Part 2: From Woodstock to the Iran/Contra Affair

CHAPTER SIX

HIPPIES, WOODSTOCK, LSD AND MORE

Having spent much time detailing these historical events, I want to briefly share a number of lies and horrible acts committed by the American government, the intelligence services of the CIA and FBI and the armed forces of our nation. Through research, defections by CIA agents and testimonies from people involved, it is clear that the CIA spawned and aided the hippie movement in the early 1960’s.^[1] The CIA set up operational houses in San Francisco, Los Angeles and New York, where they introduced the new drug of that time, LSD or “acid” as most people knew it. This sinister plan by people in the World Government was so evil that there are no words to describe it. Think of the millions of young Americans who were lured into the drug culture and had their lives wasted and destroyed.

The Woodstock Festival in the state of New York, August 15-18, 1969, was an event organized by the CIA. Most likely it was a joint effort of the CIA and the US Army Psychological Warfare Department, since both of these organizations used hardcore rock music in conjunction with drugs to achieve behavior changes in people. The large crowd of 250,000 persons was exposed to the worst possible music for three days and nights and all the drugs and sex they wanted and could endure. It showed the World Government how to control large crowds in the future as the need arose.

The local authorities already knew what would happen, so ask yourself the following questions: If drugs were illegal and many of the people there were teenagers, why didn’t the local police raid the place? Why didn’t the police request help from the FBI and New York State Police to control the crowd and protect the underage teenagers? With the smoke of marijuana hanging like a cloud, why did the police stand back and just let it happen? The answer is that it was a government sanctioned event and there was no interference due to “national security.”

How many of you remember the American invasion of Panama in 1989? The dictator Manuel Noriega took refuge in a Roman Catholic embassy which was surrounded by American troops and blasted with loud rock music. Noriega eventually surrendered and was taken to the U.S. where he was sentenced to 40 years in a federal prison. What was his crime? He had worked many years for the CIA and was a kingpin in the drug smuggling operation run by the CIA but he started to take too many personal “cuts” and was taken down.

THE DOWNFALL OF PRESIDENT NIXON

President Richard Nixon had become more and more outspoken against Jewish power in the United States. In a recorded meeting with Billy Graham, the two discussed how the Jews control the media, banks and politics and American intelligence operators were told to take Nixon down.

RICHARD NIXON AND BILLY GRAHAM

It is extremely interesting that in 1972 when Richard Nixon was president, he met with Billy Graham in the Oval Office and their conversation was recorded and released by the National Archives in February 2002, when more than 500 hours of audio recording from the Nixon presidency was made available to the public. During their private conversation in the Oval Office, Graham expressed disdain for what he saw as Jewish domination of the media in the United States.

Graham: “This stranglehold has got to be broken or this country is going down the drain.”

Nixon: “You believe that?”

Graham: “Yes, sir.”

Nixon: “Oh boy. So do I. But I can’t ever say that, but I believe it.”

Graham: “No, but if you get elected a second time, then we might be able to do something.”

At a later point in their conversation, Nixon raised the subject of Jewish influence in Hollywood.

Graham: “A lot of Jews are great friends of mine. They swarm around me and are friendly to me. Because they know that I am friendly to Israel… so forth. But they don’t know how I really feel about what they’re doing to this country, and I have no power and no way to handle them.”

Nixon: “You must not let them know.”

The Jewish controlled media later picked up the story and applied pressure to Graham because comments like these from a well-known world evangelist were extremely damaging to the Jewish leadership. On Friday, March 1, 2002 Billy Graham issued a press release, which stated the following:

“Although I have no memory of the occasion, I deeply regret comments I apparently made in an Oval Office conversation with President Nixon some 30 years ago. They do not reflect my views and I sincerely apologize for any offense caused by the remarks. Throughout my ministry, I have sought to build bridges between Jews and Christians. I will continue to strongly support all future efforts to advance understanding and mutual respect between our communities.”

Billy Graham was 83 years old and in bad health, battling Parkinson’s disease when this press release was made public. Whether it came from Billy Graham or his handlers is for the reader to judge. The fact remains that Billy Graham spoke forcefully about the Jews in 1972, but in 2002 he could not remember having said such a thing. This again shows the power of the American Jewish leadership, that even powerful politicians and religious leaders will bow to their demands.

