Spataro claimed that American operatives had snatched the imam, who is known as Abu Omar, and transported him to Egypt, where he was allegedly tortured. But there was no way the United States would extradite its spies, and it appeared that the Italian investigation of the murky practice of extraordinary rendition would go the way of similar cases in this country: nowhere.But Spataro wasn't hampered by the sort of pervasive official secrecy that prevails in the United States, and his team turned up revealing details of the abduction. The more they dug, the more dirt they found. Before long, the investigation blossomed into a full-blown spy scandal, replete with domestic wiretapping and the mysterious death of one of the investigators. By early July, two of Italy's top spymasters were under arrest. We haven't heard much about the story on this side of the Atlantic. (When asked whether he had discussed it at the G8 summit with President Bush, Italy's new Prime Minister Romano Prodi quipped that Bush probably doesn't even know "the initials" of Italy's spy agency, Sismi.) But this is Italy's Watergate. It has already revealed in unprecedented detail the anatomy of an extraordinary rendition. And it raises serious doubts about the Bush administration's "just trust us" insistence that behind the veil of secrecy, espionage is an honest, upstanding business. In February 2003, Abu Omar (whose full name is Hasan Mustafa Osama Nasr) was under surveillance by Italy's special branch police force, the Digos, on suspicion of recruiting terrorists. Walking to mosque one day, he was whisked into a CIA van. The Digos didn't witness the event and wondered why the guy they had been tailing had suddenly disappeared. CIA officials told them that Omar was headed to the Balkans, when in fact he was being interrogated in an Egyptian prison. When they learned of this deception more than a year later, prosecutors in Milan were outraged at the CIA's apparent violation of Italian sovereignty. The Americans had unquestionably strayed a bit outside their jurisdiction. And they'd carried out the rendition with a minimum of subtlety. In the weeks surrounding the abduction, they stayed at fine hotels, including Milan's Principe di Savoia (single room: $588 a night), eventually racking up $158,000 in room charges. The Rolling Stones keep a lower profile when they swing through Milan. The American operatives also used easy-to-tap, unsecure cell phones to coordinate their plans with headquarters in Langley, Va. And when the supposed architect of the mission, CIA Milan Chief Robert Seldon Lady, blew town, he forgot to pack a surveillance photo of Abu Omar. He left it (oops) in his apartment for the Digos to find. The message seemed to be: Not only will we swoop into your country, screw your investigation, and steal your suspect—we're going to do it in broad daylight and leave a trail of clues, just because we can. But that wasn't exactly the message, because the Italian government had given permission for the CIA's mission. When the story first broke, representatives of Silvio Berlusconi's government denied knowing anything about the rendition. But when Spataro's investigators questioned a Sismi operative, he said he had been told "in explicit terms" that the rendition was a joint operation between Sismi and the CIA. Suddenly this was no longer a story about Italian sovereignty. It was a turf battle between different security agencies—the Digos and Sismi—that were both after the same guy. Which explains the peculiar thing that happened next: At the prosecutors' behest, Italian cops started wiretapping Italian spies. It's hard to say which is stranger—that cops would monitor the calls of their own country's spies, or that the spies would be foolish enough to say anything sensitive on an unencrypted line. In Italy prosecutors enjoy a great deal of institutional autonomy, and suspicion that Italian spooks had aided a crime was grounds enough for Spataro's team to start watching the watchers. Wiretapping is a favorite tactic in Italy—police and spies tap 100,000 phones every year—and the prosecutors who had pieced together the CIA's movements by looking at phone records began doing the same with the Sismi brass. Tracing the phone of Marco Mancini, Sismi's No. 2, led them to a penthouse apartment on Via Nazionale, a popular shopping

That is because false information is as capable of causing damage as accurate information.Making the order against Mr Shayler, the judge said that he was satisfied that Mr Shayler had no prospect of success at a civil action trial in relation to the issues connected to the criminal conviction. He made a costs order against Mr Shayler.-__ ___ _ ___ __ ___ _ _ _ __  /-_|-0-\-V-/-\|-|-__|-|-|-/-_| \_-\--_/\-/|-\\-|-_||-V-V-\_-\ |__/_|--//-|_|\_|___|\_A_/|__/  SPY NEWS is OSINT newsletter and discussion list associated to Mario's Cyberspace Station - The Global Intelligence News Portal Since you are receiving and reading documents, news stories,comments and opinions not only from so called (or self-proclaimed) "reliable sources", but also a lot of possible misinformation collectedby Spy News moderator and subscribers and posted to Spy Newsfor OSINT purposes - it should be a serious reason (particularly tojournalists and web publishers) to think twice before using it for theirstory writing, further publishing or forwarding throughout Cyberspace.To unsubscribe:mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]*** FAIR USE NOTICE: This message contains copyrighted material whose use has not been specifically authorized by the copyright owner.

