    T.S.O.G.The Creature That Ate the Constitutionby Robert Anton Wilson

    How, how, how did we ever get ourselves in a predicament where anOriental-style despot controls American medicine and most doctors fear to

    prescribe what they think best for their patients? Why, over 200 years after awar to liberate ourselves from a half-mad king, have we allowed our lives andhealth to come under the rule of a totally mad Tsar? And has this monstroustumor destroyed most of the Constitution only "by accident," or did itscreators have that intent all along?Well, here's my theory:Most people think the TSOG [Tsarist Occupation Government] began itsinfestation of America with George Bush Sr., when he appointed a Tsar todiscombobulate our previously democratic form of government; but Bush had along C.I.A. career behind him and the C.I.A. had a long, long Tsarist historybefore they came out in the open with a public and blatant Tsar, a functionarynot endowed or permitted by any clause in our Constitution.Actually, the TSOG began replacing representative democracy in the U.S. way

    back in 1945, when Gen. Rheinhard Gehlen, Hitler's Chief of SovietIntelligence, surrendered to the U.S. Army, after first prudently buryingseveral truckloads of "inside information" about the Soviet Union at a secretlocation.Gehlen was not only a master spy but a wizard negotiator. Within a week, hewas out of his Nazi uniform and into a U.S. Army General's uniform; the U.S.intelligence services, in return, got the info about the Soviets, includingaccess to Gehlen's agents in the Soviet government -- a group of MysticalTsarists who had infiltrated both the Red Army and the KGB.You see, their leader and Gehlen's major "asset," General Andrei Vlassov, hada fervent belief, not just in common or garden Tsarism, but especially in the"mystical Tsarism" espoused in the later half of the 19th Century by theanti-Semitic novelist Dostoyevsky and even more by Konstantin Pobedonostsev,

    an advisor to two Tsars [Alexander III and Nicholas II].Pobedonostsev, popularly called "The Grand Inquisitor" because of the vastplatoons of spies, snoops, agents provocateur and informers he unleashed uponthe Russian people , combined theological obsessions with reactionarypolitics, always an explosive and nefarious mixture."Mystical Tsarism" deserves a whole book in itself. especially since it nowrules our own country; but we must be brief here. This holy religion, orsuperstition -- as you will --has two major tenets: (1) The Tsar is guided byGod and can do no wrong (2) Reason is "cold" and inhuman, faith is "warm" andhuman; therefore we should ignore reason and guide ourselves by faith in theTsar, our "Little Father." I don't think any of Pobedonostsev's crew actuallybelieved in the Tooth Fairy, though.Besides, Roman Catholics of the old school have similar attitudes, but merely

    prefer a Pope to do their thinking for them instead of a Tsar, and most of usconsider them sane, but just "weird."Gen. Gehlen and Gen. Vlassov formed what became the Gehlenapparat, the CIA'smain source of info on Soviet affairs; Gehlen became the fulcrum of the CIA's"Soviet penetration" sector, working under James Jesus Angleton, Chief ofCounter-Intelligence, breeder of prize orchids, lover of the arts, and adevout Catholic.Since the U.S. government based its foreign policies on CIA reports, and theCIA based its Soviet reports on Gehlen and some other former Nazis, plus acrew of Mystical Tsarists, as filtered and interpreted by a Papistintellectual, the U.S. government's ideas and actions became increasingly

    "weird, " bizarre and frightening, in the view of the rest of the world. Theresults are very sad and very funny. In a nutshell, most of the world thinkswe've gone batshit crazy. "Tsarists and Nazis and spooks, oh my!"Although James Jesus Angleton was Gehlen's alleged supervisor, data indicatesthat the Gehlenapparat engaged in many activities, including kidnapping,extortion, murder etc. about which Angleton either did not know or devoutlydid not want to know.But James J. Angleton was a pathological case of some sort himself; he often

    hid his middle name because it revealed his half-Hispanic genes. Anexceptionally intelligent and sensitive student of modern literature while atYale, Angleton adored Ezra Pound, Wallace Stevens, I.A. Richards, e e cummingsand other SuperStars of Modernism; he met most of them personally. Theycollectively influenced Angleton's fascination with multiple perspectives,labyrinthine ambiguity and the eternal uncertainty of all inferences and"interpretations." These modernist tendencies, which also appeared in scienceand philosophy at the same time, blossomed into obsessions and, perhaps,raging madness when Angleton systematically applied them to the spy-game.After all, modernism really begins with Wilde's "The Reality of Masks" andYeats's hermetic mystique the world we know emerging from interactions ofMask, Anti-Mask, Self, and Anti-Self: which may or may not fit all of us orall the world but certainly fits the world of spooks and snoops that Angleton

    created.Another CIA officer, Edward Petty, described Angleton as "a lone wolf" and "astrange bird"; every other source I have found bluntly calls him "paranoid."He suspected everybody else in the CIA, and in "our" government generally, ofbeing KGB moles, and operated with so much modernist ambiguity and hiddentrapdoors that, in Petty's words, "nobody really knows" what he was doing mostof the time. In short, he became as esoteric as the poets he admired, andremade the C.I.A. and, increasingly, our whole nation into a theatre ofimpenetrable mystery.A.J. Weberman, a leading Kennedy assassination buff, thinks Angletonpersonally organized the JFK hit, an idea also strongly hinted at by NormanMailer's documentary novel, Harlot's Ghost, in which Angleton appears as "HughMontague." [Angleton's father was named Hugh; Angleton's code name was

