Bill Binney: Intelligence Agencies Have Become American "Praetorian Guard

NSA whistleblower Bill Binney speaks to 'The Jimmy Dore Show' about problems in the official storyline of the alleged Russian hack of the DNC, Guccifer 2.0, and Mueller’s indictments.

Says the intelligence agencies are out of control and seek to become an American "Praetorian Guard," referring to the personal guards of the Roman Emperor, who as the empire gradually decayed, began to kill emperors who got a little too crazy or too ambitious, and replace them with whoever could pay the most.

"The new thing is Russia, Russia, Russia, New Cold War," Binney said. "That means a few more trillions of dollars into the coffers, that is the big swindle... That's it... Behind the Shadow Government, which is what this is, is the Deep State, that is the military-industrial-intelligence complex and all the banks are a part of that, and even the technology people are now a part of that too... This deep state that is driving the push for more and more money to make more and more contracts from government, more and more control.

This whole thing boils down to three words: Power, control, and money... They even lie within the agencies to manipulate money around, and they lie from agency to agency, for one agency to get an advantage over another, and even within the government, people in Congress are giving out money according to how many people put military bases or some kind of facility that puts money into constituents' area."

Binney, the NSA's former top codebreaker who resigned in protest after 9/11 when the decision was made to use systems he created to spy on the American public in general, said it was obvious to him that the Democratic National Committee is lying when they claim they have proof the Russians hacked their server.net.

Consider these quotes that sound just too damn familiar from "The Russian Revolution" by Alan Moorehead 1958:

"… this was a predatory state which the Czar and a small group of noblemen and bureaucrats ruled for their own exclusive benefit...The ruling group owned all the wealth, enjoyed all the privileges and monopolized all the political power, and it did not intend to give up any of its prerogatives. It considered the peasants to be little better than animals..."

The peasants presented still another problem. All over Russia they were beginning to feel their power, and they were armed.

Link to the Donna Zuckerberg article:

First I heard of Donna Z was at Stave Sailer at UNZ. Her so called classics magazine is 90% female writers and they want to take down the traditional histories of classical civilizations. Written by the evil Patriarchy of course. One must think that wacky Donna has unlimited funding for her vanity project. From Zuck of course!

An armed peasant is a good peasant. Even if his arms are axes and pitchforks.

Yep. But the cookie-cutter conservatives are all for selling ropes to commies so they can hang us all.

I also consider Pirate Steve Jobs to have been a crook. He stole from Xerox and got away with it.
