David Niles

No. 334, Moscow Center to Mexico City, 20 May 1944. However, for context see especially the previously released message, New York KGB to Moscow, No. 786, 1 June 1944, that mentions that friends of David Niles (a White House staffer) "will arrange anything for a bribe," i.e., get the transit visas for the Fishers.

===Abraham George Silverman=== In 1942 Silverman became civilian chief of analysis and plans to the assistant chief of the Army Air Force Air Staff for Material and Service.

Lauchlin informed Silverman orally 'on various matters' including the possibility that the government was about to break the Soviet code. Harry Dexter White had gave government documents to Silverman. Both men had helped Greg Silvermaster and other Soviet spies obtain or keep government jobs and had used their positions to influence U.S. policies in ways helpful to the Soviet Union.

Certainly Georege Silverman and Silvermaster were able to learn much about U.S. policies and about Currie's and White's own views through their friendship with them. Both at least occasionally obtained copies of government documents, probably from both Currie and White. Currie seems to have been involved in carrying out orders from Roosevelt to get U.S. intelligence services to return Soviet cryptographic documents to the Soviet Union and to cease decoding operations, and he seems to have spoken of it to colleagues, including William Yandell Elliott. Both Currie and White helped Silvermaster keep his job on more than one occasion in 1942 and 1943 when he was attacked for being a communist, though it is reasonable to suppose that they did so because they believed him innocent of any wrongdoing-even if he was sympathetic to leftist and communist causes. (The main reason Silvermaster had come under suspicion was his active involvement in the labor movement in California in the 1930s, in which he associated with leading members of the CPUSA.) And the Soviet Union no doubt found much to like in some of the policy positions taken by Currie and White, even if those positions were taken in order to further U.S. interests. Nothing in this story provides credible evidence of espionage or of an effort to undermine U.S. interests.


Aileron occured in the Venona traffic and was identified as Abraham George Silverman. The “D.” first initial given here may be an error or perhaps based on Silverman generally being known as “George Silverman.” The first letter of the name “George” is rendered in Russian by a Cyrillic letter that is usually Latinized as “Dzh.”

Aileron as a cover name was an obvious reference to Silverman’s Air Force position.

As is the case for the second list in the appendix it concerns also with this an official list, which was published on 1 August 1939 and on realizations FBI as well as other intelligence services been based. The second list was presented 1948 and supplemented until always 1953 again. All communist groups, which emerge both in the pre-war and the post-war list, are marked by one "". In the meantime some trade unions communists had excluded other openly communist groups from their membership lists, were dissolved, partially also by government resolution. Although Roosevelt had forbidden hearing messages between the Soviet Union and America and/or Canada, the secret services did not adhere to it. The fact that someone was a member at a federation, a committee or a Soviet group of supports, did not mean still for a long time that this person was an active communist or a feeler gauge. Thousands ofpeople with an inclination for liberal thinking became members, without being or the ideas of communism support thereby communists. The variety of these groups shows however completely clearly that Moscow infinitely set up many traps for the harmless ones and the sympathizers, in order to then recruit from this humans their feeler gauges. These even one said that they give up the kompromi tierende membership and into the underground should go, what even mean could the fact that they become members of conservative groups and openly had to criticize their former friends.

Discipline Inspection Commission

The Discipline Inspection Commission of the Central Military Commission (CMC) held a plenary meeting on September 26 to study and discuss the spirit of the 4th Plenum of the 16th Party Central Committee and the Enlarged Meeting of the Central Military Commission and the 4th Plenary Session of the Central Discipline Inspection Commission, and study ways to implement them.

The meeting emphasized that discipline inspection commissions at all levels of the army must take the study and implementation of the spirit of the 4th Plenum of the 16th Central Committee of the Party and the Enlarged Meeting of the Central Military Commission as an important political task and grasp it firmly and do it successfully so as to give full play to their functionary role and provide powerful political, ideological, disciplinary and working-style guarantee. We must earnestly implement Chairman Hu Jintao's important instruction given at the Enlarged Meeting of the Central Military Commission on enhancing the capabilities of Party organizations at various levels of the army, further strengthen the building of discipline inspection commissions at various levels, constantly enhance their discipline inspection capability by centering on the central task of the army, enhance the capability to effectively　supervise high- and medium-level cadres, improve the capability of fostering inner-Party democracy and protecting the Party member's rights, enhance the capability of enforcing discipline and handling cases according to law, foster the capability to assist the Party committees to improve the Party's style of work, organize and coordinate the fight against corruption, and do a better job of fighting against corruption and improving the Party's style of work in the army, so as to make new contributions to the army building in an all-round way.


