But author is noticed that was very frivolous with facts in his previous articles. He just second to former colonel Lunev.

I understand that KGB operatives abroad was numerous an omni-potent and shrewd. (Vlad Putin was one of them and see how good president of Russia came out of him:)).

But to say that KGB ruled all anti-war movement if 70th IMHO is very exxageration.
IF KGB was so all mighty why it cann't convert West into soviet beleiving completely?

I red some accounts and opinions of some people today that all decidents of Soviet Union at same time was on payroll of CIA. They say more that himan right organizations is CIA affiliations.

It is resembling thing like Pacepa tells. But I don't beleive in it either.

This kind of propaganda would only be believed by those on the left who were anti-American to begin with (like John Kerry).

The power that Communist thought had over the European elite, and the American media was palpable.

The media then influenced the people, and what resulted did irreparable damage to this country........which was their intent.

The KGB/Communist operatives had far more success in damaging America than most people realize. This is just further evidence.

Because starting way back in the forties some of us were warned IN OUR SCHOOLS about the Communists intention to take over this country. Of course, that was before the Communists took over the schools.

And because some of us remember that Kruschev said (I believe it was in 1953) the following:

"We will bury you. And we will do it from the inside."

The KGB didn't rule it, but they planted seeds in a fertile ground.

Some, not all, of the students in the long haired hippie college I went to in the late 60's clearly bought into these lies, with great energy. They hated 'the man' and distrusted the government, and this played into it well.

And even now, my mother-in-law here on the left coast, who is in her early 80's, shows off to me the peace signs she makes for the demonstrations she goes to, and her husband explains how Israel has blown any chance they have their own nation by imprisoning and terrorizing the poor Palestinians for the last 50 years.

By not recognizing the real dangers that these ideas have, their large capacity to mislead millions of people (my neighbors, my relatives, my fellow workers, my fellow students, ...), by discrediting the work of the KGB in helping to plant the seeds of these ideas as frivolous or exaggerations because clearly the KGB didn't have the direct power to order this (and if they did, we'd all be Communists now), you miss out on the real dangers we continue to face.

Wake up - we are at war - have been at war for a century now, and will continue to be at war with the faithless forces of terror and tyranny.
