23) The CIA Assassinates A LOT Of People (Church Committee)
Have you heard of the term the ‘Church Committee’? It refers to the United States Senate Select Committee to Study Governmental Operations with Respect to Intelligence Activities, a U.S. Senate committee chaired by Senator Frank Church in 1975. Before the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence was founded, the Church Committee investigated intelligence gathering for illegality by the CIA and FBI after certain activities had been revealed by the Watergate affair.
Many things were discovered, such as that the CIA had violated its charter to perform only gathering of intelligence. The assassinations of Allende in Chile and Mossadegh in Iran are but a few examples. The list was tremendous. Reportedly, they even declassified a “Heart Attack Gun” the Agency had made for the use of killing someone without it being detected. Cancer, car accidents, skiing accidents, suicide, boating accidents, heart attacks, and just plain being shot were common assassination methods.
The hearings are still rarely taught in American schools, despite the fact that they were recorded in full in congressional record. The mainstream media largely ignores this recent history, as well. Most people have NO idea this was ever confirmed or actually took place.
