If this has been covered, I apologize, but it was new to me.

"John Kerry and his anti-American IPS playmates

In the mid-80s the Senate Subcommittee on Narcotics, Terrorism and International Operations was set up with John Kerry's help. What became
known as the "John Kerry Committee" quickly became a vicious means of opposing President Reagan's policy of ridding Central America of Marxist-Leninist thugs.
Leaks from the committee charged that there was a CIA/Contra operation running drugs into the US. The leaks were clearly designed to subvert Reagan's anti-communist policies in the region by linking the CIA with
drug-running. (Incidentally, John Kerry and his pals never examined Castro's drug-trafficking activities).
There was no doubt at the time that leaks were coming from Kerry
staffers. But where did Kerry and his staffers get the idea that the CIA was
running drugs? It originated with the infamous pro-Soviet Institute for Policy Studies.
Kerry is one of Institute's most partisan supporters, as is Senator
Harkin ( Sen. Tom Harkin tries to censor Rush Limbaugh). John Kerry put Gary Porter, a fellow of the IPS, on his payroll as a legislative aid. This is of particular interest because Kerry's anti-defense and intelligence voting record exactly
mirrors the IPS's anti-defense and anti-intelligence proposals, which in turn toed the Soviet line.
It was the pro-Castro Richard Barnet, cofounder of the IPS, who accused
the CIA of being a "criminal enterprise that must be dismantled". Kerry
agreed with Barnet to the extent that even after the 1993 Twin Towers bombing he still tried to slash intelligence spending.
Porter and Peter Kornbluh, another pro-Soviet member of the IPS, helped
arrange Kerry and Harkin's 1984 trip to Managua, the result of which
persuaded the Senate to vote against the Contras.
In 1985 the IPS produced a slanderous document called In Contempt of
Congress
. It was published with the aim of completely derailing Reagan's policy
of defeating the attempted Marxist-Leninist conquest of Central America.
No one was surprised when Kerry enthusastically endorsed this pro-Soviet
slander against Reagan. The previous year the IPS published Changing
Course:Blueprint for Peace in Central America. This was another pro-Soviet document that totally ignored Soviet and Cuban meddling in the region, including arms shipments.
By pure chance the document also managed to overlook the pertinent fact
that IPS was actively supporting these Marxist-Leninist thugs, even to the
extent that Saul Landau, a prominent member of the IPS, collaborated in torture and murder by the Sandinistas secret police.
In 1983 the Sandinistas arrested, tortured and then shot Victor Frances.
Although Landau was aware of what was done to Frances he still
collaborated with Lenin Cerna, the Sandinistas secret police chief, in editing footage of Frances' phony confession. The footage was then used for US TV audiences. In my
opinion, this makes Landau and the IPS a party to Frances' murder.
As a dedicated communist and a personal friend of Castro the murder of
Frances in the name of a 'progressive' cause would certainly not bother Landau or the IPS.
This is what Brian Crozier had to say about John Kerry's IPS playmates:
"The IPS is the perfect intellectual front for Soviet activities which would
be resisted if they were to originate openly from the KGB."
Crozier is a fellow of the prestigious Institute for the Study of Conflict and one of the West's leading experts on the Soviet Union. Richard Barnet saw
Crozier's criticism of the Institute's pro-Soviet activities as an
opportunity to use Britain's draconian libel laws to silence him. (In Britain, as is the case in Australia, truth is no defence in defamation actions).
However, when the IPS discovered that Crozier had been collecting enormous amounts of information on the IPS, some of it from defectors, the blustering Richard Barnet withdrew the action. The possibility that those documents and affidavits would be made public in a British court was something that the IPS could not risk. Nevertheless, Barnet still had the effrontery to claim victory over Crozier!
John Kerry is not guilty of being anti-American because he associated
with anti-Americans. The fact is that he has spent years collaborating with
people who have been active agents of a foreign power: first for the Soviet Union and now Cuba.
Whichever way one examines the mountainous evidence of the anti-American activities of the IPS, one and only one conclusion can be drawn: the IPS is an agent of influence for Fidel Castro. So why has John Kerry been collaborating with it?
Little wonder that he and his media allies have been desperately hiding
his
IPS links and what they mean for American national security.
Although the Swift Boat Veterans have done sterling work, despite the
Democrats' thuggish efforts to smear and silence them, they have only
revealed one part of Kerry's appalling character. There is another side of Kerry that has yet to be revealed.
Given what is known about him, one would have to be insane with an
irrational hatred of Bush to put one's life and liberty in the hands of John Kerry.
