Idiots united

Wondering why I should accept the fact that other people blow up the railroad tracks, preventing me going from A to B, I decided to look at the current state of the technophobic scene. First I used the numerous documents that I have archived over the years, which give me an overview of the development of various extremist groups.  I found the research sometimes amusing, but mostly frightening - in view of the  extremely high militancy in subcultures that are closer to each other than they would ever admit. (Source withheld) I have now published some of the results in Jane's Intelligence Review , titled "Technophobic extremists increasingly engage in militancy". Fuelled by widespread disinformation on social media, technophobic extremists are posing an increasing threat to social cohesion. I examine the nature and extent of the challenge faced by law enforcement authorities. Some of the keypoints are: Extremists have long used the traditional sabotage techniques of militan

Die braunen und die gelben Gefahren...

 ... könnten nicht unterschiedlicher sein. Während die eine mir immer mehr von Wahnsinn, Dummheit und Absurdität gepackt worden zu sein scheint, glaube ich in der anderen eine mitunter sehr berechnende Vorgehensweise zu erkennen, die vielleicht sogar darauf abzielt, die andere Gefahr zu instrumentalisieren, um sie dem eigenen politischen Kalkül dienbar zu machen.  Gottes Zoo ist bekanntlich gross und schaut man sich die Menschen an, die derzeit bei den Demonstrationen gegen die leider notwendigen Maßnahmen gegen die Ausbreitung des Coronavirus mitmarschieren, so zweifelt man zumindest bei einem gewissen Prozentsatz der Teilnehmer am gesunden Menschenverstand. Aber was ist schon gesund? Seit Jahren nun verbreitet die " Reichsbewegung – Neue Gemeinschaft von Philosophen" ihre pseudo-intellektuellen Pamphlete. Bereits 2012 ging die Bundesregierung auf diese "Bewegung" ein, die v or einiger Zeit versuchte, auf den Anti-Coronahype aufzuspringen. Bizarrer geht es nicht: 

Atomwaffen Division and the North Korean regime...

. ..both are things which should disappear as soon as possible. But anyway it is interesting to see from time to time the sympathies between both ideologies and the naive right wing worship of a brutal regime. I wrote a brief abstract about "The ongoing right wing enthusiasm for North Korea".  Source:  https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Propaganda_of_North_Korea_(6073871366).jpg The topic is not new, but this time I came across it while Dolf-Alexander Neuhaus and me looked into the smuggling of two Maybach cars from Italy to Rotterdam. Our extensive confidential report showed much more, but I think that even the abstract, which can be downloaded on my website, is an interest read.

Delivering food to North Korea

The frustration that China is currently creating with its repressive measures and threats around the world has several consequences. One of them will be that China will pay less attention to sanctions and export controls: Why follow Western sanctions regimes when it is all about weakening China? - this question will be asked in some small leading groups of the Chinese government. The defiant answer will be: Exactly! Why should China take care of it when other international legal regulations are also disregarded by Beijing and apparently nobody can prevent it!? In the future it will be easier to deliver bombs and missiles to North Korea and since I have a few kilograms of uranium left anyway, I looked around for a trustworthy supplier. As so often, I found it on Alibaba: Cargo Movers International Logistics Co., Ltd. At first I was confused, because the company advertises with a container from Ocean Network Express (ONE), according to Wikipedia " jointly owned by the Japanese shi

The hidden political agenda: Why not shutting down the BND?

Many years ago, Wolfgang Schäuble - at that time interior minister of a German federal state - had the idea of installing the Bundeszentrale für politische Bildung as a kind of secret service instead of the traditional intelligence agencies as BfV or BND . Well, now is the opportunity to implement his idea and, moreover, to make the decades of work of certain German and foreign political circles a reality: the complete shutdown of all German secret service work and to lead necessary, efficient government advice to an end. (For those who are not so familiar with irony: The following screenshot is irony) Source:  https://bit.ly/2Y3KLey   With the judgment of the Federal Constitutional Court of May 19, 2020 ( 1 BvR 2835/17 ) the German Foreign intelligence agency BND has been weakened: According to the verdict, the BND will have to base its strategic telecommunications reconnaissance abroad, which is SIGINT and therefore the surveillance of persons abroad, on the German consti

Global Networking of Right-Wing Extremism....

...is something which interests me. And so I am pleased to point out to my new paper: "Far-right extremists step up international networking", published with Jane‘s Intelligence Review .  Key Points are: Increased monitoring of the communications of far-right extremists suggests that their personal and international contacts are growing in importance. Far-right extremists travel internationally to network at conferences and events, and to gain combat experience and training in conflict zones. The increasing internationalisation of far-right extremism is likely to further international networking between extremists in-person and virtually. For those who want to read some further information, based on my analysis for Jane's Intelligence Review, please feel free to download " Global Networking of Right-Wing Extremism. Some additional remarks " from my website.

US Investigations into Russia

I find the new Senate Review of the Intelligence Community Assessment of Russia Investigation extremely useful and since hours I cannot stop reading.  Didn't know that they already planned years ago the Hygiene Demo in Berlin, but here I found the evidence: Multifaceted it obviously is!
