But he was for real.
John - thank you for expanding on your hypothesis here. Can you provide some further details of the section I've bolded above, where you suggest that Vonsiatsky using Chinese and Pavlovian methods to programme individuals for suicide missions? Thanks.
Also, do you think these programmed individuals would fit Colin Ross' definition of a Manchurian Candidate assassin?
Quote:Ross' own definition of Manchurian Candidate is as follows:
Quote:According to my definition, the Manchurian Candidate is an experimentally created dissociative identity disorder that meets the following four criteria:From Ross, The CIA Doctors, p 35
1) Created deliberately
2) A new identity is implanted
3) Amnesia barriers are created
4) Used in simulated or actual operations.
Next:
John Bevilaqua Wrote:Lee Harvey Oswald had undergone intensive MKULTRA training under the real Ray S. Cline while his unit was stationed in Ping Tung, Taiwan for a 30-45 day period when Cline was stationed there with the CIA and living in his "Pink Palace" on a hill. Ray Cline and John Singlaub, later head of the World Anti-Communist League, had headed up the O.S.S. offices in Mukden, Manchuria, China shortly after World War II which was in close proximity to the headquarters of Anastase Vonsiatsky where he and George deMohrenschildt plus 100,000 other exiled White Russians were living out their diapora. See: "The Russian Fascists" by Prof. John J. Stephan at that time a Professor at the University of Hawaii. (Little, Brown - 1979). Vonsiatsky's headquarters were in Harbin, Manchuoko, Manchuria during the Japanese occupation in the 1930's and the 1940's. Vonsiatsky had designed and then executed training programs for programmed assassins, saboteurs and commandos as well as for the Japanese Kamikaze pilots as part of their desperation attempts to turn the tide of the war. Vonsiatsky was also involved with the Section 731 bacteriological warfare and vivisection experiments operated by the Japanese on unwilling POWs and Chinese citizens which were ongoing in Harbin as well during the later stages of World War II. They were obviously trying to determine the most effective and efficient bacteriological agent to release on allied troops. Maj. Gen. Charles A. Willoughby confiscated all of these records and some human detritus produced as a result of these experiments, when he visited Harbin right after the war. It was at this point that he became familiar with the work of Anastase Vonsiatsky in Harbin as well whom he apparently later befriended and recruited into his Shickshinny Knights of Malta orbit of fiends and associates shortly after that.
John - again, I'm keen get a clearer sense of your hypothesis here.
With regard to Oswald having been "programmed" directly by Ray S Cline in Taiwan, I believe your evidence is as follows:
John Bevilaqua Wrote:Helen Reyes Wrote:John Bevilaqua Wrote:The logical inference is that Oswald was being trained in Taiwan by one of Cline's Manchurian Candidate MK/ULTRA programs. Oswald may have shot Corporal Schrand in the armpit while he was in Taiwan as a demonstration of his prowess as an assassin, I can not recall now. When did Oswald shoot Schrand anway? The only way you can shoot someone in the armpit and into his heart is if his hands are raised straight above his head or if they are clasped behind his neck in the classic prisoner's march pose. Mark Diaz in a presentation penned by someone else, offered gratuitous, duplicitous and inaccurate excuses as to how Schrand was supposedly shot in the armpit after he accidentally dropped his rifle, butt first onto the ground and from that point forward he was, and still is, persona non grata in the JFK investigation.
Wait, when was Oswald in Taiwan? I thought he had been stationed in Okinawa for some reason, but Atsugi is in central Japan, in Yamato in Kanagawa prefecture. Can't find any ref to him being in Okinawa, which is closer to Taiwan, but still a long way off.
Just Google Oswald Taiwan and you would get this entry... Just because you can not find a certain reference does not mean it does not exist. It just means that you haven't searched in all the "right places" with all of the appropriate keywords:
"However, the medical record inconsistencies don’t get any easier to parse. On September 16, 1958 Oswald’s unit leaves Atsugi for work in Ping Tung, Taiwan aboard the USS Skagit. A Marine Corps unit record is called a diary. The event is recorded in the unit diary and Oswald is on that ship—he is mentioned by name. Meanwhile his medical records state during this period he was receiving medical treatment at the base hospital in Atsugi from the time the Skagit leaves throughout much of September of 1958. He was ailing from urethritis to hemorrhoids. It’s hard to comprehend that there are two Oswald’s in the same unit at the same time and place."
It was supposedly during the month of September that Oswald contracted and was treated for this urinary tract disorder (or this STD) and then spent some time being mind controlled or conditioned instead. Certainly a simple case of urethritis and hemorrhoids does not mandate a 30-day stay mostly incommunicado in a base hospital, now does it?
http://www.deeppoliticsforum.com/forums/showpost.php?p=14445&postcount=125
Is it not equally plausible that Oswald stayed at Atsugi, a known MK-ULTRA site, and was programmed there?
In my judgement, it is very important to be clear about the nature and origin of any "programming" that may have taken place. As per my posts earlier in this thread, there is no known historical evidence that Unit 731, which was based in Harbin, Manchuria, conducted any psychological or mind control research. Unit 731 did conduct gruesome and ruthless biological and chemical weapons experimentation, and quite possibly operations.
