“Your Worst Enemy Could Be Your Best Friend & Your Best Friend Your
Worst Enemy” ― Bob Marley
Who are America’s allies and who are America’s friends? Are the Deep State’s “friends” the American
people’s friends? Are the Deep State’s
“foes” the American people’s foes? Who
is who? For the American people it’s
hard to tell. Take America’s so called
friend Saudi Arabia, the country that supported and trained the 911 hijackers
that killed thousands of innocent Americans and caused trillions of damage in
wars, we’re told Saudi Arabia is our friend but are they? What price did the Saudis pay for the 911
attacks? Zero. Why?
Was it because the Saudis were acting in tandem with America’s CIA to
launch an attack on America to justify endless wars for profit?
Saudi Arabia is a primitive country that beheads people for
minor or no infractions. How can a
country whose actions are so antithetical to American values be our
friend? Is it a friendship of convenience
or are we so indebted to the Saudi’s for their oil and keeping the military
industrial complex engorged in profits that we can turn a blind eye to their
horrific human rights violations. What
value does this friendship offer the American people?
Now that a CIA operative and sometime Washington Post
journalist has been tortured and murdered allegedly by the Saudis, America may
or may not punish Saudi Arabia. Killing
Americans, no punishment; killing a CIA operative, punishment. From Kristen Breitweiser:
Excerpt:
Road to Damascus Conversion:
Derived from the Biblical story of Paul, the term “Damascus road conversion” is
commonly used to refer to an abrupt about-face on a serious issue of religion,
politics or philosophy. In this type of change, a single, dramatic event causes a person to become aligned with
something he or she previously was against or support a position that he or
she previously opposed.
As a 9/11 widow who has spent the
last 17 years fighting for accountability with regard to the 9/11 attacks that
killed my husband and 3,000 others, I find the recent uproar over Jamal
Khashoggi’s disappearance and alleged murder interesting and out of character for many of those decrying
his disappearance and demanding an investigation and accountability…
As victims of terrorism, we are
ever vigilant and watchful about all those named on our lists. We follow these
folks actions, their speeches, their legislation, because we know that they are never looking out for our best interests
as U.S. victims of terrorism. As a group, our institutional memory is broad
and long. And we never forget.
That’s why we all happened to
notice the uncharacteristic behavior of so many of those on our lists
with the advent of Jamal Khasoggi’s disappearance. And it made us wonder why so many people, who had previously always
blindly supported the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, were now so vociferously jumping
Saudi ship.
What had caused this Road to
Damascus conversion?
Take for example those who fought
against the release of The 28 Pages of the Joint Inquiry of Congress (JICI)
that detailed the Saudi role in the 9/11 attacks for fear that The 28 Pages
public release might harm the Saudi’s reputation and its very special
relationship with the United States. A
relationship, in large part, based on oil, weapons, money, and shared
intelligence operations—things that have little to do with keeping American
citizens safe.
Regarding The 28 Pages, CIA Director, John Brennan once said,
“releasing a classified section of the congressional investigation into the
Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States would be a mistake…
Yet, now when faced with the comparatively less significant disappearance
and murder of only one man, Khashoggi
(not the thousands on 9/11, the hundreds from Khobar and the Embassy bombings
or the 17 U.S. sailors from the Cole), based
on far less substantiated and convincing evidence from newspapers (rather
than a several hundred page bi-partisan, bi-cameral Congressional
Investigation’s Final Report), John Brennan is suddenly moved to hold the
Saudis accountable.
On Khashoggi’s disappearance, Brennan had this to say: “It appears
increasingly likely that Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi was detained and killed
at Saudi Arabia’s consulate in Istanbul. There is still much that we don’t
know, but if such an audacious act was carried out, it almost certainly would have required the approval of Crown Prince
Mohammed bin Salman…
I am confident that U.S. intelligence agencies have the capability to
determine, with a high degree of certainty, what happened to Khashoggi. If
he is found to be dead at the hands of the Saudi government, his demise cannot
go unanswered — by the Trump administration, by Congress or by the world
community...
