Abstract
This paper seeks to establish that for citizens to turn their bellicose state into one that espouses peace, they must be aware of the operation not only of their Public State, but also of their Deep State. Moreover, this paper establishes that The Deep State acts for reasons that are not always readily apparent and in ways that are not always apparently legal. On some occasions, The Deep State even acts in ways that could be considered treasonous. The Public State then lies to cover up the actions of The Deep State. Insightful citizens understand government lies, but may not be aware of the operation of The Deep State. This paper argues that in order for citizens to turn belligerent governments into peaceful ones, they must understand that a powerful clue has been emitted whenever the government narrative doesn’t make sense. Therefore, under these circumstances, the patriotic act is disbelief of the government narrative thereby rendering the actions of The Deep State dysfunctional. Finally, this paper examines the Charlie Hebdo tragedy in light of past “Deep Events” that include the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy and the 2005 London Bombing.
Charlie Hebdo Incident Details
According to a recent internet search, at least five major mainstream media outlets produced a timeline of the Charlie Hebdo events. On January 7, the date of this murderous event, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) produced a timeline of events complete with a map and audio of an English-speaking witness.[1]The CBC article includes that the gunmen shouted “Allahu Akbar” as they entered the Hebdo office. The Telegraph Newspaper in London and the International Business Times in New York City followed suit on January 8th with their timelines.[2]The Guardian, The Independent, EuroNews, and CNN all published timelines, also. This is the most basic set of events in all of the timelines:
Just before 11:30 am car arrives in front of Charlie Hebdo office and two masked and hooded individuals get out from it. They are given access to the office by an employee just arriving for work.
Just after 11:30 am gunmen depart Hebdo office and engage in three police encounters that include gunfire and result in the death of one police officer lying on the ground. They carjack a car and make their getaway.
By 2:00 that afternoon, the hashtag (#), “Je suis Charlie,” had become a global social media trend.
Curiosities and Inconsistencies in the French Government Narrative Begin to Emerge
While Muslims all over the planet began to apologize for what had happened, already, citizen journalists and members of the global Truth Movement found inconsistencies in the details of the French Government’s official narrative of the Charlie Hebdo events. At first, the video of the shooting of the police officer was blacked out. But, later, un-blacked-out footage emerged that clearly showed that the police officer was not shot at all by the gunmen in the footage that had been circulated on most media websites. Even today, when we know that un-black-out footage exists and is widely available elsewhere, on the International Business Times website, the blacked-out video is labeled with a caution: “Graphic footage: Police officer shot by Paris gunmen.”[3]
Paul Craig Roberts, Ph.D., former Assistant Treasury Secretary for Economic Policy under Republican President Ronald Reagan, was among the first to publish his own compilation of inconvenient findings in his column, “Suspicions are growing that the French shootings are a false flag operation.[4]Roberts, noting that the effect of the tragic events was to bring France back into line after French President, Hollande, had spoken against Washington-inspired sanctions against Russia and to stop Europe’s slide toward support of Palestinian aspirations for self-determination through a real and viable state. Roberts lists the following as questions, originally pointed out by members of the Truth Movement, and unanswered by the official narrative:
- A) The suicide of the police chief in charge of the Hebdo investigation;
- B) Youtube’s removal of the un-blacked-out video footage due to “shocking and disgusting content”;
- C) An analysis and display of the un-blacked-out video footage of the shooting of the police officer showing no blood, no recoil, no head fragments splattering.
On January 13, Jonathan Cook, prize-winning journalist based in Nazareth, draws from the same un-blacked-out video as Roberts that seems to show that the police officer who the French government and media say was shot in the head, was, in fact, not shot in the head. After reviewing the video, Cook draws two conclusions: that the authorities lied about the cause of the policeman’s death and the media simply “regurgitated an official story that does not seem to fit the available evidence.”[5]
On January 18, 2015, the blog, Panamza, published an article that listed several inconsistencies. The article is entitled, “Fuite des terrorists de Charlie Hebdo: untrajet impossible.”[6] This article describes the flight of the Charlie Hebdo attackers as “an impossible route.” This story is based on yet another video showing their departure as one that contradicts the official narrative. Finally, addressing this thorny issue, Panamza reports that Paris’s Chief Prosecutor, François Molins,at a press conference on January 9, 2015 gives the getaway route of the perpetrators.
