Deep state researcher and film maker

Dirk Pohlmann is a German journalist and documentary film maker. After 2004, Pohlmann's main focus has been on intelligence operations during the Cold War and after. His work has covered many deep state activities, including the Secret war against Sweden and how spooks have infiltrated Wikipedia and control the editing of deep political subjects. Since 2016, when German public media ended cooperation with him, he has published only in independent media.

The German edition of Wikipedia tags him as a "spreader of conspiracy-ideologies", while the English edition is far less biased.

Education

Pohlmann studied journalism, philosophy as well as law at Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz. He was conscripted in the German Bundeswehr. During his studies, he was especially impressed by the Jesuit Helmut Erlinghagen who was a personal witness of the effects of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Career

In 1986 Pohlmann started with the production of documentaries. After his film on the airship company CargoLifter, and after starting to work as a freelance in-house documentarian, he became a manager of CargoLifter World. It went into insolvency with its parent company Cargolifter AG in 2002. Pohlmann attributed the difficult situation of Cargolifter mainly to the German public media, and to the unpreparedness of politicians in Germany, which in the end led to leaving business to US companies.

After 2012, he was managing director of Peter Seeberger's pharmaceutical company ArtemiFlow for the production of the antimalarial drug Artemisin. Before, in 2008, he had produced a documentary on it, The Sugar Code. He ended his contract as CEO in 2017 when Peter Seeberger himself took over. In his time with ArtemiFlow, Pohlmann gained insight into the business practices of pharmaceutical companies and the influence of the Gates Foundation on vaccination and antimalarial drugs.

Documentaries

Pohlmann has produced about 25 documentaries for German public media Arte, ARD and ZDF. These include, among others, (titles translated into English) The Secret Air War of the Superpowers (Arte, 2004), UFOs, Lies and the Cold War (Arte, 2005), Mengele's Heirs' (arte, 2010), Israel and the Bomb (Arte/ZDF, 2012) and Deception – Reagan's Method (2014). This last documentary won an award at the St. Petersburg Film Festival.

Cooperation with independent media

Pohlmann frequently contributes to German independent media. He was a guest in programmes of RT Deutsch and Sputnik News. He regularly published his own contributions at Apolut. Since March 2018, Pohlmann has hosted a critique of Wikipedia with former biology teacher Markus Fiedler in Fiedler's series Geschichten aus Wikihausen (Stories from Wikihausen ), which appear on their eponymous YouTube channel. With Robert Fleischer and Mathias Bröckers he hosts the video channel Das Dritte Jahrtausend (The 3rd Millennium) on ExoMagazinTV.

In 2018, Pohlmann published a text in the German news outlet NachDenkSeiten in which he , according to the Amadeu Antonio Foundation, insinuates that Wikipedia is controlled dominated by the Israeli foreign intelligence service Mossad, which would "flood the Internet with pro-Israeli content" and ensure that activities of "anti-Israeli activists come to a standstill". Wikipedia, he said, exercises absolute domination and has "established a monopoly of power that is incompatible with democracy." The intelligence services of the so-called "US empire" which are equated with the "deep state" are alleged to determine the "synchronized reporting of the media" in Germany as well for the interests of capital against the living realities of the populations in Europe.

Criticism of Wikipedia=

In 2018 he gained public attention in Germany with his criticism of political networking within Wikipedia. A preliminary injunction against a group of Wikipedia critics because they had disclosed the identity of a Wikipedia author, was lifted in early 2019. In doing so, the court had followed the view that the "applicant was editing Wikipedia articles in an opinionated manner" and thus the user's disclosure had been in the public interest. The editor in question "Feliks", a German convert to Judaism, had among other things worked for the Israeli army.

In January 2021, the Süddeutsche Zeitung reported that Fiedler and Pohlmann had identified and doxed another anonymous Wikipedia author and local Greens politician, Ulrich Leiner, in a video because of a correction in a Wikipedia article with real name, phone number and email address -but not any physical addresses - and called to "tell him what you think of his activities". Subsequently, threats were made against the author.

Briefing the UN Security Council, 2023

Russia invited Pohlmann to speak at a meeting of the United Nations Security Council on September 26 2023 which had been requested by Russia to gain support for a UN investigation. He spoke alongside Jimmy Dore about the 2022 Nord Stream pipeline sabotage. Pohlmann said that after a year still "astonishing little" was known about the Nord Stream explosions. He rejected the "Western-sponsored conspiracy theory" that identifies the Russian Federation as the culprit. In his opinion, the authorities conducting ongoing investigations, Germany, Denmark and Sweden "know enough". He added the truth "would open a Pandora's box for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO)".

