September 30, 2010 -- The Israeli "art students" from MOSSAD are back and they are spying...

http://www.progressiveconvergence.com/nuclearfalseflagmail.htm


Israeli "art student" spies brazenly conduct spying operations in Utah neighborhoods. Not a peep from the FBI, which is too busy violating the First Amendment rights of anti-war activists around the country....in USA and Worldwide.....

Israeli students selling fake Israeli art door-to-door were seen as an intelligence threat by at least half a dozen federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies in the months leading up to the glaring inside Job of 9/11 attacks. A single report from the Channel 4 ABC television affiliate in Salt Lake City about Israeli "art students" going door-to-door in northern Utah and asking residents about the new National Security Agency mega-data center at Camp Williams should put to rest patent Israeli government claptrap that the "students" are merely youthful Israeli Defense Force veterans traveling abroad and selling art to pay their expenses. In 2002, Anti-Defamation League director Abe Foxman, who, himself, should be subjected to a national security investigation for being an Israeli agent, laughed off the Israeli art student story. Foxman told the Associated Press, "It's become almost a tradition that once you finish military service you take a world tour, and then you face life for real."

In fact, it has become a tradition in the United States for Israelis to visit homes and offices, ask suspicious questions, and not face any federal investigation for espionage lest the "anti-Semitism" histrionics of Jewish-American agents of influence like Foxman results in abbreviated careers of FBI and other federal law enforcement officials who decide to launch a full counter-intelligence investigation....

The Bush and Obama administrations have been complicit in allowing unfettered Israeli espionage activities, such as door-to-door art sales, furniture movers, foreign exchange student placement, magazine subscription sales, real estate "contracting," as well as Israeli shopping mall kiosk vending, to proceed without even a whimper from the FBI or Department of Homeland Security....because it's obvious for people in the Know....that the Siamese Twins CIA/MOSSAD, AMAN/DIA have become inseparable since 1995....and the advent of the PNAC killers....They have created a BOND and spy for each other's interests blatantly in BOTH countries to evade certain laws and control the cumbersome congress....who keeps demanding more access to Covert Operations Information.....

In 2000 and 2001, the Drug Enforcement Administration cited Israeli "art students" visiting the homes of DEA agents in Los Angeles, Phoenix, Chicago, Atlanta, New Orleans, Miami, and other cities. This editor revealed new details of the Israeli espionage story in the February 28, 2002 edition of Paris-based "Intelligence Online": Intelligence Online has managed to establish that a huge Israeli spy ring operating in the United States was rolled up by the Justice Department's counter-espionage service. Up to now the U.S. authorities have caught and expelled nearly 120 Israeli nationals involved in the case that hasn't yet been made public. Intelligence Online has obtained the copy of a classified, 61-page report drafted by a task force specifically set up for the affair, and which is still heading inquiries. The task force in question is made up primarily of agents from the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) and the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), with the FBI and also the U.S. Air Force's investigation unit lending a hand. The report essentially sums up the results of questions put to suspects between January and May of last year and describes inquiries that have already been completed, primarily in Florida, Texas and California. The DEA has played a central part in the counter-espionage operation because it was the agency's in-house security service, Office of Security Programs, that first detected the unusual behavior of young Israeli nationals who had gained access to DEA circles. On Feb. 25 the DEA's public affairs bureau confirmed that the report we obtained was authentic. The Israelis involved in the case are between 22 and 30 and had recently carried out their national service in Israeli army intelligence units. In the U.S. they claimed to be graphic arts students and made contact with officials from several government departments by selling artworks. A few of the operatives are well known in the Israeli intelligence community.....

