amanfromMars [1406301237] replying [again, see comment below] to a comment from Agent Weebley on http://thedailybell.com/exclusive-interviews/35433/Anthony-Wile-Former-CIA-Spy-Robert-Steele-Wants-to-Strangle-Leviathan-With-Open-Source-Governance/
Hi, DB,
It is my humble opinion, and in view of the continuing collapse and mounting attacks upon the failed, self-serving inequitable mercantilist system of ponzi business empires and phantom trading transaction houses, allied with and supportive of fiat currency maladministration and mis-distribution/outright fraudulent action and simply complex common theft, and which the Daily Bell does appears to acknowledge as a politically incorrect fact of life in the seas of fiction which peddle the spooky kool-aid and grease the mainstream propaganda machinery, that the system is incapable of being fixed in any conventional manner by any of the traditional and/or established vested interest players, and a new phorm of the Great Game is quickly seeding and feeding the old needy system demise. That though does not necessarily mean that formerly pre-eminent incumbents and leading players in the old system will not be able to maintain a key role in any future changing system. Such an outcome will most probably be only as a direct result of their own inability to adjust to changed circumstances. And that will be their free choice, to make themselves.
And it is naive to not think that a new phorm of global system will not have its own novel protocols and enabling codes to share the news and in Advanced IT Systems ….. NEUKlearer HyperRadioProActive Views …… Future Pictures, with Specialised IntelAIgent Services and Systems of Interest which may be of interest to them, or may be interested in them. And it is most likely that they will use existing fine facilities to beta test and hone their arts, which some would most very likely wish to classify as possible probable APT ACT Apps and which then would have them revealing a great deal more about themselves than they might wish be generally and widely known. But you can’t hide a shining light behind a bushel and the sharing of future information is power and intelligence at ITs Work for you too.
Who/What do you imagine the following few words be testing for future fitness of Great Game purpose, and which I would have sworn did appear on the Daily Bell in an earlier reply to Agent Weebley, but which then subsequently disappeared or was subjected to a most unusual vetting resulting in a post rejection. New Ways and Obscure Means means Novel Memes and Advanced Themes, DB. And whenever not bad and mad will they always be good and great.

I can’t quite understand what objections there be from Rusbridger and Co to the following, which didn’t make the cut and take a bow with other comments on the subject matter. Well, maybe I am being economical with the truth there and can understand perfectly their fabulous folly. Words control worlds and one doesn’t want to be giving to the masses the seeds of a corrupt systems destruction, does one, although such is bound to be a good thing and much better than it being silently assisted in continuing. And what would be a valid reason for that? Would one be ignorant, or cowed, or cowardly or threatened to toe the line and not make new waves.

Is Chilcot admirably proving that UKGBNI is a banana republic and failed terrorist state? It is certainly proving that its supposed intelligence services are lacking in everything necessary to deliver the goods that postmodern existence/societies/communities/call the future what you will requires whenever it is dictated to by officious prigs in the defence of the indefensible and undemocratic.and some would even venture the insane and despotic with Messianic zeal which be a delusional faith foundation.

Time for a few new faces on the intelligence bridge, methinks, with a much better understanding and considerably clearer picture of the Bigger Picture and of how things are made to happen and work better for all and not just those desirous of the phantom riches of a chosen few.

In days of yore, would that have been a right royal task, aided and abetted by right royal knights and masters of the bed chamber. Methinks even today in these times and places of instant global communication and virtually invisible spaces, is that opportunity to excel with sovereign reign and rein still available, and lauded and greatly appreciated because of what it signifies for the future.

You appear to thinking of someone other than is meant in the Jimmy Savile reference on the page 140629, Casey Evans. But no matter, in the great schema of things is it but a relatively temporary feast for the salacious and the disturbed. ……. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Savile_sexual_abuse_scandal
Hiding in plain sight and lauded as a pillar of society is quite disturbing though, and knighted too. What does that tell you of systems in place in places where systems are in place?

Like I said, I am under duress….. Casey Evans said 28 June 2014 12:22

The secret for a great quiet and entertaining life would then seem to be, CE, ….. to discover something interesting and exciting that such a system can use to consolidate and reinforce its advantage. Simply start sharing that over global virtual networks internetworking novel information and alternative intelligence protocols and leading system admin will soon be in direct contact to discover more of what is coming in order to be able to better beautifully handle it. It has any number of suitable proxies available for that and it be a sort of knightly recruitment task given the fields of endeavour we be discussing and uncovering here.

