So there is no way for you to verify the claims you have made here. So you are just pushing talking points you have seen on his website but cannot verify any of it.
Russian gets zero sympathy because their primary targets include civilians and civilian infrastructure including children's hospitals in addition to their multitude of OTHER war crimes. Reap the whirlwind Russia!
If the website says GIS goes out to 170 countries why would I disbelieve it? Copley's reputation has been built on on ver 50+ years of analysis. Note that Copley's bio states that his analysis has gone out to 130 heads of state. My conclusion is you're not good at Intel.
What, he didn't predict that Carter would dump the Shah ahead of time? Everything you are providing is from a single source on the internet and yet you haven't questioned or crosschecked any of the information you are blindly believing?
FWIW, you're saying 1) You want proof that the governments of 170 countries subscribe to Copley's Intel as stated on his website for at least 19 years 2) To prove the above you want Copley to provide you with the names of the subscribing countries If he were lying about the number of countries that subscribe he could lie about which countries were subscribing just as easily. So what you claim would be proof would be no such thing.
Because Iraq couldn’t take over the Middle East, should we have let them clown Kuwait? It’s about US national interest and strength projection.
Most of Copley's predictions, intel and analysis are in print or made on the John Batchelor radio show. Such as the 1973 prediction (with Stefan T Possony) that due to demographic, economic and strategic trends the USSR would dissolve in the early 1990s. Who else got that prediction correct at such an early date? No one I can think of.
Has there ever been an army like Russia’s? It’s lost more troops than have ever been inserted in theater and still Ukraine musters little or no resistance all across the lines.
This is a serious issue. I was previously unaware so I checked and he was found guilty, by a jury, of several felonies involving repeated sexual texting with someone he believed was 15. He also sent a terrible video of himself naked doing things I won't describe here to the same person he believed to be 15. Then it was revealed he was similarly charged in New York years before but was apparently allowed to receive diversion (strict probation for first time law breakers for a time then the charges are expunged). He went to state prison for it the second time. I don't see how he can claim he isn't a pedophile. Maybe you should investigate his actions a little further before accepting his dismissal. Like I wrote, to me, this is a serious issue. You may disagree with me and that's fine.
So you cannot prove the assertion that 170 countries subscribe to his GIS service other than going by what you read on this website. Until you can do that, please spare the board any more of your propaganda about this guy and his expert analysis on Ukraine. Seeing as he is 79 years old, I doubt he is doing much original research on it anyway.
I'm sure there were other experts that held that position but are not pedophiles. Just does not seem that there are any of them that support the idea Russia started this war.
Flashback to early February 2023. Russian losses on the left, Ukrainian losses on the right. No wonder Ukraine arrested and tortured Gonzalo. Now he's dead. Killed by Democrats
I've listed all the sources I've used to cross-check many times. They are the crème de la crème and they all agree with my takes.
Who would care how many country's governments subscribe to GIS? If Reagan's national security director said that Copley's Intel was indispensible why would other countries not want access to it? What's important is Copley's analysis. His track record is phenomenal. You are simply looking for an excuse to reject out-of-hand top-tier Intel analysis that conflicts with the nonsense you've chosen to believe. Here's some more food for you: Gregory R. Copley Western Australian Gregory Copley, the author of The New Total War of the 21st Century and the Trigger of the Fear Pandemic, has served for almost five decades as an adviser on strategic issues to a number of national, military, and intelligence leaders around the world. In those capacities, he has been involved in the creation, training, and planning of several national intelligence organisations for governments around the world. Copley, who was born in Perth in 1946, remains Editor-in-Chief of Defense & Foreign Affairs publications which he founded in the US in 1972, and Director of Intelligence at the Global Information System (GIS), a global strategic intelligence service founded in the 1990s solely for governments. He is also President of the International Strategic Studies Association (ISSA), based near Washington, DC, which he co-founded in 1982. Mr Copley also founded, within ISSA, The Zahedi Center for the Study of Monarchy, Traditional Governance, and Sovereignty, and earlier established specialist ISSA centers to study issues in the Balkans and Eastern Mediterranean, Africa, the Middle East, Central Asia, the Indian Ocean, Battlefield Survival, and so on. He has authored or co-authored 36 books (including this volume), and several thousand articles, papers, and lectures on strategic issues, history, energy, aviation, and so on. Recent books include Sovereignty in the 21st Century and the Crisis for Identity, Cultures, Nation-States, and Civilizations (2018), UnCivilization: Urban Geopolitics in a Time of Chaos (2012), and The Art of Victory (2006), as well as books on energy and aviation, and numerous books on different regions of the world. He also wrote one volume of poetry, On Preferring Life, published by Sid Harta in 2010, and was the lead author of a study on Australia's strategic outlook into the mid-21st Century, Australia 2050, An Examination of Australia's Condition, Outlook, and Options for the First Half of the 21st Century, in 2007, and Such A Full Sea: Australia's Options in a Changing Indian Ocean Region, in 2009 (both also published by Sid Harta). The rest is found at: Gregory R. Copley
Which is what should exactly make any true analyst wary. If all your sources agree, you can guarantee I'm going to look harder at those sources. What I am going to find out is that there are fewer true sources and in your case, probably a single source.
The Empire Strikes Back I see where Russia has very scarily used a hypersonic against the port city of Mykolaiv, but I don't see what they hit (if anything). So no way to tell at this time if they hit their intended target. But, as usual, every time Russia uses a hypersonic in combat we get more data on them, which means we will be that much more prepared to shoot them down when the time comes. So thanks again, Putin. Russia launches nuclear-ready hypersonic missile at Ukraine port city in major escalation
I question anyone that would claim they provide Intel to 170 countries but will not name them. So if he provided the Intel to a country for a year, then they canceled their subscription the next year, and renewed the following year, does that count as one country or two? FYI - I'm seeing these two strategists next Wednesday for a promotion of their book. I'll be sure to ask them what their thoughts on who started the war in Ukraine. These are what the bona fides for real strategists look like. Rebecca D. Patterson is a Professor of Practice and Associate Director of the Security Studies Program at Georgetown University.
