Counter-Intelligence -- The Interview
Intelligence

This is Scott Noble from Metanoia films.

I recently did a two-part interview for Dissident Voice on the subject of my recent documentary, Counter-Intelligence.

The interview covers a wide variety of topics, including the birth of the CIA, the rise of military industrial intelligence complex, black operations, plausible deniability and compartmentalization, mercenary groups, "national security," NSA spying, false flag and pseudo operations, the 911 truth movement, "conspiracy theory," "debunkers," definitions of terrorism, and modern warfare.

Part 1:

The film itself can be viewed online here:

Thank you.

The camera walks you into a beautiful valley, stumbling along the dangerous terrain, to reach a view simply described by a character from the film as ‘Our heaven’.

The valley spreads out against the mist playing hide-and-seek, revealing a landscape pristine and magical. The camera stays on the image of clouds floating across two distant peaks as the character recounts a local myth surrounding the two, Mt Vice and Mt Virtue. “The gods resided in these mountains,” Shanta, a boy from Malana, continues, “This depicts the ratio of virtue and vice in the world. See, Mt Virtue is melting away. People say when Mt Virtue melts entirely, the world will come to an end.” The voice continues, lamenting the diminishing peak of virtue.

The camera waits patiently till the two peaks melt into the mist. The surreal curtain of mist sets the mood for a trip into a world that is struggling to preserve its unique identity, language and system of sustenance.

The film begins like a fairytale, the story of a little village in Himachal Pradesh called Malana, held in India’s popular imagination as the mystical land where top-quality cannabis is grown and traded.

Bom (2011), which means ‘a celestial void’ in Sanskrit, is a stunning National Award winning documentary by Amlan Datta.

Director: Heike Bachelier

Prix Europa 2011: Best Documentary Feature Film
FILMZ, Festival des deutschen Kinos, Mainz 2010: Best Documentary


A documentary thriller from the days of the cold war. Two ex-friends from the now defunct East Germany meet up after many years. One was once a dissident, the other spied on him for the Stasi. One went to prison and one did not. A gripping, unsettling story told through two ordinary people, of how a dictatorship like the GDR could spin so effective a web and control its population so completely.
---
East Germany 30 years ago, a student asks too many questions, is expelled and ordered to do manual work in a factory. Looking for an intellectual outlet the young man becomes a member of the Protestant Student’s Group (PSG) and airs his opinions. Meanwhile another young man, believing in a socialist society, joins the group to try to educate critical members in the error of their ways. The Stasi recruit this young man as a voluntary operative, codename “Hans Kramer“. When he reports about this one very critical young man, the Stasi order him to befriend this “enemy“ - with life shattering consequences.

The secret Stasi files of this incident and the emotional meeting of both men today unravel a multilayered story of friendship and betrayal, guilt and forgiveness. An era comes alive, a time when the Stasi could wrap their tentacles around every aspect of society and manipulate emotions and feelings to maintain control over the GDR.

Its a few years since I did torrents. I have noticed an increasing trend. More of the things I am looking for are disappearing into the memory hole and are only available on archive.org and torrents. They seem to be slowly slipping away from archive too.

What is the current best no brainer torrent program to use?

PM'd you some stuff, we can't share torrents or links to torrent sites here because hilariously, that is a sufficient threat to the powers that be to create problems for US based message boards. It gets trolled for regularly by automated scripts run by large businesses.

I host a shit-ton of torrents for films because I'm one of less than 10 seeds -- and sometimes, the only seed. I often feel it's a waste of bandwidth and disk space but seeing people steadily downloading gives me a strange kind of solace, that there's motherfuckers out there still seeking the good shit. I don't begrudge anyone not seeding, though: it's stupid.

The Nightmare, a documentary by Rodney Ascher (Room 237) about sleep paralysis, is now available from Netflix for streaming or as a DVD. I liked it.

Wernor Herzog and Errol Morris present what's being described
as the must see documentary of the year.

Going to watch this sequel soon, now that it's finally out there with English subtitles. Act of Killing completely blew me away...

Nothing RI-level weird about this, just watching documentaries in French on youtube for language purposes, but this is visually beautiful:
