Gladio, as it is defined nowadays, forms part of what I have always referred to as "parallel structures". That is an invisible army that is not poised for battle against a hypothetical invader, but rather one meant to be used internally against what the military have always called 'The Fifth Column' of the USSR. The Communist Party and the Extreme Left.

From Satan To Christ
Secrets of witchcraft and satanism revealed in a story of salvation
By Sean Manchester
Pub. Holy Grail (1988)
Extract pp. 20-23
The London Evening News, 3rd July 1974, published a photograph of two dolls with pins stuck through the head and body: "These are the voodoo dolls a witchcraft high priest used to put 'the mark of death' on two detectives," ran the story. "David Farrant, who was found guilty at the Old Bailey this afternoon of trying to influence the detectives' evidence, sent the dolls so they would be afraid to testify against a man arrested on an indecency charge. The prosecution had alleged that following the arrest of a man called John Russell Pope on New Year's Eve, Farrant sent the dolls to the detectives."
In the previous month Farrant was found guilty of other charges: "King of black magic guilty," proclaimed the front page headline of the Sun, 26th June 1974: "A man who called himself a high priest of witchcraft was convicted last night of breaking into tombs. In his summing-up, judge Michael Argyle talked of frightened witnesses. He said they feared the accused man, 28 year-old David Farrant, and his talk of black magic. Farrant, of Archway Road, Highgate, was found guilty at the Old Bailey of maliciously damaging a memorial to the dead and unlawfully entering a place of burial and interfering with bodies Wearing a long black cape, he sat impassively in the dock as the verdicts were announced. During the twelve-day case the jury heard of strange witchcraft ceremonies, attempts to communicate with the dead, and sexual fertility and initiation rites. They were shown a folder of photographs ...... some described as 'horrific' ..... The judge named John Pope, a former follower of Farrant, as one of the scared people. 'He became very frightened of Farrant,' said the judge. 'He feared he might have some kind of power over him' ."
With Farrant behind bars, Pope organised his own diabolical order and affiliated with the Church of Satan's United Kingdom representative Ron Adams. Under the banner United Temples of Satan Pope was soon filling the gap in the sensational press left by his publicity-hungry friend. Frightened or not, he set out to usurp Farrant almost immediately following his release from prison. "When the incarcerated necromancer was released on parole recenty, John Pope greeted him with a challenge to a 'black magic duel' in Highgate Wood. 'Black magic has no time for failures. I was just eliminating the competition'," he boasted in a full page feature in the Hendon Times, 2nd June 1977, in which he adopted the title "Son of the Beast" - vaunting the re-establishment of a Satanic order based on Crowley's teachings.
A Daily Mirror journalist, Margaret Hall, was present in the phalanx of assembled photographers and reporters. Her newspaper the following day reported: "On the one side of the park was the 'high priest', David Farrant. On the other was the 'black magician', John Pope. They cast evil spells. They called down terrifying curses. They mumbled and they gabbled as they celebrated Hallowe'en by trying to eliminate each other ..... They clashed to decide who should be boss of the occult." Neither managed to do anything beyond taunting before police and park-keepers put an end to their asinine behaviour.
Their power struggle was soon resolved, however, as Pope explained in an exclusive interview in October 1987: "I did at a later date join Mr. Farrant's organisation and he did give me a number of talismans and rituals which I found very powerful, one of which I used against Crawford which enabled me to defeat him. I would not have been able to without it. Crawford was a very powerful ritual magician," Pope claimed. When asked what he meant by "defeating Crawford", he admitted to employing a curse to harm the person, adding: "He lost his job. He lost his wife. He lost his home and became very ill. He eventually went to live in France." David Crawford was a rival of Pope who ran the Bedford branch of the Brotherhood of the Ram. Pope rejoined Farrant's "organisation" in 1981 when the "talismans" and "rituals" would have been provided.
In his obscure curriculum vitae Pope devotes seven pages to a summary of his life as a magician. A Satanic federation is described wherein the various members are alleged to have treated him as royalty. The Black Shadow, run by a certain David Marriott in Luton, Bedfordshire, is one of the groups referred to in this unholy alliance and of his visits Pope disclosed: "I was wined and dined and I could have sex with any of the women in his temple. Which in fact I did, making love to a number of women. There were drugs too."
In the same piece of audacious egocentricity Pope claims that his own members sent him money which resulted in him becoming quite "well off'. He ends by announcing his retirement from the occult scene, claiming to have asserted himself as the greatest magician since Aleister Crowley.
At times during his Satanic career John Pope corresponded with the neo-Nazi British Movement and League of St. George. Initially this was to extract information about Hitler's occult interests, but little help was forthcoming in that particular direction. Although at odds with some of their racial theories, he found much of their material "quite good" and supported the Fuehrer's invasion of Russia. Hitler understood the Communist threat and was absolutely right to attack, Pope proclaimed with a certain amount of glee, adding that if Britain had joined the Nazis there would be no Russian Communism today.
Attempts by myself to establish a tangible link between Satanism and Nazism fell on stony ground in the wake of a Sunday People report in October 1977 which would abort my investigations.
I had begun a series of articles for the Borehamwood Post in the previous month and my first published report exposed a cell of neo-Nazis linked to Column 88 and the League of St. George. However, I was yet to reveal a connection with the occult. This I intended in my next article which, due to the powerful Sunday People, would never materialise. Their journalist, Frank Thorne, produced an article claiming that the neo-Nazi cell uncovered by myself was non-existent and that the photographs used were not genuine. Two pictures published by the Sunday People were of John Pope: one in a Satanic robe, the other in a black outfit complete with swastika. Pope was quoted in a manner detrimental to my report and protestations over the following weeks that he had been misquoted and had words put in his mouth by reporters from the Sunday People, did little for my case. The damage had already been done.
The newspaper chose to ignore evidence that over the years Pope had tried to recruit youngsters for a "survivalist" group whose avowed intention was to "protect" Britain from the "foreign invader" and "Communist threat". His fascism was bogus they claimed.
The attack upon my integrity made a credible pursuit of the Nazi-Satanist connection impossible and such evidence I had soon went cold. Some months later, however, an organisation identified in my original report was named throughout the media as being behind a series of racially motivated fire-bombings. This total vindication of my investigation did not prompt me to waste valuable time and energy in a protracted legal action with the Sunday People as it has been my policy over the years not to sue any publication for libel - otherwise much of my time would be taken up doing little else;
Notwithstanding my reluctance to waste valuable resources on scandal-mongers, I nevertheless made it my business to investigate thoroughly the journalist responsible. His source was none other than David Farrant!
The Sunday People originally invited Farrant to their offices in New Fetter Lane and here he collaborated with Frank Thorne. Farrant provided Pope's address and their combined corroboration was all the newspaper needed to publish its lies. Thus the entire Sunday People story was gleaned from two of my most vociferous adversaries. Such is the morality of the gutter press that I have long since refused to be interviewed by them.
Ten years later - in the shadow of his occult retirement - Pope finally renounced Satanism, black magic and witchcraft. He changed his name by deed poll and married a Roman Catholic at St. Joseph's Church, Highgate, in November 1987. By a strange coincidence this was the church at which Farrant was married almost exactly twenty years earlier.
Apart from a brief flirtation with extremist politics two years after his release from prison, when he threatened to stand as a candidate in the marginal Homsey constituency under a "Wiccans Awake" banner, not much more was heard of Farrant. He teamed up with arch-Satanist Jean-Paul Bourre at the beginning of 1980 and in the following years tried to stage further animal sacrifices in Paris, but the public outcry thwarted all such attempts. Bourre was obliged to regurgitate strictly pre-incarceration events about Farrant in his dreary publications devoted to malefic occultism. Before meeting his British counterpart, Bourre had made a number of nefarious nocturnal forays to the famous Pere-Lachaise cemetery which resulted in him being banned from entry by the Mayor of Paris.
I met Jean-Paul Bourre briefly at the end of 1979, as recounted in my earlier work on this subject, when he came to London to do research on a book to be published in France the following spring. Entitled Messes Rouges et Romantisme Noire, this apologia for black magic sang the praises of David Farrant whom Bourre had met several times in the interim. Inside the book a photograph appeared of a written "curse" bearing my initials. It had apparently been directed at Nathalie Sarazin who was living with Bourre in Paris at the time. _________________ www.lawyerscommitteefor9-11inquiry.org www.rethink911.org www.patriotsquestion911.com www.actorsandartistsfor911truth.org www.mediafor911truth.org www.pilotsfor911truth.org www.mp911truth.org www.ae911truth.org www.rl911truth.org www.stj911.org www.v911t.org www.thisweek.org.uk www.abolishwar.org.uk www.elementary.org.uk www.radio4all.net/index.php/contributor/2149 http://utangente.free.fr/2003/media2003.pdf
"The maintenance of secrets acts like a psychic poison which alienates the possessor from the community" Carl Jung
https://37.220.108.147/members/www.bilderberg.org/phpBB2/
After November 4, 2011, the German public has experienced a kind of shock wave. The cause wasn’t yet another twist of the “euro crisis”, but the realization that there was something in Germany that wasn’t supposed to exist. Something for which neither the public nor the government were prepared: A neo-nazi terrorist cell that had committed 10 murders, carried out at least a dozen bank robberies, and was probably responsible for several bomb and arson attacks.
On that November the 4th, an armed bank robbery occurred in Eisenach (Thuringia). A short time later, the two alleged perpetrators were found dead in a camper van – they had committed suicide. On the same day, a fire broke out in a house in Zwickau (Saxonia). In this house, the two bank robbers, Uwe Böhnhardt (34) and Uwe Mundlos (38), had lived. The fire was set by Beate Zschäpe (36), who lived there as well. She surrendered to the police on Nov. 8.