The report cited the names of Peer Segalovitz (military registration number 5087989) and Aran Ofek, son of a renowned two-star general in the Israeli army. The network targeted some of the most sensitive sites in the U.S., such as Tanker Air Force Base near Oklahoma City. Indeed, the U.S. Air Force's Office of Special Investigation sent a letter to the Justice Department on May 16 of last year to ask for assistance in a case against four Israelis suspected of spying: Yaron Ohana, Ronen Kalfon, Zeev Cohen and Naor Topaz. In addition the "art students" cultivated contacts with Israeli information technology companies based in the US and serving as regular suppliers to various U.S. federal agencies, such as Amdocs, Nice or Retalix. For instance, Marine Glikman, an Israeli intelligence officer, was a programmer at Retalix Raanana. The network counted around 20 units composed of between four and eight members a piece. Each was under the orders of a local chief who planned and dovetailed operations. The team in Irving, Texas, answered to Michael Calmanovic, who was arrested last April 4 while at Hollywood, Florida was run by Hanan Serfaty. The Miami operation was headed by Legum Yochai. Over the past 12 months some details of the counter-espionage operation leaked out from the departments most concerned by the case. In March, 2001, the National Counterintelligence Center (NCIC) warned in a report that 'in the past six weeks, employees in federal office buildings have reported suspicious activities concerning individuals representing themselves as foreign students selling artwork.' For six months some officials had hoped the case would end up in court but the Bush administration appeared intent on hushing it up..... Out of frustration some officials quietly conveyed information to the media. In December, reporter Carl Cameron filmed a four-part series for Fox News on former Israeli spy operations against the U.S. and on a number of cases involving high tech equipment."

On March 8, 2002, The Albuquerque Journal, in an editorial, wrote: "When U.S. authorities suspect an organized team of spies is seeking to infiltrate sensitive federal office buildings and the homes of government employees, they should arrest and interrogate to get to the bottom of the plot. Instead, a draft report from the Drug Enforcement Administration reports that young Israelis posing as art students but suspected of espionage activities were merely deported. DEA first said the youths' actions 'may well be an organized intelligence-gathering activity.' But immigration officials deported the suspicious Israelis, said to number in the dozens, for visa violations. Perhaps the officials had forgotten the case of Jonathan Pollard, a civilian Navy intelligence officer who gave classified information to the Israelis. It was an operation that Israel eventually acknowledged was known and approved of in the highest reaches of the Israeli government. Pollard has served some 13 years of a life sentence. The recent arrests were made in a number of major U.S. cities from California to Florida, amid public warnings from U.S. intelligence agencies about suspicious behavior by people posing as Israeli art students and 'attempting to bypass facility security and enter federal buildings.' The United States owes no duty to Israel to ignore spying. Israel, it could be argued, should at least be grateful enough to the United States that it should be reluctant to try to steal secrets. But, the first step is finding out."

If such activity was being carried out by nationals of Iran, Lebanon, Russia, or China, the stories about "terrorism" and "spying" would be blasted forth by neocon media outlets like Fox News, CNN, and the other usual suspects. There have also been reports of similar Israeli door-to-door and mall kiosk espionage activity in Australia, Lebanon, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Denmark.....

On August 6, 2004, The Calgary Herald reported, "As many as 15 Israelis in Calgary are being linked to a door-to-door art scam that has for years puzzled authorities on both sides of U.S.-Canada border and raised the specter of international espionage. At least two of the foreigners were detained in Calgary and today will face the Immigration and Refugee Board. The board will determine whether they will be deported and banned from the country. Guy Grinberg and Jacky Yakov Sr., believed to be in their 30s, are accused of working illegally in Canada. The two were picked up Wednesday at a southeast car rental agency. They were allegedly peddling fake artwork at inflated prices. Their arrest was followed by the roundup of more than a dozen other Israelis, who were questioned by authorities and then released. Their passports were seized. This is the third time in a year immigration agents in Calgary have detained Israelis posing as art students. Similar incidents have unfolded in Saskatoon, Toronto and Ottawa during the same period. But what exactly the supposed students are doing here remains a mystery, one that has intrigued law enforcement and intelligence agencies across Canada and the United States.'I would assume that whether it's innocent or otherwise, it's the sort of thing that security agencies in both countries would or should be at least looking into,' Canada's former top spy, Reid Morden, said Thursday from New York . . . Members of Calgary's Jewish community were not surprised to learn of the scam....."

