The Colonel’s Corner Transnational Anti-Communism #3
▶ 37:08 a reputation, again, as being neutral. So the CIA planted stories there all the time. This is a quote from one of Transay's foreign leader grants publications. Switzerland is strategically placed in Europe, both geographically and ideologic…

▶ 38:09 activation. The AFL shared most of these motives in encouraging Tranget to play a lead role. At the same time, the Swiss tradition, somewhat of a myth, of being built on the principle of a collective contract and agreement on employment was…

▶ 39:44 This stance irritated his brother, who was responsible for publishing him in Switzerland. His brother owned the press. And this is a quote. Your articles stink too much like propaganda. This is his brother telling him that. And not enough l…
The Colonel’s Corner Transnational Anti-Communism #3
▶ 40:37 So he was so dripping with sucking up to the U.S. that his brother's going, dude, you're losing your mind here and you're going to lose your audience. He didn't seem at all concerned. His response was, if the propaganda is done well, my lec…
The Colonel’s Corner Transnational Anti-Communism #3
▶ 41:10 A book that he wrote was never produced, but he was paid for it. That's probably a form of money laundering. Politically, Tromsé admired the functioning and the political punch of the American unions. He subscribed completely to the idea th…
The Colonel’s Corner Transnational Anti-Communism #3
▶ 41:43 Here's something that he said to his audience in a speech. In the USA, I learned much about your research services, the education of workers, the theories of productivity. Since my return, therefore, I pay particular attention to these issu…

The Colonel’s Corner Transnational Anti-Communism #3
▶ 42:44 Another speech that he gave said this. The fact remains that the social conditions such as they exist in the U.S. are the best and the most equitable known in the world. In the U.S., we did not only see the oft-repeated demonstration of ind…

The Colonel’s Corner Transnational Anti-Communism #3
▶ 44:18 He was an informed and crafty man who was, he could not have been, as a result, he could not have been duped into playing a game. He was pulled into a soft power machinery of America and the CIA. It goes on to say that Transay's actions did…
