Russia could attack NATO by 2030, German intelligence chief says

Kahl's comments were the latest in a series of increasingly dire warnings from Western leaders and defense officials about the threat emanating from #Russia and #Europe's current lack of preparedness.

Russia's determination to use #covert and hybrid measures against the West has reached a "level previously unseen," Kahl said, adding that they are being used "without any scruples."

Russia could attack NATO by 2030, German intelligence chief says

Moscow's ultimate goals are to "push the U.S. out of Europe," roll back NATO boundaries to the 1990s, and create a "Russian sphere of influence" that will cement a "new world order," said German intelligence chief Bruno Kahl.

The CIA was founded in the wake of the 1947 National Security Act. The Act foresaw no need for the Courts and Congress to oversee a simple information-aggregation facility, and therefore subordinated it exclusively to the President, through the National Security Council he controls.

Within a year, the young agency had already slipped the leash of its intended role of intelligence collection and analysis to establish a covert operations division. Within a decade, the CIA was directing the coverage of American news organizations, overthrowing democratically elected governments (at times merely to benefit a favored corporation), establishing propaganda outfits to manipulate public sentiment, launching a long-running series of mind-control experiments on unwitting human subjects (purportedly contributing to the creation of the Unabomber), and—gasp—interfering with foreign elections. From there, it was a short hop to wiretapping journalists and compiling files on Americans who opposed its wars.

America’s Open Wound

The CIA is not your friend

Around 1995 my uncle showed me an #AI that could successfully guess what a user was thinking about within a particular category, similar to the game 20 questions.

My uncle's name was Alan Woodhouse, a 156 IQ computer #programmer who worked for what was then called the #Wellcome Foundation.

Unfortunately Alan is no longer alive so I am no longer able to converse with him, but I wanted to mention that the kind of AI that is now being made available #online in the public domain existed in 1995 if not earlier.

Unless there has been little to no AI #development since 1995, it seems obvious that what we're seeing in the public domain is at least 30 years behind where the cutting edge of #covert AI development truly is.

2. Engineered false flag attack on #Internet #infrastructure using a #virus or electromagnetic #weaponry framed as a terrorist attack or otherwise framed as an attack by a #nation state.

Britain’s Covert War in Yemen

#Britain ’s #Covert #War in #Yemen #UK #UN #politics

"The brutal war in Yemen, which has raged since 2015, is the world’s worst #humanitarian #disaster . A delicate truce since April has reduced some of the horror, but that deal seems to be breaking down.

It should be time to reflect about who, on all sides of the conflict, including in Britain, might be indicted for #war #crimes . Nearly 9,000 civilians have been killed in over 25,000 mainly #Saudi air strikes which have been facilitated by Britain’s Royal Air Force. Many more tens of thousands have been killed in the conflict.

The U.N. has repeatedly alleged the commission of war crimes but no Saudi, Briton or Yemeni has been held to account, nor is likely to be. Tragically, it is history repeating itself, and the price once again is being paid by ordinary Yemenis."
