I believe Brown Moses got all the backing after writing about a weapons supply line from Croatia to Syrian opposition groups. I assume he got funding because it's easiest to just pay the online guy to only look at "Assad's crimes", instead of risking him exposing more CIA logistics ops. http://brown-moses.blogspot.com/2013/02/more-background-on-croatian-weapons-in.html

i def believe thisBrown Moses posted:Bellingcat gets about 50% of its funding from NED, OSF, Adessium, and Porticus, and the other 50% from workshops we run. None of Bellingcat's funding comes from the Atlantic Council (or the UAE) and I only get paid by the Atlantic Council for reports I contribute to, usually once a year. If you're that interested in the work I'm doing a documentary about it has just been released, so go watch that

I believe it, because BM is the sort of tool who would publish articles like "It's equally as likely the civilians in Yemen bombed themselves as it is that they were bombed by the Saudis" on his own, driven by a desire to be the "well actually" guy in the room.

well actually, https://www.bellingcat.com/?s=yemen Bellingcat doesn't have a ton of Yemen articles but the ones they do have are critical of the Saudis. Here's their most recent one from this summer: https://www.bellingcat.com/news/mena/2018/08/18/19432/

NED was literally founded to fund soft-power stuff that the CIA was considered too toxic to be involved with after the Church Committee hearings. I think funding from them is suspect enough.quote:President Ronald Reagan established the program in 1983, following years of scandals that tarnished the Central Intelligence Agency. Soon it took over many of the tasks that the CIA used to perform. When the United States wanted to interfere in the Italian election of 1948, for example, the CIA did the job. Decades later, when Washington sought to push its favored candidate into the presidency of Nicaragua, our instrument was the National Endowment for Democracy. More recently, it has sought to influence elections in Mongolia, Albania, Bulgaria, and Slovakia. “A lot of what we do today was done covertly 25 years ago by the CIA,” one of the organization’s founders explained during the 1990s.

there was a good radio war nerd episode recently with max abrahms and at one point john dolan asks him if behind closed doors, like especially after the iraq war and stuff, if they know they are full of poo poo or that their ideology might have problems. and max abrahms is like, no, not even a little bit. behind closed doors they think their terrible psychotic worldviews are unassailable anyway thats why there will be no mercy when the potomac runs red and the suburbs of DC burn
