Who was Bruce Springsteen in his past life? We think we can shock you with our research and whom we think he has been!
Bruce is just one of 82 connections we have made in our reincarnation research in the last 3 years.
It's not a hoax, it's not just for fun, we take it very seriously, and we believe it's the truth, even though we can not claim to know it's the truth. The connections speak for themselves, and you are free to examine and judge for yourself it's credibility. We don't just go by look-alikes, we also compare talents and personality, because we think that's also something which gets inherited life by life.

Very Intresting |

Thats an very intresting page I say.
I viewed it for awhile searching for different persons,
and found out some cool connections
Though I am sceptical and far too scientific for this kind of
stuff. I still think the similarities has to do with Genes/DNA.
But thats just my opinion.
I really think there are different races, If you walk out on the
street and look at a persons face you will notice some things
that are there on people you know, or have seen before.
I see it all the time. People are not really unique. <-- im gonna get my ass kicked for that one...
Or maybe im just getting to old and grey  |

GLADIO: THE SECRET U.S. WAR TO SUBVERT ITALIAN DEMOCRACY
by Arthur E. Rowse
*************************************
This JanuarySilvio Berlusconi rode onto the turbulent Italian political scene on a white charger. Voters had become
disenchanted with long-time centrist leaders who were mired in massive corruption scandals. With crucial
parliamentary elections only two months away and the likelihood that the left would win power for the first time since
World War II*1 the billionaire businessman entered the fray with a slate of right-wing candidates who had never held
office. Helped by voter disgust and his own vast media and industrial holdingsBerlusconi’s coalition won bigaverting
the anticipated leftist victory. His win lifted the rightincluding the neo-fasciststo new postwar heights. *2 Real change
seemed unlikelyhoweveras Berlusconi repackaged the old politics with new names and slogans. Berlusconi himself
was weaned on the system and owed much of his success to Bettino Craxia former Socialist prime minister who went
on trial for corruption the day after the March election. It wasn’t long before the right’s clean hands were upstaged by
arms raised in fascist salutes and cries of Il Duce.
While Berlusconi’s rapid ascent took most observers by surprisethe stage was set for it by nearly 50 years of U.S.
interference in Italian politics. In the name of fighting communismthe U.S. helped generate a level of political turmoil
that sometimes approached civil war. U.S. agents and their Italian surrogates took control of key government agencies
at times reducing Italian democracy to little more than a proving ground for the CIA’s and the White House’s
aggressive tactics. The undercover campaignknown as Gladiofor a double-edged Roman swordwas officially
acknowledged for the first time in 1990when it was finally closed down.
THE DIMENSIONS OF GLADIO
The Italian people had received many signs over the years that the centrist parties the Christian Democrats and the
Socialists were promoted and to some degree controlled by Washington. But it was only when the Italian government
officially admitted it in 1990 that the ruling coalition began to crumbleready to be picked apart two years later by
corruption scandals. The startling story of Gladiowhich continues to make headlines in Europehas barely been
mentioned in the U.S.where many of its darkest chapters remain secret.
The program in Italy was aimed at the threat that communists might mount an insurrection or gain a share of political
power through the ballot box. An insurrection was unlikelyhoweversince nearly all posts in the bureaucracy were
filled after the war by solidly anticommunist veterans of Mussolini’s forceswith Allied approval.
During the warmost Americans considered themselves heroes who freed Western Europe from its brutal Nazi and
fascist rulers. It wasn’t long after the American landings on Italian soilhoweverthat the white hats got sullied. While
some OSS agents worked with antifascists to help lay the basis for Italian democracymany of those higher up the
ladder conspired with backers of Mussolini or the former king to impede it. *3
Although many European intelligence agencies have admitted participatingthe CIA has denied any connection with
Gladio. But enough information has emerged to show that the CIA sponsored and financed a large portion of the
terrorism and disruption that plagued Italy for nearly half a century. Among other thingsthe U.S. government:
Forged secret alliances with the Mafia and right-wing elements of the Vatican to prevent the left from playing any
role in government;
Recruited Mussolini’s ex-police into paramilitary bands secretly financed and trained by the CIAostensibly to fight
Sovietsbut really to conduct terror attacks blamed on the left;
Employed the gamut of psychological warfare tacticsincluding paying millions in slush funds to political parties
journalistsand other influential contacts to tilt parliamentary elections against the left;
Created a secret service and a parallel government structure linked to the CIA whose assets attempted several times
to overthrow the elected government; and
Targeted Prime Minister Aldo Morowho was later kidnapped and murdered under mysterious circumstances after
offering to bring communists into the Cabinet.
THE SECRET NATO COVER
@TEMP = The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) provided international cover for Washington’s postwar
operations in Italy. A secret clause in the initial NATO agreement in 1949 required that before a nation could joinit
must have already established a national security authority to fight communism through clandestine citizen cadres.