In the camper and the Zwickau apartment, several weapons were found, including a Ceska pistol, with which eight Turks and one Greek – all of them small shopkeepers – had been murdered. The serial murders had occurred across Germany between 2001 and 2009. Also, a Tokarev pistol was found, with which the german policewoman Michele Kiesewetter had been shot dead in 2007. In the rubble of the Zwickau apartment, police found a video on a computer hard drive. The video was a kind of cynical “cartoon film” in which a “National-Socialist Underground” (NSU) group boasted the 10 murders.
The public was not only shocked by existence of a neo-nazi terrorist group. Equally shocking was fact that the security agencies had been in the dark with respect to this terrorist cell. Since November the 4th, not a day has gone by without new disturbing revelations in the media. Some of the media reports are factual, others are conjectures and speculation. Whatever, the question marks on this case are not on the decline, but multiply.
What Went Wrong with the Security Agencies?
It quickly became apparent that Böhnhardt, Mundlos and Zschäpe were not unknown to the security agencies and the police. The trio had been quite active in the neo-nazi scene, which is being monitored by the domestic intelligence services and police. Starting in the mid-1990s, they participated in neo-nazi demonstrations and events. When, in January 1997, neo-nazi hate mail, mock letter bombs and mock explosive devices turned up in Thuringia, the trio was detained in the course of police investigations, but soon thereafter they were released. That’s normal under the rule of law when there is insufficient evidence. In a September 1997 police search in the neo-nazi milieu, real explosives were found and there was evidence pointing to the trio. When an arrest warrant was issued in January 1998, the three had disappeared, leaving behind explosives and neo-nazi propaganda material.
For the next 13 years, the neo-nazi trio remained untraceable for the domestic intelligence services and police – until November 4, 2011. And that’s the really disturbing issue. Obviously, something had gone terribly wrong with the security authorities.
Besides lots of perfectly comprehensible criticism and critical questions on the conduct of the security agencies in the media and the political sphere, conspiracy theories have popped up in the internet: The NSU terrorist cell would have been “deliberately ignored” by the security agencies, the latter might have “aided” or even “controlled” the neo-nazi group. These allegations against the security agencies are patently absurd. But the disturbing question remains: Why were the security agencies incapable to recognize the formation of a terrorist neo-nazi group? Why were they unable to attribute a series of nine murders to a neo-nazi context?
If you talk to knowledgeable people who are familiar with the modus operandi of the domestic intelligence services and the police in dealing with extremism and terrorism, you get three explanations for what has gone so terribly wrong:
Right-wing/neo-nazi violence against foreigners, minorities and leftists is an undisputed fact. But these rather widespread acts of violence had been “limited” to (often severe) bodily injury. Such assaults typically occur in a highly affective mode of behavior, often under the influence of alcohol. Cases of carefully planned political murders – committed in cold blood – had been unknown in the neo-nazi scene.
For the security agencies, the generally accepted assumption was that terrorism is really the exclusive domain of islamist and left-wing extremists. Security officials were fixated on Islamist and leftist terrorism. In nine of the murders committed by NSU terror cell, the same weapon was used, but because the murders did not fit the patterns of Islamist or leftist terrorism, the investigations focused on an organized crime background. It seems, the possibility of neo-nazi terrorism was not taken into consideration. That the serial murders could be acts of neo-nazi terrorism seemed “unimaginable”.
In addition, there are the typical bureaucratic frictions and blockages in information exchange and cooperation between the various intelligence services and police authorities. There was no “situation room” bundling and cross-checking the data of various agencies dealing with right-wing extremism.
These three explanations for the systemic failure of the security agencies with respect to neo-nazi terrorism are sound and plausible. However, do they provide a sufficient explanation?
The head of the German domestic intelligence service (BfV), Heinz Fromm, said on Nov. 27: “We have not really understood these [NSU] perpetrators… We could image them committing arson or even bomb attacks, but not committing cold-blooded executions. We should have known better”.
The question that remains unanswered is: What could explain the NSU cell’s “quantum leap” from “normal” right-wing extremist violence towards neo-nazi terrorism in an armed underground mode?
Two Characteristics of Neo-Nazi Terror Group
As the case of the NSU terror cell shows, there are two distinctive features in the phenomenology of neo-nazi terrorism. They might give a clue for answering this question:
The conspiratorial, apparently “professional” conduct of the NSU-terror cell. To remain undetected for 13 years in an “underground” mode of operation, is no small feat – even if we consider the systemic failures of the security agencies. When you go “underground”, you still need apartments, bank accounts, ID cards, vehicle registrations, credit cards (or their counterfeits). A series of arrests since Nov. 4, confirms that the NSU terror cell operated within an covert network of supporters. This clandestine network provided false identities, logistical support and possibly warnings against actions by intelligence and law enforcement agencies. These supporters of the NSU terror cell came from the neo-nazi milieu. In spite of the fact that this milieu is being monitored by the security agencies, including undercover agents, the neo-nazi support network for the NSU terror group remained intact for 13 years.
A new kind of “political communication” of the neo-nazi terrorists. The NSU terror cell did not publish any “claim of responsibility” in the way that islamist or leftist terrorists ideologically “justify” their actions. Instead of lengthy and convoluted ideological “communiques”, the neo-nazi terrorists used a cynical “cartoon” technique. In their video, the NSU terror cell represents itself as the cartoon character “Pink Panther”, who is featured together with photographs of the murdered victims and the crime scenes. This stunningly cynical “political communication” necessitates appropriate sociological and psychological analysis. However, the underlying principle of this type of “political communication” is explicitly featured in the video: “Pink Panther” holds up a poster on which is written: “Not words but deeds.”
The Oktoberfest Bombing
Both the conspiratorial mode of behavior of the neo-nazi terror group and its “propaganda by deeds” approach point to earlier manifestations of right-wing terrorism, particularly by neo-fascist groups in Italy. But there is also a German precedent of right-wing terrorism: The bombing of the Munich Oktoberfest in 1980, in which 13 people were killed and 211 wounded.
Among the dead was Gundolf Köhler, who was officially declared the “lone assassin”. However, Köhler had connections to various neo-nazi groups. He had participated in paramilitary trainings of the neo-nazi “WSG Hoffmann” group. Another link was to the right-wing extremist Heinz Lembke. When Lembke was arrested – a year after the Munich bombing – he led the police to a total of 33 secret weapons caches in northern Germany, where automatic weapons, large quantities of ammunition, 250 hand grenades, 150 kg of TNT and bazookas were hidden. Shortly thereafter, Lembke committed suicide in prison. The two chief suspects being dead, the case was closed in 1982.
Now, 31 years after Munich Oktoberfest bombing and 29 years after Köhler was officially declared “lone assassin”, the Bavarian State Parliament and the Munich City Council have – both by unanimous vote – demanded that the judicial investigation into Oktoberfest bombing shall be reopened. And, that the evidence of its neo-nazi background, accumulated over the years by journalistic investigators, historians and lawyers of victims of the bombing, be reviewed.
Cold War Neo-Nazis & the „New Generation“ Neo-Nazis
The Swiss historian Daniele Ganser – a serious scientist, not a promoter of conspiracy theories – has suggested a possible connection of the Munich bombing and the “Gladio” network. What was Gladio? Under the direction of American and British intelligence services, a clandestine network of “sleeper” operatives and arms stashes was set up in all West European NATO countries. The purpose of Gladio was the conduct of guerrilla warfare if the Soviets had conquered and occupied Western Europe. In 1991, Italian prime minister Giulio Andreotti had revealed the existence of Gladio.
However, the Gladio structure as such, is the wrong focus. As Ganser points out, the Gladio organization included a significant number of militant right-wing extremists. In the Cold War context, that’s not surprising: right-wing extremists were the most committed anti-communists.
The penetration of Gladio by militant right-wing extremists has been clearly established through prosecutorial investigations and parliamentary commissions of inquiry in Italy. These official investigations also show that right-extremist groups were responsible for several bloody terrorist attacks between 1969 and 1980. The most severe neo-fascist terror attack was the bombing of the Bologna train station – with 85 persons killed – on August 2, 1980. The bombing of the Munich Oktoberfest occurred on September 26, 1980.
In 1991, the German government declared that the Gladio network in Germany had been entirely dissolved. This statement is credible. However, what has happened with the rank and file operatives after Gladio’s dissolution? To put the question more precisely: what did the right-extremist Gladio elements do after they were “decommissioned”? Did these right-wing extremists let their operational skills in underground warfare and their neo-nazi ideological convictions simply fade away?
Or, might there have been a kind of “transfer” between between old right-extremists of the Cold War era and the new generation of neo-nazis which began to flourish in the 1990s – particularly in Eastern Germany? The NSU terror cell is an outgrowth of this right-wing extremist milieu. Whether there existed a link between old right-extremists of the Cold War era and the NSU terrorists, is a hypothesis. But such an hypothesis seems plausible enough to deserve an unbiased review by the 400 plus police investigators and intelligence experts who are currently working on the case of the neo-nazi NSU terror cell.
Richard Cottrell's Gladio is a tour de force. Explosive, topical, and up to the minute, it takes the reader into realms of research usually reserved to those who spend years digging deep into history. Cottrell presents a wealth of insight and factual knowledge that is unmatched. Gladio is a must have for anyone who values the truth.