The message would be clear: The United States will never turn a blind
eye to such inhuman behavior, even when carried out by friends, because
this is a nation that remains faithful to its values.”
Really, Mr. Brennan? Never turn a
blind eye? You turned two blind eyes to
the Saudis for nearly 20 years as you defended them and kept the truth of their
misdeeds shrouded in secrecy from the 9/11 families, the Embassy Bombing
families, the Khobar Tower families, and the USS Cole families. Cover up is
complicity and you have been complicit for 20 years! And now you are worried
about inhumane behavior? Now, you are interested in the United States taking
immediate action and imposing sanctions?
For the record, Mr Brennan—>3,000 innocent souls were brutally murdered
in cold-blood on 9/11. Their massacre yielded literally tens of thousands of body parts that were
recovered and returned to the victim’s family or unceremoniously incinerated at
Ground Zero and/or hastily dumped in a garbage land-fill in Staten Island.
That, John Brennan, is the definition of
inhumanity.
Oh what a difference the torture and death of a CIA asset
makes compared to the torture and death of over 3,000 innocent Americans on
American soil makes. The Saudi’s are
continuously given kid glove treatment for their horrific actions. But that is because Saudi Arabia is our Ally,
our friend. From Margaret Kimberly at
Black Agenda Report:
Freedom Rider: Jamal Khashoggi and U.S. Hypocrisy
The corporate media cry crocodile
tears over the apparent murder of an
elite, CIA-connected “dissident,” while papering over US complicity in Saudi
war crimes in Yemen.
“The Saudis may kill 50 Yemeni
children on a school bus and get only a few mild rebukes, but killing a
prominent man is another story entirely.”
The disappearance and presumed
murder of Jamal Khashoggi puts the corrupt relationship between Saudi Arabia
and the United States in high relief. The two countries have been partners in
crime over many years. Together they
used jihadist proxies to make wars in Afghanistan, Libya and Syria that
furthered U.S. interests. The
brutal Saudi attack on neighboring Yemen could not happen without U.S.
diplomatic and logistical support...
Khashoggi was a member of a
prominent Saudi family with strong ties to the royal house. His uncle, Adnan Khashoggi, was an arms
dealer involved in the Iran-Contra and BCCI scandals. But Jamal
Khashoggi had a parting of the ways with crown prince Mohammed Bin Salman, the
de facto ruler, and he left Saudi Arabia in 2017. He was a long time Saudi
spokesman, CIA asset and a Washington Postjournalist. All of
those credentials made him an elite insider in the United States too…
The Saudis may kill 50 Yemeni children on a school bus and get only a
few mild rebukes. But killing a prominent man who has all the right
political and intelligence agency connections is another story entirely.
Ordinarily
compliant American senators are now going through the motions of asking
questions and proposing sanctions or other punishments against the kingdom.
Corporate media like the New York Times, Financial Times, CNN and CNBC have
dropped out of the Future Investment Initiative meeting which is known as Davos
in the desert. The plight of starving
Yemenis gets little attention, but a hit job committed openly and without fear
of recourse is too much. Liberal sensibilities were offended by the
crassness of the act and by the position of the victim.
The outrage is coming long after
the Saudis began their war crime against Yemen. They have been bombing and starving that country since 2014 and are
responsible for an estimated 50,000 deaths. THEY HAVE BLOCKADED PORTS
AND DENIED ACCESS TO FOOD AND MEDICINE. Yemen is in the midst of a cholera
outbreak and millions are displaced refugees.
These atrocities were not enough to
put Saudi Arabia on the list of infamy where it belongs. Barack Obama, darling of the liberal imperialists, was only slightly
less subservient to the kingdom than Trump is today. The Yemen attack began
during his term in office. He continued the tradition of $100 billion defense
deals with the feudal monarchy and made the relationship a top priority.
He cut short a 2015 visit to India
in order to meet the newly crowned King Salman and brought along a who’s who
entourage including Condi Rice, James Baker, John McCain and Nancy Pelosi. SAUDI ARABIA WAS AND IS A KEY
PARTNER IN U.S. IMPERIALISM.