ABC Channel 4 reported that Northern Utah County residents were actually alerted to the espionage activities of the Israeli "art students" in church bulletins sent out by Mormon churches in the area. Referring to the Israelis, one church bulletin stated: "Part of their mission here is to gain information on the new NSA installation coming to our area....."

The Israeli "art student" spying activities in towns like Eagle Mountain and Saratoga Springs comes a few weeks after WMR reported on similar activity being directed at the homes of Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officials' homes in Brea, California. WMR also reported on Israeli door-to-door "contractors" and "foreign exchange placement" casing homes in Gwinnett County, near Atlanta, Georgia.

In a replay of local law enforcement being alerted to the suspicious activities of Israeli art students and movers around the time of the inside Job of 9/11 attacks only to be dissuaded from action by federal authorities, the Saratoga Springs police found themselves faced with the same incredible indifference. Saratoga Springs police officer Matt Schauerhamer was reported by Channel 4 to have confronted some of the Israeli art students at a restaurant. Schauerhamer told the TV station, "I told them, 'If you're actually an artist, why don't you draw something?' I gave them a piece of paper and gave them my pen. They produced a picture that was about on par with what my kindergartner could have done."

The Utah Department of Homeland Security told Channel 4 News that it was unaware of the Israeli activity and the FBI had no comment. WMR investigated the Israeli art student and mover activity around the time of the inside Job of 9/11 and was told by a Justice Department source that the department and the FBI ordered no action be taken by the FBI or federal prosecutors against the Israeli spies. In 2000 and 2001, the Israelis were quietly deported back to Israel. In the case of the Israelis in Utah, they were merely cited for not having a Saratoga Springs business license......So obvious that the work is coordinated with CIA/DIA all along.....exactly as it was done on the odious day of the ultimate inside Job 9/11....

Jews and Israel....
Israel is a monstrous country but is not the ultimate evildoer, it is a dangerous terror tool in the hands of the evildoers.... - who are again Illuminati - Rothschilds for sure in the case of Israel.... They created it and paid for the damn thing and they control Israel....

No point in hating the misguided average-Joe garden variety Jews who all fall for the Zionist hype - it is their leadership which found ways to capitalize on their collective Holocaust persecution angst and turn it into fanaticism and the need to victimize someone the way they once were victimized themselves - their puppet masters know how to tug at the fear strings....


Relativity... ,

The extent of the spying and the damage done, and in case of the USS Liberty, the violence against a nominal ally, are then factors that come into play. That and utter dishonesty in inter-'allied' communications. It is hard to retain mutual trust when you repeatedly catch someone lying in your face.

It is hard to maintain that you are actually a US ally when your nation killed 34 and wounded 171 'allied' sailors, deliberately - in an attempt to kill them all and sink their ship.

It is equally hard to maintain that you are actually a US ally when your nation sells out crown jewel information to an arch enemy of the US, crippling US intelligence collection against said arch enemy, with whom the US is in a half decade global thermonuclear stand off. All that while taking US financial and military support (for granted, more, regarding it as a right and entitlement).

Or those instances of the Israelis reverse engineering and/or selling to China or Russia US technology....

An alliance is characterized by reciprocity. Pursuit of some common goal, accompanied by otherwise total disregard for US interests while taking US arms and money (sucker!) is simply being parasitic.

Mutual spying aside, when in the end the 'ally' side of the balance sheet is in the deep red, the question arises whether that 'ally' is more trouble than he is worth, indeed, if he is a liability. It is a legitimate question that needs to be answered soberly....

