For quite a while I’ve thought that such “fiction” would be a good way to explore political strategies, especially given all the speculation about “Civil War II.” How might it unfold? Short fictional scenarios, in particular. What would “work”? What wouldn’t?

I expect someone will raise a red lantern in a university tower or an office building. That can be all it takes to begin a shooting war:

The Red Order of Revolution was issued on 26 January, and a red lantern, a symbolic indicator of the uprising, was lit in the tower of the Helsinki Workers' House. A large-scale mobilisation of the Reds began late in the evening of 27 January, with the Helsinki Red Guard and some of the Guards located along the Vyborg-Tampere railway having been activated between 23 and 26 January, in order to safeguard vital positions and escort a heavy railroad shipment of Bolshevik weapons from Petrograd to Finland. White troops tried to capture the shipment: 20–30 Finns, Red and White, died in the Battle of Kämärä at the Karelian Isthmus on 27 January 1918.

Thank you. My ideas had more to do with Pa patriot attack on one or more major news outlets. It would need to be big.

[Travis McGee]

Yep, and I would include Page/Strzok’s White House spy “Charlie” CIAramella along with Fisch as a likely false-flag target.

[Travis McGee]

I sure hope that Bull Durham has them all!

[Travis McGee]

Thanks. I put these out in the public domain so that if they happen, we can throw the false-flag possibility right back in their faces in the same news cycle.

The Fisch Story goes well with this interview:

Can I get in on this ping list?

[Travis McGee]

I have an old copy, but I don’t update it. Ask Jack Black, he updates the list.

[FlyingEagle]

Trav, I am loving this one. That beady eyed pencil necked Shifty has no idea how expendable he is for the puppeteers. The longer this drags out, the more evident it is that the head of the snake is consuming its own tail.

[Travis McGee]

Yes, they are burning their own networks of spies in their last desperate attempt to stave off the Durham reckoning.

Anthony Poshepny, 1924-2003

You know who Tony Po was? He's Gone to Fiddler's Green now, but he set the example for us, 50+ years ago....

Tony Po returned to Southeast Asia with a brief assignment in northern Cambodia training anti-communist partisans. Then it was to Pa Dong, Laos, in March 1961 to work with the Hmong. He was then transferred to Long Tieng. Hating paperwork and preferring the field, Po was content that a younger officer, Vincent Lawrence, served as base chief with himself as underling. He ran field missions with the Hmong partisans. After the Geneva Accords of 1962, which was to have removed all U.S. field operatives from the country, Lawrence and Po remained at Long Tieng anyway to coordinate with Vang Pao. Poshepny is said to have had shifting relations with Vang Pao and there were reportedly multiple incidents where the two almost came to blows or even drawn guns. Lawrence remained the head CIA man.

Poshepny had a checkered reputation with senior CIA officers for a number of reasons. One was that during the period of post-Geneva fictive neutrality, he reportedly continued to go out on field missions. During his career Po would be wounded about a dozen times, including losing some fingers to a booby-trap that killed a fellow officer. On another occasion he shouldered a wounded Hmong fighter and carried him about 30 km back to camp for the doctors to see him. His difficulties with Vang Pao gradually increased and created a second problem. His drinking also did not help.

With April 1964, when the Laotian operation went back into high gear, came reports of Po paying bounties for severed heads and ears of alleged Pathet Lao guerrillas. When the CIA Station questioned his body counts, he told the partisans to cut off the ears of dead enemies, which he kept in a plastic bag. When Poshepny considered he had enough he forwarded them to Embassy Vientiane. “I used to staple them to the reports,” Po joked. “There were bushels of ears at headquarters.” He admits to “distributing” at least two. Another time a village that had shot at Po’s aircraft was threatened by the airdrop of a severed head. The outraged headman managed to get the tail number of the Air America aircraft and complained to Embassy Vientiane. The ambassador was forced to apologize to the villagers. “if you do everything according to the orders, you’d be in a straightjacket. You have to break the monotony sometimes,” Po is quoted as saying.
