Transcript

0:04 okay welcome to thursday's edition of our book review on the medusa files we're on part four of the book and i posted these um you know how books will have like little sayings at the beginning of chapters or the beginning of different parts of the book um there's three

0:31 here as we transition that I think is important to read to kind of set the story for the next part of the book. The first one is from Richard Bissell, who was the Deputy Director of Plans, which is basically the covert operations area of the CIA.

0:53 Quote, the underdeveloped world presents greater opportunities for covert intelligence collection simply because governments are much less highly oriented. There is less security consciousness and there is apt to be more actual or potential diffusion of power among parties, localities, organizations, and individuals outside the central government, unquote.

1:23 That's how they exploit countries. The underdeveloped. They're sitting ducks for the CIA. The second quote is from the Zambian government concerning CIA activities in Africa in general. Quote, the most obscene haste with which the West has rushed into poor arms into Zaire reinforces

1:53 The argument of many Africans that behind every attempted or successful coup on this continent is the hand of a foreign power, unquote, which of course is very accurate, especially Zaire, which was actually the Congo and only became named Zaire after we overthrew the government. The last one is from the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. Quote, certain.

2:25 covert operations have been incompatible with American principles and ideology and when exposed have resulted in damaging this nation's ability to exercise moral and ethical leadership because there was no moral or ethical leadership when the covert operations were authorized.

2:53 And I find that very interesting that the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence made that statement and then did absolutely nothing about any of the covert operations or the people that conducted them, like ever. So chapter 20 starts as, and this is, we're gonna kind of brush through these because these are topics that we have went over.

3:23 many, many times. But for new people, I do want to highlight it so we stay with the flow of the book. This particular chapter is talking about areas between 1951 and 78 and how business was conducted. He says, often it is exactly that, business, American interest.

3:56 went far beyond world politics and national security. In too many instances, the coups or covert military actions, quote unquote, popular revolutions and assassinations conducted under the guise of national security had literally nothing to do with national security, but corporate interest, which is a point we make almost daily. To the average American, 40 years following the World War II were very confusing.

4:27 The media spoke of countries few people had ever heard of, less understood the significance or national security aspects of any of them. There were bombings and kidnappings and murders on an ever increasing scale. Most people paid little attention to these events because they occurred in remote countries halfway around the world. They bore little impact.

4:58 on the United States, or so they thought. What the American public didn't realize was to what extent the U.S. government and their clandestine services participated in these bloody events. And the first one he talks about is Iran between 1951 and 53. And of course, 53 is the U.S. coup. Because those...

5:30 Those events happened in the middle of the Korean War, which is mind-blowing if you think about it. Why in the world would we be overthrowing Iran in the middle of the Korean War? By basically the same means, because we now know, and he doesn't mention, that the reason why it included 1951 to 1953 is because in 1951 is when we started setting up

5:57 all of the stay-behind units in the southern part of Iran, capitalizing on the disconnect between the tribal area in the south and the industrial area in the north, which again is a common theme. We go in and co-opt the people that are already disenfranchised with the government and use them as pawns. And of course, we're talking about the attack and coup.

6:27 on Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh to reinstall the Shah Pahlavi, all on behalf of the British Petroleum, British Anglo-Iranian Oil Company. And the cut that the U.S. got somehow ended up in Standard Oil's portfolio.

6:59 Because the deal that was set up with the CIA in order for them to do what the UK's attempted coup could not pull off ended up with a cut of Standard Oil getting like 34% of the concession to the British Iranian oil company. The coup that we paid for

7:30 with U.S. dollars, profited Standard Oil. Not America, not Americans, Standard Oil. And he has some, just in case you're following along in the book, he thinks that there was not as much nefariousness going on during those events as we now know to be true.

8:03 because we did our own independent research on that. He does mention the Standard Oil piece of it and the fact that John Foster Dulles and Alan Dulles, who had formerly been Sullivan and Cromwell attorneys and had Standard Oil as a customer, was the ones that orchestrated the coup. He also does mention

8:31 that the person that they selected to orchestrate that was Kermit Roosevelt, grandson of Teddy Roosevelt, who oversaw the creation of the beginnings of the American empire with the things that were done much earlier in the early 1900s with the Spanish-American War and all of those other things.

9:02 That part shouldn't surprise anyone. He talks about the coup being planned for August of 1953 and the fact that the Shah, being the chicken shit that he is, as soon as things appeared to not be going in the coup's favor, he fled, first going to Iraq and then on to Rome, Italy, weirdly enough. So much goes on in Rome, Italy.

9:33 And that when he gets to Rome, Italy, it just so happens that Alan Dulles is checking into the same hotel and meets the Shah in the lobby, as if we're supposed to believe that that was a coincidence. It also talks about within a year, American oil company Standard Oil had received a 25-year contract to be a partner with...

10:03 what eventually turns into BP. And it also says that American arms manufacturer and aerospace corporations flooded to the country to equip and train the Shah's armed forces and the CIA set up the notorious Shah's secret police for them, which we do in every country that we overthrow. In Iran, it was named the Savak. Over the next 20 years, the Shah proved to be a very valuable,

10:36 asset creating listening posts so we could spy on all of the northern area which included the Soviet Union and all of the military industrial complex breaks in big bucks because we basically created their military which then of course we know the Ayatollah took over and just reverse engineered all of the equipment that we had already given Iran.

11:06 they not only took over that equipment, but then reverse engineered it to include missiles that we later sold to it in the 1980s. And that's the menace that we are now faced with. So yes, all of these coups long-term have what most authors refer to as blowback on the American people because it creates enemies. And if you wanna know why I ran.

11:36 screams death to America because Iranians inherently know exactly what Americans, i.e. the CIA, which they don't understand the difference in the fact that those bastards don't actually work for us, has done to their countries. They created secret police. They gave them weapons. They gave them torture devices through, yes, USAID. They helped them build black site prisons.

12:04 So that anybody that rose up against the Shah and his menacing evilness was tortured, kidnapped, killed. And they associate that with us, right or wrong? Because ultimately the CIA is on the U.S. taxpayer payroll. And we didn't do anything to hold our government accountable every time we found out.

12:35 that they were doing these things. So he goes on to talk about the CIA's activities, which again, we've covered quite a bit. How they used millions, hundreds of millions of dollars in quote unquote black budget, all of which was appropriated by the Congress. And the Congress knows all about this. I mean, they held hearings in 1970s.

13:09 and exposed all of this and then continued to fund it. He briefly mentions how things changed in the Carter administration as far as not funding these operations and getting rid of a bunch of the covert operators. But he doesn't mention the fact that even though it was technically unfunded off of taxpayer dollars, the CIA nonetheless set up their own apparatus outside

13:45 using those drug black market weapons deals profits to continue the operation outside of the CIA. He says it was during that time that three key players in the CIA's activities in Laos, Vietnam, again surfaced in 1975 after the fall of Saigon, William Colby.

14:13 reassigned Theodore Shackley back to DC and promoted him to be the associate director of the DO shop, which again is the dirty tricks area. That was a major promotion and put him in charge of the covert action staff, special operations, counterintelligence staff, counterterrorism, and ironically, counter narcotics.

14:42 So the guy that set up the narcotics is in charge of counter narcotics. And by counter, we mean narcotics. And of course, Thomas Klein is not far behind. They're actually like evil twins. Another guy that we have talked about throughout this series is, he shows up again, Edwin Wilson, who was a former CIA agent who had worked for Klein's.

15:18 and had been operating in Iran since 1975. He was an agent of a super secret naval intelligence task force called Task Force 157. We've also talked about that. I've posted a whole bunch of different threads about it on X. Clines arranged Wilson's transfer in 1971.

15:43 and reestablished contact with Wilson and began utilizing his talents on behalf of the CIA's efforts to prop up the Shah's regime. Wilson's specialty was establishing proprietary companies to act in clandestine operations. And he was really good at it. He ended up in jail because he was so good at it that...

16:08 He had one of the most profitable companies the CIA had ever fronted. And Ted Shackley and Thomas Klein wanted control of it. And Edwin Wilson wouldn't relinquish control. So they just had him arrested and thrown in jail for a very long time. Accused him of all the shit they were doing because he was doing it for them. So they knew exactly what to charge him with. You have to be very careful about the people that you hang out with.

16:38 because these people turn on you on a dime. He had already set up fronts like the World Marine Inc. and Maryland Maritime and Consultants International. Under Klein's direction, he would become a quote-unquote advisor to the Savak and act as a double agent to keep Klein and Shackley advised of exactly what the Savak was up to. Like they didn't know, they had their own agents over there.

17:11 It was actually the Savak who controlled the Shah. The Shah was basically a figurehead. Whoever controlled the Savak controlled Iran, not unlike the IRGC functions today, which is really weird because in our research, apparently the IRGC and their lower ranks, other than them shooting a few of the top Savak in order to make it look like there was actually a regime change.

17:41 They left that entity basically in its current form. They just changed the name, which again is another CIA tactic or MI6 tactic. Just change the name. Get out a few of the leadership, whether you kill them, jail them, or whatever, and pretend like it's a whole new organization, when in fact it functions in exactly the same way. Wilson would not be operating out of Iran by himself, none other than...

18:12 Brigadier General Richard Secord shows up and he's sent to Iran as chief of U.S. Air Force Military Assistance Advisory Group, AMAG. As such, he's positioned for U.S. contractors in the cell of arms to the Shah. He was also responsible for training Iranian military personnel in the use of the new equipment.

18:45 Marbog, who had served as Nixon's Operation 40 covert operation advisor, meaning the one against Cuba, was sent to the Department of Defense to monitor all U.S. contracts inside the country of Iran. The old crew from Castro to Vietnam is now all back in business with Iran.

19:15 Wilson's ties to Secord, von Marbog, Klein's, and Shackley, they began pressing Wilson to increase the flow of arms and equipment to Iran. Wilson was only too happy to comply with all of his front companies. Some of the equipment the Savak purchased through Wilson was electronic surveillance and location systems, like navigational systems.

19:44 By using such equipment, the Savak was able to home in on clandestine radio transmitters and broadcast and anti-Shah messages and subsequently not only close them down, but arrest the people doing them because you're not allowed to be a dissident in your own country. The CIA will find you and help their CIA National Police Force arrest you, torture you.

20:13 and in some cases, disappear you. In one instance that was reported to Wilson, nine such dissidents after having been apprehended, handcuffed and shoved to their knees were shot, execution style. Wilson passed all of this information up the chain. It changed nothing. That was the plan. In 76,

20:45 Carter's new head of naval intelligence, Admiral Bobby Ray Inman, disbanded Task Force 157 and removed his personnel from Iran. Wilson chose to remain in the country as a quote-unquote civilian, however, and continued to do exactly what he had been doing for the CIA. According to Wilson, who is now serving a prison sentence because they wanted his company.

21:13 The Sabah began providing him with a list of names of anti-Shah activists that needed to be eliminated because this is a consistent theme of all of these countries. It isn't really the country that does it. They do it in cooperation with the CIA, but they always have a hit list. Sometimes the CIA gives them one. Wilson would then pass this list along to Shackley through Rafael Quintero, a Cuban exile CIA operative.

21:46 That was from the Miami station and again follows this whole group around. The anti-Shah dissidents were later found executed by hired assassins, the hitmen that had been trained by these same people. In August of 76, Shackley recruited an Iranian head of Stanford Technology Corporation, Albert Hakim, H-A-K-I-M.

22:16 to play a pivotal part in the Shah's purchase of American technology. Hakim had major contacts with Iranian military and the Savak and could further arm cells and obtain lucrative contracts. Shortly after taking the job, he was introduced by Wilson to Sukhort, who, along with von Marbog, succeeded in having Hakim's contacts to sell Iranian

22:44 $5.5 million worth of electronic monitoring equipment built by Rockwell International and $7.5 million worth of telephone monitoring equipment, eavesdropping equipment. This last deal was cut by bribing General Mohammad Khatimi, commander of the Iranian Air Force and an associate of Hakim's. The last...

23:13 That last month, three top managers for Rockwell IBEX projects were murdered. Three top managers. William Cottrell, Donald Smith, and Robert Crongard.

23:39 All involved with IBEX surveillance equipment projects being set up with the Savak were assassinated in a road ambush. And we've talked about Krongard a lot. He liked to set up fake companies too. He was a CIA guy pretending to be a banker, investment guy. The former IBEX director of security, Gene Wheaton, investigated the murders for 10 years.

24:14 His conclusion was that the trio had been eliminated because they had discovered profit skimming going on, which again is exactly what the CIA does. They go in and they set these fake companies up. They get all of these military contracts and then they skim money off the top of all of them. Secord, Clines, Hakeem, Shackley, and Quintero were linked up to the assassinations. The only people

24:48 eventually accused of the murder were two Iranians who were killed during a shootout with the Iranian police when they came to arrest them. Doesn't that sound familiar? Like having hitmen kill your targets and then in the arrest of someone, you kill that someone. Oh gosh, dang, doesn't that sound like JFK's assassinate? Yes, yes it does.

25:18 It sounds like so many of these assassinations because then you don't, like having MS-13 kill the guy, what's his name? It just escaped me. The guy that was killed that worked for the DNC that took all of the things. So you have MS-13 assassinate him and then someone comes in and assassinates the two MS-13 guys that supposedly assassinated the DNC worker.

25:49 Yeah, they do this all the time. And once you understand that model of how they do it, then you see this repeatedly. You guys tell me what his name is. Where's my meager Sarge guy? Shot Seth Rich. Thank you, Tara. As with all of these business dealings, the political problems within the country were being neglected by the CIA.

26:22 the growing discontent, which then results in the revolution. That's what happened in Venezuela. Although with an election of Chavez, it's what happened when Castro's revolution took hold in Cuba because people inherently don't want corrupt governments regardless of who installed them.

26:51 So all of the business dealings that were transpiring and the political problems within the country goes unnoticed. Instead of attempting to win the hearts and minds of people, they ignore them, the discontent brews, and then you get some type of revolution, which you attempt to control as well. One former CIA intelligence analyst, Jesse Leaf, recalled that the Savak established,

27:23 Special facilities where cells contained some of the most horrible torture devices ever devised. Black site prisons, again, a reoccurring pattern. The one method of torture that I saw reported were hot tables where metallic tables hooked up to electricity and the people would put the juice through it and it would burn parts of their back or whatever was laying on the table.

