Must: 'The US is the Greatest Show on the Road', Harold Pinter, 2005, Nobel Prize Speech 

"Pinter's words were more than surreal. The BBC ignored the speech of Britain's most famous dramatist", 'The invisible government', 2007, by John Pilger

From Asia to Latin American, Africa and the Middle East, the US/Western nations create, fund, arm and train proxy terrorist groups to create chaos and take over control of targeted nations. Western media and The Terrorism Industry of biased academic 'analysts' hide reality by suppressing the notion of 'state terror' and calling Western sponsored terrorist groups 'freedom fighters' (Ronald Reagan's term for the butchers in Nicaragua) or 'moderate rebels' in Syria today etc. This legitimizes arming them. Another part of CIA's Phoenix Program is to have (fund, arm, train and lead) 'scary organizations' like Al Qaeda, ISIS, Boko Haram etc. to legitimize NATO bomb targeted nations - pretending to bomb ISIS etc. This way they can both arm the terrorists and bomb for them, which they have done several times in Syria - just as the British Parliamentary Report concluded NATO did in Libya.

  

The CIA/NATO proxies terrorize the targeted nations and make false flags, where they provide the 'information' to the Western media - no questioins asked. To refer only three articles on Syria here, (See much more on, HS CIA Phoenix Program & HS Syria):

 

 

"... in the Syrian case fabricated news and one-sided reporting have taken over the news agenda to a degree probably not seen since the First World War. The ease with which propaganda can now be disseminated is frequently attributed to modern information technology: YouTube, smartphones, Facebook, Twitter. But this is to let mainstream media off the hook (..) The real reason that reporting of the Syrian conflict has been so inadequate is that Western news organisations have almost entirely outsourced their coverage to the rebel side." Who supplies the news?, Patrick Cockburn on misreporting in Syria and Iraq, February, 2017, London Review of Books

 

"... the notion that any serious investigatory body would allow Al Nusra to provide forensic evidence in support of an investigation where it is one of only two potential culprits is mindboggling, but that is precisely what has happened.  (..) Mainstream American media outlets have willingly and openly embraced a narrative provided by Al Qaeda affiliates whose record of using chemical weapons in Syria and distorting and manufacturing “evidence” to promote anti-Assad policies in the west, including regime change, is well documented. These outlets have made a deliberate decision to endorse the view of Al Qaeda over a narrative provided by Russian and Syrian government authorities without any effort to fact check either position. These actions, however, do not seem to shock the conscience of the American public; when it comes to Syria, the mainstream American media and its audience has long ago ceded the narrative to Al Qaeda and other Islamist anti-regime elements." Wag The Dog — How Al Qaeda Played Donald Trump And The American Media, April, 2017, Scott Ritter (former UN arms inspector), Huffington Post

 

"It is clear that the programme's host, Ira Glass, was well aware of the US role in the
Guatemalan genocide - he travelled to Central America and protested US war crimes in the region. And yet Glass chose not to mention his own country's deep involvement in the crimes." 'All Journalism Is 'Advocacy Journalism', MediaLens

 

"If this document had been published sooner, it could have dramatically changed the course of the war by exposing the true face of the “moderate rebels” — and potentially saved tens of thousands of lives. That didn’t happen, and no reason has been given by the Intercept for its delay. (..) The document proves, in essence, that the armed opposition in Syria – from the earlier years of the conflict – was under the direct command of foreign governments pushing for regime change.", The Intercept Withheld NSA Doc That May Have Altered Course Of Syrian War, 2017, by Whitney Webb

Perhaps CIA's most succesful 'psyop' has been to dupe people to suppress themselves and others from taking seriously any 'Conspiracy Question' related to the CIA, Western governments and the media. CIA actually invented the term 'Conspiracy Theory' to have people in the media ridicule and suppress critical questions about the CIA, the 'deep state' and the US government. Historical knowledge about 'Conspiracies' is crucial for a sociological liberation of people's minds.

