CONTINUATION: DEFRAUDING AMERICA
Part 3: Re: Gunther Russbacher
By Rodney Stich.
THE FRAUD DIDN'T STOP
The fraud by the Denver group inflicted billions of dollars in direct losses upon the American people. But it didn't end there. The same Denver group and others, who brought about the collapse of the Savings and Loan industry by their corrupt activities, used their Washington influence to buy back properties and other assets from Resolution Trust Corporation at ten and 20 cents on the dollar. [H: Dharma is getting even more upset! The RTC doesn't even wait for litigation to finish--they act in collusion with "the system" locally and steam-roll over everything and everyone. The RTC took control and SOLD Ekkers' home right under their noses, aided and abetted by the judicial system. It doesn't look quite as good for the players involved at this moment, however, but it is expensive to continue any kind of battle while all the card-cheats hold all the duplicated cards! Perhaps the public embarrassment will have some impact--but the property, you see, is already GONE! [And, surely enough, ex-Judge Jason Brent (Green's buddy) is the LAWYER representing the owner of the lot next door where the Ekkers were cited for "criminal trespass". When will you hear me, Dharma? I know it is hard to accept--but "facts are facts" and the game is not FAIR. However, readers, the purchaser of the "Ekker property" DID NOT GET IT FOR 10 CENTS ON THE DOLLAR--IT COST FULL GOING MARKET PRICE. Citizens don't "get a break"--only the criminals!] They made money bringing down the Savings and Loans, and made money buying the assets back, with the help of the same Washington gang. MDC bought from the RTC $750 million in loans that they had obtained from Silverado, for $150 million, making a $600 million profit. MDC Holdings defrauded Silverado out of $600 million, which was never mentioned in the "investigation" of that Savings and Loan.
None of the basic CIA operations shut down. They continued as before, with some changes due to changing circumstances, but each of the operations continues to exist.
Russbacher was cautious in divulging the secrets of CIA operations, even though he was trying to blow the whistle on some of its worst and most damaging activities against the United States. As time passed, and with my constant probing into different areas of CIA activities, and as Russbacher discovered that other CIA operatives gave me information which he had withheld from me, he gradually gave me more data. In early 1993, as I learned the operational names of many of the CIA operations from other informants, including Colonel Trenton Parker, a deep-cover CIA operative and Michael Riconosciuto, a deep-cover CIA contract agent, Russbacher opened up and gave me code names and data. He stated that different divisions of groups within the CIA ran parallel operations, and had different names for similar activities.
OPERATION INTERLINK
Operation Interlink (IL) was the code name for an operations involving financial institutions, the goal of which was raising money for covert CIA activities, and laundering the funds into secret CIA offshore bank accounts.
OPERATION CYCLOPS
Operation Cyclops was the name used by the Pegasus unit of the CIA, and was an overview over most other Pegasus operations. It included all types of covert financial operations including proprietaries involved in the HUD and the Savings and Loan programs and bogus bearer bonds, among others.
OPERATION MOTH (MH)
Operation Moth was one of the Agency divisions' names for the operation involving looting of the Savings and Loans.
OPERATION GOLD BUG (GB)
Operation Gold Bug involved the overall scheme of generating money through various financial activities. Under Operation Gold Bug were a number of other operations. Operation Gold Bug was the development of national and international financial programs to develop sources of income which would be available on a regular basis to support and carry out covert CIA activities domestically and internationally. Russbacher incorporated and operated over a dozen CIA proprietaries, and the tactics used to loot companies of their assets. When used against Savings and Loans the ONI section of the CIA for which Russbacher worked gave it the name of Operation Moth. The highly secret Pegasus group within the CIA gave this program the name of Operation Gold Bug. The intent of both groups and operations was to loot the assets of targeted financial or other institutions and people. The overall operation that targeted other companies was called Operation Gold Finger.
