“Putin gave Iran peace of mind! More recently, Russia and Iran held relevant negotiations on the purchase of S-300. According to Russian officials, Iran will soon acquire a new batch of S-300 systems.

As long as Russia and Iran join forces to confront the enemy, the US military can no longer act recklessly. ”- reports the publication “Sohu”.
Experts believe that Tehran’s choice in favor of the Russian S-300 is primarily due to its rather high efficiency and relatively low cost, however, if it comes to acquiring a large batch of Russian air defense systems, Iran can thereby provide maximum protection against any external threats because the same S-400s, although they have improved characteristics, were nevertheless created precisely on the basis of the Russian S-300 systems.

Joe Sobran on the Khazarian Mafia

The late columnist Joseph Sobran was an American patriot because he had the moral and intellectual courage to take the Zionist ideology by the bull and strip the gangsters of their political pedestal .
Sobran , unlike political prostitutes like Ann Coulter and Dinesh D ’ Souza who have an incestuous obsession with calling out “ The Left ” for the bad things that “ The Right ” are doing , knew that he had to fight .
And fighting in the culture wars means that you have to specifically and methodically name the people who are actually dragging America @ @ @ @ @ @ @ political sinkhole .
Sobran once wrote : “ Talking about American politics without mentioning the Jews is a little like talking about the NBA without mentioning the Chicago Bulls .
Not that the Jews are all-powerful enough ; and their power is unique in being off-limits to normal criticism even when it ’ s highly visible .
They themselves behave as if their success were a guilty secret , and they panic , and resort to accusations , as soon as the subject is raised .
“ Jewish control of the major media @ @ @ @ @ @ @ silence both paradoxical and paralyzing .
Survival in public life requires that you know all about it , but never refer to it .
A hypocritical etiquette forces us to pretend that the Jews are powerless victims ; and if you don ’ t respect their victimhood , they ’ ll destroy you.
” This is not an anti-Semitic assertion .
We know by now that Jewish scholars are saying the same thing .
Sobran again wrote : “ An ‘ anti-semite ’ in actual usage , is less often a man who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hate .
The word expresses the emotional explosion that occurs in people who simply can ’ t bear critical discourse about a sacred topic , and who experience criticism as profanation and blasphemy.
” [ 1 ] Sobran , a commentator on the CBS Radio and a syndicated columnist with the Los Angeles Times , was himself labeled an anti-Semite by Neocon Norman Podhoretz .
And he was eventually fired from the National Review , which has been a Neoconservative flagship since the beginning of time .
[ 2 ] In fact , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ argued , was a CIA front .
“ James Burnham , one of the founders of National Review , worked for the [ Congress for Cultural Freedom , which was established by the CIA ] .
He was also a former Trotskyite and a CIA agent .
Also associated with the CCF was the father of neoconservatism , Irving Kristol.
” [ 3 ] National Review , as E. Michael Jones points out , “ was created to destroy isolationist conservatism .
People who criticized America ’ s march to empire from the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ demonized and decertified .
NR has shown undeviating consistency in this regard , the most recent example being David Frum ’ s diatribe against the paleoconservatives… ” [ 4 ] It was no surprise that the usual suspects sent their pawn , William F. Buckley , to attack Sobran and to say weird things .
By 1955 , Buckley was already a CIA agent .
“ Rothbard says that Buckley was directed to the CIA by Yale Professor Wilmoore Kendall , who introduced him to James Burnham , a consultant to the Office @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s covert-action wing…virtually everyone associated with the founding of National Review was either a former CIA agent or someone in the pay of the CIA .
In addition to Buckley , Kendall , and Burnham , that included William Casey , who would go on to become head of the CIA.
” [ 5 ] National Review progressively became a covert operation which sought to manipulate Catholics in America for the Neoconservatives .
This became very clear during the events leading up the war in Iraq .
