"Western intervention in the affairs of other civilizations
is probably the single most dangerous source of instability and
potential global conflict in a multi-civilizational world."
S. Huntington, 1996.
NEW CIA COVERT OPERATIONS
It appears that former DCI John Deutch is getting his wish
and the CIA is conducting or escalating yet another paramilitary and
political action operation, this time in Tibet. The CIA also runs
paramilitary operations in The Sudan, Libya, Iraq and probably many others.
In Tibet, it appears that the Agency is using the cover of Fulbright
Scholarships that will be soiled by the presumed or real linkage
to the Agency. There is also compelling evidence that the CIA has and
continues to use the International Committee of the Red Cross to support
paramilitary operations.
Covert operations against Tibet have been conducted at least since the
mid 1950s but they now again appear to be gaining in momemtum. One wonders
what the CIA expects to accomplish -- there is no chance of imposing U.S.
will over China, it can be upsetting to China but at the cost of many Tibetan
lives and damage to U.S. relations with China. The recent information says:
A bomb expoded in the Tibetan capital of Lhasa on 12/25/96 and marked
a violent upturn in the formerly low-key resistance to Chinese rule. A
device detonated ouside a government office -- believed to be base for
operations against the Tibetan movement. A Chinese radio broadcast said
it was "an appalling act of terrorism" and "yet another counterrevolutionary
bombing staged by the Dalai clique." The London-based "Tibet Information
Network," said Chinese authorities were caught off guard by the explosion.
This is the third bomb known to have been detonated this year.
Washington Times 12/30/96 A13.
Earlier it was reported that China jailed a Tibetan music expert
touring the Himalayan region on a U.S. scholarship for 18 years for
spying. Ngawang Choephel, was traveling as a Fulbright scholar to
"produce a documentary about traditional music and dance." He confessed
to having been sent to Tibet by the Dalai Lama clique on behalf of a
foreign country to conduct espionage -- in a thinly veiled references
to the United States. Washington Times 12/28/96 A5.
Another citation re Choepel said confessed to (spying) on behalf of
an unnamed country. Choepel had studied and taught at Middlebury College
in Vermount from 93-94 on a U.S. government-sponsored Fulbright scholarship.
He was affiliated with the Tibetan Institute for the Performing Arts in
Dharamsala, India, where the Dalai Lama's government is based.
Washington Post 12/28/96 A19.
Other indications of U.S. support for operations in Tibet are:
A group of marchers trekking seven hours a day from the Chinese embassy
in Washington to New York City. The walk was sponsored by the International
Tibet Independence Movement, the U.S. Tibet Committee, the Tibetan Women's
Association, and Students of Free Tibet. The group was led by Thubten Jigme
Norbu, the Dalai Lama's eldest brother and Palden Gyatso. In 1959, Gyatso
organized 500 monks against the Chinese invasion of Tibet's capital. Larry
Gerstein, a coordinator of the march for Tibet's independence said, "`We'
are not interested in negotiating with China, we're interested in a free and
independent Tibet." The Progressive 5/96 16. (Comment: In 1956 the
American Society for a Free Asia, a CIA front organization, sponsored
a U.S. lecture tour by Thubten Norbu. Prados, J. (1986). Presidents'
Secret Wars 154).
Radio Free Asia (RFA) started broadcasting to China 9/30/96. RFA,
which eventually intends to also broadcast to Tibet, Burma, Cambodia,
Laos, North Korea and Vietnam, is the result of the U.S. International
Broadcasting Act of 1994 (PL 103-236, title III): "the continuation of
existing U.S. international broadcasting, and the creation of a new
broadcasting service to people of the People's Republic of China and
other countries of Asia, which lack adequate sources of free information
and ideas, would enhance the promotion of information and ideas, while
advancing the goals of U.S. foreign policy." (sec. 302(4).

The National Endowment for Democracy (NED), a CIA surrogate, is also
active re Tibet (as it is in approximately 90 other countries).
A NED grant to the Tibet Fund of $35,420 to distribute cassettes,
videotapes and booklets on Democracy in Tibet, and among Tibetan exile
communities in India and Nepal. National Endowment for Democracy annual
report 94 49.
NED funded "Tibet Voice," to produce tapes for distribution. Tapes
included multiple addresses by the Dali Lama. National Endowment for
Democracy Annual Reports 1994 and 1995.
A NED grant to the International Campaign for Tibet $25,000 to enhance
Chinese knowledge of Tibet by contributing articles about Tibet to
newspapers and magazines within China and abroad; to arrange meetings among
key opinion makers; and to translate books about Tibet into Chinese.
National Endowment for Democracy Annual report 95.
The International Campaign for Tibet was involved with a meeting
of more than 400 Chinese students, scholars, and prominent Democracy
activists who gathered at Faneuil Hall in Boston for the largest meeting
ever held between the Dalai Lama and Chinese activists to discuss a
democratic future for China and Tibet. Newsletter of NED winter 96.