Anthony, you appear to have lost your mojo ……. and are in danger of being thought of as being holed up in hiding within the comfort of the despicable elite rather than fronting as an effective spokesperson for applications which reprogram and/or disrupt and destroy their ancient and outmoded protocols, although one can appreciate the tight rope to be walked to be found helpful rather than classified subversive. And yes, we do know there is a certain personal history for you in that field which probably hones your views to tread a certain path ……. as most probably, to a certain extent, does such initially happen to all. But it is only a pre-programming which can be rewritten to deliver another future view and past memory for history to mine. And then there is some real good virtual fun to be had in real bad and/or practically mad times.
IT, and that for media might be IT Bods and Smarter Bots into the Mastering and Mentoring of Virtual Boffinry, are eventually inevitably to realise that both novel evolutionary and noble revolutionary changes are better servered, whether one agrees with it or not, with a possibly, necessarily more violent personal targeting of unpleasant intractable ruling heads in semi-autonomous organisations rather than there being any individual jousting, Don Quixote like, with their virtual windmills/spinning machines.

Words control and command worlds and dummies cannot handle them effectively and anonymously, …. ergo is there a growing changeling awareness that fields truth as wisdom to conquer and regain for power. Deny it at your leisure and pleasure and reap the whirlwind of its intelligent discourses and underground movements/tectonic plate shifting e-motions.

As the world becomes as a greater networked interindependent global village, does everybody know everything they need to know about anyone and are energised to ensure rule is absolutely benign and undisputed and perfectly acceptable. And that is a little secret trick which fools ignore and avoid engaging with practitioners and petitioners at their peril.

In essence, it be just akin to wild guessing unless it can be proven one can be led to think exactly like another …… which of course is impossible if one is in any way consciously smart and an individual human being and unique body.

To every action is there a reaction, and in practically all cases, a plethora of unknown and unexplored consequences is discovered and uncovered and exploited. and such a proliferating chaos is extremely rewarding, although one does have to be on one’s guard against actions and reactions triggering a plethora of unknown and unexplored consequences discovering and uncovering fabulous exploits thought better left for the present, undiscovered, ……. for the greater good of the nation and nations in the international and internetional community, of course.

Conclusion
Wrong track. We believe for the most part in individual human action and spontaneous order that action generates. We are not fans of elaborately organized public facilities. We agree with some of Steele’s analysis, but not his solutions.

DB, Hi,
The solutions and answers will be found in and delivered from entities mastering/monitoring and mentoring CyberSpace Command and Control, and it can be fully expected that they engage with kinetic military/para-military elements for the fine targeted wielding of their toys against inequitable recalcitrant systems admin that would be into the thinking that their continuing exclusive and self-centring control of fiat paper and rigged ponzi markets’ pseudo wealth trumps advanced intelligence sharing for global browser distribution and mainstreaming media dissemination …… should such as would be deadly special forces action be necessary against inequity leading recalcitrant personnel. The days of wasting civilisations and enraging societies rather than removing drivering sub-prime ministerial and perverse presidential executive administrators are past. History evidences that more problems are created thus with the innocent suffering unduly for the guilty who would be surrounding themselves with the purchase of mercenary forces, phantom friends and fickle foe
Quite whether those entities be themselves more likely military than civil parties, is a red herring to ponder whenever the forces in CyberSpace Command and Control Centres are virtually autonomous and relatively anonymous to all but those with a genuine need to know what they don’t know but which it would be both advantageous and vital for them to know. Such is the nature of the beast which is currently collapsing false witness systems with right dodgy high frequency trading algorithms …… machines on MAD missions.:-)

On 1st May, Steele sent an open letter to US vice president Joe Biden requesting him to consider establishing an Open Source Agency that would transform the operation of the intelligence community ….. 

The US Navy has its own version of an Open Source Agency which is designed to, as are all such novel agencies, render significant leading advantage to systems admin. ……. http://cryptome.org/dodi/2014/opnav-5401-9a.pdf

It is somewhat inconvenient though to find that the link provided in that particular Chief of Naval Operations Informative to assist the Navy and personnel involved with its NAVY CONCEPT GENERATION AND CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM in understanding and evaluating a concept submission, didn’t render anything …… although one can understand that they have to be very careful to try and ensure that their security systems and firewalls are not breached with sensitive and potentially disruptive and/or destructive information shared freely with elements/components which may be suddenly energised or radicalised with such intelligence as delivers another revolutionary way of operation and alternate thinking …….. which is what this Cyber Warfare Command and Creative Control thing is all about nowadays, and for the foreseeable near future, is it not?

