Annie Jacobsen: The Secret History of the CIA 

"I will shatter the CIA into a million pieces and scatter it to the wind"--- JFK RIP Sir!

I mean good gosh, her voice and a glass of wine will set the mood ☺️

Her voice surprises,gets you relaxed 😌 then she kills with that 🖊 pen. Then she vanishes.

incredible work!!...but I must say this: FINALLY!!!! A woman's voice I can actually enjoy listening to.

Annie jacobsen should do her own podcast. Its amazing. And amazing woman.

"The Devil's Chessboard: Allen Dulles, the CIA and the Rise of America's Secret Government" by David Talbot

She couldn't be too threatening. She's still on You Tube and hasn't complained about fighting to keep her information on You Tube. She must be a gatekeeper of some sort. Or, veil it as fiction.

Annie (at the end of talk) posed the great question "...was any of this (acts of war) necessary?" Fact is that there is always a reason behind everything. Sometimes the reason is obvious but often not so to the observer. Fact is; the sole purpose of waging aggressive wars is, and always has been, the pillage of the wealth of foreign peoples nations. The blonde lady touched on the answer which has been comprehensively exposed by guy's like John Perkins book "The New Confessions of an Economic Hit Man", Naomi Klein's book, "The Shock Doctrine", Oliver Bullough's book "Money Land", Noreena Hertz book "The Silent Takeover", etc. etc........ There are huge profits to be made out of waging wars and installing corrupt dictators who obligingly hand over his nations assets to the kleptocrates running the brutal Corporatocracy Empire from Washington HQ.

War on terror lol you can label anyone a terriost ANYONE

Annie is one of the most fascinating journalists I have ever listened to. 💥🙏

I LOVE THIS WOMANS VOICE !!! ❤

Well done, Ms. Jacobsen.

The team that's pictured and said to have only two left makes ya wonder how many were killed because they knew to much ?

I tell ya Annie Jacobsen is one helluva of Journalist. I have seen a number of her talks here on RU-vid and man does she ever get it right. In a world of fluff pop journalism her depth and insights just Rock.. !!! Thank you Annie :)

Great watch, listen and wotta treat at the end there...was not expectin' that. Cheers!

Gulf of Tonkin was a false flag... come on, Anne!!

You are so easy to listen to. An hour flies by and I'm left wanting to hear more. Just discovered you and I'm hooked!

great channel! Great videos!

Great presentation. Glad I found this video.

Annie gives great presentations.

I’ll take one Health Alteration to go, please. Billy Waugh in Sudan and his cover is an old man on a fitness craze - that’s insanely funny! I feel like somebody’s put that in a screenplay. Annie Jacobsen is brilliant at laying out the facts and letting us draw our own conclusions. Here’s a person who, I think, can help me immensely in my personal affairs.

She covers such unsettling topics...yet her voice is so supremely relaxing! She's like the voice of Mother, the ship computer in 'Alien', whilst counting down the ship's self-destruct!

Annie is a wonderful journalist and CIA asset who is in place to show us what we are getting for our money. She has a gift for keeping a positive attitude about activities that are otherwise mighty negative. I sincerely thank you Annie for helping make this medicine go down ......it's a necessity to know these things and try to keep them in context.

SOG stands for Studies and Observation Group. They were Special Forces troops who conducted reconnaissance "across the fence" in the countries that harbored the NVA. Many of them ended up in Delta Force as original cadre.

Annie Jacobsen, great work, very impressive. Thank you for sharing.

