Descending Into Darkness: the Harring Report Descending Into Darkness: The Making of a ‘Wartime President’ The Harring Report Brian Harring TBR News 1 “THE HARRING REPORT IS ANOTHER ‘DEEP THROAT’” Published for the first time ever, Descending Into Darkness includes the complete (at the time this book went to press) DoD official list of U.S. Military casualties in Afghanistan and Iraq. Also in Prelude to Disaster: • Events leading up to Operation Iraqi Freedom • War in Iraq - Russian Military Intelligence Reports & Assessment [March 17-April 8, 2003] • The “Nazi” Neocons – Who are they? • The Secret Downing Street Memo – Setting the Stage for WMD • Israeli Espionage Against the United States Week of February 18, 2003 - Millions of people around the world demonstrated against George W. Bush's coming war on Iraq. More than a million people rallied in London, and 500,000 gathered at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin. There were protests in Amsterdam, Brussels, Barcelona, Melbourne, Paris, Rome, Seoul, Tokyo, and at least 600 other cities. http://www.harpers.org/WeeklyReview2003-02-18.html - 20030930010642-8182728640 The U.S. military admitted it had spammed thousands of Iraqis with email messages urging them to defy Saddam Hussein. http://www.harpers.org/WeeklyReview2003-01-14.html - 20030930010256-1411612284 Ari Fleischer, the White House spokesman, said “slowly but surely the hearts and minds of the Iraqi people are being won over as they see security increase in their areas, as humanitarian deliveries are stepped up.” American officers said they had been studying the Israeli occupation of Palestine for pointers. Russian Intelligence Report: “The sand is literally ‘eating up’ the equipment. Sand has a particularly serious effect on electronics and transmissions of combat vehicles. Already more than 40 tanks and up to 69 armored personnel carriers have been disabled due to damaged engines; more than 150 armored vehicles have lost the use of their heat-seeking targeting sights and night vision equipment. Fine dust gets into all openings and clogs up all moving parts.” President Bush, aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln, May 1, 2003: “Major combat operations in Iraq have ended. In the battle of Iraq, the United States and our allies have prevailed. (Applause) And now our coalition is engaged in securing and reconstructing that country. In this battle, we have fought for the cause of liberty, and for the peace of the world. Our nation and our coalition are proud of this accomplishment . the tyrant has fallen, and Iraq is free. (Applause) 2 “On principle, we don't want the United Nations running around Iraq.” Hans Blix, the UN weapons inspector, pointed out that “we found as little, but with less cost.” Military officials admitted that they were holding children in the high-security prison for terrorists at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, even though they had not been accused of any offense, and said they would be detained “until we ensure that they're no longer a threat to the United States.” http://www.harpers.org/WeeklyReview2003-04-29.html - 20030930012139-6318007748 President Bush, aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln, May 1, 2003: The transition from dictatorship to democracy will take time, but it is worth every effort. Our coalition will stay until our work is done. Then we will leave, and we will leave behind a free Iraq. (Applause) Russian Intelligence Report – “Today we can see that the U.S. advance is characterized by disorganized and ‘impulsive’ actions . Not a single goal set before the coalition forces was met on time . The U.S. underestimated the enemy . Despite unique ability to conduct reconnaissance against the Iraqi military infrastructure through a wide network of agents implanted with international teams of weapons inspectors, despite unlimited air dominance, U.S. military command failed to adequately evaluate combat readiness of the Iraqi army and its technical capabilities.” “The U.S. failed to correctly assess the social and political situation in Iraq and in the world in general. These failures led to entirely inadequate military and political decisions . Buildup and distribution of the coalition forces have been conducted with gross neglect of all basic rules of combat . Limited decision-making time and the ability to detect and engage an enemy at a great distance make ‘friendly fire’ one of the most serious problems of modern warfare. For now the coalition has no adequate solution to this problem. Every day at one location or another, coalition troops have been attacking friendly forces . The second problem of the coalition is its inability to hold on to the captured territory . .” President Bush, recalling 9/11: “I was sitting outside the classroom waiting to go in, and I saw an airplane hit the tower . the TV was obviously on. And I used to fly myself, and I said, ‘Well, there’s one terrible pilot.’ I said, ‘it must have been a horrible accident.’ But I was whisked off there. I didn’t have much time to think about it.” 3 Copyright, 2005 by TBR News, Chicago, IL All rights exclusively reserved.

