Digging per previous request at 11:21 PM EDT. Apologies for the delay.

Am pointedly ignoring the shilling and subjectives in the Operation Charlemagne story; the more digging one does, the more one realizes they’re just not the point.

Here’s my assessment: somebody threw a brick through the window. Sure, the window’s busted, but there’s a message wrapped around the brick. It’d be illogical to ignore the message.

Also recognizing the possibility the story has "broken" at the same time as HAMR as a distraction.

If there are several situations occurring, they all need to be looked at.

Priestap's (FBI) name appears in the story repeatedly.

We know Priestap is cooperating, and would definitely have been in a position to know exactly what was going on.

The heads of Italian intelligence actually WERE fired. We've been told Italy is cooperating. 1+1=2, so were those agency heads all in on the coup plot? Appears almost certain.

Going to dig on Giovanni De Gennaro, because I think he may just be playing the role of the Godfather.

It looks like Giulio Occhionero and his sister Francesca were the patsies in this scheme. It had to be pinned on somebody, and they were just plausible enough to play the parts. Gennaro was already an experienced boss, and had to answer not just to the Leonardo shareholders, but the cabal. IMHO, Occhionero is lucky to be alive.

Back to the controversial post:

Occhionero is saying that Comey’s CHS (Confidential Human Source) is none other than Gianni (Giovanni) De Gennaro, the former chief of state police, and the current chairman of Leonardo – the ninth largest defense contractor in the world. Recall what Occhinero just said about him:

And of course the #1 boogeyman of Italian darkness: Gianni De Gennaro, engineer of the whole plot and the one serving connection to FBI and US authorities (check his conferences at CSA)

Gennaro’s corporate connections require a quick departure, because his company is his door to the world.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonardo_S.p.A.

Of note: The company is 30.2% owned by the Italian government, through the Ministry of Economy and Finance.

Leonardo basics:

About 46,000 employees, 180 locations worldwide, 2018 revenue 12 billion Euro +/-

Of note: Leonardo's previous company name was Finmeccanica, and it has been through some stomach-churning changes in the last 10 years. And check this out: De Gennaro had a big axe to grind with Wikileaks. Leonardo also changed its name recently, and the reason a company its size changes its name is because it needs to reinvent its brand. This is a red-flag happening. Nobody changes their name if things are going well.

"During 2011–2013, Finmeccanica emails were published by WikiLeaks and Finmeccanica was subject to judicial inquiries on several fronts and management changes.

According to Finmeccanica emails published in the Syria Files release by WikiLeaks on 5 July 2012, Finmeccanica increased its sale of mobile communications equipment to Syrian authorities during 2011, delivering 500 of these to the Damascus suburb Muadamia in May 2011, after the Syrian uprising had started, and sending engineers to Damascus in February 2012 to provide training in using the communications equipment in helicopter terminals, while the uprising continued. Finmeccanica stated that the equipment sales were legal, they occurred "before the outbreak of conflict inside Syria", and the equipment "was designed for use by emergency responders" for civilian use only.

So Finmeccanica was actively supplying mobile tech to activists who were churning up the unrest in Syria. They destabilized an entire damn country by delivering cellphone tech to the local rabble-rousers, giving them a ridiculous advantage. The effect would have been like giving the Confederate Army AK-47s. (hat tip to Harry Turtledove’s “Guns of the South”)

There were still more white-knuckle happenings at the company in the midst of its Syrian interference. Finmeccanica’s CEO was arrested for corruption for dirty business with India, and in July 2013, the government appointed former police chief Giovanni De Gennaro as Chairman of Finmeccanica. In December 2013 Finmeccanica sold 39.55% of its share capital in Ansaldo Energia to Fondo Strategico Italiano (translated: our money situation is terrible, and we gotta sell some stuff to raise cash fast). A company rebranding operation led by Mauro Moretti began in March 2016, with a proposal to change the company name. From 1 January 2017 Finmeccanica officially became Leonardo, a name inspired by the Italian savant Leonardo da Vinci. It’s enough to make a business analyst swoon.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giovanni_De_Gennaro_(police_officer)

De Gennaro has plenty of skeletons in his closet:

"In 1994 he was appointed as Prefect and on 26 May 2000 as Chief of the Italian Police Department - Director General for Public Security. He is in charge of the Italian Police during the 2001 G8 summit in Genoa, including the raid on the Diaz school. For such deeds, Italy will later be condemned by the European Court of Human Rights in 2015 and 2017 for not having prevented and punished acts of torture by state agents. De Gennaro was prosecuted, condemned and later cleared by Cassation for inducing false testimonies."

You’re reading this correctly: The ninth largest defense contractor in the world chose a prosecuted and criticized possibly-dirty-cop as its CEO. That’s a big deal, but hang on. There was something unique about that 2001 “Globalism 8” summit.