27:52 We saw that in Operation Condor as well. And the generators are provided by USAID contracts. They also would put boiling water up people's private parts, heavy weights on genitals, beating with wire ropes, nail pullings, teeth pullings, and so on.

28:23 This is what a CIA analyst reported as torture. Not waterboarding, real torture. If Savak wanted to torture someone who was anti-Shaw or who was ultimately detrimental to their interest, well, fine, go ahead and let them do it. That was the agency's official position because they, in fact, had helped them.

28:57 with all of the acquisition of all of those methods and had a torture manual to train them how to do it. Thank you, Office of Public Safety. This attitude plus the lack of human intelligence being developed from inside of Iran, which is bullshit. They had all of the human intelligence they needed inside because they basically owned the Sabak, the military and everything else and we were training them.

29:31 That's why when you write these books and you don't understand Operation Gladio, you say stupid things like that. Then his assertion is that because of lack of human intelligence, we didn't see the revolution coming. That's horseshit. Not only in the case of Cuba, did we see the revolution coming? We had agents up in the hills training the Castro brothers and Che Cabrera.

30:02 on how to do it because we wanted to co-op that too. And that in fact happened in, they knew exactly who they were gonna bring back in the country because the French intelligence had been monitoring the Ayatollah the entire time he was there. This was not a surprise to anybody. Okay, and again, you're still gonna have to convince me how a bunch of students overwhelmed the Marines.

30:37 Because I don't buy it. And a whole bunch of hardened CIA agents in the embassy still ain't buying it. Okay. Then he goes on, obviously, to talk about what he refers to as the Banana War, which is Guatemala in 1954, the following year. Again, he has a very naive way of presenting all of the information. I'm not going to go through that. We've went through Guatemala repeatedly.

31:09 because it looks like every other overthrow of a government that we've referred to. But just as a reminder, you had President Arbenz, who had been elected by the Democratic method, but he tried to make United Fruit allow unions and pay a decent wage to the banana farmers, and that they had accumulated a vast swath of the property.

31:39 of Guatemala that they were not farming. They were only farming like less than 20% of what they quote unquote owned and had undervalued it. So they were paying the government almost no taxes for it. And Arbenz wanted that changed. He wanted the local farmers to be able to farm Guatemalan land. Imagine that, that United Fruit.

32:06 was just leaving lay there so they didn't have any competition. And Arbenz said, yeah, that's not going to happen. We want to buy that land back and we will give you the value of what you...

32:18 and have paid taxes on for years of the entire swath of land, which was a million dollars. And United Fruit just picked up their old lawyer's phone, Alan Dulles and John Foster Dulles, and said, hey, get your boys down here, which is exactly what they did. And overthrew the government and installed another military dictator that they had chosen, which was Armas, A-R-M-A-S.

32:48 Of course, then they train the new military national police force and they just replicate the thing that they just set up in Iran, in Guatemala. And then they will use Guatemala as a landing pad for all of the operations in that area to overthrow all the other governments that the U.S. oligarchs decide they want to exploit.

33:20 He goes in and talks about how the CIA was involved in all of that. We know all of that. The next chapter is Cuba, assassins and the Bay of Pigs. And of course, we know all about that. We're not going to go through that as well. But there are just a couple of things that I want to point out. He does realize that the Traficani mafia played a role in that.

33:51 and that Colonel J.C. King, who we know was sheep-dipped CIA guy pretending to be a military person and worked primarily for the CIA his whole career, and the involvement of Vice President Richard Nixon in that whole setup leading up to the planning for the Bay of Pigs.

34:17 Because obviously there was a lot of U.S. interests in Cuba as well. United Fruit, again, was in Cuba. William Pauly, we know, owned sugar plantations along with United Fruit. And that he owned an airline, the airline there. And the bus transportation system there. He's just one of many U.S. millionaires that had financial interest. And we know about ZR Rifle.

34:46 with all of those same people. Rafael Quintero, the Posada guy, Felix Rodriguez again, Frank Sturgis, all of those show up. And this is the Operation 40 team that we mentioned a little bit earlier, E. Howard Hunt, blah, blah, blah.

35:11 And that basically the entire plan had been set up and given the go-ahead before Kennedy took office. And so then he was presented with a fait accompli when he came into office. And of course, that was the intent. If he chose not to exercise and go on with that pre-approved plan,

35:39 then he would look soft on communism. It was a setup. And they rushed to get that plan put together so they could present it to Kennedy as a fait accompli. And as we've talked many times throughout this entire thing, it was a shitty plan from the beginning. The plan was exposed the very first day it started with the first airwave because they did not disguise the...

36:08 CIA planes that they tried to pass off as Cuban airplanes defecting. And it was reported within the first few hours of the landing of that plane in Miami by the one guy saying, yeah, I just fled Cuba when he'd been training in Guatemala for technically Nicaragua for months on how to even fly the airplane. And one of the reporters said,

36:37 yeah, hey, that's not a Cuban airplane. That's the wrong model. And that's never reported by anybody that talks about the Bay of Pigs failure. No one ever mentions that. It was outed the first day. So of course, Kennedy was not going to authorize a second wave of air support or air bombings or whatever because it was already exposed. That little piece of information is always left out. And it was ran.

37:08 in all the newspapers. I do like the fact that he did catch the part about the mafia piece of them being recruited and that FBI former, quote unquote, former FBI agent, Robert Mayhew, although he's misspelled his name, was involved and met in Las Vegas with Johnny Roselli, who later shows up chopped up.

37:38 in a 50-gallon barrel just prior to the reinvestigation of the assassination of JFK. Because between Robert Mayhew and Johnny Roselli, there was a lot of hit jobs that were paid for by the CIA inside the United States to be carried out by the mafia.

38:05 And Roselli was one of their guys that worked directly with Robert Mayhew, who worked on behalf of the CIA to contract out those killings. Of course, Sam Giacana was involved in that as well. And it does say that the...

38:35 Roselli agreed to help for a fee of $150,000 and contacted Chicago Mafia boss, Sam Giacana, who made arrangements to have a poison pill to be able to kill Castro. That Richard Bissell was involved in a lot of the different outrageous things.

39:05 that they had spent millions and millions of dollars setting up that Brigade 2506, which is where we found Felix Rodriguez, where he was proudly wearing his Brigade 2506 shirt when Tucker Carlson interviewed him. It mentions that the same players behind the Guatemala operation were involved in the Bay of Pigs.

39:33 It was those particular people was Operation Zapata, which is really interesting because Zapata Oil is the name of George Bush's oil company. And Zapata Bay in Cuba is where all of that oil was supposed to be residing that they were trying to get in, but couldn't do it with Castro in charge to exploit the oil.

40:02 in Cuba. And then it's even weirder when you find out George DeMorgan Shield was part of setting up a Venezuelan Cuban oil company with a completely different name that once they couldn't get Cuba back, went bankrupt. And it had actually been selling like hotcakes on the New York Stock Exchange. Again, it's all about big business.

40:33 All about big business. Okay. He does mention about the U-2 and he got the piece of Oswald being in Russia during the U-2 shoot down and the fact that he used to work on the U-2 radar capability. So good on him for doing it.

41:10 He does bring up Grayston Lynch, who was a quote unquote CIA advisor that was in charge of the Brigade 2506 and him going ashore when Kennedy specifically forbid anybody that was an American to be on the shore for plausible deniability.

41:36 Again, the CIA doesn't work for the president. They pay no attention to him. And then he goes into a whole bunch of detail about the actual operation and the aftermath of that. And that pretty much gets us through the Cuba chapter. And then, of course, we go on to talk about the next assassination.

42:08 which was, he calls Africa murder on the dark continent in chapter 23. And of course, that's about Patrice Lumumba and the installation of a tyrant after they assassinate Patrice Lumumba. He does mention Lawrence Devlin, the CIA guy who later goes on. He's actually buried in the Congo, which again, I think is totally weird.

42:39 He basically orchestrates the overthrow in conjunction with a whole large team from NATO to include a couple of Nazis. Otto Skorzeny even made a trip down there to create the fake civil war with Katanga, that whole thing. And then they bring Lumumba after he's kidnapped by these forces to Katanga, assassinate him.

43:05 and then dissolve his body in acid. He then moves on to Angola. We've spent a lot of time on Angola. It was a former Portuguese colony that the CIA got in the middle of, backing the wrong corrupt people again, and lost that civil war. And again, keep in mind, these are,

43:38 basically, whether it's Katanga and Congo, which they set up as a separate country, and then immediately recognized so that they could get out of this paradigm of fighting a civil war, which is what they were doing in Korea, because that's not allowed. Not that they follow any rules at all. But you can't in any way, shape, or form not argue that Angola was definitely a civil war.

44:07 And they had a corrupt leadership and they had one that was at least less corrupt. I'm not going to say they weren't any corruption, but they were all very well educated and capable of running a country where the corrupt guys were not. And there's no justification for spending the hundreds of millions of dollars we did in arming the corrupt elements of it, but we did.

44:35 And trafficking arms through Israel into South Africa and then into Angola. So again, hope you're seeing the pattern here. He then moves on to chapter 24, South America. With the title of that chapter, the beat goes on. Because again, it does. And by this time, we're up to 1964. We're in Brazil.

