Troubling Questions Emerge About FBI’s Strzok; Father Worked in Africa for Companies Linked..

Embattled FBI Agent Peter Strzok, embroiled in the spying and wiretapping scandal of President Trump, grew up in Africa for a stint while his father worked for companies that have long been linked as operational and funding cut-outs for the Central Intelligence Agency, according to records.

Now, as the spying and wiretapping scandal of the FBI has implicated former CIA Director John Brennan and Barack Obama’s CIA, questions have emerged about the FBI Strzok’s connections to the CIA. And that of his family too. The Inspector General is probing many facets of FBI corruption, along with House and Senate committees. That includes CIA involvement in the FBI spying scandals. And Strzok’s alleged role as a clandestine liaison between FBI and CIA.

True Pundit reported Brennan’s involvement in Sept. 2017 and now — nine months later — others are asking questions about the FBI’s involvement with the CIA with what amounts to an apparent clandestine operation to unseat President Trump — or make sure he was never elected in the first place.

The FBI’s Strzok bragged in internal FBI text messages about obtaining a CIA coin – often awarded for meritorious service to intelligence agents — from and personally signed by former CIA Director John Brennan in 2017. Now Strzok is accused of working with CIA cut-out Stefan Halper to set traps for Trump associates.

How did Strzok know John Brennan and what was his involvement with FBI operations linked to Trump campaign skullduggery? FBI and CIA operations are separated for a reason.

Peter Strzok Sr.. the father of the FBI’s Peter Strzok, served 21 years in the Army before taking a post in Africa for Catholic Relief Services, a charity with bonafide international links to the CIA and funding from the United Nations..

Thanks for the ping! I’ll check into it.

Hospice staffer leaves for work in Kenya - Directing her last Spinoza
Laurinburg Exchange, The (NC) - May 25, 2007B
Author/Byline: DOT COBLE; LIFE TIMES EDITOR Section: NewsPage: B002

Julie Strzok-Harris has been directing Hospice of Scotland County’s Camp Spinoza for grieving children for the past four years, since joining the staff as bereavement coordinator and counselor.

Come June 9-10, she will direct her final weekend camp at Camp Monroe, a favorite and most meaningful responsibility of her Hospice experience.

Strzok-Harris has always had a desire to be a missionary in Africa, “since way back in 1961,” she said. “It’s a calling that I felt way back in my junior-senior year of high school when I became a nun. It’s calling me again,” she said with a smile. With that tugging at her heart strings, she is retiring from Hospice following Camp Spinoza,

“Now I have a brother who is a jesuit priest who lives in Nairobi, Kenya (the capital of Kenya),’ she pointed out. “He has been living there for 13 years. He’s settled and he has all sorts of possible ideas of work for me.”

Strzok-Harris expects to be in Kenya for at least three years, possibly teaching English, working in an orphanage or at a spirituality center. “I won’t know until I get there,” she said. Strzok-Harris is both excited and scared about her decision to live in Africa.

Julie Strzok-Harris joined the Hospice staff in 2003. She conducts the Healing Hearts program for children. And even while still serving as children’s librarian at Scotland County Memorial Library, she directed Camp Spinoza for Hospice.

U.S. options limited on Iran

Peter P. Strzok of Washburn served in Iran for 10 years as the principal engineer advisor to the Ministry of War and in the same role in an Inter-Agency Working Group under Prime Minister Hoveda.

Generating hysteria won’t aid interests of larger global community

I somehow think Jahn missed that most important point. So let’s go beyond him and look at Iran’s nuclear plans, stability in the Middle East and the price of energy. Add the high probability of continuing non-combatant attacks by terrorists,”and how the energy-clients of Middle East oil go about “controlling the bad guys (expensive but necessary deterrence). This includes massive information sharing by everyone being threatened, i.e., most of the established governments of the world. I believe most people of the world accept the value of common defense against the crazies. Iran supports the crazies. Europe, Japan, USA and its other allies agree on that. It is not new, it started with the advent of the Khomeini regime in 1979 and continues.