Masquerading as a rear guard against a possible Communist takeover, NATO's covert special forces are in reality a hideous cancer poisoning European democracy. The dirty war projects have included the Italian Strategy of Tension, the Red Brigades and Baader Meinhof/Red Army Faction, the Banco Ambrosiano scandal, the deaths of Italian ex-PM Aldo Moro, banker Roberto Calvi, media magnate Robert Maxwell, Swedish PM Olaf Palme, and "The Umbrella Murder," as well as the attempt on Pope John Paul II's life; the sex snare set for British PM Harold Wilson, and the Cyprus genocide. Gladio architect Lyman Lemnitzer is implicated in the 1944 reintroduction of the Mafia into Sicily and the murder of the Kennedy brothers. Covert NATO operations were behind Solidarnosc, the fall of the Soviet Union, the color revolutions of Eastern Europe and North Africa, and the massacres of August 2011 in Norway and Libya; the infiltration of Occupy Wall Street by violent provocateurs is on the same pattern. _________________ www.lawyerscommitteefor9-11inquiry.org www.rethink911.org www.patriotsquestion911.com www.actorsandartistsfor911truth.org www.mediafor911truth.org www.pilotsfor911truth.org www.mp911truth.org www.ae911truth.org www.rl911truth.org www.stj911.org www.v911t.org www.thisweek.org.uk www.abolishwar.org.uk www.elementary.org.uk www.radio4all.net/index.php/contributor/2149 http://utangente.free.fr/2003/media2003.pdf