A comprehensive programme on 9/11 begins in September and the students will be given a chance to present their findings then, a University spokesperson said on Monday.Delft's 9/11 investigation was first reported in newspaper 'Trouw'. The Studium Generale office said a lively discussion about the 2001 attacks has developed on the internet, with some arguing that  the atrocity was organised not by al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden but by US intelligence officials.Opinion poll results suggest 45 percent of the American public want a new investigation and 42 percent believe the official investigation involved a cover up. Internet conspiracy debates have even generated an offer of an USD 1 million reward for anyone who can refute the official US government account of the attacks.

In ‘A Call to Honour,’ published this week,   soldier-statesmen Jaswant Singh claims one of India’s top civil servants   was in the pay of the CIA and leaked secrets to the US about India’s   nuclear programme in the early 1990s.In a country where conspiracy theories abound about the   penetration of the establishment by foreign intelligence services, the   book is said to be on course to sell 50,000 copies – 10 times the normal   level of a bestseller in India.The memoirs have sparked furious denials from retired   mandarins, and the country’s prime minister, Manmohan Singh, has asked Mr   Singh to reveal the name of the mole.It is all a far cry from Mr Singh’s days in power.   Friendly with Bill Clinton and an admirer of Charles de Gaulle, he was   seen as a tough nationalist who bargained hard with the Chinese.In a seemingly deft display of public relations, the   former minister has teased journalists with details of the mole’s   identity. He was a civil servant “in such a high position that he was   privy to a lot of information”. Then it was revealed that he was no longer in office.   Next that he lived abroad.Retired intelligence officials say Mr Singh is right. “We   know the Americans had somebody inside. They knew about plans to test   nuclear weapons and stopped us in the early 90s,” said B Raman, who worked   for the Research and Analysis Wing, India’s external espionage agency,   until 1994. “The question is, was the American information from a   paid informant or from an official who liked to talk too much?” During the   1971 war between India and Pakistan that culminated in the independence of   Bangladesh it was claimed the CIA had a spy in the Indian cabinet. In the past few weeks one of India’s former intelligence   officials who ended up working for Microsoft has been arrested, prompting   the departure of a senior US embassy official from Delhi.However, some of Singh’s friends say he would be aghast   to find himself at the centre of a spying scandal. – Guardian Newspapers   LimitedGulf Times Newspaper, 2006  __._,_.___-__ ___ _ ___ __ ___ _ _ _ __   /-_|-0-\-V-/-\|-|-__|-|-|-/-_|  \_-\--_/\-/|-\\-|-_||-V-V-\_-\  |__/_|--//-|_|\_|___|\_A_/|__/   SPY NEWS is OSINT newsletter and discussion list associated to  Mario's Cyberspace Station - The Global Intelligence News Portal Since you are receiving and reading documents, news stories, comments and opinions not only from so called (or self-proclaimed)  "reliable sources", but also a lot of possible misinformation collected by Spy News moderator and subscribers and posted to Spy News for OSINT purposes - it should be a serious reason (particularly to journalists and web publishers) to think twice before using it for their story writing, further publishing or forwarding throughout Cyberspace.