From the thumbnail I thought she was sitting at a piano, and this was gonna be a CIA sing-a-long

Brilliant sounds

Edwin Black's War Against the Weak was well known before the book ever hit the bookstores. Not only did it receive a large amount of advance publicity from the publisher and the author, but it had War Against the Weak: Eugenics and America's Campaign to Create A Master Race already become a cause célèbre among historians of science working in the field of the history of eugenics, many of whom had been contacted by Black during the course of the book's preparation. It was billed as a far-reaching revision of our understanding of eugenics that would “tear away the thickets of mystery surrounding the eugenics movement around the world.” The author's central thesis is that Nazi racial hygiene and its ultimate manifestations in the Holocaust were imported lock, stock and barrel from the USA, and that, indeed, it was US ruling elites who hatched the idea of creating a master Aryan race by selective breeding and then passed it along to the Nazis. More specifically, Black argues that the *Rockefeller Foundation* (RF) and the Carnegie Institution of Washington (CIW) funded much of the American-based movement, both at home and abroad, and so sat in the driver's seat guiding Nazi racial hygienists along their fateful path. EMBO reports. Governments are now in *LOCKSTEP* with the Rockefeller Foundation's plan for the world, published in May 2010. We are in *LOCKDOWN* as recommended in that plan. !!!

Gate keeper talking bs

The Ford/Rumsfield/Cheney photo is sickening.

She misses the fact that those forty year old “para military” operators started as an 18 year old recruit. They are made through experience and training, not sprung full grown from the head of Zeus.

Not only is she well researched, highly intelligent and trained, but one of the side benefits of listening to interviews by Annie Jacobsen; she's not only fairly easy on the eyes (fairly attractive) but her voice is like an autotuned, soothing ASMR, very pleasing and easy to listen to while still following the conversation. Incredible woman! Great interview. Was fascinating also to hear more tidbits on stuff like what really happened with Che Guavara, Cuba and JFK and so on.

Read The Secret Team by L Fletcher Prouty. You’ll get these same facts by someone who helped run it.

I could listen to her read the phone book.

Nice song for the close. Not an easy situation Hopefully we will start operating from the position of Love instead of fear.

Love her work.

Taking down 7 countries in 5 years even recently asked on the Floor of Congress , Washington DC. Allan.

at least the guy on the guitar is pretty good

I'd love to see Annie and Cathy O'Brian give a speech together.

So smart!

Looking forward to the remainder of the lecture. Quick point. Col L. Fletcher Prouty, Air Force liaison for OSS/CIA and, as such, handled ALL air assets for the Agency. He tells of post-war Okinawa being massively stocked with invasion materiel for Honshu Island assault. After surrender those supplies were not needed for Japanese purposes. Prouty, in a casual conversation with Harbormaster asked when the shipments would begin to the States. He was told that half was going to Seoul, and the other to Haiphong. Col Edward Lansdale was in charge of the terror campaign to drive Catholic North Vietnamese to Buddhist South Vietnam with a series of well-placed plastic satchel bombs. Ho Chi Minh was encouraged to war against French at the same time DeGaulle was an ally and compatriot. Treachery at the highest. Lansdale was the on-hand torturer of Yamamoto’s driver to reveal the various stashes of the Yamashita ‘Golden Lilly’ treasure of THOUSANDS OF TONS of bullion and unknown amounts of art and gems. The recovered treasure never made to US Treasury. Instead it funded the ‘black budget’ of Dulles/CIA/Rockefeller/300. Fast forward: Black Eagle Trust Gold Bond Issue details the secret events involving that same vast gold hoard leading up to the hoax of Sept 11, WTC/Pentagon/Carlyle/MI6/CIA/Mossad. Absolutely the key to subsequent events and essential look into the run-up to permanent war/permanent peace/permanent enslavement.

Went through Eugene Or 1979 on an 8000 mile bicycle tour. I stayed at Mike Conners house . He was a waiter and was watching the stranger on the back porch disassemble and grease the crank. He was so amazed at how I did it he learned how and when I came back through a year later had a used bike shop just south of the tracks and river road. Then he got a real bike shop in the bus mall and he and Aleeta ran it forever and lived happily ever after. That's how things go in Eugene. Very unique city

When she was saying the guy was holding his gun wrong that it was "almost like a prop" That would probably be true considering the guy on the right doesn't even have a clip in his gun.

13:40. SOG stands for Studies and Observations Group.

The only problem I have with any of you comments is that when you kill an enemy with a sniper rifle, especially one that can pick up the vein on a leaf across a valley, your war gets very personal as you sight for a head shot at 2500 yards. In addition, there are no wars that are fought by gentlemen. As a former combat veteran I can say that war is the stupid and most inhumane way that politicians and leaders have ever come up with to do to other humans. And they've been doing it since time immortal.