German spy chief Heinz Fromm quits over neo-Nazi investigation scandal
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/german-spy-chief-heinz- fromm-quits-over-neonazi-investigation-scandal-7904493.html
Government agents destroyed files on far-right terrorist cell behind murderous attacks on immigrants
Tony Paterson Berlin - Tuesday 03 July 2012
The head of German intelligence was forced to resign yesterday amid explosive revelations that his agents deliberately destroyed and manipulated files containing information about a neo-Nazi terror cell behind the country's worst far-right violence since the Second World War.
Heinz Fromm, 63, said he took responsibility for the actions of staff who shredded seven intelligence documents, left out key information from computer files and lied to their superiors at the height of an inquiry into neo-Nazi terrorists last November.
Mr Fromm, who resigned after 12 years at the helm of the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution, said the actions of the agents involved were unprecedented. "Nothing like this has ever occurred before during my tenure," he said. "It is a major breach of trust and hugely damaging to the reputation of the service."
One of the most serious post-war German intelligence scandals began to unfold last week. Reports about the shredded documents were leaked to the media and provoked outrage from MPs who called for an immediate investigation.
Politicians said the shredded files left the agency open to "every possible suspicion", including the notion that neo-Nazis were on its payroll or that agents themselves had neo-Nazi sympathies. The agency has made no secret of its use of paid "moles" to infiltrate the neo-Nazi scene.
The destroyed documents contained background information on members of the National Socialist Underground (NSU).Over a decade, the neo-Nazi terrorist cell murdered a female police officer, shot dead nine immigrants, injured more than 20 people in two bomb attacks and robbed 14 banks to finance its operations.
Police discovered the bodies of the gang's two ringleaders, Uwe Mundlos and Uwe Böhnhardt, in a burnt-out caravan in eastern Germany in November last year. Investigators established that they had committed suicide after robbing a bank. A third member of the gang, a woman called Beate Zschäpe, was caught and arrested and is still being questioned.
The gang would shoot immigrant Turkish and Greek street vendors at point-blank range and without warning with a Czech-made Ceska pistol. A nail bomb detonated by the group in a crowded Turkish district of Cologne in 2004 injured 22 people.
For more than a decade, police ruled out the possibility of neo-Nazi involvement and attributed the killings instead to immigrant "gang warfare". German police even set up two of their own Turkish doner kebab stalls to catch the presumed immigrant gang leaders. It only dawned on police that a far-right terrorist cell was behind the attacks after they followed up leads from the bank robbery last year and found the Ceska murder weapon.
It emerged at the weekend that the agent who shredded the seven files was a high-ranking officer who worked for a department specialising in surveillance of the extreme right at intelligence headquarters in Cologne. He is said to have destroyed the documents on 11 November last year – the same day that federal prosecutors took over the investigation of the case.
The officer is reported to have lied to superiors and claimed that the documents had been destroyed 10 months earlier. The Cologne agents were also said to have deliberately left out important surveillance information from computer files and claimed this was for "operative reasons".
Meanwhile, further information published yesterday revealed that Italy's intelligence services had supplied their German counterparts with information about a neo-Nazi terrorist network eight years before police discovered the bodies of the NSU ringleaders last November. The Italians first tipped off German intelligence about a meeting of European neo-Nazis in the Belgian town of Waasmunster in 2003, where Italian neo-Nazis had referred to a terrorist network. Italian intelligence also reported that militant German neo-Nazis met frequently with their Italian counterparts, who often supplied them with money.
In 2008, an Italian neo-Nazi skinhead group from South Tyrol was reported to have held a meeting with militant German neo-Nazis, where attacks on foreigners were planned to "make an example".
Several politicians yesterday applauded Mr Fromm's resignation saying it was "necessary and right". However, Hartfrid Wolff, a liberal Free Democrat MP, echoed the view of many in saying: "His resignation comes just after the disclosures about the destroyed documents and it suggests that there is more to this affair than is so far known."
Mr Fromm is scheduled to give evidence before a parliamentary committee investigating the scandal on Thursday.

I had the pleasure of interviewing the enormously eloquent brainbox that is former SW England Tory MEP Richard Cottrell about his new Gladio book the other day. First part is last 15 minutes of the hour.
Richard Cottrell on his new book 'Gladio, NATO's Dagger at the Heart of Europe, The Pentagon-Nazi-Mafia Terror Axis'. Journalism is dead as the mainstream press parrot the government line without criticism.

From Richard's book:
GLADIO - NATO’S Dagger at the Heart of Europe: The Pentagon-Nazi-Mafia Terror Axis
In July 2011, a calm and studious risk-assessment analyst working for the South Yorkshire Police was summarily fired. He had filed a report with his superiors which openly contradicted the official narrative compiled by the British authorities to explain the 7/7 London Transport bombings. Tony Farrell’s allotted task was to assess the degree of risk posed by terrorism. Starting with a clean sheet, he worked to the electrifying conclusion that the London attacks were - in all probability - staged by the secret state. Furthermore, he dismissed the danger posed by Islamic extremists as virtually non-existent. Despite rigorous carpeting by his bosses, pleas, arm-twisting and threats, Farrell refused to budge. He was convinced the story of suicide bombers responsible for London’s day of infamy was a concoction of ‘monstrous lies.’ The sole purpose of the carnage on 7th July 2005 was to terrify the population to such an extent that the United Kingdom could be moved closer to a state of regimented tyranny.
As this book will explain, we have been here before. In the 1970s and ‘80s, the spectre of officially orchestrated terror stalked the European landscape. Gladio was the name of the Italian branch of the secret Guerrilla armies that NATO established to ‘stay behind’ in the event of a Russian invasion. Every NATO state, and some that were not, had such a secretive force. As the prospect of an attack from the East receded, so did fear of the Soviets. To preserve the myth of the Red Peril, these secret, or ‘sleeping,’ soldiers were released in a wave of synthetic violence against innocent European citizens. It lasted two decades, the years remembered by Italians as the anni di piombo - the years of lead.
The modern-day manufactured ‘war on terror’ comes from the same stable of synthetic violence. With the communist bogey exhausted, we are told of an insidious new peril in our midst: the fearful prospect of minarets and Sharia law marching across the European landscape, destroying Christian civilization. But for fear to work in a tangible form, as was discovered in the years of lead, we must have the visible impact of terror all around us. That is where we are now.

elaborate suspicions about the strategists of right-wing terrorism and to allude to the news imagery that depicted its effects because these lent themselves to translation into the developing conventions and top of the form (Pergolari, 2007: 160).
This is con-
firmed by the fact that the inaugural film of the cycle of cop films already contains a representation of right-wing vigilantism and of a subversive plan for an authoritarian takeover of the state.
La polizia ringrazia
(The Law Enforcers, dir. Stefano Vanzina, 1972) was immediately imitated because of its box-office success, and contains the features that would be embellished and recombined in the more than one hundred films of
the cycle (Curti, 2006: 7, 97). These include the irascible protagonist, a police captain restrained by a media and magistrature overly concerned with procedure and civil rights (he became meaner and more muscular in subsequent films); shady high-level figures to the political right (based in state institutions or multinational business) who have the protagonist eliminated because of his respect for the spirit if not the letter of the law; a female love interest who is either a non-entity or (as here) a tacit threat to the potency of the hero, in this case (as elsewhere) a journalist; explicit violence and other conventionalized action sequences, especially shootouts and car chases which invariably feature the
death of an innocent caught under the wheels or in the crossfire; didactic dialogue that explicates the stages of the plan for the takeover of the state and the ideology behind that plan; and so on, including the transitive verb in the title left ominously suspended sans object (the title literally means ‘the police thank’).
The ‘collateral’ death of the passer-by or kidnap victim, a staple in the cycle of films, stands for the sense of insecurity of the Italian urban dweller, and the violent policeman is a compensatory surrogate who assuages or avenges that insecurity (while ultimately
confirming it with his death). However, there is a sense in which the exaggerated violence projected onto the streets of Italy has a celebratory aspect. ‘Rome as Chicago’ is how the great historian of Italian cinema Gian Piero Brunetta (2007: 413–14) entitles a
short piece on these cop films. In the films themselves this comparison is intended to flatter.