45:06 And he talks about the fact that we were in Brazil, we were in Bolivia in 1967, we were in Uruguay killing all the Tupomaros, which were the resistant fighters or the nationalists from 1968 to 73. And then of course, overlapping that,

45:37 Because basically those same years we were in Chile, eventually overthrowing and murdering Salvador Allende. So you have all of those operations and that isn't even including Argentina and Paraguay and some of the other countries down there that we were operating in at the same time.

46:08 I do like this point that he starts out this chapter of South America. He says, solid relationships were established with these governments that the CIA installed and U.S. corporations began moving into the country. And I think he's specifically talking about Brazil on this one. This infiltration by U.S. businesses was assisted.

46:37 And I want you guys to understand this. We're gonna talk about this because I don't talk about this enough. The U.S. government provided a grant to U.S. corporations of $135 million, a grant, meaning we're not gonna get our money back, $135 million to do business. Now, why is that important?

47:09 What just happened in the U.S. Supreme Court? They agreed that these corporations could sue to get their investments from Cuba back. Now, what I would challenge everybody to do is go back and find out how many grants these companies got to go do business in Cuba.

47:42 So who should get the investment back? Because this happens in all of these countries. If Brazil gets taken over by a quote unquote hostile force, even though it's a democratically elected government and kicks out US corporations because they won't allow people to unionize and comply with local labor laws. This is what happened in Guatemala. It's what happened in Chile. Then in the case of Chile,

48:11 what happened with Salvador Allende is the mining companies, after he nationalized the mine, wanted to sue the Chilean government. And of course they win all of these suits. Warhamster and I have explained to you how that whole operation works because it's a rigged system. And they always find on behalf of the US or Western oligarchs that are exploiting the people in these rigged international.

48:41 court things that we only belong to when we want to and not when we don't want to. So if we're giving grants to these countries, to these companies to go down and put this infrastructure in the company, why isn't the American people at least given part ownership in these corporations that are going into these countries? We never are.

49:11 Ever. And then when they get kicked out because they're assholes, they get all of the, it's like they own 100% of the investment even though they didn't. And they get compensation through this court system and not the American people who are investment partners in the entire thing.

49:36 That's definitely something, Bridget, we need to make a note of and go back and see if any of these grants went into Cuba, because this is a rigged system. It's like us paying for the coup, which we did in Iran, and Standard Oil got the concession, not the American people. This happens over and over and over again. So in this particular case,

50:05 He does mention Pepsi-Cola, but listen to this. This is very interesting. There were two major U.S. businesses in Chile, ITT and Pepsi-Cola. There's actually three, the mining corporation. And it says that this guy, Eduardo Fri Montiva,

50:40 who was the Christian Democrat that ran against Salvador Allende. But ITT and Pepsi-Cola were not convinced that Free was going to do what they wanted him to either, but he was definitely the better of the two choices. And when Free began mentioning ideas of establishing profit sharing for employees,

51:10 like we do here in Chile, the two corporations decided that free would have to be replaced in the next election. So he's the guy that was the sitting president at the time that Salvador Allende was running for president the second time. And he, as the president of a sovereign country, says that he thinks that foreign corporations working

51:40 in his country should have profit sharing with the employees, which are his citizens, ITT and PepsiCo pick up the phone and says he needs to be replaced too. Yeah, I know we don't like Salvador Allende. He's a little farther down there, but we don't even like this guy, this elected president of Chile. We don't like him either. Making this decision and having the CIA carry it out.

52:11 was no problem for the two companies. ITT was now headed by, and I did not know this until I read this book. ITT was then headed by former CIA director, John McComb. What the hell? Pepsi-Cola was being ran by Donald Kendall. Who's Donald Kendall? Well, I'm glad you asked or that I asked. Richard Nixon's personal friend and former client.

52:45 when Nixon was working as a Wall Street lawyer for John Mitchell's law firm, who also represented Nelson Rockefeller. So those two people are directly tied to the administration that then goes in and overthrows the government. Because obviously, when we overthrow Salvador Allende,

53:17 Nixon is actually the president at that point. This is initially when we were just interfering in the election. And we interfered enough in the first run of Salvador Allende that he didn't get elected. The second time he ran, they didn't interfere enough and he actually did get elected. And everybody associated with it is part of this machine. That's freaking crazy.

53:54 Former CIA director, John McComb and Nixon's personal friend and former client. That's absolutely nuts. Okay, where are we at? We're almost done. Richard Nixon obviously gets inaugurated and then he talks about that.

54:25 Not only were they donating to his opponent's campaign, but there was a $700,000 amount that was passed to his campaign from the United States. And $350,000 came from ITT to his campaign in Chile.

54:58 Talk about foreign interference in an election. By 1970, ITT had paid the CIA an additional $1 million to assure Salvador Allende's defeat. This sum was later upped, of course, because we funded the operation under Nixon. That's just literally crazy.

55:26 And that gets us to part five and chapter 25, which we will do tomorrow. Okay, all along, go ahead. Hello, Colonel. Modest proposal. Why don't we just go ahead right now before the end of Cuba regime and just reimburse Jock Whitney and Nelson Rockefeller for the metal mine in Cuba with Jock's nickel mines.

55:57 that they shot through JFK's head. Why don't you save time and just reimburse them for that medal, using the CIA coup of 1963, because it's all going in, seems to be going in this same direction. And again, just to reiterate my kind of understanding of the big meta reason for...

56:20 The coup of 63 is just mining, you know, the tremendous changes that occurs in the international mining market, be it Congo, Cuba, Brazil, Indonesia. And I think that's a huge variable in, you know, the folks who oppose JFK. We've definitely proven that. Indonesia, all of those. Cuba, we have definitely proven that point.

56:48 in the research that we have done. There were many others, but I think mining definitely is at the top of the U.S. interest that we're opposed to JFK. Absolutely. Agree 100%. SR, go ahead. Thank you, Colonel. And thank everyone for attending here on YouTube and on Rumble and here on Spaces. The crowd keeps growing and I love it.

57:24 Here's what gets me. These people who tortured all of those people are no better, in my opinion, than those people who unleashed biological weapons on the public. Oh, it's just satanic evil on every level. Again, until we started doing this research, I would have never.

57:54 I mean, it's not like I don't know about World War II and I didn't know about Vietnam, but to know that this had been so prolific and that all of these people were protected and the level of torture that they were taught by Americans to perpetrate on their fellow citizens. And that's why it's...

58:21 It's mind-boggling to me now that people here in the United States, because we are so protected, have basically no grasp at how evil these people really are and what they're capable of doing. Granted, this is very evil. The whole thing about trying to convert little boys into little girls, all.

58:51 satanically evil. But if they understood all of the evilness that has come before that our government has hidden from them, that our government has been involved in, they would be able to put it in a better context. Because I think they think this is like some new thing. And that's like all of this other stuff.

59:21 These people have no context for what is happening right now. Oh, we found this one thing that's funding this one other thing and that's it. Yeah, but that one thing is part of this huge, big elephant and all you did was find the toenail or maybe the tusk. It's an entire elephant that you're not seeing. Very frustrating, very frustrating.

59:50 Even with that one thing, Colonel, to understand our government condones it is enough to say, wait a minute here. It's just got to stop. Well, it would stop if people were shot that were doing this. Just saying. Yeah. Rumble 9S. If it was a movie, they would say it's fiction. Not believable. I agree with you.

1:00:21 which is why I have to depend on all of you guys to spread this information out there because it is very unbelievable until you are able to see it happening over and over and over again. And once you see the patterns, it becomes not only believable, but predictable of where they're going next.

1:00:50 Yes, it is a mass psychosis. I agree with that comment over on Rumble. It is a mass psychosis that has been perpetrated on the world. 100%. Donnie Vision, vitamin B delivered at high speed does make a nation healthier. The truth.

1:01:20 delivered at high speed makes us much healthier too. Bridget, go ahead. You know, when I see a lot of the exposure that is happening, and like you said, they're exposing just the toenail. It reminds me of the anecdote where the three blind men all try to describe an elephant. One grabs a hold of the trunk, and he describes it as a big, it feels to him like a snake.

1:01:53 The other one grabs a hold of one of the legs, and he said, no, it's a tree. And the third one grabs a hold of the tail, and he said, no, it's a whip. They're all right in that they're all describing parts of a bigger whole, but they just don't see the whole elephant. The context missing is significant. Great, great analogy. Yeah.

1:02:24 When you said something about the toenail, it was like, yeah. They're all describing minutiae of the bigger picture, and hopefully, but it does seem that they are exposing it like a thousand-piece puzzle. Yeah. Yeah. All along, go ahead. Yeah, and to just analyze further into the means of exposing, the extremely faulty means of exposing.

1:02:57 It reminds me again of the PBS special of our great documentarian, Ken Burns, who, you know, the extreme twisted irony of his pretending to, you know, in his Vietnam special, have a, quote, grunt's eye view of the combat and the situation.

1:03:28 In the guise of that, where does he lie most of all? JFK's Vietnam policy. It's just, you know, so you have this like seemingly PBS, like, oh good, we're helping the working class, the ordinary. We're telling it like it is. Guys put on this completely CIA narrative. And as I probably mentioned before,

1:03:55 As Jim DiEudanio has shown over his, you know, consistently amazing Kennedy's and King.com site, it was, you know, Koch money, that huge amounts of Koch money funded that Ken Burns special. And, you know, and the Koch brothers, I guess there's only one of them alive now, but, you know, had a just long track record.

