Gladio B: Gladio Revisited

[Jan Klimkowski]

The CIA was authorized to engage in *operations* in the early 60s. The operations were secret and supported by black bugets. The idea is that this was an effective means to acheive the objectives of the *empire*... ooops I meant free market unfettered capitalism. Democracies are meant to not interfere with other nations. But that does not suit the corps who want at their resources, and cheap labor markets and consumers to dump their junk. Nations which had subsistence aggrarian economies were changed into industrial models which required machinery. fuels, persitcide and export crops... forcing the locals to buy (spend) in the capitalist economy for products coming from offshore. Similar approaches were forced for energy and raw materials.... which were provided to transnational corps for a few fat bribes.

Gladio was part of the cold war strategy to prevent *communism* from taking hold in capitalist countries... where there were leftist parties participating in the democratic process in Italy. To get rid of the "threat" they *radicals* were infiltrated into the left and engaged in violence, bombing, assassination and drove the public to demand more state security and destruction of leftist terrorim. The infiltration and use of "false flag terrorism" was successful beyond the wildest dreams of the right.

Working with radicals and terrorists has continued to be the main operations model for the CIA and intel. They train, arm, infiltrate and inspire/plan facilitate terrorism which can then be the basis for increasing the power of the national security state, ceasing power and installing puppets as heads of state around the world. Black ops has deposed many goverments in Latin American and they are working to reshape the ME and the Causcuses using the same tactics. Blacks ops is the dirty secret of the US *democracy*. It's been going on for 6 decades and growing. All of this has been exposed by people such as Philip Agee back in the 70s.

Why would anyone be shocked or surprized by the illegality of the CIA? It (and the FBI) is sanctioned to act unlawfully (as need be) by the US government and only pays lips service to any laws - national or international.

We are a nation of the lawless!

Jeffrey - there are hundreds of pages of information and analysis about Gladio on DPF.

Your analysis is plain wrong.

Gladio has very little to do with the CIA.

You ask:

Why would anyone be shocked or surprized by the illegality of the CIA? It (and the FBI) is sanctioned to act unlawfully (as need be) by the US government and only pays lips service to any laws - national or international.

This is wrong on every level.

Firstly, if we are not shocked by illegality, then we have lost our moral compass.

Secondly, again, Gladio has very little to do with the CIA or FBI.

Thirdly, governments robustly proclaim that they control intelligence operations, and conduct them ethically, within the Rule of Law, according to national security objectives. The blowing up of civilians and the attribution of such an atrocity to a "bogey man" group is a crime against humanity, and must continue to be viewed as such.

If you want to debate the meaning and nature of Gladio on the Deep Politics Forum, kindly perform some due diligence and research first.

The subject is too important to be subject to facile and ill-informed interpretations.