    "Mother," and Montague's is "Harlot."Work on that, ye seekers of multiplemeaning. ]If James Jesus really arranged the JFK assassination, he had probably decidedthat Kennedy was the top Soviet mole of all.Why not? Angleton had Tsarist agents in all sorts of nooks of the Sovietsystem, and he knew the KGB was smart enough and tireless enough toreciprocate by planting their own Masks and Anti-Masks in his own backyard, ormaybe under his bed at night. According to Edward Jay Epstein, J.J.A.s endlesssearch for Soviet moles nearly destroyed the C.I.A. itself. Certainly,everybody in "the Company" learned to distrust everybody else.Imagine a U.S. Caine with not one Queeg as captain, but a whole crew ofQueegs, each worrying about what the others might be plotting. Angletoncreated that ship of shape-shifters in the C.I.A. and then by osmosis it

    spread through the government, evolving into the TSOG.In short, the government cannot trust us, because it can never know withabsolute certainty what mischief we may hatch; and every sentence we speakinto a bugged phone may have as many possible meanings as Eliot's "The roseand the fire are one."In William F. Buckley Jr.'s docu-novel Spytime: The Undoing of James JesusAngleton occurs a scene that epiphanizes the TSOG's looped and relooped logic.Angleton and an associate discuss 17 or 37 possible interpretations of a bitof information [or disinformation] passed on by a possible Soviet defector[who might be a Soviet mole.] At the end of the discussion, J.J.A. points outone more "reading" that the associate hadn't considered: namely, that Angleton

    himself might be the top Soviet mole of all. You can't learn more aboutambiguity and irony in a seminar on the poetry of Empson.In the same vein, after the death by drowning of "Montague"[Angleton] inHarlot's Ghost, the CIA systematically investigates such alternative scenariosas: he's not dead, and another water-rotted corpse has been foisted on them;the Soviets did it and have him full of truth serums already; he went over tothe Soviets willingly; he was working for the Reds all along."Trust No One," the motto of X Files, seems the only safe rule in the world

    Angleton created.Tsarism represents an intermediate form between Europeanmonarchism and Asian despotism, being, possibly, closer to thelatter of these two.

    Leon Trotsky, Russia's Social Development and TsarismThe TSOG stalketh the land and the serfs bow and worship it.It stealeth property, it burneth neighborhoods, it killethall opposition. Ye think it only doth its violence toblack people, or Hispanics, or kooks with odd religions,but its hand is at your own throat even now. TSOG fthagn!What, are ye stupid, or something?

    In any case, Angleton had an alliance with Italian fascists and the Mafia,dating from 1944 when he was an O.S.S. officer in Italy. "Operation Gladio," aCIA project to control Italian elections, was based on Angleton'sfascist-Mafia connections, and employed techniques as varied as hiring SophiaLoren to do TV commercials for politicians the CIA liked, bribing liberal/leftpoliticos to move toward more right-wing positions, and employing the Mafia toassassinate some who couldn't be bribed, e.g. Prime Minster Aldo Moro. Inrecruiting for Gladio, Angleton had a secret meeting with his old friend EzraPound, in Genoa. Pound, under indictment for radio broadcasts that he called"personal propaganda on behalf of the U.S. Constitution" and the Department of

    Justice called "treason," did not get recruited into Gladio and instead spent13 years in a hospital for the criminally insane, for expressing his viewsabout bankers over the wrong radio station.J.J.A. had better luck with a former Gestapo informant named Licio Gelli, whoformed a secret society called P2 within the Grand Orient Lodge of EgyptianFreemasonry and eventually infiltrated over 950 agents into the Italiangovernment. Through P2 connections and Roberto Calvi, a P2 member andpresident of Banco Ambrosiano in Milan, Gladio merged the Mafia's druglaundering system with ongoing CIA projects, using as screens the Vatican Bankand 200 "ghost banks" which existed only in Calvi's ledgers. TheTsarist-CIA-Mafia chieftains then had almost total control over both themulti-billion dollar illegal drug business and the even more profitableanti-drug business.

