(CNSNews.com) - While Soviet troops occupied Afghanistan in 1980, Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) worked in close concert with high level Kremlin officials to alter the direction of U.S. policy, according to documents made available through a KGB defector.

Details concerning Kennedy's correspondence with KGB agents are included in the writings of the late Vasiliy Mitrokhin who defected to Britain in 1992. The Mitrokhin papers highlight a meeting that took place at the behest of Kennedy between former Sen. John Tunney (D-Calif.) and KGB agents in Moscow on March 5, 1980.

Note that the article is continued at the source, and should be consulted there.

This ties in with some posts here during the last week concerning Kennedy's dealings with the USSR during Reagan's presidency and on the possibility that Tunny was actually a KGB agent.

Unfortunately I don't recall the thread titles.

Well, I just did a keyword search for Tunney and turned up four more of them (not this one), but not the one I was thinking of. This obviously is a matter that deserves some study.

The sadder thing is that Kennedy is the less bad of the two senators from the state of Massachusetts!

--a post a couple of weeks ago laid out the case that there was a senator compromised and actively working as a KGB agent--and furthermore that the only likely suspect was Sen. John Tunney of California--an intimate of Teddy---

And since the MSM will not publish this treason for all to see, this should show U.S. all which side they're on. ALL of our enemies sides.

Seems to me that we "conspiracy theorists" have been saying this kind of stuff since the 1960s. It's a burden being proven right all the time. Anyone who read Gary Allen's "None Dare Call it Conspiracy" wouldn't be surprised at all.

I've got the Cape Cod Orka sighted-in on a whole different angle which we won't go into here, but on THIS issue…as much as it pains me to say it, I don't think this is an issue we want to press.

What we need is clarity. Are we being manipulated by selective use of the facts? Terrorism is terrorism, whether it's directed at us, or our adversary. Are your tax dollars being spent in accordance with your values?

"Any government that supports, protects or harbours terrorists is complicit in the murder of the innocent and equally guilty of terrorist crimes."

This is a very good read on the topic:
http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qa3827/is_200312/ai_n9318614

an excerpt:
"Sen. Kennedy played a major role during the 1970s in Grafting the restrictions that made it so difficult for the FBI and CIA to do the job of protecting the American people. One of the most pernicious restrictions was the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) passed in 1978. President Franklin Roosevelt, in 1940, had ordered the FBI to wiretap Nazis and Communists because they were operating in the United States on behalf of hostile foreign powers. Every President after him used the inherent power of the President to order wiretapping for national security purposes.

Kennedy told the Senate Intelligence Committee in 1976 that "For the last five years, I and others in the Senate have labored unsuccessfully to place some meaningful statutory restrictions on the so-called inherent power of the Executive to engage in surveillance." When Congress discussed legislation to require a court warrant to wiretap enemy agents and terrorists, Kennedy and the ACLU began a campaign to raise the barriers as high as possible. Kennedy introduced the concept in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Bill that required evidence that someone was providing classified information to a foreign intelligence service. Someone who "only" had a clandestine relationship with a foreign intelligence officer and carried out covert influence operations for a foreign power could not be wiretapped. When we see the KGB reports we can understand why Kennedy would want this provision in the law. Kennedy was not a KGB agent. He also was not "a useful idiot" who was used by the KGB without understanding what he was doing. Kennedy was a collaborationist. He aided the KGB for his own political purposes."

Very much as dear Theodore claimed about Abu Garib
prison.... Only now it seems that the KGB in the
early 80's, reopened under a new co-management.
Hope this can be made to stick. His father's fruit
did not roll far from the tree, and just like his
old man Joe, Teddy seemed to be looking for gangster-
like thugs to help him out with his career....JJ61
