Douglas - The CIA Covenant-Nazis in Washington - preterhuman.net

some note of their activities instead of pointing at the mote in the eyes of others while ignoring the beam inthe eye of an entity they doubtless feel an affinity for.When Müller came to Washington in 1948, he had rarely moved among the mighty or directlyengaged in counseling those who charted the nation¹s course. For the first time, he saw the inner workingof a democratic government and began to find out how easy it was to make his way, a friendly wolf trottingthrough pens of hogs and sheep.His journals show with clarity his rapid acclamation to this new situation as well as the increase ofhis fortune by dealing in stolen art, and after the outbreak of the Korean War, as a classical war profiteer inthe same mold as those great captains of industry who got their phenomenal beginnings during theAmerican Civil War.Müller met, courted and married a woman from the upper levels of main line Washington society,and lived in a large estate in the neighboring state of Virginia, a mansion he filled with fine art, interestingguests and all the authentic trappings of the landed gentry.Although his reason for existence was to hunt down communist spies, one of his better friendswas a man whom Müller identified as a top NKVD agent. Müller was not an ideologue but certainly was apragmatist and he had no problem discussing shop with men like Kim Philby and his Soviet-cum-Canadianfriend, Viktor. By doing this, Müller does not reveal himself to be a traitor to his new employers, but rathera genuine professional.Although Müller had two wives, this did not stop him from having a series of affairs with some ofthe wives of his co-workers at the CIA, as well as other women in Washington society. There is noquestion that his wife was aware of at least some of this (women always are), but she ignored it becausethey were a genuinely affectionate couple and she was less conventional than he was. Müller, whomaintained the best relationships with his former lovers, used to say in explanation of his popularity, thathe always began an affair with a smile and ended it the same way.In his description of American foreign policy at the turn of the twentieth century, TeddyRoosevelt referred to walking softly but carrying a big stick. Müller was not always as soft a walker butunlike Teddy, he carried a small weapon in his hip pocket. This weapon consisted of the files and recordshe kept on his employers and their friends, and he had no hesitation in reminding his putative enemies thathe was a crack shot. For those not given to intelligent understanding, there were always the attentions ofhisclose associate, Arno, or others.In their dreams of empire, the leadership of the new CIA were certain of their deadliness. Theybelieved that they were the state and all would perish who opposed them. Müller believed nothing sograndiose and nonsensical but knew what he could and would do to anyone who actively opposed him andthis, of course, is an excellent example of fact versus fiction.In the final analysis, those official agencies who claim that the Müller works are fictional in naturehave the greatest reason for so stating but also the greatest experience in fabricating their own history.There is a line found in Shakespeare, that it is the “galled jade that winces.” For those readers notconversant with Elizabethan usage, it might be more American to say that it is the kicked dog that yelps.It is not possible for an author to prepare a work on any historical subject in a vacuum. Recordshave to be searched for and consulted, leads tracked down and verified, and individuals who might haveimportant information contacted. Because of this, an author¹s activities may be muffled but are certainlynot impossible to observe for those who have a vested interest in doing so.The basic thesis of these books is acutely disturbing for a number of people, most of whom live orwork in Washington or one of its suburbs. Those who wish to protect their own professional reputations aswell as the reputation of their agency, spend a good deal of time and money, supplied by the taxpayers, inattempting to neutralize or discredit that which cannot be accepted.Certainty is illusion and there are individuals who work for the same agencies and supply theauthor with an increasing flow of inside information concerning the subject of the late Heinrich Müller. Asa case in point, there has been an on-going series of high-level communications between senior members ofthe CIA in Langley, Virginia, and senior officials inside the intelligence agencies of the Russian Republic.Almost all of this traffic is directed to one Vyacheslav Ivanovich Trubnikov in Moscow. Mr. Trubnikov is,at this writing, head of Russian Foreign Intelligence and is on excellent terms with his opposite numbers inthe United States. All intelligence agencies maintain cordial professional relations with their purportedenemies and will regularly cooperate with their rivals in various matters, and the Müller case is certainlyone of them.