It is clear that there were numerous mind control programmes - eg Chinese, Soviet, British intelligence, CIA, ONI, US Military Intelligence. In the 1940s and 50s, my best judgement is that their methodology was based on some combination of the following three main factors:
i) Behaviourist and Pavlovian models of the brain;
ii) knowledge of the impact of severe trauma on the human psyche and the resulting "malleability" of the brain;
iii) spiritual, shamanic and occult techniques and traditions.
I've written about this here:
http://www.deeppoliticsforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=223
I consider it important to be clear about which mind control programming, if you will, we are claiming is in play at any particular time.
So, for instance, I believe it is entirely plausible that Lee Harvey Oswald was progarmmed using MK-ULTRA techniques in Atsugi. Oswald was then despatched to the Soviet Union as a false defector.
It is also entirely plausible that the Soviets regarded Oswald as a false, rather than a genuine, defector. In addition, if they suspected that Oswald had been the subject of mind control programming, they would most certainly have taken a look inside his psyche (eg during his periods of hospitalisation in the USSR) - primarily to see precisely how he had been programmed.
In short, if there was MK-ULTRA programming inside Oswald's head, learning its secrets would have been quite a prize for the Soviet Union's own black shrinks.
And then, at the heart of the Cold War, the defector and traitor Oswald returns, ever so easily, to America, with his Russian bride from an intelligence-connected family, and into the bosom of a far right White Russian community.
If Oswald's brain had been subjected to MK-ULTRA programming at Atsugi (or even earlier if we consider John Armstrong's Harvey and Lee research), and this was discovered by Soviet black shrinks before his return to America, then Oswald is quite a prize. And quite a pawn.
No wonder he was surrounded by so many would-be handlers and controllers.

Howard Hunt's naming of his son.Ah, well spotted Phil! I hadn't connected that but had often though it an odd name for a first name.
And I have to dredge up some of my nearly ancient, but very relevant research and analysis on some of the chivalric terminology used both by and about Hunt and Phillips and others: "Knight", "Bishop", "King", "Queen" and "Castle" or "Rook".
Was Phillips "Knight" or "Bishop" then? He was perhaps mis-identified as "Maurice Bishop", right after all was said and done? I think Phillips was indeed "Knight" and he was correctly identifed as Veciana's contact but he was not, IMHO, really Maurice "Morris" Bishop. You can not have 2 chivalric common names: Knight and Bishop, now can you?
Just a little terminology slip-up, nothing to blame Fonzi for in fact. But Fonzi did twist around and confabulate the Marita Lorenz story at the behest and encouragement of Gordon Winslow until it had been rendered unrecognizable.
And for that he should be held accountable.
Because if Phillips was really known as "Knight" then I think I know who "Bishop" really was. The cutesy clues are:
At one time, before he painted a target on my back, causing Frank Sturgis to pay a little drive-by stare-down visit to me in Rhode Island like he did for Marita Lorenz, Gordon Winslow said that "several" of his South Florida anti-Castro Cuban exile contacts, totally unbeknown to each other, have told him during different interviews over the years that they pronounced Bishop's first name as "Moe-reese" but in fact it was really spelled either "Morris" or "Morriss." Emigres with a Cuban accent would pronounce Morris or Morriss as "Moe-Reese" making it sound almost French like "Maurice Chevalier" to the casual "observer" or "hear-server" it should probably be.
My candidate for "Maurice Bishop", the named person, instead of "Knight" the person in the artist's reconstructed sketch used by Veciana to identify Phillips, is and always will be someone else who had a winter home in South Florida, who lived very, very near Hernando's Hideaway, and therefore very near my childhood home.
This same "Morris" guy was also involved with Coudert Brothers in NYC in 1940-41, during the Rapp-Coudert "Commies in the Classrooom" campaigns and with Boris Brasol who worked at Coudert Brothers at the time pushing out the PsyOps Warfare games involved with "The Protocols..." as well. Coudert Brothers, Rene Coudert, was it , was the PsyOps NY City Mayoralty campaign manager for none other than William B. Fuc... shute... there I go again... William F. Buckley, Jr. in perhaps '64 or '65 against John Lindsey was it?
And he was later credited by Whittaker Chambers in his 1997 NY Times obit with accomplishing most of what McCarthy and McCarthyism achieved.
Oh, yes and he was also referenced by Richard Condon in ManCand, the novel, at least a half-dozen times himself, making him Condon's chief suspect, main plotmaster, Mr. Big, the head enchilada, and the person who should go down in history along with a certain pro-Fascist, Nazi sympathizer, born in Germany and the numero uno leader in The Shickshinny Knigts of Malta as The Man Who Had JFK killed.
Oh, and William F. Buckley, Jr. gave this guy The Man of the Year Award from YAF in Dallas in 1964 and as far as I can tell, he did nothing to deserve it, absent his postulated (or confirmed) role as being the Kingpin and Komplicit as the Kovert Kennedy Killer.
Anyone know a good literary agent? This story has got to be told. It has got to be told before someone.... Bang! Bang! A-a-a-a-a-r-r-r-g-g-g-g-h-h-h-h! Thump, bump.
