Books: Disinformation, by Ion Mihai Pacepa

The Shadow of the Soviet Union 
over the Muslim World





It has been over two decades since the Soviet Union ceased to exist, but evil organizations cast a shadow over the world even when they are long gone. “The evil that men do lives after them,” Mark Anthony said in Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar. History has repeatedly backed up that oratory with facts.

The evil that the men and women of the Communist superpower did lives on after them, not only in the many lives lost to Communist terror and the countless families scarred by being deprived of loved ones, but in the foul vapor of Soviet ideas. 

These ideas can be divided into two categories; 
  • the ideas that have been formally acknowledged 
  • and those ideas that were spread covertly through underhanded means.

(Romanian pronunciation: [iˈon miˈhaj paˈt͡ʃepa]; born 28 October 1928 inBucharest, Romania) is a former two-star general in the Securitate, the secret police ofCommunist Romania, who defected to the United States in July 1978. He is the highest-ranking defector from the former Eastern Bloc, and has written several books and news articles on the inner workings of the communist intelligence services.

At the time of his defection, General Pacepa simultaneously had the rank of advisor toPresident Nicolae Ceauşescu, acting chief of his foreign intelligence service and a state secretary of Romania's Ministry of Interior. He defected to the United States after PresidentJimmy Carter's approval of his request for political asylum.
