The Crowley Files

January 1, 2017

by Harry von Johnston, PhD

Before he died in 2000, Robert T. Crowley, once a very high-ranking CIA officer in charge of Clandestine Operations, gave a significant number of his personal files to an author of intelligence subjects. When a CIA-connected other author learned of this, he went ballistic as they say, and from that day on, has screamed that the author never received anything at all and that he, and he alone, was able to “rescue” the files from Crowley’s widow. It has been reliably reported that the furious one not only runs a typical CIA DC-based  “institute” but has also been accused of owning very valuable art works stolen by the Germans during the war and later “rescued” by the CIA and sold with the money going into their pockets. Here is a very small sampling of what can be called the Crowley Files. Reading through them gives an entirely different picture of the CIA and its operations than their paid publicists try to shove off on a trusting public:
