We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.
—- William J. Casey, Director of Central Intelligence (1981 – 1987)
While the United states Armed Forces (private mercenaries) are in Korea, “champion[ing] liberty wherever the tyranny of communism is the aggressor,” the Central Intelligence Agency reports to Democratic (socialist/fascist) President Truman that there is “no convincing indication” the communist People’s Republic of (mainland/“Red”) China will not intervene in the Korean-American War.
Postscript: Two weeks later the People’s “Volunteer” (conscripts) Army, of China, crossed the Yalu River into Korea.
