The Thug Life: ex-CIA agent's fun in prison

(Theo Von Clips) Ex-con CIA Agent John Kiriakou talks out of class, telling prison stories
(Critic Picks) The Mexican Mafia (La eMe) is co-founded in California prison system at the now defunct DVI and Folsom State Prison by a white guy from the barrio named JD (Joe "Pegleg" Morgan) and a Latino named Santana (played by Edward James Olmos) | American Me (in popular culture)

CIA: Trained to lie, ready to kill, out to survive
The CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) is a civilian [allegedly] foreign intelligence service that actually operates illegally within the country.

It is an arm of the federal government of the United States of America tasked by the White House with advancing national "security" through collecting and analyzing intelligence from around the world and conducting covert operations (black ops).

The agency, sometimes called The Company, is headquartered in the George Bush Center for Intelligence in Langley, Virginia, sometimes metonymously called "Langley."
CIA Director Bush heads legacy in White House
A major member of the United States Intelligence Community (IC), the CIA has reported to the director of national intelligence since 2004 and is focused on providing intelligence for the president (POTUS) and his/her Cabinet, though it also provides intelligence for a variety of other entities including the United States Armed Forces and foreign allies it favors, such as Israel.

The CIA is headed by a director and is divided into various "directorates," including a Directorate of Analysis and Directorate of Operations.


King Bush? - No, Dalai Lama, president.
Unlike the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation), the CIA has no law enforcement function and is supposed to only focus on intelligence gathering overseas, outside of the country. But it admits to limited domestic intelligence collection [8]. No one defines "limited," leaving it as unlimited as the CIA chooses.

The CIA is responsible for coordinating ALL human intelligence (HUMINT) activities in the IC [excluding the more secretive branches, arms, agencies, and ragtag criminals enlisted to commit crimes in black budget programs].

I like your dad, King Georgie. - Thanks, Dolly.
The CIA claims it has been instrumental in establishing intelligence services in many countries, and it provides funds and support to many foreign organizations.

The CIA exerts foreign political "influence" through its paramilitary operations units, including its Special Activities Center.

The CIA has also provided funds and support to several foreign political groups and governments, such as Israel's, including planning, coordinating, training, and carrying out torture, and technical support.

The CIA has been involved in many "regime changes" (assassinating, deposing, and disappearing leaders) and carrying out planned assassinations of foreign officials, leaders, and conducting terrorist attacks against unarmed civilian noncombatants, as it deems fit. More

SEX with Nazis and Adolf Hitler (documentary)

Pervert? Hitler was shy, as every Fräulein who met him soon found out, and he was a prude.
.

Blitzed: Drugs in the Third Reich (Norman Ohler)
What is sex without drugs and rock 'n roll? If only the Nazis had Rammstein to play them the hits. They did not. They did have doctors who invented METH (Pervitin) and experimented with many other chemicals, which caused much of Hitler's madness as it turns out. It pushed many Nazi soldiers to a kind of war unseen before, the Blitzkrieg, a kind of berserker tactic. What must these substances have done to the sex lives of Nazis and prison guards like Ilse Koch (featured below)?

The depraved sex life Hitler tried to keep hidden | Hitler's Secret Sex Life

(Timeline - World History Documentaries) Feb. 12, 2022. Adolf Hitler had a depraved sex life that he tried to hide from the German public of Catholics, Lutherans, and others. He was said to constantly masturbate, to be a voyeur, and to have sadomasochistic (BDSM) sex with women.

Mrs. Ilse Koch: Nazi guard and sexual deviant


(World History) Buchenwald & Sachsenhausen - Holocaust. Oct. 16, 2022. Mrs. Ilse Koch was born Margarete Ilse Köhler on Sept. 22, 1906, in Dresden.

Eva, Ilse and Mr. Koch want us to come over for an orgy.
In 1932, one year before Adolf Hitler and his Nazi (National Socialist) Party came into power, Koch had joined the Nazi Party. In 1936, she got married to the commandant of Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp, Karl Otto Koch.

Ilse Koch worked at Sachsenhausen as a guard and secretary. In August 1937, Karl Otto was assigned to build a new concentration camp in Buchenwald. While he was known for his personal greed in the camps that he worked in, she was feared for her brutality. At Buchenwald, she became known as "the witch."

She was obsessed with tattoos and used to ride her horse around the Buchenwald looking for tattooed prisoners. When she found one, she sent them to their death. But before they were killed and burned, she would cut out the part of the skin where the tattoo was located. She used to call these pieces of skin her “trophies,” as serial killers are in the habit of collecting.