WATERGATE

A plot was hatched in 1974 to have five men break into the office of the Democratic National Headquarters at the Watergate apartment complex in Washington, D.C., to steal information about the upcoming election campaign. The five man team was led by G. Gordon Liddy (right), former FBI agent, and E. Howard Hunt, Jr. (left), a former CIA operator. Both Liddy and Hunt were sentenced to federal prison, but they never told who had controlled them. President Nixon was caught on tape discussing the break-in and the need to cover it up. At first he denied that he had any knowledge of the break-in, but when the Supreme Court ruled that the tapes had to be turned over to the prosecutors, Nixon had no other option than to resign. Vice President Gerald Ford was sworn in as the next president and his first order of business was to pardon Nixon, who was never impeached and never prosecuted. Nixon learned his lesson and never again discussed the issue in public. He was allowed to live and eventually died at the age of 81 on April 22, 1994.

CHAPTER SEVEN

AMERICAN MEDDLING IN OTHER NATIONS

I want to spend a little time on Iran (Persia), since it is very much at the forefront in 2009. Prior to WWI, most of the Middle East was part of the Ottoman Empire, which was a 623 year Turkish empire from 1299 to 1922. Turkey had fought on the losing side in WWI and was disassembled by the allies into different states. Syria and Lebanon became French territories while Iraq, Jordan, and Palestine were taken over by England. ^[2]

Iran has a sad history of foreign powers meddling with it. Up to WWII, Russia dominated Iranian politics, which in reality was a vassal state to Russia. When WWI broke out in 1914, Iran became a battleground and saw German-Turkish troops battle Russian troops and British troops. British government tried to occupy Iran when the war was over in 1918 but international pressure forced them to withdraw in 1921. Then their intelligence service helped stage a coup and that put an Iranian officer in charge by the name of Reza Khan (left), who took the name Reza Shah Pahlavi. But he did not trust the British or the Soviets, and during the rise of Nazi Germany in the 1930’s, he started to increase trade and political ties with the Nazis. In 1941, Soviet forces invaded Iran from the north and British troops invaded from Iraq. Iranian resistance was crushed and the country was divided into two zones administered by the Soviet’s and the British. Reza Shah Pahlavi was forced to resign by the British and exiled to South Africa and his son Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi (right) was put in charge.

During the three years of occupation, American military supplies flowed through Iran to the Soviet Union which used them to defeat the Germans.

The British forces turned over its zone to Iranian rule in 1945, but the Soviets did not leave until a year later in 1946.

From 1951 through 1953, Mohammad Mosaddeq (right) was the Prime Minister of Iran and tried to nationalize the Iranian oil fields which up to that time were controlled by the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company, which in reality was run by the British government. This is when the American CIA was brought into play and staged a coup that ousted Mosaddeq. From that time on Reza Shah Junior (left) became an American controlled puppet, and the United States built up the Iranian army, navy and air force with the latest military hardware and became an American ally. In return for this tremendous military buildup, Iran became the main supplier of oil to Israel and also became a thorn in the flesh for the rest of the Arab nations since Iran was a friend of Israel.

The American embassy in Tehran became a beehive of activity for the CIA. Many clandestine operations were done through the American bases in Iran and the CIA had free reign in the country. This became a sore point for the hardcore Muslims who hated the Russians, British and Americans with equal hatred. It was at this time that the Ayatollah Khomeini  (right) came on the scene and started a revolt against the Shah and his corrupt American supported government and the dreaded secret police, the Savak. Khomeini blasted the Shah and the United States, and after he had been arrested once and released, in 1964, he was re-arrested and sent into exile. He ended up in Turkey and was kept as a guest of the Turkish intelligence service from 1964-1965. From 1965 to 1978 he lived in the Islamic holy city of Najaf in Iraq under the protection of Saddam Hussein, but the latter turned on him and he was sent to France where he lived from 1978-79 protected by the French intelligence service.

In 1979, the World Government decided that it was time to retire Reza Shah and the American government was told to use the CIA to take him out. Here is what I wrote in January of 2003:

“….Most of the Muslims in Iran are Shiites, and as the Shah steered Iran more and more toward a Western culture, the Shiite clergy became more and more angry. Leading them was the Mullah Ruhollah Khomeini. During 1962-63 Khomeini spoke out against the land reform, when land was taken from the Islamic leadership and given over to private ownership, and also to the emancipation of Iranian women. He was arrested and after a year in prison, he was exiled on November 4, 1964 to the Shiite holy city of An-Najaf in Iraq. From here he continued to lead a violent protest against the Shah of Iran. In the mid 1970’s Khomeini’s influence in Iran grew dramatically. He was calling for a violent overthrow of the Iranian regime to turn Iran back into a strict Muslim nation. This caused Saddam Hussein (left) to take heed, since his regime was a secular government, based upon support of Sunnite Muslim’s. On October 6, 1978, Saddam forced Khomeini to leave Iraq, and he was picked up by the French Secret Service, and settled in Neauphle-le-Chareau, a suburb outside Paris, France. From there, taped messages from Khomeini were smuggled en masse into Iran, to incite the Iranian people.

