There's a rather animated discussion over at SubStack, with this my latest response to Kent Klizbe:







Hi Kent,

To publish ten books in my second language while being invited to teach at half a dozen universities, including UPenn and University of Leipzig, is hardly "pissing your life away," as you so kindly put it.

Plus, you're living up to the stereotype of the CIA man as rigid, righteous and rather humorless, with a nasty streak.

Since you wrote a book about PC culture, I'm sure you've heard about people being canceled?

Speaking of canceling, how many thousands of people has the CIA erased? Is that your American dream?

Seems like the unspoken argument there is that Kent thinks the Russians are responsible for American self hatred. So I guess he would wonder why you don't talk more about the decay in "communist" Viet Nam. But the founding ideas which led to "critical race theory" and all the rest of it are, of course, not Russian. They were imported here by a group of German Jewish intellectuals from the so-called "Frankfurt school". If I remember right, one of these guys (Adorno?) even stated publicly that American culture must first be destroyed in order to bring about their utopia.

Like many angry white pussies, Klizbe can't say "Jews."

Vietnam is much freer of Jewish thinking than the USA, thus much saner. No one here is confused about what is a woman, and no one thinks children should be self mutilating themselves. No Vietnamese thinks the army should have cross dressing soldiers.

Most importantly, Vietnamese are not apologetic about being nationalists.

yes, it's his choice, I guess.

Klizbe had a career with the most sinister outfit in a criminal government steered by Jews, so that's telling. His disdain for low end taverns also betrays his contempt for poorer Americans. For all of his supposed patriotism, he sneers at a huge swath of America.

Bio at his website:

Kent served as a staff CIA case officer in the 1990s, and as a contractor after 9/11. He has worked in various capacities in intelligence positions in Southeast Asia, Africa, Europe and the Middle East. His specialty is Counter-terrorism and Islamic Extremism.

Kent has also worked Counter-intelligence, Counter-proliferation, Counter-narcotics, and other targets. In addition to extensive liaison work with foreign intel services, he has worked in the US Intel Community in inter-agency, inter-governmental intelligence operations since 9/11. He was awarded the Intelligence Community Seal Medallion, the highest civilian intelligence agency decoration for contractors, for his counter-terrorist operations in the Philippines, Indonesia and Malaysia. His work in the Philippines was described in an article by Mark Bowden in the Atlantic Monthly in March 2007, “Jihadists in Paradise.”

In the US Air Force, Kent was a Vietnamese linguist, completing language training at DLI in Monterey, CA. He served for three years at Clark AB in the Philippines.

Kent’s educational background includes a BA in Southeast Asian Studies-Linguistics from SUNYExcelsiorCollege and an MA in Linguistics and Business from OhioUniversity, as well as graduate studies in Instructional Design at Southern Illinois University, Carbondale. He has more or less linguistic expertise in Vietnamese, Italian, Malay/Indonesian, Spanish, and Arabic. He is a member of the International Association for Intelligence Education; the Society of Competitive Intelligence Professionals, and the Association for Intelligence Officers.

With a career that has spanned the globe, in multiple roles and operations, Kent has many stories to tell.

"Kent served as a staff CIA case officer in the 1990s, and as a contractor after 9/11."

He's still with the CIA, in short. As a loyal soldier of the firm, he's not going to probe 9/11 nor mutter anything about Jews, for that would make him a rogue agent.

Makes me wonder what he's doing commenting on Unz or on your sites.

Linh Dinh said...

Since Unz has proven to be useless as a dissident website, its two main functions are to misdirect fools and harvesting their identities. Since Kent is openly CIA, I don't think he's a part of that, however. His function is to lead fools into thinking the CIA is actually quite "transparent," with "independent thinkers."