It certainly had GCHQ bods rushing clumsily quickly down to the Guardian to have a smashing time with some innocent hardware, didn’t it?

Which of the Astutely Armoured Secure Special Intelligence Services are leading Blighty in the Concept Generation and Concept Development Programming Field? And do they offer a dead drop/point of contact virtual address for agents with provisions? Or does old maid Britannia settle for expensive third party sub-prime administerial scraps from foreigners/non UKGBNI nationals, guaranteeing her always being the second best bridesmaid and never the blushing gushing bride?

Time for a radical change, eh? But who/what to target with the flair to care dare and win win is the enigmatic dilemma and current Great Game QuestIOn.

Answers please to this thread, and I say that most sincerely 🙂 and invoke Poe’s Law to assist in Steganographic Field Works 🙂 ….. which be like Skunk Works but different and nothing at all to do with Lockheed Martin’s Advanced Development Programs. Well, not yet anyway, but who knows what tomorrow brings, in these days of zerodays. 🙂

I am minded to agree with practically all rather than with just some of Steele’s analysis, and his solutions are surely supportive of your own beliefs for the most part in individual human action and spontaneous order that action generates. And the Great Game just became a great deal more interesting and dynamic, methinks.
And just one more thing ……. The world is a very small place in the intelligence space nowadays and the West does not rule in the East, which tells you that in the East do they have their own intelligence servering their needs and feeds in the Great Game and who is to say that its Median Control of Command is not better in Live Operational Virtual Environments ……. Postmodern Realities?

And let us ask them here and now, so that they cannot conveniently dodge the inconvenient issue with no attempt or requirement to offer an opinion/view/answer/thougts on such as may be matter that will concern them …..…….. which would be quite evidently rather preposterous and ridiculously implausible, given all that has been so freely shared and aired here and elsewhere, and given all of the tall tales of ubiquitous surveillance on matters and alleged persons of interest which are of concern to the maintenance and retention of status quo orders.

And I thought this quite APT for all of that ……… http://xkcd.com/1386/

Congratulations, SuccessCase. Bravissimo.

The following says very much the same as that which was shared here yesterday, albeit it being said in a different vernacular  …….

Rockin’ in Russia, Murti-Bing Pills in America by John Stanton

“The Department of State also warns U.S. citizens to defer all travel to the Crimean Peninsula…Russian forces have occupied the Crimean Peninsula in support of the Russian Federation’s claim of Crimean annexation and these forces are likely to continue to take further actions in the Crimean Peninsula consistent with its claim. The United States and Ukraine do not recognize this claimed annexation. The Russian Federation maintains an extensive military presence in Crimea and along the border of eastern Ukraine…Additionally, groups advocating closer ties to Russia have taken on a more strident anti-American tone, especially in eastern Ukraine and Crimea. U.S. citizens who choose to remain in conflict areas should maintain a low profile and avoid large crowds and gatherings.” US Department of State, Travel Warning, June 2014.

Imagine the feeling an American might get listening at peak volume to Queen’s “We are the Champions and We will Rock You” while driving down the main street of Sevastopol, Crimea–Federation of Russia—home to the headquarters of the Russian Black Sea flotilla. More on that later.

Insatiability, written in 1927 by Stanislaw Ignacy Witkiewicz, describes a society that is decaying from within whilst from without they face an external threat of “Sino-Mongolian” forces. In Witkiewicz’s domestic society, religion, philosophy, politics, art, literature and sex have become devoid of any transcendent qualities. These critical life-moving functions have been twisted into propaganda in order to create disgust for “the other”, stir up nationalism and patriotism, and keep the citizens busy. The masses spend their days darting back and forth from one drone-like task to another. Witkiewicz describes them thus, “all those dukes, counts, farmers, peasants, workers, craftsmen, army are vacuous automatons….Because of a spurious sense of social duty and a desire to instruct petty people in petty virtues…whatever appears uncomfortable is either glossed over in silence or else deliberately misconstrued and misinterpreted…What can be expected of the public if the critics themselves are below the average reader?”