One critique of National Review , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ If they [ Catholics ] don ’ t by that [ weapons of mass destruction ] , ” he said , after seeing what National Review writers were doing , “ we ’ ll threaten to brand them with dark and subterranean and totally unprovable anti-Semitism.
” [ 6 ] This became very clear when Buckley posited the claim that some of Sobran ’ s columns were “ contextually anti-Semitic.
” [ 7 ] Buckley knew that this wasn ’ t true .
In fact , when Podhoretz said that Sobran ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Buckley responded by saying that only a few of his columns were anti-Semitic .
“ By this I mean that if he had been talking , let us say , about the lobbying interests of the Arabs or of the Chinese , he would not have raised eyebrows as an anti-Arab or an anti-Chinese.
” Well , we have a problem here , don ’ t we ?
If it is possible to talk about Arabs or Chinese without being anti-Arabs or anti-Chinese , why can ’ t that principle be applied to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ above criticism ?
In any event , Buckley was the man who actually was working for the masters of the universe .
He told Sobran to “ stop antagonizing the Zionist crowd.
” What probably isolated Sobran even more was his view on the so-called Holocaust .
He declared : “ I am not , heaven forbid , a ‘ Holocaust denier.
’ I lack the scholarly competence to be one .
… Why on earth is it ‘ anti-Jewish ’ to conclude from the evidence that the standard numbers of Jews murdered @ @ @ @ @ @ @ regime , bad as it was in many ways , was not , in fact , intent on racial extermination ?
Surely these are controversial conclusions ; but if so , let the controversy rage.
” Sobran also blamed the “ Jewish-Zionist powers that be in the United States ” for the destruction of the Middle East and the chaos in much of the West .
Sobran also argued that Communism is essentially a Jewish phenomenon .
For those reasons , he was a full-blown anti-Semite .
But not a single Jewish scholar @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about here .
In fact , Jewish academics are bragging about how Jewish subversive movements have turned much of the West upside down .
Consider for example Yuri Slezkine of the University of California .
At the very beginning of his study The Jewish Century , Slezkine writes : “ The modern age is the Jewish Age , and the twentieth century , in particular , is the Jewish Century.
” Slezkine has more interesting things to say : “ Modernization , ” he continues , “ is about everyone becoming Jewish.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ echoed by Benjamin Ginsberg , J. J. Goldberg , Nathan Abrams , Josh Lambert , etc .
[ 9 ] So , it is foolish to say that Sobran was an anti-Semite .
Anyway , Sobran was attacked because he was addressing some of the most pressing issues of our time .
And he was pretty good at that .
For example , in an article entitled “ The Jewish establishment , ” he wrote : “ In the early 1930s , Walter Duranty of the New York Times was in Moscow , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wanted to be covered .
To maintain favor and access , he expressly denied that there was famine in Ukraine even while millions of Ukrainian Christians were being starved into submission .
For his work Duranty won the Pulitzer Prize for journalism .
To this day , the Times remains the most magisterial and respectable of American newspapers .
“ Now imagine that a major newspaper had had a correspondent in Berlin during roughly the same period who hobnobbed with Hitler , portrayed him in a flattering light , and denied that Jews @ @ @ @ @ @ @ concealing , but materially assisting the regime ’ s persecution .
Would that paper ’ s respectability have been unimpaired several decades later ?
There you have an epitome of what is lamely called “ media bias… ” Not only persecution of Jews but any critical mention of Jewish power in the media and politics is roundly condemned as “ anti-Semitism.
” “ But there isn ’ t even a term of opprobrium for participation in the mass murders of Christians .
It ’ s permissible to discuss the power of every other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Christian Right , but the much greater power of the Jewish Establishment is off-limits .
That , in fact , is the chief measure of its power : its ability to impose its own taboos while tearing down the taboos of others — you might almost say its prerogative of offending.

