I. WikiLeaks Documents China’s Google Hack, UN Spying, More Secrets - The Daily Beast - Just scratches surface of real problem
"The whistleblower’s latest document dump exposes Saudi Arabia’s plot against Iran, a corrupt Afghan’s $52 million payday, Putin and Berlusconi’s “bromance,” and more. See nine of the most startling details."
My comments:
There was a time when espionage was legitimately carried out against nasty foes. There are still many bad guys in this world, but, unfortunately, there are too many enemies within who are perverting what was legitimately done for their own greed, glory and power today at everyone's expense.
Francis Gary Powers was flying a legitimate mission in 1960 when he was shot down. So were the 17 US airmen in their C-130 tail number 60528 who were shot down by MIG-17s when they strayed into Soviet Armenia in 1958 while on a recon mission. 11 of them were USAF Security Service airmen whom the Soviets never acknowledged as being killed. I served in the USAFSS from 1961 to 1964 including Trabzon, Turkey, 1963/4 the IP for 60528's mission. The threat was real, e.g., Cuban Missile Crisis Oct 1962. The work legitimate. It had to be kept completely secret.
All of that has now changed. I've been the innocent target of totally invasive surveillance for 12 years 24/7/365 since mid-August 1998 and carried out by two former US Marines, Colonel Vine and Lt Harry Bird, since February 2001 seven months before 9/11. I've experienced it all and know directly what is being done which goes way beyond these revelations today.
I do believe that US embassies around the world will be sponsoring, supporting and sustaining this kind of totally invasive surveillance for espionage purposes. Vine and Bird have often referred people to the US embassy here in London where they apparently are connected in some manner.
I think that while these leaks are important in providing a sense of direction for abuse, they do not even begin to go far enough into what is really happening. Some of the information sought is what would be expected of diplomats abroad. None of it is really shocking. What is really shocking is the kind of Toxic Surveillance currently being carried out against innocents like me indefinitely as part of US/UK policy that includes imprisonment, torture, medical experimentation, R&D and eventual assassination.
I served loyally with dedicated effort as part of the US intelligence effort during a critical period of the Cold War only to receive this kind of treatment by US Marines and others for over 12 years so far as my reward. There can be no more secrets, and everything must be revealed if democracy is expected to survive. The bad guys are now on the inside. They have to be weeded out, or the bad guys outside will succeed.

II. AFSC 20330? 1966-1970, RAF Chicksands. We used to triangulate with your outfit, as I recall. That and the former base in Peshawar. Hope no one is surveilling me!

20250 mission control. You were lucky. Not many realise that Chicksands was in Luton near London, and you had a FLR-9 aka Elephant Cage. Everyone wanted to go to Chicksands. I worked with then for a SSgt at USAFSS HQ who had been at Chicksands. His wife was British. I saw a photo on its website (now gone) of Johnny and June Carter Cash at the bar in the club after he gave a concert there once. Did he stop by for one of these concerts while you were there? He was a 292 in Germany for three years (1952-5) and blames USAFSS for his tinnitus. He also said he was able to empathise with the inmates in the prisons where he performed because of his years in USAFSS. Daughter Rosanne Cash had a song called "Radio Operator" for him on her Black album after he died.
Finally, after Richard Branson's Virgin airline (one aircraft at that time in the early 1980s) completed its first year, the aircraft spent a week in the BA maintenance facility at Heathrow. I had flown from NYC to London on its last flight before that week and was scheduled to fly back on its first day out. We all including the flight crew had to be bused from Gatwick to Heathrow for the plane. On the bus I sat next to a young British Luton woman who had just married a USAFSS guy from Chicksands, and he had been sent to NSA. She was going to join him there. Small world as always.
Tell me: was there a sign inside the building at Chicksands that pointed out that the activity was against international law as the now defunct website described back in the 1990s?
USAFSS has evolved into the USAF ISR Agency with ISR standing for Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance with a Wing at NSA. I find the surveillance aspect of its name quite worrisome given what Tempest has now become having been a target of it for the last 12 years. USAFSS took over Tempest in the early 1970s its history website states. If you were under surveillance, you would probably know as I do from these abusers.

III. Why would anyone possibly want to surveil you in the past 12 years? You served during the Cold War. What possible intelligence benefit could be gained?

Power to the no-hopers who have no ability, training, education, experience or qualifications for anything other than abuse. That's why its necessary to watch out for the revolving door with current military people entering what the Washington Post calls Top Secret America. Lt Harry Bird USMC Ret claims to have been a former commando. He has no qualifications for anything.
Using this Tempest based surveillance technology provides the opportunity for them to lie, cheat, steal and destroy. It creates a life of crime hidden behind surveillance technology. It is beyond comprehension at present. That's why it's being done successfully. No one wants to believe this exists.
It's also surveillance R&D against the human brain to decode its electromagnetic radiation (no implants needed) which takes all these years and many more people and years. This is where the real threat lies by using this surveillance technology against the human being maliciously. It can have an extraordinary beneficial impact which is why I am seeking to expose what has happened and continues to happen to bring it under democratic control before its own ability to control makes that impossible. First, however, everyone must understand that it exists and what it can do.
I've just begun reading James Bamford's "The Shadow Factory" which came out in 2008. He starts off with Michael Hayden (then Director NSA (DIRNSA)) in his office totally protected against Tempest interception noting that not an electron could escape. Michael Hayden went on to become CIA Director (DCI) which for me meant merging this Tempest intercept technology or communications intelligence (COMINT) against the human being into human intelligence (HUMINT).
Now Michael Hayden sits on the board of a company who has just sold security contractors to the State Department as reported by the Washington Post/Top Secret America to be deployed around the world. This includes as part of the deal the current incarnation of Blackwater who are known for their brutality and changed their name to Xe. See www.blackwaterusa.com
If you keep track of the bits and pieces you can see how this all fits together giving the Wikileaks significance when considered against this background of the US State Department sending out to all its embassies worldwide an augmented force of security contractors who might very well act in a similar capacity as have Colonel Vine USMC Ret and Lt Harry Bird USMC Ret which I've experienced for the past decade.
There are reports of such US embassy espionage surfacing in Sweden and Denmark recently. All that is happening must be taken very seriously with excellent questions asked like yours: why? What's the point? I'm just a non-consenting human guinea pig used for much bigger things to come unless it is exposed and brought under the democratic rule of law umbrella. Actually, they made a terrible mistake in targeting me as they have been learning all along.
