Deliberate Lies, Strange Deaths and Aggression to the
World Economy
by Fidel Castro Ruz
In one of my reflections I made
reference to gold bars deposited in the basements of the Twin
Towers. This time the subject is quite a bit more complicated and
hard to believe. Almost four decades ago, scientists living in the
United States discovered the Internet, the same way that Albert
Einstein, born in Germany, discovered in his own time the formula
to measure atomic energy.
Einstein was a great scientist and humanist. He contradicted
Newton's laws of physics, held sacred until then. However, apples
continued to fall due to the laws of gravity that had been defined
by Newton. These were two different ways of observing and
interpreting nature, with very little information on this in
Newton's day. I remember what I read more than 50 years ago about
the famous theory of relativity elaborated by Einstein: energy is
equal to mass times the speed of light, called C, squared: E MC2.
The United States money existed and the resources necessary for
such expensive research. The political climate resulting from the
generalized hatred against the brutalities of Nazism in the richest
and most productive nation in the world destroyed by the war,
transformed that fabulous energy into bombs that were dropped over
the defenseless populations of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, causing
hundreds of thousands of deaths and a similar number of people who
were exposed to radiation and subsequently died in the following
years.
A clear example of the use of science and technology with the same
hegemonic goals is described in an article written by the former
official of United States National Security, Gus W. Weiss; it
originally appeared in the magazine Studies in Intelligence, in
1996, even though it was more widely distributed in 2002 under the
title of Deceiving the Soviets. There, Weiss claims the idea of
sending the USSR software that they needed for their industries,
but already contaminated, with the aim of making that country's
economy collapse.
According to notes taken from Chapter 17 of the book At the Abyss:
An Insider's History of the Cold War, by Thomas C. Reed, former
Secretary of the United States Air Force, Leonid Brezhnev told a
group of senior Party officials in 1972: "We Communists have to
string along with the capitalists for a while. We need their
credits, their agriculture and their technology. But we are going
to continue massive military programs, and by the mid-1980s we will
be in a position to return to an aggressive foreign policy designed
to gain the upper hand with the West." This information was
confirmed by the Defense Department in hearings before the House
Committee on Banking and Currency in 1974.
In the early '70s, the Nixon's government advanced the idea of
détente. Henry Kissinger hoped that "over time, trade and
investment may leaven the autarkic tendencies of the Soviet
system", he considered that détente might "invite gradual
association of the Soviet economy with the world economy, and
foster a degree of interdependence that adds an element of
stability to the political relations".
Reagan tended to ignore Kissinger's theories about détente and to
take President Brezhnev's word, but all doubts were removed on July
19, 1981 when the new U.S. President met with President Francois
Mitterand, of France, at the economic G-7 summit in Ottawa. In a
conversation off to the side, Mitterand informed Reagan about the
success his intelligence services had in recruiting a KGB agent.
The man belonged to a section that was evaluating the achievements
of Soviet efforts to acquire western technology. Reagan expressed
great interest in Mitterand's delicate revelations and also thanked
him for his offer to have the material sent to the United States
government.
The dossier, under the name of Farewell, reached the CIA in August
1981. It made it quite clear that the Soviets had been spending
years carrying out their research and development activities. Given
the enormous transfer of technology by radar, computers,
machine-tools and semi-conductors from the United States to the
Soviet Union, one could say that the Pentagon was in an arms race
with itself.
The Farewell Dossier also identified hundreds of case officials,
agents at their posts and other suppliers of information through
the West and Japan. During the first years of détente, the United
States and the Soviet Union had established working groups in
agriculture, civil aviation, nuclear energy, oceanography,
computers and the environment. The aim was to begin to construct
"bridges of peace" between the superpowers. The members of the
working groups had to exchange visits to their
centers...
