Some practical points

[Josh]

It’s a good idea to have them hiring a lot of pawns who have to think. That disadvantages them and helps us.

Khalid el Masri – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khalid_El-Masri – is my new hero. The 1 in 3000 who gets out and even wins a lawsuit.

A follow-up highlight to other points I made – the following are not contradictory in any way:

1) Almost everything you hear is by controlled design and is often highly scripted disinfo

2) Spook has involved a lot of people over time in stuffing me. It is easy to keep telling fake stories in the short term to each new shift of nobodies, when there is no media etc. But the more noise I make, the harder it is to keep those stories straight indefinitely, higher up the ladder. There is an awkwardness to organizing criminal action in secrecy and lying about it in secrecy & keeping those balls in the air for long enough. Spook feels like they have managed tougher problems before, and that’s almost certainly true. But I hope they get tripped up, managing simultaneously to stuff/end me and keep the reality a secret “national security” mystery.

That combination is why I’ve come to feel it’s more helpful/relevant for me to talk/write than to hear the disinfo that’s fed to you. It’s easy for Spook to control what you all hear…harder, I hope, to forever hide whatever I say. Spook tries to deal with that by blocking all out channels and making me sound like a crazy loon to be dismissed. Strategically, the playing field is clear. I can’t strategically think of any reason why Spook would let you hear useful info at this point, unless you can somehow access things that are not covered and completely unpredictable.
