The collapsing US military & economic empire is making Washington & NATO even more dangerous. US could not beat the Taliban but thinks it can take on China-Russia-Iran...a sign of psychopathology for sure. We must all do more to help stop this western corporate arrogance that puts the future generations lives in despair. @BruceKGagnon

LOOKING DEEPER AT CIA





With the growing questions surrounding the resignation of CIA director David Petraeus it is wise to take a moment and look back at some of past debate surrounding the out-of-control spy agency.

The videos above are from an investigative report by CBS News and Mike Wallace in 1967 exposing how the CIA used NGO’s as cover throughout the 50's and 60's.  The investigation took place 45 years ago but these practices continue to this today.

One such CIA front group was the Business International Corporation where Obama worked for one year after college - what is often called his "lost" year which he speaks little about.

Can there be any doubt that since the assassination of JFK the CIA runs things in America and beyond.  Soon after JFK was taken out by the CIA and the mafia former President Harry Truman had an Op-ed published in the Washington Post on December 22, 1963, one month to the day after JFK was killed. Truman wrote:

“I think it has become necessary to take another look at the purpose and operations of our Central Intelligence Agency - CIA…..

“For some time I have been disturbed by the way the CIA has been diverted from its original assignment. It has become an operational and at times a policy-making arm of the Government. This has led to trouble and may have compounded our difficulties in several explosive areas.

“We have grown up as a nation, respected for our free institutions and for our ability to maintain a free and open society. There is something about the way the CIA has been functioning that is casting a shadow over our historic position and I feel that we need to correct it.”

The Truman piece was ignored by the political class.  Ever since the CIA has been on the loose.
