Monty, Gladio is a real and acknowledged part of 20th Century history. Do you have any evidence that the President of Italy was part of a Soviet conspiracy when he announced its existence in 1990? Do you think that the European Parliament was part of this Soviet conspiracy? I thought you generally fight against loony conspiracy theories - yet here you are inventing your own odd-ball fantasy. Please do a little research, read the links from the articles. If you find some evidence of your pet soviet theory let me know. Lord Seabhcán of Baloney 03:25, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
- You're not understanding what I am saying. Yes, the "stay-behind" networks were/are an established part of NATO operational doctrine. I am aware of them from my previous work, but they did not necessarily go by the name of Gladio. That's a completely different animal than these same networks being involved in committing political assasinations and meddling in the affairs of Western European nations. There is no credible evidence that those allegations have any basis in fact, other than as a propaganda fabrication of the KGB-agitprop mechanism.

Ganser's Work Written With Both Eyes Closed
Well of course it is, he wrote the book under the advice of William Blum [1]. I will highlight that the linked interview was for Lyndon Larouche's EIR. ? Torturous Devastating Cudgel 20:00, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
- Given the bizarre nature of the conspiracy theory, I should've figured that LaRouche was somehow involved. Heh, maybe the Queen of England was the Commander-in-Chief of the "Operation", along with Israel and the Rothschilds. The link provided reveals the incredible naivete of Ganser -- it's obvious that he doesn't know the first thing about US military and covert operational strategies, and took everything at face value that he read in The Guardian and other newspapers, or whispered to him in dark alleys. Particularly revealing is his lack of skepticism about the origins of Field Manual 30-31B, which clearly is a a fake. Yeah, I could find citations to alien communication with Presidents from 1955 through today if I relied upon The National Inquirer and checked my brain at the door, but this was supposed to be a doctoral dissertation. His faculty advisor should have lost his tenure over the approval of Ganser's juvenile work.
