A Traitorous Shade: The Betrayals of FBI Double Agent Robert Hanssen

A Traitorous Shade: The Betrayals of FBI Double Agent Robert Hanssen

Spies, moles, and double agents are similar but varying types of designations that populate the history of global intelligence. A loyal spy is among the most common type of employee within many national clandestine groups operating throughout history and in modern times, they may be found monitoring and engaging with various parts of a country’s bureaucratic infrastructure or enemy agencies and diplomatic personnel. Moles are much rarer because the classic definition of a mole requires them to be indoctrinated by enemy groups before they obtained access to classified information. Double agents however are less rare than moles because while they do betray the important secrets of their original agency, this betrayal is not premised upon a long planned ideological motivation. A mole is usually a strategically planned infiltration based upon years of training and plans but a double agent often develops upon other circumstances and grievances. Yet some double agents have strategic access to intelligence than might allow them to produce damage comparable to a mole, and one such person deemed among the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s most destructive betrayers was named Hanssen…

The Nations that cried Disinformation

The Nations that cried Disinformation

For craven politicians, eager political advocates, and deceptive intelligence leaders a crisis also presents an opportunity. We in times of health crisis must not just face the disaster that everyone is concerned with but additionally must guard against growing fear and disgust generated by those who desire to manipulate us. Isolation for public health forces some people to be alone in a heightened state of stress facing instinctual emotions that allow external powers and official groups to manipulate citizens. Many national governments during world history exploited dangers beyond their control to enact laws and intelligence operations and some even use existing dangers to manufacturing greater panic by increasing the fear response inside targeted nations to damage them beyond normal disasters alone.

New Book Faces Human Violence and Aggression

New Book Faces Human Violence and Aggression

Violence has always been with us since the beginning of the human species because aggressive behavior is both a danger and defense that can allow humans to oppress their competitors or prevent such tyranny. With the growing hyperbole of national politics fueled by obsessive internet usage and the drastic reduction of human interaction, some are becoming emotionally detached and violently lashing out. Outrage dominates public discourse as factions demand censorship and some are too engrossed in unimportant conflict or entertainment to observe the ongoing calamity. Perhaps some just do not care anymore and that apathy is a dire problem for everyone. "Human Time Bomb: The Violence Within Our Nature" by C.A.A. Savastano poses important questions, offers substantial evidence, considers how violence has shaped the path of human history, and presents ideas about what might be done to reduce it ongoing effects.

Note the Chain

Note the Chain

All humans are pattern-seeking creatures because the recognition of valid patterns is an evolutionary mechanism in the human brain. While indeed overreliance on seeking just self-gratifying patterns can lead to false connections and incorrect speculations, patterns based on verifiable evidence do not often suffer from these pitfalls. When a chain of events occurs with a pattern established in evidence, it feasibly leads to reasonable questions and new facts. The chain of historical events if studied closely might reveal the yet unseen connections and present that what once is dismissed with scorn can still be true…

Travelers, Informants, and Defectors

Travelers, Informants, and Defectors

Feasibly both the United States and Russian governments utilized several travelers and defectors. These people were tourists or aspiring expatriates who seemingly wished to embrace foreign life. These defectors in some cases provided useful intelligence data on topics of official interest. Over twenty United States military personnel defected from 1960 to 1962.i The Central Intelligence Agency and Federal Bureau of Investigation debriefed some upon their return. Other prior defectors continued to be sources of official information...

Who were Mr. and Mrs. Oswald?

Who were Mr. and Mrs. Oswald?

Competing influences surround the Oswalds. Official groups vied for their various statements and influenced public perceptions. The earliest statements evolve in time. Official suppression and contending evidence regarding Lee Harvey Oswald is worthy of note. However, some public authorities and critics of conspiracy often state no proof exists of official interest in using Oswald for operational purposes...

Lee Harvey Oswald feasibly had no consistent Rifle Practice

Despite corroborated suppressed evidence and a possible feasibly small conspiracy, I do not support that most official evidence is tainted. However, key moments and official assertions are deficient in my view and require further study and comparison with the facts. Namely, the assertion by the Commission that Lee Harvey Oswald regularly practiced with his Carcano rifle on a regular basis. This idea while supported by many critics of conspiracy is not as reliable as some imagine...

The CIA, a Russian defector, and the Communist conspiracy that likely never was

However not all in government agreed, some would allow the repeated breach of law to conceal their involvement for the "implications". While some may enjoy reciting the findings of the President's "Warren" Commission, the following information is intentionally absent. Commission documents are definitely not the complete story...
