Highest Ranking Cold War Defector: The KGB Invented ‘Liberation Theology’
Breitbart.com ^ | 2 May 2015 | Thomas D. Williams, Ph.D.

Posted on 05/02/2015 3:40:51 PM PDT by Rockitz

In a startling new interview, a 3-star general and former head of Communist Romania’s secret police who defected to the United States in 1978, claims that the Theology of Liberation was the creation of the KGB, who exported it to Latin America as a way of introducing Marxism into the continent.

Ion Mihai Pacepa has been called “the Cold War’s most important defector,” and after his defection, the Romanian government under Nicolae Ceausescu placed two death sentences and a $2 million bounty on his head. During the more than ten years that Pacepa worked with the CIA, he made what the agency described as “an important and unique contribution to the United States.”

He is reported in fact to have given the CIA “the best intelligence ever obtained on communist intelligence networks and internal security services.”

....

Pacepa says that he learned details of the KGB involvement with Liberation Theology from Soviet General Aleksandr Sakharovsky, Communist Romania’s chief foreign intelligence adviser, who later became head of the Soviet espionage service, the PGU.

In 1959, Sakharovsky went to Romania together with Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev, for what would become known as “Khrushchev’s six-day vacation.” According to Pacepa, Khrushchev “wanted to go down in history as the Soviet leader who had exported communism to Central and South America.” He chose Romania as his point of export, since it was the only Latin country in the Soviet bloc and provided a logical liaison to Latin America because of the similarity of language and culture.

Pacepa claims that the Theology of Liberation was not merely infiltrated by the KGB, it was actually the brainchild of Soviet intelligence services.

Obama will read about it today and be shocked. He'll call for an investigation. He'll get to the bottom of it. He'll have Reverend Wright testify in front of a Special Select Committee. He'll . . .

How many more days? . . .

Thanks for posting. For those that haven't, please see ETL's excellent page (Here) of Obama and his communist ties. Every voter should have seen these before Nov 08'.

I'm so mad the MSM didn't vet Obama. Now they're not going to vet Hillary either. Anyone born in 92' is now 23 yrs old! The 'kids' know nothing about the Clintons. . I guess it's up to us. .

You’re welcome, and thank you. It really is incredible how he got elected, not once, but twice, with all that was known about him. So many freaking idiots in our country today.

Still in all a Polish priest, an Illinois HS football player, and an English housewife turned politician brought down the world’s most evil empire. Marxist theology didn’t do the KGB much good.

POPE FRANCIS OPENED VATICAN DOORS TO LATIN AMERICAN LEADERS OF MARXIST LIBERATION THEOLOGY.

According to Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller, prefect for the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Pope Francis has close ties with liberation theology, the same discaterio that once condemned the movement. In the 1980s the CDF under then-Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger attacked liberation theology as borrowing “from various currents of Marxist thought“.

In the 1980’s, by orders of Pope John Paul II, Cardinal Ratzinger, the prefect of the CONGREGATION FOR THE DOCTRINE OF THE FAITH, issued the following INSTRUCTION ON CERTAIN ASPECTS OF THE “THEOLOGY OF LIBERATION” in which it was condemning the inclusion of the “class struggle” and other tenets of the ideology and Marxist praxis under the Christian cover of a so called liberation theology.

“Your theology helps the transformation of Latin America more than millions of books on Marxism” Fidel Castro to Leonardo Boff and Frei Beto in the presence of the Spanish Bishop in Brazil, Pedro Casáldiga, C.M.F., who plays end the phrase in his book Nicaragua, combat and prophecy, Madrid, helped, 1986, p.134

One has to think Obama and Putin are still working in unison for the WW Commie utopia. Community organizer. . Yeah, right. . Has anyone ever pinned down that Obama was at Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow in the early 80s? Read a few pieces on it, but I couldn't find proof. . Found this: Obama, Former CIA Agent Scroll down for the article.

"The CIA persuaded Columbia University to extend their foreign student program to Obama, now a Columbia student, so that he might travel to Pakistan and enroll in the universities around Karachi in addition to the Patrice Lumumba School in Moscow. The school, one of Russia’s most prestigious universities was founded on February 5, 1960 as The Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia (PFUR). It was renamed the Patrice Lumumba School on February 22, 1961. On February 5, 1992 the university re-adopted its former name."

I heard that story before. It's ridiculous to think Obama would have been spying on the Soviets for the US. He was a die-hard supporter of communism from day-1. While in college he attended pro-Soviet rallies. His "Uncle Frank" that he mentions in his book 'Dreams' was a devoted supporter of the Soviet Union. He wrote poems glorifying them.

Obama’s Red Mentor Praised Red Army
AIM Report | By Cliff Kincaid | April 30, 2008

Barack Obama’s childhood mentor, Frank Marshall Davis, a member of the Moscow-controlled Communist Party USA (CPUSA), wrote a poem dedicated to the Soviet Red Army. “Smash on, victory-eating Red Army,” he declared. He also wrote poems attacking traditional Christianity and the work of Christian missionaries.

The “Red Army” poem goes beyond hoping for the communists to beat the Nazis in World War II and hails the Soviet revolution. It says:

Show the marveling multitudes
Americans, British, all your allied brothers
How strong you are
How great you are
How your young tree of new unity
Planted twenty-five years ago
Bears today the golden fruit of victory!

Thanks for posting the "Red Army" poem. And FM Davis was Obama's main childhood mentor. . Also, written about by AIM, Cliff Kinkaid, in April, 2008. The damn MSM. .

So FM Davis 'planted' Obama and now he's President.

". . Planted twenty-five years ago Bears today the golden fruit of victory!" Thanks a lot. .

What is really sad here is that VIRTUALLY NO ONE will care about this. It is UP TO US to show this to our kids, as examples of what enemies of freedom will do and just how tough our fight was.

This “Liberation Theology” crap NEVER made any sense. The idea of churches, which were generally left alone by right-wing governments, leading the charge for Communism, which means either the destruction of the churches, or, at best, total government control of them.

Yet we kept being told that it was the churches demanding this crap.

This is NO surprise and has been openly claimed and discussed ( and proven time and again) since the commie left first espoused the nasty thinking.

Most people you ask would likely say they never even heard of Liberation Theology. Half the population don't know who the VP is.

For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 15Therefore it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their deeds.

McCain ran such a poor campaign, he essentially endorsed Obama in the final weeks. I knew he wouldn't be any great shakes as President, but giving up the campaign in order to vote in favor of plunging the country ever deeper into debt told everyone everything they needed to know about how he would govern as President. That was a real lose/lose election if ever there was one. The chance of Palin at the helm one day was the only reason I voted for him.
