The CIA, according to reports (not sure where these 'leaked reports' ever come from - do you know??), called Imad Mughniyeh 'the untraceable ghost.'
Robert Baer, an ex-CIA 'structuralist' - I won't say 'analyst; he was probably a bit more than that - was in the very public arena from early on, saying that al-Mughniyeh was the most deadly terrorist in the world, and much more serious of a threat than Bin Laden.
Imad Mughniyeh. Most dangerous terrorist ever. |
He was killed while passing by on foot, when a car bomb was detonated - on the night of 12 February 2008 in Kafr Sousa, Damascus, Syria.
Imad ibn Javad al Mughniyeh was a Pakistani, not a Lebanese...
And he spoke fluent French and was someone who at times seemed to be able to live in and transit through France freely and at will.
Well, it's a complicated world, see.
But he was not the 'ghost assassin.'
That would be a term for those who kill you and disappear into the night never to be seen or heard of again. Like - ever.
Let's not go back to the billionaires from Syria who own Formula 1 racing teams, and 'Swiss watch' companies and all of that though. And who own street blocks in the center of Paris. And HO's in Luxembourg.
Anyway.
General Qasem Soleimani. |
The person who took over from Mughniyeh was Qasem Soleimani.
If we go back to Robert Baer, we shall note that he explains that the US has often in the past not really understood that 'targeted political murder' has to effect change or else it is worthless.
He says merely 'symbolic assassinations' can serve to strength your enemy, rather than undermine him.
And he's right.
Which is why there is a faction within secret - highly secret - organizations around the world today, who understand this, and do not over-indulge in such things. But when they do them at all, it is very meaningful.
That is, meaningful to those to whom it should have meaning. And leaving all the rest of us, just sitting there scratching our heads and going 'what happened?'
Baer uses the phrase 'the narrow channeling of violence.'
It's not perceived as a full-blown war then, see.
Robert Baer. |
The Western World's traditional prohibition against political assassination altered during the time of Ronald Reagan, when the designation of someone as an 'enemy combatant' became the legal tool to green-light state-sanctioned assassination. But even then, things are not so clear, because murder is a crime and the FBI actually had Robert Baer charged with attempting to kill Saddam Hussein at the same time that the US government formally issued orders to 'capture or kill,' him.
The charges were dropped in court though after some months of initial hearings. And besides, Baer had nothing to do with it anyway.
An enemy combatant, say, of the Russian government (well that makes things easier to talk about here then, doesn't it!) - might be some Ukrainian who was supplying passable stories about 'Russian interference,' for example. Because people from the Ukraine can easily fly stuff over the heads of the American and UK consumers of such junk -, who would then ignorantly think the stuff was 'Russian.'
Such people are called 'consultants' and 'consultants' are viable targets too.
Make the goat fall over, George. 'Electron Spintronics' - there's a good part, and a bad part. You have to be responsible. |
No one shoots themselves in the foot on purpose, do they? Because the Biden administration, and the Hillary/Obama Borg elite sponsor the Russian fairy tale narrative. I mean, you can't say they are corrupted by the Ukrainians! Ha ha. What a silly thing! I mean, you can't say US Supreme Court judges are - corrupt!
Let's see Alec be funny again though, right?
So who was it, because it was not an accident.
That question, my friends, you will find yourself asking yourself, over and over and over again in the coming months, until finally you will go 'WTH!' And then by that time it will be too late.
Meanwhile, Alec Baldwin will never do a Trump SNL thing again. And if he tries, it will be even better. Can you imagine the squirming going on in Switzerland right now, in that big room with the sort of circular table where the 'creative people' are, who think up the propaganda?
WPP should re-brand themselves to 'Spectre.' And get Rachel Maddow to do the SNL hit pieces from now on. That will work. Wow, the LSD those guys must be on... They should move now to 'industrial strength manufactured consent.' We've certainly moved out of the 'manufactured funny' stage, the canned laughter funny stage pretending to be political satire.
But why so much intrigue and messing about in the first place, right? If you really have the ability to bring down goats at a distance?
Well just stand back and watch.
I am trying, as I have repeated too, over and over here, to stay away from these dark goings-on.