Here are three newspaper articles, all in German, which at a quick glance (I can read German) seem to me to be the most solid yet evidence that Operation Gladio did indeed involve multiple bomb attacks explicitly authorised by top European politicians, under pressure from the CIA and operationally organised by the German BND and the NATO say-behind groups.
This is dynamite: up to now there has been a bit of wriggle room for NATO with few court cases showing a clear chain of command from politicians at the top to bombers on the ground.
I hope someone can find the time to translate this information.
and here is a very good Alex Jones follow-up to it, an interview with Richard Cottrell, author of 'Gladio: NATO's Dagger at the Heart of Europe'.
He clearly links Lyman Lemnitzer ('Northwoods') to Gladio, and also to the JFK assassination (and I believe he was instrumental in the plans for the Israeli attack on the 'USS Liberty'):

Ex-minister suspected behind Alex church bombing

http://www.alarabiya.net/articles/2011/02/07/136723.htm
By CAIRO (Farrag Ismail)
Egypt's general prosecutor on Monday opened probe on former Interior Minister Habib el-Adly's reported role in the New Year's Eve bombing of al-Qiddissin Church in Alexandria in which 24 people were killed, an Egyptian lawyer told Al Arabiya.
Laywer Ramzi Mamdouh said he had presented a proclamation to Egyptian prosecutor Abd al-Majid Mahmud to investigate news media reports suggesting that the former interior ministry had masterminded the deadly church attack with the intent to blame it on Islamists, escalate government crackdown on them, and gain increased western support for the regime.
Mahmud said the information contained in some reports were "serious."
The proclamation, numbered 1450, pointed to the news reports sourcing a UK diplomat who explained the reasons why Britain has insisted on the immediate departure of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and his regime, especially his interior ministry's security apparatus previously directed by el-Adly.
According the UK diplomatic sources quoted in the reports, the former interior minister had built up in over six years a special security system that was managed by 22 officers and that employed a number of former radical Islamists, drug dealers and some security firms to carry out acts of sabotage around the country in case the regime was under threat to collapse.
The proclamation also pointed, sourcing reports on UK intelligence services, that interior ministry officer Maj. Fathi Abdelwahid began in Dec. 11, 2011 preparing Ahmed Mohamed Khaled, who had spent 11 years in Egyptian prisons, to contact an extremist group named Jundullah and coordinate with it the attack on the Alexandria church.
"Discipline the Copts"
Khaled reportedly told the group he could assist with providing weapons he had allegedly obtained from Gaza and that the act was meant to "discipline the Copts."
After contact was made, a Jundullah leader named Mohammed Abdelhadi agreed to cooperate in the plot and recruited a man named Abdelrahman Ahmed Ali to drive a car wired with explosives, park it in front of the church and then leave it to be detonated by remote control, according to the report.
But Maj. Abdelwahid, who worked for the interior ministry, reportedly detonated the car before the Jundullah recruit got out, therefore killing him and 24 worshipers in the church.
After the attack, the interior ministry officer asked Khaled to go meet the Jundullah leader in an Alexandria apartment and evaluate the success of the attack.
A few days later the two men met in an apartment in Alexandrian's Abdel-Moneim Riad street. During their meeting Maj. Abdelwahid and his security forces raided the apartment and arrested them. They were then driven immediately on ambulance to an interior ministry building in Cairo.
They stayed in detention until Jan. 28 when the ministry of interior and its security system broke down allowing them to escape as did thousands of prisoners around the country.
When they fled, both the men went straight to the UK embassy in Cairo and told the story of how they were set up by the government to carry out terrorist attacks, according to the reports.l _________________ www.lawyerscommitteefor9-11inquiry.org www.rethink911.org www.patriotsquestion911.com www.actorsandartistsfor911truth.org www.mediafor911truth.org www.pilotsfor911truth.org www.mp911truth.org www.ae911truth.org www.rl911truth.org www.stj911.org www.v911t.org www.thisweek.org.uk www.abolishwar.org.uk www.elementary.org.uk www.radio4all.net/index.php/contributor/2149 http://utangente.free.fr/2003/media2003.pdf

"SS Oberstgruppenfuhrer Paul Hausser (seen here as an Obergruppenfuhrer while commanding the Das Reich division in Russia winter 1941) was unquestionably the ablest military commander in the Waffen SS. After the war he sought to re-establish the reputation of the SS and claimed that the foreign units of the SS were really the precursors of the NATO army."

by Theo Fruendt - 24th May 2007
There is a reason for the fact that there are no precise documentations about personalities like Paul Hausser who initiated the military training of the Waffen SS in 1934: In 1959 Hausser became the founder of a organisation called HIAG (Hilfsgemeinschaft auf Gegenseitigkeit der Angehoerigen der ehemaligen Waffen SS = the auxiliary community on mutuality of the members of the former weapons SS) . He was at this time already 79 years.
This organisation of former members of Waffen SS maintained contacts to all relevant political parties in Germany. Thus for example the Federal Chancellor of Germany, at that time Adenauer, visited condemned war criminals in the prison of Verler and have had a conversation with the former Waffen SS general Kurt Meyer. Meyer, known as „Panzermeyer “, was selected in the year 1959 to become the HIAG spokes person.
As a member of the German parliament, the Social Democrat, SPD, Helmut Schmidt reported to HIAG Hamburg in the year 1954 with that to the topic „Soldatentum and social-democracy “with the intention „difficulties from the way to vacate “, which with „the HIAG Fürsorgearbeit still on the part of the SPD meet weapon SS veterans “.Helmut Schmidt became chancellor from 1974 till 1982 and was a strong advocate of re armouring debate for stationing of nuclear short-range missiles.
Paul Hausser died in September 1972 in the age of 92 years he was active in the HAIG society to his late 80’s and due to his lobbying for the HAIG-society it resulted in remarkable political success, so for example the equalization of pension for former members of Waffen SS with all former members of the regular German Armed Forces. This indicated that the Waffen SS was not illegal anymore. In this consent the society succeeded to accomplish public meetings with up to 20.000 participants in public.

The CIA and the British secret service MI6, in collaboration with the military alliance NATO and European military secret services set up a network of clandestine anticommunist armies in Western Europe after World War II. The secret soldiers were trained on remote islands in the Mediterranean and in unorthodox warfare centers in England and in the United States by the Green Berets and SAS Special Forces.
The network was armed with explosives, machine guns and high-tech communication equipment hidden in underground bunkers and secret arms caches in forests and mountain meadows. In some countries the secret army linked up with right-wing terrorist who in a secret war engaged in political manipulation, harrassement of left wing parties, massacres, coup 'Etats and torture.
Codenamed "Gladio" ('the sword'), the Italian secret army was exposed in 1990 by Italian Prime Minister Giulio Andreotti to the Italian Senate, whereupon the press spoke of "The best kept, and most damaging, political-military secret since World War II" (Observer, 18. November 1990) and observed that "The story seems straight from the pages of a political thriller." (The Times, November 19, 1990).
Ever since, so-called 'stay-behind' armies of NATO have also been discovered in France, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxemburg, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Switzerland, Austria, Greece and Turkey.
They were internationally coordinated by the Pentagon and NATO and had their last known meeting in the NATO-linked Allied Clandestine Committee (ACC) in Brussels in October 1990. _________________ www.lawyerscommitteefor9-11inquiry.org www.rethink911.org www.patriotsquestion911.com www.actorsandartistsfor911truth.org www.mediafor911truth.org www.pilotsfor911truth.org www.mp911truth.org www.ae911truth.org www.rl911truth.org www.stj911.org www.v911t.org www.thisweek.org.uk www.abolishwar.org.uk www.elementary.org.uk www.radio4all.net/index.php/contributor/2149 http://utangente.free.fr/2003/media2003.pdf