Trump differs from Obama and other presidents only in his inability to be diplomatic. When first asked about
a possible response to Khashoggi’s disappearance HE MADE IT CLEAR THAT HE WOULD DO NOTHING TO THREATEN WAR CONTRACTOR
PROFITS. In defending the crown prince he mentioned Boeing, Raytheon and Lockheed by name as he dismissed
any talk of sanctions.
Of course Trump style politics provides
further complications. Presidential son-in-law Jared Kushner has formed a close
friendship with Mohammed bin Salman. Kushner’s security clearance gave him
access to information which he gave to the crown prince. Kushner is the likely source who turned in Saudi royals, also connected
to the CIA, who opposed the de facto ruler…
The hypocrisy doesn’t end with
Trump and Kushner. It can be seen in the corporate media who cover for a war
crime against Yemen… But they also know
who funds the think tanks and who has the connections with their bosses.
They may despise Trump but it isn’t for the reasons they ought to dislike him…
Ahhh yes, friend or foe.
Is this strong friend of the Deep State a friend of the America
people? Does this friend of the Deep State
commit these acts against Yemen on behalf of the American people’s
interests? Is this really a friend to
America? President Trump was elected to
put an end to senseless wars of aggression.
President Trump vowed to put America and American interests first, but
now he has allowed the worst of the worst swamp monsters to slime their way
into his administration and continue to vulgar anti-American foreign policy of
Bush and Obama. From Russia Insider:
Excerpt:
Trump Admin Is Being Taken Over by Pompeo and Bolton Who Represent
Everything Trump Ran Against
Mattis is losing influence and may
be on the way out
·
Mattis is a conventional establishment thinker
but in the context of the Trump admin he is often a moderating force
In covering President Donald
Trump’s recent pregnant comments about Defense Secretary Jim Mattis, The Wall
Street Journal tucked away in its story an observation that hints at the
president’s foreign policy direction. In
an interview for CBS’s 60 Minutes, the president described Mattis as “sort of a Democrat if you want to know the
truth” and suggested he wouldn’t be surprised if his military chief left
his post soon. After calling him “a good guy” and saying the two “get along
very well,” Trump added, “He may leave.
I mean, at some point, everybody leaves…. That’s Washington…”
But far more significant than
Mattis’s future or Trump’s love of chaos was a sentence embedded in the
Journal‘s report. After
noting that recent polls indicated that Mattis enjoys strong support from
the American people, reporter Nancy A. Youssef writes: “But his
influence within the administration has waned in recent months, particularly following the arrival of John Bolton as
national security adviser and former CIA Director Mike Pompeo as secretary of
state.”
The significance here is that Bolton and Pompeo represent just about
everything Trump ran against during his 2016 presidential campaign. He ran
against the country’s foreign policy establishment and its rush to war in Iraq;
its support of NATO’s provocative eastward expansion; its abiding hostility
toward Russia; its destabilization of the Middle East through ill-conceived and
ill-fated activities in Iraq, Libya, and Syria; its ongoing and seemingly
endless war in Afghanistan; and its enthusiasm for regime change and
nation-building around the world.
Bolton and Pompeo represent
precisely those kinds of policies and actions as well as the general foreign
policy outlook that spawned them.
Trump gave every indication during
the campaign that he would reverse those policies and avoid those kinds of
actions. He even went so far, in his
inimitable way, of accusing the Bush administration of lying to the American
people in taking the country to war in Iraq, as opposed to making a
reckless and stupid, though honest, mistake about that country’s weapons of
mass destruction.
