When was Fuller Station Chief in Kabul?

[edit]

It would be interesting to learn during what time Fuller served in Kabul. He's identified as a former station chief there in his short bios when writing op-eds, but they never mention the dates of his tenure there. Grr82 (talk) 06:36, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Tsarnaev's relative??

[edit]

Whats that story about his daughter Samantha had allegedly been married to Ruslan Tsarni, uncle of the Boston bombers?? I thought it's just some joke, but internet is somehow full of this info, even RT.com wrote about it. Any clues? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.8.67.42 (talk) 05:19, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

How is this relevant to the article and what is the point of including it w/ mention of USAID being kicked out of Russia in the first place? This is dubious, representative of POV, relies on possibly inappropriate sourcing, etc... I've attempted to tag article appropriately. HZ4w0uYd{©hat} 20:35, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
For an author of a document titled "The Future of Political Islam" and as an official involved in the use of political Islam as a tool against the Soviet Union and Russia, it is absolutely relevant to list any and all links he may have with activists in the movement, sorry, this is not a POV issue, it is reality. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.151.61.147 (talk) 17:56, 25 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Zbigniew Brzezinski

[edit]

Any material on his association with Zbigniew Brzezinski? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.176.206.37 (talk) 05:46, 18 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What no date of birth?

[edit]

Pretty unusual I would say.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.70.210.78 (talk) 23:32, 11 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Biographical information and publications

(The following was added to the article, apparently by the article's subject. I cut and pasted it here.--Victor Chmara (talk) 09:37, 10 April 2014 (UTC))[reply]

Hi, I'm probably not doing this right, but I'm Graham E. Fuller, the subject of this Wiki article. Below is the complete list of my pubs, to replace the partial list that you have listed below. I'd like to make a few other corrections at some point as well. Questions were raised on the following: My birth date is 1937, and I was CIA Station Chief in Kabul from 1975-1978. I was never truly an employee of the State Dept, that was official cover. I was a CIA operations officer from 1964 to 1981. I then served as Vice Chairman of the National Intelligence Council at CIA, responsible for all long-range National Estimates until I retired from the CIA in 1987. I was a senior political scientist at RAND from 1988 until 2002.

Great, are you related to the Tsarnaev Brothers? Some folks are alleging you are their Great Uncle?72.191.211.45 (talk) 19:34, 18 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Princess Island conspiracy?

[edit]
  1. "Former vice chairman of the National Intelligence Council of the CIA, Graham E. Fuller, was on Princess Island 20 minutes from Istanbul the entire night of the coup, monitoring developments until the coup collapsed."---F. William Engdahl "The CIA Wasted $2 Billion on Riffraff Puppets" LINK, August 4, 2016
  2. "Mr. Barkey, Professor of International Relations at Lehigh University, found himself in the crosshairs of pro-government media in Turkey and was portrayed as one of the key architects behind the July 15 coup attempt. The Turkish media calls him a CIA agent and accuses him of orchestrating the putsch, which killed 249 people and wounded more than 2,000. Mr. Barkey regards charges as absurd and ludicrous." --Abdullah Ayasun, "Turkish Court Issues Detention Warrant for US Scholar Henri Barkey," November 11, 2017 Turkey Post
  3. "I was in Turkey at the time, leading a workshop on Buyukada, an island that is a 45-minute ferry ride from Istanbul. The workshop, which had been planned months earlier in conjunction with an Istanbul-based think tank, brought a small number of experts together to discuss Iran’s relations with its neighbors. Academic gatherings like these are important for my work, but I suspect most people would have thought it was pretty dull. Some people in Turkey, however, saw something far more nefarious. They thought I was behind the mutiny."---Henry J. Barkey, "Why Is Turkey Accusing Me of Plotting a Coup?" September 1, 2016 New York Times
  4. "'For the record, at the time of the coup, Graham Fuller was near Vancouver, Canada, where he lives. So to put it mildly, this is an unpleasant situation to be in.'"---To Lori Friedman, "Q&A: Henri Barkey on Turkey's 'Fake News' Campaign Against Him," December 7, 2017 Lehigh University News
  5. "On July 15, 2016, an American college professor named Henri Barkey convened an academic workshop about Iran at a hotel on an island near Istanbul. That night, elements of the Turkish military attempted a coup against President Recep Tayyip Erdogan that quickly failed but triggered a massive campaign of repression which continues to this day. Barkey went through with his conference, spent a couple of days in Istanbul and flew home. To Barkey’s astonishment, he soon became a target of the world’s newest political weapon: fake news, in the form of a feverish, government-sponsored campaign."---Jackson Diehl, op-ed, "A Fake News Campaign Blames an Innocent American for a Coup Attempt in Turkey," December 12, 2017 Washington Post LINK
  6. "This is not to say that Gulen followers were not involved in the coup attempt. Some Gulenists were seen in and around military bases. If they were involved, it is also very likely that Gulen himself was aware. Still, given the clumsiness with which the whole operation was executed and the lackadaisical initial response by those who could have prevented it, there is a distinct possibility that this from the beginning was an effort at entrapment. Simply put, what finally transpired was a counter-coup that enabled Erdogan to rid Turkey of his opponents."---Henri Barkey, "One Year Later, The Turkish Coup Attempt Remains Shrouded in Mystery," July 14, 2017 Washington Post
  7. "Accused Expert Henri J. Barkey Was Actually Invited to İstanbul by Officials," July 27, 2016, Birgun Daily