The late columnist Joseph Sobran was an American patriot because he had the moral and intellectual courage to take the Zionist ideology bull by the horns and yang the gangsters off their political pedestal.
Sobran, unlike political prostitutes like Ann Coulter and Dinesh D’Souza who have an incestuous obsession with calling out “The Left” for the bad things that “The Right” are doing, knew that he had to fight. And fighting in the culture wars means that you have to specifically and methodically name the people who are actually dragging America and much of the West into a political sinkhole.

Buckley knew that this wasn’t true. In fact, when Podhoretz said that Sobran’s entire journalistic style was ontologically anti-Semitic, Buckley responded by saying that only a few of his columns were anti-Semitic. “By this I mean that if he had been talking, let us say, about the lobbying interests of the Arabs or of the Chinese, he would not have raised eyebrows as an anti-Arab or an anti-Chinese.”
Well, we have a problem here, don’t we? If it is possible to talk about Arabs or Chinese without being anti-Arabs or anti-Chinese, why can’t that principle be applied to Jewish ideologues like Podhoretz? Are Jews above criticism?

Sources in Afghanistan tell us that the Biden administration is looking for the return of captive Americans and one Mossad officer who were alleged aboard a CIA surveillance plane shot down over Afghanistan 15 months ago.
Among those onboard was Michael D’Andrea, the CIA officer credited with arranging the murder of Iranian General Soleimani while he was on a diplomatic mission in Iraq, there to meet Saudi officials.

One might suspect that Iran had supplied the air defense weapon used to bring down the US plane, but this is conjecture.
Taliban representatives refuse to answer any questions whatsoever, surprise surprise. Lots of bitterness about Mike Kettenbach, the Israeli identified by the CIA as “Mike D’Andrea” or “Iron Mike,” the killer of Soleimani, now alleged to have been involved in the Epstein sex trafficking ring, new allegations we we can find no substantiation for.

Original Story from January
The downed plane was the mobile CIA command for Michael D’ Andrea, head of operations against Iraq, Iran and Afghanistan, America’s most advanced spy platform and mobile command center with all equipment and documents now in enemy hands.
VT Damascus: (Russian intelligence sources confirm) It has been reported that (Mike de Andrea) responsible for the assassination file of the martyr Major General Qassem Soleimani was killed in the accident of the American plane that was shot down in Afghanistan. He is the most prominent figure of the CIA intelligence in the region. The CIA top official was killed in the US bomber crash in Afghanistan.
Since 2017, D’ Andrea has run the CIA’s false flag and assassination programs in the Middle East, allegedly responsible not only for the murder of General Soleimani but the killing of 300 Iraqi demonstrators as well.
From Iraqi Prime Minister Mahdi’s speech to parliament that ended with a unanimous vote to compel the US to withdraw all forces from that nation:
“…This is why I visited China and signed an important agreement with them to undertake the construction instead. Upon my return, Trump called me to ask me to reject this agreement. When I refused, he threatened to unleash huge demonstrations against me that would end my premiership.
Huge demonstrations against me duly materialized and Trump called again to threaten that if I did not comply with his demands, then he would have Marine snipers on tall buildings target protesters and security personnel alike in order to pressure me.
I refused again and handed in my resignation. To this day the Americans insist on us rescinding our deal with the Chinese.
After this, when our Minister of Defense publicly stated that a third party was targeting both protestors and security personnel alike (just as Trump had threatened he would do), I received a new call from Trump threatening to kill both me and the Minister of Defense if we kept on talking about this ‘third party.'”

There is a speculation of Russian covert involvement. Russia has been seeking a way to send a message to Pompeo and Esper in response to the US Army playing “chicken” with Russian MP’s in Northern Syria, blocking roads where Americans have no business being.
‘No indication of enemy fire’: US forces in Afghanistan confirm loss of recon plane
RT/Moscow: The US military has acknowledged the loss of a Bombardier/Northrop Grumman E-11A plane in central Afghanistan. They added that they have not found any “indication” that the aircraft was downed.
The aircraft crashed in Ghazni city area on Monday. An investigation into the incident is underway and the military will provide further information when it’s available, a spokesman for the US forces in Afghanistan, Col. Sonny Leggett has tweeted. This statement from the Taliban:
UPDATE: Taliban's detailed English statement for #Ghazni plane crash is out. As I've been saying, Taliban never explicitly claimed that they shot down the aircraft. #Afghanistan pic.twitter.com/Q4EoTtEvIc — FJ (@Natsecjeff) January 27, 2020
The official also dismissed Taliban claims that another aircraft had crashed in the country, describing them as “false.” Earlier in the day, the Taliban said that a military helicopter went down in the east of the country shortly after the plane crash. The militant group did not provide any details of the alleged incident, nor did they specify to whom the helicopter belonged.
There has been some confusion as to whether Taliban militants have claimed responsibility for the plane crash. Their initial statement in Pushtu only stated that the plane had gone down.
The Bombardier/Northrop Grumman E-11A is a surveillance and communications plane. Footage from the scene showing the wreckage has been circulating on social media, and photos that appear to show a plane with the same serial number have been unearthed.
Videos showed the shell of the plane ablaze on the ground. It was largely destroyed in the fire with only its tail section surviving the crash
Journalists have made it to the scene of a plane crash in Afghanistan, snapping pictures of the wreckage and even some documents. It comes as the US Air Force’s chief of staff all but confirmed the loss of the military plane.
UPDATE: ‘No indication of enemy fire’: US forces in Afghanistan confirm the loss of recon plane
“It appears we have lost an aircraft. We don’t know the status of the crew,” Gen. David Goldfein, the Air Force’s chief of staff, told reporters at a Monday meeting in Washington. This is the closest to confirmation from the US military so far, and the Pentagon earlier declined to comment.
The aircraft believed to be a USAF Bombardier/Northrop Grumman E-11A, surveillance, and communications plane went down in central Afghanistan on Monday.