Just kidding...
You guys have got to know by know who I am referring to right? And his Shickshinny Knights of Malta cohort in complicity and conspiracy? His partner worked for the Hunt family who organized and ran the British Equivalent to The Military and Hospitaller Order of the Knights of St. John of the Isle of Rhodes (Island) and the Isle of Malta (OSJ) called The Knights of the Order of St. John of Lazarus (OSJL), I think it was. The second org had someone named Lord Malcolm Douglas-Hamilton, OBE, RAF, DFC as their fearless leader who just happened to be involved with The Cliveden Set, the Rudolph Hess visit to Great Britain, The British Eugenics Society, The British Israelism Movement run in America by Rev. Gerald L. K. Smith who was at the Winnipeg Airport Incident, British Racialism and
Draper's Pioneer Fund and The American Eugenics Society.
The Douglas-Hamilton brothers were the equivalent of Colonel Wickliffe Preston Draper who sponsored the political campaigns of Senators like J. Strom Thurmond, Jesse Helms, James Eastland, Barry Goldwater, John Tower and several others for decades and decades.
You think I am on to something here? I do. Stick a fork in it. It is almost done.
And I NEVER would have even delved into these Order(s) of St. John from the Isle of Rhodes (as in Rhode Island) if it did not involve the very familiar, to me at least, Isle of Rhodes and if the very name "Saint John" was not there. I swear to you that is entirely and completely true. Of course for the traditional "All Saints Day Parade" how do you think I was garbed? As St. John the Baptist, one year maybe St. John the Divine if there was such a thing another then some other version of St. John. I never even considered until recently that someone like H. L. Hunt who chose William F. Buckley as the Godfather to his children could possibly be yet another holier-than-thou religious freakazoid.
And yet Hunt gravitated towards his Brown University classmates, Vonstiatsky and George Lincoln Rockwell of the American Nazi Party, the close fiend of both Don Burros, Secretary of the ANP, whose name/address appeared in the notebook of LHO and Joseph A. Milteer, KKK, ANP, NSRP who called all the right shots just before the fact of the assassination either after or while attending the Congress of Freedom meeting in INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA home of Robert Welch with Willie Somersett an informant for the Miami PD Intelligence Division where a relative of mine actually was employed.
Am I getting closer....?

Well that just about wraps it up then. Ray S. Cline lived in the legendary "Pink Palace" in Taiwan, near the Ping Tung
base where Oswald's ship had docked as I recall. And that Pink Palace was high on a mountaintop, rather than high on a hill as I stated previously.
Wish I had moved to this Deep Politics site years ago.

Magda,
Great posting and a very believable accounting from "Hawk" Jensen from LaCrosse, Wisconsin. I suggest we all eMail
the reporter from that newspaper and ask him to review this current evidence which is fully supported by the accounts of Jensen, whom I beleive to be very credible and very honest. He even mentions that Gerry Patrick Hemming, my sporadic, erstwhile neighbor in Miami's Grapeland Heights neighborhood, LHO and even Dallas PD Captain(?) was it, Roscoe White were involved with these secretive mountaintop MK/ULTRA operations probably very near or perhpas even "IN" Ray S. Cline's mountaintop hideaway in Taiwan called "The Pink Palace". You know, right now, I can not even find the written citation, if any exists, to this "Pink Palace" location or to Ray S. Cline's presence there.
Maybe it was just stored in my memory from a far-ago and long-away verbal statement made by a friend, Robert "Bob" Richardson (certainly not the better known General Robert C. Richardson) who was in the U.S. State Department. He married into my mother's side of the family, the Grabowska branch. His last role in the early 1980's was in planning to establish and maintain communications networks which could survive even all out nuclear attacks from the Rooskies. Really bright guy. Runs in the family I guess.

Thanks, Magda, for this corroborating information that supports my thesis and theories and validates my bona fides and enhances my credibility which some have chosen to question in order to protect and defend either conspirators or their "friends" who choose to proffer contradictory versions of historical events which I or family members have either been personally involved with or have extracted from either willing and witting sources or from some combination of unwilling and unwitting eyewitnesses or earwitnesses or from some snippets of information in the public record.

a movement that would spread to nearly one hundred nations on six continents.
One was a ruthless dictator who had seen his vast domain reduced to a tiny
island through corruption and a series of military blunders. Another was a
former communist who had saved his own life by turning in hundreds of his
comrades for execution. Two were gangsters, the fifth was an evangelist who
planned to take over the world through the doctrine of "Heavenly Deception."
They weren't what one would call a sterling assortment of characters- four of
the five had spent time in prison, two for war crimes, one for anti-state
activities, another on a morals charge. Yet if it weren't for the collective
efforts of Chiang Kai-shek, Park Chung Hee, Ryoichi Sasakawa, Yoshio Kodama,
and the Reverend Sun Myung Moon, there probably would not be a World
Anti-Communist League today.
