NWJ 621- Operation Gladio 101 w/Colonel Towner Watkins

In this episode of "No Way, Jose!", host Jose Galison dives deep into the shadowy world of Operation Gladio with special guest Colonel Towner Watkins from "The Colonel's Corner" podcast. Titled "NWJ 621- Operation Gladio 101 w/Colonel Towner Watkins," the discussion kicks off with the historical roots of Operation Gladio—a clandestine NATO stay-behind operation established during the Cold War to counter potential Soviet invasions in Europe through guerrilla warfare and sabotage. Colonel Watkins shares her expertise on how this program, involving secret armies armed and trained by Western intelligence agencies, evolved into a web of controversy, including allegations of false-flag operations and domestic terrorism in countries like Italy and Belgium.

Building on the foundation, Jose and Colonel Watkins explore the colloquial usage of "Gladio" in modern discourse, where it has become shorthand for state-sponsored covert activities, deep-state manipulations, and engineered crises to maintain control or justify policies. They trace its manifestations across eras—from the post-WWII setup through the turbulent 1970s and 1980s, marked by events like the Strategy of Tension, to contemporary parallels in global politics, such as alleged influence operations, cyber false flags, and hybrid warfare tactics seen in recent conflicts. This eye-opening conversation unpacks how Gladio's legacy persists today, urging listeners to question official narratives and examine the hidden hands shaping world events.