Yet when citizens are treated fairly and respectively people dont come up with such plots

Some disturbing facts about Nobel prize winner.

Project Mockingbird I would buy tickets for her 'project mockingbird' comedy special.

She should write a book...

SOG - I thought it was Study and Observation Group.

This is John O. Brennan she's talking about here !!!! While he's one of the modern day culprits, he's still part of the machine.

Talk to your member of congress and vote no for them if they vote no on blocking such executive orders. Now I am a target right?

Military Assistance Command..Vietnam...Studies and Observation Group... .....MACV. SOG...MISSY..oh and ..YES its necessary .thing is ..its ment to be no holds barred ..now we have never ending actions ..because of the continuous flow of $$$ to those in power..do it right the 1st time and never worry about them again

Jeds-Stay Active !!

Vietnam: let's send some 18 year olds to go fight the guerilla assassins we trained. Should be fine

She has a beautiful voice.

Did she mention that she has written a book?

President Trump flew into Phoenix. My friend jack was having a picnic and the phone rang and he told his friend that he would probably fly right over as he is an aviation man and is very familiar with winds and certain flight paths and figured he would come in over north Phoenix low enough to wave at heading south. So the nieghbor came over excited to see AF-1. He's a mechanic and pilot...and loves planes. Soon drones began to appear around his house. And he said they made no noise and were large enough to hold real nasty weapons. They watched the picnic for a minute and ran facial recognition And just watched ..an old fat guy with weenies on a grill ...and kids playing about and some rather amazed nieghbors. I'm glad they have that capability. The eagle still has claws. Grandfather was in the law dept of the Pennsy and President Hoover had an unscheduled secret service delay. So they pulled in and secret service handed 38 Smith and Wessons to the law dept whom formed a flying squad around him . All these men were strangers. But Hoover is an old mining engineer and beelined to Gramps to talk . As he is the son of senator Clark who is the only man to build a railroad to his Montana mine. And he did it again in Clarkdale built the rail spur to perkinsville. Which I surveyed 1972-1973 USGS...Gramps was born in St Joseph Mo. Great Grams told me Mr Howard carried Jesse James casket with Bill Bixby in the coffin. I think she said Bixby. She was telling me the whole town was in on it and Jesse James changed his named... Gramps doesn't look like anyone in the family....so a lot of money went out to cover up this and create identities and silence a lot of people. He was a British agent and was in on 4 assassinations and he shot John Wilkes Booth for mouthing off in Texas. History is strange . So I have a picture of Gramps yukking it up with Hoover . They even gave him a pistol and badge and were swearing to shoot each other and handed out badges and laughed . Hoover had his badge on too. What is the connecting force ? How could they pass out badges and guns to strangers....well they were all 32°- 33° Masons.. Whatever is said and done among them is buried deep in the ocean of silence.

She acts like she's the 1st civilian to ever talk about this, the naiveté is Strong in this one... try 70+ years. In the 70's & 80's these guys were Everywhere... :>/ And her continued reference to "gentlemanly war" was outdated after WW2. It's hard to believe she's around my age...unbelievable...

It might not be right but it's legal.We have been doing this before the civil war.Look up the Federal case of Duran vs Holland."There are some people in the absence of legitimate government,are too dangerous to ignore and too guilty to not go unpunished." President James.K.Polk

Everyones gangsta until the CIA come knocking at the front door.

Tell us about the Baron de France. Allan.

I was listening to Annie as I was falling asleep listening to "Annie Jacobson, 'Surprise, Kill, Vanish'". What I heard was so shocking, that I completely woke up and couldn't get back to sleep. I was going to post a comment, but they are turned off and I can imagine why. I have not listened to this video, yet, but I wanted to post my comment here. Now. She said that every President had a code name for the CIA assassins from Kennedy to O'bama, with one exception. Bill Clinton. She said that they came to him with a suggestion to "take someone out", and he wouldn't have any part of it and never wanted anything like that to come up again. BILL CLINTON! Anyone who has done the most minimal research on Clinton has to know he has a "body count" of at least 50 know victims. The most famous being, "The Boys on the Tracks". It was through Annie's work on the book, "Operation Paperclip" that I became familiar with the Nazi relocation scenario here in the U.S. In reading her WIKI bio, and I know not everything posted everywhere is true, but I think I gleaned enough to see red flags about her. Something ain't right with her.

