Covid quarantines - crimes against humanity > Milei


🚨BREAKING: JAVIER MILEI DROPS A TRUTH BOMB AT THE UN! 🚨 President of Argentina Javier Milei just exposed it all on the world stage: “The global quarantines of 2020 should be considered a crime against humanity.”“This very institution allowed bloody dictatorships like Cuba and Venezuela to join the Human Rights Council without the slightest reproach.” 🔥 Milei just called out the UN to its face. 🔥 He accused them of violating the very freedoms they were created to protect. 🔥 And millions of us agree — they used fear to destroy liberty. This is no longer about health. It’s about history, justice, and holding the globalists to account.

JFK - Files

ANNALS OF THE DEEP STATE 

Everyone who reads a few newspapers has learned that the U.S. National Archives are belatedly — but legitimately — following through on a Donald Trump campaign promise left half-executed in his first term as president: namely, the full declassification of old intelligence-agency and executive-branch records relating to the 1963 assassination of John F. Kennedy. At last, researchers are being given access to full uncensored records from the ’60s and ’70s, ones covered by the 1992 Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act, that were being held back or smeared with concealing black-ink bars for national security reasons. 

 

The material is so copious that it will take months for journalists, academics and historians to search for nuggets of conspiracy gold — and then decades for everyone to integrate the new material into the public record of U.S. intelligence activities. Nobody has yet spotted anything that is likely to change the mainstream narrative of Kennedy’s slaying. (Maybe I should put “yet” in bold face?) 

 

But for historians of the Central Intelligence Agency and American foreign policy, and for those interested in particular events like the Bay of Pigs disaster, the document release will certainly serve to fill important gaps in the record. The thumbprint of the CIA on the Cold War and the Western Hemisphere will be clarified, with dates and names intact, and we will better understand just how far the agency spiralled out of control in the 1950s and 1960s. 

 


If you’re interested in all this, you will want to keep a close eye on the National Security Archive, an American non-governmental non-profit watchdog that is the go-to source for declassified U.S. records of all kinds. Their initial briefing book on the JFK records describes the context and offers a few key documents that were previously only half-legible. The most extraordinary of these is a memo sent to Kennedy in June 1961 by Arthur Schlesinger Jr., today best remembered as a devoted “court historian” of Kennedy’s “Camelot.” 

 

Schlesinger had served in the Office of Strategic Services, the predecessor of the CIA, and had retained close ties to the agency as it flourished in the postwar years. He was thus able to advise Kennedy frankly, in the wake of the Bay of Pigs, of how the CIA had escaped State Department control and became what he explicitly called “a state within a state” executing its own Cold War agenda. The traditional foreign service started out suspicious of and hostile to the CIA, Schlesinger writes; “some ambassadors frankly preferred not to know what the CIA was up to in their countries.” 

 

This practically led to a reverse takeover of American diplomacy by enterprising spymasters who, in turn, were often at the mercy of scheming and ambitious foreign villains: the tail, as they say, quickly came to wag the dog. (President Dwight D. Eisenhower inadvertently made the problem worse in 1953 by making John Foster Dulles his Secretary of State — and his younger brother Allen the Director of Central Intelligence.) Schlesinger emphasizes that the CIA had big recruiting advantages over the State Department, and over a period of years simply got the better, more ambitious people. The result was the creation of, essentially, a parallel State Department with its own private military and diplomatic apparatus. 

 

CIA dirty tricks in the Western Hemisphere, in particular, are still a millstone on the reputation of the United States 64 years after Schlesinger’s letter. Schlesinger discusses presciently, and artfully, how using conspiratorial and violent methods against the Communist threat was likely to pan out for America in the long run. American spies gained a lot of power over the liberal civilians who were supposed to manage foreign policy, the historian argues, through pure vibes and intimidation. 

 

“The advocate of clandestine activities seems ‘tough’ and realistic; the opponent has to invoke such intangibles and the reputation of the U.S., world public opinion, ‘What do we say in the United Nations?’, etc., and seems hopelessly idealistic, legalistic, and ‘soft.’” His analysis still offers incredible insights to the democracies of the 21st century; the memo ought to be considered a Magna Carta for the relationship between an open society and its covert state apparatus. (Let me add that no professional reporter who works an intelligence/espionage beat should fail to read it — now that it’s fully available.)

JFK files: CIA contaminated sugar destined for USSR

The American spy agency’s operation aimed to ruin the taste of food for consumers and inflict financial losses on the Soviet Union
JFK files: CIA contaminated sugar destined for USSR











American spies contaminated 800 bags of sugar sent on a cargo ship from Cuba to the USSR in the 1960s, the newly released files on the assassination of John F. Kennedy have revealed.

One of the files analyzed by journalist and blogger Ben Norton and the Washington Post documents “clandestine operation” by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) just months before the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962.

In August of that year, the CIA learned about a cargo vessel transporting 80,000 200-pound (90 kilograms) bags of brown sugar to the USSR, according to a declassified paper sent to General Edward Lansdale, who was the Pentagon’s deputy assistant secretary for special operations at that time and had a long history of working with the CIA.

The American spies then decided to launch a special operation to contaminate the shipment. They learned that the ship in question would briefly dock at Puerto Rico for minor hull repairs and would have to offload a part of its cargo.

“Through a clandestine operation, which was not detected and is not traceable, we were able to contaminate 800 of these bags of sugar,” the paper reported. According to the CIA, the contaminated bags would then spoil the entire shipment, making it “unfit for human or animal consumption in any form.”

The plan, however, was not to poison the Soviet people but merely to sour their taste for life.

“The contaminate we used will give the sugar an ineradicable sickly bitter taste, which no process will remove,” the spies said, maintaining that it was “not in any sense dangerous to health.” Those behind the operation still believed that it would “ruin the taste of the consumer for any food or drink for a considerable time.”

If successful, the operation was expected to inflict financial losses upon the Soviet Union amounting to between $350,000 and $400,000 at that time, according to the document. The fate of the shipment remains unclear as RT could not find any relevant Soviet data related to the case.

In 1960, the US imposed its first serious embargo against Cuba, halting all sugar purchases from the country among other measures. The move came in response to the Cuban Revolution, which put an end to the rule of the US-backed dictator, Fulgencio Batista.

Washington also made its NATO allies abandon Cuban sugar imports as well. The USSR then stepped in, becoming one of Cuba’s major sugar importers.
