The CIA, the NSA and Google

by DAVID BROWN | CLEARNFO.com | January 26, 2015

Well, folks here are two articles to really sink your teeth into. I know I will. There appears to be a ton of new data that is well-researched.   The first article is Part 1 of 2 and is jammed-packed with new details I have never seen before about ‘The Highlands Group’ now named the ‘The Highlands Forum’ presumably for legal reasons: to side step the requirements under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA).  After reading Quigley’s ‘Anglo-American Establishment’, I have been keen to find the remnants of the Milner Group’s intellectual and operational offspring and more importantly the current control structure. There may be a few breadcrumbs here and maybe a loaf of bread or two.   In any event, after careful study, I’ll be trying to nit these pieces together perhaps in a future article or video. In the meantime enjoy these two pieces from Nafeez Ahmed…

 INSURGE INTELLIGENCE, a new crowd-funded investigative journalism project, breaks the exclusive story of how the United States intelligence community funded, nurtured and incubated Google as part of a drive to dominate the world through control of information. Seed-funded by the NSA and CIA, Google was merely the first among a plethora of private sector start-ups co-opted by US intelligence to retain ‘information superiority.’

The origins of this ingenious strategy trace back to a secret Pentagon-sponsored group, that for the last two decades has functioned as a bridge between the US government and elites across the business, industry, finance, corporate, and media sectors. The group has allowed some of the most powerful special interests in corporate America to systematically circumvent democratic accountability and the rule of law to influence government policies, as well as public opinion in the US and around the world. The results have been catastrophic: NSA mass surveillance, a permanent state of global war, and a new initiative to transform the US military into Skynet.