He said it would be great to get
along with Russia and criticized NATO’s aggressive eastward push. He said our aim in Syria should be to
combat Islamist extremism, not depose Bashar al-Assad as its leader. IN
PROMULGATING HIS AMERICA FIRST APPROACH, HE SPECIFICALLY ESCHEWED ANY INTEREST
IN NATION-BUILDING ABROAD…
Still, generally speaking, anyone
listening to Trump carefully before the election would have been justified in
concluding that, if he meant what he
said, he would reverse America’s post-Cold War foreign policy as practiced by
George W. Bush and Barack Obama…
Thus any neutral observer, at the
time of Mattis’s selection as defense secretary, might have concluded that he
was more bent on an adventurous American foreign policy than his boss. But it
turned out to be just the opposite. There are two reasons for this. First, Mattis is cautious by nature, and he
seems to have taken Trump at his word that he didn’t want any more unnecessary
American wars of choice.
Hence he opposed the withdrawal
from the Iran nuclear deal prior to Trump’s decision to pull America out of it. That action greatly increased the chances
that America and Iran could find themselves on a path to war. Mattis also
redeployed some military resources from the Middle East to other areas designed
to check actions by Russia and China, which he considered greater threats to
U.S. security.
And second, it turns out that Trump
has no true convictions when it comes to world affairs. He brilliantly discerned the frustrations of many Americans over the
foreign policy of the previous 16 years and hit just the right notes to
leverage those frustrations during the campaign. But his actual foreign policy
has manifested a lack of consistent and strong philosophy…
That seems to have presented a
marvelous opportunity to Bolton and Pompeo, whose philosophy and convictions
are stark and visible to all. Bolton has
made clear his desire for America to bring about regime change in Iran and
North Korea. He supported the Iraq war and has never wavered in the face of
subsequent events. He has advocated a preemptive strike against North Korea.
Pompeo harbors similar views.
Thus a conflict was probably
inevitable between Mattis and these more recent administration arrivals. The
New York Times speculates that Bolton
likely undermined Mattis’s standing in Trump’s eyes. Writes the paper:
“Mr. Bolton, an ideological conservative whose views on foreign policy are more
hawkish than those of Mr. Mattis, appears
to have deepened the president’s suspicions that his defense secretary’s
view of the world is more like those of Democrats than his own…”
Thus it appears we may be seeing
before our eyes the transformation of
Trump the anti-establishment candidate into Trump the presidential neocon.
Yes, it’s out with the new and in with the old. Trump
vowed a renewal of American interests in the form of infrastructure renewal, a strong
American workforce, secure borders and an end to the senseless Bush/Obama
foreign wars that are sapping the American economy of trillions of dollars a
year. The Bush neocons, including the
latest Supreme Court justices’ only interests are covering up the crimes of the
George Bush Administration and the Barack Obama Administration and committing
even worse atrocities under the Trump Administration. Blurring the lines between good and evil has
been a mainstay of American foreign policy since the overthrow of the American
government in December of 2000.
A bullying foreign policy and a domestic policy of tax cuts
during war and deregulated Wall Street Banks has reversed course in America
leading to its own destruction. In 2000
America was at peace in the world, and was a vibrant lender nation with a
surplus in its treasury. The Bush
Administration reversed course and turned America into a debtor nation bogged
down in endless undeclared wars across the globe making the US a weak,
subservient partner to Saudi Arabia and Israel, quaking in their boots. Why else is America unable to punish Saudi
Arabia for their attacks against America.

Excerpt:
Forget Oil, Saudis Have Two Other Nuclear Options Against the US If
Pushed Too Far
There are not one, not two, but three 'weapons' on the "nuclear
option" menu for Saudi Arabia to strike back at any US sanctions stemming
from its alleged murder and dismemberment of dissident journalist Jamal
Khashoggi in what is now being reported as a "botched interrogation."
The first is simple and well known - "oil" - cutting
off its own supply "nose" to send prices to $100, $200, or $400 may
end up spiting its own face however.
So let's take a look at some other
options.
The second, and relatively well known, potential course for
retaliation is in its choice of who to
buy its weapons from... President
Trump has so far stated his unwillingness to impose any kind of punishment on
Saudi Arabia, and as Statista's Martin Armstrong notes, this could be why - the U.S. is the world's biggest exporter of
arms and according to data from the Stockholm International Peace Research
Institute, the biggest importer from the
country in 2017 was Saudi Arabia. As
Trump himself warned, there are plenty more "sellers" of deadly
weapons in the world.