Critical thinking has been systematically suppressed in the US and Europe for decades. Pierre Bourdieu's warning is of little avail today, that the concerted assault on critical thought in the eighties and nineties is a great danger for our democracies. We have gained still more ‘totalitarian’ Western states. So, we have to realize the systematic truth of the matter, enlighten it and go against it. Don't forget the very useful academic idiots (lacking the skills to understand it all), who voluntarily defend the establishment by writing ridiculing texts about 'conspiracy theorists’ etc.

 

 

 

 

Frances S. Saunders, Who Paid the Piper: The CIA and the Cultural Cold War (1999): "This book provides a detailed account of the ways in which the CIA penetrated and influenced a vast array of cultural organizations, through its front groups and via friendly philanthropic organizations like the Ford and Rockefeller Foundations. (..) Saunders, details how and why the CIA ran cultural congresses, mounted exhibits, and organized concerts. The CIA also published and translated well-known authors who toed the Washington line, sponsored abstract art to counteract art with any social content and, throughout the world, subsidized journals that criticized Marxism, communism, and revolutionary politics and apologized for, or ignored, violent and destructive imperialist U.S. policies. The CIA was able to harness some of the most vocal exponents of intellectual freedom in the West in service of these policies, to the extent that some intellectuals were directly on the CIA payroll. (..) It is impossible to believe their claims of ignorance of CIA ties. (..) How could they ignore the absence, during their cultural congresses, of criticism of U.S. imperialist intervention in Guatemala, Iran, Greece, and Korea that led to millions of deaths? How could they ignore the gross apologies of every imperialist crime of their day in the journals in which they wrote? (..) The idea behind [it all] was to showcase U.S. culture, in order to gain cultural hegemony to support its military-economic empire." James Petras review in MR, 1999

 

 

 

The chilling perspective on the Western states' political development the past few decades is, that we are experiencing still more 'police-state' law enforcement with attacks on non-establishment media and critial counter-information. This might not look so dangerous in itself, but when we combine it with the insight that corporate powers have conspired to install neoliberalism since 1945 (still more successfully after 1975); that corporate powers have accomplished the most important part of the neoliberal revolution (according to Bourdieu), namely to take control of the financial system; and that corporate powers were behind the two former two world wars, and that the US incorporated great many nazi into their intel agencies after the war; and that Western 'information' today demonizes Russia as one Big Lie - it is chilling.  

 

I think that we are approaching the same form of chaotic 'behemoth' states, that the CIA usually install in nations that they want to control and 'regime change'. The social scientist Franz Neumann explained nazi Germany as Behemoth: The Structure and Practice of National Socialism, 1933-1944, where the fundamental values of Western civilization were betrayed and corrupted: "The Nazi organization of society involved the collapse of traditional ideas of the state, of ideology, of law, and even of any underlying rationality." 

The CIA's Phoenix Program "preys on chaos", in John F. Kennedy's words. It seems that the CIA preys still more on the Western states, so that Neumann's description becomes still more accurate for our situation: where we experience illegal wars, made on false information supported by instutions that we used to trust (more) such as the UN, Amnesty International etc.; where people don't know who and what to trust; where political Corruption and lies flourish and the responsible politicians are not made responsible for illegal actions.The US leads the way with its completely corrupted political system, finance system, law system and media system.

 

Sympthomatically, 9/11, the greatest crime in newer American history was not only not properly examined. The third tower's similar collapse without any planes entering the building was never broadcast in the mainstream media. And the evidence from the third tower was shipped away to China, so no-one could examine it. The great US war criminal, Henry Kissinger was made head of the commission to investigate. Public outrage caused Kissinger to decline. Instead, a surreal manifesto was implemented, when Philip D. Zelikow replaced Kissinger as the executive in charge of what went in, and what didn't go into the 9/11 report. Zelikow was close to Condaleeza Rice, GW Bush's National Security Advisor, having coauthored a book with her. He is also known to have been a specialist in Public Myth Making. Excerpt from Wikip on Zelikow: "While at Harvard, he worked with Ernest May and Richard Neustadt on the use, and misuse, of history in policymaking. They observed, as Zelikow noted in his own words, that "contemporary" history is "defined functionally by those critical people and events that go into forming the public's presumptions about its immediate past. The idea of 'public presumption'," he explained, "is akin to William McNeill's notion of 'public myth' but without the negative implication sometimes invoked by the word 'myth.' Such presumptions are beliefs (1) thought to be true (although not necessarily known to be true with certainty), and (2) shared in common within the relevant political community." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_D._Zelikow The commission's report refutes physics as a science and simply do not mention the third 'Tower 7'.