REFERRING TO JUDICIAL INVOLVEMENT
Russbacher added: "More than fifty percent of the judges are compromised through secret bribes or retainers". The bribes take many forms. Sometimes through gambling chips at Atlantic City or Las Vegas casinos, in the form of gratuities, sometimes through second and third parties, inheritances, anything that will whitewash the funds in the property that is given to the judges or trustees. Russbacher stated that these funds are often hidden offshore in accounts. Russbacher added:
Let's say it is property or stock certificates. We'll have phony documentation set up and put in place and show where the stock certificates or the property or the legacy come from. Even if we have to create our own trust to do it with. It's not like we don't have legally capable counsel available. Now understand this, too, these judges received this heavy money regardless of the fact that they have cases pending or not. They get paid whether they do something for us or not.
OPERATION THUNDER (T)
Operation Thunder (for another name) for a particular CIA division's covert financial operations, and as the others, would include the HUD and Savings and Loan fraud, bogus bearer bonds, and other financial schemes. He stated that the home base for Operation Thunder was New Orleans, and was initially located in a private CIA proprietary. He stated that today the cover for the operations was Telemark Communications, one of the biggest companies in the United States, and a CIA proprietary. As with other CIA proprietaries, the top management consisted of Agency people, who had liaison with CIA field people who were contract officers or agents, and particularly attorneys and law firms.
Russbacher described the heading sheet on correspondence pertaining to Operation Thunder. On the very top of the sheet would be the words:
Operations Memorandum.
Classification: Top Secret: SOG-SI/6
Copy Number: 4 [or whatever number of copies were authorized]
SOG/ALPHA/-DETACHMENT TS-TS-Q/SOG-D/F:701FP399689
Staging Area: New Orleans, Louisiana
OPERATION BLUE THUNDER (BT)
Operation Blue Thunder related to destruction of companies and wealthy individuals, including taking companies over or forcing them into Chapter 7 or 11. After taking them over, the CIA would take over the corporation's license rights. Basically, it destroyed companies and then picked up the assets at fire sale prices. The judicial scheme inflicted upon me, forcing me into Chapter 11, and then seizing my assets, would be an example of Operation Blue Thunder.
OPERATION FOUNTAIN PEN (FP)
Operation Fountain Pen started with Bank of Zaire, a CIA proprietary, buying banks, corporations and other financial institutions with bogus bearer bonds, treasury bonds, or duplicate issues.
BOGUS BEARER BONDS
Several of the covert CIA operations used bogus or duplicate bearer bonds, including treasury bonds, that had a twenty or twenty-five year due date, and were used as collateral for multimillion-dollar loans. After obtaining the loans and laundering the money into other secret proprietaries or offshore financial vehicles, the companies would often file Chapter 7 or Chapter 11. The lender would then think it was covered by the bonds given as collateral, which they would not discover to be bogus until many years later. In some cases the CIA proprietary would make interest payments on the loans secured by the phony bonds, and pay the periodic interest payment. The primary criminal act in those cases would be using forged certificates to obtain a loan.
AIDING AND ABETTING BY STATE OFFICIALS
Russbacher stated that in 1986 some of the CIA financial institutions he operated were compromised, that connections between the secret proprietaries and members of Congress were in danger of being exposed, and the decision was made to shut them down. He described how Justice Department and CIA personnel conspired with Missouri officials to remove all traces from the state records that the CIA corporations had been incorporated as Missouri Corporations.
Referring to the shutdown of several CIA proprietaries linked to the 1986 downing of a CIA aircraft over Nicaragua, the famous "Hasenfus" flight, Russbacher stated: "All records that were available to the Department of State or to the [state's] Attorney General's office have been seized and or closed, to where the public cannot get hold of them".
WHERE IS THE MONEY?
Losses of approximately half a trillion dollars have been the estimated direct cost. But where did the money go? It has never been sought, or located. The theft of $2 billion by Lincoln, or $2 billion by Silverado, is a long way from $200 to $500 billion. Neither Congress nor the Justice Department has made any attempt to determine where this huge amount of money went. Finding it would relieve the American public of staggering debt load that is affecting the American economy. There is no way that such a huge sum simply evaporated without any trace.