Sort of like the Warren Commission’s Theory of the Magic Bullet that struck Texas Governor John Connolly and killed President Kennedy, but was substantially unscathed when found on a hospital stretcher.
Utilizing Google Maps,” members of the public are seeking to answer the question, “Which way did they go?”
Commenting further on yet another citizen analysis blog, appears the following commentary: “I made an itinerary of the place where the first car was abandoned and the place where the attackers supposedly hijacked one of the witnesses. It is impossible. The witness lies.”
On January 13, 2015, Reuters published a video, republished by Panamza, that directly contradicted the official getaway version. In fact, the official getaway version caused more people, familiar with the neighborhood, to join the Hebdo Truth Movement.
Finally, the revelation—not really, but just a reminder—of a chance encounter between French President Sarkozy and AmedyCoulibaly, , where the latter asked the former for a joband then years later, terrorized a Kosher grocery store![7]
Making Sense of the Nonsensical: The Rise of The Truth Movement
In my lifetime, the Truth Movement began the day everyone in the government subscribed to “The Magic Bullet Theory” in the murder of President Kennedy. People who have impacted me deeply asked important questions at that time of a government that was not forthcoming. For example, in 2013, I had the opportunity to interview Dr. Cyril Wecht, who investigated the President’s autopsy report on behalf of the American Medical Association. He did not believe the official government narrative of what happened to President Kennedy after studying that report and did not believe it when I interviewed him fifty years later. Dr. Cyril Wecht became a member of The Truth Movement only after he had been entrusted to study important information as a result of many objections to the government’s narrative. Dr. Wecht became a source of information and inspiration for many important others.
Inspection of the government’s official narrative of the murder of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. also reveals certain anomalies that, at first, just don’t add up. For example, it was testified in the 1999 trial establishing that there was a government conspiracy to murder Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., that the order was given by Jesse Jackson to have the local armed group, The Invaders, to leave the Lorraine Motel only minutes before the assassination. In order to make sense of all of the puzzle pieces individually and as a whole, each bit of information must be put into perspective by devising a completely new way of looking at it, even questioning “conventional wisdom”—whatever that is.[8]This questioning of conventional wisdom or even what is taken to be the prevailing “common sense” at the time is what can produce break-throughs in understanding. Like connecting the dots in that famous photograph of the Black person touching Dr. King on the balcony of the Lorraine Motelafter he had been shot. According to testimony in the trial, that personwas Merrell McCullough, then-Officer with the Memphis Police Department, and infiltrator of the group, The Invaders, later, at the time of the 1999 trial, employed by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).[9] Thus, yet another Truth Movement emerged around the murder of Dr. King. One of the popular street researchers in this area was Steve Cokely who proclaimed at one of his lectures, that his job was to translate the tedious minutiae of the 1999 trial into people-speak so that the average ordinary person who was impacted by the murder of Dr. King could understand what had happened and why it mattered. Truth Warriors like Steve Cokely are never rewarded by the state—or for that matter, the public at large—and suffer like the whistleblowers that they are—for their dedication to getting the truth out about these tragic events. At best, ignored by the special interest press, their daily labor is without recognition or award.
A powerful moment in The Truth Movement occurred when JFK researchers joined with MLK researchers and then began delving into the facts of the other important assassinations of the decade: Malcolm X; President Kennedy’s brother, Robert Kennedy, who, himself was poised to become the next President of the United States. The COINTELPRO Papers provided a treasure trove of information on the government’s orchestrated attacks on peace activists during the Anti-Vietnam War era, as well as social movement activists working the streets of the U.S. for social and economic justice for African-Americans, Puerto Ricans, American Indians, Mexican-Americans and their supporters.