She would go on to collect lampshades, book covers, as well as gloves and handbags – all made of human skin. She shared her obsession with tattoos with Dr. Erich Wagner, allegedly her secret lover, who wanted to find the connection between tattoos and criminal tendencies.


Despite having three of her own children, she hated pregnant women and she used to beat them with a whip along the entire length of which pieces of a razor were inserted. Koch allegedly also found pleasure in beating child inmates. She would laugh loudly when seeing them going to the gas chambers [to be deloused].

She was also a sexual deviant.
She not only organized numerous orgies with SS men and their wives but also allegedly forced Jewish male prisoners to rape female prisoners in front of her.

She is said to have enjoyed walking around the camp half naked or in skimpy clothes, provoking prisoners to make eye contact with her. When they did, they were taken by the guards and shot in the head.

It was also reported that she had ordered prisoners to serve her while she was nude and enjoyed sexually humiliating the sex-starved prisoners.

In 1941, Buchenwald caught the attention of the Higher SS and Police Leader for Weimar Josias Waldeck, who in this position had supervisory authority over Buchenwald Concentration Camp.

Ilse Koch was accused of the embezzlement of over 700,000 Reichsmarks, and Karl Otto Koch was charged with both embezzlement and the unauthorized murder of three prisoners.

When it was revealed that the Kochs had used the massive Nazi apparatus to gain an enormous amount of wealth, their downfall became inevitable as all the possessions stolen from murdered Jews was regarded as the property of Hitler's Reich.

While she was acquitted for lack of evidence, Karl Otto Koch was executed by firing squad on April 5, 1945. The Buchenwald Camp, the location of Koch’s alleged atrocities, was liberated later in April of 1945.

Ilse Koch was then tried at the Buchenwald trial, which began on April 11, 1947, in the internment camp of Dachau, where the former Dachau Concentration Camp had been located until late April 1945.

Out of 31 defendants, Ilse Koch was the only woman. She was sentenced to life imprisonment, and her son Uwe, conceived while in custody, was born in October 1947.

Ask her out, Mein Fuhrer. - Oh, I couldn't.
Uwe’s father was another German prisoner. Her sentence was initially commuted to four years, but after a general outcry, she was immediately indicted by a German court for instigation to murder in 135 cases. The hearing of the second rrial opened on Nov. 27, 1950, and lasted seven weeks, during which 250 witnesses were heard, including 50 for the defense.

Look at this tip, My Lady.
Koch collapsed and had to be carried from court in late December 1950 and again in January 1951. At least four witnesses for the prosecution testified that they had seen Koch choose tattooed prisoners, who were then killed, or had seen or been involved in the process of making human-skin lampshades from tattooed skin.

When on Jan. 15, 1951, the court pronounced its verdict in a 111-page-long decision sentencing Ilse Koch to life imprisonment, she was not present in court. She made several petitions for a pardon, all of which were rejected by the Bavarian Ministry of Justice.

Ilse Koch was 60 years old when she hanged herself with a bedsheet after which she was buried in an unmarked grave. There were no tears shed for Ilse Koch.

(Encyclopedia Britannica) Holocaust: Hebrew Shoʾah, Yiddish and Hebrew Ḥurban (“Destruction”), the systematic state-sponsored killing of European Jews and many others by Nazi Germany and collaborators during World War II. The Germans called this “the final solution to the Jewish question.”

The word holocaust is derived from the Greek holokauston, a translation of the Hebrew word ʿolah, meaning a burnt sacrifice offered whole to the Jewish God. This word was chosen because in the ultimate manifestation of the Nazi killing program — insect extermination in pestilent concentration camps — the bodies of those who died of contagious diseases were consumed whole in crematoria and open fires.

What PRISON is like in the U.S. (video)

Wes Watson of San Diego (watsonfit.com, GP Penitentiary Life, August 13, 2019); Pfc. Sandoval, Seth Auberon, Ashley Wells, Sheldon S., Crystal Quintero, Wisdom Quarterly Part 1
WARNING: Graphic language, gratuitous profanity, violence, sexual content, shocking stories!
.
We're racist because American prison is racist. The SHU (Security Housing Unit, aka solitary confinement, "the hole") is a part of a prison with further restrictions, where guards further mistreat prisoners to exact revenge or to control them and model brutal behavior for them, which prisoners in turn inflict on one another and then on citizens outside of prison.

What horrors happen in U.S. prison -- and there are many including rape, extortion, cruelty, lack of compassion or sympathy, and all the worst human traits imaginable (greed, anger, delusion) -- are spurred by the treatment and torture of prisoners by the facility, warden, and fellow inmates. Prisoners run prisons because guards are too cowardly, too underpaid. too poorly staffed to do it themselves.