However, there is a third - potentially most existentially challenging option that the Saudis
could unleash would be 'dumping its Treasury Holdings'.
Since the start of 2014, with only
one small blip in 2014/15 as oil prices collapsed, the Saudis have been generous buyers of US Treasurys - recycling
their petrodollars in this virtuous relationship...
So - could the Saudis unwind their
Treasury book? Or even stop recycling those petrodollars anytime soon? The
answer is yes, especially given the
impacts that tyrannical hegemonic actions of Washington in recent years
have had on the rest of the world, increasingly pushing them all away from
the dollar-centric world payments systems.
Is this really a good time for President Trump to throw
America's lot in with the same dolts who reversed America from a strong,
wealthy nation into a debtor nation dependent upon arms sales to keep it out of
bankruptcy? America’s allies have become
our worst enemies. Yet the Deep State
would have Americans believe that Russia is one of our worst enemies. What has Russia done to America? From Veterans Today:
Excerpt:
What is Behind “Russiagate”?
We will know our disinformation program is
complete when everything the American public believes is false. - Former CIA Director William Casey 1981
Two extremely important facts about
the United States of America must always be borne in mind. Firstly,
the US military industrial complex (MIC) eats about one trillion dollars from
the US kitty every year.
THE MILITARY INDUSTRY IS
PRIVATELY OWNED. It has been established that over the past two
decades or so, a total of $21 trillion have gone missing from the US government
accounts. This unbelievable discovery was made by Dr.
Mark Skidmore, Associate Professor, Michigan State University, and Catherine
Austin Fitts, former Assistant Secretary for Housing and Urban Development [1].
It has been pointed out by Professor Joan Roelofs that the MIC now dominates
every important facet of US life. Based on her research, she concludes that the military-industrial complex has
now become the military-industrial-congressional-almost-everything complex [2].
The second related fact is a
consequence of the enormous money at the disposal of the MIC. The MIC “owns” the Congress, the media, and
now increasingly, the universities… Former Assistant Secretary of Treasury,
Paul Craig Roberts states [4]:
“And don’t forget Udo Ulfkotte, an
editor of the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, who wrote in his best seller, Bought Journalism, that there was not a significant journalist
in Europe who was not on the CIA’s payroll. The English language edition of
Ulfkotte’s book has been suppressed and prevented from publication…”
Paul Craig Roberts has also stated
that that when he received his briefing as a staff associate of the House Defence
Appropriations Subcommittee, he was
informed by a “senior member of the committee that the Washington Post was a
CIA asset.” To become a staff associate of the said committee top security
clearance was required [5].
So what is “Russia-hack” about? Why
has Trump been targeted by the mainstream media? The
persistence, vehemence and intensity of the media onslaught on Trump emanates
from the MIC control of media. Trump’s
attempts to reduce tensions with Russia are at the root of the “Russia-hack”
fiction.
Reduction of tensions with Russia will lead to a drastic reduction in
the one-trillion-dollar heist being enjoyed by the privately owned MIC. The claim that Russians hacked into Democratic
National Committee (DNC) computers to help Trump in defeating Hillary Clinton
has no basis. As Stephen Lendman wrote (emphasis in original) [6]:
“Propaganda works, proved effective
time and again – why it’s a key tool in America’s deep state playbook. Virtually anything repeated enough,
especially through the major media megaphone, gets most people to believe it –
no matter how preposterous the claim. Not a shred of evidence suggests
Russia meddled in America’s political process – nothing.”
On July 24, 2017, intel vets
belonging to VIPS (Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity) challenged
the “Russia Hack” evidence. In a memorandum to the President, sixteen veteran
intelligence officers wrote that forensic studies had clearly established that DNC computers were NOT hacked. The studies
indicated that (emphasis in original) “on July 5, 2016 data was leaked (not
hacked) by a person with physical access to DNC computers, then doctored to
incriminate Russia…”
Why did the media ignore these
independent studies? Simply because those
who run the World Order must mould the American mind in the direction of waging
war against Russia, if Russia does not submit to US hegemony…
The authors of the memorandum point
out that the January 6 “Intelligence
Community Assessment” by “hand-picked” analysts from the FBI, CIA, and NSA
seems to fit into the same agenda-driven category. It is largely based on an
“assessment,” not supported by any apparent evidence . . .”
What is the agenda? It is simple: the public must believe that
Russia is the enemy of US “Democracy”, and Trump must not be allowed to improve
relations with Russia. If he does make an attempt, he must be portrayed as
being indebted to Putin for favouring him by hacking into DNC computers! Trump should thereby be accused of
betraying US interests, even treason!.. As
Paul Craig Roberts wrote on August 23, 2018 [10]:
“After two years the only evidence
we have of Russiagate is that it is a conspiracy against President Trump and
the American people. Indeed, Mueller,
fully aware that there was no Trump-Putin conspiracy, has not bothered to
look for any evidence as there can be no evidence of something that did not
happen… Mueller’s investigation of
Manafort has nothing to do with the Russiagate story line…
What was Manafort found guilty of?
Manafort was not found guilty of Russiagate.
He was charged with tax-evasion
by “misrepresenting his financial position on a loan application…”
This matter, as noted by Roberts, lies in the jurisdiction of the
Internal Revenue Service (IRS), not the special prosecutor of the “Russia
hack” case. And to break Manafort psychologically, so that he may say
something false which could incriminate Trump, he was kept in solitary confinement. This is 21st century America!
Kevin Barrett has pointed that if Manafort can be apprehended because he
was an “unregistered agent” of a foreign country (Ukraine) then the same must
apply for the Israel lobby. American law requires that if one is lobbying
with government officials for a foreign government in the US then one must
register formally with the Justice Department…
Barrett quotes the well-known writer James Petras, who estimates that around 500,000
foot soldiers of the Israel lobby operate in the US. Barrett writes
[12]:
“Why should Philip Zelikow, sole author of 9/11 Commission Report and presumed
author of the script for 9/11 itself, be allowed to ‘create and maintain public myths’ on behalf of Israel without
registering as a foreign agent?
Why should Rabbi Don Zakheim be allowed to serve as comptroller of the Pentagon
and ‘lose 2.3 trillion dollars the night before 9/11 on behalf of the state of
Israel, without registering as a foreign agent?
Why should IDF veteran and presumed
Mossad honcho Rahm Emmanuel be allowed
to run Obama’s presidency from his perch as the White House Chief of Staff, torpedoing Obama’s plan to end wars, close
Guantanamo, and prosecute torturers, without registering as a foreign
agent?”
The list is endless. Larry Silverstein who walked away with 5
billion dollars after blowing up his own buildings and confessing to the
deed with registering as an Israeli agent.
Judge Alvin Hallerstein has not registered as a Zionist agent but has
been given control of all 9/11 documents so that he may suppress or quash any
discovery implicating Israel.
Jerome Hauer apparently managed the anthrax attacks and helped
orchestrate 9/11 attacks without registering as an Israeli lobbyist. And above
all, as Kevin Barrett puts it [13]…
This is the same MSM that is
targeting the exceptionally pro-Israel Trump, because the MIC, whose owners own
not just the military-industry, but also Israel, do not want any peace and
normalisation of ties with Russia. Israel
will not come to Trump’s rescue, but shall, instead, look for directions from
her masters, the oldest and richest international bankers…
And yet, Russia we are told by the Deep State is our enemy
and Israel is our friend. But is Russia
an enemy of the American people and is Israel a friend of the American
people? And what about the British
Empire? From LaRouche pub:
Excerpt:
As Election Day Approaches, the British Have Overplayed their Hand
In the final countdown to the 2018
midterm elections, an important question on the minds of potential voters is
exactly what really happened in 2016. Yes,
a foreign power intervened massively to fix the election result beforehand. At
the same time, that power created a backup plan to ensure that if Donald Trump
were elected despite its efforts, it would be able to paralyze and destroy his
incoming Administration and remove him from office.
