National Security Religiosity 
& the International Studies Association


large body of literature exists re:
structural or realpolitik analysis of key institutions of US power

such approaches alone, lack explanatory power, given:

range of ritualistic & even quasi-religious phenomena

surrounding the national security sector in USA

Rituals, familiar:
  • flag-folding
  • veneration of orders
  • elaborate genuflection to rank
[grovelling / servility / on bended knee | fm Lat. genu (knee) flectere (to bend) - here]

National Security Sector
|  Priestly Class
WikiLeaks published documents bear: classification markings

type of national-security 'holy seal'

Reaction to WikiLeaks publication of documents
= two parallel campaigns:
One
  • downplaying
  • diverting attention
  • reframing
Two
internal campaign (digestion / processing of event)
When documents bearing classification seal are made public

= documents transmuted by US DoS into forbidden objects

As 'forbidden objects'
  • public/published classified US DoS docs
= become 'toxic' to the 'state within a state'
Over 5.1 million Americans (as of 2014)
= US 'state within a state' - ie those with active security clearances

As 'forbidden objects'
published classified US DoS docs
= also 'toxic' to extended periphery who aspire to USG economic or social patronage

Upon WikiLeaks disclosures:

hysteria and non-corporeality {and unreality?}

religions & cults imbue their priestly class with additional scarcity value

  • by keeping their religious texts secret from the public or the lower orders of the devoted

technique also permits priestly class
to adopt different psychological strategies
for different levels of indoctrination

national security sector ways embraced by those who have become sufficiently indoctrinated
= laughable to:
  • public; or
  • lower levels of 'clearance;'

    What is laughable, hypocritical, or Machiavellian
    =   embraced by those sufficiently indoctrinated or co-opted
    by those whose economic or social advantage lies in accepting that which they would normally reject

    Profaned Object - 'Contamination'
    False USG Claim

    Publicly, USG claimed falsely:
    = that anyone without a USG security clearance distributing “classified” documents is violating the Espionage Act of 1917 (USA)

    USG FALSE claims
    = work in the opposite direction:
    "orders the very people it publicly claims are the only ones who can legally read classified documents to refrain from reading documents"
    ... lest they be 'contaminated' by them

    Exact documents:

    • may be read by cleared staff when
    • issued from classified USG repositories
    • are, however, forbidden to same staff when
    • exact documents emerge from a public source

    US DoS mandates that:
    cleared employees of the national security state are:
    • to self-report any public domain contact with the newly 'profaned' object; and 
    • to destroy all traces of it;

      US Irrational Response

      classified cables (+ other docs)
      published by WikiLeaks (& associated media)
      = completely identical to the original versions (ie they are electronic copies)

      By implication
      'Holy' US DoS classified docs 
        • acquire non-physical property / that is a 'magical' property 
        • and this 'holy,' 'magical' property received upon USG classification:
        is EXTINGUISHED by making document PUBLIC

          Devotees of National Security State
          • do not consider docs made public to be merely:
          • devoid of 'magical' property (bestowed by classification 'holy' seal); or 
          • rendered a mundane object on publication
          Devotees of National Security State
          consider documents made public
          as having become
          = inhabited by another non-physical property: an evil one
          Such religious thinking consequences:
          • excuse used by USG to block millions of people
          working for the 'state within a state' from reading:
          = over 30 different WikiLeaks domains
          = other outlets publishing WikiLeaks materials:
          • The New York Times
          • Guardian
          • Der Spiegel
          • Le Monde
          • El País
          2011 | USG Sent 'WikiLeaks Fatwa'
          to every:
          • federal govt agency
          • every federal govt employee
          • every federal govt security contractor
          Declaration of Official 'Enemy' - Proclaiming
          WikiLeaks disclosures
          caused damage to national security
          Declaration of 'Forbidden Object' - Proclaiming
          classified information
          'remains classified'
          irrespective of availability on public websites
          & availability via media disclosure
          Proclamation | 'Confession'
          contractors "shall report its existence immediately"
          Proclamation | 'Cleansing'
          Companies are:
          1. "to delete the offending material"
          2. & to clear even the "internet browser cache"
          ---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------

          ACADEMIA
          INTERNATIONAL & PUBLIC RELATIONS

          Columbia University
          School of International & Public Affairs
          following US DoS contact
          warned students:
          “not post links to these documents nor make comments on social media sites ..."
          Consequence invoked (leverage) that accompanied warning:
          "Engaging in these activities would call into question your ability to deal with confidential information, which is part of most positions with the federal government."

