Economic Hitman John #Perkins:

How the #USA Used #Debt and Economic #Sabotage to Control the World


Author of the best-selling ‘Confessions of an Economic Hitman’ John Perkins, discusses his past as an ‘economic hitman’ where he would work in the US National Security Agency (#NSA) to sabotage economies and burden them with debt, resulting in these countries being controlled by the US via debt.

He also discusses:

• why he believes #China now has its own set of ‘economic hitmen’ and ‘jackals’ following the same strategy as the US, the shift of global power away from the US with the rise of the global south, China and the other #BRICS countries,

• why economic sabotage has become harder for the US to apply in the Middle East,

• threats to his life for blowing the whistle on the US deliberate impoverishing of millions

Triangulation: Did “the NSA” fail to learn the lessons of NSO? | by Bill Marczak | Jun, 2023 | Medium – June 2023

The 1st of June 2023 saw perhaps the most exciting development in the targeted spyware research space in recent memory.

The Russian government’s Federal Security Service (FSB) released a statement indicating that they had detected a hacking campaign by the US National Security Agency (NSA) that compromised “thousands” of Apple iPhones within Russia. The FSB’s statement also, bizarrely, asserted collusion between the NSA and Apple, throwing the veracity of the rest of the FSB’s claims into question. Private sector offensive actors like NSO, QuaDream, and others, have regularly fielded zero-click, zero-day exploits against Apple and Android phones, without any collusion with these companies.