“The French government was unhappy with the situation in the Middle East; they had lost influence and wanted back in the market. Strikes and massive civil unrest in Iran forced the Shah to flee from Iran with his entire family and servants. They were flown out on American military transports and taken to a secluded U.S. base in Panama, then run by the U.S. military (read CIA). This base was used by the U.S. as a secluded rest area for its top brass. On October 22, 1979, the Shah entered the United States to be treated for Lymphatic cancer (cancer is a favorite assassination method of the CIA), and on November 4, 1979, Iranian students (Islamic secret police) stormed the American Embassy in Teheran and took the ambassador with some 50 American staff members hostage, and held it for more than a year. In order to take the pressure off the American government, the Shah was given asylum in Egypt by president Anwar-as-Sadat. The Shah died on July 27, 1980 at the age of 61.”

"Shortly after the CIA had removed the Shah and his family from Iran, the French intelligence service flew Ayatollah Khomeini back to Iran where he was welcomed like a hero on February 1, 1979. On March 30-31, 1979, a referendum was held in Iran and 98% of the voters voted to abolish the monarchy and replace it with an Islamic Republic. On October 22, 1979, Iranian 'students' stormed the American Embassy and held 55 American diplomats hostage for 444 days. This effectively cost President Jimmy Carter the presidency, and in the election of 1980, Ronald Reagan won the election to become the next president. The leader of the 'students' was none other than the current Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who comes from an Iranian Jewish family that converted to Islam many years ago, known as “crypto Jews.”[3]

After having lost Iran, the CIA moved its assets to Iraq and the U.S. started to build up Iraq’s military forces. On September 22, 1980, the Iraqi army invaded Iran and a bloody war began that was to last for the next eight years. Iran was in a dilemma because its entire military arsenal consisted of American weapons, but with the hostage situation and an embargo from the United States, they could not get spare parts for their military hardware. Negotiations took place in Algeria and an agreement was signed on January 19, 1981. The hostages were released the next day just minutes after Ronald Reagan had been sworn in but the American people didn’t know that secret shipments of spare parts to the Iranian military was part of the agreement.

In order to help Saddam Hussein win the war, the CIA started to transfer chemical weapons to Iraq like mustard gas. This was used on the Iranian soldiers and Iran protested loudly to the United Nations that Iraq was violating the Geneva Accord on warfare, but with the U.S. as the backer of Iraq, Iran got nowhere. The Soviets decided that it would be a good idea to bleed Iran and Iraq so that they would have an easier time taking these nations over in a weakened condition. As a result, the Iranians and the Iraqis fought and died with supplies from the U.S. and the Soviet Union. The Western bankers made a killing on this war and happy days were back when the American factories worked day and night to keep the combatants going.

RENEWED FRIENDSHIP WITH SADDAM HUSSEIN

Let me again quote what I wrote in 2003:

“The CIA wanted revenge, the Mossad wanted revenge and Israel and South Africa needed oil. Since the West had more cash than the Soviets, Saddam was dined and wined and promised massive help to build up his military forces. In return, he was to attack Iran and drive out Khomeini. During the month of September, 1980, the Iraqi military forces invaded Iran and tried to take the Iranian oil fields. But the Iraqi forces were not strong enough to overpower the Iranian military, despite its losses due to purges and a spare part embargo from the U.S. The invasion bogged down into a war that was to last for eight years. 

“American CIA agents set up offices in Iraq and included American military personnel who were to direct the Iraqi forces. This was done under the Reagan administration. On a regular schedule, the Pentagon released satellite photographs, thus exposing the positions of the Iranian soldiers and equipment. The Mossad will never walk away from a possibility to make money. Since the Iranians only had American military hardware, they needed spare parts and ammunition. Because Israel has American equipment, including spare parts and ammunition, this was sold to North Korea who in turn used Russian military transports to fly them into Iran.

“The Soviets were unhappy that they had been aced out of Iraq, and they signed military assistance programs with the Iranians who then started to replace their American equipment with Russian. Since the Iraqis were having difficulty to get spare parts for their Russian equipment, the CIA purchased equipment and ammunition from nations like East Germany and other Eastern European nations, who were client states of the Soviet Union, and then resold them to Iraq, who paid for them with oil money which came from the American consumer whenever they bought gasoline for their cars. Everybody was making good money on the backs of the young men of Iran and Iraq who had to do the dying on the battle fields^[4].

WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION

“After awhile, it looked like Iraq was going to lose the war with Iran. This would upset the entire Jewish/American policy in the Middle East. It was decided that chemical and biological weapons would be given to Iraq and that they would be given assistance to develop nuclear weapons in order to defeat the Iranians. Saddam Hussein’s education was that of an attorney, but he never finished his studies. Instead he was educated in murder, torture, blackmail and control of people through fear and intimidation. Thus, he was unable to lead a highly technical weapons program; it had to be done by experts from other nations.

“The United States was going to supply the majority of the technical assistance, including material, in conjunction with the following countries: China, France, England, Japan, the Netherlands (Holland), Belgium, Spain, Sweden and Germany.

“Despite that the American Congress in the mid 1970’s had passed laws forbidding American contractors to export chemical, biological and nuclear weapons technology, the CIA set up the network to do that work.

“In the early 1980’s American defense laboratories delivered quantities of Anthrax for the arming of Iraq with biological weapons. Iraqi military and armament experts were brought to the United States where they were further educated and trained. This was during Ronald Reagan’s presidency. North Korea was selling missiles (Scuds) to the Iraqis, so they could have a delivery system. The Soviet Union and France cooperated in building nuclear reactors in Iraq, with the permission of the American government. Saddam Hussein was on top, he was floating in money and he was being armed by the most devastating weapons of mass destruction. Hundreds of the most advanced defense contractors in the world had set up shop in Iraq, building production facilities for these weapons of mass destruction.

“Saddam received help with nuclear, biological, chemical, rocket and conventional weapons. Despite the fact that all forms of nerve gases had been outlawed by almost all nations in a world treaty years ago in Switzerland, no one paid attention to it. Soon the Iranians began to cry foul and report that their troops were gassed by mustard gas and other deadly gases developed by the Germans and the British during WWI.

“Immediately the CIA, the Mossad, and all the other intelligence services started damage control, and since they had control over the media, people in the world were told that the Iranians were crying foul because they were losing the war. Thus, when tens of thousands of young Iranian solders were either dead or left in a comatose state, the world stated that it was not true; it was all propaganda coming out of Iran.

“A total of 24 American corporations, 80 German corporations, 3 Chinese corporations, 8 French corporations, 17 British corporations, 6 Russian corporations, 5 Japanese corporations, 3 Dutch corporations, 7 Belgian corporations, 3 Spanish corporations and 2 Swedish corporations trained, armed and built facilities in Iraq from 1980 up to the end of that decade. Add to this list the U.S. Department of Energy, Defense, Commerce and Agriculture, which are federal agencies. The U.S. government laboratories, Lawrence Livermore, Los Alamos and Sandia trained Iraqi nuclear scientists and gave non-fission material for construction of a nuclear bomb.

“By that time, America was Saddam’s best friend, and with a super power like the U.S. behind him, he thought he had it made. After eight years of bloody fighting, the Iranians were running out of fresh new soldiers, and it was obvious that they were going to lose the war. If they had hated the United States before, they now loathed the U.S. for arming Iraq with weapons of mass destruction. One American general made the following remark: ‘What’s the difference if the Iranian soldiers die from a bullet or from gas, death is death.’ In 1988, Khomeini agreed to a cease fire.”[5]

AFGHANISTAN AND THE CIA

The Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan on December 24, 1979 with more than 100,000 soldiers and established an Afghan Communist regime backed up by the Soviet Army. It didn’t take long for the CIA to get involved since the Cold War was still in full operation. As thousands of Afghan mujahedeen (freedom fighters) wanted to fight the Soviets, training camps were set up in Pakistan in the same areas where the Taliban is now in control and the CIA began to pour in weapons, ammunition and other war supplies to build up an insurgent force against the Soviets. In order to hide this as an American CIA operation, weapons were purchased from Eastern European nations which were still under the control of the Soviets. It was a nasty black market in which the governments of Poland, Czechoslovakia and other nations tried to make some extra money on Soviet arms.

The Soviets brought in fighter bombers and helicopters and the Afghan fighters started to lose and the CIA decided to provide them with anti-aircraft missiles. First, they brought in old Soviet handheld missiles but they were ineffective. Next British missiles were brought in but they were difficult to operate. This finally led to the American made Stinger missile which took a great toll on Soviet aircraft.

Osama bin Laden was a young man straight out of college who joined the fight in Afghanistan in 1979. By 1984 the CIA had realized that he had some talents, and instead of fighting the Soviets, he was put in charge of bringing in money, arms and fighters from other Muslim nations. As he went about this work, he learned how to build a network of freedom fighters which the Soviets called terrorists and trained them to be skilled in planting roadside bombs and other useful skills to destroy the Soviet military operations in Afghanistan.

The Soviets called it quits in 1989 and withdrew from Afghanistan two years before the collapse of their empire. This was their “Vietnam” as thousands of soldiers had been killed, more than one million Afghan civilians had been killed and millions had fled the country. Afghanistan had been wasted by almost ten years of warfare and the different warlords in the nation fought for control of what remained. The CIA had no interest in rebuilding the nation since its aim was to fight the Soviets and cause them as much damage as possible. The nation was abandoned by American forces and left to fend for itself. This created a great anger and bitterness among Osama bin Laden and the Afghan freedom fighters. A great hate replaced the admiration once held for America among these men.

BACK TO THE MIDDLE EAST

The government of Israel which is controlled by the Zionist World Federation wanted both Iran and Iraq to be reduced to third world nations, since they posed the greatest threat to Israel’s security. The governments of England and the United States wanted control over the oil fields in these two nations and the Soviets wanted to expand into the Middle East. Thus, the war between Iraq and Iran was a bonanza for all these nations and it was at this point that the most bizarre episode in American history was to be played out.

CHAPTER EIGHT

THE IRAN-CONTRA AFFAIR

The CIA was up to its ears in secret wars in Angola and Central America during the Reagan administration. A parallel organization to the CIA called the National Security Council (NSC) existed in the United States with a larger budget and more people employed than the CIA but it was not well known by the American people.

In 1984 Vice Admiral John M. Poindexter held the title of National Security Advisor to President Reagan and the day to day operations officer in the basement of the White House was Lt. Colonel Oliver North. During 1981-1986 Col. North was involved in many different covert operations. Both men were Roman Catholics and Poindexter was also a member of the powerful Knights of Malta.

The Cold War had spread to Central America and the Soviets had used rebels in 1979 to topple Anastasio Somoza, the CIA puppet from power in Nicaragua with his very corrupt regime. In 1984 Congress passed the Boland Amendment banning direct military aid to the Contras in Nicaragua who were the CIA army fighting the Communist Sandinistas in Nicaragua under control of Daniel Ortega.

John Pointdexter	Oliver North	Anastasio Somoza	William Casey	Robert McFarlane	Richard Secord	Albert Hakim

Since President Carter had openly branded Somoza as a dictator, suppressing freedom, the CIA relied upon Israel to supply the Somoza regime with weapons and ammunition. The Sandinistas became the rulers and the CIA backed regime was forced into the jungles and a new little war began. Somoza fled in a Nicaraguan transport aircraft to Florida but was denied in his request for asylum by President Carter. He was accepted in the country of Paraguay, but on September 17, 1980, he was assassinated at the age of 54 by a “Sandinista” commando team. It is always convenient for the CIA puppets to be killed once they are out of power. “Dead men do not talk,” an expression the CIA has adhered to since WWII.

Let me share the following if you are reading this and do not have a lot of knowledge of military campaigns. For the CIA to keep its different armies going in the various regions in the world, it takes a lot more than just equipping soldiers with weapons and sending them out to fight. First, there needs to be training bases; American advisors are used for this purpose. Secondly, the troops need shelter, food, clothing, medical supplies, washing of clothing, and repair of weapons, trucks, helicopters and airplanes. The soldiers who are recruited to fight as “freedom fighters” (“terrorists” for those they are fighting) have families who must be supported with money, food and clothing. Hospitals must be secured for those who are wounded. To do all of this takes thousands of American servicemen to make sure all these supplies are getting to the war zone.  A CIA war is not cheap and it is paid for by the American taxpayer. For a president to say that he does not know of operations like this is a lie because his cabinet has to submit budgets for each of these operations and the president is always kept informed.

William Casey was the CIA director during this time and huge military bases had been set up in Guatemala, El Salvador and Panama. Casey turned to Robert C. McFarlane, who was the National Security Advisor for President Reagan in 1984. Casey and McFarland devised a plan to raise money for the war in Nicaragua. It was codenamed, “The Enterprise,” and was to be run by two businessmen, Major General Richard Secord and Iranian born Albert Hakim who died of a heart attack at the age of 66 in 2003. Secord had been stationed in Iran in the 1970’s as a CIA agent and Hakim had long had ties to the CIA.

Casey and McFarland had to overcome two hurdles in the form of the Boland amendment and the embargo on arms sales to Iran. This was an intricate operation by the CIA, NSC, Israeli Mossad and the Soviet KGB. Hakim was a known weapons dealer to nations, and the Iranians were contacted and asked if they were interested in buying American arms and spare parts for its armed forces. The Iranians had the money from the oil they were selling and they were in a bloody war with Iraq and needed the spare parts. They could not buy them on the open arms market due to the embargo. Thus, the Iranians were more than happy to send a shopping list of military hardware to Hakim which was secured from military stockpiles U.S. suppliers and sent to Israel who had “officially” ordered the material.

