Of course we have seen Frank G. Wisner II in Cairo for Ms Clinton and the Obama administration during the latter days of president Mubarak. The US funded NGOs are getting kicked out of many nations, who have become uninterested in these events leading to ‘democratization.’ I read BooMan’s fp story which led to OSS/OPC and  Richard Bissell – Into the Wayback Machine . This sentence caught my attention:

    “Actually, it’s a 1975 interview (pdf) with 1954 Guatemalan coup participant and Bay of Pigs mastermind Jacob ‘Jake’ Esterline that was conducted in the Virgin Islands by CIA historian Jack B. Pfeiffer. It’s a gem of a find …”

Lovely combination, don’t ye think? German Marshall Fund [funded boxer turned politician Vitali Klitschko] backs the western coup d’état in Kiev with funds from USAID, etc. Vicky Nuland had to invest het money $5 bn somewhere, why not on her ancestor’s ground.

OSS, Marshall Plan

Richard Mervin Bissell worked closely with the Office of Policy Coordination (OPC) [CIA working paper after FOIA request – pdf], which had helped to organize guerrilla fighting, sabotage and espionage during World War II. In July, 1947 Bissell was recruited by Averell Harriman to run a committee to lobby for an economic recovery plan for Europe. The following year he was appointed as an administrator of the Marshall Plan in Germany and eventually became head of the Economic Cooperation Administration.

Any analysis of the ACUE must be set in the context of a broader programme of US covert operations in Europe. Between 1948 and 1950 this expanded rapidly, partly in response to pressure fromsenior State Department officials such as George Kennan, Head of the Policy Planning Staff. On 6 January 1949, Kennan wrote to FrankWisner of the Office of Policy Coordination (OPC), the official responsible, that the operations planned for 1949-50 met only the minimum requirement.

‘As the international situation develops, every day makes more evident the importance of the role which will have to be played by covert operations if our national interests are to be adequately protected.” Responsibility for the direction of US covertoperations before 1950 is difficult to locate and was problematic at the time. Immediately after the war such activities were carried out by a curious array of private bodies and also military organizations that had absorbed some remnants of the wartime OSS

After June 1948, however, such activities were theoretically superintended by Frank Wisner’s OPC, set up as a result of directive NSC 10/2, which called for covert operations which ‘if uncovered the United States Government can plausibly disclaim any responsibility for them’. 10

Although OPC came under the administrative umbrella of the CIA, it took its orders from the State Department and the NSC, because NSC 10/2 had laid down that although the State Department would take no responsibility for OPC operations, nevertheless, State should ‘maintain a firm guiding hand’.11  Here was a recipe for  infighting and confusion, as one OPC official remarked: ‘Divided or part authority never works.

 No person or agency can at the same time serve God (NSC), Mammon (State) and an Administrative and Financial Overlord (only), which the Director of CIA now is.’ In 1950, the new director of the CIA, Walter Bedell Smith, insisted that OPC be fully integrated with the CIA, a process that turned out to be slow and awkward.12

Gladio Files and Ukraine Maidan Revolt: “Blitzkrieg, die nächste Generation”

Ambassador Geoffrey Pyatt our (CIA) point man for repetitive false flag operations in Kiev and Donetsk: sniper killings on Maidan Independence Square, Jewish manifest in Donetsk and the Buk-M1 challenge of Malaysian flight MH-17. The downing of an passenger plane isn’t the first instance at the hands of the United States: USS Vincennes Iran Air Flight 655 and bombing of Cuban Air Flight 455. Both former Soviet satellite states Ukraine and Georgia have downed Russian aircraft before.
