Some of these insidious programs have been active since the C.I.A.'s founding in 1947. Whenever news of the existence of these programs leaks into the mainstream media, the rogue C.I.A. hive marginalizes it by calling it "conspiracy theories" using all the MSM talking heads. Readers should know that it was President Johnson and the same rogue C.I.A. who had President John F. Updated Mar . 19, 2014 Kennedy killed. JFK had stated to aides that he that he wanted to "splinter the C.I.A. into a thousand pieces and scatter it to the winds." The C.I.A. invented the label "conspiracy theory" to cover up their involvement. However, that conspiracy trolling seems to be losing its effectiveness, along with their well-researched triggering epithets like "racist, homophobe, misogyny, sexist!" Facts are not theories.

  • Like It Or Not, Trump Has a Point: FISA Reform and the Appearance of Partisanship in Intelligence Investigations by Stewart Baker1
    Like It or Not, Trump Has a Point: FISA Reform and the Appearance of Partisanship in Intelligence Investigations by Stewart Baker1 To protect the country from existential threats, its intelligence capabilities need to be extraordinary -- and extraordinarily intrusive. The more intrusive they are, the greater the risk they will be abused. So, since the attacks of 9/11, debate over civil liberties has focused almost exclusively on the threat that intelligence abuses pose to the individuals and disfavored minorities. That made sense when our intelligence agencies were focused on terrorism carried out by small groups of individuals. But a look around the world shows that intelligence agencies can be abused in ways that are even more dangerous, not just to individuals but to democracy. Using security agencies to surveil and suppress political opponents is always a temptation for those in power. It is a temptation from which the United States has not escaped. The FBI’s director for life, J. Edgar Hoover, famously maintained his power by building files on numerous Washington politicians and putting his wiretapping and investigative capabilities at the service of Presidents pursuing political vendettas. That risk is making a comeback. The United States used the full force of its intelligence agencies to hold terrorism at bay for twenty years, but we paid too little attention to geopolitical adversaries who are now using chipping away at our strengths in ways we did not expect. As American intelligence reshapes itself to deal with new challenges from Russia and China, it is no longer hunting small groups of terrorists in distant deserts.

  • VIPS' William Binney Advarer: Russiagate
    Hvad er geopolitik? Første del: Historie. LaRouche PAC’s Undervisningsserie 2018, »Hvad er det Nye Paradigme?«, Lektion 2, 17. feb. 2018 Der var de fortsatte provokationer i Mellemøsten, provokationer i Asien, Koreakrigen, Vietnamkrigen – dette var geopolitik med det formål at bevare Det britiske Imperium. Og desværre, med mordet på Kennedy, blev USA en partner i det, man kunne kalde et »anglo-amerikansk geopolitisk imperium«. Og hvad gik politikkerne ud på? Frihandel, neoliberal økonomi, nedskæringspolitik. Svækkelse af regeringer, svækkelse af ideen om national suverænitet og etablering af institutioner som den Europæiske Union, der ønsker ikkevalgte bureaukrater til at bestemme politikker for det, der plejede at være nationalstater. Det så ud, som om alt dette kunne ændre sig i 1989, med den kommunistiske verdens fald, med det østtyske regimes kollaps og Berlinmurens fald. På dette tidspunkt intervenerede LaRouche-organisationen meget direkte, for et alternativ til geopolitik. Lyndon LaRouche var blevet fængslet af George Bush, med assistance fra den daværende vicestatsanklager i Boston, Robert Mueller. Men Helga Zepp-LaRouche anførte kampen for det, vi dengang kaldte den Produktive Trekant Paris- Berlin-Wien, og dernæst, så tidligt som i slutningen af 1990, det, der blev kaldt den »Nye Silkevej« eller den Eurasiske Landbro, som et middel til at bringe nationer sammen og overvinde disse kunstige opdelinger, skabt af Det britiske Imperium. Download (PDF, Unknown) EIR: Man det britiske kup i jorden: Muellers anklageskrifter mod russiske sociale medietrolde platter det amerikanske folk Som vi gentagne gange har vist, så er den strategiske sammenhæng for kuppet mod Trump en fuldt optrappet bestræbelse på at bevare den anglo-amerikanske orden imod det, der opfattes som Kinas fremvoksende magt, som nu er allieret med Rusland.