The organization that Stetsko's Anti-Bolshevik Bloc of Nations joined forces
with in 1966 was dedicated to stemming the communist tide in Asia: the Asian
People's Anti-Communist League (APACL). Formed in 1954, the Asian League was
dedicated to uniting conservatives from all over the continent to battle the
"Red hordes" that threatened them all. When the ABN, the APACL, and other
groups merged in 1966 to form the World Anti-Communist League, it did not
mean the end of the Asian People's Anti-Communist League, but its stature was
reduced to regional affiliate of the larger organization.
Although the Asian League was hailed in 1954 as a private formation of
concerned citizens, parliamentarians, and clergy, it was actually a creation
of South Korean intelligence agents and the Chinese government-in-exile of
Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek. In many respects, South Korea and Taiwan
appeared to be natural allies. Chiang's Nationalists were isolated on the
tiny island of Taiwan, or Formosa, and Korea was devastated and impoverished
after the Korean War- both nations were desperately seeking anti-communist
allies throughout the world. An organization in which conservative leaders
from the United States and Europe could meet with their Asian counterparts
seemed a good avenue for this.
Chiang Kai-shek had waged a bloody and cruel twenty-year war in China against
the Mandarin warlords, the occupying Japanese, and the communists led by Mao
Tse-tung. Chiang's rule was corrupt, inept, and impotent, perhaps best
illustrated by the speed with which he lost mainland China to Mao after World
War II. Even the American military officials who advised him during World War
II had no faith in him or in his Kuomintang (KMT) political party. As early
as 1943, General Joseph Stilwell had disgustedly called the Chiang Kai-shek
rule "a one party government supported by a Gestapo."
Though the mainland was not completely conquered by Mao until 1949, Chiang
had established his cronies on Formosa (named by the Portuguese, meaning
"beautiful") four years earlier. The native Formosans chafed under the
Kuomintang rule, which had quickly monopolized the island's economy and
government. In 1947, the natives, ardently pro-American, rebelled against the
"occupiers" and pushed for greater autonomy.
If the Formosans were hoping for moderation from the Kuomintang or assistance
from the Americans, they were soon disillusioned. Generalissimo Chiang
Kai-shek may not have been able to defeat the communists, but the unarmed
Formosans were a different story, under the cover of darkness, he rushed some
twelve thousand of his Nationalist soldiers to the island. The massacres that
ensued were indiscriminate and vast in scale.
"From an upper window," George Kerr, a State Department official in Formosa,
wrote, "we watched Nationalist soldiers in action in the alleys across the
way. We saw Formosans bayoneted in the street without provocation. A man was
robbed before our eyes-and then cut down and run through. Another ran into
the street in pursuit of soldiers dragging a girl away from his house and we
saw him, too, cut down.
"This sickening spectacle was only the smallest sample of the slaughter then
taking place throughout the city."[1]
Dr. Ira Hirschy, the chief medical officer in Formosa for the United Nations
Rehabilitation and Relief Agency, was also a witness to the killings:
In the city of Pintung where the inauguration of the brief people's rule was
marked by the playing of the Star Spangled Banner on phonographs, the entire
group of about 45 Formosans who were carrying on various phases of local
government were taken out to a nearby airfield from which, later, a series of
shots were heard. A Formosan, who, representing the families of these people,
went to the military commander to intercede for their lives, was taken to the
public square and, after his wife and children had been called to witness the
event, he was beheaded as an example to the rest of the people not to meddle
in affairs which did not concern them.[2]
After the initial wave of killings, which claimed the lives of most of
Formosa's prominent businessmen, intellectuals, and political leaders, the
Nationalists turned their attention to the younger generation. "We saw
students tied together," Kerr reported, "being driven to the execution
grounds, usually along the river banks and ditches about Taipei [the
capital].... One foreigner counted more than thirty bodies�in student
uniforms-lying along the roadside east of Taipei; they had had their noses
and ears slit or hacked off, and many had been castrated. Two students were
beheaded near my front gate."
The March 1947 massacre took an estimated twenty thousand lives; the
fledgling Formosan independence movement had been crushed and the way was
paved for Chiang Kai-shek and his soldiers retreating from the mainland to
establish a government-in-exile. The atrocity also proved the efficacy of
total and unconventional warfare, a mode of combat the Nationalists would
later teach to other anticommunists, often through the auspices of the World
Anti-Communist League.
By 1949, nearly a million Nationalists had flooded into Formosa. There they
established the Republic of China and imposed a rigid dictatorship over the
indigenous population, which outnumbered them fifteen to one. The Formosans,
now called Taiwanese under Chiang's decree, were completely shut out of the
governing process, which became the domain of the Kuomintang. Businesses and
factories belonging to natives were taken away and given to Chiang's cronies.
Taiwanese suspected of harboring communist sympathies or of opposing Chiang's
rule (to the government, the two were virtually synonomous) were executed or
exiled to the prison on Green Island on the slightest pretext- this
effectively crushed any opposition that remained.