This Stay Behind clause grew out of a secret committee set up at U.S. insistence in the Atlantic Pactthe forerunner of
NATO. Each NATO member was also required to send delegates to semiannual meetings on the subject. *4
U.S. authority for such moves flowed in a steady stream of presidential directives transmitted through the National
Security Council (NSC). In December 1950the council gave the armed forces carte blanche to use appropriate military
force even if the communists merely gain participation in government by legal means or threaten to achieve control...or
the government ceases to evidence a determination to oppose communist internal or external threats. *5
The CIA helped the Italian police set up secret squadrons staffed in many cases with veterans of Mussolini’s secret
police. *6 The squadrons were trained for intensive espionage and counter-espionageagainst communists and other
perceived enemies of the status quo. The plan to use exceptional means was patterned after the highly militarized
French intelligence servicethe Suret Nationalewhich was reportedly so tough on communists that many fled to other
countries. *7
The newly organized intelligence agencySIFARbegan operations in September 1949under the supervision of an
undercover AmericanCarmel Offienicknamed godfather by the Italians. *8 Interior Minister Mario Scelba headed
the operation. At the same timeScelba was directing a brutal repressionmurdering hundreds of workers and peasants
who sought improved conditions after the war. *9
OPERATION DEMAGNETIZE
With the Italian secret service under controlthe Americans then expanded it under the name Operation Demagnetize
and tied it to an existing network of cadre in northern Italy. In 1951the Italian secret service formally agreed to set up
a clandestine organization within the military to coordinate with the northern cadres. In 1952SIFAR received secret
orders from Washington to adopt a series of politicalparamilitary and psychological operations destined to diminish the
power of the Italian Communist Partyits material resourcesand its influence on government. This priority objective
must be attained by all means. 10
Operation Demagnetize marked the institutional hardening of Gladio. A State Department historian characterized it as
the strategy of stabilization*11 although it could be more accurately described as one of destabilization. From the
startthe offensive was secretly directed and funded by the U.S. government. In 1956the arrangement was formalized
in a written agreementusing the name Gladio for the first time. According to 1956 documents uncovered in Italy in
1990Gladio was divided into independent cells coordinated from a CIA camp in Sardinia. These special forces included
40 main groups. Ten specialized in sabotagesix each in espionagepropagandaevasion and escape tacticsand 12 in
guerrilla activities. Another division handled the training of agents and commandos. These special forces had access to
underground arms cacheswhich included hand gunsgrenadeshigh-tech explosivesdaggers60mortars
57-millimeter machine guns and precision rifles. *12
In 1956Gen. Giovanni De Lorenzo was named to head SIFAR on the recommendation of U.S. Ambassador Claire
Boothe Lucethe avidly anticommunist wife of the publisher of Time magazine. *13 A key player in Gladio was now in
place. In 1962the CIA helped place De Lorenzo at the head of the national police (carabinieri)while he retained
effective control of the secret service.
The general brought with him 17 lieutenants to begin purging insufficiently right-wing officers. It was the first step to a
right-wing coup attemptwith U.S. military attach Vernon Walters in the vanguard. In a memo to De Lorenzo the same
yearWalters suggested types of intervention aimed at provoking a national crisisincluding blocking a center-left
coalitioncreating schisms among the socialistsand funding forces favorable to the status quo.14
Meanwhileaccording to CIA files found in Rome in 1984CIA station chief William Harvey began to recruit action
teams based on a list of 20men capable of throwing bombsconducting attacksand accompanying these actions with
indispensable propaganda. 15 These teams had a chance to practice their skills in 1963 as part of an anti-union
offensive. U.S.-trained gladiators dressed as police and civilians attacked construction workers peacefully demonstrating
in Romeleaving some 200 wounded and a large section of the city in shambles. The link to Gladio was made in later
testimony by a former general in the secret service.16
SIFAR Lt. Col. Renzo Rocca was also training a civil militia composed of ex-soldiersparachutists and members of
Junio Valerio Black Prince Borghese’s paramilitary organizationDecima MAS (Tenth Torpedo Boat Squadron)for the
pending coup.17 President Antonio Segni reportedly knew of the planwhich was to conclude with the assassination of
Prime Minister Aldo Morounder fire for not being tough enough with the communists.18
The long-planned takeoverknown later as Plan Solofizzled in March 1964when the key carabinieri involved
remained in their barracks. As a subsequent inquiry moved to question Rocca about the coup attempthe apparently
killed himselfpossibly to fulfill Gladio’s oath of silence. After officials determined that state secrets were involved
three hamstrung inquiries failed to determine the guilty parties.19
THE STRATEGY OF TENSION
Despite the failure of Plan Solothe CIA and the Italian right had largely succeeded in creating the clandestine
structures envisioned in Operation Demagnetize. Now the plotters turned their attention to a renewed offensive against
the left.
To win intellectual supportthe secret services set up a conference in Rome at the luxurious Parco dei Principi hotel in
May 1965for a study of revolutionary war. The choice of words was inadvertently revealingsince the conveners and
invited participants were planning a real revolutionnot just warning of an imaginary communist takeover. The
meeting was essentially a reunion of fascistsright-wing journalistsand military personnel. The strategy of tension
that emerged was designed to disrupt normality with terror attacks in order to create chaos and provoke a frightened
public into accepting still more authoritarian government. *20
Several graduates of this exercise had long records of anticommunist actions and would later be implicated in some of
Italy’s worst massacres. One was journalist and secret agent Guido Giannettini. Four years earlierhe had conducted a
seminar at the U.S. Naval Academy on The Techniques and Prospects of a Coup d’Etat in Europe. Another was notorious
fascist Stefano Delle Chiaiewho had reportedly been recruited as a secret agent in 1960. He had organized his own
armed band known as Avanguardia Nationale (AN)whose members had begun training in terror tactics in preparation
for Plan Solo. *21
General De Lorenzowhose SIFAR had now become SIDsoon enlisted these and other confidants in a new Gladio
project. They planned to create a secret parallel force alongside sensitive government offices to neutralize subversive
elements not yet purified. Known as the Parallel SIDits tentacles reached into nearly every key institution of the
Italian state. Gen.Vito Miceliwho later headed SIDsaid he set up the separate structure at the request of the
Americans and NATO. 22
FRATERNAL BONDS
Two ancientmysteriousinternational fraternities kept the loosely-linked Gladio programs from flying apart. The
Knights of Malta played a formative role after the war (see box)but the order of Freemasonry and its most notorious
lodge in Italyknown as Propaganda Due (pronounced doo-ay )or P-2was far more influential. In the late 1960sits
Most Venerable Master was Licio Gellia Knight of Malta who fought for Franco with Mussolini’s Black Shirts. At the
end of World War IIGelli faced execution by Italian partisans for his Nazi collaborationbut escaped by joining the
U.S. Army Counter Intelligence Corps. *23 In the 1950she was recruited by SIFAR.
After some years of self-imposed exile in Argentine fascist circles24he saw his calling in Italy as a Mason. Quickly
rising to its top posthe began fraternizing in 1969 with Gen. Alexander Haigthen assistant to Henry Kissinger
President Nixon’s national security chief. Gelli became the main intermediary between the CIA and SID’s De Lorenzo
also a Mason and Knight. Gelli’s first order from the White House was reportedly to recruit 400 more top Italian and
NATO officials.25
To help ferret out dissidentsGelli and De Lorenzo began compiling personal dossiers on thousands of peopleincluding
legislators and clerics. *26 Within a few yearsscandal erupted when an inquiry found 1570such files in SIDall
available to the Ministers of Defense and Interior. *27 Parliament ordered 340files burnedbut by then the CIA had
obtained duplicates for its archives. *28
Provocateurs on the Right
In 1968the Americans started formal commando training for the gladiators at the clandestine Sardinian NATO base.
Within a few years40graduates had been placed in strategic posts. At least 139 arms cachesincluding some at
carabinieri barrackswere at their disposal. *29 To induce young men to join such a risky venturethe CIA paid high
salaries and promised that if they were killedtheir children would be educated at U.S. expense. *30
Tensions began to reach critical mass that same year. While dissidents took to the streets all over the worldin Italy
takeovers of universities and strikes for higher wages and pensions were overshadowed by a series of bloody political
crimes. The number of terrorist acts reached 147 in 1968rising to 398 the next yearand to an incredible peak of 2498
in 1978 before tapering offlargely because of a new law encouraging informers ( penitenti ). *31 Until 1974the
indiscriminate bombers of the right constituted the main force behind political violence.
The first major explosion occurred in 1969 in Milan’s Piazza Fontana; it killed 18 people and injured 90. In this and
numerous other massacresanarchists proved handy scapegoats for fascist provocateurs seeking to blame the left.
Responding to a phone tip after the Milan massacrepolice arrested 150 alleged anarchists and even put some on trial.
But two years laternew evidence led to the indictment of several neofascists and SID officers. Three innocent
anarchists were convictedbut later absolvedwhile those responsible for the attack emerged unpunished by Italian
justice. *32
Conclusive Gladio links to political violence were found after a plane exploded in flight near Venice in November 1973.
Venetian judge Carlo Mastelloni determined that the Argo-16 aircraft was used to shuttle trainees and munitions
between the U.S. base in Sardinia and Gladio sites in northeast Italy.33 The apogee of right-wing terror came in 1974
with two massacres. Onea bombing at an antifascist rally in Bresciakilled eight and injured 102. The other was an
explosion on the Italicus train near Bolognakilling 12 and wounding 105. At this pointPresident Giovanni Leonewith
little exaggerationsummed up the situation: With 100armed civilians running aroundas usualI’m president of
shit. *34
At Bresciathe initial call to police also blamed anarchistsbut the malefactor later turned out to be a secret agent in
the Parallel SID. *35 A similar connection was also alleged in the Italicus case. Two fascists who were eventually
convicted were members of a clandestine police group called the Black Dragonsaccording to the left-wing paperLotta
Continua. *36 Their sentences were also overturned. Although in these and other casesmany leftists were arrested
and triedfascists or neofascists were often the culpritsin league with Gladio groups and the Italian secret services.
Reflecting the degree to which these forces controlled the government through the Parallel SIDnearly all the rightists
implicated in these atrocities were later freed.
By 1974right-wing terror began to be answered by the armed leftwhich favored carefully targeted hit-and-run attacks
over the right’s indiscriminate bombings. For the next six yearsleftist militantsespecially the Red Brigades
responded with a vengeanceaccounting for far more acts of political violence than the right. *37 For several years
Italy plunged into a virtual civil war.
PLOTTING COUPS D’ETAT
Meanwhilegroups of right-wingers were busy planning more takeovers of the elected governmentwith the active
encouragement of U.S. officials. A seminal document was the 1970 132-page order on stability operations in host
countriespublished as Supplement B of the U.S. Army’s Field Manual 30-31. Taking its cue from earlier NSC and CIA
papersthe manual explained that if a country is not sufficiently anticommunistserious attention must be given to
possible modifications of the structure. If that country does not react with adequate vigorthe document continues
groups acting under U.S. Army intelligence control should be used to launch violent or nonviolent actions according to
the nature of the case. *38
With such incendiary suggestions and thousands of U.S.-trained guerrillas readythe fascists again attempted to take
over the government by force in 1970. This timethe instigator was the Black Prince Borghese. Fifty men under the
command of Stefano Delle Chiaie seized the Interior Ministry in Rome after being let in at night by an aide to political
police head Federico D’Amato. But the operation was aborted when Borghese received a mysterious phone call later
attributed to General Vito Micelithe military intelligence chief. The plotters were not arrested; insteadthey left with
180 stolen machine guns. *39
News of the attack remained secret until an informer tipped the press three months later. By thenthe culprits had
escaped to Spain. Although the ringleaders were convicted in 1975the verdict was overturned on appeal. All but one of
the machine guns were returned earlier. *40
It was in this atmosphere that the U.S. decided to make another all-out effort to block the communists from gaining
strength in the 1972 elections. According to the Pike Reportthe CIA disbursed $10 million to 21 candidatesmostly
Christian Democrats. *41 That amount did not include $8000that Ambassador Graham Martingoing around the
CIAobtained through Henry Kissinger at the White House for General Miceli. *42 Miceli would later face charges for
the Borghese coup attempt butfitting the patternhe was cleared.
Police foiled another attempted coup that same year. They found hit lists and other documents exposing some 20
subversive groups forming the Parallel SID structure. Roberto Cavallaroa fascist trade unionistwas implicatedas
were highly placed generalswho said they got approval from NATO and U.S. officials. In later testimonyCavallaro said
the group was set up to restore order after any trouble arose. When these troubles do not erupt [by themselves]he
saidthey are contrived by the far right. Gen. Miceli was arrestedbut the courts eventually freed himdeclaring that
there had been no insurrection. *43
Still another right-wing attempt to overthrow the government was set for 1974reportedly with the imprimatur of both
the CIA and NATO. Its leader was Edgardo Sognoone of Italy’s most decorated resistance fighterswho had formed a
Gladio-style group after the war. Sognowho had gained many influential American friends while working at the Italian
embassy in Washington during the 1960swas later arrestedbut hetoowas eventually cleared. *44
GLADIO UNRAVELS
A triple murder at Peteano near Venice in May 1972 turned out to be pivotal in exposing Gladio. The crime occurred
when three carabinieriin response to an anonymous phone callwent to check out a suspicious car. When one of them
opened the hoodall three were blown to bits by a boobytrap bomb. *45 An anonymous call two days later implicated the
Red Brigadesthe most active of the left’s revolutionary groups. The police immediately rounded up 200 alleged
communiststhieves and pimps for questioningbut no charges were brought. Ten years latera courageous Venetian
magistrateFelice Cassonreopened the long-dormant case only to learn that there had been no police investigation at
the scene. Despite receiving a false analysis from a secret service bomb expert and confronting numerous obstructions
and delaysthe judge traced the explosives to a militant outfit called New Order and to one of its active members
Vincenzo Vinciguerra. He promptly confessed and was sentenced to lifethe only right-wing bomber ever locked up. *46
Vinciguerra refused to implicate othersbut described the coverup:
"The carabinierithe Ministry of Interiorthe Customs and Excise policethe civilian
and military secret services all knew the truth behind the attackthat I was
responsible and all this within 20 days. So they decidedfor totally political reasons
to cover it up. *47"
As for his motivethe fascist true believer Vinciguerra said his misdeed was an act of revolt against the manipulation of
neofascism since 1945 by the whole Gladio-based parallel structure. *48
Casson eventually found enough incriminating evidence to implicate the highest officials of the land. In what was the
first such request to an Italian presidentCasson demanded explanations from President Francesco Cossiga. But Casson
didn’t stop there; he also demanded that other officials come clean. In October 1990under pressure from Casson
Prime Minister Giulio Andreotti ended 30 years of denials and described Gladio in detail. He added that all prime
ministers had been aware of Gladiothough some later denied it. *49
SuddenlyItalians saw clues to many mysteriesincluding the unexplained death of Pope John Paul I in 1978. Author
David Yallop lists Gelli as a suspect in that casesaying that hefor all practical purposesran Italy at the time. *50
MEMENTO MORO
Perhaps the most shocking political crime of the 1970s was the kidnapping and murder of Prime Minister Aldo Moro
and five of his aides in 1978. The abduction occurred as Moro was on his way to submit a plan to strengthen Italian
political stability by bringing communists into the government.
Earlier versions of the plan had sent U.S. officials into a tizzy. Four years before his deathon a visit to the U.S. as
foreign ministerMoro was reportedly read the riot act by Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and later by an unnamed
intelligence official. In testimony during the inquiry into his murderMoro’s widow summed up their ominous words:
You must abandon your policy of bringing all the political forces in your country into direct collaboration...or you will
pay dearly for it. *51
Moro was so shaken by the threatsaccording to an aidethat he became ill the next day and cut short his U.S. visit
saying he was through with politics. *52 But U.S. pressure continued; Senator Henry Jackson (D-Wash.) issued a
similar warning two years later in an interview in Italy. *53 Shortly before his kidnappingMoro wrote an article
replying to his U.S. criticsbut decided not to publish it. *54
While being held captive for 55 daysMoro pleaded repeatedly with his fellow Christian Democrats to accept a ransom
offer to exchange imprisoned Red Brigade members for his freedom. But they refusedto the delight of Allied officials
who wanted the Italians to play hardball. In a letter found laterMoro predicted: My death will fall like a curse on all
Christian Democratsand it will initiate a disastrous and unstoppable collapse of all the party apparatus. *55
During Moro’s captivitypolice unbelievably claimed to have questioned millions of people and searched thousands of
dwellings. But the initial judge investigating the caseLuciano Infelisisaid he had no police at his disposal. I ran the
investigation with a single typistwithout even a telephone in the room. He added that he received no useful
information from the secret services during the time. *56 Other investigating magistrates suggested in 1985 that one
reason for the inaction was that all the key officers involved were members of P-2 and were therefore acting at the
behest of Gelli and the CIA. *57
Although the government eventually arrested and convicted several Red Brigade membersmany in the press and
parliament continue to ask whether SID arranged the kidnapping after receiving orders from higher up. Suspicions
naturally turned toward the U.S.particularly Henry Kissingerthough he denied any role in the crime. In Gladio and
the MafiaWashington had the perfect apparatus for doing such a deed without leaving a trace.
PENETRATING THE RED BRIGADES
That the Red Brigades had been thoroughly infiltrated for years by both the CIA and the Italian secret services is no
longer contested. The purpose of the operation was to encourage violence from extremist sectors of the left in order to
discredit the left as a whole. The Red Brigades were a perfect foil. With unflinching radicalismthey considered the
Italian Communist Party too moderate and Moro’s opening too compromising.
The Red Brigades worked closely with the Hyperion Language School in Pariswith some members not realizing it had
CIA ties. The school had been founded by three pseudo-revolutionary Italiansone of whomCorrado Simionihad
worked for the CIA at Radio Free Europe. *58 AnotherDuccio Beriohas admitted passing information about Italian
leftist groups to SID. *59 Hyperion opened an office in Italy shortly before the kidnapping and closed it a few months
later. An Italian police report said Hyperion may be the most important CIA office in Europe. *60 Mario Morettione of
those who handled arms deals and the Paris connection for the Red Brigadesmanaged to avoid arrest in the Moro case
for three years even though he personally handled the kidnapping. *61
Venice magistrate Carlo Mastelloni concluded in 1984 that the Red Brigades had for years received arms from the PLO.
*62 Mastelloni wrote that the de facto secret service level accord between the USA and the PLO was considered relevant
to the present investigation into the ... relationship between the Red Brigades organization and the PLO. *63 One
Gladio scholarPhillip Willanconcludes that the arms deal between the PLO and the Red Brigades formed part of the
secret accord between the PLO and the CIA. *64 His research indicates that the alleged deal between the CIA and the
PLO occurred in 1976a year after the U.S. promised Israel that it would have no political contacts with the PLO.
At the time of the Moro kidnappingseveral leaders of the Brigades were in prisonhaving been turned in by a double
agent after they kidnapped a judge. According to journalist Gianni Ciprianione of those arrested was carrying phone
numbers and personal notes leading to a high official of SIDwho had boasted openly of having agents inside the Red
Brigades. Other intriguing finds included the discovery in the Brigade offices of a printing press which had previously
belonged to SID and ballistics tests showing more than half of the 92 bullets at the kidnapping scene were similar to
those in Gladio stocks. *65
Several people have noted the unlikelihood of the Red Brigades pulling off such a smoothmilitary-style kidnapping in
the center of Rome. Alberto Franceschinia jailed member of the BrigadessaidI never thought my comrades outside
had the capacity to carry out a complex military operation. ... We remembered ourselves as an organization formed by
inexperienced young lads. *66 Two days after the crimeone secret service officer told the press that the perpetrators
appeared to have had special commando training. *67
When letters written by Moro were found later in a Red Brigades site in Milaninvestigators hoped they would reveal
key evidence. But Francesco Biscioniwho studied Moro’s responses to his captors’ questionsconcluded that important
sections had been excised when they were transcribed. Nonethelessin one uncensored passageMoro worried about how
Andreotti’s smooth relationships with his colleagues of the CIA would affect his fate. *68
The two people with the most knowledge of Moro’s letters were murdered. The Carabiniere general in charge of
anti-terrorismCarlo Alberto Della Chiesawas transferred to Sicily and killed Mafia-style in 1982a few months after
raising questions about the missing letters. *69 Maverick journalist Mino Pecorelli was assassinated on a Rome street
in 1979 just a month after reporting that he had obtained a list of 56 fascists betrayed to the police by Gelli. *70 Thomas
Buscettaa Mafia informer under witness protection in the U.S.accused Andreotti of ordering both killings for fear of
being exposed. *71 But an inquiry by his political peers last year found no reason to prosecute the prime minister.
Della Chiesa and Pecorelli were only two of numerous witnesses and potential witnesses murdered before they could be
questioned by judges untainted by links to Gladio. *72 President Cossigathe interior minister when Moro diedtold
BBC: Aldo Moro’s death still weighs heavily on the Christian Democrats as does the decision I came towhich turned
my hair whiteto practically sacrifice Moro to save the Republic. *73
THE BOLOGNA TRAIN STATION BOMBING
A huge explosion at the Bologna train station two years after Moro’s death may have whitened the hair of many Italians
not just for the grisly toll of 85 killed and more than 200 injured but for the official inaction that followed. Although the
investigating magistrates suspected neofasciststhey were unable to issue credible arrest warrants for more than two
years because of false data from the secret services. By that timeall but one of the five chief suspectstwo of whom
had ties to SIDhad skipped the country. *74 The T4 explosive found at the scene matched the Gladio material used in
BresciaPeteano and other bombingsaccording to expert testimony before Judge Mastelloni. *75
In the trialthe judges cited the strategy of tension and its ties to foreign powers. They also found the secret military
and civilian structure tied into neofascist groupsP-2and the secret services. *76 In shortthey found the CIA and
Gladio.
But their efforts to exact justice for the Bologna bombing came to nothing whenin 1990the court of appeals acquitted
all the alleged brains. P-2 head Gelli went freeas did two secret service chiefs whose perjury convictions were
overturned. Four gladiators convicted of participating in an armed group also won appeals. That left Peteano as the only
major bombing case with a conviction of the actual bomberthanks to Vinciguerra’s confession.
The sorry judicial record in these monstrous crimes showed how completely the Gladio network enveloped the army
policesecret services and the top courts. Thanks to P-2with its 963 well-placed brothers*77 the collusion also
extended into the top levels of media and business.
FRUITS OF GLADIO
By the early 1980showevercourt data revealed enough CIA fingerprints to provoke strong anti-U.S. sentiment. In
1981the offices of three U.S. firms in Rome were bombed. In 1982the Red Brigades kidnapped James L. Doziera
U.S. general attached to NATOcalling him a Yankee hangman. *78 He was freed after five weeks by police
commandosreportedly with the help of the CIA’s Mafia connections. *79 But damage to the U.S. image has been
remarkably constrained considering what the U.S. did to Italian society and government for 50 years in the name of
anticommunism.
Moro’s final prediction came true. Instead of bolstering the center partiesGladiohelped by the corruption scandals
destroyed them. Instead of destroying the leftistsGladio revelations helped them win control of major cities while
retaining one-third of parliament. By the early 1980sthe Red Brigades were wiped outbut the major sources of
right-wing terrorism the Mafia and the neofascists remained active.80
The end results lead some to question the whole rationale of U.S. involvement in Italyparticularly in regard to the
communist menace. According to Phillip Willanwho wrote the definitive book on Italian terrorism:
"The U.S. has consistently refused to recognize the Italian Communist Party’s
increasingly wholehearted commitment to the principles of Western democracy and
its validity as an alternative to the generally corrupt and incompetent political
parties that have governed Italy since the war. Had it done somuch of the
bloodshed resulting from the strategy of tension might have been avoided. *81"
Willan goes on to ask whether U.S. and Italian intelligence officials may have deliberately over-emphasized the
communist threat in order to give themselves greater power and greater leeway for their own maneuvers. *82
THE LESSONS OF GLADIO
As long as the U.S. public remains ignorant of this dark chapter in U.S. foreign relationsthe agencies responsible for it
will face little pressure to correct their ways. The end of the Cold War brought wholesale changes in other nationsbut
it changed little in Washington. In an ironic twistconfessed CIA mole Aldrich Ames has raised the basic question of
whether the U.S. needs tens of thousands of agents working around the world primarily in and against friendly
countries. The U.S.he addsstill awaits a real national debate on the means and ends and costs of our national security
policies. *83
The new government in Italy touts itself as a revolution of the disenfranchiseda clean break from the past. But the
fascists are back and gaining ground. The anti-Mafia party has been rejectedand the big cartels have tightened their
grip on the economy. With P-2 brother Berlusconi continuing to trade on the Cold War fear of communiststhe Gladio
perpetrators still unpunishedand experts in Washington raising fears of more terrorism*84 it looks like business as
usual in Italy.