  • Defending Against Neural Fake News
    Defending Against Neural Fake News Rowan Zellers♠, Ari Holtzman♠, Hannah Rashkin♠, Yonatan Bisk♠ Ali Farhadi♠♥, Franziska Roesner♠, Yejin Choi♠♥ ♠Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering, University of Washington ~Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence https://rowanzellers.com/grover Abstract Recent progress in natural language generation has raised dual-use concerns. While applications like summarization and translation are positive, the underlying tech- nology also might enable adversaries to generate neural fake news: targeted propa- ganda that closely mimics the style of real news. Modern computer security relies on careful threat modeling: identifying potential threats and vulnerabilities from an adversary’s point of view, and exploring potential mitigations to these threats. Likewise, developing robust defenses against neural fake news requires us first to carefully investigate and characterize the risks of these models. We thus present a model for controllable text generation called Grover. Given a headline like ‘Link Found Between Vaccines and Autism,’ Grover can generate the rest of the article; humans find these generations to be more trustworthy than human-written disinformation. Developing robust verification techniques against generators like Grover is critical. We find that best current discriminators can classify neural fake news from real, human-written, news with 73% accuracy, assuming access to a moderate level of training data. Counterintuitively, the best defense against Grover turns out to be Grover itself, with 92% accuracy, demonstrating the importance of public release of strong generators. We investigate these results further, showing that exposure bias – and sampling strategies that alleviate its effects – both leave artifacts that similar discriminators can pick up on.

A4_INGBER (DO NOT DELETE) 10/26/2018 8:48 AM Bureaucratic Resistance and the National Security State Rebecca Ingber* ABSTRACT: Modern accounts of the national security state tend toward one of two opposing views of bureaucratic tensions within it: At one extreme, the executive branch bureaucracy is a shadowy “deep state,” unaccountable to the public or even to the elected President. On this account, bureaucratic obstacles to the President’s agenda are inherently suspect, even dangerous. At the other end, bureaucratic resistance to the President represents a necessary benevolent constraint on an otherwise imperial executive. This account hails the bureaucracy as the modern incarnation of the separation of powers, an alternative to the traditional checks on the President of the courts and Congress, which are faulted with falling down on the job. These “deep state” and “benevolent constraints” approaches to bureaucratic behavior track debates in the scholarship over the legitimacy of the administrative state more broadly, and are used as rhetorical devices to challenge or defend current allocations of power.

    Litigating National Security Cases in the Aftermath of 9/11 David C. Vladeck* The treacherous terrorist attacks against the United States on September 11, 2001, and the aftershocks that are still being felt years later, have had a profound effect on the legal landscape in the United States. In 9/11’s immediate aftermath, Congress, in a rare and fleeting moment of bi- partisanship, gave the President far-reaching authority to combat terrorism. Among other measures, Congress authorized the President to use military force against the 9/11 terrorists and those who aided or harbored them,1 enacted the USA PATRIOT Act to give the President unprecedented law enforcement and detention authority over suspected terrorists and those believed to be providing material support to terrorists,2 placed entire categories of unclassified, previously accessible, government-held information off-limits to the public,3 and, by creating the Department of Homeland Security, reorganized the Executive Branch to consolidate and better coordinate our nation’s security agencies.4 The President has used this authority to undertake massive and ongoing military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, to detain indefinitely and without criminal charges hundreds of foreign nationals and even American citizens,5 to step up counter-terrorism * Director of the Institute of Public Representation and Professor of Law, Georgetown University Law Center. This article draws mainly on my experience as a litigator, not as an academic. Prior to joining the full-time faculty at Georgetown in 2002, I spent more than twenty-five years at the Public Citizen Litigation Group, first as a staff attorney and then as director.

    The Ethical Resister’s Last Resort: News Coverage over the Allegations of a National Security Whistleblower ______________________________________________ A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School At the University of Missouri-Columbia __________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Sociology _____________________________________________ by Ryan Amundson Dr. Clarence Lo, Thesis Supervisor May 2009 The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the thesis entitled THE ETHICAL RESISTER’S LAST RESORT: NEWS COVERAGE OVER THE ALLEGATIONS OF A NATIONAL SECURITY WHISTLEBLOWER presented by Ryan Amundson, a candidate for the degree of master of arts, and hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. Professor Clarence Lo Professor Victoria Johnson Professor Charles Davis ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank all the members of my thesis committee, Dr. Clarence Lo, Dr. Victoria Johnson, and Dr. Charles Davis for all of their help. Their comments and criticisms pushed me to go beyond my own lazy thinking. They were also very understanding of the busy life of a graduate student and tolerant of a thesis running over a hundred pages. Even after receiving drafts at the last minute, all of them still managed to read carefully and offer detailed advice that helped me make my thesis into something worthwhile. I want to thank Dr. Clarence Lo especially for the many hours we spent throughout the last couple of years discussing my thesis and all the support and encouragement he provided. Putting together a thesis is not an individual job, and I am grateful to all those among the faculty and graduate students at the University of Missouri-Columbia who helped me along the way.