FEAR AS A WEAPON
THE EFFECTS OF PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE ON
DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL POLITICS
Since antiquity, strategists have advised the use of propaganda and
other psychological techniques to spread fear among the enemy in order
to bring about his defeat. However, the methods to create and
manipulate fear also involve terrorism (sometimes state-sponsored)
and may target domestic populations in order to make them receptive
or hostile to certain political or economic policies.
http://911blogger.com/news/2010-07-12/new-documentary-about-operation- gladio-and-false-flag-terrorism
US intelligence services instigated and abetted rightwing terrorism in Italy during the 1970s, a former Italian secret service general has claimed.
The allegation was made by General Gianadelio Maletti, a former head of military counter-intelligence, at the trial last week of rightwing extremists accused of killing 16 people in the bombing of a Milan bank in 1969 - the first time such a charge has been made in a court of law by a senior Italian intelligence figure.
Gen Maletti, comannder of the counter-intelligence section of the military intelligence service from 1971 to 1975, said his men had discovered that a rightwing terrorist cell in the Venice region had been supplied with military explosives from Germany.
Those explosives may have been obtained with the help of members of the US intelligence community, an indication that the Americans had gone beyond the infiltration and monitoring of extremist groups to instigating acts of violence, he said.
"The CIA [Central Intelligence Agency], following the directives of its government, wanted to create an Italian nationalism capable of halting what it saw as a slide to the left and, for this purpose, it may have made use of rightwing terrorism," Gen Maletti told the Milan court. "I believe this is what happened in other countries as well."
The general has been living in South Africa for the last 21 years as a fugitive from Italian justice. He has been sentenced to 14 years imprisonment for leaking a secret service document to the press and last year received a 15-year sentence for obstructing justice. He was granted a special 15-day immunity from arrest to enable him to give evidence at the trial for the bombing of a bank in Milan's Piazza Fontana, the atrocity that inaugurated the "strategy of tension", a series of bombings intended to shift the country's political centre of gravity to the right.
"The impression was that the Americans would do anything to stop Italy from sliding to the left," Gen Maletti said during an interview at his Milan hotel.
"Don't forget that [former US president Richard] Nixon was in charge and Nixon was a strange man, a very intelligent politician but a man of rather unorthodox initiatives."
The CIA supported SID, the Italian defence intelligence service, financially, but Gen Maletti's US counterparts were rarely willing to share information. There may have been good reason for the American caginess. In a posthumous memoir published last year, the wartime resistance hero Count Edgardo Sogno described how he visited the CIA station chief in Rome in July 1974 to inform him of his plans for an anti-communist coup.
"I told him that I was informing him as an ally in the struggle for the freedom of the west and asked him what the attitude of the American government would be," Mr Sogno wrote. "He answered what I already knew: the United States would have supported any initiative tending to keep the communists out of government."
Despite contacts with his CIA counterparts, no word of the Sogno plot was uttered. "I, for one, didn't know about the Sogno thing. I knew Mr Sogno was being investigated by a Turin magistrate but I didn't know he had such important contacts with US agencies in the United States and Italy," Gen Maletti said. "Clearly, Sogno had great confidence in the complicity of the American service."
The lucid 79-year-old general, whose English is almost perfect, has spent his retirement in South Africa painting and writing his memoirs, which are due to be published soon. He admits to feeling nostalgic for his homeland.
But the judges who convicted him in absentia last year were far from convinced of his gentlemanly qualities. In their written verdict they said he had obstructed an investigation into a 1973 attack on the interior minister by withholding crucial information from the magistrates.
Four members of the public were killed and 45 injured when an anarchist, Gianfranco Bertoli, hurled a grenade into a crowd outside police headquarters in Milan. Bertoli, according to the judges, was really a man of right-wing sympathies and a long-standing SID informant, codenamed Negro. Gen Maletti's men were warned in advance of the attack on the minister, Mariano Rumor, but took no action to prevent it and failed to pass on their information on Bertoli even after the killings.
Gen Maletti's role at the heart of the complex intrigues makes him an illuminating witness. Italy must clarify the mysteries of that time if it is to recover its national dignity and sovereignty, he said.
Arsenal of ‘IRA’ firearms including AK-47 and M16 assault rifles found by two teenagers ‘magnet fishing’ on Somerset Levels
http://www.westernmorningnews.co.uk/Arsenal-8216-IRA-8217-firearms-821 1-including-AK/story-26075910-detail/story.html
DavidWells | Posted: February 24, 2015
An arsenal of machine guns, assault rifles and other deadly firearms that some suspect is a former IRA weapons cache has been found by two teenagers who were ‘fishing’ with a magnet on the Somerset Levels.
The cache of about 40 rusty and mud-caked military-grade guns date back to the Second World War and included a Browning .50 machine gun, capable of bringing down a helicopter, an M16 semi-automatic machine gun and a Soviet Russia-designed AK-47 assault rifle.
James Cork, 16, was ‘magnet fishing’ off a bridge with a friend on the Somerset Levels when they began to lift the weapons from the river.
The haul of weapons, 20 of which they managed to put together, appear to also include an MG 42, SA23 9mm and a Smith & Wesson revolver.
James had been fishing with a friend in Greylake on the Somerset Levels, which is surrounded on both sides by nature reserves and has a sluice gate just opposite, which may have caught the weapons.
However, some of the guns identified appear to be more modern than that and writing in The Sun newspaper, SAS veteran and author Andy McNab suggested the weapons might have been part of an IRA cache.
He threw most of the guns back into the water, but he took one of the guns thought to be a 1930s Smith & Wesson .38 - home as a trophy.

Austria has had an uncomfortable reminder of its days on the front line of the Cold War with the revelation that US arms secretly hidden more than 40 years ago to counter a possible Soviet takeover could still be buried in depots throughout the country.
Government officials confessed yesterday that they were baffled by news of the 79 arsenals, disclosed by the US ambassador to Austria, Swanee Hunt, over the weekend. Chancellor Franz Vranitzky has demanded precise details of the locations of the arsenals, which reportedly each contained enough guns, pistols and explosives for some 150 anti-Communist rebels, and even substantial amounts of gold.
Mr Vranitzky also plans to ask the three other powers that occupied Austria for 10 years after the war - France, Britain and Russia (as the successor to the Soviet Union) - whether they, too, stashed arms in case of a possible conflict.
An official at the British embassy in Vienna said yesterday that he had "no information whatsoever" about any possible British arms caches and that the embassy had not been approached by the Austrian government on the matter. Ms Hunt, however, told Austrian media: "It was probable that Britain had taken similar steps [to the US] at the time in its zones in Europe."
According to Ms Hunt, the existence of the secret US arms arsenals had only come to light recently after the CIA decided to inform Congress about them. She said she was sorry Austria "was informed so late about the matter", describing it as a "relic from the Cold War".
The arms depots, centred on Salzburg, the heart of the US occupation zone in Austria, are believed to have been set up in the late 1940s and early 1950s, when Cold War tensions were at their highest.
The Austria Press Agency reported that they were intended to be used by US-backed resistance fighters, similar to the Gladio fighters in Italy.
For 10 years after the war, Austria was split into four occupation zones.