Contrary to popular belief, and contrary to the pronouncements of the
Kuomintang, the United States did not immediately support the new government
in Taiwan. Throughout all branches of the American government, including the
military, there was widespread contempt for Chiang Kai-shek and revulsion at
the atrocities of his soldiers. Lieutenant General Albert C. Wedemeyer,
generally considered something of a rightist and certainly no friend of Mao's
communists, wrote in 1949:
The Central Government [the Kuomintang] lost a fine opportunity to indicate
to the Chinese people and to the world at large its capability to provide
honest and efficient administration.... [They] ruthlessly, corruptly and
avariciously imposed their regime upon a happy and amenable population. The
Army conducted themselves as conquerors. Secret police operated freely to
intimidate and to facilitate exploitation by Central Government officials.[3]
The man who would make the new regime in Taiwan palatable to the Americans
was General Douglas MacArthur. One day in July 1950, while he was commander
in chief of the United Nations forces fighting in Korea, MacArthur breezed
into Taipei, met with Chiang Kai-shek, and promised him, in contradiction to
President Truman's policy, that American expertise and weapons would soon be
flowing to the island bastion. Appearing before the Senate Committee on
Foreign Relations, the general extolled the virtues of the Kuomintang
government.
I superficially went through Formosa. I was surprised by the contentment I
found there. I found that the people were enjoying a standard of living which
was quite comparable to what it was before the war.... I found representative
government being practiced.... I went into their courts. I found a judicial
system which I thought was better than a great many of the other countries in
Asia. I went into their schools. I found that their primary instruction was
fully on a standard with what was prevalent in the Far East.... I found many
things I could criticize too, but I believe sincerely that the standard of
government that he [Chiang] is setting in Formosa compares favorably with
many democracies in the world.[4]
That MacArthur had achieved such a firm grasp of the state of affairs in
Taiwan during a single day's visit was not questioned by the American
legislators. Indeed, his promises of American support were prophetic. As the
Korean War turned against the United States, Chiang Kai-shek, with his dream
of returning to the mainland and defeating the communists, was seen as a
potential pressure point against Mao. With the rise of Senator Joseph
McCarthy and his "exposing" of communist sympathizers in the federal
government, American officials muted or stopped their criticism of Chiang's
rule. Suddenly the Kuomintang was respectable, and American aid began to pour
in. The American Military Assistance Advisory Group (MAAG) in Taiwan grew
from a handful of advisers in 1951 to 2,300 five years later. Economic aid
and war materiel flowed in at a rate that the island could not possibly
absorb. By 1961, military expenditures, nearly all provided by the American
government, were three-quarters of the national budget.
Throughout, Chiang Kai-shek performed his appointed role. Every October 10,
he emerged onto a balcony in Taipei's main square and, before hundreds of
thousands of soldiers, students, and workers standing at attention,
proclaimed that the return to the mainland was imminent.
At the end of World War II, Korea was a divided and shattered nation. The
Soviets had seized the industrialized northern half of Korea and established
a puppet state. The Americans, occupying the southern half, brought in
Synghman Rhee, a right-wing strongman who hadn't lived in Korea for
thirty-five years, to rule their sector. Since Rhee had no power base, the
military and the government of South Korea were both filled largely with
rightists who had fought on the side of the Japanese during the war and who
could thus be trusted as anti-communists. One of these was Park Chung Hee.
Although the Asian People's Anti-Communist League was established during
Rhee's reign, it was Park who would make it an important instrument of South
Korean foreign policy.
When the Asian People's Anti-Communist League was formed in 1954, Taiwan and
South Korea had much in common. Korea had lost half its territory, the most
economically advanced part, to the communists, while Chiang's Nationalists
had seen over 99 percent of theirs slip away. Both were in the front lines of
the Cold War, completely exposed to their implacable enemies: the Korean
capital was twenty miles away from the armies of North Korea, and Taiwan was
ninety miles across the China Sea from the colossus of Communist China. Both
harbored dreams of reunification through the defeat of communism, both were
ruled by military dictatorships that kept order through perpetual martial
law, and both were indebted to the United States for their survival and
prosperity.
The Asian People's Anti-Communist League was born out of the desire of these
two nations to cement ties with potential friends in other parts of the
world, as well as to justify their own dictatorships. Although the Asian
League has expanded to include other Asian countries in the American sphere
of influence, ultimate power has always remained with Korea and Taiwan; the
chairmanship goes to Taipei and the secretariat is housed in Seoul. In the
1970s, when other countries criticized Korea's iron-fisted internal policies
and dropped their recognition of Taiwan in favor of mainland China, the Asian
League, as well as the World Anti-Communist League, became virtual foreign
policy arms of these two countries desperate to make, or at least maintain,
relations wherever and with whomever possible.
>From the beginning, the task of forming and perpetuating the Asian People's
Anti-Communist League was entrusted to Korean and Taiwanese intelligence
agencies. The composition of their league delegations was largely drawn from
the intelligence and military communities. For example, Ku Cheng-kang,
president of the Taiwanese chapter and currently "honorary
chairman-for-life," had been a member of Chiang Kai-shek's Supreme National
Defense Council during World War II, minister of interior and of social
affairs, national policy adviser, senior adviser to the president, and a
member of the Central Standing Committee of the ruling Kuomintang. Armed with
an impressive array of posts and honors, Ku was, technically at least, the
fourth most important official in the KMT government. The Korean delegations,
on the other hand, were composed mostly of active and retired army officers
or, beginning in the 1960s, Korean CIA agents.
