History remembers Benito Mussolini as a founder member of the original Axis of Evil, the Italian dictator who ruled his country with fear and forged a disastrous alliance with Nazi Germany. But a previously unknown area of Il Duce’s CV has come to light: his brief career as a British agent.Archived documents have revealed that Mussolini got his start in politics in 1917 with the help of a £100 weekly wage from MI5.For the British intelligence agency, it must have seemed like a good investment. Mussolini, then a 34-year-old journalist, was not just willing to ensure Italy continued to fight alongside the allies in the first world war by publishing propaganda in his paper. He was also willing to send in the boys to “persuade” peace protesters to stay at home.

Those wacky, Britainians.
And Osama used to work for CIA.

Actually Afghanistan’s Karzai was a CIA man during the Soviet invasion. You have to wonder how many other despots and lunatics are ex spooks.

Remember the classic phrase “Those who do not learn from history are bound to repeat it”?
I guess we didn’t.
Anyone catch the parallels between Mussolini and Saddam Hussein?
Waiting for the Barack Obama conspiracy theorists to pile on…
well now…i’d say you can chock one up for the “secretes revealed” meme.
Now…for the rest of the class..
the Brits, (or should i say City of London?) and their banking buddies, -along with a few select others from the TPTB crew, have had a hand in creating and funding both sides of every war since their inception.
The same can be said for any corporation that sells [in particular] military weapons.
Personally, i do not think it is a far stretch to assume every other “intelligence” agency is in lock-step with the MI5’s (and the church’s) machinations on completely duping the masses into believing there are evil “boogie men” hiding behind every corner for which we must forever [fund] and be grateful that the Intelligencias of the world are tirelessly working to stop them..
One need only dig into the October 2002 Bali bombing as a very minor example to see the the head games that government intelligence agencies play on the public.. (or you can pick 20 other similar events of your own)
The grunts on the ground might be noble in their efforts, but the sleaze at the top of ever intelligence agency pyramid are all compromised, corrupted and controlled by the few that run the whole planetary game.
-As for our “noble” CIA, well yeah, it is fact that the Afghanistan Freedom Fighters (AKA the Taliban) was created and backed by the CIA [with further training provided by Pakistan the Brits and the U.S,) to wear down and bankrupt the Russians *out* of afghanistan in the 80’s.
As that whole fiasco was wound down, the same clan [ISI, CIA, MI5 et al.] then helped to create, arm and train Al-Qaeda and Bin laden into primary existence to continue the festivities [read: mayhem] there and eventually, around the world.
The fact that the it came out that the FBI [with the CIA’s blessing, no doubt] created, and backed the whole 1993 WTC bombing [not to mention switching the fake bomb for a real one) should have been more than enough for any unadulterated idiot to hear Eisenhower’s farewell speech about “the military industrial complex” resonating like mad in their ears, -and see what is really going on.
However, once again we learn we should never underestimate Yankee ingenuity when it comes to building a better idiot. -or turning an entire country into a bunch of ignorant fools with a tabloid IQ and mentality.
[some people wonder why to this day, no connection has ever been found between Bin Laden and 9/11. (clue: there is no evidence, only hearsay.)
There still is nothing on his FBI most wanted poster in relation to 9/11. His only role was to be yet another paid FBI patzi, -like in 1993 event.]
Like some Russians say, “They have succeeded beyond our wildest imaginations”
War is too profitable and too easy to ever allow even one day of peace to ever exist.
Until the fluoride and MSM soaked masses finally realize and admit this, very soon, the only American Dream we will ever know is the one that George Orwell warned us of: A boot stomping on a human face for eternity.

Learn what “New Speak” is.
If you turn off your tv, within a month, maybe two, the persistent illusion that you live in will fade away. Only then will you begin to be able to shatter the mirror image illusion you think is reality and take steps to learn the truth about *everything* -and cut the strings of your puppet masters once and for all.
One of my favorite all time shows is “Spooks”(MI-5 in USDM). I would love to see a historical version with the same brutality and attention to detail.
For anyone who often gives DVD show seasons this is a wonderful gift for the politically aware/spy interested set.
A shameless plug, but when does the humble man stand up for the network with such verve?

Life magazine describes Mussolini’s fascism.
It’s good to know that the USA isn’t the only nation that pre-finances its future enemies. Like the whole Noriega thing, about him being trained and financed thru the CIA or “School of the Americas” program. Apparently the Brits had their own school of dirty tricks, for foreigner allies. And never questioned what Benito would eventually end up becoming. I seriously doubt that the UK or US governments ever gives these clowns psych evaluations. They’re only interested is having someone who will keep the locals from revolting.
