Dr. Steve Pieczenik - Wikipedia attack

Tweet

The Wikipedia entry for Dr Steve Pieczenik is being butchered as I write. Just look at the bizarre "at some point" references under his professional life - someone is trying to destroy his credibility with crude editing of the Wikipedia entry. How strange - this is how one discredits someone in the internet age! Pieczenik has an incredible CV as a doctor of psychiatry, a high level negotiator and advisor for the US government and a best selling author of political thrillers, as summarised on his own website. He also appeared on the Alex Jones web TV show - what some would cause a conspiracy truther ghetto - claiming that 9/11 was a 'false flag' operation and that he was prepared to testify in Congress that a US general had admitted as much to him. He also says Bin Laden has been dead since December 2001. If mainstream media in the US and Britain did not refuse to cover these things he would already be news. Last night on BBC News the courageous Pakistan correspondent Orla Guerin was out speaking to Pakistanis in Abbotobad and hearing of their disbelief over the Osama assassination. I am detecting a degree of mainstream media skepticism about the raid and the official story. The absence of a body or photographs, and some dodgy home videos, are not enough to convince people. Unfortunately when you have systematically lied over a long period of time, people are entitled not to believe your version of events and to want to see proof. Of course Dr. Pieczenik's claims appear to be incredible, but his CV says he is a bona fide government insider rather than just a peddler of wild conspiracies. He was involved in the Aldo Moro Red Brigade kidnapping in 1978 as a negotiator for the US government and he worked for Carter, Reagan and Bush Snr, as well as working for the election of GW Bush in 1999.
So much hangs on the credibility of this man's career and works because of the gravity of his statements. If a true insider can make such statements, whether they are all true or not, it could bring others out of the closet. But if he is discredited, the message will be clear that any establishment figure who backs so-called conspiracy theories will pay the price.
Are Pieczenik's statements part of a split within the US security establishment over the global propaganda war and US strategy? Only time will tell.