Not Op GLADIO gear. Recent armouries for Op Gladio were discovered in Europe. They contained some WW2 SOE gear (the WelRod Pistol, for example). Maybe the Czech sub machine gun. But that would marry in with Op Gladio armaments training. However, Op Gladio agents, where proficient in Eastern Bloc weaponry of the day. This is born out, by a secret store held a former RAF Cheddington which became an RAOC sub depot. If you do not accept this one, go to the greasy spoon on the industrial estate (they serve a Sunday roast to kill for!). They have posted a photocopy of a newspaper cutting confirming this base was used by the CIA for Op Gladio weapons storage. Some of the original reinforced & armoured buildings are still standing, as you drive towards the end of the road on the site. But I suspect a private collector got spooked after new reports about armed gangs using such guns for their ends.

Weapons Cache Discovered This Week In Somerset UK.
Arsenal of ‘IRA’ firearms including AK-47 and M16 assault rifles found by two teenagers ‘magnet fishing’ on Somerset Levels

An arsenal of machine guns, assault rifles and other deadly firearms that some suspect is a former IRA weapons cache has been found by two teenagers who were ‘fishing’ with a magnet on the Somerset Levels.
The cache of about 40 rusty and mud-caked military-grade guns date back to the Second World War and included a Browning .50 machine gun, capable of bringing down a helicopter, an M16 semi-automatic machine gun and a Soviet Russia-designed AK-47 assault rifle.
James Cork, 16, was ‘magnet fishing’ off a bridge with a friend on the Somerset Levels when they began to lift the weapons from the river.
The haul of weapons, 20 of which they managed to put together, appear to also include an MG 42, SA23 9mm and a Smith & Wesson revolver.
James had been fishing with a friend in Greylake on the Somerset Levels, which is surrounded on both sides by nature reserves and has a sluice gate just opposite, which may have caught the weapons.
However, some of the guns identified appear to be more modern than that and writing in The Sun newspaper, SAS veteran and author Andy McNab suggested the weapons might have been part of an IRA cache.
He threw most of the guns back into the water, but he took one of the guns thought to be a 1930s Smith & Wesson .38 - home as a trophy.
However, when his mother Katherine discovered he had the weapon, she called 999 and armed police arrived minutes later.
Most of the guns they found were in pieces, but in relatively good condition and could be easily put back together.
A spokesman from Avon and Somerset Police said: “We received a call on Tuesday, February 17 from a woman who said her son and a friend had been magnet fishing last weekend and discovered what appeared to be firearms from the Greylake at the Kingweston Sluice, near Street in Somerset.

Cold War Part Deux: This Time It's Jihad
To understand what is happening on the geopolitical global scene today, you have to understand what has been happening on that same scene for the last 100 years, because it hasn't really changed much.
The US Empire has been the world's only (and 'greatest') superpower since at least the end of the Second World War. Once the Empire had achieved that position, it was determined to keep it. Russia was supposed to have been destroyed as a result of the 1939-45 war, but Russian ingenuity and hardiness, and Stalin's surprising independent streak, forced the Empire to accept a division of the world between 'East' and 'West'. As soon as the lines were drawn, however, the Empire sent its agents out to continue and complete the process of global conquest.
Apart from the few overt US military forays (Korea, Vietnam, the odd turkey shoot in Latin America) the Empire relied primarily on covert operations to expand its control. In Western Europe - a prized piece on the 'grand chessboard' - the US Empire established 'stay-behind' networks made up of paramilitary groups from various backgrounds and espousing right-wing, fascistic ideologies. The rationale for 'mining' Europe with weapons caches and nutjobs trained in sabotage and bloody mayhem was that, in the event of a Soviet invasion and occupation of Europe, 'resistance fighters' would form the West's front-line in the coming war with the Soviets.
Image
Not an empire though
These groups were created and funded as part of the Truman Doctrine, which pledged to "support free peoples who are resisting attempted subjugation by armed minorities or by outside pressures". A Soviet invasion was never on the cards, of course, and thus this 'support' took the form of CIA funding, training and arming of minority groups that used extreme violence to 'correct' any European political or social drifts towards 'the left', or anything that opposed the Empire's interests. In their spare time, many of these groups involved themselves in arms- and drug-smuggling and other racketeering, much of it also under the control of the CIA and other Western intel agencies.
This aspect of the Truman Doctrine was the beginning, in earnest, of the US National Security State's covert foreign policy, which has comprised the bulk of all US foreign policy over the past 70 years. Most of the details of that foreign policy has not only been kept from the American people, but from most American politicians also. In December 1947, United States National Security Council (NSC) Directive 4-A "secretly authorised the CIA to conduct these officially non-existent programs and to administer them" in such a way that "removed the U.S. Congress and public from any debate over whether to undertake psychological warfare abroad."
A 'communist plot to take over the world' could no longer be held up as the ideological battering ram with which to keep Europe and Russia apart (and justify US imperial expansion all over the planet), so a new 'anti-ideology' was needed. Up to that point, Western intel agencies had coached paramilitary groups to don 'leftist colors' and conduct subversive activities - bombings, assassinations, disrupting elections - in order to sway public opinion in favor of anti-Communist (specifically, anti-Russian), nationalist, law-and-order, Washington-aligned parties and governments.
Going forward, they would extend and develop the successful 1980s mujahideen project in Afghanistan to recruit, train, arm and fund paramilitaries in 'jihadi garb', then guide them towards committing (or being associated with) terrorist atrocities carried out under the black flag of 'Global Jihadism', rather than the red flag of Russian Communism. Where the first version was limited in scope because 'communism' was associated with an increasingly smaller number of countries, Gladio 2.0 blew the field wide open because Islam is present in, and could be spread to, a far larger geographic area; a geographic area that included Russia and former Soviet Republics in the heart of the 'World Island'.
Turkey: A wholly-owned subsidiary of the CIA since 1945
The seamless transition from Gladio to Gladio 2.0 is best illustrated by NATO member Turkey, which has the edge over other NATO members in this new Western intelligence 'game' because it has a large Muslim population and is strategically situated to contain Russian access to, and influence in, the Mediterranean and the Middle East. The Turkish branch of covert CIA Gladio operations began on September 27th 1952, when the Tactical Mobilization Group (STK) (special operations department of the Turkish military) was created with the consent of Brigadier-General Daniş Karabelen of Turkey's National Defense Supreme Council. Karabelen was one of sixteen soldiers (including Alparslan Türkeş) who had been sent to the United States in 1948 for training in special warfare (assassinations, bombings etc.) During their training several were directly recruited into the CIA.
In 1965 these same men formed the core of Turkey's Special Warfare Department, which replaced the STK. During the 1970s, the Special Warfare Department was run by General Kemal Yamak. In his memoirs, Yamak stated that the United States had set aside around $1m for weapons for the group. This CIA organisation within Turkey was effectively a parallel government or 'deep state', and it was only when Yamak asked then Prime Minister Bülent Ecevit for more cash for his operations that Ecevit actually became aware of the operation's existence. Not wanting to expose to his fellow ministers that Turkey had no real sovereignty to speak of, Ecevit suggested that the organization seek support from Europe. So Yamak contacted generals from the United Kingdom and France, from whom he received a positive response.
In 1992 this Special Warfare Department was renamed the "Special Forces Command", although it remains largely controlled by the CIA to this day.
Concurrently with this complete subversion of Turkey's military hierarchy, the CIA also began funding Turkey's civilian intelligence agency - the 'National Intelligence Organization' - in which it maintained a cadre of moles, as acknowledged in 1977 by its former deputy director - and CIA recruit - Sabahattin Savasman.