Pohlmann presented evidence from Ola Tunander of the Peace Research Institute Oslo: The depth of the explosives of 75 to 80 meters requires the use of a decompression chamber and indicates the participation of professional or military divers. Pohlmann referred to the routes of the Poseidon aircraft mentioned in Seymour Hersh's report, to official assessments of the explosive charge equivalent to a few hundred kilograms of conventional explosives as presented by Hans Benjamin Braun. He put forward his understanding that there was geophysical evidence for the use of an explosive charge at least 1,000 times of what has been reported previously, a charge not possible for conventional explosives. In his view, the location of the explosives was designed to generate a shock wave directed at Kaliningrad.

Pohlmann mentioned the large number of hydrophones which had enabled Western countries since the late 1970s to identify every vessel on and below the surface. He added an example for his point of US involvement that Soviet pipelines had already been a target of Western intelligence in the past. In addition, Former German Chancellor, Helmut Schmidt, he stated, had fallen out of grace with President Ronald Reagan when he insisted on a deal to secure "cheap Soviet gas" for Europe.

• 2010: Mengeles Erben – Menschenexperimente im kalten Krieg - "Mengele's Heirs" is a documentary by Dirk Pohlmann that explores the gruesome history of experiments conducted on human subjects in the name of military and medical research. The film delves into the horrors inflicted on people who were deliberately subjected to poisons, deadly bacteria, viruses, psychotropic drugs, and even nuclear radiation. Pohlmann's thesis is that Josef Mengele, the infamous doctor from Auschwitz, was not the only one to use prisoners for lethal experiments, and the Nazi state was not the sole perpetrator of such criminal medicine. The documentary suggests that doctors and biochemists continued these practices in various countries, including Japan, North Korea, the United States, and Eastern Bloc nations, well after World War II. The film raises questions about the ethics and recklessness of these experiments, particularly during the Cold War era. The documentary relies on interviews, archive excerpts, and defector accounts, shedding light on a disturbing chapter of history, writes Hendrik Feindt from the Tagesspiegel in his review.

• 2014: Täuschung – Die Methode Reagan

In accordance with the program information about the film given by ARD, Ronald Reagan considered the secret warfare of the United States during the Cold War to be of paramount importance in 1981. The "Committee for Deceptive Operations" was one of the crucial instruments employed in the battle against the Soviet Union, alongside the arms race.

Gas pipelines were sabotaged using implanted computer chips and trojans, and aerial and naval maneuvers were executed in front of the Soviet Union's primary base in Murmansk. The overarching objective of these actions was to create uncertainty and humiliation, all while demonstrating strength and technological superiority.

The film also addresses the sabotage of the diplomatic efforts made by Olof Palme, Willy Brandt, and Egon Bahr. It analyzes covert operations aimed at reinforcing the public perception of an allegedly aggressive Soviet Union, undermining the peace initiatives of Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme, and binding neutral Sweden as an "aircraft carrier" to NATO.

Author Wolfgang Bittner characterizes the film as "highly informative and horrifying," noting its coverage of various other covert operations conducted by the United States. Bittner also mentions the employment of "hybrid warfare" to weaken Soviet industry. In mid-1982, this strategy resulted in the explosion of the Jamal Pipeline in Siberia, one of the largest non-nuclear explosions in the world. The assassination of Olof Palme is also linked to this USA strategy, as well as efforts to discredit Gorbachev.

Quotes by Dirk Pohlmann

'Feliks'	“Wikipedia is not just what it appears to be. It is more than a lexicon. It is also a bogus encyclopedia, a small but effective opinion manipulation machine. In certain areas, the encyclopedia becomes a pseudo-encyclopedia and has for years been dominated by a small group consisting of approx. 200 people. The only thing remaining is something that looks like a reference book, but is in the hands of dogmatists and people who write in Wikipedia non-stop, but have no qualifications in the areas they write about.”	24 December 2018
Andriy Biletsky	“[...] since February, since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, it's been a battle, this entry of Biletsky has been rewritten, so to speak, to ultra-conservative, courageous special-operations warrior, who was always a prominent leader figure. That is the US compatible version of the neo-Nazi Biletsky, or the Nazi Biletsky and this error is in both the German Wikipedia, and the English Wikipedia. There they are not able to find it. You remember with other people they search through everything to find one single thing, they leave out 95 percent of the sources to find one that they can use to smash someone, and here they miss the worst things. These are two of the central pamphlets of Biletsky, two of his programmatic political writings that he wrote. A manifesto, so to speak, and that doesn't come up, instead he's white-washed.”	20 July 2022
