— Lieutenant General (retired) Ion Mihai Pacepa is the highest-ranking Soviet-bloc official ever to defect to the West, he recently wrote:

"History often repeats itself, and if you have lived two lives, as I have done, you have a good chance of seeing the reenactment with your own eyes. Liberation theology, of which not much has been heard for two decades, is back in the news. But what is not being mentioned is its origins. It was not invented by Latin American Catholics. It was developed by the KGB. The man who is now the head of the Russian Orthodox Church, Patriarch Kirill, secretly worked for the KGB under the code name “Mikhailov” and spent four decades promoting liberation theology, which we at the top of the Eastern European intelligence community nicknamed Christianized Marxism. Liberation theology has been generally understood to be a marriage of Marxism and Christianity. What has not been understood is that it was not the product of Christians who pursued Communism, but of Communists who pursued Christians. I described the birth of liberation theology in my book Disinformation, co-authored with Professor Ronald Rychlak. Its genesis was part of a highly classified Party/State Disinformation Program, formally approved in 1960 by KGB chairman Aleksandr Shelepin and Politburo member Aleksei Kirichenko, then the second in the party hierarchy after Nikita Khrushchev. In 1971, the KGB sent Kirill — who had just been elevated to the rank of archimandrite — to Geneva as emissary of the Russian Orthodox Church to the World Council of Churches. The WCC was, and still is, the largest international religious organization after the Vatican, representing some 550 million Christians of various denominations in 120 countries. Kirill/Mikhailov’s main task was to involve the WCC in spreading the new liberation theology throughout Latin America. In 1975, the KGB was able to infiltrate Kirill into the Central Committee of the WCC — a position he held until he was “elected” patriarch of Russia, in 2009. Not long after he joined the Central Committee, Kirill reported to the KGB: “Now the agenda of the WCC is also our agenda.” During Kirill’s years at the helm of the WCC, liberation theology put down deep roots in Latin America — where the map now has significant patches of red. Russian military ships and bombers are back in Cuba for the first time since the 1962 Cuban missile crisis, and Russia has also newly sent ships and bombers to Venezuela.
Pope John Paul II, who knew the Communist playbook well, was not taken in by the Soviets’ liberation theology. In 1983, his friend and trusted colleague Cardinal Ratzinger (later Pope Benedict XVI), who at that time was head of the Vatican’s Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith, discarded as Marxist the liberation-theology idea that class struggle is fundamental to history. The cardinal called liberation theology a “singular heresy” and blasted it as a “fundamental threat” to the Church. Of course, it was and remains a threat — one deliberately designed to undermine the Church and destabilize the West by subordinating religion to an atheist political ideology for its geopolitical gain. Now names — like Oscar Romero and Miguel d’Escoto Brockmann – not heard since the 1980s, when the Soviet Union was still en vogue, are again making international news. And here we are. The promoters of a KGB-inspired religious ideology, which once embraced violent Marxist revolution, are now denying its link to Marxism and to the KGB. Each society reflects its own past. Down through the ages, everyone who has sat on the Kremlin throne — autocratic tsar, Communist leader, or democratically elected president — has been preoccupied with controlling all expressions of religion that might impinge on his political ambitions. When Ivan IV — the Terrible — had himself crowned in 1547 as Russia’s first tsar, he also made himself head of the Russian Orthodox Church. Tsarism and Communism may have been swallowed up by the sands of time, but the Kremlin continues this tradition. Throughout its history, Russia has been a samoderzhaviye, a traditional Russian form of totalitarian autocracy in which a feudal lord rules the country and the church with the help of his political police force. The latter, whenever it had a sticky image problem, simply changed its name — from Okhrana to Cheka, to GPU, to OGPU, to NKVD, to NKGB, to MGB, to MVD, to KGB — and pretended it was a brand new organization. Many deceased KGB officers must have been chortling in their graves on New Year’s Eve, 1999, when their old boss, Vladimir Putin, at one time my KGB counterpart, enthroned himself in the Kremlin. During the Cold War, the KGB was a state within a state. Now the KGB — rechristened FSB — is the state itself. According to a study published in the Russian newspaper Novaya Gazeta, by 2003, some 6,000 former KGB officers were running Russia’s federal and local governments. The respected British newspaper the Guardian reports that President Putin has secretly accumulated over $40 billion, becoming Europe’s richest man. In Russia, the more things change, the more they seem to stay the same. This brings us back to Kirill/Mikhailov. In 2006 Archbishop Kirill’s personal wealth was estimated at $4 billion by the Moscow News. No wonder. In the mid-1990s, the Russian Orthodox Church’s Department for External Church Relations, managed by Kirill, was granted the privilege of duty-free importation of cigarettes as reward for his loyalty to the KGB. It did not take long for him to become the largest supplier of foreign cigarettes in Russia. A few years ago, while Kirill was visiting Ukraine as the new Patriarch of Russia, a newspaper published a photo in which the prelate could be seen wearing a Breguet wristwatch, the price of which was estimated at 30,000 euros. The Russian newspaper Kommersant accused Kirill of abusing the privilege of duty-free importation of cigarettes, and dubbed him the “tobacco metropolitan.” Kirill denied having such a watch. He said the photograph must have been altered by his enemies, and he posted the “real” photograph on his official website. A careful study of this “real” photograph, however, shows that the Breguet watch had been airbrushed off his wrist, but its reflection is still clearly visible on a table surface beneath his arm. Mikhailov and his KGB, rechristened FSB, are now doing their best to airbrush out the apron strings connecting them to liberation theology. Let’s not allow them to succeed."