The Church Committee went further and exposed assassination attempts on foreign leaders and the infiltration of every aspect of social, religious, and academic life by U.S. intelligence, including breaches of the U.S. Constitution. What would be surprising is if a Truth Movement did not arise from the revelations.
After September 11, 2001, all Members of Congress were told that we were hit because we were free and that we should tell that to our constituents. All over the U.S., Members of Congress dutifully repeated that official narrative. But not me. I couldn’t stoop so low when I understood that the United States had invested trillions of dollars in an intelligence and military infrastructure and on one day that infrastructure failed four times—including at the Pentagon, itself! September 11, 2001 created a new generation of Truthers because the U.S. government’s official narrative was so unbelievable. And as September 11th is the excuse for draconian legislation that snatches civil liberties from U.S. citizens and creates an illusion of support for U.S.-led wars all over the world, more and more people are heeding Paul Craig Roberts’s plea to people to just use their brains and think.
The Truth Movement as a Complex Adaptive System
A complex adaptive system (CAS) is a type of human organization and activity that produces new leadership and new knowledge. Complexity Leadership Theory seeks to explain new ways of acquiring knowledge in the Twenty-First Century. Uhl-Bien calls it “shifting leadership from the industrial age to the knowledge era.”[10] According to Uhl-Bien, leadership models in the past were top-down, but now, leadership is more organic, adaptive, and emergent. According to Uhl-Bien, leadership today takes place in a more interactive and dynamic context: the Complex Adaptive System. Actors within the CAS have common goals and common needs. The individuals inside the CAS are linked in a kind of social system where they “solve problems creatively and are able to learn and adapt quickly.”[11] I propose that The Truth Movement has become a complex adaptive system, brought into existence for the purpose of cutting through government lies on important and oftentimes tragic events. This Truth CAS seeks to make sense of the nonsense that has been put forward by The Public State and it produces new leaders who exercise a new kind of citizen leadership, not associated with position inside a bureaucracy or authority gained from a position. Thus, the members of the Truth CAS also represent something new: they are activated and empowered by the very fact of The Public State lies.
CAS adapt quickly to environmental conditions. Members of the CAS are interdependent and able to interact with each other and with the outside environment—in this case, The Public State. CAS also engage in a creative problem-solving process (trying to find the truth) which Uhl-Bien defines as annealing. This annealing is enhanced by interactions with a deceptive Public State that creates the need for more creativity and more problem-solving. According to Uhl-Bien, “the annealing process does however find solutions that individuals, regardless of their authority or expertise, could not find alone.”[12] According to Complexity Leadership Theory, this “knowledge movement” is more capable of producing innovations and advances far more rapidly than what emerges “from the isolated minds of individuals.”[13] I suggest here that Truth Movements that arise as a result of government lies are, in essence, CAS that operate as knowledge movements. I also posit here that, not only are these movements inevitable as all of the people are not willing to drop their critical analytical skills at the threshold of government propaganda, but that these movements represent the exercise of citizenship and patriotism due to their demand of truth in governance and the return to rule of law. In other words, “you can fool some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time, but you can’t fool all of the people all of the time.” And thus, a Truth Movement CAS is born.
“Je Suis Kennedy:” 11/22/63 and The Flight of the Magic Bullet
“Je ne suis pas Charlie; je suisJean Charles de Menezes:” A London Execution on 7/7
After Jean Charles de Menezes was shot dead by three bullets to the head in a 2005 gross “mistake,” an emotional officer apologized to the victim’s family, according to The Telegraph.[14] However, that error did not stop Scotland Yard from spying on the grieving family members, as was disclosed by The Daily Mail on July 23, 2014.[15]According to Tom Cook, a Visiting Professor of Broadcast Journalism at Birmingham City University, “Britain’s rights to basic freedom of expression which writers, journalists, and free speech activists, fought for over centuries have been sacrificed and abandoned in the space of a few short disastrous years.”[16] Cook chronicles police hacking of journalists’ e-mail, what he calls “fearful self-censorship,” and creeping powers of the state that exhibit signs of authoritarianism.