Once these military shipments arrived in Israel, they were loaded on covert Israeli cargo planes and flown to Iran. The Iranians officially blasted the Jews as the scum of the world and called for the destruction of Israel but they happily paid Israel in U.S. dollars for the shipments. Israel took a nice cut for its services and the rest of the money was then channeled to the U.S. where some went to the treasury and the rest went to Casey’s group to pay for the war in Nicaragua.

Secord was in charge of buying weapons for the Contras and used the money from the Iran sales to purchase arms on the open market. The weapons, ammunition and other supplies he purchased were then flown to CIA bases in Central America on CIA cargo planes. But the CIA cargo planes did not return empty as the CIA is the biggest drug corporation in the world and its airplanes were loaded with drugs like cocaine and marijuana from Central and South America. The airfield at Mena in Arkansas next to the border of Oklahoma was the hub for the CIA air operation.^[6] Governor Bill Clinton was informed of the operation and was given special treatment and compensation by the CIA through its intermediaries. ^[7]

One of the kingpins of the Mena operation was Adler Berriman “Barry” Seal (1939-1986). He was hired as a young man by the CIA to be a pilot during the 1961 Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba. After that he enlisted in the Army Special Forces and from there went to work for TWA and eventually became one of its youngest pilots. An undercover federal agent lured him into a trap where he was asked to fly explosives to anti-Castro forces in Mexico, and because of his arrest, he was fired from the airline. He then became an “aviation consultant” specializing in Central and South America which was a cover up for drug smuggling. Most likely this business was a CIA front, because Seal later became heavily involved in CIA operations in and around Mena. By 1980, he was working for the Medellin Cartel in Columbia and at the same time he became an informer for the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA).

During this time he was one of the top players of the Mena operation and worked out deals with Governor Clinton to protect the operations. But one can never trust the CIA and his work as an undercover agent for the DEA was leaked to the press.  At the time there were legal proceedings in Washington D.C. with Seal as the star witness, who testified that the Medellin cartel was working hand in hand with the Sandinistas in Nicaragua. This was very important to President Reagan and his White House staff because they wanted Congress to lift the ban on weapon sales to the Contras. It was obvious that Seal knew too much and he was shot to death on February 19, 1986 in his car on a street in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The blame was laid on hit men from the Medellin cartel, but in these murky waters of assassins, it was most likely a job ordered by the CIA because dead men do not talk.

MORE MURDERS

CIA director William Casey was ordered to testify before a Senate panel on December 15, 1986, about the CIA’s involvement in the Iran/Contra affair. But he suffered two seizures the day before the hearings and was taken to the hospital where they operated on “malignant tumor” and died twenty four hours after the congressional hearings began. The people running the CIA have no loyalty or sentimentality, and once the truth threatens to come out, they immediately call their assassins in the form of a street thug, gunman or a medical doctor.

CIA director William Colby (1973-1976) had a long history in intelligence work and had been the CIA station chief in Saigon, Vietnam from 1959-1962 and then was sent back in 1968 to take charge of the “Phoenix Project” which was designed to identify and kill or capture the Vietnamese men and women fighting for the communists. At times whole villages were wiped out in mass executions. According to official U.S. figures some 81,000 Viet Cong were captured and 226,000 killed. Colby came back to the U.S. in 1971 and in 1973 became director of the CIA. By 1996 Colby had become a liability for the CIA, since he had written a book and exposed things that the CIA didn’t want the American people to know.

The ghost of the Army chemist Frank Olson had been haunting the CIA since 1975, when the U.S. Government was forced in a settlement to pay $750,000 to Frank Olson’s family. Frank had been working in the top secret special operations at Fort Dietrick, Maryland, on biological warfare and the mind control program MKULTRA. For some reason the CIA decided that Frank had become a liability and he was given a dose of LSD which made him mentally unstable. He was sent to New York to be treated in a hospital and stayed at a hotel together with his CIA handlers. On November 28, 1953 he was thrown out the window from the tenth floor and died on impact with the ground.

In 1994 his son Eric Olson had his father exhumed, and when his remains were taken for an autopsy, it was discovered that he had trauma to his head before he had been thrown out the window. In 1996 the district attorney of Manhattan opened an investigation and a grand jury was called. William Colby was murdered the same day that the Manhattan district attorney got permission to set up a grand jury. Colby was an avid outdoors man and decided to take a canoe trip at Rock Point, Maryland, on a cold day on April 28, 1996 during which he lost control and was thrown out and drowned. This was a typical CIA assassination where a man is taken out on a boat and then held under the water until he is dead. Then the canoe was released to drift and the body was thrown in the water. Remember, dead men do not talk.