KGB propaganda - deceptive "conspiracy theories"...

The Freemasonic, Jewish or other conspiracy lie (distributed from the second half of the 20th century) is clearly Russian communist deception, a criminal scheme (the KGB and her sister services, was able to penetrate or establish purely communist run printing houses and print such falsehoods in abundance, including falsification of historical documents, Unfortunately!) that is being very actively spread among the faithful and many accepted this lie as the truth and comes from the same exact KGB workshop - the "New World Order", yes, conveniently leaving out the full meaning, which is "New World Communist Order".

When we also look at this problem from the logical stand point, it is absolutely essential to observe that if any of the founders of communism dared to introduce any religious aspect (or other ideology) into any communist ideological teaching, such person would have been promptly liquidated and his "poison" erased once and for all by the always watchful Party ideologues. There is no chance that anything Jewish or other the Church or the ideology would therefore be as the founding ideological doctrine of communism, because communism openly rejects God as such and is completely atheistic philosophy [if you can call this evil criminal satanic ideology a philosophy at all..], that does not tolerate the competition.
Lenin was baptized Russian Orthodox, his parents were devote Christians [even though in a schismatic church], but Lenin himself [his real name was Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov] began to preach Marxism and was the main proponent of important and more direct changes in the whole Marxist communist ideology.

Estimated number of victims of communism:
65 million in the People's Republic of China
20 million in the Soviet Union
2 million in Cambodia
2 million in North Korea
1.7 million in Ethiopia
1.5 million in Afghanistan
1 million in the Eastern Bloc
1 million in Vietnam
150,000 in Latin America, mainly Cuba
10,000 deaths "resulting from actions of the international Communist movement and Communist parties not in power.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agent_of_influence

"...Most commonly they serve the interests of a foreign power in one of three ways: either as a controlled agent directly recruited and controlled by a foreign power;as a “trusted contact” that consciously collaborates to advance foreign interests but are not directly recruited or controlled by a foreign power;or as a “ useful idiot ” that is completely unaware of how their actions further the interests of a foreign power.
The term “agent of influence” is often used to describe both individuals and organizations engaged in influence operations.Individuals engaged in this type of influence operation may serve in the fields of journalism, government, art, labor, academia, or a number of other professional fields. Cultural opinion makers, nationalists, and religious leaders have also been targeted to serve as individual agents of influence..."