The Deep State Reveals Itself
Peter Dale Scott, Ph.D. theorized The Deep State when researching certain U.S. events and popularized the concept in his eponymous book, The American Deep State.He noticed, when researching four Deep Events in U.S. history: the assassination of President Kennedy, Watergate, Iran-Contra, and 9/11—that the events all bore certain common characteristics. In the U.S. setting, these events all shared the fact of involvement of individuals who had access—either from the top or somewhere down the line—to the apparatus of the Continuity of Government (COG) for the United States. COG planning concerns itself with what happens in the U.S. when/if a catastrophic event takes place. Scott discovered that each of the investigated events was carried out by individuals who had access to this COG apparatus. Moreover, many of these events were carried out by the same individuals—whether they were in the government nominally or not! COG were the extreme measures that would be carried out even if they violated the Constitution because the Constitution would be suspended under this regime. Scott found that in the Iran-Contra scandal, the COG secret communications network was used to evade a Congressionally-mandated prohibition on the sale of weapons to Iran as well as financial support of the Contras who were, at that time, organized by the U.S. to fight the Sandinista government of Nicaragua, headed by Daniel Ortega. Scott explains that “a very small group had access to a high-level secret network outside government review, in order to implement a program in opposition to government policy.”[17] The COG planning was begun in the 1950s, but was continuedand worked on by Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld for two decades when, according to Scott, they implemented COG officially “for the first time,”[18] on 9/11/01.
According to Scott’s research, Iran-Contra and 9/11 were not the only Deep Events in which the U.S. government’s secret communication channel was utilized. In fact, this particular feature characterizes the environment in which the assassination of President Kennedy, the Watergate, Iran-Contra, and 9/11took place. Therefore, Scott provides a powerful aspect of a Deep Event for the Truth Movement to research: the use of the government’s secret communication channel. As a result, an important question for intrepid Charlie HebdoTruthers is whether or not any French government secret communications channels were activated prior to or during the Event.
Scott also identified three other characteristics of Deep Events that are worth bearing in mind as we digest the Charlie Hebdo tragedy: 1) a ready-made government explanation that is parroted by the press; 2) self-incriminating “evidence” for the “protected” individual(s) blamed by the government for causing or carrying out the tragedy; and 3) a small group of insider individuals able to control Deep Events and their aftermaths, including the narrative, the investigation, and the cover-up. Citizen journalists have been able to poke a considerable number of holes through the official French government narrative that has been expounded ad nauseum by the press.The fact that neither the government narrative nor the line of the parroting press change in spite of new and contradictory evidence is alarming to these citizens who trust their skills of critical analysis more than they trust the utterances of their own governments. Therefore, it should not be surprising that more and more video evidence eventually becomes available, “on the street” as it were, that does not conform to that official narrative. In the case of 9/11, the government still refuses to release photographic and video evidence that might dispute its official narrative, leaving citizens to speculate about government intentions as well as about what else the government has lied. With as little as a cell phone, or the availability of the tools of social media—like Google Maps, for example—anyone can put their analytical skills to the test, record historic events, or deconstruct government propaganda. All of this aids the task of citizen activists and alternative journalists. I have recounted just a few of those holes here.
True to form, the ID card left behind in the vehicle is as curious a piece of government evidence as was the passport that, in various official narratives,survived destruction despite the rubble of New York’s evaporated World Trade Center buildings. This ID card bolsters the French government’s explanation of who did what on that fateful January day, but it also conforms to Scott’s prediction that Deep Events will provide self-incriminating evidence for the named patsy(ies). In the case of the murder of President Kennedy, it was Lee Harvey Oswald’s own U.S. intelligence activities that were intended to bolster his persona as a pro-Cuban Communist that came to be his undoing during his public unmasking as the government’s guilty party.
From Paris Match, we have the story of one of the last men to have seen Hebdo cartoonists Cabu and Wolinsky alive. He isa market stand ownerin one part of town who sold newspapers to the cartoonists on the morning of their deaths, but who also just happened to be the same person who was in the same and distant part of town as the Kouachi brothers after their deadly attack. This market stand owner was reportedly told by the Kouachi brothers, “If the media ask you any questions, we are Al Qaeda Yemen.”