The Chinese Nationalists established branches of the Asian League in ethnic
Chinese communities in the United States. Korean CIA agents fanned out
throughout Asia and the United States making contacts and arranging
delegations for conferences, usually paying for the visitors' expenses. It
was Park Chung Hee, Synghman Rhee's successor in South Korea, who was most
responsible for this campaign of expansion and quiet influence.
Park, a slight man by Korean standards, was a master in the game of political
musical chairs; he nimbly leaped from the right to the left, in whatever
direction was most advantageous to his pursuit of power. He had been not just
a Japanese sympathizer during the war; he had been trained by them. He had
graduated from their Manchukuo Military Academy in occupied Manchuria and
fought with them in China. That background did not, however, deter him from
secretly becoming a high official in the Communist Party of South Korea while
he was teaching at a military academy in 1946. When he was arrested by the
government in 1948 and sentenced to death, his future looked bleak; it was
time for him to move back to the right, Park cut a deal with the Rhee
government: Spare my life, and I'll tell you everything. "His actions
resulted in the purge of hundreds of army officers and the death of many
former friends."[5]
Park's treachery kept him alive to lead the coup thirteen years later that
would propel him to power as the strongman of a rightwing, anti-communist
military dictatorship. At three o'clock on the night of May 16, 1961, the
Korean army fanned out through the streets of Seoul. By the end of the day,
the officers had formed a Military Revolutionary Committee, dissolved the
National Assembly, closed all schools and newspapers, imposed a dusk-to-dawn
curfew, and declared martial law. Before the end of the year, they had
created the Korean Central Intelligence Agency.
[*][ *Despite the similarity
of names, there is no evidence that the American CIA was involved in the
creation of the Korean CIA in 1961. In fact, American authorities were
reportedly angered by the South Korean government's adoption of the identical
title.]
While he was the unbridled ruler of South Korea, Park transformed the Asian
League. He replaced the Korean chapter leaders: High-ranking generals,
admirals, and personal advisers to the president began attending its
conferences. Through the League, the new ruling elite of South Korea could
meet, confer, and negotiate informally with influential military officers and
parliamentarians from throughout the world. In time, both the Asian People's
Anti-Communist League and the World Anti-Communist League became instruments
of the Park government's campaign to gain influence in other countries
through the bestowing of gifts, money, or favors. The eventual revelations of
this campaign culminated in the 1976-78 Koreagate scandal in the United
States.
Just how important a foreign policy instrument Park considered Korea's League
chapter to be, especially when directed at the United States, is illustrated
by the fact that it was an American professor,
David Rowe, who rebuilt it for him, "With the financial support of an
American foundation," Rowe wrote in 1970, "and on the invitation of a Korean
who is still today probably the second most powerful man in Korea [an
apparent reference to former KCIA director Kim Jong Pil], I spent the summer
of 1965 in the Korean Chapter of the APACL. I worked to establish training
organizations and procedures for the anti-Communist struggle in Korea.... I
accomplished almost single-handed the following: the then-head of the Korean
Chapter was sacked and a younger and highly capable man took the job, albeit
only for a limited time. The organization was thoroughly cleansed of its
left-oriented infiltrators.... When I finally got to the President of the
Republic of Korea, and outlined the rotten state of affairs then current in
the Chapter and told him what had to be done,
I can simply state for the record that within six months every one of my
specific recommendations for the Chapter had been put into effect."[6]
The Korean president who acted on Rowe's recommendations, Park Chung Hee,
ruled South Korea with an iron fist until 1979. One evening in October of
that year he was dining at the Kungjong, a government restaurant, with the
KCIA director, Kim Jae Kyu. Sitting on the floor in traditional Korean style,
the two men began quarrelling over the repressive methods that had been used
recently to silence the oppositon. The climax of this "accidental argument"
came when Kim Jae Kyu produced a gun, aimed it at the president's head five
feet away, and pulled the trigger. Kim put two bullets into Park, then gunned
down five other occupants of the room. (How the KCIA director fired at least
seven bullets from a six-chamber revolver is a ballistic mystery that Korean
authorities have never fully explained.)
Park Chung Hee was dead, but by that time the League could survive without
him.
Although the U.S. government has denied the authors access to the pertinent
records, it appears clear that the United States was largely behind the
formation of both the Asian People's and the World Anti-Communist Leagues.
Because the United States propped up the regimes of Synghman Rhee and Chiang
Kai-shek, these rulers naturally initiated programs and pursued policies that
their American advisers favored. Conversely, they could not easily embark on
a project that the United States did not desire. Given the political
realities of the time, it would be hard to believe that the Leagues were
established without American assistance- after all, their stated objectivesto
actively fight communism-were very much in keeping with American foreign
policy objectives.
It is equally doubtful that the Taiwanese and South Korean governments footed
the bills for the Leagues. Taiwan was still woefully poor in the 1950s, while
Korea 7 devastated by the Korean War, was suffering famine in some provinces.
Without enough money to feed their own people, where did the money come from
to launch an international organization? The obvious answer is that it came
from the United States.
If this is so, the financial assistance program was not overt; no bill was
ever introduced in Congress for U.S. funding of the Leagues. Former
intelligence officers suggest that the funds most likely came out of money
already designated for economic or military assistance, CIA discretionary
funds, or U.S. Embassy Counterpart Funds, and that it was done not out of
Korea but out of Taiwan.