U.S. supplied Afghan insurgents for "Al Qaeda" in Iraq

http://www.veteranstoday.com/2010/09/30/gordon-duff-the-macro-economics-of-phony-terror-and-contrived-conflict/

U.S. supplied Afghan insurgents for "Al-CIAda" in Iraq....

WMR has learned from an intelligence source who served in 2007 at the Tallil Air Base in Iraq, also known as Camp Adder by the U.S. Army and Ali Air Base by the U.S. Air Force, that United States intelligence services imported Afghan mercenaries into Iraq in order to attack Iraqi civilians and military personnel, as well as coalition forces, including U.S. service personnel. The Afghans were recruited from Taliban ranks and were paid for their services in Iraq.

WMR has learned that during 2007, Iraqi police stopped a truck hauling a 40-foot trailer on the Kerrada Bridge in Baghdad. When the Iraqi police officers checked the truck's trailer they were amazed to discover between 30 and 40 Afghan Taliban. They said they were brought into Iraq by the United States and were tasked with stirring up trouble in Iraq., much of it ascribed by U.S. military commanders as the work of the dubiously-named Tanzim Qaidat al-Jihad fi Bilad al-Rafidayn (Organization of Jihad's Base in the Country of the Two Rivers) or, more commonly known as "Al Qaeda of Mesopotamia."

The Iraqi police were told by senior U.S. military commanders on the scene to allow the Afghani insurgents to depart the Kerrada Bridge without any further hindrance.

The Taliban cell in Iraq apparently operated in conjunction with a covert U.S. plan to look the other way as Mahdi Army cells planted bombs in Iraq. On April 9, 2009, WMR reported: "WMR has been informed by a former private military contractor in Iraq that the United States was aware of the identities and even the cell phone numbers of several bomb making operatives within Muqtada al Sadr's Mahdi Army. The bomb cells were responsible for detonating a number of bombs in Iraq that targeted Sunnis and coalition personnel, including Americans." The failure of Generals David Petraeus and George Casey to act against the bomb-making cell was to not put in jeopardy a six-month extension of a cease-fire agreement agreed to by the MNF-I [Multi-national Force-Iraq] and [Muqtada] al Sadr's Shi'a militia in 2006.

One of the Shi'a bomb-making cells was located in the Kerrada district of Baghdad, the same area where the Taliban truck was stopped in Iraqi police. WMR has obtained a list [Part 1 and Part 2] provided to U.S. authorities by the coordinator of the Kerrada bomb cell. No action was taken by U.S. intelligence or military personnel to curtail the Shi'a militia bomb-making operation.

An English translation of the bomb-making cell list follows:

My name is Fadil Salim Naji of Jaderiya 923/43 Baghdad,Mobile 07901289687.
Before 2003 I was a Bathist party member and co-ordinator with the Iraqi government to the Iranian goverment. Since this time I have been working with the Iranian government in co-ordination with the Jeshil Mehdi army. My role has been to take money for arms purchases for the Mehdi army from the Iranian Intelligence and to place orders for weaponry. My meeting point with the Iranians was at the border point near to Maraghen City Iran....My orders were always from Athora City in Kerrada where I had contact to the Medhi army leaders.
Akiel Salam Hamid nicknamed (Al Iranie) of Jaderiya Baghdad works with his father Hussein Salim Hamid who and are responsible for bomb making and arranging the planting of devices. Mobile 07702 668 185.,Land line govt issued - 7786495.
Hussein Salim Hamid is responsible for counting military vehicles in the area of Jaderiya and is the main planning officer for appointing targets and building roadside bombs including the use of mainly semtex. He made the recent bomb which exploded outside the ice cream shop on Jaderiya street. Mobile - 0780 341 1480.
Fathil Dabus, Basin Hyder/Salim No23 ? was told by Hussein Hamid he had three days to leave his job or he and his family would be killed. Fathil Mobile-079067 61723 of Athora City received two calls from Hussein Hamid 23/10/07 and 11/10/07.
Fathil Dabus wife also threatened by Hussein Hamid infront of the Azur Girls school Jaderiya.

