James Jesus Angleton also took him seriously, as did certain wings within MI5. His original book, "New Lies For Old," was just too damn scary ... even if largely on the money.
The KGB managed to infiltrate and hobble the CIA by driving Angleton nuts, and dividing the company into two camps: (1) 1 believing in a false defector (2) the other knowing the guy was a phony, but being unable to prove it. It took them 10 years, but by the time Jimmy was President, and another nutjob, Stansfield Turner, who did not value "HUMINT" took over the CIA for him, the KGB plan was complete and the CIA became seriously weakened.
It is still in a weakened state because many of the leftish fools put in high places by the Turner regime are still there. Golytsin, having been a confidant of Angleton's, is an annoyance to the powers that be at the CIA. Both were right then, and Golystsin still is, but they lost.
IMHO, Golytsin is telling us that Communism is not dead, it is resting and re-arming, while hoping the west goes to sleep... again, and that there is no real split between China and Russia. Of course, we didn't need him to tell us that the KGB worked hand-in-glove with the forces of Islamic terrorism.
Post 59, should be posted with the communist manifesto.
Both have so many items that are coming true.
All true. There is also the Kosvinsky Mountain complex.
It’s hard to believe the Chinese are thrilled when their students abroad are beaten to death by Russian skins, or that the Russians are thrilled when the Chinese buy off their local officials and intelligence officers in the Far East, marrying them to Chinese women to ensure the loyalty of their offspring (as well as repopulating the area with Chinese immigrants).
I don’t know why, but with Obama in office and his appeasement of Russia, I have decided to bring this thread back from the dead....
If anyone has any information on Golytsin and how he relates to Obama (or predictions about Obama), now is the time to post it.