*************************
Gladio’s Roots
The policies that would evolve into Gladio began nduring World War IIwhen U.S. anticommunist nphobias combined
with geopolitical fears of a victorious USSR to create a holy war against the left. An ends justify the means atmosphere
within the U.S. government and particularly within the Office of Strategic Services (OSS)fostered the creation of Stay
Behind programs throughout Western Europeostensibly as the first line of defense in case the Soviets invaded.
But the main worry was internal. The Americans’ great fear for Italy was that communist partisans fighting in the
north would join with organized labor to bring the left to power. The OSS and its successors were apparently prepared to
use any measures to forestall that eventincluding political assassinationterrorismand alliances with organized
crime. According to one OSS memo to Washingtonthe U.S. seemed to support a monarchist plan to use fascist killers
to commit acts of terror and blame the left. *1 U.S. involvement in Italian politics began in 1942when the OSS
successfully pressured the Justice Department to release imprisoned mobster Charles Lucky Luciano. In return for
early freedomLuciano agreed to make contacts with Mafia pals to ease the way for the U.S. invasion of Sicily in 1943.2
The Luciano deal forged a long-standing alliance between the U.S. and the international Cosa Nostra. It also set a
pattern of cooperation between U.S. intelligence agencies and international criminal organizations involved in drugs and
arms traffic. The deal’s godfather was Earl BrennanOSS chief for Italy. Before the warhe had served in the U.S.
Embassyusing his diplomatic cover to establish contacts with Mussolini’s secret police and leading fascists. *3
The Catholic Church also cooperated. U.S. ties to the Vatican were already substantial; one of the strongest links was a
secret fraternitythe Rome-based Sovereign Military Order of Maltawhich dates back to the First Crusade. OSS head
William Wild Bill Donovan was a member. So were other top U.S. officialsincluding Myron TaylorU.S. envoy to the
Vatican from 1939 to 1950and William Caseyan OSS operative who rose to CIA chief under Reagan. OSS Italy chief
Brennan had contacts as early as 1942 with Vatican Under-Secretary of State Gian Battista Montiniwho became Pope
Paul VI in 1963.4
Among the notable OSS operatives was James Jesus Angletonthe legendaryparanoidfuture CIA
counter-intelligence chief. Angleton built on family and business connections in Italy to lay the basis of Gladio by
forming and financing a clandestine network of right-wing Italians who shared his fierce gung-ho style. *5 The
paramilitary groups were filled with devout anticommunists ready to wage war on the left. He also helped notorious
Nazi/fascist mass-murderers such as Junio Valerio Black Prince Borghese elude justice at war’s end. *6
U.S. officials were worried that the communists and socialists would join forces after the fighting. The communist
takeover in Czechoslovakia in 1948 added to their fears. As a resultthe U.S. cooked up a variety of plans to
manipulate Italian politics. Angletonwho by late 1948 had been promoted to special assistant to CIA director Admiral
Roscoe Hillenkoetterused the Vatican’s 200Civic Committees to conduct psychological warfare against communist
influencesparticularly in the unions. *7
The newly formed National Security Council (NSC) also joined the fray: If the Communist Party wins the [1948]
electionthe NSC advisedsuch aggression should immediately be countered by steps to extend the strategic disposition
of U.S. armed forces in Italy. *8 The Communists did not win that pivotal election (nor any subsequent ones). But that
didn’t stop the U.S. from trying to destroy the left. The total cost to American taxpayers for such activities and various
aid programs was $4 billion from the end of the war to 1953. *9 And that was just the beginning of the U.S. assault on
Italian sovereignty. |

More fun from the net:

UFOs? Secret Agents? On the Net, Conspiracy Theories Abound
Laurent Belsie, Staff writer of The Christian Science Monitor
ST. LOUIS -- So you heard the one about British Intelligence doing away with Princess Di. And, yes, Ted Turner gave the United Nations a billion bucks to save on taxes or bolster the New World Order. But did you know that:
(TOM BROWN - STAFF)
The United States and Britain are covering up Iraq's use of chemical and biological weapons during the Gulf War to test their effects on soldiers?
The Rothschilds control the Federal Reserve?
UFOs don't carry extraterrestrials but people who live under the sea? (Aquaterrestrials, sort of.)
It's all there on the Internet. With its low-cost and instantaneous communication, the global computer network spreads conspiracy theories almost effortlessly. And if the rumor mill churned out such stuff before the Internet, today it whirls at supersonic speed.
"Before the Internet, there would have been a lot of people gossiping," says John McAdams, professor of political science at Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wis. "What the Net allows is an ... internationally articulated discussion."
Take, for example, the mother of all conspiracy theories: the Kennedy assassination. It took several months for the first books to come out attacking the official lone-gunman theory. And, though people were abuzz with wild conspiracies, only the most cohesive and coherent could get published. Popular conspiracy theories came slow-cooked and well-cured.
No longer. Within minutes of the reports of Diana's car crash in August, the Web site "60 Greatest Conspiracies of All Time" (www.conspire.com) received an e-mail claiming British intelligence was responsible. Dozens followed.
Within days, an Internet newsgroup was crackling with all sorts of speculation: Of course, British Intelligence did it. Britain didn't want Diana's boyfriend, a Muslim, as stepfather to the future king of England. Or maybe Prince Charles was in a hurry to be married. No, wait! It had to be the international arms cartel, miffed at Diana's antimine campaign.
No need to check sources or facts. This is the Internet, info-democracy writ large. "The barriers to entry are so low ... we can all be publishers," says Deborah Hurley, director of the Harvard Information Infrastructure Project, a policy organization at Harvard University in Cambridge, Mass.
So, if we are in the throes of this New Internet Order, what should we do about it?
Nothing, Ms. Hurley says. "The best antidote to speech is more speech."
"The more this stuff gets exposed ... the more facetious it becomes," agrees Stephen Jacobs, professor of information technology at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York. "When it gains strength is when it's left to be alluring because it's hidden and no one is talking about it."
No fear of that on the Internet. So many people are talking, it's hard to know if anyone's listening. Spotted from California to Florida, black helicopters are involved in a secret government project. Are all those sightings of "men in black" true ,or modern versions of troll tales? And who runs the United States - a Zionist conspiracy or the Trilateral Commission?
