"Plausible Deniability"

A CIA Escape Hatch

According to Douglas Valentine, author of three revealing books on the CIA based on his rare access to the agency's officials, the CIA does not launch any clandestine operation such as engineering a bloody regime change without creating and being able to show "plausible deniability" of their actions.

The public is then spoon fed this fiction via the corporatized news media.

In Closing

Do not believe the plausible denials of America's corpocracy! And challenge them if you dare.