They also demonstrate that US intelligence agencies deliberately refrained from disclosing information about the whereabouts of Adolf Eichmann in order to protect Washington’s allies in the post-war West German government headed by Christian Democratic leader Konrad Adenauer.Eichmann, who had sent millions to their deaths while coordinating the Nazis’ “final solution” campaign to exterminate European Jewry, went into hiding in Buenos Aires after the fall of the Third Reich. Utilizing friendly contacts in the Catholic Church and the Peron government in Argentina, Eichmann was able to reside in the South American country for 10 years under the alias of Ricardo Klement. He was abducted in 1960 by Mossad, Israel’s foreign intelligence agency, put on trial in Israel and executed in 1962.The documents show that the CIA was in possession of Eichmann’s pseudonym two years before the Mossad raid. The CIA received this information in 1958 from the West German government, which learned of Eichmann’s alias in 1952. Both the CIA and the Bonn government chose not to disclose this information to Israel because they were concerned that Eichmann might reveal the identities of Nazi war criminals holding high office in the West German government, particularly Adenauer’s national security adviser Hans Globke.When Eichmann was finally brought to trial, the US government used all available means to protect its West German allies from what he might reveal. According to the declassified documents, the CIA pressured Life magazine into deleting references to Globke in portions of Eichmann’s memoirs that it chose to publish.In addition to the revelations regarding Eichmann, the documents chronicle the CIA’s creation of “stay-behind” intelligence networks in southwestern Germany and Berlin, labeled “Kibitz” and “Pastime,” respectively. The Kibitz ring involved several former SS members. In the early 1950s, the CIA provided these groups with money, communications equipment and ammunition so that they could serve as intelligence assets in the event of a Soviet invasion of West Germany.The CIA documents were reviewed by Timothy Naftali, a historian with the National Archives Interagency Working Group, the government body that oversaw their declassification and release. According to an article published by Naftali, the stay-behind program was dissolved “in the wake of public concerns in West Germany about the resurgence of Neo-Nazi Groups.” Specifically, the Kibitz-15 group, led by an “unreconstructed Nazi,” became a potential source of public embarrassment for the US, as its members were broadly involved in Neo-Nazi activity. [1]The CIA terminated the program by 1955 and arranged for many of its contacts to be resettled in Canada and Australia. According to the documents, Australia provided funds for relocation while the CIA provided its ex-assets with a “resettlement bonus.”The CIA employed Gustav Hilger, a former adviser to Nazi Foreign Minister Joachim von Ribbentrop. As an employee of the German foreign office, Hilger was present at the negotiation of the Stalin-Hitler pact in 1939. The CIA deemed his experience with the USSR sufficiently valuable to free him from incarceration at Fort Meade in Maryland and employ him as an intelligence evaluator in West Germany.In 1948, Hilger moved to the United States and obtained a position at the CIA’s K Street building in Washington as a researcher and expert on the USSR. Hilger eventually left the CIA to work for the West German foreign office.According to a paper analyzing the CIA documents published by Robert Wolfe, a former senior archivist at the US National Archives, “it is beyond dispute that Hilger criminally assisted in the genocide of Italy’s Jews During the roundup of Italian Jews in late 1943, a note signed ‘Hilger’ recorded Ribbentrop’s concurrence that the Italians be asked to intern the Jews in concentration camps in Northern Italy, in lieu of immediate deportation. The SS intended thereby that the Italian Jews and their potential Italian protectors should believe that internment in Italy was the final destination, rather than eventual deportation to the murder mills in Poland to be immediately murdered or gradually worked to death.

Gustavo Pignero, a senior official of the Italian intelligence agency, SISMI, to prosecutors investigating the disappearance of an Egyptian-born imam, Osama Mustafa Hassan Nasr, also known as Abu Omar.Pignero's testimony is the first indication the CIA may have made far more extensive use than previously known of its paramilitary Special Operations Group to seize people suspected of terrorist links and render them without trial to Egypt and other Mideast countries for detention and interrogation.In addition to the CIA list, which Pignero recalled included "certainly more than 10" residents of Milan, Turin and Naples, Pignero said he was told by the then-chief of the CIA's Rome station that similar clandestine abductions were planned for Austria, Belgium and the Netherlands.No unexplained disappearances have been reported in Belgium or the Netherlands. But the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera reported Sunday that Gamal El-Minshawy, an Egyptian living in Austria, vanished in early 2003 from Mecca.Pignero's testimony was excerpted in an Italian arrest warrant issued this month for the former CIA station chief, who CIA sources say is now assigned to the agency's headquarters in Virginia.A Milan court last week asked the Italian justice minister to formally request that the Bush administration extradite the former station chief and two dozen other CIA operatives to Italy to stand trial for Abu Omar's alleged kidnapping.Prosecutors also have charged two senior SISMI officials with aiding the CIA's "unlawful restraint" of Abu Omar.Accusations that SISMI knew of the CIA's plan to snatch Abu Omar, and revelations that the agency was paying reporters to spy and tapping the phones of the politically powerful, has produced a furor in Italy.Pignero's disclosure has refocused prosecutors' attention on Morgan, who disappeared from Vigevano, Italy, near Milan, eight months after Abu Omar allegedly was abducted in early 2003.Pignero didn't say whether Morgan was on the CIA's "black list." But official documents show that Morgan, a regular at the Milan mosque where Abu Omar often preached, was being monitored by Italian police at the time he vanished.Two years ago, the religious chief of that mosque, Arman Ahmed El Hissiny Helmy, told Milan prosecutors he believed Morgan was in the same Egyptian prison as Abu Omar.A former Vigevano prosecutor, Carmen Manfredda, recalled in a telephone interview Friday that an investigation of the Morgan case had been initiated but lapsed.Prosecution sources in Milan said the case was closed after the discovery that Morgan had booked a commercial airline ticket to Egypt, leading prosecutors to believe he had traveled voluntarily.But some sources close to the Abu Omar investigation now question whether the commercial airline booking may have been an attempt to mask Morgan's possible abduction.A key piece of potential evidence is U.S. Federal Aviation Administration records showing that a Gulfstream jet - the same kind the CIA allegedly used to fly Abu Omar to Egypt - left Cairo on Oct. 31, 2003, en route to its home base at Fort Bragg, N.C.The Gulfstream is registered to Braxon Management Services of Great Falls, Mont., which shares the address of a law firm, Church, Harris, Johnson and Williams.An attorney with the firm, who is also listed as Braxton's agent, has not responded to repeated inquiries from the Chicago Tribune over the past year about the nature of Braxton's business.Several aircraft known to have been used by the CIA in other "renditions" are registered to front companies.---© 2006, Chicago Tribune.Visit the Chicago Tribune on the Internet at http://www.chicagotribune.comDistributed by McClatchy-Tribune Information Services.Alessandra Maggiorani in Rome contributed to this report.Click here to find out more!-__ ___ _ ___ __ ___ _ _ _ __  /-_|-0-\-V-/-\|-|-__|-|-|-/-_| \_-\--_/\-/|-\\-|-_||-V-V-\_-\ |__/_|--//-|_|\_|___|\_A_/|__/  SPY NEWS is OSINT newsletter and discussion list associated to Mario's Cyberspace Station -

