EXCLUSIVE: New book reveals how KGB operation seeded Muslim countries with anti-American, anti-Jewish propaganda during the 1970s, laying the groundwork for Islamist terrorism against U.S. and Israel

The highest-ranking Soviet-bloc intelligence officer ever to defect to the West claims in a new book that anti-American Islamic terrorism had its roots in a secret 1970s-era KGB plot to harm but the United States and Israel by seeding Muslim countries with carefully targeted propaganda.

Yuri Andropov, the KGB chief for 15 years before he became the Soviet premier, sent hundreds of agents and thousands of copies of propaganda literature to Muslim countries.

 'By 1972,' according to the book, 'Andropov's disinformation machinery was working around the clock to persuade the Islamic world that Israel and the United States intended to transform the rest of the world into a Zionist fiefdom.'

Not surprised by it one bit.

This is not a new story, as many other defected KGB agents have said similar things.  I've posted here before about Yuri Bezmenov, and the Soviets plan for infiltrating the U.S.   Which by the way has been very successful.   http://www.conservativecave.com/index.php/topic,85930.msg1066582.html#msg1066582

Seeding the Middle East with hatred for the U. S. is like seeding the Klan with hatred for blacks... seems a bit redundant.

Russia has their own problems with Muslims.  If this is true, then they didn't think their plan all the way through.

Communists that side with Muzzies over Capitalists never do. They'll be the first to go in this country should Muzzies ever take over. You think that Marxist **** Barney Frank would last long under Muzzie control?

When Russia was Soviet Union, Muslims enjoyed more rights under them.

What, is this more bullshit about how the 'Religion of Pieces" has been "corrupted"?

I guess this puts a hole in the democrats argument that America made the muslims mad because we have military around the world.

Meh.  It's a game both sides played to the hilt from the start of the Cold War onward, including our support to the Afghan Muj.  Inevitable really, once the Mid-East alignments solidified after the 1956 war into the Arabs as a Soviet client and Israel as a Western one.
