    Default Gordon Duff: Treason? US Army Declares War on AltMedia Sites

    Gordon Duff has just posted this stinging rebuke to the American military for hacking and interfering with AltMedia websites and journalists. (That includes us, friends...) He says the Army is guilty of treason against the American people – and he has a point.

    http://www.veteranstoday.com/2014/07...on-free-media/

    Quote The United States Army, operating from a secret base in Arizona, has declared war on independent media through hacking, blocking communications and sabotaging radio broadcasts.

    Computer security teams working with Veterans Today traced a pattern of attacks to Fort Huachuca, headquarters of the US Army Intelligence School.


    This base, in the tiny town of Sierra Vista, Arizona, just north of the Mexican border, is home, not only to this spying operation but also to America’s drone program as well. Every drone attack begins there, with “pilots” trained at Fort Huachuca and drones developed and tested there.

    The attacks on independent news and media organizations were discovered when a number of websites, not just Veterans Today, began noting unusual traffic patterns and clumsy hacking attempts. Security software traced these attacks to Fort Huachuca and to a number of local police computer systems around the US.

    At Fort Huachuca, the internet censorship, operating to block websites worldwide that report news unfavorable to some US policies or that are critical of Israel, a pattern clearly recognized, was traced to commands tasked with training “Cyber Warfare” specialists.

    These training classes, funded by Congress and paid for by the American people, are intended to protect government computer systems from attacks by unfriendly governments and terror organizations. In reality however there are other issues as well. America protects her secrets but those secrets are, more often than not, how the American government violates America’s laws.

    The Cyber Warfare specialists of Fort Huachuca, operating well outside the authority of the US Constitution, censor the internet, run “sock puppet” websites spreading propaganda and disinformation, orchestrate smear campaigns against journalists and activists who are not under total control and use electronic countermeasures to silence freedom of speech.

    PATTERN OF CRIMINALITY

    Congress has authorized no funds for the domestic psychological warfare programs at Huachuca. There is no evidence that the command there is operating under any authorization nor is there evidence that they are even under American command at all, particularly as the pattern of activity deeply parallels efforts by organizations such as the ADL and AIPAC, groups, oddly enough, cited by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and members of Congress as tied to espionage against the United States.

    By definition, the US Army is controlled by a foreign government that may well represent a “clear and present danger” to the security of the United States.

    Any action whatsoever by the US Army inside the United States is a violation of “posse comitatus,” a law that prevents the military from engaging in insurrection against the United States.

    Thus, by definition as outlined in Federal Statute, the actions of these intelligence and psychological warfare commands are, technically, acts of insurrection and, by definition, potentially treason, a capital crime punishable by life imprisonment and even death.


    Moreover, the Bill of Rights, the first 10 amendments to the constitution, clearly guarantees both freedom of speech and freedom of press. Every action, jamming communications, hacking websites, smearing journalists and spreading propaganda are, not just violations of these provisions but acts of war against the United States.

    By definition, the US Army is at war with America.


    In addition, their actions, jamming telephone communications, hacking Skype servers to interfere with radio and television broadcasts, are violations of both state and federal laws that protect communications infrastructure from terrorism.

    By definition, the US Army is a terror organization.

    PATTERN OF ABUSE

    Edward Snowden’s revelations over NSA spying at home and abroad failed to touch on how information illegally obtained was being used. Here, for the first time, we see rogue commands within the military itself using such information to target both individuals and organizations to serve an agenda consistent with a police state dictatorship.

    By definition, the US Army is the American Gestapo.

    The pattern is clear,
    silencing criticism of US policy in the Ukraine, in Syria and Iraq and continued US complicity in Israel’s apartheid abuses of the Palestinian people. News organizations that advocate investigation of fraud at the Department of Veterans Affairs are targeted, those calling for increased financial oversight of military spending and financial crimes are also victims.

    By definition, the US Army is involved in racketeering and extortion.

    The use of a “training command” to spy on Americans, censor press, wage psychological war and spread wild conspiracy theories, spending millions of dollars while America’s war veterans are dying by the thousands due to health care funding cuts is more than simply unjust, it is criminal.

    By definition, the US Army is guilty of mail and wire fraud and conspiracy.

    NOT JUST THE ARMY


    This is one base, albeit a “secret base” in the parched recesses of the American desert. This is one command. By luck or happenstance, the Army or whoever their controllers are, and no American can be certain of who controls the US Army anymore, chose to make use of a command with strong ties to the intelligence community, many of whose members now side with the independent press.

    However, in finding this one command and the series of abuses they are involved in, when added to the NSA abuses and so many others, there is more than a pattern, there is a clear threat.

    When you combined control of the corporate press with broad warfare on any independent press, when you combine this with massive and systematic spying on the public and then look at the militarization of police forces across America, it is not unrealistic to assume that America is no longer “America.”

    Were one to define a “police state” or “totalitarian dictatorship,” America’s rigged elections, spying, controlled press and government secrecy rival any in breadth and exceed almost all in scope and efficiency.

    Many speak of Americans as “sheep.” What is clear is that, should those “sheep” awaken, every provision has been made to lead them to slaughter.

    GD/HSN
    One more thing: In addition to violating every American’s First Amendment right to free speech, externally squeezing or interfering with internet or broadcast media amounts to a “prior restraint” on publication, which the Supreme Court has already ruled is unconstitutional.

    Class action suit, anyone?

    Glad to see folks are starting to understand the severity of this government's actions. Maybe someone in mainstream media will grow some hair and report the truth.

    VT seems to hype **** up soo much, it's actually really disappointing.

    "Secret military base in Arizona" ?

    WTF? Fort Huachuca is ANYTHING but secret and is the HOME of army cyber command, the RNOSC, the TNOSC.. lots of assets, this is all publically available through a lot of websites.

    I see a lot of un-backed accusations in this article, how does VT know these things happened? I'm very familiar with this side of the military, it's what I do for a living and I don't see this article as very accurate at all.

    Duff referenced the research in his VT column of June27 - "Bungler Central" - http://www.veteranstoday.com/2014/06...cret-spy-base/

    Quote Posted by Gordon Duff
    When Veterans Today columnist Stew Webb assisted by fellow columnist Gene “Chip” Tatum, [a] former CIA “Psyop” specialist, began checking Veterans Today and affiliated websites for hackers, the trail quickly led to Ft. Huachuca.

    Computers at that base were not only used to overload the sites, possibly hundreds, even thousands, causing “denial of service,” but were systematically blocking internet search engines as well, reprogramming them away from “unpleasant facts” and directing the public to “sock puppet” websites filled with libel, smears and bizarre conspiracy theories, websites funded unknowingly by the American people themselves with their tax dollars.
    Duff adds:
    Quote Posted by Gordon Duff
    What is almost funny is that the base commander at Huachuca is a close associate of a “VT” editor and former top intelligence officer of NATO’s largest command. Other VT editors sat on the National Security Council; one was chief intelligence advisor to President Reagan. Now they are targeted for standing up to government fraud or speaking out against years of disastrous military adventures and the abuse of America’s military veterans.

    It gets even better. That same Army, along with all other major Intel organizations, uses open source intelligence analysis from Veterans Today citing it as both “flawless” and “impeccably researched.” They use it but don’t want others to have it. What good is a “democracy” when the public actually can, if it wishes, find out what is really going on regarding its national security?

    I don't think logs have been posted, but someone in one or other comment trail did ask for same.

    Ask Uncle Gordy, or Chip Tatum or Stew Webb personally I suppose. He/they might respond to your very articulate query. (I'm not a techie, so I wouldn't even how to phrase the question.)

    Hope this might help,

    To be frank, Targ, your statements, as a form of weighting, via the idea of a history, carry less weight than his.

    Coming at this strictly as a public weight, and not as a form of forum history, I'd say that Gordon's words carry more weight here.

    I'm not going near the idea of who is saying what, or trust, just the observation of who has more weight in these areas as form of long term public history.

    For whatever weight it may be worth, etc.

    As for posting specific data and names, thus the idea of 'proof'... that's when it gets dangerous. Real fingers pointing at real people can get serious, real fast.

    No judgement of negative or positive in any direction, just observing, is all.

    I'm not sure if Gordon will post logs..if he can I think he will. Considering how detailed their information is on their series of articles on our nuclear weapons, how they work(stuff I'd never read before), it's clear Gordon tends towards putting out the hard facts when it's possible(and safe) to do so. And, yes, his track record in the public arena does make him a heavy hitter. that said, he's not always right.

    Let's wait and see.

    Check out JimStoneFreelance.com. He is reporting very similar stuff about imminent all-out attacks on the web. The alt press on the web and US guns are all that stands between the zios and complete tyranny. They appear to be ramping up runs toward both.

    I've found that the logical fallacy "ad hominem" can work many ways; your post sort of illustrates this.

    I'm not overly concerned with the messenger (though it is a site that makes money off readers & has a motive to tend to the sensational), I'm looking at the message and accepting a message without some sort of evidence just seems like a poor decision.

    You can really point fingers all you want at Army Cyber Command, I guarantee their fingerprints are ALL OVER this site, and his; partially from people like me that are genuine consumer and possibly for other reasons.

    The claims made by VT will have very clear, direct evidence to back them up and will implicate an IP address, not a person or even a direct organization (you see Ft Huachuca is a "DISA hub" site, LOTS of organizations traffic goes through there to the "wild" internet).

    anyway... the statements were a serious implication that deserves validation.

    I'm just saying this: I'm a part of a Computer Network Defense team; this is the new program the US army is putting all of it's "cyber warfar" emphasis under so I understand very well exactly the things he is talking about & I'll tell you this... we are not stupid.

    If I were to probe a site (which I wouldn't officially... we are reactive right now, not proactive... I'm sure other organizations are doing the proactive work) it would not be done with an easily traced back path to one of our major hub sites.

    The article seems to me to be this: Buzz words and fear leverage on vaguely understood concepts; I can expand on this but I think it's fairly clear.