Other graphic pictures from the scene show at least one badly charred corpse, which was recovered from the wreckage.
The destroyed aircraft bears markings matching those of a US military plane, utilized by the US Air Force’s 430th Expeditionary Electronic Combat Squadron, which is stationed at Kandahar airbase. The E-11As are used as communication planes that provide reliable comms coverage for troops below – which is an especially tricky job in mountainous terrain.

He replied that I could email my questions , and he would see if he could answer them within protocols of the Official Secrets Act .
Secrecy is the action of keeping something secret , or the state of being kept secret .
Secrecy involves leaks , covert / hidden agendas , fake news ( because it directs our attention elsewhere ) , and National security @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hiding information from certain individuals , or groups who do not have the , need to know .
Wikipedia divides information on secrecy into subgroups : – Sociology and Zoology , Government , Corporate , Technology , Military and finally , views on secrecy .

With permissions by Peter Paget for VT
In January 2019, I contacted an ex spook Peter Paget and asked him if he would be happy to answer questions on secrecy. He replied that I could email my questions, and he would see if he could answer them within protocols of the Official Secrets Act.
Secrecy is the action of keeping something secret or the state of being kept secret. Secrecy involves leaks, covert/hidden agendas, fake news (because it directs our attention elsewhere), and National security. It is also the practice of hiding information from certain individuals or groups who do not have the, need to know. Wikipedia divides information on secrecy into subgroups: – Sociology and Zoology, Government, Corporate, Technology, Military and finally, views on secrecy. Secrecy is often controversial.
In Paget’s own words, “cover-ups take up 20% of all intelligence work worldwide”. In private and personal terms, secrecy could be sexual orientation and marital affairs. In military terms, it relates to, Black Ops, PsyOps, MKUltra & Monark, the CIA, FBI, MI6, MI5, and all the organizations we don’t know about because they are secret. Then, there is also the issue of accountability which e.g. when an agent does a bad job, and whether or not, secret agents ever retire.
On February 3rd, 2019, I received Peter Paget’s reply.
What is your concept, or general notion of secrecy: That which is withheld by either a person or an establishment?
“To me, it is either that which has a CLASSIFICATION, CONFIDENTIAL, RESTRICTED, SECRET and MOST SECRET, SPECIAL PROGRAM (USA), ACCESS ONLY TO LEVEL 1 to 36. Trump is at level 4, and goes to level 32 in July 2019, as is US custom for new Presidents.”
What is the purpose of secrecy? Perhaps in your world, it is to keep people alive, and the containment of information.
“This may be to protect an establishment, persons, the public interest, or to cover up an embarrassment to Her Majesty’s Government, or an agency.”
Do occult secrets feature in the world of intelligence?
“Yes.”
In your opinion (and in terms of secrecy) in which subject areas should people be asking questions in London? In your opinion, what should they leave alone?
“In-depth research on the internet will yield much data. The trick is to know the sheep from the goats. The standard method of obscuration is to splice a lie between two truths, or truth between two lies, hence one assumes the public is not entirely stupid. Only media newscasters and politicians tell such huge porky pies. They assume Jo Public will believe it. This technique of telling it big and often, until it is accepted, as the ‘truth’ was professed by the Nazi propaganda department. Do not annoy the Agencies, or hang around outside their buildings, as you will become, ‘a person of interest.’ ”