On the example of the past:

Year 1975 - Helsinki Human Rights Agreement

Communist strategy dictates the use of deception and disinformation, lies and false promises, whenever possible. It was therefore a surprise to people in the communist bloc that communists from the Soviet Bloc had gone to Helsinki, Finland in 1975 and signed a Human Rights Agreement with the West.
Such unprecedented move on part of the communists had its secret meaning - by signing the agreement the communists were only following their long-term strategy. They have never intended to comply with any such agreement or any kind of treaty.
The idea was brought to the Western governments by a Soviet agent of influence and it was accepted by the liberal socialist governments as genuine. [One has to seriously consider any possible role of Henry Kissinger in this matter.]
As stated by KGB defector Anatoliy Golitsyn in his book Perestroika Deception:
"We can only speculate whether the KGB waited for someone like Lyndon Johnson, Jimmy Carter, Henry Kissinger [and other American socialists, secret communists and pretended conservatives] and the European socialists to get into power and to jump-start this idea for the communists."

This video is a paid propaganda!
The Russian (Soviet) propaganda - this is one thing that is certainly hard to comprehend for people who lived in freedom all their lives - and this is essential, and one of the most important facts about communism - while the generation that has somewhat knowledge about the evils of communism is getting older, the new generation is being systematically taught Marxist-Leninist ideology and is being denied the true Christian education - which is the Catholic education.
In his book The Perestroika Deception KGB defector and renowned analyst Anatoliy Golitsyn points out in his March 1990 Memoranda to the following:
....greater apparent official tolerance of religion in the Soviet Union is accompanied by a secret drive to increase Party and KGB penetration of the Catholic and other churches and to use agents therein for political and strategic purposes inside and outside the Soviet Union [now Russia - ed. note].
As part of the program to destroy religion from within, the KGB, in the late 1950s, started sending dedicated young Communists to ecclesiastical academies and seminaries to train them as future church leaders. These young Communists joined the Church, not at the call of their conscience to serve God, but at the call of the Communist Party in order to serve that Party and to implement its general line in the struggle against religion.
This is very serious strategy and to make sure that we understand that this is a matter of Soviet [today Russian] policy, let us look at Gorbachov's 15 December, 1987 statement in front of Russian Communist Party officials, cadres and Soviet military personnel in Uzbekistan:
"The attack on religions is at the core of the revolution. There must be no let-up in the war against religion because as long as religion exists, Communism cannot prevail. We must intensify the obliteration of all religions wherever they are being practiced or taught."
But we have to also consider that this communist assault on our Faith is only part of the grand strategy these servants of evil have. They use ANY means necessary to conquer the World with communism, so their ways are from the beginning deceptive and designed to mislead the honest people, namely western government officials and diplomats, business leaders and western elites in general.

The obvious motives of the [Russian, Chinese and "former" Warsaw Pact] communists are clearly apparent and known, but their ways to achieve their goals remain still hidden....to many....

"Defense and intelligence analysts" and "religious people" of Eastern Europe To deceive the enemy into thinking that communism is no longer a threat, the culprits had to figure out ways, 30-40 years in advance, how to achieve such an important goal without it being recognized and uncovered.

So their concessions in terms of "disarming" of the Soviet Union, that was only part of the strategy, the most visible part. I was always surprised and amazed how eagerly and rather suddenly these "former" Eastern European and Russian communists turned into "new businessmen", as if they have totally given up on their communist ideology, as they have "all of a sudden" seen the light at the end of the tunnel, as if the Gorbachov's Perestroika, by some "not so holy" miracle, has made them all into Christians and devoted capitalists, and all of it has been achieved practically overnight.
So it is only logical, since these "former" communists are such devoted capitalists now, that they offer all kinds of joint ventures, business opportunities and services to the already [by the "communist disarmament" called Perestroika ] duped western capitalists, government agencies and so forth.
