Darlene Novinger, Chip Tatum
By: Firestarter Date: January 14, 2019, 10:35 am
---------------------------------------------------------
In this post is information from whistleblowers Chip Tatum and
Darlene Novinger on drugs trafficking by the CIA in the 1980s,
going all the way to George H.W. Bush, his son Jeb Bush and
Oliver North .
These “whistleblowers” have claimed to have survived
assassination attempts, including blowing their cover to the
“criminals” they were spying on (in the hope that the
“criminals” would finish them off).
[B]Darlene Novinger[/B]
There were 28 whistleblowers and witnesses, including FBI
undercover agent [B]Darlene Novinger[/B], who suffered anthrax
attacks between 1994 and 1997. 14 survived and several have died
since of “cancer”. Darlene’s entire family, her husband, father,
mother were all killed, and Darlene died in July 2003 from
“cancer”.
After Novinger’s husband was murdered her files were sent to Red
Wood City, California to be shredded:
HTML http://www.stewwebb.com/2014/02/22/fbi-whistleblower-darlene-novenger-exposed-george-hw-bushs-drug-usage/
In 1982, Darlene was told by the Smatt brothers (William and
Raymond) that pharmaceutical-grade cocaine was delivered to the
office of Vice President Bush at the White House. Smatt also
told her that they had delivered prostitutes to Jeb and George
Bush Sr. when they were in Miami.
Raymond Smatt also told her that George H.W. and Jeb Bush had
used cocaine at his Miami home.
William Smatt showed Darlene personal correspondence,
photographs, and checks of Vice President Bush and his son Jeb.
Smatt told Darlene that he had provided money to the head of the
Republican Party in Florida, and that Florida politicians kept
asking him for more money.
Smatt was called by the Miami Republican Party in her presence.
Smatt screamed at them: [quote]I just gave you a couple
hundred-thousand dollars and I want this done![/quote]
After Novinger submitted her report with this information in
December 1982, an investigation was started.
In January 1983, George Bush Sr. fired his entire staff on the
South Florida Drug Task Force. Novinger assumed this was to
cover-up her report.
Novinger´s cover was blown to the “criminals” she was spying on,
she thought that they hoped they would kill her. She was also
shot at, Novinger assumed to scare her.
Listen to the June 1996 radio interview by Stew Webb with
Darlene Novinger.

[B]The Tatum chronicles[/B]
[B]Dois Gene “Chip” Tatum[/B], as a helicopter pilot for the US
Army from 1982 to 1986, was involved in massive drug smuggling
into the USA.
His passengers included: William Barr; Buddy Young; Felix
Rodriguez; Oliver North; Joe Fernandez; Manuel Noriega; Mike
Harari.
Tatum reported these illegal activities to his superiors in the
army, his handlers in the CIA, the National Security Council,
and various high ranking officials, including: George H.W. Bush;
Oliver North; Don Gregg; William Barr; Felix Rodriguez; Joe
Fernandez; Dewey Clarridge.
See the letter to Chip Tatum, signed by George H.W. Bush, that
authorises him to kill a liability, with the words “[I]If loss
of life occurs (...) you shall be exempt and protected from
prosecution[/I]”.
[IMG]
HTML https://archive.is/TA4e9/37853136f0b0ab098fe29605a377b7dc4d89d984.gif[/img]
Tatum was present at a meeting where dropping off drug money was
discussed, in the presence of: Manuel Noriega; William Barr
(associated with CIA proprietary Southern Air Transport and
later US attorney general); Joe Fernandez; Mike Harari; General
Gustavo Alverez. Participating in this meeting via satellite
telephone were George Bush Sr., Oliver North, and (then governor
of Arkansas) William Jefferson Clinton.
In March 1985, Tatum wrote in his “flight transcription” about
meeting Noriega, Gov. of AK (Clinton) and Barr “concerning
missing monies”.
[IMG]
HTML https://archive.is/TA4e9/d64e377a7b76624b472cf9a380e80af92954917e.gif[/img]
On 15 February 1985, Oliver North assigned Major Felix Rodriguez
to be Tatum’s local handler.
“Missions” could be ordered by any of the following: Oliver
North; Amiram Nir (former Israeli Mossad Intelligence Officer
and Advisor to Vice President Bush Sr.); Felix Rodriguez- (CIA).
On his flights to Arkansas Tatum met Dr. Dan Lasater. Lasater
was usually accompanied by plain-clothes cop Raymond “Buddy”
Young. Young later showed up in Honduras, posing as a member of
the Arkansas National Guard.
Tatum delivered cocaine and money to Arkansas, which were
labelled “donor organs”, directly to Lasater, who handed it over
to Bill Clinton. He was introduced to Governor William J.
Clinton, and his security chief, Buddy Young.
After Tatum returned to Ft. Campbell, he reported to CIA
Director Colby that he had discovered that he delivered kilos of
an off-white powdery substance and lots of cash. He later found
identical packages in Honduras containing cocaine.
Tatum telephoned Don Gregg (George H.W. Bush’s National Security
Advisor) to inform him that he was transporting large quantities
of cocaine. Gregg told him that the cocaine would be used as
evidence against the Sandinistas.
About a year later, Tatum was introduced to William Barr, Mike
Harari, and Buddy Young. Barr presented himself as an emissary
of Bush Sr. They met Felix Rodriguez for dinner at a local
German restaurant.
There was a discussion on whether they would increase the
“price” in cocaine for the guns to the Contras.
[quote]Harari: Look-one gun and 3,000 rounds of ammo is $1,200.
A kilo of product is about $1,000. We credit the Contras $1,500
for every kilo. That’s top dollar for a kilo of cocaine. It’s
equivalent to the American K-Mart special-buy four, get one
free. On our side-we spend $1,200 for a kilo and sell it for
$12,000 to $15,000. Now, that’s a profit center. And the market
is much greater for the product than for weapons. It’s just good
business sense-understand?
(...)
Young: Well, we get our ten percent right off the top and that’s
plenty. GOFUS can make it go a long way.
Harari: Who is GOFUS?
Young: Governor Clinton! That’s our pet word for him. You know
they call the President ‘POTUS’ for ‘President of the United
States.’
(...)
Harari: One camp can produce 400 keys a week. The others are
about half that. But that’s just our operation here. We have
other sources in various parts of the world. Why do you
ask?[/quote]
Tatum met General Manuel Noriega and Barr for a meeting in which
the loss of over $100 million dollars worth of drugs and cash
was discussed.
Tatum once asked Barry Seal about the cocaine being made in
Contra camps.
Seal said it was a CIA operation.
In another instance, Tatum was present when North, Rodriguez,
and Ami Nir were inspecting cocaine in a Contra camp.
North said on 30 March 1985: [quote]but he [Bush Sr.] is very
concerned about those missing monies. I think he's going to have
Jeb [Bush] arrange something out of Columbia.[/quote]
This could be a “subtle" reference to the later assassination of
Barry Seal by members of the Medellin Cartel in early 1986.
Bill Cooper and Buzz Sawyer were shot down in Nicaragua and
killed. Their associate Eugene Hasenfus was captured by the
Sandinistas.
Three months later Barry Seal was killed outside a half-way
house in Louisiana.
In 1988, Ami Nir was killed.
In 1989, General Gustavo Alverez was killed.
In 1991, Contra leader and overseer of the cocaine kitchens
Enrique Bermudez was killed.
Buddy Young became director of Region 6 of FEMA based in Denton,
Texas.
In March 1986, Tatum was involuntarily recruited by Lt. Col.
Oliver North into a Special Operations group named Pegasus. He
would be working directly for President Reagan. Tatum was paid
$43,394.40 in April 1986, given a medical discharge and reported
to his new assignment in May 1986.
During the next few years, Tatum was tasked by Bush Sr. with the
“neutralisation” of: in 1988 a Mossad agent, in 1989 an army
Chief of Staff, in 1989 the President of a third world country,
and in 1991 the leader of a revolutionary force in Central
America.
In 1992, Tatum was ordered to “neutralise” an American citizen.
Tatum refused and decided to leave the Black Operations unit.
When Tatum told Colby of his decision, Colby said he can’t just
walk away. Tatum replied that he had placed film and tapes in
strategic locations around the world to insure his safety.
In May 1996, Dois Gene Tatum was locked up in the Hillsborough
County Jail on a treason charge, but the authorities didn’t give
any information.

In my next post in this thread, I’ll present more information on
Tatum and William Barr...
#Post#: 3202--------------------------------------------------
Tatum, Reed, Rodney Stich - William Barr and Trump
By: Firestarter Date: January 15, 2019, 11:58 am
---------------------------------------------------------
It’s amazing that every time Donald Trump replaces somebody on
his team, the new person is even worse than the scumbag that’s
replaced...
On 7 December 2018, President Donald announced that he would
nominate William Pelham Barr for Attorney General. From 1991 to
1993 he had already been Attorney General in the George Bush Sr.
administration.
William Barr is a particularly sordid case. As George H.W.
Bush’s most notorious insider, and as AG from 1991 to 1993, Barr
stonewalled several investigations into CIA abuses; including
BCCI and BNL CIA drug money laundering.
When George H.W. Bush became CIA Director in 1976, Barr joined
the CIA’s “legal office” and worked alongside CIA criminals like
Theodore “Ted” Shackley, Felix Rodriguez, and Thomas Clines, who
were involved in the Phoenix Program and Golden Triangle
narco-trafficking.
Barr was an important player in the Iran-Contra operation,
simultaneously managing the operation while also “fixing” the
legal end…
Whistleblower Rodney Stich, in his books “[I]Drugging America: A
Trojan Horse[/I]” and “[I]Defrauding America: Dirty Secrets of
the CIA and other Government Operations[/I]”, exposed how these
operatives participated in many criminal operations during the
Bush and Clinton presidencies. William Barr used the name
“Robert Johnson”.
Stich wrote: [quote]before William Barr came to the Justice
Department, he was an attorney with the Washington law firm of
Shaw Pittman Potts & Trowbridge. This law firm represented BCCI
for several years…Barr’s former law firm also represented B.
Francis Saul II, a director and powerful shareholder in
Financial General Bankshares, Inc. Financial later became First
American Bankshares, a covert BCCI operation…Further, Barr had
been legal counsel for the CIA, the same agency that was heavily
involved with BCCI corrupt activities. He was CIA counsel during
the time that George Bush was Director of the CIA.
(…)
Terry Reed had been in frequent telephone contact with the man
he knew as Robert Johnson. Johnson directed the drug trafficking
and drug money laundering, the training in Arkansas of Contra
pilots and fighters, and authorized Reed to set up the CIA
proprietary in Mexico. At a later date, Reed learned that Robert
Johnson was really William Barr, appointed by President George
Bush to be Attorney General of the United States.[/quote]
When the CIA and the Justice Department connections and cover-up
of BCCI were exposed by the Congressman Henry Gonzalez, then-FBI
Director William Sessions (not related to departing attorney
general Jeff Sessions) promised an investigation. This prompted
Attorney General Barr, to remove Sessions on trumped-up ethics
charges:

BBCI, Bush, BNL, Kissinger, P2
By: Firestarter Date: January 16, 2019, 11:05 am
---------------------------------------------------------
George W. Bush had important business relationships with the
Saudi multibillionaire Sheikh Khalid bin Mahfouz; Osama bin
Laden's long-term financial sponsor and banker to the king. In
1998, pathological liar, former CIA Director James Woolsey even
claimed that Sheikh Mahfouz's sister is one of the wives of
Osama bin Laden.
George W. Bush was in business with 9 associates of Mahfouz,
including 7 men associated with Harken: Dr. Hartmann, Sheikh's
Bakhsh, Adham, Khalil and Khalifa, Bahrain deal-maker Michael
Ameen and Jackson Stephens of Little Rock. Other individuals
connected to both Bush and Mahfouz are Sami Baarma of the
Carlyle Group and James Bath of Arbusto.
Sheikh Mahfouz's banking syndicate performed major CIA-backed
banking operations for CIA assets as Osama bin Laden, Saddam
Hussein, Manuel Noriega and other drug trafficking generals in
Pakistan. Much of this is documented in the 1992 US
Congressional testimony of Senator John Kerry.
The network of Mahfouz-connected banks included the Bank of
Credit and Commerce International (BCCI).
BBCI used secret accounts for illegal arms sales to Iran. For
this task InterMaritime bank’s (another bank controlled by
Mahfouz) president Bruce Rappaport partnered with notorious
drugs trafficker Oliver North.
In 1998, Secretary of State Madeleine Albright told the Saudi
Arabian Defence Minister, Prince Sultan, that Mahfouz had
channelled tens of millions of dollars into terrorist accounts
in London and New York.
The Saudi Bin Laden Group is partners with Mahfouz in the Saudi
Investment Corporation (SICO). In the late 1980's, SICO with the
BCCI-controlled National Bank of Oman supported the heroin
producing mujahedeen in Afghanistan. Arranging SICO's financing
of Osama bin Laden were the top executives of InterMaritime
Bank, Alfred Hartmann and Bruce Rappaport, joined by the
infamous deceased CIA director, William Casey.
In 1987, vice-president of InterMaritime Bank of Geneva and New
York, Dr. Alfred Hartmann, arranged a $25 million investment
into George W. Bush's Harken Oil and Gas.
Hartmann was also the managing director of the joint venture
between Union Bank of Switzerland (UBS) and BCCI, Banque de
Commerce et de Placements (BCP) in Geneva. It was BCP that
financed Harken. This deal was originally set-up by billionaire
Bush and Clinton donor, Jackson Stephens from Little Rock.
Sheikh Abdullah Bakhsh was a major shareholder in the BCCI until
its 1992 collapse and a major investor in Stephens' own Worthen
National Bank. Sheikh Bakhsh's took a 20.8% stake in Harken by
buying 3.5 million shares.
Sheikh Adham and his successor as Saudi Intelligence Director,
Abdul Khalil, for BCCI arranged the hostile take-over of
Washington DC’s largest bank, Financial General Bankshares, that
was renamed First American Bankshares. This deal was performed
with the pivotal assistance of Jackson Stephens.
Ed Rogers, who served as a political director for George Bush
Sr. left his White House position to start a "consulting firm"
that within a few weeks received $600,000 from Kamal Adham.
In 1985, Mahfouz's Saudi National Commercial Bank (NCB) loaned
Khashoggi $35 million dollars to finance the illegal sale of
weapons to Iran, at the behest of Oliver North.
One of Kamel Adham's close contacts, Adnan Khashoggi, is among
the richest men in the world. Khashoggi was the arms merchant at
the centre of the whole Iran-Contra scandal, and a long-time
friend of the bin Laden family.
Hartmann was also the chairman of the Swiss affiliate of yet
another criminal bank, the Italian Banco Nazionale del Lavoro
(BNL). According to a report by US House Banking Committee
Chairman Henry Gonzalez in 1992, BNL secured billions of dollars
in illegal weapons-directed loans from the George H.W. Bush
administration to Saddam Hussein.
NCB's top executive Sami Baarma also sits on the board of
Mahfouz's Middle East Capital Group (MECG) with Harken-investor
Sheikh Bakhsh on its board. Baarma also sits on the board of the
Carlyle Group, where George H.W. Bush was a senior advisor.
Baarma is also the CEO of the Pakistani Prime Commercial Bank
(another Mahfouz-controlled bank); with one Abdul Rahman bin
Mahfouz as an executive board member, the manager of the bin
Laden-sponsoring “charity” - Blessed Relief. In 1995, Rahman and
his brother Sultan bin Mahfouz, both NCB directors, invested $30
million dollar in Carlyle.
Until the early 1990s, Bush's friend, James Bath, was also in
multiple business ventures in the Houston area with Sheikh
Mahfouz, BCCI's largest shareholder.
Investigators found out that Mahfouz’s IC Inc., the company
related to James Bath, was at the very centre of the private
banking network supporting the Iran-Contra money laundering
set-up by Oliver North.
Another associate of Harken was the PM of Bahrain, Sheikh
Khalifah, who was also a major investor in BCCI in August 1991.
In 1992, the BBCI and Stephen’s Worthen Bank “loaned” $2 million
to the primary campaign of William Jefferson Clinton. Earlier,
Hillary Clinton and the Rose Law Firm, successfully defended
Systematics, a subsidiary of Stephens Inc.
Neither George W. Bush's Harken, nor Arbusto, were really oil
companies at all, but rather financial institutions used for
money laundering:

Between 1985 and 1990, the Atlanta branch of Banca Nazionale del
Lavoro (BNL) provided Iraq with over $4 billion in unreported
loans. A number of the imports from the US were guaranteed by
the Export-Import Bank.
BNL was also a major participant in the Exim bank program for
Iraq. In total, the Exim bank program helped to finance the sale
of over $300 million in industrial goods to various Iraqi
Government agencies.
Former US attorney in Atlanta Robert L. Barr, who was in charge
of the BNL investigation case until April 1990, acknowledged
that considerations of foreign policy had become intertwined
with those of law enforcement and that the State Department was
involved in thwarting the BNL investigation.
Henry Kissinger, and his Kissinger Associates compadres Brent
Scowcroft and Lawrence Eagleburger, must have been aware of the
BNL loans to Iraq.
Until 1992, Kissinger was a member of BNL's international
advisory board and during the financing of Iraq through the
BNL-Atlanta office, BNL was a paying client of Kissinger
Associates. Between 1985 and June 1991, Kissinger received at
least $10,000 for each meeting of the BNL advisory board he
attended.
Kissinger claimed that he resigned from the BNL advisory board
in February 1991. In fact, 60 Minutes' reported that Kissinger
served on BNL's advisory board until his contract expired in the
summer of 1991.
When in 1969, Henry Kissinger became Nixon's national security
adviser; Lawrence Eagleburger was his executive assistant. After
working as a political adviser to NATO in Belgium, and as Deputy
Assistant Secretary in the Department of Defense, in 1973
Eagleburger rejoined Kissinger as his executive assistant.
In 1989, Eagleburger became Deputy Secretary of State. During
the early 1980's, Eagleburger promoted the use of the CCC and
Exim bank to provide financial assistance to Saddam Hussein’s
regime.
In 1971, President Nixon appointed Brent Scowcroft as his
military aide. In 1973 Kissinger chose him to be Deputy
Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs and in
1975 he succeeded Kissinger as National Security Adviser to
President Ford. Scowcroft resigned only during the Carter
administration.
Scowcroft later became President Bush Sr.'s National Security
Adviser and head of the NSC staff.
A link between Kissinger Associates, BNL and Iraq is former
economist at First Chicago Bank Alan Stoga, who in 1992 served
as a director of Kissinger Associates.
In the fall of 1989, Stoga negotiated with BCCI's
representatives over BCCI becoming a client of Kissinger
Associates. Officially BCCI never became its client, but BCCI's
secretly owned affiliate National Bank of Georgia, did become a
client of Kissinger Associates.
Other BNL advisory board members have included David
Rockefeller, former PM of Canada Pierre Trudeau (father of
current PM Justin Trudeau) and former British Minister of
Defence Lord Thornycroft:

Jeb Bush, Alberto Duque
By: Firestarter Date: January 17, 2019, 11:55 am
---------------------------------------------------------
John Ellis “Jeb” Bush, son of a Bush Sr, was partners in crime
with Alberto Duque, who financed Jeb’s $30 million real estate
development project.
Alberto Duque is the same Colombian national who laundered drug
money for the Medellin and Cali Cartels and Nicaraguan Contras,
while being president of the General Coffee Company of Colombia
and owner of City National Bank of Miami. In 1983, Duque was
convicted for fraud and sent to federal prison.
Duque hired Bush crony Don Beazley, to serve as City National
Bank's president. Beazley had previously worked for the CIA's
Nugan Hand Bank in Australia.
Former CIA director William Colby was Nugan Hand's legal
counsel.
Beazley had also been president of Great American Bank of Miami.
In 1982, this bank was indicted for drug money laundering.
Beazley also negotiated the sale of Second National Bank of
Homestead, a subsidiary of Great American, to Nugan Hand.
Jeb was appointed by father George H.W. Bush to the board of the
[I]National Republican Institute[/I], the Republican branch of
the [I]National Endowment for Democracy[/I] (NED).
Jeb Bush's relationship with City National Bank, whose other
senior director was director of the [I]Anti-Defamation
League[/I] (ADL) Foundation Leonard Abess, ensured that a large
slice of NED money flowed to Israeli security firms like
Tadiran.
In the 1980s, Jeb Bush was a liaison between daddy George
"poppy" Bush´s national security adviser, Donald Gregg, and
various Florida-based Nicaraguan and Cuban exile organisations
to support the drugs for arms pipeline to the Nicaragua Contras.
Mario Castejon, candidate for president of Guatemala, sought
funding for arms to the Contras and other “rebel” groups in
Central America, which would be labelled "[I]medical
supplies[/I]".
Another partner in crime of Jeb Bush was Miami-based lawyer Paul
Helliwell, who owned 2 CIA money laundering banks: Great
American Bank of Miami (later bought by Nugan Hand and indicted
in 1982 for drug money laundering) and Castle Bank & Trust Ltd.
of Nassau in the Bahamas.
Jeb Bush was also in business with 2 other Florida banks:
Northside Bank of Miami (owned by the Cali Cartel) and the
Popular Bank and Trust Company.
Popular Bank was once owned by Nicaragua's Anastasio Somoza but
transferred to CIA control after his assassination in 1980 by
Sandinista commandos in Paraguay. Much of the billions of
dollars that the Somoza family stole from Nicaragua ended up in
CIA-connected banks that financed Jeb's many real estate and
money laundering enterprises.
After Jeb Bush stopped working for the Texas Commerce Bank in
Venezuela in 1980, he hooked up with the Cuban-American Miami
Armando Codina, who was connected to the CIA-supported
anti-Castro Cuban exiles in Florida.
Codina helped Jeb make millions of dollars in the real estate
business and eventually launch his political career that made
him Governor. Jeb sold high-priced condos and mansions in the
Miami area to his connections in Venezuela for handsome
commissions.
One of Jeb Bush's Miami associates was Cuban terrorist Orlando
Bosch. Bosch was a key figure in CIA's Operation Condor, which
was an alliance of Latin American military dictatorships that
assassinated South American leaders that were considered enemies
of the CIA. From Caracas, Bosch helped in the October 1976
bombing of Cubana Airlines flight 455, which killed 73
passengers and crew. The Cubana bombing was discussed at a 1976
meeting in Washington between Bosch, another Cuban terrorist,
Luis Posada Carriles, and Michael Townley of the CIA.
Jeb's father, CIA director at the time, knew about this, as well
as another plot to kill former Chilean Foreign Minister Orlando