5. Discipline inspection organizations of the Party

Discipline inspection organizations of the Party consist of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, local Party commissions for discipline inspection at various levels and the grassroots Party commissions for discipline inspection.

The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection works under the leadership of the Party Central Committee.

The local Party commissions for discipline inspection at various levels and the grassroots Party commissions for discipline inspection work under the dual leadership of the Party committee at the same level and Party commission for discipline inspection at the next higher level.

The term of each Party commission for discipline inspection is the same as that of the Party committee at the same level.

The plenary session of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection elects its standing committee, secretary and deputy secretaries and reports this to the Party Central Committee for approval.

The plenary sessions of local Party commissions for discipline inspection at various levels elect the standing committee and secretary and deputy secretaries, and the results are passed by the Party committee at the same level and reported to the Party committee at the next higher level for approval.

Whether a discipline inspection commission or discipline inspection members for a grassroots Party committee shall be established or put into position is to be decided by a Party organization at the next higher level in light of specific conditions.

A general Party branch committee and a Party branch committee shall include discipline inspection members.

The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection may, if needed, accredit a discipline inspection group or discipline inspectors to central Party and state organs.

Leaders of the discipline inspection group or discipline inspectors may attend, as non-voting members, related conferences organized by Party leaders of the organ concerned.

Their work must be supported by the Party leaders and organizations of the organ concerned.

When George H. Earle, a former US Minister to Bulgaria and to Austria, met with President Roosevelt to inform him of information he had received indicating Soviet responsibility for the massacre, the President responded, "I have noted with concern your plan to publish your unfavourable opinion of one of our allies. . . I not only do not wish it, but I specifically forbid you to publish any information or opinion about an ally that you might have acquired while in office or in the service of the US Navy." Louis Fitz Gibbon added that "Earle was promptly transferred to Samoa."

Ovakimian

'Gaik Badalovich Ovakimian (b. 1898) was of Armenian background and he joined the KGB in 1931 while a graduate student at Moscow's Bauman Higher Technical School and went immediately into foreign intelligence.

Ovakimian was sent to Germany on an assignment emphasizing scientific-technical espionage. In 1932 he returned to the Soviet Unionin for advanced technical training at the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army Military-Chemical Academy. In 1933 Ovakimian was sent to the United States as deputy head of the KGB's scientific-technical intelligence section, operating under the cover of being an engineer for Amtorg.

In 1939 Ovakimian became chief of scientific intelligence in the United States while at the same time began studying for a doctorate in chemistry at a New York University.

In 1941 Ovakimian was arrested during a meeting with an agent who had been turned by the FBI. After the German invasion of the Soviet Union on 22 June 1941, the United States agreed to forgo prosecution and allowed him to return to Moscow.

Ovakimian became deputy chief of the KGB's foreign intelligencein 1943 and attained the rank of major-general. In 1946 Ovakimian left the KGB to engage in full-time scientific work.

Ok, here's the problem. You put stuff on there about Kiko Martinez; what does Chip Berlet have to do with Kiko Martinez? Fred Bauder 20:59, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

You still don't answer the question, what does that have to do with Chip Berlet? He is known to be in the Lawyer's guild, might have been a member of the committee and edited the magazine of the committee, but what is the connection, if any, with Francisco Kiko Martinez. Another matter, so far as I know, Kiko is alive, has never been convicted of a crime and is a member in good standing of the Colorado Bar. Fred Bauder 21:39, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

Exhibit 4

Hi Nobs, yes I read it, but I've no idea what it means. SlimVirgin 06:36, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

Sorry, I'm still not following you. I wrote that the context in which some of your posts were made raised the possibility of malice. But how is that connected to whatever exhibit 4 is? Please don't speak in riddles: either say what you have to say, or don't say anything, please. SlimVirgin 20:37, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

Statement by Nobs01

Hi! Have you been following Statement by Nobs01 at the RfArb, and particularly Exhibit 4? Thanks. nobs 04:59, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