The reg on the car No.26888 BMW white test Baghdad. A car used to transport arms from the border meet point.
Saed Ahmed 07902272814 Enforcer for Hussein Hamid and responsible for many killings and bombs in the area

The use by U.S. special operations forces and covert U.S. intelligence agents of Taliban fighters from Afghanistan and Mahdi Army insurgents to foment violence and terrorism in Iraq represents yet another serious violation of international and domestic anti-terrorism treaties and laws by the Bush-Cheney administration. In the case of using Taliban fighters to stage attacks on U.S., coalition, and Iraqi targets and blaming them on "Al Qaeda in Mesopotamia," the Bush-Cheney administration once again has demonstrated that "Al Qaeda" is as much an invention of the last administration as the billing of "9/11" as a foreign terrorist attack....it was not, it was a full blown inside job par excellence....

Now the USA is so BROKE....won't you look at this....:

Now there is the prominent button asking you to donate to AmeriCares....on EBAY....

Now please go to Google and type "Americares CIA' and see what you get. I know them. I flew with them to the war zone. They are a giant massive front for the CIA pretending to be a humanitarian org. It's all CIA and it is huge. They may haul me off or stick me in more body scanners if I keep talking but this is the truth.

And now the poor Company is so broke that they have Ebay hustling up humanitarian donations for a CIA slush fund. Maybe the poppy fields had a bad crop. McChrystal did not pay enough attention? Or they expanded their global CIA hustle and operations so much that they need money everywhere and are now begging the public via Ebay. But I swear, Ebay is now hustling up donations for CIA operations. .....

Israeli-Indian alliance to take out Pakistani nuclear program goes back to 1982....

September , 2010 -- Israeli-Indian-USA alliance to take out Pakistani nuclear program goes back to 1982....

http://www.tajdeed.org/article.aspx?id=10334

US intelligence discovery of joint Indian-Israeli operation in 1982 reverberates today with plans to seize Pak nukes after nation declared failed state....

Amid the current propaganda blitz launched by the neocon Rupert Murdoch-owned Sky News and Wall Street Journal to hype an alleged Pakistani-based plot to launch Mumbai-style terrorist commando raids on targets in France, Germany, and Britain, WMR has discovered a CIA document from 1982 that warns of a joint Israeli-Indian operation to take out Pakistan's nuclear facilities.

France staged dubious evacuations of the Eiffel Tower and St. Michel and St. Lazare train stations in Paris, citing the "terrorist" threat from Pakistan. The Wall Street Journal, which, according to sources familiar with the management of the paper, maintains hiring practices that gives a preference to Jewish editors and reporters over non-Jews, reported that the CIA launched drone attacks in Pakistan in response to the spurious claims about imminent terror attacks in Europe planned in Pakistan. The drone attacks in Pakistan come at the same time that the Pakistani military is pressuring the government in Islamabad to re-organize, a move that could lead to more strife and dissension in the country.

The Sky News report stated the attacks in Europe were being planned by "Al-CIAda" in Pakistan and it cited "unnamed counterterrorism and intelligence sources in Western governments" as its sources.....

Clearly, the joint Israeli-Indian plan to militarily take out Pakistan's nuclear potential in 1982 has given way to a tripartite alliance of the CIA, Mossad, and the Indian Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) to destabilize Pakistan to the point that it is declared a "failed" or "failing" state, leading to a joint U.S.-Israeli-Indian operation to seize Pakistan's nuclear weapons and other nuclear materials.

