Disinformation

Former Spy Chief Reveals Secret Strategies for Undermining Freedom Attacking Religion and Promoting Terrorism

De: Prof. Ronald J. Rychlak, Lt. Gen. Ion Mihai Pacepa

Narrado por: Corey Snow

The highest-ranking Soviet bloc intelligence official ever to defect to the West, Lt. Gen. Ion Mihai Pacepa is at it again. A quarter century ago, in his international bestseller Red Horizons, Pacepa exposed the massive crimes and corruption of his former boss, Romanian President Nicolae Ceausescu, giving the dictator a nervous breakdown and inspiring him to send assassination squads to the U.S. to find his former spy chief and kill him. They failed. On Christmas Day 1989, Ceausescu was executed by his own people at the end of a trial whose accusations came almost word-for-word out of Red Horizons.

Today, still living undercover in the United States, the man credited by the CIA as the only person in the Western world who single-handedly demolished an entire enemy espionage service - the one he himself managed - takes aim at an even bigger target: the exotic, widely misunderstood but still astonishingly influential realm of the Russian-born "science" of disinformation. Indeed, within this audiobook, Pacepa, along with his co-author, historian and law professor Ronald Rychlak, expose some of the most consequential yet largely unknown disinformation campaigns of our lifetime.

A must read exposing the technology of fake news!

Spellbinding! This book should wake up those Americans hypnotized by the swamp and main stream media.

A first hand account of disinformation

This book is written from the perspective of a former Romanian intelligence officer (his rank/experience is higher than an average bear). LTG Pacepa brought forth the method and reason of some of the old Soviet Bloc deception campaigns. It should be noted that LTG Pacepa gives valuable insight to disinformation tactics, at a few times he does use propaganda techniques to describe some of his former colleagues, and probably with good reason. Overall, this book is a valuable to understand disinformation at its source.

Murica

not so gentile reminder of all the forces against the greatest country the world has ever known! Thank you for your bravery.

Enthralling expose of communism and autocracies

Incredible book - the logic, the understanding of the actions of communist and autocratic leaders, the results are all well communicated and respectfully acknowledged.

A great book. A must listen to all

I found the book to be informative. A must read or I can say must listen. The KGB is really exposed here.

It should be a mandatory read for all people around the world

I only hope, as much people as possible will read this book now, in a time when the veil is lifted. We’re under attack. It’s not a new war though. It’s the same old one, in a Clausewitzian sense.

Lt. Gen. Pacepa is one of the view true heroes. Maybe people outside the intelligence world might struggle to believe or even understand how deep the deception goes and how easy you can be tricked into false beliefs.

I came to understand, what also works in favor of the disinformation campaigns we face now all over the world, is that people ain’t rational. Their history is part of their legend, I dare to say: religion.

Accepting to have spent a half life under wrong premises, perhaps wasted time and even unwillingly harmed others, causes tremendous pain and requires strength.

In that sense, this book might help some to leave their paradise of deceptive childhood and growing into an adult who knows good and evil.

America is the beacon of the world. And the last gatekeeper that defends humanity before it gets really dark.

We are at the dawn.

great.

I thought this was a fantastic listen. hadn't ever really read about this subject now I have to consider this every time I read the news.

Required Reading for All!

Similar to Whittaker Chambers, Witness, this book reveals history that isn’t taught in schools.
As I learn of the various groups and ‘movements’ that were created in the Kremlin and unleashed around the world, I see what a sheep I have been to believe lies, instead of the truth before me.
I do find a strong pro-Catholic narrative without mention of pedophilic clergyman but possibly the authors think that is due to the communist operatives sent to many seminaries.
The more folks who read this book the better the chance for Liberty!

Disinformation?

Great book! I applaud his courage to move away from what disillusioned and troubled him. He brings alot of credible, and incredible, information to the forefront. Gives you a great deal to consider and chew on. Could he still be continuing with a hidden disinformation program? He provides enough to move anyone to research deeper, if they want, and alert all to keep our eyes, ears, and brains aware, open, and watching. Question everything.

That's how it works...

You've seen the fingerprints, now witness the workings of the hand of KGB style influencing operations and be able to recognize modern adoption of these strategies.
