burn

burn by Mickie Quick.
Please Note: This is a redesigned booklet. It was redesigned by an Australian called Xerocorp. It therefore has "British-isms", spelling differences from how the CIA would spell some words. The original (with 'American-isms') can be found here: geocities.com/eco-action/crapaganda/xcia.htm

Here is the online text that comes with the redesigned booklet:

The original document on which this one is based was a sabotage manual produced by the United States Central Intelligence Agency for distribution in Nicaragua in the 1980’s. It was hoped that if enough disenfranchised individuals undertook activities that subverted economic stability, the Leftist government would be more easily overthrown. The manual described itself as “a practical guide to... paralyzing the military-industrial complex... without having to use special tools and with minimal risk for the combatant.”

It continues, “Some might think that today’s armed struggle requires military supplies and economic resources only available to states or terorist bands... There is an essential economic infrastructure that any government needs to function, which can easily be disabled or even paralyzed without the use of armaments or costly and advanced equipment, with the small investment of resources and time.

The folowing pages present a series of useful sabotage techniques, the majority of which can be done with simple household tools such as scissors, empty botles, screwdrivers, matches, etc. These measures are extremely safe and without risk for those who use them, as they do not require equipment, skill or specialized activities that can draw attention to the doer.

One combatant can perform many of them, without having to turn to collaborators or having to make a detailed plan beforehand. These are acts that can be done practically in an improvised way every time an occasion presnts itself. Our sacred cause needs to have more men and women join

What better way for the Sandinistas to discredit the CIA than to come up with something like this and attribute it to the CIA. Evidence: 1) it's calculated to stir up resentment against its publisher more than actually provoke the actions shown and 2) as others have pointed out, things like "tyres" and odd typography show it's probably written and produced by someone outside the U.S. culture.

If you believe this is CIA, you probably believe that Bhopal was an accident. See special holiday pricing at clues-R-us.com.

If you believe this is produced by the Sandinistas simply because of the typography and because you "resent" the publisher because of this publishing, then you probably believe COINTELPRO was leftist propaganda designed to "discredit the CIA." See special holiday pricing at clues-R-us.com.
And no, I don't "think Bhopal was an accident." Retard.

or maybe that's what they WANT you to think.

I'm sorry, but if you read the comments at the first photo, they say that the booklet was translated into english in 1999 by an *australian*. They use the old english spelling.
