Throughout the Cold War, NATO conducted large-scale terror campaigns in several European countries using a network of secret agents and neo-Nazis. We take the examples of Italy & Belgium and tie them into the larger NATO project.

for anyone else relistening, i would highly recommend checking out ghost stories for the end of the world! fantastic, well-researched series on the years of lead in belgium

Jose Duszar

Can anyone recommend reading on the US class compromise managed by the AFL/CIO alluded to around 34:00

The Nega Chin

Three years too late but yeah, the greatest what if of the 20th century

TurpStrankton

One of the Brabant robberies that always sticks out to me was the robbery/shooting of a gunsmith who was building prototype silencers for a CIA front company, and had refused to deliver the order after he decided the buyers were sketchy

Josh

Yeah, I recommend reading about it

Nick Tucker

Bless you TruAnon I needed this this morning

John

On the topic of Belgium, i really want TrueAnon to look into the Dutroux case and its coverup

justdave

Poor Gipetto, I imagine him working in his shop, late into the night and just nodding his head and trying to ignore his satanic spawn - 'Yesh Pinocchio, thats very interesting, no I haven't listened to Jordan Peterson yet'

Professor Jokes

Belgium has the smallest gap between rich and poor in the world.

SF

iirc they did touch on L'affaire Dutroux with in the very first episode, but I agree a deep dive would be great. I'm not sure if you listen to Ghost Stories for the End of the World but he's done a great Dutroux episode

repairmanman

i will never forgive nato for making my family move to new jersey

Kurt Brendel

This might be too esoteric but I think it would be great if you devoted an episode, or part of an episode, to the assassination of leftist director Pier Paolo Pasolini

malpertuis

My dad spent time as a guest of SAVAK. I'd say more than a third of his generation was detained during their lives. By his telling. He had to get a mullah friend to attest he wasn't a communist to get out - cuz no communist would have a mullah as a friend

Mike Bess

Name for an Italian Ladies' Right-Wing terrorist organization? Gomorrah Girls.

malpertuis

These episodes are so good - real foundational stuff.

Sam Zeng

Wow its a new episode

Sander Emerick

I am a Disney Exec and you must remove the Nazi Pinocchio character and also 137 of the other episodes on this Patreon

CC

Thanks for always mentioning the Pope assination attempt. Sometimes I think I imagined it. But yes, they shot the pope and tried to blame communism.

Kamran Husain

Nazi Pinocchio may be the most powerful character ever incarcerated

Jonathan lees

Hang out front any railway station in Italy and it won’t long to find someone a victim of being a bit people oriented politically speaking

John

Check out a podcast called Ghost Stories for the end of the world. He does a deep dive of gladio.

James Murray

Please do an episode on Solidarnosc in Poland!

carl

Po-nazi-o.

John McElroy

How about Greg Poulgrain - Battleground Indonesia book? Would be an epic guest

Darius Faulkner

You guys should do an ep on 7/7. Get Tom Secker on as guest

Rob M

HAHAHAHA I spit out my cereal at nazi Pinocchio

Baron

Men will literally join a clandestine terror squad before going to therapy lol

TrueAnonPod

Also really recommend that show the guys great

D.K. Wilson

“You had years of torture, murder, rape, arson”… Sounds like the story of how the U.S. came to be. So, why not make that way of, ummm, “campaigning,” part and parcel of U.S. insertion into any and everything it seeks to control?

AbeLinkin

Are we supposed to listen to these and conclude that we’re screwed because that’s all I’m getting these days. I am disheartened

Dark Alliance

I second that. Gladio hit through and through. Pasolini also did a film on Piazza Fontana.

Danny

everyone go listen to the “ghost stories for the end of the world” eps about the Belgium horror show

Worldisafuck

Honestly I’d be cool with thunder storm sounds throughout every episode

Stanley Schultz

What’s the gladio documentary that they referred to ?

kelsey

Every time I talk to my Ukrainian roommate about this war I want to impose a No Fly Zone again before I get dissuaded. The situation is desperate, her family now lives in occupied Russian territory.