          An array of govt depts & other entities, incl

          Library of Congress
          blocked internet access to WikiLeaks
          US National Archives
          = even blocked searches of its own database for “WikiLeaks”

          Pentagon prosecutors
          re Manning trial (alleged source Cablegate cables)
          = unable to receive important emails from judge & defence
          Rather than remove filter,
          Pentagon implemented clumsy new procedure:
          • check the filter daily for blocked WikiLeaks-related emails
          • set-up of alternate, special e-mail addresses for prosecution
          US National Security Sector Religious Hysteria
          = laughable to those outside the US national security sector

          US National Security Sector Religious Hysteria

          INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS
          = serious poverty of analysis of WikiLeaks publications
          in US in international relations journals

          OTHER SCHOLARS
          scholars in disciplines
          eg law, linguistics, applied statistics, health & economics
          = not deterred

          eg - Entropy statistics journal
          DeDeo et al. (US or UK nationals)
          write that:
          WikiLeaks   |   Afghan War Diary 
          “is likely to become a standard set for both the analysis of human conflict and the study of empirical methods for the analysis of complex, multi-modal data.”
          [entropy = (Communications & Information) a measure of the efficiency of a system, such as a code or language, in transmitting information - fm. Gk - here]

          COURTS & INTERNATIONAL TRIBUNALS
          • extensive use of WikiLeaks materials esp. cables
          • in courts, incl. domestic courts
          • from UK to Pakistan

          INTERNATIONAL TRIBUNALS
          • extensive use of WikiLeaks materials

          from: European Court of Human Rights to International Criminal Tribunal


          CONTRAST POVERTY OF COVERAGE
          IN USA INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS JOURNALS

          in light of 1,000s of citations in the courts & in other academic areas
          = poverty of coverage, not merely odd
          = suspicious

          Such international relations journals
          DOMINATE study of international relations GLOBALLY
          =  should be natural home for analysis of WikiLeaks 2-billion word diplomatic corpus

          US-based International Studies Quarterly (ISQ)

          major international relations journal
          = adopted a policy against accepting manuscripts based on WikiLeaks material
          *even where it consists of quotes*
          *or derived analysis*
          ISQ
          = acknowledged it's currently:
          in an untenable position until such time as there is a change in policy by International Studies Association (ISA)
          International Studies Association (ISA)
          = over 6,500 members worldwide
          = dominant scholarly association in the field
          = publishes:
          • Foreign Policy Analysis
          • International Political Sociology
          • International Interactions
          • International Studies Review
          • International Studies Perspectives
          ISA
          = almost HALF of 56 members on its governing council:  professors 'international service' type academic USA university departments 
          *Such university departments:
          = feeder schools for the US DoS and other internationally-oriented areas of govt

          ISA President (2014-15)
          = Prof Amitav Acharya
          School of International Service
          American University in Washington, DC
          ISA
          = banned single most significant US foreign policy archive from appearing in its academic papers
          = otherwise, presumably, against its institutional & academic ambitions
          ISA ban
          = calls into question its entire output
          = undermines an output that has influenced how the world understands role of US in international order

          Type of Academic Fraud

          = closing of ranks within the scholar class around the interests of Pentagon & DoS

          = exclusion of primary sources for non-academic reasons is to lie by omission

          = distortion of the field of international relations (& related disciplines)
          by proximity of its academic structures to the US govt

          = such close-proximity academic structures
          lack even even have the independence of the frequently deferential New York Times

          Distortion of Study of International Relations
          & Censorship of WikiLeaks

          = significant opportunity: to present an analysis of international relations free of censorship of classified materials

          COMMENT
          Not sure what is meant by 'non-corporeality' ... some kind of disembodied hysteria?  lol

          Or, maybe something immaterial and therefore invalid?

          Not sure if I'm on the right track. 
          Going with unreality re 'non-corporeality' mentioned in article (as follows):
          "hysteria and non-corporeality"
          Article's a good read.