Rumour has it her friend worked in a Home supply store.

I think she mean Studies and Observations Group not Operations Group

The future is bright no more wars love love love love

You think you’re importantly asking the question of necessity Annie? For humanity’s sake, woman, where is your own moral outrage that such preemptive killing is only in defence of a bully nation’s economic imperialism?!

A lot of haters in the comment section, I actually think she is very good at staying neutral in her politics while writing, she has done her research well and if she was misconstrued by a source it still makes for a good story

I think there was a similar act or acts signed right after the Oklahoma bombing, like right after.

This is a Brillant!

Nicaragua also and Pinochet my time. Allan.

Jimmy Page Eugene..what a song huh?

I can see why Bill Clinton wouldn't have any need for such an organization .

I am not sure, but I think, I think, Mrs Annie, you know much better!!!

Great book. Operation paperclip was also wild. She is an excellent writer. Looking forward to the next one. Keep up the awesome work.

BBC Documentaries always say join the Dots. Allan.

Can you do Secret history of the UN next?

Me: *sees video suggestion in main feed* “Oh shit this is gonna be fucking good”

Okay, I see how this works. 1) You write a rule that says you don't kill. (2) You write another rule that you do kill. (3) You tell the world rule number (1). You follow rule number (2).

What an amazing woman!

General Langsdale!

I'd like some info on the pic at the 30 minute mark, if looks like neither of the men have magazines in their rifles and are carrying cordless tools too, what's going on there?

Wish she hadn’t concentrated so much on Waugh. He has a great part of the history, but there is already a full biography of him out since 2003. It would have been interesting to hear from some of Reagan era Central America guys, and some of the guys from the GWOT.

My son went to Iraq I respect him he was just a puppet Patriot!

What is a CAT team’s radius of operation? We know that there are snipers who can neutralise targets at distances over two miles. How is it that no Presidents have been so retired early? Has NO ONE ever considered it? (I have no idea who this question is directed at.)

The CIA is the modern-day equivalent of the Roman praetorian guard😎

Magic box.

I Was Number 1000 To Like!

War is a all out destroy 1. The enemy forces, including C3, 2. The enemy peoples will to fight war, 3. The enemy's capability to fight war. The quicker it is over the better. Get a clue ,option 2 is when diplomacy fails. Option 3 is to preclude option 2. Simple facts.

nikolai volkoff was a professional wrestler

25:35...lethal direct action...targeted victims.

In a perfect America Mike Rowe would be president, and Annie Jacobsen would be his Press Secretary, or given liberal access to his time.

Brad Westerdahl was in on that Vietnam business also. He was 42 years old on his first tour/insertion into th e Bush. "You couldn't carry enough water".

It makes sense to send the battle hardened tier 1 operators to carry out targeted attacks, but how do those operators become as skilled as they are unless they start out as young men in the theatre of war? It seems to be a catch 22

She's describing Bill Paxton's character in 'True Lies'😆 She got bamboozled

RIP Billy Waugh!

In ladder was also trained by theSAS so Andy Mcnab says in his book 7Troop

..I did read her book: Area 51 'Tis excellent.

That picture of Cheney and Rumsfeld in the Oval Office in the 70's with Ford is simply chilling. How at ease they looked there then... and of course both were with Reagan and Bush Sr for the next few decades. Of course they had the confidence to come back and do what they did in 2001-08. Lol, remember after the election in 04, Bush Jr. spent the next year trying to convince the nation to give *Social Security* to Wall Street... just a few years before the giant crash. Imagine if that had somehow succeeded.

25:30 MARSOC was not around until 2006.