Roger Helbig, USAF (ret.) whose splendid career and outstanding character have been a beacon to many others. The Author 5 Foreword Prelude to Disaster Out of all the conspiracy theories arising out of the 9/11 attacks, there is one that stands out very clearly. Given the significant number of proven warnings passed to the American government, at the highest levels, prior to the attack, the curious lack of official concern stands out significantly. Although none of the critics of the Bush Administration have dared to say so in public, it does not seem unrealistic to say that in all probability, George Bush and a number of his top officials, were fully aware that a attack by Arabs against specific American targets was not only highly probable but fully, and specifically expected. No official warnings were issued precisely because such an attack, if actually executed, would prove to be of great value to the Administration in allowing it to implement certain internal control projects that could never be even contemplated without the impetus of a severe national tragedy. A White House that would deliberately, and feloniously, release information about an undercover CIA agent would certainly be possessed of a mind-set that would eagerly await an incident that could only increase its power. That many thousands would die and the nation would be plunged into turmoil and apprehension for years afterwards would clearly be of no pressing concern to them. What would be of pressing concern to them would be the loss of a power, which permitted them to indulge in their imperial fantasies unimpeded. Fortunately for the rest of the world, they have been so arrogant and so inept that one exposure has followed upon another to the point that, though they maintain official power, they are growing more and more powerless to exercise it. A President who stated in public on a number of occasions that God Almighty had personally placed him in the White House would dismiss any collateral damage from his dreams of a religious empire as a matter that was entirely out of his hands. In this study, great use has been made of classified intelligence documents, a number of which are reproduced in facsimile, and casualty records of the Defense Department that show, beyond any doubt, that the number of dead military personnel in both Iraq and Afghanistan are far in excess of the press releases supplied to the public by the same agency. The first of these documents is a copy of a classified German intelligence document prepared in April of 2002 that gives hitherto unknown information on German intelligence warnings about a pending attack only a month before they happened. The second document is the so-called “Downing Street Memo.” These show with great clarity the real intentions of the Bush administration, obviously determined to use every excuse they could to launch a war for the enhancement of the President’s reputation, a guarantee of Republican control of Congress and an blind, on-going support of the policies of the state of Israel in the Middle East.

    BATTLE-SCARRED AND DIRTY: US ARMY TACTICAL LEADERSHIP IN THE MEDITERRANEAN THEATER, 1942-1943 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Steven Thomas Barry Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Allan R. Millett, Adviser Dr. John F. Guilmartin Dr. John L. Brooke Copyright by Steven T. Barry 2011 Abstract Throughout the North African and Sicilian campaigns of World War II, the battalion leadership exercised by United States regular army officers provided the essential component that contributed to battlefield success and combat effectiveness despite deficiencies in equipment, organization, mobilization, and inadequate operational leadership. Essentially, without the regular army battalion leaders, US units could not have functioned tactically early in the war. For both Operations TORCH and HUSKY, the US Army did not possess the leadership or staffs at the corps level to consistently coordinate combined arms maneuver with air and sea power. The battalion leadership brought discipline, maturity, experience, and the ability to translate common operational guidance into tactical reality. Many US officers shared the same ―Old Army‖ skill sets in their early career. Across the Army in the 1930s, these officers developed familiarity with the systems and doctrine that would prove crucial in the combined arms operations of the Second World War. The battalion tactical leadership overcame lackluster operational and strategic guidance and other significant handicaps to execute the first Mediterranean Theater of Operations campaigns. Three sets of factors shaped this pivotal group of men. First, all of these officers were shaped by pre-war experiences.

  • This Index Lists the Army Units for Which Records Are Available at the Eisenhower Library
    DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER LIBRARY ABILENE, KANSAS U.S. ARMY: Unit Records, 1917-1950 Linear feet: 687 Approximate number of pages: 1,300,000 The U.S. Army Unit Records collection (formerly: U.S. Army, U.S. Forces, European Theater: Selected After Action Reports, 1941-45) primarily spans the period from 1917 to 1950, with the bulk of the material covering the World War II years (1942-45). The collection is comprised of organizational and operational records and miscellaneous historical material from the files of army units that served in World War II. The collection was originally in the custody of the World War II Records Division (now the Modern Military Records Branch), National Archives and Records Service. The material was withdrawn from their holdings in 1960 and sent to the Kansas City Federal Records Center for shipment to the Eisenhower Library. The records were received by the Library from the Kansas City Records Center on June 1, 1962. Most of the collection contained formerly classified material that was bulk-declassified on June 29, 1973, under declassification project number 735035. General restrictions on the use of records in the National Archives still apply. The collection consists primarily of material from infantry, airborne, cavalry, armor, artillery, engineer, and tank destroyer units; roughly half of the collection consists of material from infantry units, division through company levels. Although the collection contains material from over 2,000 units, with each unit forming a separate series, every army unit that served in World War II is not represented. Approximately seventy-five percent of the documents are from units in the European Theater of Operations, about twenty percent from the Pacific theater, and about five percent from units that served in the western hemisphere during World War II.

Academic year 2015-2016 Supervisor: Olaf Du Pont Department of Linguistics Permission We declare that others are allowed to consult and/or reproduce this thesis, if cited. Ward Boone and Johannes Huysmans Acknowledgements First of all, we would like to thank both our thesis supervisor Olaf Du Pont and Multilingual Business Communication coordinator Tom Bruyer. Olaf took into account the fact that this research was conducted during an internship and allowed us to work at our own pace. When needed and shortly before the final deadline, he was still prepared to provide some useful feedback and pointed-out important nuances. The gratitude for Tom is insignificant compared to the effort he puts into the coordination and organization of this master program throughout almost the entire year. Seriously, we do not know where to begin. Secondly, Porter Novelli as a part of the research was done there. Jeroen for showing us to find joy in the trivial things in life, Lies for numerous pleasant carpool rides that significantly softened the blow of those horrible Monday blues and endless traffic jams.
