Ex-CIA analyst finds mysterious Chinese complex on Google Earth (VIDEO)

Late last month, former CIA analyst Allen Thomson was clicking through a space news website when he noticed a story about a new orbital tracking site being built near the small city of Kashgar in southwestern China. Curious, he went to Google Earth to find it. He poked around for a while, with no luck. Then he came across something kind of weird.

Thomson, who served in the CIA from 1972 to 1985 and as a consultant to the National Intelligence Council until 1996, has made something of a second career finding odd stuff in public satellite imagery. He discovered these giant grids etched into the Chinese desert in 2011, and a suspected underground missile bunker in Iran in 2008. When the Israeli Air Force destroyed a mysterious facility in Syria the year before, Thomson put together an 812-page dossier on the so-called "Box on the Euphrates." Old analyst habits die hard, it seems. 

Former FBI agent missing in Iran photographed in Guantánamo jumpsuit

The family of retired FBI agent Robert Levinson, who went missing in Iran in 2007, have released pictures of him dressed in an orange jumpsuit like a Guantánamo Bay prisoner, as they continue to hold hope that he is still alive.

 

The five photographs were taken in April 2011, just months after the family also received a video that was emailed anonymously.

Mr Levinson, a private investigator, disappeared in 2007 on the Iranian island of Kish. The Iranian government has repeatedly denied knowing anything about his disappearance.

However, the consensus among US officials involved in the case is that despite years of denials, Iran's intelligence service was almost certainly behind the 54-second video and five photographs.

An expert on Russian organised crime, Mr Levinson, who would now be 64, retired from the FBI in 1998 and became a private investigator. He was investigating cigarette smuggling in early 2007, and his family has said that took him to the Iranian island of Kish, where he was last seen.

Kish is a popular resort area and a hotbed of smuggling and organised crime. It is also a free-trade zone, meaning US citizens do not need visas to travel there.

Mr Levinson's wife, Christine, decided to release the images because she felt her husband's disappearance was not getting the attention it deserves from the US government.

"There isn't any pressure on Iran to resolve this," she said. "It's been much too long."

She said that because her husband disappeared in Iran, she believes he is still being held there.

"It needs to come front and centre again," she told The Associated Press. "There needs to be a lot more public outcry."

She said she has met with Barack Obama and John Brennan, the president's nominee to head the CIA. She said that both men had pledged to do everything they could to free her husband. Now, nearly six years after his disappearance, she thinks Iran is being let off the hook.

"He's a good man," she said. "He just doesn't deserve this."

FBI spokeswoman Jacqueline Maguire said: "As we near the sixth anniversary of his disappearance, the FBI remains committed to bringing Bob home safely to his family."

Senate to investigate CIA contacts with Zero Dark Thirty creators

Angered by the portrayal of interrogation techniques in the movie ‘Zero Dark Thirty’, the Senate Intelligence Committee has launched an investigation to determine if the CIA gave inappropriate access to information about the bin Laden raid. 

Angered by the portrayal of interrogation techniques in the movie ‘Zero Dark Thirty’, the Senate Intelligence Committee has launched an investigation to determine if the CIA gave filmmakers inappropriate access to information about the bin Laden raid. The movie, which chronicles the hunt for al-Qaeda terrorist leader Osama bin Laden, has come under intense criticism from Washington. The CIA denounced the film, calling the interrogation scenes “a dramatization, not a realistic portrayal of facts.” Senators Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Carl Levin (D-Mich.) also complained about the film’s “grossly inaccurate and misleading” torture scenes. Critics claim that the film falsely depicts the CIA’s use of torture methods as an effective technique in capturing terrorist leaders. But Director Kathryn Bigelow and screenwriter Mark Boal claim that the movie accurately portrays the events based on information they received from the CIA, putting the agency in an uncomfortable position. 

 

The Senate Intelligence Committee, headed by Feinstein, is now launching an investigation to determine whether or not the film’s director and screenwriter were granted “inappropriate” access to classified information by the CIA. 

The committee is also trying to determine if the CIA was responsible for the film’s depiction of torture as a key method in the capture of bin Laden, which it claims is false information.

THE PROPHECIES OF THE STUDY The Elder Paisios CIA

The CIA has established twelve years ago a secret part of analysts dealing with the prophecies of various religions in different parts of the world. In fact the list is the Elder Paisios.

  

google translate:

Information wants to be the entire analytical part of the secret service, which deals with what is considered occult or mystical, and tries to "tie" the puzzles of various prophetic traditions from across the length and Back on Earth, in order to include them in its analytical process. Even more when she knows that the CIA will soon be "something big" to be upset for good stagnant waters palniti.

In the relatively recent (2001) issued book about Elder Paisios: 'Reasons Grace and Wisdom "by Athonite Father Makarios Agiannaniti (the narration of Elder Paisios) lists the requirements for Russia and Turkey. "50 years ago along with my old man, Joseph the prisoner, we met a Russian monk Elder. 

 

To the aid for the suffering of the Russian people and the suffering of believers in communism, we wanted to give him courage, saying words of consolation. But he says: "There is nothing rule that will last seventy years." You think you know? Asked. And the answer: "In 1917, when communism prevailed, Christianity was declared illegal, and whoever was killing Christians was a hero. 

Christians panicked and while wealthy escaped to Europe, and the others ran to the temples, hoping that God will do miracle to save them. In a large church, the Apostles went about five thousand Christians. The Bolsheviks when they found they set fire to the temple. One of the Christians did not die. 

He managed to climb up the domes and lived next to a window and breathing. He then told me that when it's time people started dying, cried and yelled, presented the Twelve Apostles and told them they can not help because it allows God. Is the norm for our sins that will keep 70 years ".