    It worked like this: among the 200 "ghost banks" that existed only as a postaldrops, a few real, or tangible, banks existed. One, the Cisalpine Bank in theBahamas, jointly owned by Roberto Calvi of Banco Ambrosiani and ArchbishopPaul "The Gorilla" Marcinkus, served as the major funnel for money laundering.Its primary links were the Franklin National Bank, owned by fellow Gladioasset Michele "The Shark" Sindona, and the World Finance Corporation, ownedand managed by 8 "former" [or allegedly "former"] C.I.A. officers.Cocaine profits generally went through the World Finance Corporation, inMiami, and thence via Cisalpine, into the maze of ghost banks, and thencethrough Ambrosiano and the Vatican to numbered Swiss bank accounts. Heroinprofits ran through the Nyugun Hand Bank, also run by "former" C.I.A. agents

    and thence into the same labyrinth.Some of the drug money bought guns for terrorists and generally financed whatWashington Post journalist Bob Woodward called "the undeclared wars of theC..I.A." The rest was sheer gravy, for those high in the TSOG, and it ran intobillions a year for the Gladio group alone.Meanwhile, the TSOG drug cartel scored psycho-political gains as well asstuffing those numbered bank accounts. By flooding the U.S with crack, theywere able to create a mob hysteria that surpassed McCarthyism and now ranks

    beside the medieval witch-hunts; in the smoke and mirrors, only a few noticedthat the Constitution is being dismantled plank by plank.As William S. Burroughs wrote 30 years ago, "Drug control is a thin pretext,and getting thinner, to increase police powers and to brand dissent ascriminal." A voice crying in the wilderness.....Angleton was finally removed from the CIA in 1974 when caught meddling in U.S.elections -- something that the CIA is only supposed to do in other countries.Calvi of Banco Ambrosiano was assassinated by the Mafia, for unknown reasons,in 1982. His secretary fell or was thrown out of her office window the sameday Calvi was found hanged. Michele "The Shark" Sindona, another of theGladio/P2/Mafia inner circle--remember? -- was convicted of 64 counts of stockand currency fraud in New York, and of murdering a bank examiner in Rome; hewas poisoned in prison while awaiting trial on other charges. Archbishop Paul

    "The Gorilla" Marcinkus was replaced as president of the Vatican Bank, whenhis role in Gladio drug-money laundering was revealed in the trials of lesserculprits, and later he got booted out of the Vatican entirely.Licio Gelli stood trial for conspiracy but was acquitted. Later, evidenceshowed that Gelli was working for the KGB as well as the CIA; which side hedouble-crossed most often remains unknown. But then Gelli had worked for theCommunist Underground in WWII, while also on the payroll of the Gestapo, andnobody claims to know which side he betrayed most often in that case either.Mino Pecorelli, the first journalist to expose Gladio/P2 infiltration of theItalian government, was killed on a street in Rome, shot through the mouth --the sasso in bocca, traditional Mafia punishment for informers. The same fatebefell Sam Giancana,Mafia boss of Chicago, when subpoenaed by a congressionalcommittee on assassinations -- another sasso in bocca. Johnny Roselli, another

    Mafioso often involved in Tsarist/CIA projects, simply disappeared when he gothis subpoena. His body was found floating in a barrel in the Gulf of Mexico.The major open functions of Mystical Tsarism now are the Drug EnforcementAdministration [DEA] and the Food and Drug Administration [FDA.] You all knowabout the DEA and its vast army of snoops and informers -- a vision to gladdenthe heart of Pobedonostsev himself. The FDA operates similarly but with lesspublicity; it was described in these terms by Saul Kent of the Life ExtensionFoundation: "The FDA's strong-arm tactics are used to intimidate and terrorizeAmericans into toeing their police-state line on health care and medicine."In 1957, the FDA burned all the books of dissident physician Wilhelm Reich,M.D., smashed his laboratory equipment with axes, and threw him in jail, wherehe died.Lately, their major targets have been midwives, herbalists and others who

    offer safer and cheaper health care than the TSOG itself.Although our first official and open Tsar was appointed during the brief,bloody reign of George Bush, the Tsar's powers only reached tyrannical statusunder Bill Clinton, a hillbilly with a perpetual hard-on.Our recent Tsar, General Barry McCaffrey, recently stated the theology ofMystic Tsarism in an article for the Denver Post. I condense a bit because,like most Tsars, Mac the Knife is a bit of a windbag:"Each week, millions of Americans attend religious services to seekguidance, reaffirm moral values, offer charity and obtain a sense ofcommunity. Each of these four elements underscores the importance offaith-based organizations .... Educating young people ... requires us to

    orders came from the Vatican.Our current Tsar's war crimes are documented in "OverwhelmingForce," by Seymour Hersh, The New Yorker, 22 May 2000.The best depth analysis of Mystical Tsarism remains The MassPsychology of Fascism, by Wilhelm Reich, M.D. Farrar, Strauss andGiroux, New York, 1970. Although Dr Reich doesn't analyze Tsarismin particular, he relates Fascism to the dogmatic religions, faithin "leaders" ["little Fathers"]and sexual misery of all the

    "Patriarchal Authoritarian" regimes throughout history, and hismajor bio-psychological theorems describe both Russian andAmerican Tsarism as neatly as they fit the Holy Inquisition orGerman-Italian Fascism.Or -- you can find most of this data, in one form or another bysimply surfing the web. Set your search engine for "RheinholdGehlen," "Cisalpine Bank,""Licio Gelli," "Gladio" and all theother individual and group names in this synopsis, and you'll beastounded at how many Dirty Secrets are now open to the light ofday.
