KGB-vetted Propaganda for American TV.(television program based on the Russian security agency planned)(Brief Article)
Television producer Bob Van Ronkel has announced plans to create a program entitled Files from the KGB that will depict the notorious Soviet security and espionage service as "the good guys" of the Cold War era, reported the July 31st Moscow Times. "It will be a lot more positive for Russia and the KGB" than previous depictions, explained Van Ronkel. "It's positive publicity for the FSB."
The FSB is the current incarnation of the Soviet/Russian secret police, which began as the V'Cheka under Feliks Dzherzhinsky in 1917. Van Ronkel's decision to seek official approval from the FSB, and to be provided with an FSB consultant "to double-check script accuracy," illustrate two important facts: His television show would be a propaganda organ for a hostile foreign intelligence service; and, despite the Establishment's insistence that a definitive Russian "break with the past" occurred in 1991, the FSB is the literal continuation of history's most murderous secret police organization.