A map of 'Turkic peoples', a diverse collection of ethnicities spanning central Eurasia, is very useful for predicting the focus of US foreign policy
Having infiltrated the Turkish civilian and military intelligence establishments, the CIA then sought to co-opt Turkish political and civilian life also. In the 1960s, under US direction, one of the above-mentioned 16 soldiers, Alparslan Turkes, established the 'civilian' Associations for Struggling with Communism, and funded the far-right National Movement Party (MHP). The National Movement Party espoused a fanatical pan-Turkic ideology that called for reclaiming large sections of the Soviet Union under the flag of a reborn Turkish empire. This ideology was, of course, perfectly matched with the US 'cold war' ideology aimed at attacking the Soviet Union, and the CIA clearly were interested in promoting it, although their job was relatively easy given that Turkes and his cohorts had also been enthusiastic supporters of Hitler during World War II, who had also attempted to undermine Soviet unity under the flag of Pan-Turkism.
The paramilitary wing of the MHP (today the third largest political party in Turkey) is called the 'Grey Wolves'. In the 1960s, Turkes established over 100 camps across Turkey where members received ideological and paramilitary training from CIA agents, including one former Nazi SS member. This system was analogous to the hundreds of 'madrassas' established with CIA money for the training of jihadi extremists in Afghanistan and elsewhere. Often masquerading as 'cultural' or 'sports' organizations, the Grey Wolves in Turkey carried out shootings and bombings against left-wing and liberal activists, journalists, judges, Kurds and anyone else who was deemed a threat to US control over Turkey. Over 6,000 people were killed.

The flag of 'East Turkestan' (Xinjiang, Western China)
Working with the CIA-controlled National Intelligence Organization, the Grey Wolves were also involved in several coup d'etats in Turkey and at least one foreign attempted coup in Azerbaijan in 1995. It was immediately after this 1995 coup that Azerbaijan was 'opened up' to Western capital and, in the words of investigative journalist Greg Palast, became the 'Republic of BP' (British Petroleum). The Grey Wolves also fought against Russian soldiers as proxy forces for NATO in both Chechen wars, and 15,000 'Grey Wolves' fought on the side of Azerbaijan in the Nagorno-Karabakh War (1988 - 94) against Armenia (another US proxy war designed to provoke Russia).
With their fanatical 'pan-Turkic' ideology, the Grey Wolves have, more recently, been put to good CIA use in the farthest reaches of their 'Turkish empire'. In recent years, the Eastern Turkestan Grey Wolf Party has sprung up in China's western province of Xinjiang, supposedly in support of the Turkic-speaking Uyghur ethnic minority, some of whom have apparently been encouraged to embrace 'jihad'. On March 1st, 2014, eight of these Uyghurs hacked 33 people to death at a train station in the southern Chinese city of Kunming. The perpetrators were found with a hand-painted East Turkestan flag and said that they had wanted to go abroad to engage in 'jihad', but with no papers to leave China they decided to go on a domestic killing spree instead.

In July this year the Thai government stopped over 100 Uyghurs on their way to wage glorious 'CIA-had' in Syria (via Turkey), and sent them back to China. The US State Department was very annoyed - so annoyed, in fact, that in August a bomb exploded at a shrine in Bangkok, killing 20 people, mostly ethnic Chinese holiday-makers. The key suspect fled to Turkey. An accomplice to the bomber was arrested and found to be carrying 11 Turkish passports. The bombing is now suspected to have been carried out by the Grey Wolves in retaliation for Thailand's previous deportation of Uyghur terrorist suspects back to China instead of allowing them to travel to Turkey, and then Syria.
On the feel-good, peace-loving humanitarian front, the US government has gone 'all in' to create and financially support (via the NED) the World Uyghur Congress (in 2004), a political (rather than military) tool designed specifically to put pressure on the Chinese government.
But the Kunming and Bangkok attacks are likely to be just a small taste of what is to come. This is why Russia is attempting to strangle the creature in its cradle in Syria. And this is why Russia conducted the largest military exercises seen since the Cold War - 100,000 soldiers across 6,000km of southern Russia - held in September just days before Putin started bombing the hell out of terrorists in Syria, and simulating "an international threat coming from central Asia."
There is substantial evidence of a major US/NATO operation to traffic Chinese Uyghur fighters from Xinjiang to Turkey, and then Syria, and back again to bring 'jihad' to western China. According to Al Mayadeen, a Beirut-based satellite news service, abandoned villages in northern Syria have recently been filling up with the families of Muslim Chinese Uyghurs. These Uyghurs, claims the report, are entering the country, along with their wives and children, to fight alongside Al Nusra Front (formerly known as Al Qaeda) and ISIS/Daesh against the Syrian government. In addition to providing a cadre of battle-trained fighters to ship back to China, the influx of 'Turkic' Uyghurs into northern Syria is very likely an attempt by the Turkish government to populate the area with 'Turks' in advance of potential 'peace talks' on the likely future break-up of Syria.
With that little bit of background, let's take a look at an image of the individual who appeared on camera in the immediate aftermath of the shoot-down of the Russian Su-24, the same man who claimed that he and his friends had shot at and killed the Russian pilot, and were also responsible for the attack on the Russian rescue helicopter with a US-supplied TOW anti-tank missile that killed another Russian marine:
Image
Alparslan Celik (center with blue beret) - 'Grey Wolf'
His name is Alparslan Celik; he's standing in front of the flag of 'East Turkestan' and is giving the signature 'Grey Wolves' hand salute. He's not Syrian, he's not even a Syrian Turkman; he's just Turkish, the son of a former MHP mayor of an eastern Turkish town.
ImageWith that said, here are a few (perhaps rhetorical) questions:
Was it just a coincidence that members of this long-term, NATO-sponsored, pan-Turkic paramilitary group, with direct connections to recent Turkish-linked terrorist atrocities in China and Thailand, were in the right place at the right time to kill the Russian pilot after he ejected?
Was it just a coincidence that, within a couple of hours, Fox News and CNN reporters were there on the scene to interview this Turkish 'Grey Wolf' and broadcast him gloating about the murder of the Russian pilot, in doing so pushing Turkish/Russian relations past the point of no return?
Is it just a coincidence that this is the second time in the last 18 months that a non-EU country on Russia's border has seen its relationship with Russia destroyed over the shoot-down of a plane (MH17, previously) and promises of entry into the EU?
Can it really be seen as a coincidence that, just a few days before the Turkish PM was scheduled to go to Brussels to talk about getting a €3billion hand out for dealing with Syrian refugees and fast-tracking the long-sought-after Turkish entry into the 'elite' EU club, someone shoots down a Russian bomber from Turkey, forcing the Turkish government to 'own' it and thereby destroying their relationship with Russia?
I suppose not. Everyone has to pick a side, it seems, and some people need a little encouragement. _________________ --
