#2 Thus, Nellie Ohr’s exact activities inside one of the great Russian-American disinformation campaigns of all time remain opaque. What most observers don’t realize, though, is that we already have a window onto her thinking through her strongly-etched, ideological view of Soviet history.

Gaining the trust and cooperation of select target nation personnel through (paid interviews) the writing and publishing of pro-Stalinist/pro-Putin propaganda is an effective recruitment technique. Nothing "opaque" about it.

She was obviously working for one or more intelligence agencies. You may decide which ones.

#4 How did she get a job there?

Who does these background checks?

She's a OBVIOUS spy problem

#5 I wonder if she made all of her contacts ?

#6 My guess, and only a guess.... is she was part of a long-standing penetration and recruitment campaign that conveniently morphed into a 'cover for action' for political scandal and misdeeds (Trump Russian collusion).

Sources and methods cannot be revealed you know.... sources and methods.

I still await the news of a fatal lorry-Rover crash in the North of Scotland.

#7 yes Tail Gunner Joe was right. We are and have been up to our eyeballs in communist operatives in the media, entertainment, law enforcement, CIA, NSA, you name it.

we came pretty close to it when they elected Zero, I am convinced he was the Manchurian Candidate groomed for years by communists to unwind our country. And he had a lot of help from people every where. How else could he get away with sealing his transcripts and birth records, how else could an unknown, back bench State senator get elected to the Senate and then with little or no record, run for President and get elected. With drug abuse, criminal associations, and millions in campaign contributions from foreign entities???

Nellie Ohr is the tip of the iceberg.

At some levels, the Trump Collusion thing may be the biggest SQUIRREL in history to divert attention from the massive takeover of our government by foreign operatives.

I believe you've asked a question we already have the answer to. The Hildebeest was clearly the planned follow-on. I'd love to see Brennan, Soetoro, and Clinton 'on the box' in front of Israeli polygraphers.

#10 Grom,

He falls into the "useful idiot" category. Not enough brain power to be a Manchurian Candidate.

#11 Besoeker,

So Zero and Shillary, the odious, loathsome, well connected sadistic sociopath, were the end result of a long running operation dating back to the Soviet Union?

#13 I don't know SPOD, but a man named Bill Harvey from the FBI was detailed to the CIA in 1951 to run Operation Gold (named Stopwatch by the Poms). These foks have been listening to one another, spying, and telling bullshi* stories for a very long time. Writer Rufina Pukhova was Kim Philby's fourth wife. Nellie and her could have been great friends.


Operation Gold (also known as Operation Stopwatch by the British) was a joint operation conducted by the American Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and the British MI6 Secret Intelligence Service (SIS) in the 1950s to tap into landline communication of the Soviet Army headquarters in Berlin using a tunnel into the Soviet-occupied zone. This was a much more complex variation of the earlier Operation Silver project in Vienna. Soviet authorities were informed about Operation Gold from the very beginning by their mole George Blake and "discovered" the tunnel in 1956.

Details of the project are still classified—especially by the British—and whatever authoritative information can be found is scant. This is primarily because the then-Director of Central Intelligence (DCI), Allen Dulles ordered "as little as possible" be "reduced to writing" when the project was authorized.

#14 "how else could an unknown, back bench State senator"...

Interesting reading on how O became a state senator in the first place.

Perhaps it wasn't only the 'Chicago machine.'

#19 At this point, I'm only surprised when other people express their surprise at these shenanigans (Apologies to Captain O'Hagan).