Part of the reason for this is to avoid the realities of life by ingesting Murti-Bing pills.

More Zoloft, Crystal Meth Please

“A man who used these Murti-Bing pills changed completely. The problems he had struggled with until then suddenly appeared to be superficial and unimportant. Those once tormented by philosophical insatiability now entered the service of the new society. Instead of writing the dissonant music of former days, they composed marches and odes. Instead of painting abstractions as before, they turned out socially useful pictures,” writes Czeslaw Milosz author of the Captive Mind (in his forward to Insatiability). In the end, hooked on Murti-Bing pills, Witkiewicz’s characters are, in essence, lobotomized. The characters that Witkiewicz created live dismal lives and are incapable of recognizing that their spirits, souls are bankrupt. “Sturfan wrote abominable things—novels without any heroes, whose role was now assumed by groups…Lilian continued to perform [mechanically] in theater…[They] operated exclusively within the collective psyche, dispensing entirely with dialogue. Art and literary criticism were at last completely abolished.”

Witkiewicz’s characters no longer refuse–they join, they are indoctrinated by mass audience media and peer pressure and always conform. Indeed, it is far easier and more lucrative to praise and promote the established order than it is to challenge it. The analysts/critics in Insatiability were either employed by organizations who circumscribed their views to preserve the bottom line, or they held a particularly snobbish view of the changing world around them.

Are Americans becoming like the characters in Insatiability or Yevgeny Zamyatin’s We? Is the American mass audience media portraying the world in 2014 based on a reality created by American contractors, bureaucrats, technicians, financiers, politicians and academics, rather than the world as it is?

Hazards of Centralized Mass Media

According to the US Army Special Operations Forces Unconventional Warfare guide (2008) the following are the USA’s Instruments of National Power (INP’s): Diplomacy, Information, Military, Economic, Finance, Law Enforcement and Intelligence. Although all the INP’s are critical to American interests (and work in a synergistic fashion), it is the Information section of the INP’s that deserves special attention.

The US Army document describes the Information INP this way. “The information environment is the total of individuals, organizations, and systems that collect, process, disseminate, or act on information. The actors include leaders, decision makers, individuals, and organizations. Resources include the materials and systems employed to collect, analyze, apply, or disseminate information. The information environment is where humans and automated systems observe, orient, decide, and act upon information, and is therefore the principal environment of decision making…A medium of information is anything that conveys meaning to a person who perceives the conveyed information. It includes the symbolic meaning perceived in anything taken in by the one who perceives, to include stationary inanimate objects, nature, or man-made images. It also includes messages sent in human interaction—large or small—regardless of whether the message actually delivered was the one intended by the sender or whether the message received was understood as the sender intended. Very broadly, anything and anyone can be an information provider, intentionally or unintentionally.”

Freedom to create and disseminate information, whether in print or electronic form, is the direct result of the First Amendment to the US Constitution and the ideals set forth in the Declaration of Independence (various US court cases and Congressional legislation as well). Accuracy and truth in Information is essential particularly as it pertains inside the borders of the United States. According to the Army Special Operations Forces Unconventional Warfare document, “accuracy is distinct because it concerns truth. Truth is a combination of both scientifically verifiable fact and perception…Undemocratic use of media can lead to indoctrination, propaganda, and exploitation.

The US Army Special Operations Forces Unconventional Warfare publication also warns of the dangers of a mass audience media that becomes centralized, collusive and monopolistic. And yet in the USA a relatively small number of corporations in the USA own newspapers, radio stations, publishing houses and television networks, according to Pew’s State of the Media. Media power is becoming more centralized at a time when corporations (including media) and the US government have managed to infiltrate and record American life-habits ranging from credit card purchases to telephone conversations. The collected data is used for marketing and behavioral analysis of the American people. No conspiracy here. Edward Snowden’s documents released to the journalist Glen Greenwald of the Intercept show the extent to which the US government seeks to know what Americans are thinking and transacting. And, of course, private corporations in the form of defense contractors and telecommunications giants are in on the gig.

