Security Failures and Forgotten Lessons

Systemic murder, abduction & torture by cowardly idiots for dictators (tyranny) is not war.
From its conception, the IRA has been run by deceitful anti-religious Marxists extremists so called revolutionaries, using hate agitation and violence to provoke/bait reactionary hate and violence.
Despite the years of successful propaganda the reality is shocking.
Closest the IRA ever came to war was during their roles as useful idiot servants of anti-religious totalitarian Marxism (Spanish Civil War in which Christians were slaughtered) then its child Nazism ( even before the pre-WW2 #NaziSovietPact)
Addressing the illusions of Prime Victimhood fuelling hate & terrorism wasting lives and opportunities.
Why Ireland acknowledging its true Heroes who fought previous generations of #NationalistsSocialists actually has value for international peace! And the advance of democracy!
Something vital for many reasons, whether it be the practical steps towards stopping dogs being burnt alive in China, ending the Them Vs Us hate fuelling cruel Wars or freeing up resources for many other worthy urgent causes.
Detail which is beyond many.
In fact through deceitful populist politics, as before, many well-meaning naive people proclaiming to be anti-war, have actually been passionately supporting the very worst of deceitful dictator loyal populist politicians)
Excessive Human Tribalism
Switch The Binaries
We will always have hate filled extremists convinced they're Prime Victims until more help tell the stories on Ireland's true heroes who fought totalitarian Marxism and its child Nazism (stories of how & why populations are fooled & baited by extremist functioning as useful idiots for dictators which have value for international peace in the Middle East and elsewhere)
The real Secret History of so-called revolutionary terrorism. (Nationalist Anarchist Terrorism)
And how throughout the IRA history it has been run by anti-religious Marxist extremists who used agitation and violence to provoke/bait reactionary hate and violence.
An Evil tactic in which Catholic civilian casualties were prized as they could be used in propaganda to exploit Them vs Us divisions.
When the Nazis (the nationalist socialist party) replicated Marxist political Warfare, within a relatively short space of time they managed to fire up Angry mobs of Zombified Nationalist Socialists many totally convinced they were Prime Victims, by simple targets of hate and blame.
Just as well-meaning people who have never had cause to learn about scientific methods of analysis, protein structures or viruses can be convinced they are victims by simple conspiracy theories.
Examples of the extremely angry covered conspiracy theorists convinced they're 'victims'
One fired up with perceived victimhood derailed a train.
Another appears to have being behind a bomb attack.
The non-random components of hate used to make sections of populations angry.
Identity exploits
Ultra nationalism
Social Causes.
Them vs. Us.
Harnessing populations.
(Targeting the naïve and well-meaning)
Front groups
Organisations in which proclamations do not match they're focused activities.
(Often members of anti-war, antinuclear groups will be unaware of the anti-western extremist ideology and loyalties of those running the groups)
Youth & human rights movements. (The young and naïve are particularly susceptible to Simple targets of blame and hate)
Ancestral Grievance Propaganda
(Selectively using victims of the past to charge hate for victimhood, leading to new victims through cycles of hate and violence)
Propaganda and Agitprop
Music art and film used to deliver simple messages. The so-called rebel music eulogising terrorists who for more than a century have been useful idiots for totalitarian regimes, Islamic extremists elevated and supported by soviet dictators also adopted these and other powerful radicalisation strategies.
When the Nazis replicated the Marxist use of Propaganda and Agitprop, emotional folk songs to carry their messaging of prime victimhood. And direct hate towards simple targets of blame.
Overtime that's extremely effective when targeting sections of populations highly susceptible to tribalism with limited general knowledge about actual events.
In the long run Hate and violence breed destructive and deadly reactionary hate and violence. Marxist Nazi Style political Warfare Tactics are destructive and Evil by Design)
Soviet dictatorships seeking to weaken democracies with divisions made extensive use of anti-western ideology and cult Marxist extremists functioning as interface groups to run campaigns to weaken democracies and target populations with division.
Although most who subscribed to simplistic Marxist ideology will be well meaning.
Those buying into the popular #MarxistRedHerring which blames capitalism as opposed to monopolise and the endless repetitive anti-western ancestral grievance propaganda.
Cult extremists which preaches deception, agitation provocation, violence & terrorism for so-called revolution remain extremely useful to them in the present day.
In the US their counterparts on the far right have also been elevated in influence operations. To the few who actually understand the political Warfare approaches and tactics. The very labels of left and right are a binary 'Them Vs Us' to exploit weakened democracies with divisions.
The organised Far Left Marxists with their deceitful campaigns and fronts provide fuel for the Far Right. In fact troublingly we've seen news in the far-right camp replicate the Marxists use of agitprop firing up Angry mobs charging the plates of division.
That's what happened when the Nazis replicated Marxist political warfare and agitprop.
It's unfortunate that one of the most valuable stories in the history of evil and destruction is not widely known.
Thankfully the US has a constitution and mechanisms to resist.
However, so long as populations, governments & security agencies underestimate of the binary traps and their components, fronts agitprop and subversion. We will have gaping holes in the Shields against Dictators seeking to weaken democracies with divisions.
Many well-meaning people continue to feed the beast amplifying the simplistic tribal them vs Us. While well resourced security agencies have underestimated the need to focus on the tools of extremists.
Front group Arrays
Activists propaganda cloaked as professional journalism.
Propaganda Media of dictatorships which invites extremist within democracies on air to elevate those, while freely Broadcasting within target populations using the cloak of alternative journalism.
Social Media - in which dictators with immense purchasing power can buy propaganda add space to elevate divisive narratives or extremists. Either directly or indirectly via there anti-western assets.
All of which can be used for the character assassination of moderate politicians within democracies, while simultaneously elevating anyone or anything which is useful to dictatorships fighting the advance of democracy for their very survival through strategies aimed at weakening with divisions.
The strategically important United Kingdom and Southern Ireland on the Western flank of Europe remain important to the security of Europe and all citizens.
Regions which hold the record for the longest sustained attacks exploiting Them vs Us divisions (between Christians) have valuable lessons.
As evidenced in the following webpage www.hf21.org/stb
Although some will spit fire at the mention of this (especially populations infected by nationalist socialist identity exploits totally convinced their prime victims)
In our evolution, If not for successful political Warfare subversion operations by anti-religious totalitarian Marxism, Ireland would likely still be part of The United Kingdom with no reason for an Irish man or women on not to have been Prime Minister of The United Kingdom.
And more importantly.
If not for the UK and Ireland being wide open to Marxist, then Soviet #HateGames subversion to divide.
Being a practice ground to refine the tactical use of Marxist Nationalist Anarchist agitation and Terrorism. Immense human suffering could have been avoided, and international democracy could have been much for the advanced.
In the second half of the 1800s nationalist anarchist terrorism had set the world on fire with many attacks and assassinations.
See 'Propaganda of the Deed' (Destructive and Evil by Design)
https://youtu.be/WeQF1CczbFc
Then in 1914 a nationalist anarchist assassination team (with links to the crazed evil little Marxist dictator Vladimir Lenin and his henchmen) successfully murdered Franz Ferdinand igniting WWI.
One of the most infamous Soviet agents
Infamous for spreading Marxist communism to the East using viral hate (by historical coincidence, Wuhan China, the origin of the biological virus which is caused the world so much trouble) was Mikhail Borodin.
Born Mikhail Markovich Gruzenberg (used alias George Brown when arrested in Scotland)
https://spartacus-educational.com/Mikhail_Borodin.htm
His role in Irish history is largely missed.