BBCI, Mueller, Robert Mazur
By: Firestarter Date: January 18, 2019, 11:42 am
---------------------------------------------------------
There is of course a lot more on the BBCI scandal, including a
nice role for “special” cover-up artist Robert S. Mueller III…
Even the mainstream media, including the Wall Street Journal,
Washington Post, and New York Times, have criticised the
handling of the BCCI scandal by the US Justice Department.
The following government officials have told how the Justice
Department disrupted the “investigation”.
Chairman of the Subcommittee Senator Kerry;
Customs undercover officer Robert Mazur;
Mazur’s superior at Customs, Commissioner William von Raab;
New York District Attorney Robert Morgenthau;
Former Senate investigator Jack Blum;
Former US Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, Dexter
Lehtinen.
In the 1970's, BBCI officially first opened a branch in the US.
There were rumours about BCCI’s involvement in criminal activity
practically since its inception.
According to the House Subcommittee on Crime and Criminal
Justice, [I]THE Subcommittee[/I], as far back as 1983, federal
authorities knew about BCCI’s illegal activities and by the
mid-1980's the government had enough information to have put
BCCI on the most wanted list.
In 1983, Customs Service had information on illegal smuggling
operations by one of BCCI biggest customers - the Jordanian arms
merchant Munter Bilbeisi.
In April 1984, former BCCI employee Aziz Rehman was interviewed
by the IRS in Miami on transporting large volumes of currency in
violation of Federal laws. He provided them with evidence on
deposits to a nonexistent BCCI branch in Nassau, Bahamas.
The Government of India provided the IRS with evidence of a
money laundering scheme involving BCCI. Because India didn’t
have a tax treaty with the US, the allegations weren’t followed
up.
In the autumn of 1984, Agha Hasan Abedi was told by the
President of BCCI, Abdur Sakhia, that then-Senator Paula Hawkins
had told President Zia to be concerned about drug money
laundering by a BCCI subsidiary in the Cayman Islands.
In early 1985, the CIA reported to government agencies the
Treasury and the Comptroller of the Currency on BCCI's plans in
the United States, including its secret ownership of First
American. Officially that information wasn’t passed on to anyone
else.
Assistant Attorney General Robert Mueller told the Subcommittee
that the Justice Department didn’t know about this CIA report.
In 1986 undercover Customs agent Robert Mazur proposed an
undercover money laundering operation called Operation C-Chase.
Mazur opened a Panamanian account at BCCI because it was the
easiest to get.
His undercover operation handled roughly $14 million through
BCCI on which BCCI earned banking fees in excess of $250,000.
According to Mazur BBCI was more interested in getting large
deposits than the fees.
In September 1988, Mazur tape recorded his meeting with Amjad
Awan, BCCI's personal banker to Panamanian General Manuel
Noriega, in Miami, Florida.
Awan told Mazur that he had been subpoenaed by the Foreign
Relations Committee of the US Senate over Noriega's accounts and
others in Panama. He also told Mazur about BCCI's secret
ownership of First American and National Bank of Georgia through
private individuals. He also gave his ideas on the political
implications of Clark Clifford's chairmanship of First American.
He explained that BCCI’s lawyer Robert Altman would simply
obstruct the Subcommittee's investigation into the connection
between Noriega and BCCI.
In October 1988, federal agents arrested several intermediate
managers of BBCI. This was coordinated with the authorities in
the UK and France, who also made arrests.
The sting operation was taken down. Both Mazur and assistant US
Attorney in Tampa Mark Jackowski were unhappy with the handling
of the C-Chase investigation.
In the fall of 1989, the Subcommittee sought to depose a
Colombian money-launderer, who had used BCCI in Panama. This was
halted, so the information never reached the Subcommittee.
To make matters worse, the communication was leaked to the
press, imperilling the Colombian’s family and property, so that
he refused to cooperate with the US authorities any further.
Jack Blum was investigating drug trafficking in Panama. Blum
contacted the Justice Department with startling information
about BCCI - "[I]a very senior BCCI officer[/I]” had given him
evidence on the bank’s criminality.
Blum gave evidence to Customs and IRS agents in Tampa, including
conversations with Mark Jackowski. Blum thought that the Justice
Department would use the information in its investigation of
BBCI. Blum was disappointed that the Justice Department didn’t
use the information: [quote]I waited for something to happen
and, and what happened was, I started getting calls from the two
guys I took to Tampa who said they're [the Justice Department]
is not following up. Then, I talked to the agents, and the
agents said, well, we're very busy...
No follow-up. And I began to worry that something was very wrong
with this case. In -- I now believe it was late May, I decided
that I would bring this matter to another jurisdiction, and that
was New York...
I talked to Bob Morgenthau and essentially told him what I knew.
On the basis of the same evidence essentially, and he ultimately
communicated with the same witnesses, he produced the
indictment.[/quote]
Between March 1988 and October 1991, the Justice Department
repeatedly delayed or halted the investigation by the Kerry
Subcommittee concerning BCCI, and even made false statements.
The October 1988 indictment had charged BCCI with having a
corporate policy of soliciting drug money. Then a plea was made,
and prosecutors only blamed some individuals but not the bank
(or its high executives). As a result, BCCI stopped its Florida
operations and sacrificed a handful of bank employees for
scapegoats. The Justice Department essentially stopped
investigating BCCI after the plea deal.
Dexter Lehtinen investigated both BBCI and David Paul's dealings
in Miami's largest Savings & Loan, CenTrust, in which BCCI held
a secret interest of 25% through its nominee, Ghaith Pharaon.
When Lehtinen tried to have subpoenas enforced, the Justice
Department simply refused to enforce them. Even after Attorney
General Mueller offered to provide assistance to any US Attorney
office pursuing a case against BCCI, he still refused to enforce
Lehtinen’s subpoenas without any explanation.
On August 22 1991, chief assistant to Assistant Attorney General
Mueller, Dennis Saylor, called Lehtinen and "[I]indicated to me
that I was directed not to return the indictment[/I]”. The next
day Lehtinen received a letter from the Assistant Attorney
General for the Tax Division Bruton, informing him that he
should not move forward.
NY District Attorney Morgenthau requested that the Justice
Department provide a witness, to which he got the answer:
[quote]They have said that he may be available in a
year.[/quote]
Morgenthau also offered to exchange information with the Justice
Department, but that they flatly rejected the offer:

Robert Mazur helped to bring down the BCCI bank and Pablo
Escobar.
In the following 12:44 video, Mazur tells that the BBCI actively
helped him to set-up a money laundering scheme. Mazur tells that
they could have achieved more if they had kept the operation
going for a couple of months more.
He testified every day during the 3 months trial. All of the
defendants were convicted for their crimes.
He tells that the banks these days are still doing the same
thing, including the HSBC bank.