THE IRAN/CONTRA COVER IS BLOWN

In 1985 the Mossad contacted Vice Admiral Poindexter and told him that moderate Iranians were opposed to the current regime in Iran and wanted to secure weapons from  the United States to be used in the war against Iraq. If the U.S. helped the moderate Iranians, in time they would overthrow Ayatollah Khomeini and Iran would once more come into the sphere of the United States.”

Remember that arms sales had been flowing for some time to Iran but during this time a number of Americans had been taken hostage in Lebanon by groups controlled by Iran. Every night on American television the pictures of the hostages were shown and their story was told and how many days they had been held captive. Thus, the Jewish controlled media was building pressure on the Reagan administration to do something. With this two pronged attack on the administration, President Reagan caved in and agreed to make a deal. Robert McFarlane flew in to Tehran on a CIA aircraft to start negotiations. He offered the sale of 2,000 TOW antitank missiles, 18 Hawk missile batteries and 200 spare parts for the Hawk batteries. The Iranians agreed and paid 30 million dollars for the deal.

Manucher Ghorbanifar was an Iranian international weapons dealer and friend of the Iranian prime minister who was used in securing the weapons on the open market, picked up by Israeli aircraft and flown into Iran. Oliver North was not happy at having Israel as a partner because too much money was siphoned off by the Israeli government. North suggested to Poindexter that the NSA would have a $15 million markup, while Ghorbanifar would get a 41% markup. The Iranians became upset by having to pay the inflated prices but accepted the deal since the war was not going well for them. These shipments continued from May to November 1986.

What the Reagan administration did not know was that if you double cross Jewish interests, there is a price to pay. On November 3, 1986, the Lebanese magazine “Ash-Sera” exposed the American arms dealing with Iran as the Mossad had leaked the information to them. This could not have come in a more inconvenient time for the Reagan administration since the Nicaraguan Sandinista government had shot down a C-123 transport plane over Nicaragua. This was a former U.S. Air Force cargo plane that had been transferred to the CIA black fleet of aircraft. The two pilots were killed in the crash, but Eugene Hasenfus, a former U.S. marine and CIA contractor survived. The CIA had specified that no parachutes could be used on clandestine flights since they didn’t want survivors but Hasenfus had disregarded this order and parachuted to safety. He and the weapons intended for the Contras were paraded by Nicaraguan soldiers and shown for many nights on American television.

REAGAN ADMINISTRATION SPIN

White House Chief of Staff Donald Regan pointed the blame to Robert McFarlane as a renegade government official who was totally responsible for this sordid affair. McFarlane became angry and refused to be the “fall guy” and sent a message to Poindexter that he was going to sue the government for libel and not tolerate the lies from Regan. McFarlane had forgotten that one doesn’t mess with the CIA, and according to police reports, he tried to commit suicide by taking an overdose of valium on February 9, 1987. For some reason he survived but the message was clear, “Shut up and take the punishment.” In 1988, he plead guilty in federal court to four counts of withholding information from Congress for his role in the Iran/Contra cover-up. He was sentenced to two years’ probation and a $20,000 fine. He was pardoned with the other key players in the scandal on Christmas Eve in 1992. The rule for all CIA operators is that if you are caught, do not talk, take all the blame and in time you will be bailed out.

PROTECTING PRESIDENT REAGAN

For a while it looked that President Reagan was going to go the same way that Nixon did and be forced to resign. But for some reason the World Zionist Federation decided to keep him and accept the sacrifice of the people involved who had circumvented Israel out of the profits on arms sales. Reagan was forced to respond since the Iranian government had confirmed and issued a report to the world’s media outlets, and on November 13, 1986, the great communicator spoke on prime time television from the Oval Office to defuse the political storm that his administration had caused. Here are some excerpts from his speech:

“My purpose was…to send a signal that the United States was prepared to replace the animosity between the United States and Iran with a new relationship…At the same time we undertook this initiative, we made clear that Iran must oppose all forms of international terrorism as a condition of progress in our relationship. The most significant step which Iran could take, we indicated, would be to use its influence in Lebanon to secure the release of all hostages held there.”^[8]

Oliver North was given orders to start shredding documents regarding all activities that had to do with arms sales and the support of the Contras, which he did during November 21-25^th. After he had completed this job, he was fired by President Reagan and hung out as the scapegoat. During the month of July, 1987 he was summoned to testify before Congress. Later he was indicted on 16 felony counts and went to trial in 1989. He was convicted on three counts on May 4, 1989, and sentenced July 5, 1989 to a three year suspended prison term, with two years probation, a $150,000 fine and 1,200 hours of community service. North had been cast as a strong patriotic Marine with the rank of Lt. Colonel, strongly anti-communist, a born again Christian even though he stayed in the Roman Catholic Church and with strong right wing political leanings.

