FULL VIDEO: "DECEPTION WAS MY JOB" or "Soviet Subversion of the Free World Press"
Below is a video interview of the late Yuri Bezmenov that took place in 1984; a man named G. Edward Griffin is the interviewer. Griffin is a controversial figure, but his reputation in no way diminishes the message that Yuri Bezmanov relates in the video.

From Wikipedia:
Yuri Alexandrovich Bezmenov (Russian: Ю́рий Алекса́ндрович Безме́нов; 1939 – 1993), known by the alias Tomas David Schuman, was a Soviet journalist for RIA Novosti and a former PGU KGB informant who defected to Canada.
After being assigned to a station in India, Bezmenov eventually grew to love the people and the culture of India, but at the same time, he began to resent the KGB-sanctioned oppression of intellectuals who dissented from Moscow's policies. He decided to defect to the West. Bezmenov is best remembered for his anticommunist lectures and books from the 1980s.
In 1984, he gave an interview to G. Edward Griffin. In the interview, Bezmenov explained the methods used by the KGB for the gradual subversion of the political system of the United States.
Under the pen-name "Tomas D. Schuman", Bezmenov authored the book Love Letter to America. The author's biography of the book likens Bezmenov to Winston Smith, from George Orwell's 1984. "Tomas D. Schuman" was associated with the World Information Network (WIN) of Westlake Village, California.
In 1983, at a lecture in Los Angeles, Bezmenov expressed the opinion that he "wouldn't be surprised" if the Soviet Union had shot down Korean Air Lines Flight 007 in order to kill Larry McDonald, an anti-communist Democratic member of the United States House of Representatives. Around the same time, Bezmenov had his child in the West, a daughter named Tanya. He later had a son named Johnathan.
"The main emphasis of the KGB is not in the area of intelligence at all. Only about 15% of time, money, and manpower is spent on espionage and such. The other 85% is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion or active measures... or psychological warfare."
According to the Windsor Star, he died of a massive heart attack on Tuesday, January 5, 1993.
Moderator's note: That sounds plausible as his age was 54, but an injection of potassium chloride (KCl) can easily mimic a "massive heart attack" and is practically undetectable at autopsy. No matter, it seems he was wasting his time attempting to warn us, as our government is now quite literally filled with Marxian socialists, determined to control every aspect of our lives. Hell, no one will do anything even now, and they are in our faces!