The 1982 memo that predicted a joint Israeli-Indian military attack on Pakistan's nuclear facilities was sent from Hans Heymann. Jr., National Intelligence Officer at Large, to Harry S. Rowen, the chairman of the National Intelligence Council. The memo, dated December 22, 1982, and formerly classified Secret, listed two "Possible Future Contingencies," the first stating: "Key Pakistani facilities are destroyed by Indian and/or Israeli attack. What political and military consequences would ensue for Indian relations with Islamic countries, the USSR, China, and the US?" Heymann was a former Soviet economic specialist for the Rand Corporation. Rowen ultimately went on to become a professor at the Hoover Institution and Asia-Pacific Research Center at Stanford University. Rowen was also a colleague of neocon policy guru Albert Wohlstetter and Pentagon in situ neocon and agent-of-influence for Israel, Andy Marshall....

In 1982, Pakistan's nuclear weapons program was well underway under the direction of Dr. Abdul Qadeer (AQ) Khan with a wink-and-a-nod from the CIA, which was using Pakistan as a base of operations for its Mujahidin-led war against the Soviets in Afghanistan. Pakistan tested its first nuclear bomb in 1998.

In a rare display of journalistic independence, CBS News's Mark Phillips questions the motivation behind the latest "Al Qaeda" threat in Europe, citing one British source as stating the report, according to British Law enforcement sources, is a "load of old rubbish." The European "terror" warning suspiciously comes at the same time strikes and protests against strangling austerity measures have swept Europe, from a general strike in Spain to coordinated labor actions in Ireland, Italy, France, Greece, and Latvia.

CIA involved in covering up Air Force General Lavelle scapegoating in Vietnam...

http://www.veteranstoday.com/2010/09/28/gordon-duff-why-the-constitution-failed/

September , 2010 -- CIA involved in covering up Air Force General Lavelle scapegoating in Vietnam...

CIA document reveals incumbent Democratic congressman's role in covering up CIA drug smuggling during Vietnam War.....

A newly-revealed CIA document shows that the CIA was involved in covering up the Nixon administration's scapegoating of Air Force General John D. Lavelle, the commander of the 7th Air Force in South Vietnam, who was removed from his position and demoted from four-star to two-star general in 1972 after he was accused of carrying out unauthorized bombing missions of North Vietnam in 1971 and early 1972. In fact, the bombings were directly authorized by President Nixon with the full knowledge of Nixon's national security adviser, Henry Kissinger.

In October 1972, the Senate Armed Services Committee voted against allowing Lavelle to retire as a three-star lieutenant general. The chairman of the committee was John Stennis (D-MS). The uncovered CIA document, a memorandum from the CIA Legislative Counsel to CIA director Richard Helms, dated July 11, 1972, indicates that Stennis sent two staffers to Saigon to investigate the Lavelle affair, Jim Woolsey and Larry Garcia. The memo states: "Stennis has sent Jim Woolsey and Larry Garcia of the Committee staff, to Saigon to investigate the LaVelle [sic] case. The station has been alerted to show them appropriate courtesies but avoid any discussion of the LaVelle [sic] matter."

Woolsey was general counsel of the Armed Services Committee who would later serve as CIA director under President Bill Clinton. Woolsey, according to the CIA memo, limited the committee's investigation of the Lavelle affair and, considering the fact that the Senate committee voted to strip Lavelle of his third star for retirement, appeared to acquiesce in the CIA's stonewalling of the congressional investigation, as well as with Kissinger's and Nixon's scapegoating of the general.

Woolsey's perpetuation of lies and myths would continue into the 1990s when he advocated the invasion of Iraq to topple Saddam Hussein because of the non-existent Iraqi weapons of mass destruction "threat," Woolsey also acted as the chief lobbyist for Iraqi con-man's Iraqi National Congress, which was providing the Clinton and Bush administrations with massive amounts of bogus intelligence on Iraq.

Lavelle protested his innocence until his death in 1979 and stressed that he was acting under orders from his superiors. This past August, Lavelle was finally officially exonerated and his fourth star was posthumously restored and his official record purged of disparaging information. Nixon never revealed that it was he who gave the secret orders to Lavelle, through Secretary of Defense Melvin Laird, Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Admiral Thomas Moorer, US Pacific Commander Admiral John S. McCain, Jr., and South Vietnam U.S. military commander General Creighton Abrams.

