This is the story of a conspiracy against Kerry in occasion of the 2004 presidential elections, although there be a lot more than that.
In occasion of the 2004 presidential elections, Bush “was standing for reelection, and our nation seemed so divided that it was going to be extremely close. Unless, for example, between the summer’s night and the election, it could be made to look like John Kerry’s campaign treasurer was also Osama bin Laden’s U.S. campaign treasurer. And give the sublime talents of Richard Hirschfeld and Robert Sensi, that wasn’t nearly as preposterous as it might sound.
“What I realized then was I had already decided that, no matter how dangerous it might become, I had to warn John Kerry. But how? How the hell was I supposed to warn Kerry without far too many people learning my identity? Hirschfeld and Sensi were simply not like other men. I had little doubt what they, and whoever was protecting them in Washington, would want to do to me if they ever found out I was working overtime to sabotage their plan.”
(Kolb 2007, p. 98)
Unaccountable “governments”/States and governments, as the facto are, perhaps even more than the other ones, the “governments”/States and governments of the so-called “liberal” or “liberal-democratic” regimes, are criminal entities without any real difference between them and the criminals or turned criminals with whom they are intertwine. The “government”/State apparatuses, included police and judiciary, are made functional to the pursuing and the cover of the private crimes of politicians of the wide area of people in various criminal businesses with them.
“Governments”/States are under the control of a variety of powerful interest groups using them for their profits. Equally, politicians and the wide area of their co-operators, all serving these powerful interests, take their personal gains from their [pseudo-]institutional activities.
State bureaucracies are not basically different. More they are involved in Governments/States crimes, more they can pursue their private crimes and gains without fear of any accountability.
Small criminals, when not any more useful, may be easily variously discharged and/or liquidated, so simulating an accountability actually does not exist.
The world of the “intelligence” and of covert operations is, even more than other sectors, privileged field for State/“government”-used and -covered insane criminals.
This book is a useful and detailed glance on this world or sub-world, and also on how politics and “free” elections can be and are variously manipulated creating “news” determining or changing or influencing electors’ behaviours. Reality is a manipulation.
It would be wrong, anyway, to imagine powerful and refined minds pursuing pre-planned evils. Generally, evil is pursued from idiotic lousish minds not really known what they be doing if not that they be obeying some undefined compulsive disorder and pursuing some hypothetical goal for some material advantage have been promised them or they imagine will be given to them. So, finally, a specific manipulation is more a casual achievement than something previously determined. Louses are generally convinced and conditioned about what they already believed and according how they already perceived themselves and others. Propaganda gives voice to something was already felt.