Nazis, white supremacy gang, Aryan Brotherhood, forced racial segregation

The system is at fault. Guards are trying to survive, prisoners are trying to survive, and prison officials are trying to capitalize on a pre-existing system. One unfairness grows into another. The end product is a toxic system that poisons society. Whatever happens in prison gets to the outside world. Enlightened self-interest teaches us that when we say "we don't care" about prisoners then we must not care too much about the world outside prison.

When people call for harsher and more expensive punishment as the solution, they are contributing to the problem, hardening prisoners and turning them out on a world that did not prevent their severe torture, neglect, and abuse in prison. Many prisoners may be horrible human beings, victims of abuse turned abusers or PTSD-suffering torture victims from the way they are tormented in prison, but they are yet human beings. What we allow to be done to the least of our brothers we do to ourselves. The test of a society is not how it treats its privileged members but how it treats its prisoners.

Torture: US Supermax Prisons (video)

Best Documentary, March 18, 2018; Pfc. Sandoval, Seth Auberon (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly

Supermax, American prison HELL (doc)
Supermax means "Super Maximum Security" prison. It's a code name that disguises the harshest prison system in the United States: total solitary confinement. Of the 2.2 million American citizens in American jails, it is said that 25,000 are locked up in these torture facilities (as defined by international standards). Shut in a windowless cell for 23 hours a day, with no human contact other than with the guards, and one hour inside in a cement "yard." For any exercise at all, it's just one hour’s worth of walking around a concrete pit 16 feet by 10 feet. Often inmates are kept for life. This disciplinary measure, presented as the answer to violence in prisons, has never been proven to work anywhere. How does one live from day to day in total solitary confinement? Let's go on a journey to northern California, to the corridors of Pelican Bay, the first Supermax prison in the country.

"Think Outside the Cage" is a show about American prison and the twisted roads that lead to it. From both sides of the walls, it explores the prison industry the chief product of which is human degradation, torture, punishment, trauma, and bringing back inmates.

How and why do citizens end up in jail and prison? What happens to them once they are there, whether rightly or wrongly convicted, set up or following the path laid out for them? Most importantly, where is the resistance building, the movement building, the engines of change inside and out that can end this profit-making nightmare based on human suffering that leads to harm and more suffering on all sides?

Protest: An Ultimatum in Ukraine

Ashley Wells, Wisdom Quarterly; (latimes.com)

Ukraine bows to Russian pressure (LAT)
KIEV, Ukraine - Protesters toppled a monument to Bolshevik leader Vladimir Lenin on Sunday during the biggest march and rally in central Kiev since Pres. Viktor Yanukovich galvanized his opposition by turning down a trade deal with the European Union (EU).
 
The protesters blocked and barricaded government offices and said they were giving Yanukovich 48 hours to disband his government [just as happened in Iceland] before marching on his country residence near Kiev. A government spokesman said Yanukovich's administration was "ready for negotiations."
 
In turning down the trade deal with the EU, Yanukovich was in effect asserting that Russia remained Ukraine's key trading partner. The country [formerly a part of Finland] is politically and geographically divided between those who favor ties to Russia and those who would like to see Ukraine more aligned with Western Europe.
 
Seven Balkans still not part of EU (LAT)
That gave the toppling of the Lenin statue symbolic resonance -- despite the fact that most Lenin statues in Russia itself were torn down during the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. Statues of the Soviet leader were once ubiquitous throughout the East bloc, but those that remain are more likely to be museum pieces than public memorials.
  
No police officers could be seen anywhere in the vicinity of Taras Shevchenko Boulevard, where the granite and marble monument was brought crashing into the street by a group of young protesters. "It is amazing how the authorities allowed Lenin to go down!" said Sergei Andriyenko, a 51-year-old Kiev businessman who applauded the action. "Where were the police, where were the communists who were always protecting him?" More

Incarceration Nation (Alternative Radio)

AR (Program #ALEM001) recorded in Santa Fe, NM, Sept. 12, 2012. (Nessom-Marshall)
 
Prof. Alexander (AR)
From the auction block to the cell block, there is a trajectory from slavery to Jim Crow to the best pretext for systematic racism and segregation ever devised, the "War on Drugs." 

The latter has resulted in mass jailings characterized by deep racial disparities.
 
The US is likely to send about one-third of young black men to jail. The criminal "justice system" -- which is more criminal than just -- functions as a modern system of racial control. Millions of people, primarily poor people of color, are being swept into the nation’s prisons at a profit to some and a cost to all.