Since the Chinese Nationalists were in no position to repay the American
assistance in the 1950s 7 an arrangement was made whereby the United States
was given "credits" in the Taiwanese currency (NT) for its debts. Using this
method, the Taiwanese then embarked on various programs dictated by the
Americans as a means to lower their debt. Thus the much-hailed Taiwanese
missions to Africa to teach farmers better agricultural practices were
actually an American program, paid for by Counterpart Funds in the American
Embassy.
These funds were not just numbers in a ledger book. They were actual sacks of
money that sat in a safe in the American Embassy in Taipei. From the
little-scrutinized Counterpart Funds account may have come the initial
financing for the Asian People's Anti-Communist League in 1954 and the
preparatory meeting of the World AntiCommunist League in 1958.
The most likely American conduit for the latter operation was a flamboyant
Harvard graduate named Ray Cline. Having served as an intelligence officer
for the U.S. Navy and for the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) in Asia
during World War II, Cline was CIA station chief in Taiwan from 1958 to 1962.
As such he had access to the Counterpart Funds account at the time when the
first preparatory meetings were being held toward the establishment of the
World League.
[*][ *Cline went on to become deputy director of intelligence
for the CIA and is now a senior associate of the Center for Strategic and
International Studies at Georgetown University in Washington and president of
the National Intelligence Study Center.]
Whatever the validity of this theory, Cline continues to have a close
relationship with the League. Not only has he attended several conferences,
including those of 1980, 1983, and 1984 7 but he is also a close friend of
retired Major General John Singlaub; their relationship dates back to the
1940s, when both served with the OSS in China. Singlaub is currently chairman
of the World Anti-Communist League.
Cline has contributed to the flourishing of the international ultraright in
ways more verifiable than his possible early work with the League. Despite
his local notoriety in Taiwan for having built the gaudiest home on the
island (dubbed "the Pink Palace"), Cline developed a deep and lasting
friendship there with a man named Chiang Ching-kuo, who at the time was head
of the obscure Retired Serviceman's Organization.
Cline's friend and hunting partner was not just a low-level Kuomintang
bureaucrat, however; he was the son of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek and
heir-apparent to the Taiwan dictatorship. He had an intelligence background
similar in some respects to Cline's, except that he had the added advantage
of having been trained by the enemy.
Chiang Ching-kuo had graduated from the Sun Yat-Sen University in Moscow in
1927. Deemed a "revolutionary cadre" by his communist instructors, he was
appointed as an alternate member of the Communist Party. He had also attended
the Whampoa Academy, a Soviet-run school in China that instructed its pupils,
both communist and Nationalist, in the art of political warfare. The
generalissimo's son put his instruction to good use- by the time of his
affiliation with Cline, he had already been in control of the Kuomintang's
secret police (or "Gestapo," according to General Stilwell) for at least a
decade and had personally overseen purges in which dozens of Kuomintang
officers were executed. Throughout his subsequent rise to the top, from
defense minister to premier and, finally, to president, Chiang Ching-kuo had
a steadfast ally in Ray Cline.
In the late 1950s they joined forces to create an instrument of war that
continues to have a hidden impact on events throughout the world: the
Political Warfare Cadres Academy. Today, much of the international
recruitment for this academy is coordinated through the World Anti-Communist
League.
Although the regime describes political warfare as a system "to remove
obstacles to national unity within and to resist aggression from without,"[7]
political warfare is actually the ideological base that the Kuomintang has
used to maintain Taiwan as a police state and to infiltrate, expose, and
liquidate any opposition that may be suspected to exist at any level of
society, even down to the family level. Through the use of political warfare,
armed with the fiat of permanent martial law, the Nationalists have built
what is probably one of the most pervasive internal security and spying
networks in existence. Fully one-fifth of the population is believed to be
involved in this warfare, in activities ranging from lecturing soldiers and
workers in political "correctness" to surveilling one's own children,
parents, and neighbors for the authorities. The tool used to perpetuate this
system is the Political Warfare Cadres Academy, housed on a hillside in
Peitou, just outside the capital.
Patterned after the Soviet model of political officers, commissars, and
informants, the academy is the training ground for the General Political
Warfare Department, a branch of the Ministry of National Defense. Its primary
function, as with the Soviet model, is to ensure party (in this case,
Kuomintang) control of the military through political incloctrination.
Kuomintang cells, called "political departments" and composed of graduates of
the academy, are established in every military unit down to company size.
These political commissars watch over troops as well as the non-academy
officers, test their political awareness, and submit regular status reports
to the General Political Warfare Department on each person. "The surveillance
or inspection function of the company political officer is by far his most
ominous duty. Each member of the unit has the responsibility to report on
dissidence and deviant political attitudes which may be observed on the part
of his comrades."[8] The commissars' primary loyalty is not to the military
but to the Party, and according to former American advisers in Taiwan, in
disputes between army and political officers, the latter always win.
The General Political Warfare Department conducts a vast array of operations.
