CIA’s Shadow Wars: From Paperclip to Present
Published: Sep 23, 2025 06:20
After World War II, the United States did not purge fascism — it recycled it. Operation Paperclip imported Nazi scientists, not to put them on trial, but to put them on payroll. Their knowledge in rocketry and human experimentation became the seeds of both NASA and the CIA’s darkest programs.
From there, the pattern never changed. The CIA funded right-wing death squads in Latin America, trained extremists in Afghanistan, armed dictators across Africa, and supported coups wherever a nation resisted U.S. control. Every operation sold as 'defending democracy' was, in truth, dismantling it.
Today the legacy is visible. Far-right groups in Europe and America rise while the CIA quietly filters weapons and money into proxy wars. Ukraine, Syria, Latin America — the map changes but the method does not. The agency does not fight for freedom. It fights for destabilization. For war. For empire.
Truthloop names the pattern clearly: the CIA is not a defense agency, it is a war machine in the shadows — born from fascism, living off chaos, and loyal only to American power.
