A quiet coup d'état on the internet





(THIS ARTICLE IS MACHINE TRANSLATED by Google from Norwegian)

In October, a former envoy for President Jimmy Carter, Steve Pieczenik, said Hillary Clinton had conducted a "silent coup" on the Internet to take over as president – but that key people from the FBI and US intelligence started a counter-coup. It should then have been them (and not the Russians) who served material to Julian Assange and WikiLeaks. They are going to sue Clinton, Pieczenik said, and talks about a second American revolution in support of Donald Trump. Was this game one October surprise – a desperate propaganda matrix in the final stages of the presidential campaign? Or was it a real revolt within the US secret services?

Central man. When FBI Chief James Comey was forced to resume investigations into Hillary Clinton ten days before the election, it came as a result of a riot inside the FBI. In July, Comey and the FBI dropped the charges against Clinton. She had been "extremely careless," but her handling of graded material was not criminal, Comey said. Many in the FBI were upset. When a new email scandal flared up around her adviser Huma Abedin and her ex-husband, the conflict once again came to the surface – and the emails were not just about nude pictures.

Steve Pieczenik says Hillary Clinton's corruption opens the way for the United States to be ruled by other states.

Steve Pieczenik has worked for many of the US Presidents – from Richard Nixon to George HW Bush – and has held several key positions, including as Deputy Assistant Secretary of State. He has also been an adviser on terrorism issues.

In 1978 he was President Carter's envoy in Italy, where he was to "mediate" in the kidnapping of former Italian Prime Minister Aldo Moro. According to Moro's wife, Aldo Moro in 1974 was threatened with life in the United States. Fun would work with the political left to achieve stability in Italy. Henry Kissinger had then said that if Moro insisted on this, he would have to pay dearly. On March 16, 1978, Italy's parliament was to vote on this "historic compromise". On his way to Parliament, Moro was kidnapped – in a military professional operation. The bodyguards in the car were shot, Fun was taken and kept hidden by the Red Brigades. Prime Minister Guilio Andreotti, Interior Minister Francesco Cosiga and the Americans would not negotiate. Steve Pieczenik told in 2008 that Moro had begun to reveal graded material. They had to let him die. So, in practice, fun was executed by the Christian Democratic Right, with support – or on demand – from the Americans.

Quiet coup d'état. Ten days before the presidential election, Steve Pieczenik said that the FBI and US intelligence were going to stop Hillary Clinton, that was not a statement from anyone. Clinton's corruption is a danger to US security, he said. The Saudi Arabians and partly Qatar are financing not only Hillary Clinton, but ISIS as well. Clinton's closest adviser Huma Abedin has direct ties to Saudi extremism. At the same time, Secretary of State Clinton, in accordance with Qatar and the Saudi Arabians, has been driving the Middle East wars, like the one in Libya. Pieczenik says that Hillary Clinton's corruption opens the way for the United States to be ruled by other states, and that a sufficient number of US secret services have decided to conduct a "silent coup". The months ahead will probably reveal if that's right.