CIA operations = Operation Phoenix
http://www.serendipity.li/cia/operation_phoenix.htmCIA and Operation Phoenix in Vietnam
by Ralph McGehee, 1996-02-19
Until outlawed in mid 70s CIA directly involved in assassination attempts against Castro of Cuba, and Congolese leader Lumumba. CIA also encouraged plots that resulted in assassination of Dominican Republic President Trujillo, South Vietnamese president Ngo Dinh Diem in 63 and Chilean Rene Schneider in 73. Most extensive assassination op was Operation Phoenix conducted during latter part of VN war. Twentieth Century Fund. (1992). The Need to Know: Covert Action and American Democracy, 83.
Vietnam, 65-70 details re Vietnam. From 65-68 U.S. and Saigon intel services maintained an active list of VC cadre marked for assassination. Phoenix Program for 69 called for "neutralizing" 1800 a month. About one third of VC targeted for arrest had been summarily killed. Security committees established in provincial interrogation centers to determine fate of VC suspects, outside of judicial controls. Green Berets and navy SEALs most common recruits for Phoenix Program. Green Beret detachment B-57 provided admin cover for other intel units. One was project cherry, tasked to assassinate Cambodian officials suspected of collaborating with NVNese, and kgb. Another was project oak targeted against svnese suspected collaborators. They controlled by special assistant for counterinsurgency and special activities, which worked with CIA outside of general abrams control. Stein. J. (1992), A Murder in Wartime, 360-1.
Vietnam, 66-73 Phoenix op from 1/68 thru 5/71, CORDS reported 20,857 VCI killed. Gvt of VN reported 40,994 from 8/68 thru mid 71. Per cord statistics 12.4% Deaths could be attributed to Phoenix ops. Kenneth osborn of program said Phoenix became a depersonalized murder program. A dept of defense analyst thayer, found that 616 suspected VCI targeted by Phoenix from 1/70 thru 3/71 were killed by Phoenix forces. After war NVNese foreign minister Nguyen Co Thach said CIA's assassination program slaughtered far more than the 21,000 officially listed by the U.S. In some parts of south 95% of communist cadre assassinated or compromised by Phoenix. Manning, R., (ed), (1988), War in the Shadows: the Vietnam Experience, 72.
Vietnam, 68-72 Under Phoenix "security committees" in provincial "interrogation centers" would determine fate suspected NLF. Counterspy spring/summer 78, 8.
Vietnam, 69 Under Phoenix in July 69 "Vietnam information notes," a state dept publication said target for 69 elimination of 1,800 VCI per month. Frazier, H. (ed). (1978), Uncloaking the CIA, 97.
Vietnam, 73 According to Defense Dept official 26,369 South Vietnamese civilians killed under Phoenix while op under direct U.S. control (Jan 68 thru Aug 72 ). By same source, another 33,358 detained without trial. Colby in 73 admitted 20,587 deaths thru end 71 , 28,978 captured, and 17,717 "rallied" to Saigon gvt. Thus approx 30% targeted individuals killed. All Phoenix stats fail to reflect U.S. Activity after "official" U.S. Control of op abandoned. Counterspy spring/summer 75 8.
Vietnam, 75 Counter-spy magazine describes Phoenix Program as "the most indiscriminate and massive program of political murder since the nazi death camps of world war two." Counterspy spring/summer 75 6.
Vietnam, in 82 Ex-Phoenix operative reveals that sometimes orders were given to kill U.S. military personnel who were considered security risks. He suspects the orders came not from "division", but from a higher authority such as the CIA or the ONI. Covert Action Information Bulletin (now Covert Action Quarterly) summer 82 52.
Vietnam. Phoenix Program to neutralize VCI (tax collectors, supply officers, political cadre, local military officials, etc). Plan to send pru or police teams to get in practice, death the frequent result of such ops, some times through assassinations pure and simple. Powers, T. (1979), The Man Who Kept the Secret, 181.

Vietnam, 67-73 The Phoenix Program used the CIA's assassination squads, the former counter terror teams later called the provincial reconnaissance units (PRU). Technically they did not mark cadres for assassinations but in practice the pru's anticipated resistance in disputed areas and shot first. People taken prisoner were denounced in Saigon-held areas, picked up at checkpoints or captured in combat and later identified as VC. Sheehan, N. (1988), A Bright Shining Lie, 732.
Vietnam, Phoenix Program, late 60 early 70 took over 20,000 lives in Vietnam. U.S. Congress,Church Committee Report. (1976) B 1 27.
