James Bamford, American writer, Vietnam War veteran, former military intelligence officer and author of studies on the activities of the CIA and NSA, speaking on air yesterday political show “Democracy Now!”noted that “there are only two ways that American intelligence could have obtained all this data: with the help of signals intelligence from the NSA and through human intelligence, which is carried out by the CIA.” The program’s host, journalist Amy Goodman, quoted a Washington Post article published on April 10 under the headline “What We Learned from the Leaked Pentagon Papers“: “The documents show that the U.S. intelligence community has penetrated so deeply into Russian security agencies – the army, intelligence and counterintelligence agencies and their leadership – that it can warn Ukraine in advance of attacks and reliably assess the strengths and weaknesses of Russian forces. The documents show that U.S. intelligence Russia was aware of plans to strike Ukrainian military positions in two locations on a specific day in February, as well as plans to strike more than ten Ukrainian energy facilities and the same number of bridges. It is also clear from the leak that the United States was aware. about the internal plans of the Russian special services for projects in African countries and much more.”
The Pentagon and Langley received information from Moscow for months. Meanwhile, on the eve of the war, the Russian security forces themselves chose apartments in Kyiv with a view of the Dnieper, ordered awards and gifts for themselves, prepared to receive flowers from residents of Kharkov and Kherson, and sent each other photos of military equipment and plans of attacks. All these photos immediately ended up in the possession of Western intelligence services. In Moscow, no one was punished for all these leaks. This means that the Kremlin’s plans for the coming months of the military campaign in Zapale are also well known. As a result, those who will be held accountable for betrayal are not those whose actions caused information to go to the NSA, CIA, or who “reserved” apartments for themselves in Kyiv, but those who will be the first and last to take the blow on the front line. And there will be a lot of victims. But not in Moscow.