Of course, the same cyberspace that spawns such theories gives space and opportunity for debunkers. Professor McAdams of Marquette maintains a home page supporting the lone-gunman theory in the Kennedy assassination (mcadams.posc.mu.edu/home. htm). "Internet UFO Skeptics" (www.geocities.com/ Area51/Corridor/8148/iufos.html) tries to pierce the mystery surrounding space aliens. The East Bay Skeptics Society (mendel.berkeley.edu/ebss. html) and "The Skeptic's Dictionary & Guide for the New Millennium" (wheel.ucdavis.edu/~btcarrol/skeptic/dictcont.html) are vo- cally dubious about any explanation that ventures into the slightly weird.
Word, one of the oldest Web magazines, is putting together a flow-chart tracing conspiracy theories from the ancient Sumerians to the present. Constant themes: Some Sumerian gods look like the drawings of UFO aliens; secret societies (from the Freemasons to the CIA) have been accused of controlling world events.
"The main thrust of most conspiracy theories is to try to identify some power that is controlling your world," says Sabin Streeter, an editor at Word. "Perhaps that is comforting because the surface level of control has produced such unhappiness that there must be some underlying power." Mr. Streeter says he has become more of a believer since getting involved in the project. But even he draws the line.
For example, a favorite book of conspiracy theorists is "Tragedy and Hope," by Carroll Quigley (President Clinton's mentor at Georgetown University in Washington). The book describes the scheme British financier Cecil Rhodes (of Rhodes scholars) hoped would govern the world through well-placed individuals. Online, Watergate theorists have taken the idea further, suggesting, for example, that Henry Kissinger and Alexander Haig were part of that elite and used drugs and other disorienting techniques to discredit President Nixon.
"Most people would probably laugh in your face" if they heard that, Streeter admits. But "some people claim that Quigley is an agent of the Vatican."
Of course! That would explain why Castro.... |

The country that brought us Coca Cola, Kentucky Fried Chicken, IT&T, Dubya and Madonna is also the the main supplier of excellent state of the art paranoia:
http://www.citybeat.com/archives/1998/issue447/coverarticle2.html
Paranoia Runs Deep
Conspiracy theories have seeped into the heart of the American public
BY JAMES RIDGEWAY
Protocols of the Elders of Zion
Author/Date of Origin: The Czar's Secret Police/early 20th century
The Theory: One of the many versions of the Worldwide Jewish Conspiracy aimed at undermining civil society and establishing Jewish control. The Protocols posit that once every 100 years, the reigning elders of the 12 tribes of Israel gather in a Jewish cemetery in Prague and plot to enslave gentiles and take over world. Promoted in the U.S. in the 1920s and 1930s by Henry Ford and Ford car salesmen, the Protocols remain popular at gun shows, militia meetings and other far-right gatherings.
True Believers: The far-right racialist political movement in the U.S. and its counterparts in Europe and Australia.
Reality Check: The Holocaust. (Response: Many of the same groups insist that the Holocaust is a fiction invented to win sympathy for the Jews.)
Big Business Plot to Kill JFK With the Help of Nazi Scientists
Author/Date of Origin: William Torbitt (pseudonym)/1970
The Theory: The John F. Kennedy assassination was set up by leaders of the military industrial complex through a cabal that includes NASA, a supersecret "Defense Industrial Security Command" run by Werner von Braun, J. Edgar Hoover's Division Five investigative unit and the Mafia. Lee Harvey Oswald was a "mind-control victim." The plot might have been masterminded by Nazi scientists working under NASA cover at a secret site in the Nevada desert.
True Believers: Kennedy assassination buffs.
Reality Check: Just plain not enough space on the grassy knoll for all those people.
Bilderbergers
Author/Date of Origin: Various/1954
The Theory: Beginning with a meeting at the Hotel de Bilderberg in the Netherlands in 1954, the "Power Elite" have convened in a different city every year to plot the course of world history. The group includes members of the Trilateral Commission and the Council on Foreign Relations. Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Katherine Graham (Washington Post), Henry Kissinger and George Stephanopolous have all attended meetings.
True Believers: Spotlight, the Washington-based right-wing weekly, and many others, including former Louisiana congressman John Rarick, who read the Bilderberger "history" into the Congressional Record in 1971.
Reality Check: Despite a purported quarter century of meetings, none has been effectively documented (evidence, says Spotlight, of fear on the part of the press).
Dixie Mafia
Author/Date of Origin: Internet Clinton watchers/1992 presidential election campaign
The Theory: A network of individuals surrounding Bill Clinton conspired to advance the international drug business. Operating out of headquarters in Mena, Ark., it involved narcotics trafficker Barry Seal, and its doings led to the death of Vince Foster as well as the mysterious deaths of more than 30 others who either learned of the plot or got caught in it by mistake. According to one version, Clinton himself was nurtured by the CIA as an informant during his student days in England.
True Believers: Clinton bashers.
Reality Check: Exhaustive investigations show Foster's death to be a suicide, and even Ken Starr seems to have found no evidence to back this conspiracy theory.
Christian Identity
Author/Date of Origin: British Imperialists/the 19th century
The Theory: Only Aryan men, who can trace their heritage back through the Lost Tribes of Israel to the Garden of Eden, can claim to be true inheritors of God's world on earth. And as such, they are the only true citizens of the United States. According to the theory's adherents, people of color aren't really human, just a bad carbon copy, and Jews are "mud people" - descendants of Eve's union with the serpent.
True Believers: Neo-Nazis.
Reality Check: Even most Christian scholars locate the Garden of Eden in Tanzania, which would mean black people are the direct descendants of Adam.
The Illuminati
Author/Date of Origin: French cleric Abbe Barruel/1797
The Theory: Members of this secret society (pockets of which existed in reality) believe in achieving "illumination" through the study of rational philosophy and the humanities. They are supposed to have maintained a secret power cabal that, among other things, launched the French Revolution.
True Believers: The Catholic Church, which condemned the society in the 18th century; Adolph Hitler, who outlawed it in the 1930s; various far-right groups today.
Reality Check: Does it seem like rational humanists are running the world?