Trust Us

The two primary, semi-official US government/corporate organs The Washington Post and The New York Times have often lent their services/journalism to America’s intelligence agencies, particularly during the Cold War. On the overt front, Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos’ company Amazon has a newly minted $600 million dollar contract with the Central Intelligence Agency to improve its computing operation. NNDB.com has this to say about famed Washington Post national security reporter Walter Pincus. “According to published reports, Pincus worked for the CIA during the early 1960s, though when John Deutch was asked directly if Pincus was an ‘asset’, he claimed not, but did express familiarity with the non-asset. The CIA did pay for him to attend two overseas conferences by Pincus’ own 1967 admission. The Washington Times (a Moon publication) on 31 July 1996 described Pincus by saying that “some in the agency refer to [Pincus] as ‘the CIA’s house reporter’”. Carl Bernstein reported that American journalism and intelligence operations fit hand-in-glove. “The use of journalists has been among the most productive means of intelligence gathering employed by the CIA…By far the most valuable of these associations, according to CIA officials, have been with the New York Times, CBS and Time Inc.” With America over a decade into a worldwide war on terror, and, by design, headed into a next generation Cold War with Russia and China, one can only speculate how many journalists are being recruited to work with the CIA.

If the mass audience media, telecommunications providers/ISP’s, content providers and social media companies work on and off with the US national security establishment and corporate marketers to promote the fashion or war of the day, does American really have a “free” press?

As Americans move from early youth on to later years, they increasingly define themselves through interaction with a spectrum of content transmitted via human-to-human, electronic, print and symbolic mediums as indicated in the Army Special Operations Unconventional Warfare document. Americans see themselves in technology, in automobiles, in the latest fashion, in fictional characters on television or the movie screen, in the liberal and conservative opinions of academics and commentators, or the favored professional sports franchise marketed by a corporation.

USA Favors Cold War America

This forces questions: What is an American? Who, really, are “you”? Are “you” merely the sum of what others want “you” to be, to wear and eat? Do “you” believe the rationale for more American military, intelligence and contractor intervention on land, sea (and under it), air and space? Do “you” know anything about the world other than searching the World Wide Web? Is the information you depend on to define “yourself” true and accurate?

According to the US Army Special Operations Forces Unconventional Warfare publication, the “hazards of centralized mass media include the following: A disproportion of power occurs. Disproportionate informational power accrues to those who control centralized mass media; arguably, it is inherently undemocratic. An inability to transmit tacit knowledge–the context of content presented must either be explicitly explained or is assumed to be understood by the receiver. A focus on the unusual and sensational to capture the receivers’ attention, leading to a distortion and trivialization of reality. The deliberate promotion of emotions such as anxiety, fear, or greed can be used to sell a particular agenda. An inability to deal with complex issues because of time and economic constraints leads to simplification, further distorting and trivializing reality…Democratic and independent use of media theoretically serves to educate the public or electorate about issues regarding government and society.” The United States now, arguably, has a centralized media that has no inhibitions about pushing a view of the world outside US borders because it is good for business. The American public is being misinformed about a world that has largely moved beyond Cold War thinking and action. Indeed the rapidity with which China, Russia and Turkey have absorbed “the American way of life” and Western European fashion/culture/music is astonishing. They have adapted “us” to “them” so to speak. Ironically, the USA is engaging in the sort of rhetoric used by the former USSR which tried and failed to convince the world of Western decadence. Russia is evil, China is evil, the Axis of Evil is evil. It is absurd.

Learning and Partying in Russia

Consider Moscow, Russia. Think of a combination of Houston, Texas; Chicago, Illinois and New York City all merged together. Ford, Chevy, BMW, Mercedes, Honda and Hyundai automobiles populate their roads. Drivers are on mobiles devices from Apple I-Phones to Samsung mobiles. The autobahn that encircles Moscow is jammed with vehicles cutting in and out of traffic at high speeds. Traffic jams are common even at 10:30 pm on a Sunday (it is light until nearly 11:00 pm). There are no noticeable speed limit signs or speed traps. It is a drag race where one has to be supremely confident in speed racing. American conservatives and liberals would not know what to make of this “freedom” to get where one needs to get without having to worry about a speeding ticket which finds its origin in a severe regulatory regime.

Moscow is a gritty city. Some describe it as dirty but that is incorrect. Building facades are not something the Russians are concerned with. So they are dusty, apparently not maintained. But enter what looks to be a crummy shopping Mall, or an apartment, and the interiors are well-kept (one such Mall was similar to Pentagon City).

