Great Disinformation Campaigns From History That Live On and Prosper Today
Nazis
The USSR’s KGB of days gone by had just as great, if not a greater,
success, albeit less benign. Following World War II, when the atrocities of
the Nazi regime came to light, it surfaced just how similar the governments
of the National Socialist German Workers’ Party and the Union of Soviet
Socialist Republics (USSR) were to each other. This was both a problem
for the USSR, which had just occupied much of Eastern Europe, but also
distasteful, since the Nazi and USSR leftist dictatorships had been
implacable enemies.
As part of the early Cold War efforts, the CIA jumped into the fray and
mounted a large information campaign, pointing out the truth of the
similarities. Jews who had survived the Holocaust under the Nazis or Jews
who had survived the purges of the USSR’s Joseph Stalin were integral to
the information campaign. Note that this is correctly classified as a
clandestine information campaign and not a propaganda campaign, since
the information was in fact true.
This effort was destroyed by The New York Times, who made public the
CIA backing. The source of the information was almost certainly the USSR,
who may have leaked the information to The New York Times or passed it
through some other means.
At the same time, the Soviet Union put a propaganda countermeasures
campaign in place, painting the Nazi regime as a fascist “conservative”
movement and, therefore, not a socialist movement at all. This not only
survives as a widespread false concept today, but also, because of its
success as propaganda, it has been built upon using a variation on the
central theme.
A quote often attributed to UK wartime Prime Minister Winston Churchill
(though probably not said by him) is: “The fascists of the future will be
called anti-fascists.” This has come to fruition, as a number of today’s
socialist movements have adopted many of the early Nazi tactics used in
their rise to power.
One need look no further than today’s Antifa (Anti-Fascist) organizations
for a perfect example.
Just like the “brown shirts” used by Hitler to help him rise to power, they
march in the streets, wear a uniform (black hoods), attempt to stifle other
opinions, use physical intimidation, and openly espouse the use of violence
for political action. These were precisely the type of activities used by the
Nazi brown shirts to help Hitler rise to power. These extreme tactics and
violence are both tacitly and openly supported by the left in the United
States.
This past October, Antifa held large demonstrations in the famously left-
wing Portland, Oregon, where they were filmed verbally attacking an elderly
man in his vehicle and abusing an older wheelchair-bound woman, among
many other similar acts. Meanwhile, police stood by and took no action as
they watched innocent people being abused.
This association or cooperation seems to run even to the highest levels
within the Democratic Party, with the son of Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine being
widely reported to be affiliated with Antifa, following his arrest after a
protest involving the group. Kaine was the Democratic vice-presidential
running mate of presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
Leftist philosophy brought us Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, Chairman Mao, and
Saddam Hussein, to name a few, and continues to inflict most of the
violence on the world that has killed many millions.