Now look at the play of Russia and President Putin. Russia got a monopoly on Iran’s gas starting in the 1970s. It takes Iranian gas and sells it to Europeans and others for a handsome premium. It wants more and it looks like Iran will sell more to”Russia.”Putin clearly knows how to develop, strengthen and control monopolistic practices in the world marketplace. The current culture in Russia is to give him more power. That should scare the bejabbers out of the Europeans and they’seem to be running scared.”A few notable exceptions, i.e., President of France Sarkozy and his enigmatic, capable Foreign Minister Kouchner and”Poland, Georgia and Ukraine. Kouchner, remember, while in Moscow, declared that”possession of nuclear weapons by Iran could be considered a “causis belli.” This is stronger than”anything out of USA. Mr. Jahn should have included that in his analysis.

Last night’s news”included reports of ’the new U.S. intelligence estimate that Iran apparently has suspended its uranium enrichment process that would yield weapon grade uranium “isotopes. Apparently, too, its applied research, well-advanced, for nuclear power plants continues with several external partners doing technology transfer and construction in Iran — read Japan, China, Pakistan, Russia, Germany, “et al.

This new intelligence estimate should allow the world to take a deep breath, settle down”and continue the process of reconciling the diverse needs, goals and”interests of these many important members of the world community. Thus, a”nod to Secretary Rice and Secretary Gates for their balanced statements on the Iran nuclear issue inclusive to the whole Middle East and efforts to get other players into the mix. Stay multi-lateral, resist bi-lateral. An aside — when are the EU people going to step up to the plate?

Peter Strzok served as a principal U.S. engineer adviser to the Iranian government (1965-67; 1973-75) during its initial efforts to develop nuclear power as a substitute to fossil fuels; served as escort officer for the Iranian Chief of Engineers’ two-month visit to USA in 1970, who, among other things, was seeking U.S. partners for technology-transfer’to transform”Iran’s energy sector from fossil fuels to nuclear power, especially in domestic electrical needs.

Lisa Page ‘06: Living Her Dream

Lisa Page never expected that she would land her ideal job immediately after graduating law school, but her dream came to fruition shortly before Thanksgiving 2005. She was driving when the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) called and informed her that she had earned a position as one of five new federal prosecutors in its Organized Crime and Racketeering Section through their honors program. “I pulled over and screamed. I’ve never been so excited,” she says.

The road to Lisa’s current position began when she worked for the Federal Trade Commission prior to law school. Her participation in the Moritz DC summer program, where she worked for the Federal Reserve Board, further instilled her commitment to public service. However, it was during the beginning of her second year at Moritz that she honed in on wanting to be a federal prosecutor. She took almost every criminal law class at Moritz, and she found that “the quality of the teaching and the presentation of the material proved more interesting to me than any sort of civil work I’d experienced.” She gives credit to Professor Krivoshey’s evidence course, which helps her think on her feet and make quick decisions in her role at the DOJ.

Lisa works in the DOJ’s Organized Crime and Racketeering Section. “Because I work at the headquarters, I prosecute in all jurisdictions, and because I work with organized crime, I travel a lot,” she explains. She began her work with a six-month detail in the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the District of Columbia. She found it enlightening to work in DC, given its unique legal structure. Her training period imbued her with a thicker skin, and the experience provided her with numerous situations where “something unexpected happens and you have to keep your cool and persevere.”

What she finds both most fulfilling and challenging about her work is her high level of autonomy. She has her own cases where she works with the FBI, and she directs her own investigations. She enjoys working with her colleagues, whom she describes as “phenomenal.” She loves that she was “immediately entrusted with a lot of work,” and is now in the midst of her first jury trial, with nearly a dozen bench trials under her belt. Lisa also appreciates the balance between work and life that her position allows. She stays late when she wants to, but she does not feel tethered to work at all hours because she controls her own schedule.

With a year of experience behind her, Lisa still expresses amazement at the fact that she spends her days doing something for which she has such passion. During law school, she expected that she’d have to spend at least five years as a district attorney before becoming a federal prosecutor, but instead was able to launch her dream right away. The initial excitement she felt when she got that fateful call shows no signs of wearing off — “I still pinch myself,” she says.