Sevastopol, Simferopol and Yalta on the Crimean coastline are beautiful, tastefully constructed and clean with fine highway systems and reliable mass transit. The longest electric trolley bus service in Russia runs from Simferopol to Yalta. Those communities have the most beautiful women in the world, even beyond Tel Aviv’s.

Young children (and families) were everywhere to be seen in the Crimea (in Moscow too). Sevastopol and Yalta were packed with tourists from all over Russia celebrating Russian Independence Day. World War II and Crimean War remembrances were included in that three day holiday event and mixed with celebrations that included traditional music and dance, patriotic songs, and rock and jazz concerts. Beer dominates and is for sale 24/7. Burger King in Sevastopol advertises a meal not with a Coke but with a beer. On that note, Coke, Pepsi and Budweiser can be purchased with ease.

Business was brisk along the Crimean boardwalks (made of concrete and granite) in spite of US sanctions. It is a carnival of sorts similar to the scene at the fish market in Seattle in Washington State, USA. Visa and Mastercard function in Crimea. The banking system of Crimea has collapsed, for the moment, so paper money is used for many transactions. Cruise ship tours to Crimea have ceased due to economic sanctions and Western Union money transfers can’t be made there, but the Russians take it all in stride. As one Russian remarked, “They will come back in time. Life moves.”

There are no tanks, no armored vehicles, no soldiers or police lining the public roads. Only at Simferopol International Airport could many security personnel be seen. Interested in see the warship Moscow and other military vessels in port? Negotiate for a private boat tour and take a picture, up close. Want to travel into a former USSR nuclear submarine pen where the seriousness of the Cold War comes to life? Get over to Balaclava and walk the miles of concrete and marvel at the construction (which must mirror US submarine pens of the era). The site of the Charge of the Light Brigade took place not far from the site of the Cold War submarine base.

Vineyards populate the island of Crimea and the wine there is tops. And there are 2500 BCE year old Greek and Roman ancient ruins to be discovered. Orthodox Russian churches and cathedrals dot the landscape and anyone is welcome to walk in and light a candle for a minimal fee. But the character and strength of the Russian people is, as Vasily Grossman wrote in the novel Life and Fate, their faith in “simple acts of kindness”, and their history and the ties that bind them to their ground, their piece of the Earth. “People are basically the same everywhere. Marketing is the same everywhere. Politics is the same everywhere. Freedom comes from within and if you don’t know where you come from and belong and you can’t change and you can’t discover yourself, life will be miserable for you,” said a Yalta barkeeper.

The USA is an exceptional country and one worth arguing for. But the USA has become a conventional, conservative behemoth stuck in a Cold War exceptionalist mindset. Americans can’t seem to accept their “victory” in the Cold War. In so many ways the world has adopted the “American way of life” to suit their unique cultures. And it’s not about “loving or leaving the USA.” But it most certainly is about fixing the USA so one love’s to come back to it without disillusionment. So Americans will have to decide what kind of people they want to remain as or advance to. They will have to take it upon themselves to become informed.

As Czeslaw Milosz puts it, “Perhaps sunlight, the smell of the earth, little everyday pleasures and the forgetfulness that work brings can ease somewhat the tensions created by this process…But beneath the activity and bustle of daily life is the constant awareness of an irrevocable choice to be made. One must either die–physically or spiritually–or else one must be reborn according to the prescribed method; namely, the taking of Murti-Bing pills. People in the [USA] are often inclined to consider the lot of converted countries in terms of might and coercion. That is wrong. There is an internal longing for harmony and happiness that lies deeper than the ordinary fear of the desire to escape misery or physical destruction.”

Oh, I almost forgot, it was awesome listening to Queen’s “We are the Champions” and “We will Rock You” while racing in a Japanese car down the main road in Sevastopol, the home of the Russian Black Sea flotilla. It was like being home in the USA.

