Leaked US docs
lifted veil on
imperialist nature
of USA foreign policy
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------
Communication

Early empires

Stone
  • transmission of compressed institutional rules
to be safely communicated
  • into future

Early methods did not allow for:
  • rapidly unfolding events
  • official nuance or discretion
gaps addressed by:
  • oral medium
  • other:
  • eg papyrus
  • light and fast to create, but fragile
  • easy to construct and transport, unifying occupied regions
  • = rapid information flow | could:
  • = feed reactive central management
  • = integrate incoming streams of intelligence
  • = swiftly project outgoing decisions
{but with tendencies toward short-termism & micromanagement}
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------

Absolute boundary to existence of empire:

= ability to project an empire’s:
  • desires
  • structure
  • knowledge
  • across space
  • across time
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------

Hallmark of empire

= structured attempt at managing an extended
  • cultural; and
  • economic
system
  • using communications
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------
 USG DoS Empire Communications
| Vulnerable to Dissection
  • records of these communications
( never intended to be dissected / especially vulnerable to dissection)
  • form the basis for understanding nature of world’s sole remaining “empire.”
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------
Anatomy of US Empire

Where is it?
  • 191 countries
  • 276 fortified buildings
  • 169 embassies & other missions of USG
  • 71,000 people across those countries
  • 27 different US govt ('USG') agencies
  • 27 other USG departments ('depts') & agencies
incl:
  • Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)
  • National Security Agency (NSA)
  • Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)
  • US military (various branches)
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------

Embassy Components

Ambassador
= usually close to domestic US
  • political;
  • business; or
  • intelligence
power
Career Diplomats
= specialize in
  • politics;
  • economy; and
  • public diplomacy [propaganda];
of their host state.
Others:
  • managers
  • researchers
  • military attachés
  • spies under foreign-service cover
  • personnel from other USG agencies
  • *some embassies:  may have
  • overt armed military; or 
  • covert special ops forces
Caretakers | Services
  • contractors
  • security personnel
  • technicians
  • locally hired translators
  • cleaners
  • other service personnel
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------

USG empire communication means:
  • radio
  • satellite
  • some communication USG mainland:
  • receive; or
  • disgorge
diplomatic and CIA cables
  • some relay the communications of US military ships & planes
  • others = NSA mass-intercept of
  • mobile phones
  • other wireless traffic
of host population
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------

USG Diplomatic Service History

  • Dates back to the American Revolution  1765 - 1783 | here
  • Modern US DoS came into being: post WWII
  • 1973 - appointment of Henry Kissinger as secretary of state
concurrent appointed of Henry Kissinger as: national security advisor
facilitated tighter integration b/w following arms of USG:
  • foreign relations
  • military
  • intelligence
  • 1973 - cables transmitted in bulk, electronically *for first time*

US Department of State ('DoS')
UNIQUE - Among USA Bureaucracies

Other USG agencies
= one function admin

US DoS
= represents / houses
= all major elements of US national power
  • = cover for CIA
  • = buildings for NSA mass-interception equipment
  • = office space & communications facilities for:
  • FBI
  • military
  • other USG agencies & staff
  • to act as sales agents & political advisors for largest US corporations
     
    ---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------
Understanding US DoS

diplomatic apparatus
cannot properly understood from outside
  • US DoS
  • = directly involved in putting a friendly face on empire
  • = ie concealing US DoS underlying mechanics
  • 'public diplomacy'
= outward propaganda
  • $1 billion p.a. is budgeted by USA
for outward propaganda ('public diplomacy')
  • USG DoS propaganda ('public diplomacy')
aims to influence:
1) journalists; and
2) civil society;
so that they serve as *conduits* for US DoS messaging
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------

USG DoS | Released Info | National Archives

national archives = impressive collections of internal state communications
BUT - material intentionally withheld
(or made difficult to access) for DECADES

aim: to strip info of potency

reason: potential 'blowback'
ie.  timely, accessible archives of international significance
*would produce 'blowback' in the form of:
  • withdrawn funding; or
  • termination of officials
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------

Potency of Secret Communications Revealed
| The Naked Empire

publication
  • = vivisection of a living empire
  • = (showing what substance flowed from which state organ & when)
  • = internal communications by-product of activities of US DoS
  • = not produced in order to manipulate public
  • = cables aimed at elements of rest of US state apparatus
  • = therefore relatively free from distorting influence of public relations
  • = reading US DoS cables (internal communications, stripped of propaganda / external influence intent) | 
  • = much more effective way of understanding an institution like US DoS than reading reports by journalist (fed to them by likes of Hillary Clinton & Jen Psaki)
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------
Note however:

cables / internal communications 
of US DoS officials
= must match their pens to the latest DC orthodoxies

= elements of political correctness

= noteworthy & visible to outsiders who are not sufficiently indoctrinated

Cables show how US DoS (& agencies that inter-operate with cable system)
= understand their place in the world


KEY to understanding:

Only by approaching this corpus holistically (above localised atrocity & individual abuses):
does the true human cost of empire heave into view
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------
COMMENT
Above extracts/summary are my way of distilling what is key (to me).  Best to read the article itself, in case there's gaps in my understanding.
Following not clear to me:

serve as *conduits* for US DoS messaging

Is that the journalists & members of civil society to serve as conduits of US DoS messaging, as result of US DoS 'public diplomacy' propaganda?  That's what I assumed.