A French citizen observer notes that while the much-celebrated identity card of Said Kouachi had been found in their hijacked getaway car, the driver’s license ofCherifKouachi, Said’s brother and accomplice, had also been left behind in the very same car! But even more than that, this very same witness, the market stand owner, was the owner of the car hijacked by the Kouachi brothers in which to make their getaway out of Paris.And, it was in this witness’s car that the lost IDs were found! Yet another French citizen observer asks how could the market stand owner travel from one part of Paris to another so quickly and have such fortuitous encounters with both the Hebdo cartoonists as well as their killers in the same day, all within a matter of minutes.[19]Where is there no traffic at all at 11:30 in the morning in a major U.S. city? The Eleventh Arrondissement in Paris is the most densely populated in the city–almost twice that of Manhattan in New York City. How did the Kouachi brothers flee in the most densely populated neighborhood in all of France?
Yet another “witness” by the name of “Eric,” who lived next door to the Kouachi brothers, was interviewed by the press and was found to have known Wolinski“very well” and Cabu, “somewhat.” This situation is similar to the 9/11 incident where an FBI informant actually lived with two of the alleged hijackers!
And then, we have the prior terror event in France involving an alleged terrorist (Merah) who happened to be an agent with France’s now-disbanded anti-terrorism outfit.[20] The links between Al Qaeda, Islamic States (IS) also known as Da’esh, and the United States government are inconvenient, well-known, and not denied. They’re just never mentioned in either the official narrative or that handed to us by the mainstream media. I label that media “the special interest media” so that it becomes patently clear whose interest that media serves—not the public’s or the people’s. In fact, the special interest media are part and parcel of The Deep State, which could not operate its deceptions without media complicity. In fact, Jonathan Cook writes that “one would expect ‘professional’ journalism to respond by engaging with these concerns,”[21] but instead, professional journalists meet these inconvenient facts with either silence or ridicule of the ones raising them.
Critical information, for example, of David Headley’s connection to U.S. intelligence in the Mumbai blast is just never mentioned and left to swirl only in the realm of the “coincidence evidence” that populates Truth Movements.[22] Or the inconvenient presence of war games or training exercises at the very moment of the September 11th hijackings and the disappearance of the Malaysian Airlines plane MH370 over the Pacific Ocean and the London Tube bombing and the Boston Marathon Bombing.[23]
Mapping the route, questioning the accounts of the witnesses, studying video of the tragic events made public, remembering the magic passport and the connections to intelligence in previous recent terror tragedies are all activities of a healthy state investigation and a healthy media. Unfortunately, this is exactly the kind of activity that has gone undone in public service quarters, yet thrives within a Truth Movement CAS. It is the annealing behavior of Truth Movements flung across our globe that come together by way of social media and the internet, in the midst of the chaos of the moment, that helps us unmask and understand what is actually going on. These Truth Movements, then, are our last great hope to thwart the plans of the Deep State and reassert citizen rights to governance that respects rule of law and the human rights of all, including certain environmental rights of nature that nurtures and sustains us all.
Unmasking The Deep State is the best way to thwart its merger with The Public State—a circumstance that would render the political process and the operation of The Public State irrelevant to citizen values. If politics is the authoritative allocation of values in a society, then, in such a situation, the policies adopted by The Public State would bear no resemblance at all to the values of the citizens who elect it. Sadly, that is exactly the situation that many inside the U.S. Truth Movement describe. And inside the peace movement, too. Activists inside these movements believe that halting the global slide toward what they believe is fascism is a matter of the political survival of the international rule of law and, in the U.S., ofConstitutional governance. I agree with them. Therefore, there are hardlymore important urgencies than this. While not necessarily embracing each others’ causes, it is imperative that disparate groups coalition for this one single cause. The Deep State operating under official color of the United States government once wrote that misdirecting the public was one of its chief aims. This objective was announced in the FBI’s COINTELPRO papers. The people’s continued division is The Deep State’s victory. So, too, of certain elements of the Truth Movement to not take these issues seriously.
Preventing the Merger of The Deep State and The Public State in Order to Make A Peace State
As a sitting Member of Congress, I was the first of 535 to demand an investigation of 9/11 and ask, “What did the Bush Administration know and when did it know it.” That simple question, coming from me, was too much for our political system—or rather—for The Deep State to countenance. Thanks to Dr. Peter Dale Scott’s important theoretical formulation, I can now make sense of the downward spiral that I was subjected to from all sides, including the hate message delivered over the public airwaves by a “journalist” who, at the time, was on the FBI payroll. The Deep State won as I was put out of office and replaced by someones who would reliably vote for war while espousing“peace” when necessary. The war machine rolls on, destroying individual lives and entire countries in its wake. My question, almost fourteen years later, has never been officially answered. Even while the events of 9/11 are used to justify every illegal U.S. policy from the wars against Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan, Somalia and Yemen, to the wars at home against the Bill of Rights and the U.S. Constitution. Yet, it is only the Truth Movement that has come close in assessing what happened on that fateful day and the global consequences of its aftermath. Most of the current crop of Congresspersons know from my example that The Deep State is riddled with landmines of self-protection. Best to say nothing, do nothing, and know nothing–for any motion at all could set off a deadly device. And so, except for a few brave voices from unexpected places of power, Officialdom is no closer to understanding what happened on 11 September 2001 and how it happened than on that sorrow-filled day. However, for true peace, the world must know how September 11th came to happen and then engulfed it in war.
Our goal is peace. At the same time, there are powerful individuals with access to state power, who thwart our goal of peace. My personal formulation is that the bedrock for peace lies in truth. For without truth, there can be no justice. And without justice, there can be no peace. Going further, and without peace there can be no dignity for us human beings or for the Earth that gives us life. In 1963, President John F. Kennedy spoke at the graduation ceremony of American University. And in that speech, President Kennedy used the word “peace” over thirty times in a speech lasting less than thirty minutes. President Eisenhower, before Kennedy was sworn in as President, warned the people of the United States against the machinations of the Military-Industrial Complex. Today, that Complex has also absorbed Wall Street, which in turn has swallowed Congress and the media. Instead of turning back The Deep State, the people of the U.S. have allowed The Deep State to encroach further and further into the public sphere. Some of this is caused by the collaboration of activists inside the Truth Movement, knowingly or unknowingly, with the mechanisms of The Deep State. Yet, far more pervasive is the fact of public lack of awareness of this aspect of governance. With access to illicit proceeds from drug trafficking and other illegal activities, The Deep State of the U.S. has almost unlimited funds with which to coopt and corrupt officials in The Public State all over the world.
Jonathan Cook concludes: “We have to trust that the officials haven’t lied to the journalists and that the journalists haven’t misled us. And yet there are no grounds for that trust apart from blind faith that our officials are honest and not self-interested, and that our journalists are competent and independent-minded.”[24] I agree with him. And part of the importance of Scott’s research is how he demonstrates that a very small group of insiders can implement a program “in opposition to government policy.” I do believe that the other side of that coin is also operative: that is, that a very small group of courageous insiders or individuals like the activists who broke into the FBI office in order to expose the excesses of COINTELPRO, can make a huge difference in saving our government from its current cabal of controllers.
I encourage the Truth Movements around the world to continue their brave questioning of official narratives that seem ready-made in the face of tragedies. While I have nothing to offer them except the knowledge that there is life after whistleblowing, whistleblowers, even while suffering greatly under the Administration of President Barack Obama, must continue to act on their consciences and we must support them in every way that we can. For, today, we are on the path of a fusion between The Deep State and The Public State.
If we are successful, we will be able, finally, to stop the wars and the immobilizing madness of hatred and division and place the U.S. squarely on the path of truth, reconciliation, and peace. If The Deep State is able to beat back our Truth and knowledge movements, I shudder to even contemplate what our future holds.
