Gary Berntsen, one of the most highly decorated intelligence officers in the history of the Central Intelligence Agency, has just published highly explosive allegations of election fraud. In a brief video and a well-organized website, he says that American elections are subject to manipulation by software controlled by Venezuelan and Cuban operatives. Gary Berntsen is part of a small team of people who have spent the last four years investigating the claims of fraud. They are now ready to produce the evidence.
Fox News and Newsmax settled defamation lawsuits brought by Dominion Voting Machines and the Smartmatic software company for making similar allegations. Several high-profile individuals and entities are still fighting lawsuits. Media outlets routinely use the modifiers “false,” “falsely stated,” “without evidence,” “baseless,” and more to describe any discussion of electronic manipulation of votes. That information campaign has been so successful that a mere mention of voting machines brings on an eye-roll, even among conservatives and strong supporters of President Trump.
Others who bring up the issue are attacked savagely in the media and online. Yet nobody is attacking Gary Berntsen. His video has been widely disseminated, his website has gotten millions of hits, but nobody is bombarding either with negative comments or ‘ratio’ attempts. Why not?
Who Is Gary Berntsen, Anyway?
Gary’s CIA career is legendary. He is best known for his book Jawbreaker, about the hunt for Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan. It has been required reading for military, intelligence, and law enforcement officers since it was published nearly twenty years ago. That mission alone made Berntsen a legendary figure.
Before leading the mission in Afghanistan, however, Gary was involved in several other critical intelligence missions for the U.S. government. He led the effort to investigate the bombings of Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia and the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania. He investigated the Iranian bombings of the Israeli embassy in 1992; and AMIA, the Jewish community center in Buenos Aires, in 1994.
Berntsen served 3 times as a CIA station chief and spent two years as head of the CIA Counterterrorism Center’s worldwide Hezbollah Unit. He was a member of a team sent to Afghanistan to hunt down an Al Qaeda terrorist. After the September 11, 2001 attacks, Berntsen was asked to return to Afghanistan to lead the American response to the bombings. He trapped bin Laden in Tora Bora, and disagreed strongly with the decision by CentCom and CIA leadership to allow bin Laden to escape.
Berntsen was given two of the highest awards the intelligence community offers to its officers. He was awarded the Distinguished Intelligence Medal and the Intelligence Star, both extremely rare awards, especially for living officers. “The award citation [for the Intelligence Star] is from the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency and specifically cites actions of ‘extraordinary heroism.’ It is analogous to the Silver Star, the U.S. military award for extraordinary heroism in combat.” The Distinguished Intelligence Medal is even more prestigious, but the CIA reveals little about the award criteria…