My CIA informants tell me that the majority of the funds looted by the CIA, organized crime, and such groups as MDC Holdings and various subsidiaries in Denver, have been laundered into offshore financial institutions and hidden in the United States. Some of the funds that have gone overseas has returned to the United States through foreign shell corporations, buying up vast quantities of U.S. real estate and assets. [H: Yes and LOTS moves right through and under your noses as Patriot groups spring up and ongoing drug funds (and drugs) are funneled in on a continuing basis. There are many programs which handle such funds, turning them into "gold" trusts, placement offshore, etc. Much from "off shore" is funneled through trading programs, etc. There are, however, typical avenues of moving such funds--right through programs set up by such as Gary Anderson who utilized Gritz's SPIKE seminars as cover. Green, of course, worked in conjunction with those "dudes" but blew their cover so he is not too popular. Now they have incorporated Binder of US&P in their "cover" show-and-tell. This, however, moves right back a LONG WAY "UPSTAIRS" TO VERY IMPORTANT PERSONAGES AND ORGANIZATIONS--who do not want this operation uncovered. When you move OUTSIDE the "agency" and into RIPPING OFF THE BIG BROTHER as have these ones--IT GETS VERY, VERY DANGEROUS! I would guess more like it would be a scenario allowing Russbacher to "go free" in order to catch the thieves of thieves--not the "Institute" or Ekker-Ekker!! The person "rubbed-out" and reported earlier in this writing is a direct take-out because he was involved in "drug" doings--not publication of forbidden material--and you can place your bets on it; it is going to work out that it also involves ones attached, or so they say--to Bo Gritz. I don't think he is going to like that very much! Gosh, it seems the thieves just can't trust the thieves anymore! Am "I" somehow accusing Bo Gritz of unethical behavior? Gosh no--I KNOW BETTER THAN TO DO SUCH A THING!! HE ALREADY DOESN'T LIKE ME OR MY "LIZARD" IMITATOR, DORIS. Well, she knows less than nothing--so I think we'll leave it there. Sometimes, readers, it just doesn't pay to fool around with "Mother Nature". Reality of God's presence comes harder to some than to others!]
ONE OF THE PLACES WHERE
THE MONEY IS HIDDEN
Shortly before this book went to press several of my informants gave me information which, upon cross-checking, indicated that large amounts of the hidden money can be found in 17-year TRUSTS recorded with the County Recorder in Baca County, Colorado, in the little town of Springfield. They tell me that there are over 1,500 TRUSTS, many of them set up by Denver attorney Norman Brownstein, a key member of the Denver group. Most of the actual funds associated with these TRUSTS are located outside the United States, for protection, in the event their location is found. [H: I'm sure a big effort has by now been made to accomplish that move. Does anyone find it "coincidental" that our own friends and colleagues, Green and Anderson, had stashed accounts in Colorado where diverted CLC funds flowed into accounts under the name, one of many, WE-THE-PEOPLE? Well, in the overall, except that Gary did get away with a $60 million operation covered by the CIA a few years back, Anderson is a self-greedy (along with his buddies) small-time (relatively) crook.]
OCTOBER SURPRISE
[H: I hope you are finding all this "interesting"--I can promise you that my scribe has never had such a grand day of revelation since she came to work for me! Let's just see what the "insider" has to say about that "October Surprise"]
"October Surprise" is the name given to a scheme that corrupted the 1980 presidential elections. The scheme included payment of bribes to enemies of the United States who were holding 52 American hostages as prisoners who were seized at the American Embassy in Teheran on November 4, 1979. Many of the participants in this scheme were rewarded with key positions in the government of the United States.
The intent of the scheme was to alter the presidential elections to bring about the defeat of President Jimmy Carter and the election of presidential nominee Ronald Reagan, and this was accomplished by causing the continuing imprisonment of the hostages. By blocking the release of the American hostages during Carter's presidency many Americans would be displeased with Carter for his inability to bring about their release, increasing the chances that Carter would be defeated at the polls. This plot was the genesis to the Iran and Contra affairs, and indirectly to the Inslaw, BNL, and Iraqgate scandals, among others.
Shiite Muslim militants attacked and seized the United States Embassy in Teheran, taking the Americans hostage. They were then subjected to 444 days of brutal conditions, including mock executions. If this scheme hadn't been executed the Americans would have been released months earlier.
The attack upon the American Embassy occurred several months after the Shah of Iran was overthrown in 1979, and power seized by the Ayatollah Khomeini. The attack was precipitated in part by the United States granting to the deposed Shah of Iran entry into the United States for treatment of a life-threatening cancer condition.