Oklahoma City Bombing
Author/Date of Origin: J.D. Cash, Kristen and Glenn Wilburn/April 19, 1995.
The Theory: In this widely popular conspiracy advanced by Cash, a small-town Oklahoma journalist, and the Wilburns, grandparents of blast victims, the bombing occurred when a government sting on neo-Nazis went awry and the FBI failed to stop the explosion it knew would happen.
True Believers: Militias, the John Birch Society, random Internet conspiracy theorists.
Reality Check: Although there were bits of tantalizing evidence at the trial indicating a wider conspiracy behind the bombing, provable evidence of this particular scenario has never been produced.
David Rockefeller, Ultimate Powerbroker
Author/Date of Origin: Various/1960s
The Theory: As honorary chair of both the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission and a principal in the Chase Manhattan Bank (and thus a power to be reckoned with at the Federal Reserve Board), David Rockefeller appears in any number of conspiracy theories as the "Insider's Insider." He's the current head of a family that controlled 90 percent of the country's oil in 1890, by 1930 owned substantial portions of 40,000 corporations, and today has influence across a vast array of affiliated banks, insurance companies and industrial corporations throughout the world. Brother Nelson was governor of New York and vice president of the U.S.
True Believers: This one brings in all types of adherents.
Reality Check: Truth be told, David Rockefeller does seem a little too powerful, even for a big businessman.
The Reorganization of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)
Author/Date of Origin: Spotlight/1980s
The Theory: Ronald Reagan's National Security Directive No. 58 allowed the National Security Agency, then under the direction of Oliver North and Bud McFarlane, to infiltrate this otherwise seemingly innocuous government organization concerned with disaster relief to secretly reoriented its mission. Congress created a secret FEMA budget of $2.9 billion, which went into Mobile Emergency Response Support and the purchase of 300 specially equipped and nuclear-hardened vehicles located throughout the U.S. They were designed to shuttle the president and members of his cabinet around the country so they could maintain control after a nuclear strike. Money was also used for elite counterterrorism and espionage training and to compile a computer database of U.S. citizens involved in "Un-American Activities."
True Believers: Spotlight readers on the right. Reagan conspiracy devotees on the left.
Reality Check: FEMA can't even deal effectively with hurricanes and floods, much less nuclear war.
The Death of Princess Diana
Author/Date of Origin: The fringe media/Sept. 1, 1997
The Theory: Princess Diana's death was a "hit" ordered by the Royal Family out of fear that her companion, Dodi Fayed, an Arab, would wield undue influence on the future King of England, Prince William. The theory has seemingly been confirmed by Mummar al-Qaddafi of Libya, who said, "Britain is the vilest of countries" for "executing an Arab citizen who wanted to marry an English princess." Related theories: "strange lights" seen at the time of the crash presage a UFO connection to be revealed in the future. The Princess's opposition to land mines led to retaliation by arms merchants. The deaths were faked to allow the couple to escape.
True Believers: Distraught Di-maniacs, egged on by radio talk-show hosts.
Reality Check: The theory overestimates the organizational skill of the Royal Family.
New World Order
Author/Date of Origin: Bo Gritz and friends/1980
The Theory: Gritz, a leader of the far-right racialist movement, exemplifies eclectic present-day conspiracy theorizing in his elaborate description of an "elite organization" - which includes such strange bedfellows as Henry Kissinger, the Rothchilds and Rockefeller families, members of Yale's Skull and Bones society, and the Queen of England - that's been behind everything from the American Civil War to the JFK assassination to the formation of the European Economic Community to the Iran-Contra scandal. "It's always been in the planning," warns Gritz, "and now it's in the execution."
True Believers: Survivalists and other far-right adherents. On some points, leftist believers in the "shadow government" or "the Octopus."
Reality Check: As The Beatles observed, "Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl, but she hasn't got a lot to say."
Flight 553
Author/Date of Origin: Sherman Skolnick, independent investigator in Chicago/Dec. 8, 1972
The Theory: United Airlines Flight 553 crashed a few miles short of Chicago's Midway Airport in 1972, killing 43 people, including Dorothy Hunt, wife of E. Howard Hunt, the Watergate burglar. Skolnick questioned whether Richard Nixon had the plane blown up to keep Mrs. Hunt from spilling inside secrets. Suspicious details include a pilot named "Whitehouse," whose body had significant amounts of cyanide in the blood; the mysterious disappearance of the flight recorder; and Nixon's appointment of personal cronies Egil Krogh, Alexander Butterfield and Dwight Chapin to run the crash investigation.
True Believers: Various lefties, encouraged by writings of radical historian Carl Oglesby.
Reality Check: Three different investigations - by the FBI, the National Transportation Safety Board and the Federal Aviation Administration - said the crash was an accident.
JAMES RIDGEWAY writes for The Village Voice, where a version of this story first appeared.

Hmm.. I was trying to connect reincarnation theories with Area 51, Henry Kissinger, The Vatican and aliens in black helicopters... -and add in Berlusconi ..is probably an alien anyway.... and since the result is pretty inconsistent I guess I have been very successful.
The truth is out there

Today's blackout all around Italy was sheer lunacy, you say? Not according to the millions of skeptics who watched the spectacle of men walking on the moon in disbelief. The "lone nut" theory of the assassination is really the "two lone nuts" theory. President Antonio Segni reportedly knew of the plan. 27 Pizza connection hitmen ordered 340 files burned while the White House was reportedly to recruit 400 more top Italian and NATO officials to release imprisoned mobster Charles Lucky Luciano who had been spotted from California to Florida with significant amounts of cyanide in the blood. In the meantime black helicopters were involved in a secret government project. Are all those sightings of "men in black" true, or modern versions of troll tales? And who runs the United States - a Zionist conspiracy or the Trilateral Commission? Who was the "Umbrella Man? Did he shoot at General Walker? A skeptic recovers an alien spacecraft! But he can see the creature is critically injured. Clinton himself was nurtured by the CIA as an informant during his student days in England. According to this theory people of the USSR aren't really human, just a bad carbon copy, descendants of Eve's union with the serpent.
Ok.. "Roll over Beethoven, tell Tchaikovsky the news"