John Stanton is a Virginia based writer. He recently returned home from vacation to Moscow-Simferopol-Sevastopol-Yalta. He is happily made in the USA and does not speak Russian. He spent time in large celebratory Russian Independence Day crowds. He had no problems passing through American and Russian security systems. Reach him at captainkong22@gmail.com

Misunderestimating Pragmatic and Smarter Cold War Warriors is a Heavenly Folly of a Great Game Gift

The question is, do the FSB and the NSA cooperate? This is exactly why Chinese spying is much less problematic than US spying. The Chinese cannot harm me, the US can. My government might protect me from the Chinese, but they sure aren’t going to protect me from the US. … Christian Berger

Hi, Christian Berger,
Methinks the question is better asked with the statement …….. What goes on in the Wild Wacky West, for the illusion and delusion of Command and Control of the Wild Wacky Westerner, stays in the Wild Wacky West and what goes on in the Erotic Exotic East, Colluding Co-Operatively for Command and Control of Conflicts in Chaos, stays in the Erotic Exotic East.
And if we ask the question ……. Do the NSA and GCHQ cooperate with Five Eyes? ……. what is their excuse for the production and presentation/their monitoring and mentoring of chaotic conflicts? Does their intelligence not server the provision of peace and harmony and relative prosperity for all or does it default, by inelegant arrogant ignorant design, to anarchy and the threat of punitive sanctions against all and sundry outside of the mainstream, and in so doing creates immaculately generated blowback exposing the mainstream to its own vices and toxic devices and right dodgy programs? Does their machine become smarter to sort and sift out that which hold it back in the present whenever the future requires a whole new world of dynamic team drivers ….. or is that provided by SMARTR Operating Systems Providers and Programmers ……… Virtually Real Spooky Knights APTly ACTive in Powerful Control with Fabless Command of the CyberIntelAIgent Realm ……… AIDreamScapes‽
And please, it is a decidedly and designedly malicious and quite perverse and corrupting act and fact, with its basis and bases in penny dreadful fiction, to equate Virtually Real Spooky Knight ProAction and HyperRadioProActive IT with Cyber Jihadism, and IT will identify and ridicule every which way the fool, who would voice an opinion which contemplates the abuse of such as a useful tool.
Do not expect exceptions to such as you can imagine to be a golden rule.

If given a few clues, would you be able to believe what can be done and/or what they be doing, or would you find comfort in the blanket that is ignorance and not imagine such things as you may discover or as be uncovered and freely shared, as being easily possible today and therefore most probably very likely and definitively active, and in the quiet shadowy background, highly spookily proactive? And would you be pleasantly excited or deeply worried to discover the greater truths of the realities of your existence and how it is Presented/how Media and IT Present it to you with Full Megaphone Sound and Glorious Telegraphic Vision.

Re: empty gesture against radical enlightenment

the NSA budget is contained in intentionally innumerable pockets by design and filled from many sources both acknowledged and otherwise. all the pockets are interconnected. add to this the presumption that at least one pocket is designated just for wasting money in case another pocket gets emptied and you have quite the Whack-A-Mole™ situation.

any attempted containment of NSA, CIA, FBI or any other “black box” organization is pretty much doomed to failure. appoint an actual “outside the organizations” watchdog and they will be ineffective because they don’t know how that type of organization works. appoint an ex-insider because they know enough to be effective and they probably won’t want to upset their former bosses and underlings or expose their own complicity in similar activities.

the only meaningful gesture at this point would be a huge middle finger to all of them and only if followed by tearing down and rebuilding all of these organizations from the ground up. … willi0000000

Amen to the eminently sensible and entirely rational analysis of that particular and peculiar empty gesture, which fools no one with even just a titter of wit, willi0000000. And how very informative that politicians think it a smart move which is going to do anything positive.
Stupid is as stupid does, and Intelligence runs rings around puppets and muppets wherever they be nesting and resting and hiding and cowering in plain sight and pushing buttons and pulling leverage on reliably dumb media. Things are though more than just a tad different nowadays, as I’d be quite amazed to discover more and more are not quickly becoming very aware of and sublimely engaged with.
Smarter is as smarter does.
And there is a certain idiotic madness and definite certifiable arrogance in the thinking that equates power is invested in the adjusting of budgets and is in any way going to control orders of fundamental change.

So would being able to sustain Life on Earth be a better investment, d’you think? … WageSlave

Jump in at the Deep Darker Web End, WageSlave, and realise and virtualise Martian Life on Earth as a Prime Beta Investment. It will certainly be able to launder Eastern [Chinese and Japanese and Russian and Thai and Indian Tiger type] paper dollars into programs of value of leading influence with returns which deliver real wealth and prosperity rather than accumulating crippling debt and displaying unedifying intellectual paralysis. There’s no point in holding on to, rather than lavishly spend that Monopoly confetti whilst it is still able to generate a perception of worth.