Months of negotiations to effect the release of these hostages went on between the government of the United States, under President Jimmy Carter, and the government of Iran. Early in 1980 the U.S. tried a military mission to free the hostages, but this failed miserably in the Iranian desert While the U.S. military was preparing another rescue try, and simultaneously negotiating to obtain the hostages' release, the Reagan-Bush team sabotaged the efforts by making public the hostage-rescue plans and warning the American people that Carter was preparing to exchange arms for hostages. One effect of these tactics was that the Iranians dispersed the American prisoners throughout Iran, making rescue all but impossible.
LOSING THE ELECTION IF THE
HOSTAGES WERE FREED
Analysts in the Reagan-Bush team estimated they would lose the election to President Jimmy Carter if the American hostages were released prior to the November 11, 1980, election. It was felt that the swing vote would then favor Carter.
After the military rescue mission failed, the United States renewed the negotiations for the release of the 52 American hostages. The Iranians demanded that President Carter release U.S. military equipment that had been ordered and paid for by the Shah of Iran, before Iran would release the hostages.
Simultaneously and secretly, members of the Reagan-Bush team met with Iranian factions, offering bribes in the form of money and U.S. arms if the Iranians continued the imprisonment of the American hostages until after the November 11, 1980, elections and the January 20, 1981, presidential inauguration.
Despite the pressures against an arms-for-hostages swap, in mid-1980 President Carter secretly agreed to the terms dictated by Iran. Carter agreed to exchange $150 million in previously ordered and prepaid military equipment in exchange for the release of the hostages. The prospects for the release of the hostages were favorable, as Iran's need for the military equipment increased dramatically in September 1980. Iraqi President Saddam Hussein attacked Iran, which required large increases in Iran's military equipment and supplies.
SABOTAGING THE UNITED STATES
OF AMERICA
While Reagan and his camp were charging Carter with arms-for-hostages negotiations, the Reagan team, headed by former OSS officer William Casey, entered secret negotiations with Iranian factions, seeking to continue the imprisonment of the hostages.
A series of secret meetings were held between the Reagan-Bush team and the Iranian factions in various European cities, with the final meeting occurring on the October 19, 1980 weekend in Paris. The Iranians demanded that either Ronald Reagan or George Bush personally appear in Paris and sign the secret agreement. Carrying out this scheme required great secrecy and extensive cover-ups by large numbers of people in the United States and France.
VARIOUS INTERESTS WANTED
CARTER OUT
There were special-interest groups wanting President Carter removed from office. Among them was the Central Intelligence Agency, which suffered serious losses to its clandestine operations when Carter ordered the dismissal of a large number of CIA operatives in 1977. This wholesale firing of Agency employees became known as the "October Massacre".
George Bush, who had CIA connections since the late 1950s, had been Director of the Central Intelligence Agency in 1976, until Carter replaced him with Stansfield Turner after Carter assumed the presidency.
The Reagan-Bush team promised the Iranians billions of dollars of U.S. military equipment and $40 million in bribes to individual Iranians involved in the scheme. Also, to include arms merchants in the deal. Carter had refused to deal through arms merchants, and limited the shipment of arms to what had already been purchased. The much greater amount of military weapons and the bribes dwarfed the existing offer by the lawfully elected government of the United States. The $40 million bribe money reportedly came from the Committee to Reelect the President.
The plan worked. When the Americans went to the polls on November 11, 1980, the hostages were still in prison. Included in Reagan campaign rhetoric was his promise to get tough with the Iranians, telling the American people he would never negotiate with terrorists. Simultaneously, his team was engaging in treason and bribing the Iranians to continue the imprisonment of the hostages.
Reagan was inaugurated President of the United States on January 20, 1981, and within an hour of his inauguration the Iranians allowed an aircraft to leave Teheran Airport with all but one of the 52 American hostages on board. The flight was prearranged to take off from Teheran's airport immediately after the Iranians knew that Reagan and Bush had taken their oath of office.
"THE DEAL IS OFF"
When a White House aide told President Reagan that one of the hostages had not been released, Reagan was heard [This response was heard by Barbara Honegger, a member of Reagan's White House staff.] to respond: "Tell the Iranians that the deal is off if that hostage is not freed".
President Reagan and Vice President Bush held widely televised homecoming celebrations for the American hostages, saying all the right things about the sufferings the hostages endured. Neither the hostages, who endured months of extra imprisonment, nor the American people, knew how the Reagan-Bush team and the CIA had conspired to continue the imprisonment of these victims.
It took the cooperation of many people in the United States and Europe to carry out the scheme. Israel's Mossad, acting as well-paid middle men in the transfer of the arms from U.S. military warehouses to Iran via Israel, played a major role. Without their cooperation the scheme probably would not have worked.
It also required the cooperation of the French Secret Service and the government of France, who provided security for the secret Paris meetings. It required the cooperation of officials and people in the Central Intelligence Agency; the U.S. Department of Justice, including the FBI, Secret Service, U.S. Attorneys; the Department of State; many members of Congress; among others. It also required the media to cover up and engage in disinformation.
[H: If you people who have not given thought to obtaining DEFRAUDING AMERICA, I suggest your rethink your actions. I am not going to offer it ALL because I want you to GET IT. You will get the new updated version of the book
--or, for you who got an original first printing copy--I will ask permission to offer you readers the "updates" later. If you want as much of a revelation in another category, I ask you to get Stich's book, UNFRIENDLY SKIES. And yes indeed,
I am going to PUSH these books, including the "Committee of 300" until every possible person has gotten them!!! MOREOVER, I SHALL CONTINUE TO BADGER, UNCOVER AND HOUND THE PLAYERS IN THE EVIL GAME
--UNTIL THEY KEEP THEIR AGREEMENTS WITH 'COMMAND'. BELIEVE ME, SIRS, IT IS FAR EASIER TO "DO BUSINESS" WITH THIS COMMAND ACCORDING TO AGREEMENTS, THAN THE ALTERNATIVES!]
DAMAGE CONTROL
To protect the incoming Reagan-Bush team and the many federal officials and others who took part in the October Surprise scheme, the Reagan-Bush team placed people, including those implicated in the treasonous activities, in control of key federal agencies and the federal court. Consisting mostly of attorneys, some were appointed to the federal bench. William Casey was appointed to head the Central Intelligence Agency. Edwin Meese, Reagan's campaign manager, was appointed to U.S. Attorney General, insuring that there would be no prosecution of the group and, as it turned out, in a position to silence any whistleblower or informant through misuse of Justice Department facilities. Attorneys who had participated in the scheme were appointed judges in the federal courts, including Lawrence Silberman and Lowell Jensen. Organized crime never had it so good.

CONTINUATION: DEFRAUDING AMERICA,
Part 4: Re: Gunther Russbacher
By Rodney Stich
QUOTING:
OCTOBER SURPRISE:
THE FACTS SLOWLY SURFACED
Although the details of the secret agreement were known throughout Europe, the establishment media in the United States kept the lid on the scandal. But the facts started coming out. A Miami Herald article (April 1987) described statements made by a CIA operative, Alfonso Chardy, describing a secret meeting in early October 1980 between Richard Allen, Laurence Silberman, Robert McFarlane, and Iranian factions. Richard Allen was foreign policy adviser to Reagan and Robert McFarlane was an aide to Senator John Tower [H: "Dead" John Tower! Ouch...] on the Senate Armed Services Committee.
In 1987, Bani Sadr, the President of Iran during the hostage negotiations, wrote a book published in Europe (European publisher Eagleburger), describing his knowledge of the October Surprise scheme. The information he had received as President disclosed the secret agreement with the Americans, even though he was kept out of the loop by Hashemi Rafsanjani, one of Khomeini's chief lieutenants and later Speaker of the Iranian Parliament.
In 1988 Playboy magazine published an in-depth article on the October Surprise scheme. In what would become a pattern of killings that coincidentally protected high U.S. officials, one of the authors, Abbie Hoffman, was killed shortly after bringing the article to Playboy. The eight-page article was entitled, "An Election Held Hostage", detailing many of the events surrounding the scheme. The facts were sufficient to warrant the government and non-government checks and balances to conduct further investigations. This never occurred.