 

No Western politician, academic or journalist ever talk about the the US Council of Foreign Relations' and the CIA's dirty role in destroying democracies, except at best in past tense. All politicians, academics and journalists help suppress the truth about all the CIA´/corporate funded fronts around the world that spread false information; all our 'naive' public actors also, systematically and always, suppress any mentioning of the 'Phoenix Programme', where CIA fund, train, arm and help proxi terrorists to subvert states all over the world. But the US/Western nations have been behind the very terror organizations, that we have been told, that our nations are fighting. For the past forty years. From (at least) Vietnam to Al Qaeda and ISIS. So the most critically important aspect of Western 'foreign policy' is literally un-thinkable for the Western peoples. It is a fact.

 

We have the Swedish Court's word for it that the US is behind ISIS. Perhaps most convincingly explained in a 2015 article in the Guardian, by former Guardian editor Seumas Milne (who now works for Jeremy Corbyn): Now the truth emerges: how the US fuelled the rise of Isis in Syria and Iraq. Western intel agencies also hep with the recruitment of young men from Western nations, where an agency like MI5 has systematically overruled the British police's work against such recruitment. See HS on the subject. The worst part is possible that the Western corporate power, who de-facto control Western intel agencies might be complicit in terror incidents inside Western states, so-called 'false flag operations' (Operation Gladio in Europe is a historical fact) and/or be satisfied with home coming warriers that commit terror in Europe. Why? Because it suits the corporate power relations' agenda of a still more fearful and suppressed population and a still more developed police state. Former CIA Ray McGovern says that US presidents fear the CIA. And it is a fact that CIA recently tapped the UC Congress, where the director Brennan lied under oath about it. Brennan has not been charged with any wrongdoing, to my knowledge. In fact, he feels entitled to use his status to problematize the new president Trump as if he is a moral authority.  

Most 'terror attacks' in the US are motivated, enabled if not committed with the help of FBI abusing the 'anti-terror law' post 9/11. The argument is that this practice corrodes the very fundament of justice in the US. See: Inventing Terrorists: The Lawfare of Preemptive Prosecution (2014), Stephen Downs, Esq. and Kathy Manley and watch this video. 

 

"The 214-page report, “Illusion of Justice: Human Rights Abuses in US Terrorism Prosecutions,” examines 27 federal terrorism cases from initiation of the investigations to sentencing and post-conviction conditions of confinement. (..) - The US Justice Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) have targeted American Muslims in abusive counterterrorism “sting operations” based on religious and ethnic identity, Human Rights Watch and Columbia Law School’s Human Rights Institute said in a report released today. Many of the more than 500 terrorism-related cases prosecuted in US federal courts since September 11, 2001, have alienated the very communities that can help prevent terrorist crimes." 2014, US: Terrorism Prosecutions Often An Illusion 

 

A groundbreaking work of investigative journalism, The Terror Factory: Inside the FBI's Manufactured War on Terrorism (013) exposes how the FBI has, under the guise of engaging in counterterrorism since 9/11, built a network of more than 15,000 informants whose primary purpose is to infiltrate Muslim communities to create and facilitate phony terrorist plots so that the Bureau can then claim it is winning the war on terror. (..) reveals shocking information about the criminals, con men, and liars the FBI uses as paid informants (..) as well as documenting the extreme methods the FBI uses to ensnare Muslims in terrorist plots, which are in reality conceived and financed by the FBI. The book also offers unprecedented detail into how the FBI has transformed from a reactive law enforcement agency to a proactive counterterrorism organization that traps hapless individuals in manufactured terrorist plots in order to justify the $3 billion it spends every year fighting terrorism." The Terror Factory, Amazon

 