Henry Kissinger, Elaine Chao, Donald Trump
By: Firestarter Date: January 19, 2019, 11:48 am
---------------------------------------------------------
The trail of drugs trafficking, money laundering, Henry
Kissinger, leads to Elaine L. Chao and back to Donald Trump,
George Bush and the Clintons.
Sadly overlooked in this thread, is Henry Kissinger “KBE”, who
was awarded the Nobel Prize for peace in 1973 for orchestrating
the mass murder in Southeast Asia (including but not limited to
Vietnam and Cambodia). This went too far even for the notorious
Nobel committee – 2 members of the committee actually resigned
over awarding “war criminal” Kissinger this highly regarded
prize.
Heinz “Henry” Kissinger is one of the many “philanthropists”,
who was knighted by Queen Elizabeth.
Henry Kissinger, David Rockefeller’s favourite agent since the
1960s, has been instrumental in controlling US politics ever
since Richard Nixon became US president.
Kissinger played an important role in the drugs for arms
pipeline for the Nicaragua Contras project.
Shortly after inauguration, President Reagan appointed Henry
Kissinger as chairman to the Commission on Central America.
One of the first appearances of Oliver North was in travelling
to Central America for Kissinger’s commission. North later
became the NSC liaison to this commission.
Kissinger was completely aware of the cocaine trafficking by the
Contras, and from the following summary of the proposal by the
Kissinger commission it becomes clear that he implicitly
instructed the US government to set up the drugs for arms
pipeline.
The Kissinger commission prescribed a policy for Nicaragua of
economic, military and political pressure, using
counterrevolutionary actions, see the following excerpts from
its report:
[quote]We do not believe that it would be wise to dismantle
existing incentives and pressures on the Managua regime except
in conjunction with demonstrable progress on the negotiating
front.
(...)
the majority of the members of the Commission, in their
respective individual judgments, believe that the efforts of the
Nicaraguan insurgents represent one of the incentives working in
favor of a negotiated settlement.[/quote]
The Kissinger Commission also acknowledged the importance of
support by Honduras to the Contras, so its air force should be
beefed up.
Obviously drugs trafficking was read between the lines by the
initiated in “deep politics”:

On 22 October 1983 Henry Kissinger met Contra-leaders from
Nicaragua, including none other than Adolfo Calero:

President Trump nominated Elaine L. Chao (born in Taiwan) to
Secretary of Transportation, which the Senate confirmed by a
vote of 93-6 (her husband Senator Mitch McConnell didn’t refrain
from voting…).
Elaine Chao has earlier served as a Reagan administration
official and secretary of labor in the George W. Bush cabinets
(from 2001 to 2009). Elaine Chao is also a member of the Council
on Foreign Relations (CFR).
Elaine’s father, James S.C. Chao, was a classmate of Jiang
Zemin, the president of China in the ’90s at Jiao Tong
University. They have kept in touch ever since.
Through James Chao, Elaine and Mitch McConnell met Jiang several
times, both in Beijing and Washington. When Jiang visited the
White House in 1997, he met privately with Elaine and Mitch
McConnell, before a state dinner hosted by President Clinton;
Senator McConnell again met Jiang the next morning.
In 1999, Elaine and Mitch appeared at the University of
Louisville with Chinese Ambassador Li Zhaoxing.
When James Chao emigrated from Taiwan to the USA, he founded the
Foremost Maritime Corporation upon settling in New York.
Foremost transports goods to China and buys its ships from the
China State Shipbuilding Corporation.
Senator Mitch McConnell’s ties to the Chao family go back to the
late 1980s, when James Chao began donating to his campaigns. In
1993, McConnell married Elaine Chao.
In April 2008, James Chao gave Elaine and Mitch $5 - $25 million
to help the McConnells get over the dip in their stock portfolio
after the financial crisis earlier that year. The generous gift
made McConnell one of the wealthiest in the Senate, with an
estimated net worth of $22.8 million.
In 1989, Elaine sought out John Huang to help raise money for
Republican senators. In 1993, Huang, then head of the Lippo Bank
(based in Indonesia), arranged a coalition of Chinese banks and
individuals to sponsor Chao’s visit to Los Angeles as the new
head of United Way.
Huang also donated $2,000 to McConnell illegally as part of a
foreign money-laundering scheme.
Elaine has been a director for Protective Life Corp., which owns
50% of CRC Protective Life Insurance. Lippo co-owns the rest of
the Hong Kong-based insurance company with China Resources
Holdings Co., a front company for China’s People Liberation
Army.
Lippo is controlled by the Riady family and was at the centre of
the Clinton “Chinagate” fundraising scandal. Lippo´s chief
executive James T. Riady pled guilty to a felony charge for
illegally donating to the campaign of Bill Clinton.
One of Elaine’s patrons was Maurice “Hank” Greenberg.
Greenberg is chairman and chief executive of the New York-based
American International Group (AIG), which does a lot of business
in China.
Greenberg and AIG, through its employee PAC, have donated
thousands of dollars to Mitch McConnell’s campaigns. Mitch also
received large sums for speeches for AIG.
AIG has also hired Henry A. Kissinger, for his connections
(including in China).
Chao also served on the board of directors for Bloomberg
Philanthropies, the foundation started by New York Mayor Michael
Bloomberg. Bloomberg gives money to the Sierra Club’s program of
sustainable development (the problem of overpopulation…).
Elaine served as studies advisor to Heritage as well. Bloomberg
gave Heritage $180,000 in 1998 and at least $100,000 a year for
more than a decade through his Starr Foundation for writing
favourably about trading with China:

(archived here:
HTML http://archive.is/ryV3Y)
The China connection (again) leads to Henry Kissinger.
Kissinger has visited China more than 80 times since his first
clandestine 1971 trip.
After Donald Trump became US president elect, Kissinger swiftly
visited Chinese President Xi Jinping.
Kissinger was amongst a select group of US experts that met Xi
in February 2012 before he became president.
Other Americans on this short list were former Treasury
Secretary Hank Paulson and… Elaine Chao:

Now for the shocking stuff…
In August 2014, the ship “Ping May” of the Foremost Maritime
Corporation of daddy Chao was in Santa Marta en route to the
Netherlands.
See James Chao (second from right), at the christening of the
“Ping May” in Shanghai.