A former member of the Reagan-Bush election team and later a member of the White House staff, Barbara Honegger, authored the 1989 book, October Surprise, Tudor Publishing Company, based upon knowledge she gained as an insider and subsequent investigator. Honegger left the Reagan camp when she became disillusioned with certain practices. Living in Monterey, California, she and a friend, Rayelan Dwyer, worked together researching the October Surprise story. Rayelan was the widow of a former professor and dean of the physics department at the Naval Postgraduate school in Monterey, California. She later married a deep-cover, high ranking officer in the Office of Naval Intelligence, who was assigned to the Central Intelligence Agency, Gunther Russbacher. Unknown to her at the time, her new husband played a key role in the October Surprise operation. Ironically, she initially found out from me about her new husband's role in the matter that she and her friend, Honegger, had investigated. More about this in later pages.
In 1991 Bani Sadr authored another book describing the October Surprise operation, this time published in the United States, MY TURN TO SPEAK, subtitled Iran, the Revolution and Secret Deals with the United States. Brassey's (US). On April 15, 1991, Frontline had a television show addressing the October Surprise, which was followed the next day by an article in the Op-Ed section of the New York Times written by Gary Sick, describing his knowledge of October Surprise. Sick authored a book published in 1991 that copied Barbara Honegger's title, October Surprise (Random House). Both October Surprise books relied upon statements made by dozens of people that were part of the operation or witnesses to it, who had nothing to gain and much to lose by disclosing what they knew. [H: You will find that we, too, wrote quite a bit on the subject at that time with quite a lot of focus on one Brenneke.]
A ten-page data-packed Esquire article entitled "October Surprise" detailed many of the events occurring in the October Surprise scheme.
Ari Ben-Menashe, a former member of Israel's secret agency, the Mossad, described in his 1991 book, Profits of War, the role he and the Mossad played in October Surprise, including meetings that he attended in Europe at Madrid, Barcelona, and Paris.
Ben-Menashe was heavily involved in various secret activities with the Mossad and the CIA, and was one of the first to expose the Iran-Contra activities, for which October Surprise served as the genesis. Ben-Menashe stated that he was a member of the Mossad's advance team working with the French government, which arranged meetings between William Casey, George Bush, and the Iranian factions, including the meetings on the October 19, 1980, weekend in Paris.
Ben-Menashe related that he and others in the Israeli team stayed at the Paris Hilton Hotel meeting with various members of the Iranian factions while waiting for George Bush to arrive from the United States. He stated that on Sunday, October 19, at approximately 11 a.m., the Ayatollah Mehdi Karrubi and his body guards appeared at a room on the upper floor of the Hotel Ritz, where Israelis and French intelligence agencies were waiting for Bush to arrive. They were followed several minutes later by George Bush and William Casey entering the room. The meeting lasted about ninety minutes, during which a final agreement was reached for the Iranians to be given money and arms in exchange for the Iranians holding the 52 American hostages until after the November 1980 presidential election and after the January 1981 presidential inauguration.
JUSTICE DEPARTMENT OBSTRUCTION
OF JUSTICE
CIA contract agent Richard Brenneke testified in U.S. District Court at Denver in 1988 to the following facts on behalf of another CIA contract agent, Heinrich Rupp. The purpose of the testimony was to show that Brenneke's friend, Rupp, was a CIA contract agent (as was Brenneke), and that the offenses for which Rupp was being charged were offenses committed under orders of the CIA. Justice Department prosecutors had charged Rupp with money offenses at Aurora Bank in the Denver area.
During Brenneke's testimony he described other CIA activities including his role in the October 19, 1980, weekend flights to Paris, in which Brenneke and Rupp both took part, and that he saw George Bush and Donald Gregg in Paris on the October 19, 1980, weekend.
Brenneke had nothing to gain by revealing the October Surprise scheme, and much to lose if he was lying. Justice Department officials already knew of the October Surprise activities. Instead of prosecuting the guilty people in the October Surprise scheme, Justice Department officials and prosecutors responded to Brenneke's testimony by charging him with perjury for making the statements that he made to the court. This charge constituted felony persecution of an informant under federal criminal statutes (Including Title 18 U.S.C. sub: 1512 and 1513.), felony cover-up, and obstruction of justice.