Overcrowding is more profitable for guard's union (AP)
Those millions are then relegated to a permanent subordinate-class status which strips them of basic civil and human rights supposedly won for all during the Civil Rights era. The numbers are numbing. In all, the US holds 2.3 million behind bars and 4.8 million more on probation and parole. 

The more people who are locked up, with just cause or not, the more some profit: police departments who get additional funding for more incarcerations rather than lower crime rates, who keep assets seized even if no one is charged or, if charged and tried, found not guilty. 
Not only do rural areas get paid to have prisons located in their precincts, millions are employed as guards and other functionaries within the "prison-industrial complex." The industrial part of the complex is called the Corrections Corporation of America, the largest private prison owner and operator. 
  
Prisons are bad enough when run by the state, miserable warehouses with torture and abuse dispensing collective punishment and wasting lives rather than rehabilitating anyone. They get much worse when a corporation cuts corners at every turn to increase their profit margin at the cost of  human misery and a disservice to society.

Prison guard rapes prisoners (audio)

It took years before allegations of Harry Nicoletti's abuse were investigated by the state Dept. of Corrections and charged by the DA (Michael Henninger/Post-Gazette.com).

From State Pens to Penn State
Mumia Abu Jamal (Prison Radio)
(Nov. 11, 2011) The shocking child sex scandal rocking (Paterno and) Penn State University in State College, PA (and now Bernie Fine at Syracuse) is an explosion of almost nuclear proportions.

It has all the elements designed to produce a media firestorm: fame, money, illicit sex, deception -- and betrayal. At the core of it is betrayal of the country's deepest religion -- sports -- and of those we claim to adore and revere most, the children.The scandal has shown how great wealth, fame, and the business of college sports corrupted everything and everyone, to keep the gravy train rolling. Penn State's football program is an extremely lucrative gravy train, bringing in tens of millions of dollars.



Penn State Univ. itself is the biggest employer in State College and one of the biggest colleges in the US with over 45,000 students.

The gravy here flowed thick and heavy. And like other powerful institutions, its sins were covered so as not to rock the money-making boat.

It reminds us of the great scandals that shook the foundations of the Catholic Church in the 1990s, the ripples of which are still with us.

They remind us that rape is about power -- and sex is but a tool of domination of the weak by the powerful.

That same dynamic is at work whether it is a man and a woman, a priest and a child, or a coach and a boy.

But is it the same when it is two men?



How about when one man is a prison guard [pictured left] and other a prisoner?

When news leaked out several months ago that rapes were widespread in the blocks of the state prison in Pittsburgh, PA, the reaction was largely local, mostly concentrated in Western Pennsylvania.

Here it has all the dynamics of the rape culture we have discussed: It is the powerful against the powerless.

Indeed, in some respects it is more pronounced, for systems are in place to protect women and children (whether they are followed or not is another question), which necessitates hiding these things.
  • Penn. prison guard Harry Nicoletti, 59, was arrested and accused of sexually and physically abusing more than 20 inmates, according to the Allegheny County DA. He faces 92 counts of institutional sexual assault, official oppression, terroristic threats, and simple assault.
But in prison, the indicted guard, Harry Nicoletti, allegedly used his power as a state prison official to threaten men he raped and abused with being sent to the "hole" [isolation] and death if they told.

He reportedly ordered prisoners to contaminate food with spit, urine, and feces. He punched, slapped, and spat on prisoners. He used racist language with complete abandon. And these things went on for years.

Schools, churches, and prisons -- institutions of immense social power, exploiting, abusing, and hurting the powerless -- are places that seemingly attract rapeholics.

CDCR lies about Prison Strike Resolution

Wisdom Quarterly


KPFK Evening News (July 21, 2011 6:00 pm)
As it turns out, the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDRC) has continued its propaganda campaign or public relations effort to undermine the prisoner hunger strike protesting torture, inhumane conditions, and unfair assignment to psychologically damaging (and extraordinarily expensive to taxpayers) super maximum imprisonment.


The hunger strike is not over -- in spite of the fact that this is exactly what the CDRC reported. Knowing that there was no resolution but reporting one means the difficult to trust CDRC is now caught spreading disinformation to spare itself embarrassment as helpless prisoners call attention to their treatment and the injustices inherent in the present system.
We are sad to have reported a resolution along with the misled mainstream media. It is not possible to contact prisoners because all of their activities are controlled, censored, and adjudicated by prison officials. Therefore there was no independent confirmation possible to verify their claims. Lawyers are attempting contact to find out exactly where the hunger strike stands.
