KM/MANLY (1951-53) - CIA countering the actions of pacifist and neutralist groups in West Germany
by Michael Best 17 Jan '16

17 Jan '16

KMMANLY (1951-53) was originally designed to counter the actions of pacifist and neutralist groups in West Germany who were opposed to ratification of the contractual agreements. In practice KMMANLY sought to win support for the European Defense Community (EDC) in areas of veterans' affairs and military publishing. To achieve these aims, three publications were utilized under KMMANLY -- Die Deutsche Soldaten Zeitung (The German Soldiers' Newspaper, (DSZ)), Europaische Wehrkorrespondenz (European Defense Newsletter, (EWK)), Wehr Wissenschaftliche Rundschau (Military Science Journal, (WWR)). In addition KMMANLY supported the Gesellschaft fuer Wehrkunde (GfW), a military science study group composed of former high ranking German Army officers. Wilhelm Classen (PA), Eberhard Von Nostitz, Burghard Von Preussen, Felix Steiner associated with GfW part of Project. Josef Berschneider, Hans Iglhaut, Werner Strecker considered for possible use on KMMANLY. https://archive.org/details/KMMANLY Enjoy. --Mike That1Archive.neocities.org

Of course it's not "people", widely, globally... as they either gave up or never had that frame of reference to consider being "afraid of" today, some of whom now live in systems / places that have since become worse. Poking in such manner at Americans that do have that frame... doesn't look smart. Of course they're not going to give them up... because it's really hard to surveill those trying to take stuff away from them, and they certainly can't drive dead cars into the thieves either. Limited options... limited solutions. Are you going to give up your crypto? No? Oh, I see, so now you're afraid of that. Because you know you can use it to keep stuff away from the thieves. Americans are as dumb as the rest, but not always as dumb as you think.

That's not the question - the question is, does each individual human of a nation have the right to protect their current, existing culture? Or at least to have a say, i.e. a vote about it? Some nations, through their power structures, go to extraordinary lengths to protect their rights to cultural and racial strength, Japan for example. Is this the right of the Japanese? Or are they doing the wrong thing? >From their perspective, they are doing what is required to protect their rights, to self determination as a people, a tribe, a race. It appears that the rights of individuals are determined (in practice) by those in power, and not by those who are directly affected by the decision makers (the people themselves). Is keeping such decisions in the hands of a few "educated elected" an elitist approach? If democracy be the will of the people manifested, then ought the people of any nation be asked directly (nation wide vote) on such questions as cultural dilution due to immigration and or asylum? Or is it appropriate for an "elected" few to impose their personal preference on a nation? Regards Zenaan

Drug Lords and the Quiet Man Who Became the CIA's Master Killer
by Michael Best 16 Jan '16

16 Jan '16

Excerpts from the Kindle edition, description from Amazon.com. In “How to Get Away with Murder in America,” Evan Wright reveals the story of Enrique “Ricky” Prado, an alleged killer for a major Miami drug trafficker who was recruited into the CIA. Despite a grand jury subpoena and a mountain of evidence unearthed by a federal task force, Prado was promoted into the agency’s highest echelons and charged with implementing some of the country’s most sensitive post-9/11 counterterrorist operations, including the agency’s secret “targeted assassination unit.” All while staying in close touch with his cocaine-trafficking boss and, evidence suggests, taking part in additional killings for him. After Prado retired in 2004 at the rank of SIS-2—the CIA equivalent of a two-star general—he moved to a senior position at Blackwater, the private military contractor, where he continued to run the same, now-outsourced “death squad.” Contrary to government assurances that it was never actually activated, Wright reveals testimony from one of the Blackwater assassins that Prado’s unit was indeed carrying out assigned killings. As a former military intelligence officer told Wright in 2011, “Private contractors are whacking people like crazy over in Afghanistan for the CIA.” - Unfortunately, while this book contains many tantalizing seeds it doesn't provide context for many events. Further muddying the book's account is the fact that it follows the investigation chronologically, and not the events being investigated. Additional research is needed to build on what this book began. Excerpts posted to: http://that1archive.neocities.org/excerpts/CIA-Master-Killer.html Enjoy! --Mike That1Archive.neocities.org