The perjury trial was conducted in Portland, Oregon, where Brenneke resided. Justice Department prosecutors brought Donald Gregg, then Ambassador to South Korea, to testify that he was not in Paris on the October 19, 1980, weekend, even though the prosecutors knew that Brenneke was telling the truth and that Gregg was lying. They encouraged Gregg to lie under oath, testifying that he was swimming at a beach in Maryland with his family on that weekend. Justice Department prosecutors produced pictures of Gregg and his family, in bathing suits, on the beach in bright sunshine. They knew the snapshots that they were submitting to the court were not taken on that cold October 19th weekend. Encouraging someone to commit perjury is the crime of subornation of perjury.
Brenneke's attorney called a witness from the weather bureau who testified that the sky was overcast, not sunny, during that entire weekend. October 19th is hardly the time of the year for sunbathing at the beach in the Washington, D.C. area.
Justice Department prosecutors produced two Secret Service agents (who worked under the control of the U.S. Department of Justice), attempting to have them testify that Bush never left the Washington area during the October 19, 1980, weekend. But they were vague in their testimony, and failed to produce the Secret Service logs showing Bush's activities during a 21-hour period from Saturday afternoon to Sunday evening. The Secret Service agents could not state where Bush was from 9:25 p.m. on Saturday, October 18, until Sunday evening at 7:57. My CIA informants stated to me, as described in later pages, that several Secret Service agents were on board the BAC 111 aircraft that flew Vice President nominee George Bush to Paris during the missing 21 hours.
Secret Service records, if they are accurate, indicate that Bush gave a speech at 8:40 p.m. on Saturday, October 18, 1980, at Widener University in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, and then do not show where Bush was until Sunday night, October 19, 1980, when Bush gave a speech to the Zionist Organization of America at the Capitol Hilton Hotel, arriving an hour late. he was due to arrive at 7:30 p.m. I obtained Secret Service documents showing Bush flying into Washington National Airport at 7:35 p.m. Sunday evening.
PERJURY BY THE SECRET SERVICE?
In addition to lying about Bush's whereabouts, the Secret Service Agents testifying in Brenneke's trial withheld the fact that several Secret Service agents were on the plane that carried Bush to Paris during that October 19, 1980 weekend.
October Surprise was really a coup against the United States, involving high federal officials, including the Secret Service, Justice Department and other officials. More is stated about these secret activities in later pages, including the names of nationally known figures who were on that flight to Paris.
In response to media pressure, Senator John Tower conducted closed door hearings (1987) into the Iran-Contra affair, for which October Surprise was the genesis. Despite receiving closed-door testimony from witnesses who were present at the October Surprise meetings, the Tower Commission issued a report stating there was no evidence that it occurred.
LYING TO CONGRESS, OR CONGRESS LYING TO
THE PUBLIC--WHICH IS THE GREATER CRIME?
Outright lying, or omitting facts that distort government reports, is a federal crime, and more so when perpetrated by people in a position of trust, as were the Congressional investigators. The independent prosecutor investigations by Lawrence Walsh into Iran-Contra spent over $30 million to determine who withheld information from Congress, and numerous people were indicted for having done so. But the same members of Congress routinely engage in felony cover-ups, felony obstruction of justice, and felony distortion of government reports, making the spending of $30 million to discover who withheld information from Congress futile, and an exercise in the bizarre.
TOWER ALREADY KNEW THE TRUTH
Senator Tower already knew about the October Surprise scheme. Senator Tower and his aide in 1980, Robert McFarlane, were on the BAC 111 aircraft to Paris on the October 19, 1980 weekend. For a Senator, Tower was involved in numerous intelligence agency activities, with hands-on participation in them. CIA informant Russbacher identified Senator Tower's presence on the October 19, 1980, weekend flight to Paris. Mossad operative Ari Ben-Menashe identifies Senator Tower as being present during a secret meeting with Robert Gates and Ari Ben-Menashe, in Santiago, Chile, at the Cardoen Chemical plant in August 1988. (Cardoen was supplying Iraq with chemical weapons in coordination with the CIA.) Tower's son-in-law, Samuel Cummings, operated a CIA small-arms plant and conducted extensive dealings in Central and South America. Tower played a role in promoting this activity.
