Udo Ulfkotte Blows the Whistle on Himself
Dr Ulfkotte’s betrayal of his establishment ties is also an act of loyalty to humanity itself.
“Yes Little Tim, There Are Unexpected Folks Who Are With The CIA.”
[D]r. Udo Ulfkotte (picture left), a respected German journalist, editor, and a former advisor to the Kohl administration in Germany in the later 1990s, has written a new book (published in German, but translated) “Bought Journalism. How Politicians, Intelligence and High Finance Control German’s Mass Media.” (Kopp, Rottenburg am Neckar 2014). He was interviewed on RT’s “Question More” program regarding his assertions that he worked for the CIA, and the German intelligence agency BNB.
Dr. Ulfkotte, is no lightweight. According to his wikipedia listing, he has had a long term association with the Christian Right in Germany. He now publishes a magazine called “Whistleblower” that sounds similar in intent to “Project Censored” here in the US. His personal web page, or at least one of them may be found here.
Below is the video of his interview with RT. For whatever reason, the questions he is being asked are not audible. I have created a transcript of the interview – also included below. Forgive any mistakes. I tried to be true to what Dr. Udo Ulfkotte was saying. Unfortunately, there were some parts that I could not hear clearly.
He refers various times to “non-official covers.” If in CIA parlance, such people are referred to as NOCs. NOCs may also be the made up covers of actual CIA assets. For example, Valerie Plame (also the wife of Ambassador Joseph Wilson) was operating as a NOC in Iran when “outed” by Dick Cheney and the Bush administration, after Wilson had criticized the administration for their involvement in Iraq.

Well I’ve been a journalist for about 25 years. And I was educated to lie, to betray, and not to tell the truth to the public. But seeing right now within the last months how, how far um, how the German and American media try to bring war to the people in Europe, to bring war to Russia, this is a point of no return, and I stand, I’m going to stand up and say um “It is not right what I have done in the past.” Ah, to manipulate people to make propaganda against Russia. And it is not right what my colleagues do, and have done in the past, because they are bribed to betray the people – not only in Germany but all over Europe.
“I was educated to lie, to betray, and not to tell the truth to the public.”
Frankfurter Allgemeine, and there was one small article, not writing how impressive brutally, how unhuman, how terrible it was, to kill half, to kill (???) after the end of the second world war, to kill people with German mustard gas. So this was a situation I feel misused for having been there just to give a documentary of what had been done, but not been allowed to cry out to the world what we have done behind closed doors. Up till today it’s not well known in the public that with German mustard gas there have been hundreds of thousands of people gassed in this city of Zabeda (Halabja?) .
And your question was, “Is this only the case with German journalists?” No. I think it is especially the case with British journalists, because they have a much closer relationship. It is especially the case with Israelis, of course with French journalists for a partner not as big as German uh, uh with with British journalists. It is the case for Australians journalists; for journalists from New Zealand; from Taiwan; from well …there are many countries. Countries from the Arab world, like Jordan for example. like Oman – the sultanate of Oman. There are many countries where this happens, but you find people to play, they are respected journalists, but you find behind them they are puppets on a string of the Central Intelligence Agency.