The July 11 CIA memo also indicates that the CIA was prepared to declassify certain CIA reports on illicit drug trafficking in Indochina. The information was requested from the CIA by Representative Charles Rangel (D-NY) who requested the same information from John Ingersoll, the director of the U.S. Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs, the forerunner of the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Ingersoll referred Rangel's request to the CIA.

The memo states, "The whole problem has been taken up with the White House, where Walter Minick [sic], Bud Krogh's deputy, apparently opposes declassification of any material on the illicit drug traffic."The memo also states, "Rangel seems determined to press for a showdown. On 10 July he issued a public statement charging that CIA's 'paranoid quest for secrecy' was keeping vital information about the drug traffic from the American public, and that we were 'covering up for the international merchants of death.'"

Minnick is now a Democratic congressman from Idaho who is running for re-election and is leading in polls in his race against Republican Raul Labrador. However, the CIA memo indicates that Minnick was involved in covering up the CIA's role in drug trafficking in 1972 while he was a member of the Nixon administration. Krogh was in charge of Nixon's "Plumbers Unit," which ran the operation to burglarize the office of Daniel Ellsberg's psychiatrist's office. Krogh was convicted for his role in the Watergate scandal and served four and a half months in federal prison.

The same CIA memo also shows some angst at Langley over information received by the offices of Senator William Proxmire (D-WI) and Representative Les Aspin (D-WI) from Professor Alfred McCoy detailing the CIA's role in opium smuggling, using the CIA proprietary airline Air America, from Laos. There is also concern about a letter sent to the office of Senator Henry "Scoop" Jackson (D-WA) from Craig Jarrell, who was with an "outfit in Vientiane called Lao Air Development" and who complained that the CIA's Air America was overcharging U.S. agencies whereas his firm offered "comparable services at substantially lower rates." Jarrell wrote that he had contacted investigative journalist Jack Anderson about the matter. The memo does not indicate whether Jarrell was aware that the "services" provided by Air America included transporting drugs from Laos to South Vietnam and beyond....

The memo also stated that the Nixon administration was "dismayed" to learn that an "end the war" amendment sponsored by Senate Majority Leader Mike Mansfield (D-MT) was being considered by "fence sitter" senators who Kissinger had lobbied to support the Vietnam War. The fence sitters named in the CIA memo were Charles Percy (R-IL) and Jim Pearson (R-KS) and that Kissinger hoped to win them over with the disarray in the Democratic Party after the convention that nominated George McGovern for president and "expected ARVN [Army of the Republic of Vietnam] military successes."

The memo also shows some concern over two reports in The New York Times by Seymour Hersh that described the CIA's role in weather modification in Southeast Asia that was designed to produce drenching rain storms to stymie the flow of troops and materiel via the Ho chi Minh trail in Laos into South Vietnam. Throughout the 1960s and early 70s, silver iodide was dropped from Air America planes based at the Udorn airbase in Thailand. The silver iodide pellets seeded the clouds over Laos, northeastern Cambodia, and both South and North Vietnam, producing drenching rain storms. The CIA's weather modification program was known as Operation POPEYE. The rain that was produced was called "Olive Oil" by the CIA weather modification personnel. The actual seeding operations were code-named MOTORPOOL. The top secret project was the brainchild of scientists at the Naval Ordinance Test Station in China Lake, California and was also used to create droughts in Cuba to ruin that nation's sugar cane crop.

Such weather modification programs are now illegal under U.S. law but the drenching rains that caused recent devastating floods in Pakistan and a subsequent warning from US envoy to Afghanistan/Pakistan Richard Holbrooke that Pakistani military's first priority was to fight the "Pakistani Taliban" rather than assist in flood relief has some wondering if the CIA has re-created POPEYE in south Asia. Holbrooke was involved in crafting CIA odious covert operations in Southeast Asia during the Vietnam war.....