"The 27th G8 summit was held in Genoa, Italy, on July 21–22, 2001 and is remembered as the peak of the worldwide antiglobalization movement as well as for human rights crimes against demonstrators."

remembered as the peak of the worldwide antiglobalization movement

Check the sections titled Protests, Injuries and Deaths, and Charges

Bio of Gennaro from Leonardo's web site:

https://www.leonardocompany.com/chairman

Blah blah blah, then: “In 2008 he was appointed Director General of the Department of Security Information (DIS), with the additional task of implementing, the regulatory and organizational aspects of, the complex reform of the information services commissioned by Parliament in 2007. In 2012, the Council of Ministers appointed him Undersecretary of State to the Prime Minister's Office, responsible for the information and security services. On behalf of the Government, he took part in the approval process, voted unanimously by Parliament, for further partial regulatory reform of the law on information services, with particular reference to the delicate matter of State secrets.” So Gennaro gets to rearrange all the furniture in Italy’s entire intelligence house, and as a bonus, he gets to change the laws about everything to do with the furniture.

“In 2014 he has been appointed Chairman of the Center for American Studies.”

Side dig complete: Gennaro as the Chairman of the Center for American Studies (in Rome) pops up in the PODESTA EMAILS.

There's a ton of crumbs on Gennaro; he's an old guy and he's cut a wide swath in his life. There's enough for a book.

Back to De Gennaro. He received the FBI's Medal of Meritorious Achievement, presented by Robert Mueller. AND he was the first recipient who was NOT from the USA! Why???

WHOA. See page 18:

http://docshare01.docshare.tips/files/21/211666.pdf

This was in 2006, while GWB was still in office, two years before Obama took office. He must have been a CHS for the FBI for years and years to rate an honor like that. Comey was panicking about it a couple days ago; no wonder. De Gennaro is about as connected as it's possible to be in Italy.

The rabbit hole keeps getting deeper, and leads to surveillance of potential terrorists.

http://www.opensource.im/wikileaks/us-italy-had-aggressively-monitored-muslims-in-italy-wikileaks-cables-say-report.php

"Italy’s Muslim population has been reportedly aggressively monitored, WikiLeaks cables dated from 2005 reveal. The documents were classified by then-U.S. Ambassador to Italy Ronald Spogli. The documents were based on a private informal lunch at the U.S. ambassadors residence and also involved the then-Italian Interior Minister Giuseppe Pisanu and Italy’s Chief of Police Giovanni De Gennaro.

According to the documents, in the years before 2005, about 200 Muslims were expelled from Italy on suspicion of extremism, Sputnik News reported. Pisanu was reportedly quoted in the document as saying that Italy’s Muslim community was different from that in France and other European countries because they were much smaller, more diffuse and mostly economic migrants in the former.

“Muslims comprise approximately two percent of the [Italian] population. The majority are moderates; only five percent of Muslims in Italy attend mosque; and many are itinerant workers. The Italian Government closely monitors this community and expels those who preach violence,” according to the cable dated Sept. 26, 2005.

The government was, however, concerned about at least three percent of Muslims, whom it deemed “prone to extremism,” according to WikiLeaks cables.

Still, there will always be some prone to extremism, but the minister estimated these counted for no more than three percent of the community in Italy. The [Muslim] advisory council was designed to reach out to the other 97 percent. The three percent were aggressively monitored mosques, schools, bakeries, butcher shops, meeting places,” according to a document from Dec. 7, 2005, Sputnik News reported.

“This meant that perhaps 2,000 had been identified and put under watch.”

The report comes at a time when Islamophobia in Europe is on the rise, following deadly attacks in Paris that killed 17 people.

The U.S. had also been conducting a “Muslim Outreach” program in Italy led by Milan’s Consulate General. The mission of the program was utilizing a combination of our U.S. Speakers and Exchange programs together with Embassy resources to promote our agenda,” a 2007 cable read, according to Sputnik News.

The U.S. has also been reportedly conducting such programs across other European countries.

The two overarching goals of U.S. engagement with Europe’s Muslims: countering the widespread conviction that the U.S. is somehow at war with Islam, and initiating a constructive dialogue about Muslim integration in European societies aimed at sharing America’s best practices with regard to providing equal opportunity to disadvantaged, racially distinct minorities,” a 2007 document quoted Farah Pandith, U.S. senior advisor to the assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs, as saying, Sputnik News reported."

I don’t want to dig any further than this, because better and more experienced heads have no doubt already done so. Have been kicking this around in my head, and arrived at some obvious conclusions that I just don’t want to type here. I don't know how this can possibly end without some wheat getting thrown out with the chaff, but considering everything, it's to be expected.

Q, you guys have your hands FULL with this juggernaut.

Important to remember to pray for ALL white-hat U.S. citizens who’ve been working in “interesting” positions worldwide, in and out of uniform. Come home safe, and soon.

Same here, buddy.

Been up digging that De Gennaro stuff for the last three hours.

TL;DR because it was long as hell - I think we got ourselves our Godfather for "Godfather III".

Oh man, didn't the Charlemagne blog post include something about Joseph Mifsud not even being his real name? That he's not from Malta?

Ugh, can't find it. Too many tabs open.

I hadn't heard this before – Devin Nunes says in his letter to Trump that Joseph Mifsud may also go by the name Joseph di Gabriele. (link: https://dailycaller.com/2019/05/22/nunes-trump-theresa-may-steele/) dailycaller.com/2019/05/22/nun…