Drew

Please consider doing a non-NATO follow up on how there was a near-identical program in Asia for South Korea, Japan, and the island of Formosa. I think that stuff is even less well-known than Gladio in Europe.

Salt M. Bank

Awhile back you mentioned doing an episode on Turkey, hope one of the nato episodes goes into Turkey more

George E

Anyone got further recs on reading? I wrote down Ben's recommendation and I know there's Daniele Ganser's book "NATO's Secret Armies".

uleg0

apparently it wasnt even julien lahaut who yelled “vive la republique”. but yeah killed by some hitmen hired by the industrialists from union miniere (now rebranded to umicore, and known for their factories’ immense polution and health violations). reading about belgian parapolitics is fucking depressing.

justdave

I consider the other fellas as my support network

Daniel Goffe

This is cool but I have to @Trueanon over something here. I’m from UK. We had a chance in 2017 to elect Corbyn, the most anti NATO and anti Imperialist Labour Prime Minister ever and Russian oligarchs donated to the Tory party, and were all up in the Tory press and even bought a UK newspaper, the London Evening Standard. They did the same shit in 2019 GE but even harder. So when people from the States say, ‘why are you on the fence, you wet noodles, and you won’t come out for Putin?’ Yeah we don’t support Biden, we don’t support Zelensky, we don’t support NATO, but we sure as fuck don’t like Putin because his people had a choice to stick out of our election but instead they backed the UK Ruling class over the working class in the best chance we might ever have to get a Socialist Prime Minister! Corbyn would have been good for Russia, he wanted the Minsk accords, he knew that Russia had been failed by the west. There was literally no excuse other than greed as to why they wanted the Tories in. So fence sitting isn’t really fence sitting, it’s actually intelligent observation that both regimes are corrupt in Ukraine and the interests of our working class are incompatible with the oligarch class. We were 800k votes away from winning the popular vote in 2017! The ruling class will never make a mistake like that again, and the Russian oligarchs in London helped them to do it(and were big donors, not a small minority). Just had to get that off my chest. I appreciate what you all are doing with the pod, but there’s angles to this also. Thanks.

nick tolliday

i mean honestly whatever bro, the other team was doing all the same kind of shit via the baader meinhof gang and various palestinians

Gulb

What’s the logic here? I don’t think this episode was about which side was worse. The “team” who’s actions should matter to you is the one that acts in your name.

Jonny Gnatzinger

the raf was quite good (at least in the beginning)! And they weren't in fact connected to the east

Natalie

this shouldn't be behind a paywall!!! so good and such crucial information!! I voted for the tucker one to be public, and that might get more streams, but this one's even more important in these times I feel like

Natalie

"various palestinians" am I supposed to be against that

Stefano

What the C.I.A. did in Italy was textbook Jakarta Method...

Cory

Textbook CIA it seems.

Daniel Goffe

I’d also add that it’s true that ending the fed as the reserve for global payments would increase the chance of a socialist government in England and across all nations that use dollar reserves. So if Putin was playing the long game for that by getting a government he’d have more leverage over (Johnson, Tories) then there’s an argument for that being better in the long run, but it could end up having unpredictable results, ie there could be more USA influence over the UK and EU (if dollar reserves remained in those specific areas) whereas China would have more influence in Africa and Asia. That would mean basically there would likely not be a chance for socialism in Europe unless there was some kind of change in the USA politics. Furthermore the Russians weren’t the sole cause of Corbyn not getting elected, the secret services, bourgeois media, ruling class and managerial technocrat career politicians of the Labour Party did most. I also want to thank Trueanon, they have taught me a lot about geopolitics and I’m grateful for that.

N

this shit is so depressing to listen to. Feels like it was a massive fuck up for the Comintern to not seize the moment immediately after the war.

N

lmao yeah dude cause Baader-Meinhof did a decades long terror campaign throughout all of Europe

Cyclops giraffe

Nazi Pinocchio's nose grows when you lie about your racial heritage