It runs radio stations, publishing houses, and even movie studios. It also
has counterintelligence units to locate subversives and psychological warfare
units to supervise political warfare campaigns and promulgate propaganda, as
well as civic affairs units for the purpose of infiltrating behind enemy
lines during an invasion to generate support for the Kuomintang. All of these
different units undergo training at the academy.
Although it was created in the early 1950s, the academy took on new
importance when Chiang Ching-kuo became director of the General Political
Warfare Department and reorganized it in 1959, a move facilitated by American
assistance. In fact, American military personnel, drawn largely from the
Military Assistance Advisory Group stationed in Taiwan, taught at the academy.
One Taiwanese, a former Kuomintang Party member now living in exile, was
selected from his university class to attend a two-month training course at
the academy. "We were taught that to defeat communism, we had to be cruel. We
were told to watch our commander, that if he showed weakness or indecision in
combat, we were to kill him. They also had us watch fellow classmates who, of
course, were watching us."[9]
The cadres are also instructed in how to spot potential communist or
pro-Taiwanese-independence sympathizers and how to open letters with a pencil
so that their tampering is undetectable to the casual observer. As the
students progress and win the trust of the teachers, they are advanced to
classes in psychological warfare and techniques of interrogation.
In keeping with the department's campaign to "resist aggression from
without," graduates of the academy have also been active away from the
island. "The political warfare system was involved in a wide range of
international operations: personnel security- investigations, censorship,
agent infiltration, front organizations, suppression of Taiwanese
independence groups, and exploitation of overseas Chinese communities. These
activities were carried out by a wide variety of agencies but overall
planning and control was theoretically the responsibility of 'the
intelligence agency of the nation's highest military organization/" the
Political Warfare Department.[10]
The most convenient cover for this international campaign of "organizational
warfare" was, of course, the same cause that had gained the Kuomintang
recognition in the first place: anti-communism. For this program, the Asian
People's Anti-Communist League and, later, the World Anti-Communist League,
were perfect vehicles.
Eventually, the Nationalists expanded their political warfare campaign into
another sector. As nations dropped their diplomatic recognition of Taiwan in
favor of mainland China in the early 1970s, the Kuomintang looked to their
few remaining friends as the last threads connecting the island to the rest
of the world. To the right-wing dictatorships in South and Central America,
which represented most of the few real allies they had left, the Taiwanese
could offer something more than trade; they could also offer political
warfare training at their academy in Peitou. The legacy of the training at
the academy, which the Americans in general and Ray Cline in particular
helped to establish, can be found today in the "unconventional warfare"
employed throughout Latin America. This transfer of expertise is, in large
part, conducted through the offices of the World Anti-Communist League.
In the 1950s and 1960s the Asian People's Anti-Communist League remained a
rather home-grown affair. While the preponderance of Taiwanese and Korean
military and intelligence officers within its ranks may have caused some to
take pause, as well as its of some of the most severe governments in the
world, representation it was hardly the well-financed, nation-linking
organization of the extreme right that it is today. Although it was able to
get conservative American congressmen and senators to attend its meetings, it
remained a rather benign and regional "paper tiger."
Other Asian nations placed varying degrees of importance on the League. In
the capitalist bastions of Asia-Hong Kong', Macao, Singapore-League
delegations consisted mostly of conservative businessmen and bankers. In
Thailand, the military was represented at the League by General Prapham
Kulapichtir. The Philippines chapter was filled with cronies of dictator
Ferdinand Marcos and those drawn from his rubber-stamp National Assembly.
Australia was represented largely by conservative members of Parliament (in
1978 one called the "international ecology movement" a communist ruse),
interspersed with neo-Nazis, racists, and Eastern European immigrants whose
roots lay in the fascist collaborationist armies of World War 11. In
Southeast Asia, the chapters were headed by members of the ruling elite like
Prince Sopasaino of the Laotian royal family, or by the military, like
Colonel Do Dang Cong, a military aide to South Vietnamese President Nguyen
Van Thieu.
Although the League began to come of age during Park Chung Hee's reign, a
much bigger boost occurred later in the 1960s, when it tapped into three
Asians with powerful political connections and a lot of money. The League's
benefactors were two former Japanese war criminals who controlled Japan's
underworld and a Korean evangelist who thought he was God.

Well that just about wraps it up then. Ray S. Cline lived in the legendary "Pink Palace" in Taiwan, near the Ping Tung
base where Oswald's ship had docked as I recall. And that Pink Palace was high on a mountaintop, rather than high on a hill as I stated previously.
Wish I had moved to this Deep Politics site years ago. The anarchistic competitive sites had their chances to elaborate, enhance or extend or expound upon these leads and instead they chose to do little or nothing in this vein, much preferring to dissuade, discourage, distribute disinformation and debilitate, deflect, defer, denounce or deviate from these topics. Wonder why? I think I know. Their loss.
With respect to all, this doesn't wrap anything up yet.
I'm very keen to learn more of the "secret mission in the mountains of Taiwan during the height of the Cold War", but not having been able to read "Hawk" Jensen's book yet, I don't know quite what he's referring to.
If anybody has read Mr Jensen's book, or is able to contact him to ask him to discuss that incident here, I'd be delighted to learn more. As I'm sure we all would.