Without the anti-religious system for manipulating populations with hate and division in political warfare, and people like Borodin, democracies would be much more advanced, with millions of lives and unimaginable human suffering spared.

Putin plans to make the West destroy itself Chaos and division is the real goal for Russia From magazine issue: 25 July 2020 by Owen Matthews
Article Extracts
In the 1920's -1930's... Communist agitator and networker Willi Münzenberg set up and channelled money to dozens of front organisations, from the League against Imperialism to Workers International Relief, in order to draw thousands of liberal-minded people into supporting good causes secretly funded by the Communist International. Münzenberg called them his ‘innocents’ clubs’. These arms-length organisations had much wider influence than overtly Soviet propaganda organs such L’Humanité or the Daily Worker— just as today’s fake accounts have more influence than the conspiracy-theory spewing Sputnik news agency and the RT (formerly Russia Today) news channel,
El Che (Che Guevara): The Crass Marketing of a Sadistic Racist RL1 RL2 RL3
Article Extracts
Che Guevara, not to put too fine a point on it, was a psychopath whose sadistic lust for blood was not easily quenched. He killed for pleasure.
He had, moreover, little time for youthful rebellion and none at all for individualism. Lastly, Che Guevara was a racist who specifically held blacks in contempt. I think about this often when I see deluded young African-Americans wearing a t-shirt with his likeness. But a German born a handful of years after 1945 really ought to have known better.
Much has been written about how Guevara executed men and boys in prison in the early revolutionary years in Cuba, disposing of such bourgeois niceties as trials. This little snippet from a 1966 speech by Guevara ought to have given Zetsche some pause:
Hatred is the central element of our struggle! Hatred that is intransigent...hatred so violent that it propels a human being beyond his natural limitations, making him violent and cold- blooded killing machine...We reject any peaceful approach. Violence is inevitable. To establish Socialism rivers of blood must flow! The imperialist enemy must feel like a hunted animal wherever he moves. Thus we’ll destroy him! These hyenas are fit only for extermination. We must keep our hatred alive and fan it to paroxysm! The victory of Socialism is well worth millions of atomic victims!
Without the evolution of the Communist toolset for manipulating & dividing populations, (and the adoption of those tools by the Nazis) Horrendous Human Suffering could have been avoided. On anarchism violence breeds violence.

