1 year ago

An interview which breaks down the long history of the capitalist state's organisations being used to smash obstacles to profit making and methods used to divide and subvert workers' movements abroad and at home.

Part one of a three-part series on covert action, featuring former CIA official John Stockwell and Louis Wolf, co-editor of 'Covert Action Information Bulletin' begins with an overview of the general nature and activities of the CIA. They then discuss how the "Intelligence Identities Protection Act" and the Reagan executive order on intelligence agencies would promote media self-censorship and thus repress public scrutiny and criticism of intelligence (including FBI) activities -- including assassination plots, destabilization of foreign governments, and assorted "dirty tricks." John Stockwell explains how this legislation in effect amends the First Amendment by abridging freedoms of speech and press - without having gone through the constitutional amendment process.
