36-CIA/Nazi/Chile Condor & CIA/NYPD vs. Rappers, Activist Black & Latino Gangs

As detailed earlier, the CIA also collaborated with special units in New York City. Researchers cited memoirs of officers in the New York Police Department’s Bureau of Special Services showing that they did CIA work, amongst other sources supporting this.836 Another possible example of CIA collaboration with the NYPD started by the end of the ’90s. News groups revealed that Republican Mayor Rudolph “Rudy” Giuliani began a hugely expensive NYPD program called “Operation Condor.” In 2000, New York’s murder rate, which had been decreasing (along with virtually all major cities nationwide), increased about 13%. This increase happened after Condor began, and it occurred just after Condor added $100 million to overtime undercover police work over the course of the year.837

In the ’70s, the CIA had titled their murderous work with brutal Latin American dictators “Operation Condor.” The New York Times revealed in one 2006 article that when “Salvador Allende, the first Socialist to govern Chile and also a physician, was elected in 1970, the United States conspired with the military to overthrow him. That resulted in the 1973 coup that brought Gen. Augusto Pinochet to power.”838 In another article, The New York Times partially revealed Operation Condor’s history of political assassinations of Latin American leftists and even U.S. citizens working with them. The Times said that through Condor, Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet dispatched “death squads to kill critics at home and overseas.” Condor murder victims “included Latin American government officials ousted in United States-supported military coups, trade unionists, rights advocates and suspected socialists.”

The Times further reported that these murders took place around the world as part of Operation Condor. Condor murders even included the car bombing of an American who was with a Chilean leftist in Washington, D.C. Also according to The New York Times, U.S. Intelligence aided these murders, using an American communications installation to share intelligence. The FBI helped Condor’s efforts “by investigating South American leftists who were arrested, and in at least one case, tortured.” 839

The New York Times article quoted Professor J. Patrice McSherry, who published her own more extensive findings about Operation Condor. McSherry’s Condor findings, based on CIA documents, concurred with University of Pennsylavania-Wharton Professor Edward Herman who wrote a related book. Both authors found that the CIA admitted paying Chile’s Directorate of National Intelligence (DINA), Manuel Contreras, as well as American DINA assassin Michael Townley. Townley later admitted to committing several of his highly publicized murders.840 In one book written with Professor Noam Chomsky, Herman showed how the U.S. financed and trained right-wing military forces who led the 1973 coup against Chile’s democratically elected leftist leader Salvador Allende.841 Seven other Latin American countries soon joined in DINA’s Condor operations, including Argentina, Uruguay, Bolivia, Paraguay, Brazil, Peru and Ecuador.842

Another aspect of the Chilean-based Condor involves the Nazi intelligence enclave found there, called Colonia Dignidad. In 2005, The New York Times reported that a post-Pinochet government had arrested and was investigating a World War II Nazi doctor, Paul Schäfer, who founded the enclave in 1961.