The Role of Agitation and Propaganda https://www.marxists.org/history/erol/ncm-8/rcp-agit-prop.htm
"Communists often talk about the crucial importance of revolutionary agitation and propaganda. And with good reason. Together, agitation and propaganda, are a mighty and indispensable weapon in the Party’s revolutionary arsenal. How else but with vivid, compelling agitation, as well as propaganda, can the hatred which is provoked by daily life under capitalism be further aroused and sharpened against the bourgeoisie?"

From Havana to Pyongyang
Extracts
The main link between Sinn Fein and North Korea is Gerry MacLochlainn. The former Sinn Fein organiser in Wales was released from Maidstone Prison in November 1983 after serving two and a half years of a sentence for conspiracy to cause explosions; before becoming the main representative of Sinn Fein in Great Britain. More recently, he has been a Sinn Fein appointed councillor in Derry and Mitchell McLaughlin's constituency manager.
These were not simply the personal views of an individual member of Sinn Fein. In 1986, the Sinn Fein Foreign Affairs Bureau sent a message of solidarity to the North Korean regime. The message, signed by Sile ni Dhara, stated clearly: "We offer our support to the Workers' Party of Korea in its fight for the establishment of the Democratic Confederated Republic of Korea." ("Sinn Fein Letter to Korea," Ireland's War, issue 18 (June 1986) p.7). Also, during a visit to Scandinavian countries in 1987, Gerry Adams attended a reception at the embassy of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea on the occasion of the 75th birthday of Kim Il Sung. ("Gerry Adams visits Scandinavia", Ireland's War, issue 23 (July 1987), p.7) In 1989, an official Sinn Fein delegation including Gerry MacLochlainn, Sheena Campbell (later murdered in 1992 by loyalists) and John Doyle attended the World Youth Festival in Pyongyang (cfr "Sinn Fein Delegation at World Youth Festival", An Phoblacht-Republican News, (vol.11 number 26), 29 June 1989 p.14).

The necessity to counter radicalisation

SEFF Victims & Survivors Group - Kenny Donaldson & the Team This is one of the genuine victims groups Twitter Webpage I state 'Genuine groups' as the strategically important Northern Ireland is flooded with anti-democratic Marxist Nazi Style Front Groups (most associated with SFIRA, RSFIRA or other Marxist Nationalist Socialists Groups) proclaiming to be Human Rights organisations or Victims Groups. (Groups which won't support actions against the components of hate & Terrorism) In fact many are active in aggressive political warfare agitation to exploit divisions for political ends, tormenting the victims of the systemic abduction Torture Mutilation & Murder. The current total failure understand the threat from these or to use legislation against them is not only cruel for the victims, its predictably going to lead to further deaths.

The International battles
The Advance of Civilisation Vs Dictators fighting the advance of democracy for their very survival.
We are well into a new Cold War in which the main state adversaries are the Russian Chinese & Iranian dictatorships. (Others such as North Korea are at play too)
I'd like to see a world in which smarter paths are explored to free the citizens of those dictatorships to contribute to a stable world and international efforts to advance humanity, science & medicine.
To get there will require working out new approaches by democratic Governments & multi-million dollar intelligence agencies which have allowed catastrophic failures in the middle east & elsewhere with serious costs (in both human lives & geo-stability)
I feel steps worth urgent exploration should include:
The formation of a new League of Democracies - with representatives teams highly vetted for their attributes (and accountable to equally vetted advisory teams/monitors)
An international Intelligence report - explaining how & why key democracies are weakened by influence campaigns aimed at exploiting divisions. (Some very important examples of forgotten knowledge mentioned above)
Building Countermeasures to The simple binary Traps and the components. Anti-Western Interface groups, Fronts, propaganda and elevation of extremists.
Working on enabling exit strategies for dictators - That would require thinking well outside of the boxes If allowing dictators to escape to a 'Dictator Island' could save the oppression & radicalising of populations 'wars & countless lives' that would be a price worth paying. Cruel oppressive corrupt Dictators know what's in front of them if they fall (see examples in links L1, L2) therefore they will sacrifice any amount of lives for their own preservation .

We need to do better in terms of actions!
In my view tactics of the Soviet comintern (also identified in Denazification) still hold valuable forgotten lessons.