Who came to the aide of Oliver North?  None other than the Jewish run ACLU. With their lawyers his conviction was vacated. The prosecution took it to the Supreme Court which refused to hear the case. All charges were summarily dismissed on September 16, 1991. Admiral John Poindexter was convicted on multiple felony counts in April, 1990 but his conviction was reversed in 1991.

Both Poindexter and Oliver North were great team players. They were willing to be convicted of master-minding the Iran/Contra affair and testify that President Reagan knew nothing about it in order to save their lives. The American people demanded justice and McFarlane, Poindexter and North were convicted. But in the end they escaped punishment and became very successful in business while the Reagan legacy was saved. In 1992 President George H.W. Bush pardoned six convicted officials: Elliott Abrams, Duane R. Clarridge, Alan Fiers, Clair George, Robert McFarlane and Caspar Weinberger.

BUT SOMEONE HAD TO DIE!

Ronald Reagan was an actor before he became a politician. On November 25, 1986, he created a Special Review Board to look into the matter of the Iran/Contra affair. Even though Reagan was under a cloud of suspicion, he appointed three men to investigate the matter. The chairman was former Senator John Tower from Texas, former Secretary of State Edmund Muskie and former National Security Adviser Brent Scowcroft. In a hearing before this commission on December 2, 1986, Reagan first admitted that he had authorized the arms sales to Iran but later he told them that he could not remember. However, in his autobiography Reagan acknowledges authorizing shipments to Israel.^[9]

John Tower	Edmund Muskie	Brent Snowcroft

The chickens reported to the fox on February 26, 1987, when the Tower commission submitted its 200 page finding. They had interviewed 80 witnesses, including the president himself and two arms dealers. Blame was laid at the feet of Oliver North, John Poindexter, Caspar Weinberger and some others. Reagan was cleared of knowing anything about the Iran/Contra affair but that he had been sloppy and should have had better control of his administration. The Democratic Congress issued their own report on November 18, 1987, that President Reagan should have known what his national security advisers were doing.

Since William Casey was dead and all documents concerning the affair had been shredded by Poindexter and North, the wrecking crew had done its job and once again the American people were deceived by their elected leaders and civil servants. The final man to die was Senator John Tower when his airplane was sabotaged and crashed over Georgia on April 5, 1991. He was killed by the CIA in order to make sure that the corpse of the Iran/Contra affair would never again be exhumed.  After all, dead men do not talk!

PRESIDENT REAGAN’S FIX

For those of you who lived during this period in the history of the United States, you will remember that Reagan was called the “Teflon President” because nothing stuck to him. Here is how Reagan mopped up the affair and reconnected with the American people. In a speech that was televised to the American people on March 4, 1987, he shared the following statements:

 “The reason I haven’t spoken to you before now is this: You deserve the truth. And as frustrating as the waiting has been, I felt it was improper to come to you with sketchy reports, or possibly even erroneous statements, which would then have to be corrected, creating even more doubt and confusion. There’s been enough of that.

First, let me say I take full responsibility for my own actions and for those of my administration. As angry as I may be about activities undertaken without my knowledge, I am still accountable for those activities. As disappointed as I may be in some who served me, I’m still the one who must answer to the American people for this behavior.

A few months ago I told the American people I did not trade arms for hostages. My heart and my best intentions still tell me that that’s true, but the facts and the evidence tell me it is not. As the Tower board reported, what began as a strategic opening to Iran deteriorated, in its implementation, into trading arms for hostages. This runs counter to my own beliefs, to administration policy, and to the original strategy we had in mind.”^[10]

The tragedy is that the American people were dumbed down and easily swayed by the media. When the Iran/Contra scandal was first revealed to the American people in November of 1986, the approval rating of the president stood at 67% and then dropped to 46%. By January 1989 his approval rating had gone up to 64%. With the dismantling of the Berlin wall in 1989, and the re-unification of Germany, the freedom of the East European nations from the Soviets, no one longer cared about the Iran/Contra affair. After all, President Reagan led us to victory over the communists, what more could we ask for? Did it really matter that the laws of the United States had been trampled and that people had lied under oath? Life was good.

JOB QUALIFICATIONS FOR THE FBI/CIA

Speaking different languages and having a college degree are a plus but you must also be a great liar, be tolerant of all kinds of lifestyles and cannot have any morals. Being open to alcohol, drugs and sex is especially good but being a born again Christian is not and may disqualify you.
