Like Hanssen himself said...the FBI took too long to catch him. Yet finally he's in his right place..👍👍👍

[@marciawade8813]

His father's standing got him entry into the old boys network. There were many tells: He & his wife bragged about their elite expensive style of living that exceeded their income: Elite expensive housing, New, expensive cars, inveterate gambling losses & women; he failed his annual polygraph test several years running but they just laughed it off... His reach out for money was watched by the soviets because his need for money coincided w/ his gambling losses & increased luxuries... They would be ready for him & could bargain him down in relation to his hardship needs for money... to cover losses, etc...

[@brucebean2805]

When the documentary reached the part of the two men, both being Catholic and Hanson, 31:22 was a member of Opus Die (the religious order)it became clear how this man could live the way he did. I do remember when the story of his take down made big news. Very good documentary. 🎉🎉

[@EnochianServant]

Except for blaming sept ll on sum rogue agent

[@Reince-b9g]

⁠@@EnochianServantthat part was the point that Bin Laden would not have known the extent to which his movements were being tracking and to which he was being surveilled pre-9/11 if it weren’t for Hanssen disclosing that Program. You’re right its a bit of blaming because maybe that didnt factor into whether 9/11 would actually be carried out or not. But its of course possible that it set the resolve in Bin Laden also to plan and carry out his part; that he felt to a great extent a very hunted man on borrowed time anyway. Of course its very strange that he LIVED for many years as the worlds most hunted man. That’s quite strange. But Hanssen was obviously a total creep and asshole of a man as it came to bottom line matters of extreme betrayal of country, brothers, family.

[@garethtaylor1470]

I find it hard to weigh up Bob Hansens treachery. On one hand you have a guy who the investigators said his motivation was for 30,000 a year and also boredom in his life and routine and my first thought was could they not have tried to flip him into a double agent given that Russia would trust him whole heartedly given his 30 years of treachery and the sheer scale of the information and intelligence he provided to them. I guess it would be almost impossible to trust him on any level especially as he had already shown how he could and would betray even his family and so they would not have any hold over him to guard against him getting to Russia and revealing the whole truth and betraying the U.S again! I’m just wondering if such an idea was maybe discussed or offered by Hansen knowing full well tha staying in the U.S would mean the rest of his life in solitary confinement in prison. The sheer death toll that Bob Hansen was responsible for is unknown but almost certainly runs into thousands upon thousands of innocent people who were murdered and many tortured. 9/11 was over 3,000 people alone and when you then factor in 30 years of military operations that were sabotaged and U.S military personnel and soldiers including special forces, marines, seals, as well as many others were simply blind sided or walked straight into a trap and not only did the missions fail but many of the soldiers were killed like sitting ducks. Add on to this all the other U.S agents from the FBI, CIA and intelligence services and joint intelligence operations that went terribly wrong and many many were captured by Russia,interrogated, tortured and executed and all this from just one man over a period of 30 years! The number will be frightening.

[@Bulletguy07]

@@rozaliamajores4798 Its worth remembering espionage works both ways. Countries use counterespionage to great effect. Of course its a highly dangerous operation, for the spy, but reaps huge benefits for a countries intelligence. In my country (UK) we have used a number of them who we have "turned". Search KZbin for Oleg Gordievsky who had to make a frantic last minute escape from Russia. His story is pretty chilling.

[@SoniaBooqua]

I find this case to be a very sad one actually. I do not understand why somebody would betray their homeland and place colleagues in danger of losing their lives by providing names. But worst of all, is the betrayal to your mother country for $30,000.00 a year! What is worth it? Hansen ended up dying in prison when he could have retired as an honest citizen.

[@tkm238-d4r]

It might not be a lot of $$$ but his probable reasoning was that the extra $$$ could be useful.🙄 Perhaps some James Bond movie lines spoken by pro-Soviet/Pro-communist characters were right. Sometimes, the West could be weak and decadent. 😐 Hanssen's case might indirectly explain why the establishment was sometimes not highly interested in what several months later became 9/11. AQ was a danger as shown in the USS Cole incident but the intelligence thinking was largely centered on the so-called strategic competitors. AQ was not in this category. So Hanssen, similar to Aldrich Ames, was caught partly because he spied for Moscow and the intelligence establishment never really shifted its focus away from Moscow. Meanwhile, AQ and similar sympathizers established a support network inside the US and was sort of noticed but not considered a really big concern. Even after 9/11, after the toppling of the Taliban, focus was quickly shifted to Iraq because the Saddam regime was viewed as a strategic competitor.

It begins easier to understand once you realize the CIA (and to the lesser extent certain parts of the FBI) can't employ normies / ethical folks. How can a normal person supervise MK-Ultra, conduct operation Re~dsox (take out the tilde) or hide n@zis and Japanese torture teams from prosecution? Point being, some of them turned on their peers and their country, but the reason they hadn't been caught much sooner despite signs quite obvious to normal folks is because they in fact didn't stand out that much from their peers.

The darkest day in the history of the USA was in 1944 when Harry S. Truman in place of Henry A. Wallace was nominated to be the VP running mate of FDR rather than Wallace. None of the evils that followed WW2 would have occurred if Wallace had succeeded FDR. The Dulles brothers would not have been allowed to work their wickedness. We would still have had a CIA, but Wallace would have not gone along with its being more than an intelligence gathering and analyzing agency. There's a strong possiblity that Wallace would have ended the war with Japan without incinerating two Japanese cities to impress Stalin. He might even have listened to the scientists who tried to stop the bomb's development but were not allowed to reach Truman by Byrnes. There might have been no NATO and no Warsaw Pact. Churchill's "Iron Curtain" speech in Fulton, Mo. would not have been motivated by a Soviet occupied, Eastern Europe. The NAZI scientists would not have been secretly pardoned and brought to the US. Maybe some of these things would not have been entirely prevented, but they would have been mitigated. Much of the war mongering of the US after WW2 would have been avoided, and peace would have had a better chance.

Kinda of ironica that an agaency which teaches its employess to be professionals at the art of minuplating their target to perform an act of betrayal and rewards all parties involves in said betrayal is blindsided hurt and and compelled to take extreme punitive action against one of their own commiting the very same act for which he repetitively witnessed individuals being currupted protected and rewarded and then on top of that the gov expands more resources investigating and scrutinizing the action that oed the individual to commit an act of betrayel while over looking the most important and crucial detail, which is the individuals core beliefs and philosophical upbringing inherently clash with his field of career and expertize thereby forcing the individual to be in an environment where he must repetitively currupt and betray himself first before any other action. What's insane isnt this conflicted individuals actions of betrayal. The real Insanity is the expectation that an individual with such burden will be loyal with the threat of extreme punitive action if otherwise. Imagine teaching your wife to be an expert at corrupting your neighbors wife to commit and act of betrayal that is not only rewarded but protected and then are blindsided and flabbergasted when i find that your wife has betrayed you with the neighbor but instead of rewarding her you take extreme punitive action against your wife and completely believe your in the right is normal. Any normal person with a cognitive and working brain would consider you insane and what you got was mercy for subjecting and injecting an individual in an environment that forces the individual to repetitively make and normalize choices that inherently conflict with their core values indentity and upbringing. Ironic that we as humans separate ourselves from animals and consider ourselves civilized while at the same time setting up steriod like institutions or agencies that teach efficiently en mass actions that we would consider an individual commiting and executing the very same actions an animal for doing so.