This foreign power was not Putin’s Russia, but the British Empire. As EIR has documented in depth for the past
two years, the phony evidentiary basis for the charges of Russian intervention
and of Trump’s “collusion” with Russia, originally consisted of nothing but false evidence planted on Trump associates by British agents on British soil.
The tactical leader of the British
plot was Sir Richard Dearlove, the former head of the British Secret
Intelligence Service (MI6) who also led
the fabrication of the “dirty dossier” on purported Iraqi weapons of mass
destruction for the catastrophic Iraq War of 2003 to date. Christopher
Steele fabricated his own “dossier” under the same Dearlove…
On Oct. 15, the nationally
prominent lawyer Joseph diGenova, a former U.S. Attorney for Washington, D.C.,
gave an explosive interview to WMAL radio there. The following is a paraphrase of some of his
remarks.
DiGenova: This is why the British are scared. . . . British MI6 conducted illegal
electronic surveillance on U.S. citizens at the request of the FBI and
[CIA’s] Brennan. That’s how they found out [George] Papadopoulos was
not interested in Hillary’s emails or anything else. Illegal spying by the Brits. That’s why the Brits are going
crazy.
That’s a remarkable issue. We talk
about domestic surveillance all the time. But
when you stretch out to work with foreign governments—read “collude”—to spy on
an American citizen, that really opens up an entirely different can of
worms.
It opens up a huge criminal liability on the part of American intelligence officials,
especially Brennan. Brennan actually visited London, before all this
started, and visited MI6 and GCHQ before it started. . . .
WMAL: The President has chosen not
to declassify certain documents. . . .
DiGenova: Trump won’t declassify certain documents because two foreign
governments asked him not to.
This is a different President. He is now in full control of his
Presidency. He is playing everyone in his orbit. He knows exactly what
needs to be made public, and is holding it close to his vest. He is playing it
like a masterful Stradivarius—for when it will have maximum impact; to use it
at the maximum moment. Trump is in full control of his Presidency. You saw it last night with Lesley Stahl,
when he said, “I’m President, and you’re not.” Throwing it in her face. . .
.
Obama’s illegal spying will have
two political consquences. Trump understands the coup against him. . . . He is
not trying to measure the election; he understands that the coup was so massive;
why Susan Rice did her famous email to
herself on inauguration day. Why you see stories of her [saying], of course the
White House knew about the Russiagate thing. They were involved in it, so
that if Trump refused to accept election results, they’d have a way to undercut
his legitimacy.
WMAL: Will we see this information
ahead of election day?
DiGenova: I don’t know. Trump is in
full control. He knows Mueller’s
investigation is over because it was illegal. Because of British spying, which
our FBI asked them to do. So much worse than Watergate! If Republicans lose
the House, these investigations are over, because [Senate Intelligence Chair]
Burr is a chicken—the only way it will come out is through a criminal
investigation by DOJ, and that won’t happen unless Sessions and
Rosenstein are gone after the election.
If we lose the House, all of the
investigations come to an end. Every one of them. Because the people in the
Senate have no “cojones.”
WMAL: I hope Trump declassifies the
FISA warrants. What’s in them?
DiGenova: They will show Halper used a CIA agent to entrap
Papadopoulos and [Carter] Page, and funnel back to the U.S., to the FBI, to get
the FISA warrant. [To get British intelligence agencies] MI6 and GCHQ to do
illegal overseas surveillance of the these people—totally illegal! The application [for a FISA warrant]
presents [Page] as in cahoots. They
knew it was all fabricated.
What ramifications can the American people expect from our
leaders blind loyalty to the Saudi Royal family? What ramifications can the American people
expect from our leaders blind loyalty to the British Empire, to the Israeli
lobby? Who are America’s allies and who
are America’s friends? Are the Deep
State’s “friends” the American people’s friends? Are the Deep State’s “foes” the American
people’s foes? Who is who? For the American people it’s hard to tell.
