1. Can someone make a copy of that video for download? So we can all get a copy to show others.
2. Research for more videos from Robert Welch and the John Birch society.

More recently, Anatoliy Golitsyn, a Soviet defector of high status, has suggested that the Soviet Union is capable of disinformation on such a massive scale that even the Borkenau system is no longer viable.2 In a book first published in 1984, and of necessity written before then, Golitsyn argues that the leadership of the whole Communist bloc came to an agreement in 1958 in which it established a long range program, a master plan, which it would realize through a large scale deception of the West, a monumental scam.
Golitsyn maintains that the goals of the master plan were to provide a more profound political stabilization of individual communist regimes by developing wider mass support, the rectification of economic weakness of the bloc by increased international trade and the acquisition of credits and high technology from the West, the creation of a substructure for an eventual world federation of communist states, political isolation of the US from its allies, developing influence among socialists in Western Europe and Japan, the dissolution of NATO, and an alignment between the Soviet Union and a neutral, preferably socialist, Western Europe; concerted action with nationalist leaders in the Third World to eliminate Western influence as a preliminary to absorbing them in a communist federation, shifting the balance of power in favor of the Communist world, and the ideological disarmament of the West to create favorable conditions for convergence of East and West on communist terms.
Golitsyn predicts that the Soviet regime will be stabilized by the creation of spurious, controlled opposition movements and the use of those movements to neutralize genuine internal and external opposition, and that it will encourage communist parties to establish united fronts with socialist parties throughout the world thus increasing Soviet influence in parliaments and trade unions.4
Some of the techniques, according to Golitsyn, will be dissension within the bloc, unity of action behind disunity of words, a show of weakness before meeting with Western leaders or before major initiatives or negotiations, and the heavy use of disinformation.5 This disinformation will emanate from official Communist sources, unofficial Communist sources, and "secret" communist sources, much of it retrospective. It is to be delivered through Western newspapermen, scholars, officials, and the Soviet intelligentsia.
.................
The final phase of the master plan, according to Golitsyn, is a disinformation and deception campaign of such magnitude that it would be "beyond the imagination of Marx, or the practical reach of Lenin, and unthinkable to Stalin. Among such previously unthinkable stratagems are the introduction of false liberalization in Eastern Europe and, probably, the Soviet Union, and the exhibition of spurious independence on the part of the regimes in Romania, Czechoslovakia, and Poland."
Golitsyn predicted the "breakup" of the communist bloc in Eastern Europe as a technique to be used by the Soviet government to entice Europe to move more towards socialism and to align itself eventually with the USSR against the United States. The Third World would then join communist Russia and socialist Western Europe against the US and its allies. Then there would be a joint drive by the Soviet bloc and a socialist Europe to push the US out of Europe and into nuclear disarmament. A powerful world federation of communist states would emerge and the US would be induced to "converge" on communist terms.
Spies Caught In the Web
Sunday, Mar. 16, 2003
Czech Republic They became known as the "Cibulka lists" — some 200,000 names of alleged collaborators and officers of Czechoslovakia's communist-era secret police (StB) — named for Petr Cibulka, a former dissident turned free-lance StB hunter who published them a decade ago. Although the Czech government once forced Cibulka to stop posting them on his website, it's now putting its own version online.
On March 20, the Czech Interior Ministry (www.mvcr.cz) will post names of some 100,000 alleged StB collaborators, as well as 9,000 organizations the communists spied on at home and abroad. An online database searchable by name is in the works. Pavel Bret, a deputy director of the Bureau for the Documentation and Investigation of Communist Crimes, says the new disclosures should help victims of communist persecution deal with the past, but will also serve as a warning to "those who are too young to remember."
To catch a spy
The Miami Herald. Posted on Thu, Mar. 21, 2002.
Ana Belén Montes didn't fit the profile of a spy. Neither did FBI agent Robert Hanssen. Yet both burrowed undetected for years in highly sensitive intelligence jobs while compromising U.S. national security.
Federal agencies must find better ways to uncover moles in their ranks. The United States is plowing re- sources into identifying terrorists. It's senseless to allow spies to undermine us from within. Why did it take 16 years to uncover Montes, who on Tuesday pleaded guilty to espionage?
She had already been recruited by Cuban intelligence when she joined the Defense Intelligence Agency in 1985, according to the Justice Department. By the time U.S. authorities caught up with her last year, she was considered the Pentagon's top Cuba analyst. By then she also had identified at least four U.S. intelligence agents for her Cuban handlers.
U.S. authorities said that none of the four betrayed by Montes were physically harmed. Unfortunately that wasn't so with the U.S. operatives that Hanssen gave up to the Soviet Union, some of whom were killed.

I watched the video. It all seemed very general & non-specific to me. I didn't hear any great revelations.