Glen Greenwald explains: "The known facts from this latest case seem to fit well within a now-familiar FBI pattern whereby the agency does not disrupt planned domestic terror attacks but rather creates them, then publicly praises itself for stopping its own plots." The corporate media play along: "The DOJ’s press release predictably generated an avalanche of scary media headlines hailing the FBI. CNN: “FBI says plot to attack U.S. Capitol was ready to go.” MSNBC: “US terror plot foiled by FBI arrest of Ohio man.” Wall St. Journal: “Ohio Man Charged With Plotting ISIS-Inspired Attack on U.S. Capitol”." Greenwald quotes a judge ruling: "The federal judge presiding over his case, Colleen McMahon, repeatedly lambasted the government for wholly manufacturing the plot. (..) The Government indisputably “manufactured” the crimes of which defendants stand convicted. The Government invented all of the details of the scheme (..) The Government funded the entire project. And the Government, through its agent, offered the defendants large sums of money, contingent on their participation in the heinous scheme. (..) offering a jihadist opportunity to a man who had no contact with any extremist groups and no history of anything other than drug crimes." Greenwald writes: "In 2012, Petra Bartosiewicz in The Nation reviewed the post-9/11 body of terrorism cases and concluded: 'Nearly every major post-9/11 terrorism-related prosecution has involved a sting operation, at the center of which is a government informant. In these cases, the informants — who work for money or are seeking leniency on criminal charges of their own — have crossed the line from merely observing potential criminal behavior to encouraging and assisting people to participate in plots that are largely scripted by the FBI itself. Under the FBI’s guiding hand, the informants provide the weapons, suggest the targets and even initiate the inflammatory political rhetoric that later elevates the charges to the level of terrorism.'

 

Greenwald explains and concludes with plea that will not happen in the US corporate media: "Something has to be done to justify all that terrorism spending. (..) Media outlets have a responsibility to investigate the FBI’s claims, not mindlessly repeat them while parading their alarmed faces and scary graphics." Latest FBI Claim of Disrupted Terror Plot Deserves Much Scrutiny and Skepticism, 2015, The Intercept From a European perspective, Greenwald also writes this scary thing (referring to the article below): "The U.S. Government has been aggressively pressuring its allies to adopt the same “sting” tactics against their own Muslim citizens ...", Eric Holder Urges U.S. Allies To Adopt FBI Terror Sting Tactics, 2014, Huffpost  

Then there were the Anthrax 'terror incidents', which were later shown to be have been executed by US state agencies: The 2001 Anthrax Deception: The Case for a Domestic Conspiracy, 2014, Graeme MacQueen. Nevertheless, 9/11 and the Anthrax affair resulted in an anti-constitutional and most suppressive law the so-called Patriot Act. 

 

"The Patriot Act drove a stake through the heart of the Bill of Rights, violating at least six of the 10 original amendments — the First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh and Eighth Amendments—and possibly the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Amendments, as well. The Patriot Act also redefined terrorism so broadly that many non-terrorist political activities such as protest marches, demonstrations and civil disobedience were considered potential terrorist acts, thereby rendering anyone desiring to engage in protected First Amendment expressive activities as suspects of the surveillance state." Renewing the Patriot Act While America Sleeps, 2011, J Whitehead, Huffington Post

 

"Under the Patriot Act and NDAA, any notion of due process has been shredded for US citizens, and of course the situation is beyond mad when considering the psychopathic torture carried out at Bagram AFB outside Kabul, Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo Bay, and the globe-spanning “rendition archipelago” which has to be assumed is still ongoing, despite Obama’s past-tense use of the phrase “we tortured some folks”, spoken back in 2014." The Great Unraveling, Dec. 2017, W Hawes

 

 

"The Information Awareness Office (IAO) was established by the United States Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) in January 2002 to bring together several DARPA projects focused on applying surveillance and information technology to track and monitor terrorists and other asymmetric threats to U.S. national security by achieving "Total Information Awareness" (TIA). Information Awareness Office, Wikipedia 

 