What secrets does London hold?
“The five partners, UK, USA, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia share data. Your question is like asking, how long is a piece of string?”
Do you agree with the article in The Independent (Tuesday 31 May 2016) that Britain is the most corrupt country in the world?
“I have not opened the piece. No, I don’t agree.”
Are you familiar with the book – Thatcher´s Secret War: Subversion Coercion Secrecy and Government 1974-90, by Clive Bloom (The History Press, 2015)?
“Not read it. MT knew a lot, but like all PM’s managed what she ‘officially knew.’ ”
You mention “Ultra” in your book ‘Secret Life of a Spook’. What is Cosmic?
“Cosmic is a USA Nuclear clearance security code. Ultra is another level.”
How should Londoners best protect their children?
“In general do not allow children under the age of six to have cell phones as it cooks their brains. Limit Wi-Fi use to one hour a day. Do not have them sleep within 3 ft of modems, or SMART meters, and use your common sense.”
In a world run by multi-billionaires who are psychologically amoral, what can the individual do to better their lives?
“Be independent. Research the real situations, and not believe the 24/7 rubbish on the news networks which is managed. I used to work for the BBC news, and features for a while – they lie.”
Since ‘cabals hold the real power within and outside of governments, manipulate politicians, and the blinkered electorates via the mass media?
“If you listen to my presentations and read my books, and the material they refer to it would help.”
Presumably, there have to be levels of secrecy and honesty within government otherwise, things would just fall apart, or would they?
“Compartments are necessary. The general public cannot handle the truth and do not want to. They prefer their comfort bubble.”
You write that ‘cover-ups take up 20% of all intelligence work worldwide’. Why does the general public need to be kept in the dark?
“All ops are only partially successful, have **** ups, and sometimes go wrong (see my books for details). The public would lose faith in the system and become aware of how it serves to make profits, and spend their money. Example. We have a brand new aircraft carrier with no planes on its flight deck just two rescue helicopters, which is found for taking a band to New York and flying the flag. That could be said – to progress.”
Have you ever worked in PsyOps?
“Of course, read my books.”
How long did you live in London, why did you leave, and would you ever move back?
“I was born in London, as you will see from my books. I have lived in many countries from time to time. I never ‘left’ London emotionally but I am not habitually resident in the United Kingdom. So are perhaps some 3M Brits, ex. pats. I still write to the PM and MPs, sometimes they listen.”
If you had a secret room, what would it look like?
“In my books, I describe such a room, read the book again slowly, and read between the lines.”
Lastly, what is ‘The Question That Never Was’? You do not have to answer it, if you do not want to, but maybe identify one…
“To understand, you need to read all three books, the latest trilogy (not the old ones) crack the codes, and see the light. You see you must get away from clichés, and hang-ups about power groups. I dealt with PEOPLE. Peter’s people like Smiley’s People. If you understand people, you will understand the organizations in which they focus their ambitions and targets. Try to be an objective observer, and not just find data to support a hypothesis.
Wishing you ALL well,
Peter”

veteranstoday--2020-01-27--Conservative Viewpoint: ADL and SPLC Target Random Whites with Fake Accusations of Hate