Just as in the JFK assassination, many people with knowledge of the scandal were killed or mysteriously died, and these deaths are described in a later chapter. CIA Director William Casey, who was a key party to the October Surprise scheme, suffered a stroke the morning that he was to testify before Congress, and then died several months later. [H: Oops! The papers said he died of a tumor on the brain--I don't believe EITHER ONE! YOU WOULD REALLY BE SURPRISED AT "WHO" ALL IS RUNNING AROUND "ELSEWHERE" IN QUITE FINE FETTLE. A nice new identity and a bottomless pit of spending money can be quite nice if you like to play the game and keep your mouth shut! You don't really have to stay long in Israel, either. Hey, readers, it is a good job if you can get it--it is NOT, however, such a hot job if you are on the WRONG SIDE or not high enough up the ladder. Please do NOT expect these cute little details to come out even in a tell-all volume such as this for everyone is not "crazy", you must realize. There are several "details" changed to protect both the guilty and the innocent.] Two members of Congress who were on the BAC 111 died within a month of the Frontline television show and Gary Sick's New York Times article. Former Senator John Tower was killed in a plane crash during an approach to Brunswick Airport, Georgia, on April 1, 1991. Senator John Heinz was killed four days later in a plane crash at Philadelphia on April 5, 1991. Inside the intelligence community the belief is that Casey's stroke was induced or precipitated by drugs to silence him.
USUAL CONGRESSIONAL COVER-UP.
In 1991, in response to increasing media publicity, the Senate reluctantly voted to establish a commission to "investigate" the October Surprise allegations. It then refused to vote funds to conduct the investigation, and the "investigation" fizzled.
In 1991 the House reluctantly voted to establish a committee to look into the October Surprise allegations, which was chaired by Congressman Lee Hamilton
(D-Missouri). The committee refused to have key participants testify, including CIA operatives Richard Brenneke and Heinrich Rupp, the many people listed in the two October Surprise books that gave detailed information to the authors, or any of the federal officials who were reportedly present during the secret meetings.
In 1991 and 1992, I submitted by certified mail to every Senator in the U.S. Senate, and over 200 members of the House, a forty-plus page transcript of sworn declarations by CIA operatives who were present at one or more of the secret October Surprise activities. The declarations were presented in the form of a petition under federal crime-reporting statutes requiring that they receive our testimony and evidence relating to the October Surprise (and other criminal activities that I discovered).
NO EVIDENCE NO WITNESSES CALLED
In July 1992, without calling key witnesses, the Hamilton committee released a report stating that there was no evidence that Bush was in Paris or that there was any support for the October Surprise charges. The Hamilton committee didn't obtain the testimony of any of the parties who were willing to testify that would prove the existence of the scheme and Bush's presence at the Paris meetings. The only parties that the Hamilton committee questioned (not under oath and in private) were two Secret Service agents who guarded Vice Presidential candidate Bush during the period of time when Bush was reportedly in Paris. The agents stated that Bush had not been in Paris during the October 19, 1980, weekend. In later pages it is shown that Secret Service agents were on the flight to Paris and that the Secret Service lied.
Hamilton and the other committee members had received the sworn declarations from the CIA informants that described the details of the October Surprise conspiracy. These CIA operatives knew they faced federal prosecution if they lied about the events that occurred which they witnessed.
Congressman Hamilton had close ties to President Reagan's aide, Dr. Earl Brian (who was deeply involved in the Inslaw scandal described in other chapters). Hamilton had close ties to CIA operative John Hull, who operated an arms and drug transshipment point on his ranch in Costa Rica, and who is wanted by Costa Rican authorities on drug and murder charges. Hull also had close ties to Dan Quayle while Quayle was a U.S. Senator from Indiana. Hull is being protected in the United States by CIA and Justice Department officials.
[H: Dharma sits here in shock as the realization that the stories of five years are, indeed, so. She has tried to hide from it as "just her job to type". The actuality of it all is hitting her this day, however, and she pauses to say, "God in Heaven, I didn't know it would be like this to serve God"! Do you suppose she just thought she would learn to ascend" or something? THIS IS WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOUR WORLD--DID YOU THINK GOD WOULD DO LESS THAN OFFER YOU THE TRUTH OF YOUR SITUATION? Even with the errors involved, it is sufficient unto our needs. I remind my adversaries--it would behoove you to keep your agreements and I will keep mine!]