"On the Patriot Act's suppression of dissent rather than terrorism (p.199)
"At first blush, invoking the Patriot Act contradicted its objectives. However, on closer
examination, prosecuting political defendants like me leverages the law to its most logical purpose. The act creates a legal framework to interrupt individual questioning of the government in power. The Patriot Act equates terrorism with any civil disobedience that challenges government policy. Both are cast in the category of Sedition. Using that line of reasoning, the Patriot Act applies the same tools to smash political dissention that Congress intended to interrupt the workings of terrorist cells... (..) Free thinking leads to criticism of government policy. Criticism must be treated as a threat to the functioning of the State, and crushed when necessary to protect the elite. In short, the Patriot Act lays a road to the Gulags. Most Americans don't understand -- yet -- that it creates a judicial framework for fascism, and the beginning of all dictatorship in America." From review of - Extreme Prejudice: The Terrifying Story of the Patriot Act and the Cover Ups of 9/11 and Iraq, 2010, Susan Lindauer -

 

Amazon description of Extreme Prejudice: "What if the government decided to invent a great lie to justify a disastrous war? What would happen to the people who know the truth? Extreme Prejudice delivers an explosive, high tension expose of the real facts surrounding the CIA's advance warning of 9/11 and an insider's look at Iraqi pre-war intelligence, told by one of the very few US assets covering Iraq before the war. It reveals the depths of deception by leaders in Washington and London to promote a successful image of their terrorism policy, and the shocking brutality to suppress the truth of their failures from Americans and the world community."

 

Praise for 9/11 Ten Years Later: When State Crimes against Democracy Succeed, 2012, by David Ray Griffin: "Why yet another book on 9/11? Because, as David Ray Griffin points out clearly and persuasively, 9/11 continues to be not only the greatest crime in American history, but also the most strenuously covered up, and certainly the crime with the greatest political consequences. He shows how over a decade the events of 9/11 and the reports on them have been used to attack the American democratic system. Above all, he documents the success of this attack by the refusal of the media, the academy, and religious institutions to openly discuss these matters, and by the numbers of critics who at one extreme have made fools of themselves in echoing the Orwellian official version, and at the other extreme have been either fired or silenced after their dissent from it." Peter Dale Scott, poet, former Canadian diplomat, professor at the University of California (Berkeley), and author of American War Machine

And the above 'developments' only add to the US federal state agencies' tradition of corrupt policies: "President Trump’s firing of FBI chief James Comey last May spurred much of the media to rally around America’s most powerful domestic federal agency. But the FBI has a long record of both deceit and incompetence. Five years ago, Americans learned that the FBI was teaching its agents that “the FBI has the ability to bend or suspend the law to impinge on the freedom of others.” This has practically been the Bureau’s motif since its creation in 1908. (..) After the debacle of the Palmer raids, the bureau devoted its attention to the nation’s real enemies: the U.S. Congress. The bureau targeted “senators whom the Attorney General saw as threats to America. The Bureau was breaking into their offices and homes, intercepting their mail, and tapping their telephones,” as Tim Weiner recounted in his 2012 book Enemies: The History of the FBI. The chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee was illegally targeted because the bureau feared he might support diplomatic recognition of Soviet Russia. Hoover, who ran the FBI from 1924 until his death in 1972, built a revered agency that utterly intimidated official Washington. The FBI tapped the home telephone of a Supreme Court clerk, and at least one Supreme Court Justice feared the FBI had bugged the conference room where justices privately discussed cases. In 1945, President Harry Truman wrote in his diary, “We want no Gestapo or Secret Police. FBI is tending in that direction…. This must stop.” But Truman did not have the gumption to pull in the reins. The bureau’s power soared after Congress passed the Internal Security Act of 1950, authorizing massive crackdowns on suspected subversives. Hoover compiled a list of more than 20,000 “potentially or actually dangerous” Americans who could be seized and locked away at the president’s command. (..) From 1956 through 1971, the FBI’s COINTELPRO program conducted thousands of covert operations to incite street warfare between violent groups, to get people fired, to portray innocent people as government informants, and to cripple or destroy left-wing, black, communist, white racist, and anti-war organizations." The FBI's forgotten criminal record, 2017, James Bovard

 

Bush/Cheney worked systematically to undermine the US constitution and destroy the world: Bush and Cheney: How They Ruined America and the World,, 2017, David Ray Griffin. Obama continued this effort (Trump Must Expose Obama’s Abuses of Power, 2017, Bovard) and 'Trump' - all recent US presidents are puppet names for the US deep state working behind the scene - will no doubt continue along this path.
