LOOMING DISASTER

From Anti-Semitism to Terrorism
If the Democratic contender for the White House did not know
that Treblinka was a Nazi death camp in Poland, whereas the KGB
headquarters was, and still is, the Lubyanka, what should we suppose
he learned about disinformation from seeing all those files – written
in a language he could not read?
Speaking of not knowing the language, on March 6, 2009, in
Geneva, Secretary of State Hilary Clinton presented Russian Representative
to the United Nations Sergei Lavrov with a red button
with the Russian text перегрузка. Clinton thought
this was the Russian word for “reset,” explaining she wanted to
reset relations between the two nations. As mentioned earlier,
Lavrov explained that перегрузка actually means
“overcharge.” The two pressed the button anyway, but the dealings
between Russia and the USA following the “reset” suggest that
Clinton’s diplomacy was on par with her linguistic skills.
I do not doubt Hillary Clinton’s and Secretary’s Kerry’s patriotism,
but I have reason to believe they have been deluded by the
KGB disinformation machinery. Once I was deluded too. So was
the ever-optimistic President George W. Bush, who in his second
inaugural address said of the former KGB head Vladimir Putin:
“We’re friends, and that’s important.”
The KGB is indeed a difficult read, but I believe that Russia’s
upper class enthroned the head of the KGB in the Kremlin for a
reason. That country’s aristocrats love Byzantine disinformation
– generations of them kidded themselves about the glorious state
of their Soviet Union – and the new KGB makes them feel clever
again. Over the years, this Russian, Soviet, and now again Russian
political police has changed its name many times, from Okhrana
to Cheka, to GPU, to OGPU, to NKVD, to NKGB, to MGB, to
MVD, to KGB, to MSB, to MB, to FSK, to FSB, and the anagram
game will certainly continue in order to hide its real roots. Since
the sixteenth century’s Ivan the Terrible, all Russian rulers ran the
country with the help of their intelligence organizations. That was