Note : This article below expresses viewpoints to some degree at odds with VT values and is here for purposes of information only .
Buyer beware .
Hate crime numbers have been stagnant over the last few years .
White people in particular are heavily underrepresented in this field , committing only about 25 % of all hate crimes per year .
High profile hoaxes , from the wave of bomb threats to Jewish centers to Jussie Smollett , have severely undermined the fictitious narrative intended to stifle discussions on immigration , finance , Israel and globalization .
The challenge @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Center and the Anti-Defamation League have before them is figuring out how to fully suppress the continued rise of a young , white , politically incorrect and largely law-abiding counter-culture after more passive means of shutting down political speech ( ostracization , doxing , anarchist paramilitary violence , surveillance , subversion ) have failed .
The real agenda is to instate policies that would make it dangerous and expensive for white people to participate in conversations about the direction of our country .
The strategy the ADL ’ s Jonathan Greenblatt is deploying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ protected speech and crime , knowing that the ACLU will never defend an accused white “ racist ” in this gray minefield .
The goal is to conflate speech with violence , an unpopular idea that just a few years ago was limited to campus extremists but is now elite consensus .
“ Data drives policy ” Greenblatt said last June in regards to hate crime statistics .
Organized Jewry , in fear of losing their cultural and financial stranglehold over America , has set out to pressure a large network of career @ @ @ @ @ @ @ figures to manufacture the “ data ” they otherwise lack .
There is a small circle of people who claim engaging in nationalist resistance has “ ruined their life , ” but the reality is that all whites – political or not – can be targeted by the system , tried by the media , and convicted in kangaroo courts .
The silence of conservative accomplices like The Daily Caller and Breitbart as this happens has kept many Americans ignorant about the out-of-control trend of convicting random whites of “ hate crimes ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nor crime .
The recent hate crime conviction of Timothy Trybus by a disproportionately Jewish jury in Skokie , Illinois has not been covered at all by Breitbart .
Trybus was accused and convicted of non-violently expressing views common in Breitbart ’ s own comment section .
He is facing a potential sentence of 3-5 years !
In New York , an 11-year-old white girl is being charged with third degree assault as a hate crime after winning a school bus fight against a black girl .
Multiple other white people , including @ @ @ @ @ @ @ charged despite no involvement .
In Florida , the FBI has utilized a number of rarely-used statutes to selectively prosecute Daniel McMahon , a blogger who exposes criminal activity by supporters of Antifa , for “ hate crimes.
” A court in Tampa acquiesced to US Attorney Thomas Cullen ’ s demand that McMahon be denied bond in spite of the non-violent nature of his charges and lack of criminal history because he once coined the term “ diversity of tactics .

Hate crime numbers have been stagnant over the last few years. White people, in particular, are heavily underrepresented in this field, committing only about 25% of all hate crimes per year. High profile hoaxes, from the wave of bomb threats to Jewish centers to Jussie Smollett, have severely undermined the fictitious narrative intended to stifle discussions on immigration, finance, Israel and globalization.
The challenge Zionist organizations like the Southern Poverty Law Center and the Anti-Defamation League have before them is figuring out how to fully suppress the continued rise of a young, white, politically incorrect and largely law-abiding counter-culture after more passive means of shutting down political speech (ostracization, doxing, anarchist paramilitary violence, surveillance, subversion) have failed. The real agenda is to instate policies that would make it dangerous and expensive for white people to participate in conversations about the direction of our country.
The strategy the ADL’s Jonathan Greenblatt is deploying seeks to blur the line between Constitutionally protected speech and crime, knowing that the ACLU will never defend an accused white “racist” in this gray minefield. The goal is to conflate speech with violence, an unpopular idea that just a few years ago was limited to campus extremists but is now the elite consensus.
“Data drives policy” Greenblatt said last June in regards to hate crime statistics. Organized Jewry, in fear of losing their cultural and financial stranglehold over America, has set out to pressure a large network of career-oriented politicians, activists and law enforcement figures to manufacture the “data” they otherwise lack.
Whites Under Siege
There is a small circle of people who claim to engage in nationalist resistance has “ruined their life,” but the reality is that all whites – political or not – can be targeted by the system, tried by the media, and convicted in kangaroo courts.
The silence of conservative accomplices like The Daily Caller and Breitbart as this happens has kept many Americans ignorant about the out-of-control trend of convicting random whites of “hate crimes” where there is neither “hate” nor crime.
The recent hate crime conviction of Timothy Trybus by a disproportionately Jewish jury in Skokie, Illinois has not been covered at all by Breitbart. Trybus was accused and convicted of non-violently expressing views common in Breitbart’s own comment section. He is facing a potential sentence of 3-5 years!
In New York, an 11-year-old white girl is being charged with third-degree assault as a hate crime after winning a school bus fight against a black girl. Multiple other white people, including the bus monitor, are also being charged despite no involvement.
In Florida, the FBI has utilized a number of rarely-used statutes to selectively prosecute Daniel McMahon, a blogger who exposes criminal activity by supporters of Antifa, for “hate crimes.” A court in Tampa acquiesced to US Attorney Thomas Cullen’s demand that McMahon be denied bond in spite of the non-violent nature of his charges and lack of criminal history because he once coined the term “diversity of tactics.”