The intent issue; I never set out to trash Cberlet as alleged. Would it help if I demonstrated it. nobs 06:41, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
The point being, Slim, I beleive I've read two posting of yours referring to me as acting with "malice" and I'd like to give you every opportunity to amend that statement. Thank you. nobs 20:19, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
An allegation has been made that nobs has acted in "malice"; nobs stands ready to document (a) nobs has made good faith efforts to resolve disputes since nobs first contact with Cberlet; (b) Cberlet has violated policy provisions for dispute resolution; (c) user:Cberlet has fanned the flames of disputes by editing practices in violation of policy provisions; (d) nobs raising the current issues at Talk:Chip Berlet was only delayed by nobs good faith recusal in August from further editing, "As gesture of good faith in anticipation of collaborative efforts & dispute resolution"; (e) nobs raised the issue (i) substance of Laird Wilcox report (ii) basis for Chip Berlet using Misplaced Pages to smear of Mr. Wilcox's integrity on 20 September ; (f) Cberlet responded by repeating the unsubtantiated smear of Wilcox and delivered personal attack against nobs ; (g) nobs gave second opportunity to substantiate using Misplaced Pages as a platform to deliver personal smear against Wilcox .
I could continue if necessary, but clearly this dispute did not arise over night, and Cberlet has done nothing to mitigate it. And I do not believe yourself, or anyone else, can substantiate the charge that nobs has acted with "mailce". Thank you so much, and let me add I do believe you have an earned reputation for fairness as a Misplaced Pages Administator. nobs 21:14, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

Proposed wording

At Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration#Statement by SlimVirgin could be amended with an addition like this,

Let me amend, where he term "malice" appears with reference to User:Nobs01, delete "malice" and insert "questionable".

Just a suggestion, so it looks less of a personal attack. Thank you. nobs 21:46, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

You've misunderstood the way the term "malice" was being used: I wrote that the context within which you were editing raised the issue of malice in the legal sense. Please read what was actually written rather than adopting your own interpretation. Anyway, I don't want to continue discussing this, so please don't write to me again about it. I wonder whether you realize that you appear to be obsessed by Chip and that this, in part, is where the concern stems from. SlimVirgin 22:07, 18 November 2005 (UTC)
Response: "malice" in the legal sense is precisely how I interpret User:SlimVirgin reference, and my use of the term. nobs 22:11, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

Please stop editing mediation pages

Nobs, please respect the fact that our mediation is suspended due to the arbitration. Please stop editing the mediation pages. Please act in accordance with Misplaced Pages policies and practices.--Cberlet 16:27, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

I've moved the page to a user subpage: User:Nobs01/Workshop. Since the page wasn't heavily utilized during mediation, there shouldn't be too much of a problem. Thanks! Flcelloguy (A note?) 23:21, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

Dubious sources

  • "Smith and Jones are Knights of the Garter. Smith kills his wife. It is inappropriate when writing an article about Jones to include information like this, 'Smith, also a member of the Knights of the Garter, killed his own wife' under the heading "Crimes of Jones." Most uses of guilt by association are more subtle than this"
  • Q. "Is a judgement made only about the specific reference in source material, or to the reliability of the author of such guilt by association tactics, which then would apply to other works by the same source?

  • "One cannot but reflect on the many articles by Chip Berlet “linking and tying” individuals to various right-wing causes based on “someone being quoted alleging a connection...”.
  • "Whatever the nature of the relationship between Chip Berlet and Political Research Associates and Leonard Zeskind and the Center For Democratic Renewal and Guardian, it’s significant that both parties regularly attempt to “link and tie” opposing individuals and groups with the publications they have written for or were favorably reported in. If one uses the standards suggested by their own writings, their “links” with Guardian bear looking into. If, on the other hand, these “links and ties” with the Guardian are tangential and unimportant, then so might be the alleged “links and ties” of their enemies on the right.”

My RfA

Thanks. WikiThanks.
Thanks. WikiThanks.
I would like to express my thanks to all the people who took part in my (failed) RfA voting. I was both surprised and delighted about the amount of support votes and all the kind words! I was also surprised by the amount of people who stated clearly that they do care, be it by voting in for or against my candidacy. That's what Wiki community is about and I'm really pleased to see that it works.
As my RfA voting failed with 71% support, I don't plan to reapply for adminship any more. However, I hope I might still be of some help to the community. Cheers! Halibutt 05:10, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

Nice one

Malaprop

"Recurse yourself" is one of the better malaprops I've heard recently. I'm not quite sure how that would work, but it reminds me of a similarly impossible command which I won't repeat. Or, maybe it's a nice thing, like "say it again" or "amen". Anyway, you can't dissect humor. Cheers, -Willmcw 10:53, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

spies

  1. This again is a great example of Cberlet assigning motives where they do not exist (see WP:AGF). Category:Soviet spies was not created by nobs, and nobs has agreed with Cberlet the name is problamatic from the first issuance of an objection