Before it could leave the port, Colombian inspectors discovered,
amidst its load of coal, approximately 40 kilograms (about
ninety pounds) of cocaine in 40 separate packages:

(archived here:
HTML http://archive.is/6Gzi5)
Elaine Chao has also served on the board of Wells Fargo, one of
the biggest banks in the world.
In 2012, Wells Fargo paid a $175 million settlement after it was
accused of charging higher fees and rates to minority borrowers
(maybe not of Chinese origins…) than to white borrowers with the
same “credit risk”.
Even more interesting is that in 2010, Wachovia – purchased by
Wells Fargo in 2008 – paid a settlement of $160 million for
laundering over $100 million in drugs money for “Mexican and
Colombian drug cartels” (I didn’t know that Bush, Clinton and
Kissinger are Mexican Columbians…).
The bank admitted that it had failed to “apply the proper
anti-laundering strictures” regarding the handling of $378.4
billion in currency exchanges with Mexico between 2004 and 2007.
In the aftermath of the financial crisis, the big banks received
huge government bailouts (Wells Fargo got $25 billion from the
US government).
According to the UN, proceeds from the global drug trade was
“the only liquid investment capital” that ultimately helped keep
Wells Fargo and other banks afloat.
Wells Fargo also profited, and continues to profit, at the other
end of the “war on drug” as a major investor in the
prison-industrial complex, specifically with heavy investments
in the GEO Group, the second largest private prison company in
the USA.
The Global Power Project examined a total of 26 individuals on
the executive committee and board of directors at Wells Fargo;
the most represented institutions are: the CFR and
PricewaterhouseCoopers (with 3 individual affiliations each),
followed by Harvard, Citigroup, Chevron, the Financial Services
Roundtable and Target Corporation (with 2 individual
affiliations):

Media campaign against Lyndon LaRouche
By: Firestarter Date: January 20, 2019, 11:50 am
---------------------------------------------------------
One of the most important sources for this thread is the media
network of Lyndon LaRouche.
Lyndon LaRouche is also a good source on many other “conspiracy”
topics like enslaving whole continent by debt by the World Bank
and IMF:
HTML https://3169.createaforum.com/firestarter-on-fire/world-bank-and-imf-destroy-economies-or-modern-day-slavery/msg2784/#msg2784
Herbert Quinde breaks down the media campaign against Lyndon
LaRouche and the NCLC.
The campaign was orchestrated by New York financier John Train.
Michael Hudson described meetings involving Train and 25 other
journalists to Herbert Quinde in 1984, to: [quote]coordinate
national magazine stuff about you guys and [work] with federal
law enforcement to deny you funding and tax exemption[/quote]
Sol Sanders, former editor of Business Week and founder of the
Committee for a Free World, told that 2 defamatory broadcasts
against LaRouche by NBC-TV in January and March 1984 were
planned at a meeting he attended at John Train's residence.
The participants, according to Sanders, included Pat Lynch
(producer of NBC-TV), Dennis King, and about 25 other
journalists.
Ellen Hume wrote a derogatory article concerning LaRouche in the
23 March 1986 Wall Street Journal.
Hume stated that she had attended a meeting at John Train's
concerning LaRouche; sources for her article were Patricia Lynch
and law enforcement.
Mira Boland, Washington Fact-Finding Director of the
Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith (ADL), testified that she
attended a meeting concerning Lyndon LaRouche at John Train's
residence in 1984. Boland testified that Roy Godson and Patricia
Lynch were present at this meeting. They discussed LaRouche's
lawsuit against NBC.
Richard Morris testified that the most vocal opponents of
LaRouche were Kenneth DeGraffenreid, Walter Raymond, and Roy
Godson.
Dennis King, a Train meeting participant and a crucial resource
to the government's investigation, received funding for his
activities against LaRouche from the Smith-Richardson
Foundation.
By 1985, Roy Godson and Terry Slease (the attorney for Richard
Mellon Scaife that was also in the Train salon meetings), were
tasked by Oliver North to raise funds from private citizens for
use in the Contra and public diplomacy efforts.
In May 1986, NSC and State Department operatives Lewis, Howard,
and Tucker were being interviewed under NSC auspices because
they had "good information" on LaRouche. Around the same time,
North met Arthur Arundel and Lt. Col. Olmstead, both of whom
were extremely active in publicity operations against LaRouche.
See a small sample of slander articles by the Train salon:
HTML https://larouchepac.com/sites/default/files/slander-campaign.jpg
The ADL played a central role in the prosecution of LaRouche and
was represented at the Train meetings.
Carl Gershman, a former staff member of the ADL, became the
President of Reagan’s National Endowment for Democracy (NED).
John Rees, who was present in the Train meetings and Irwin Suall
of the ADL, testified against LaRouche in May 1986.
Ronald Radosh, the co-author of the 1984 New Republic piece with
Dennis King, travelled to Central America under the auspices of
the Puebla Institute.
Russ Bellant is the author of articles appearing in November
1988, and asserted that the Puebla Institute was a front for CIA
and NSC propaganda run under Oliver North.
In 1982, President of Mexico Lopez Portillo had talked to
LaRouche in an effort to get rid of the debt dictatorship by the
World Bank and IMF, which had sent a "shock wave" through
Washington.
Leo Cherne told that he chaired a task force at PFIAB on Third
World debt that had been established through William Casey in
reaction to Mexico's repudiation of its debt in 1982.
Eugene Methvin, who authored the Reader's Digest article against
LaRouche in August 1986, is a Co-Chairman of the Nathan Hale
Institute and at the time a commissioner on President Reagan's
Commission on Organized Crime.
Methvin called for private organizations together with the
Government to combat subversive threats, including derogatory
materials in the media. He cited the ADL as "the prototype
attack group" for such operations.
Methvin has campaigned for an end to legal restrictions on
government counteraction activities against “subversive
threats”, pointing to the FBI's former COINTELPRO program as
"[I]a model of sophisticated, effective counter-terrorist law
enforcement[/I]":