1:04:24 record of you know just consistently lying about jfk um but it's done even more sinisterly now in the sneaky way you know of ken burns and just again i i think that also on the topic of how this kind of consistent you know three men in the elephant failure of narration it's just

1:04:53 You know, you can't emphasize how important it is that, you know, the high schools, because of the common denominator, you know, it gets they have more and more to cover and they have less and less time to spend on key events like Vietnam in 1963. And so it's just it's designed to, you know, make narrative impossible. And the television shows that are would.

1:05:23 or should be compensating for that lack of education that the public gets on their tax dollars in the public schools are even worse. There's no compensation. So it's like, for me, it's especially frustrating because what I call like the period of 1945 to 1980, which I call the overtake lane, where the CIA just became autopilot.

1:05:52 It's just, that's become like flyover country, you know? And meanwhile, we get, you know, Obama and this guy with the, what is it? The turning point guy, the guy who writes massively, massively promoted non-fiction books that are really actually just propagandistic history flyovers, Malcolm Gladwell. So he-

1:06:20 He and Obama are doing this massively publicized, corporate media publicized effort on reconstruction right now, which, you know, is obviously a very important period in history. But it's a period in history that you can either get right or wrong. And there's big money in getting it wrong. There's always big money in getting it wrong. Yeah. And, you know, metaphorically, it's like, you know, we are meant, the big money in this country,

1:06:50 wants to keep us in Memphis 1866, which, you know, was a period of turmoil, typical of Reconstruction. And it's not like there were not people offering a better solution during Reconstruction, but they'll be completely ignored, right? And they're selling us Memphis in 1866 100% of the time with zero seconds given to Memphis in 1968.

1:07:17 Yep. That's like a recipe for, you know, the state's psychological warfare against the domestic population. It is. That is exactly what it is. Renee, go ahead. Hey, good afternoon, everyone. Yeah, just one cannot help but think of the bombardment. I mean, I guess each country.

1:07:44 with this twisted evil around the world and how we've all been experimented on or poisoned or tortured in all these dehumanized ways. I think, would you not agree that the United States, especially considering we have the Second Amendment, have been on such a slow drip via air, water and food, etc.

1:08:10 of all these chemicals and whatnot, as opposed to the methods they've used in other countries. I was trying to look into how many chemicals and preservatives and things we have in our food. And apparently, so far, I've just scratched the surface, but it looks like there's almost 10,000, 10,000 things that are allowed, you know, FDA approved.

1:08:34 that they're allowed to put in our food and everything. And that's just wild. It's upsetting and unbelievable what they do to other countries, but with how they get us from all these little angles in our everyday lives through just what we're eating and stuff. I saw you posted earlier about not...

1:09:03 sunburning much anymore. And I've actually experienced the same thing. I cut out the whole seed oils and stuff several years ago, trying to heal my knees and changing my whole diet around. And I don't sunburn. And I'm a fair, freckly girl. And it's amazing. And I'm like, my gosh, I never knew because I used to fry like a potato chip. And it's shocking that all this time to think, son of a bitches, they just put every...

1:09:32 They slow kill us with our food, basically. So Brian and Dwayne Cates were hermits. They'd never been in the sun in their entire, they grew up in Texas. Brian spent like eight years down in the Bahamas, never in the sun, ever. And as soon as they both moved to Florida and cleaned up their diet, because they have this bitch that bitches at them every time.

1:09:59 We go to dinner and they order something they're not allowed to eat. They're out in the sun all the time. Dwayne has a tan for the first time in his entire life. He's never had a tan in his life and didn't burn once. It's just, and they're very fair complected. It's very weird. I definitely think there's something there. Obviously, I'm not a doctor and not giving advice from that perspective.

1:10:30 But I'm just telling you what I've experienced. I can be out in the sun all day long and not burn. It's the weirdest thing. Same here. Same here. Yeah. And it's basically getting all of those chemicals. And I do. I've said that to people repeatedly. I feel like that the vegetable oil was to make us fry.

1:10:56 And being out in the sun with that in your system made you burn. I don't know what it is about it, but I have more than a few people that have followed me on this life change journey and the same is true for them. So very, very weird. So anyway, that's it for today. Thank you guys for being here.

1:11:26 As I said, we're moving through this book fairly quickly. We're on chapter 25. And probably within the next week, we'll be done with it. So, okay, you guys, I will see you tomorrow at noon with more hamster. And at four o'clock for our normal show, I will be on the round table with...

1:11:55 Lieutenant Colonel Steve and his band of merry veterans tonight at seven o'clock as well. So you want to check that out. Steve Murray's channel over on Rumble is where it goes to. So anyway, you guys, I enjoy being on that show. It's not as...

1:12:25 um fun just because I don't know them enough now to um I I eventually will obviously but um we will be doing the Tommy podcast um Saturday morning so sometime Saturday afternoon that will be up as well so anyway that's that you guys have a nice evening and I'll hopefully see you guys tomorrow at noon take care everybody
