BANG FOR THE BUCK

Guest Post by Ol’ Remus

art-remus-ident-04.jpg Let’s see how much “bang for the buck” we’re getting from DC’s bespoke suited and storied intelligence services. Pearl Harbor in 1941, oops. The Ardennes Counteroffensive, or Battle of the Bulge, in 1944, the biggest battle fought by the US in World War II, sprung while DC was certain German resistance had collapsed. China entering the Korean War in 1950, big surprise, where did they come from?

Russia, which DC said “couldn’t build a decent alarm clock”, launched the first satellite ev-ver in 1957, the first of many firsts, even ‘though DC’s odious Operation Paperclip “guaranteed” it couldn’t happen.

Castro took over Cuba in 1959, obviously some sort of fluke. Put the 1968 Tet Offensive in Viet Nam alongside the Battle of the Bulge. Then it was DC’s biggest “unknown unknown” of all time, the dissolution of the USSR in 1991. Didn’t see that coming. Too busy schmoozing with their counterparts at KGB to take care of business, perhaps.

Then came the destruction of the World Trade Center in 2001 by Moslem amateurs who all but took out announcements in the newspapers. Nobody coulda knowed, except anyone who did their job. And we can be assured they were stunned by the absolutely unpossible election of Donald Trump in 2016.

DC’s intelligence services routinely embarrass themselves, decade after decade, yet they strut their stuff and talk wink-wink conspiratorially at Georgetown cocktail parties. Okay. But why do we listen to these people? They’re either lying or incompetent or delusional, same result whichever way.

These bastards, like all other gov’t leeches don’t suffer any consequences from their failures. In fact failure often means they get more money and/or political power. So they’re caught with their pants down (or were told to stand down) on 9/11 and busher gave them all raises and medals. Yet, dangerous, lying charlatans like clapper and brenan are still treated like experts and sages by all to many americans. You eventually get what you deserve in this world. Or so we can hope.

Intelligence in the government vernacular is an oxymoron. The novels that have been foisted upon us, touting the infallibility of the CIA, NSA, et al have us believing they have something special in their DNA. Wrong, they put their trousers on one leg at a time just like you and me. Should they get something right, they crow about it, when they get it wrong it’s the other guys fault or they bury it so deep it will never see the light of day. In a 1960’s spoof of the “Profumo Affair” a character said; “In Britain today we have the finest intelligence organization, unfortunately it is run by the Russians”. I feel we might take a page from that playbook, here and now. -30-

I love Remus…every Tues. morning, he’s there.

The intel “services,” together or apart, advance
their agendas, and pursue their financial enrichment,
spy and commit atrocities, lie like rugs, and are
generally very unattractive as an encore.

DC’s “intelligence” services were created by and are owned by our deep state elite owners to serve our deep state elite owners.

When viewed from that perspective their “successes” and “failures” make much more sense.

Sorry bud, I was an Officer at Hqs SAC and your statement is totally biased and false: “even ‘though DC’s odious Operation Paperclip “guaranteed” it wouldn’t happen”. The ex-Nazi rocket scientist we located at Huntsville told Eisenhower (a Zionist) that the Russians (with ex-Nazi scientist help) could launch a satellite at any moment but he forbid the ex-Germans from working on a Heavy Rocket (but he assigned them build a tactical rocket for the Army); he gave all the contracts for Heavy Rockets to his Jewish associates (via the Military). On 4Oct57, the USSR did it. Every US Army, Navy and USAF rocket in development failed. Our Germans then revealed that they had been secretly building a Redstone multistage rocket and Explorer satellite. On 1Feb58, our German scientist were allowed to launch their rocket and you know the rest: they were then allowed to participate in our Heavy Rocket program and put US ahead. Give anti-German Eisenhower a Bronx Cheer and a big thank you to those brilliant loyal hard-working American ex-Nazis.

For some reason you are assuming that these were “failures.” From the prospective of those who profited from the future actions of the US government, they were all HUGE successes. Follow the money.