For two more points he keeps holding up yet onemore charred child Bush Warco victim from the rack of children layed outin his meat wagon. You can have them with clothes on or off, legs ornot, as you prefer at your Nuremberg Cannibal Film Festival aka the CanFestival. Surely you have seen him? You have to appreciate the meatwagon guy, he works so hard trying to please different censorshipconventions. But wait, here's a baby with all the blood burned black andthe genitals cauterized beyond recognition, achieving journalistictastefulness without even needing lovingly applied funeral clothes,bravo, give that man a shiny American coin, that's what we're talkingabout in the free speech capital of the world, tasteful corpse photosfor the good guilty people who pay for the bombs.Ghetto Shia Chihuahas Nip Budweiser hahababawawagentrification...all who read only Bush Warco news say,"What?"

Sometimes the magician's handsare slow, like lately in Lebanon, but usually both hands are invisibleon censored American TV, so nobody notices.Israelis have scaled back their plans for occupation from two hundredfifty to only one new square kilometer, and then withdrawing even fromGolan Heights during negotiations for POW release.And where is Saudi money going in Lebanon? Ask Angry Arab. Saudis callHezbollah "Shia dogs", but the feeling of the Lebanese of all faiths andnone is to lay wreathes at the feet of Hezbollah fighters returning fromarmalite-head-on. The earth should turn backwards for several weeks,just rewind that past the senseless slaughter for Warco profit and Saudimonarch control of OPEC, which is to say, for nothing on the aggressorside.http://angryarab.blogspot.com/2006/07/nasrallahs-new-address.htmlthe propaganda of Saudi tool (former Iranian and Syrian tool), thewell-known feudal warlord, Walid Jumblat...sh-Shira' magazine(Ash-Shira` was a publication for Libyan intelligence, before servingIranian intelligence, and now serves Saudi intelligence). Jumblat raisedthis question: To whom will Nasrallah present the "victory of theresistance?" Nasrallah responded today with a very Lebanese nationalistspeech--even the poetic parts spoke of Lebanon's beauty, of itsmountains, etc. He also was very keen on speaking in terms ofMuslim-Christian unity, invoking the name of Jesus, and speaking of thenotion of "love." Nasrallah, some people in Lebanon say, is at his bestwhen acting as a Lebanese politician against his opponents in Lebanesepolitics. His address was meant to reassure the Lebanese public aboutthe results of this war. Jumblat is nervous, and he is showing it. TheIsraeli calculations, and the calculations of its (direct or indirect)allies in Lebanon was that Hizbullah will come weaker out of this,begging for forgiveness. No signs of that whatever. If anything, thetide of public opinion seems to be swinging in Hizbullah's direction. Iwas astonished that after Nasrallah's talk, AlJazeera interviewed EdmondSa`b (a right-wing sectarian Christian journalist with An-Nahar) and hespoke in emotional and glowing terms in praise of Nasrallah. Jumblat issensing that. Nasrallah's stature is growing in the Arab world andinside. As Sunni columnist Nuhad Mashnuq (who broke with Saudi Arabialast Monday) wrote in As-Safir, it was unprecedented that a picture of aShi`ite cleric (Nasrallah) was posted and raised in Al-Azhar during thelast few weeks. Mashnuq spoke of the miscalculation by SaudiArabia--that explains that sudden announcement of

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Terrance Casey Brennan is the author of numerous comic
book stories, published in the 1970s Warren
anthologies Creepy, Eerie and Vampirella.

In the 1980s, Brennan campaigned to have depictions of
smoking in comics banned, which led then-Gov. Bill
Clinton of Arkansas to issue a proclamation
designating January 1990 as T. Casey Brennan Month.

In his prose work since the early 1990s, Brennan also
claims to have shot John F. Kennedy during his stint
as a victim of the CIA's MK-ULTRA program.

He lives in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
