Pacepa on Soviet Exploitation of Islamic Radicalism

Further evidence of the Soviet roots of Islamic terrorism.

Ion Pacepa

From Ion Pacepa, the highest-ranking intelligence official ever to have defected from the former Eastern Bloc of the Soviet Union.

Pacepa was a two-star Romanian Securitate General who simultaneously held the rank of advisor to President Nicolae Ceaucescu, acting chief of his foreign intelligence service and state secretary in Romania’s Ministry of Interior.

In 1972, the Kremlin decided to turn the whole Islamic world against Israel and the U.S. As KGB chairman Yury Andropov told me, a billion adversaries could inflict far greater damage on America than could a few millions. We needed to instill a Nazi-style hatred for the Jews throughout the Islamic world, and to turn this weapon of the emotions into a terrorist bloodbath against Israel and its main supporter, the United States. No one within the American/Zionist sphere of influence should any longer feel safe.


According to Andropov, the Islamic world was a waiting petri dish in which we could nurture a virulent strain of America-hatred, grown from the bacterium of Marxist-Leninist thought. Islamic anti-Semitism ran deep. The Muslims had a taste for nationalism, jingoism, and victimology. Their illiterate, oppressed mobs could be whipped up to a fever pitch.


Terrorism and violence against Israel and her master, American Zionism, would flow naturally from the Muslims’ religious fervor, Andropov sermonized. We had only to keep repeating our themes — that the United States and Israel were “fascist, imperial-Zionist countries” bankrolled by rich Jews. Islam was obsessed with preventing the infidels’ occupation of its territory, and it would be highly receptive to our characterization of the U.S. Congress as a rapacious Zionist body aiming to turn the world into a Jewish fiefdom.

  1. I wish the West would really wake up and realize it was the Soviets that funded, armed, and supported the Muslims to destroy Israel to try and destroy the US.

    They armed Assad, Egypt, supported the PLO, PLF, Muslim Brotherhood, Libya, Idi Amin, Angola, UNITA, armed Saddam Hussein who shot Scuds at Israel, Iran. Syria invaded Lebanon and gave SAMs to shoot at Israel in the First Lebanon War.

    The Soviets gave Assad and Nasser/Sadat Mig-29s, T-55s, T-72s which didnt do a damn good against Israel but still. Same with Iraq which were destroyed by the Americans, British, and Allies.

    Finally the final nail in the coffin is the Soviets introduced that racist which proved the anti-Semtism of Russia with the UN Resolution declaring Zionism as racism. We need another Chaim Herzog to tear that paper up and Daniel Patrick Monyihan to say that America will not follow by this treaty or stand by this resolution.

  2. So much of the evidence points to the radical left's involvement in the "revolution" in Egypt that it's difficult to dismiss.

    But aside from all the heavy stuff, there's this little bit of additional "proof" — I finally saw the "drums". You know, the drums that make their appearance at virtually every leftist protest. There they were — right in the middle of a CNN video segment of the teaming crowds.

    Well, that settles it for me! 🙂

  3. The common thread to follow in uncovering the East's plot deceive and destroy Western Civilization is antisemitism.

    IMHO, this literally is the rise of the Antichrist on the world stage.

    Unless this world recognizes the truth and goes against the Evil One fashioning our demise, there will be no hope for the 'free world'.

    Bible prophecy is not some meaningless fable. This is literally the final battle between good and evil.

    Are you up to the fight?
