Neocon Academic Glorifies P2OG Terrorism

"From the founding of the United States, the federal government has relied on subterfuge, skullduggery, and secret operations to advance American interests," Henriksen notes, dispensing with the normal neocon tendency to avoid history or at best gloss over it. "Even in the midst of World War II, America's greatest conventional war of the twentieth century, the United States resorted to cloak-and-dagger missions under the Office of Strategic Services. For example, the OSS, along with British intelligence services, aided the French resistance to the German occupation, helping prepare for Europe's liberation. When divisions were absent in the Cold War, American operators instigated them." Indeed?and one such instigation was Operation Gladio, a clandestine "stay-behind" operation sponsored by the CIA and NATO after World War Two to fight against "communist influence," or subvert democratically elected governments not sufficiently reactionary or fascist through terrorism and mass murder (one such incident was the Strage di Bologna, or Bologna massacre, which killed 85 people and wounded more than 200, a collaboration by Ordine Nuovo, the Italian secret service, and the P2 Masonic lodge and part of Operation Gladio's strategia della tensione, or strategy of tension, designed to manipulate public opinion using fear, propaganda, disinformation, psychological warfare, agents provocateurs, and threats of terrorism).