Drug traffickers in Britain and the Netherlands
By: Firestarter Date: January 21, 2019, 12:05 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
The following posts involve stories in which my home country the
Netherlands is involved.
In this post some stories on drug traffickers working for the
government as “informers” in Britain and the Netherlands.
[B]Baybasin – Netherlands and Britain[/B]
In July 2002, in the Netherlands the Kurdish Turk Huseyin
Baybasin was sentenced in appeal to life in prison for running a
“violent” criminal organisation that was involved in murder,
extortion, kidnapping and heroin trafficking in the Netherlands,
Turkey and the US.
He was convicted based on (falsified?) tapes of telephone
conversations and stabbed in the back by his own attorneys (in
Dutch):
HTML http://uitspraken.rechtspraak.nl/inziendocument?id=ECLI:NL:GHSHE:2002:AE5920
The Baybasins had information on high-ranking members of the
Dutch, British and Turkish government involved in the £25
billion heroin trade.
By 1998, the Baybasin family was making millions from exporting
heroin to Europe.
Huseyin Baybasin settled in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
Reportedly his crime organisation also extorted up to £10,000 a
year from shopkeepers and other small businessmen.
In March 2001, his brother Abdullah pleaded guilty to drug
importation and in 2006 was sentenced to 22 years in prison.
Six members of his gang were jailed to a total of 68 years after
pleading guilty to offences involving guns, violence, extortion
and blackmail:
HTML http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/4787088.stm
The Baybasins were already notorious across Europe, the Middle
East and Central Asia when they were invited to move from Turkey
to the Netherlands and Britain.
In either late 1994 or early 1995, Abdullah Baybasin was
encouraged by Customs to come to the UK where he settled in
London. Huseyin Baybasin agreed to tell Customs investigators
what he knew about the involvement of the Turkish authorities in
the international heroin trade.
Baybasin and his gang entered the country illegally using forged
Dutch passports, and had no problems setting up business.
Abdullah Baybasin claimed asylum in Britain and was given
preferential treatment because he was an informant for Customs
and Excise.
Michael Howard was home secretary at the time.
The Baybasin Cartel was linked to up to 25 murders.
Several other relatives also lived in Britain, including 2 other
brothers, Sirin and Mesut Baybasin. Sirin was once extradited
from Spain to Italy to stand trial on drug smuggling charges but
acquitted:

(archived here:
HTML http://archive.is/pFJch)
[B]Ayhan Kurt - Britain[/B]
Another major drug smuggler, Ayhan Kurt, was released by the
British authorities because he was working for MI5 and Turkish
military intelligence.
Kurt had escaped justice, a month after in August 2002 being
caught with 70 kilos of heroin. He had earlier avoided
prosecution in 1998 and had his visa renewed despite being
connected to 20 kilos of heroin concealed in a car.
In January 1998, Kurt was arrested in a London hotel room with 7
kilos of heroin and £143,000 in cash. Charges were later dropped
after he promised “[I]to name an informant in a case[/I]".
In 2002, Kurt and his partner Recep Yilmaz, imported 200-300
kilos heroin a month. In 2002, Kurt was arrested for possession
of heroin but was not charged due to "[I]insufficient
evidence[/I]".
In 2004 (after he fled Britain), he was still smuggling 80 kilos
a month into Britain.
Two British men, David Powell and John Rae, were sentenced to
respectively 17 and 11 years in a conspiracy to supply heroin.
Powell and Rae admitted they were smuggling cigarettes but that
Kurt had set them up by replacing the cigarettes with heroin.
The Court of Appeal quashed the original convictions after it
was revealed that prosecution didn’t disclose information about
Kurt and his associate, Abdullah Baybasin:

[B]John Haase - Britain[/B]
Drugs baron John Haase told Labour MP Peter Kilfoyle that he was
released from prison early after making a payment of £400,000 to
former Home Secretary Michael Howard's cousin Simon Bakerman.
Haase and his nephew Paul Bennett were arrested in July 1993 for
an international drug trafficking operation.
After they were jailed in 1995, the judge wrote privately to
Howard asking for a royal pardon, because they had offered to
become informants for Customs and Excise and their lives
“[I]would be at risk[/I]”.
Home Secretary Howard approved the “[I]Royal Prerogative of
Mercy[/I]” and cut their sentences from 18 to 5 years.
They were released in July 1996 (after the payment of £400,000)
- 10 months and 2 weeks after being sentenced:

[B]IRT affair – Netherlands[/B]
The IRT affair in the Netherlands also involved drug trafficking
with the participation of the police.
In 1995, Mink K was convicted of weapons possession and cocaine
trafficking. He was released on appeal, due to a legal
technicality.
Mink K had connections with the US DEA agent Robert Nieves that
was linked to the cocaine importing network of the CIA and the
Contras.
The Lockerbie bombing, “investigated” by amongst others Robert
Mueller, was to cover-up a drug scandal:

#Post#: 3338--------------------------------------------------
IRT affair – Bas van Hout
By: Firestarter Date: January 22, 2019, 11:37 am
---------------------------------------------------------
I’ve looked for more information on the connection between Dutch
drug trafficker Mink Kok and US Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA)
officer - Robert Nieves.
From 1985 to 1989, Nieves was the handler of Norwin "El Perico"
Meneses the Cali cartel's representative in Nicaragua who was
indicted on cocaine trafficking charges in the US in 1989, and
arrested and sentenced to 12 years in Nicaragua in 1991.
In 1995, Nieves served as chief of the DEA's International
Division, which was responsible for the DEA input in the IRT
affair. Shortly after leaving the agency, Bob Nieves joined
Guardian Technologies, a security consulting service and body
armour manufacturing company based in Virginia and owned by
Olivier North and Joe Fernandez (former CIA chief of station in
Costa Rica from 1984 to 1986, who was also an integral part of
the Contra supply network).
Mink Kok was arrested by the French police and extradited to
Belgium in mid-1998. He was released on bail after only 2 weeks
of detention, and returned to the Netherlands (after making a
deal).
The IRT operation was suspended in December 1993
F. Lenaers (of the Belgian weapons manufacturer, Fabrique
National (FN)) concluded that some of the guns had been ordered
from FN by a US government agency:
HTML https://www.mail-archive.com/ctrl@listserv.aol.com/msg36999.html
Gary Webb’s book, confirms that Robert J. Nieves was the control
agent of Norwin Meneses throughout most of the 1980s.
Joseph Kelso said that Nieves had been skimming cocaine from
seizures made by the Costa Rican narcotics police. In 1986,
Kelso had "hard-core, documentable, bring-it-into-court
information" on Nieves, including 6 witnesses willing to testify
that the DEA agents were skimming cocaine, making counterfeit
money, sanitising intelligence reports to Washington, and
protecting cocaine processing labs in northern Costa Rica.
At the time DEA agents Nieves and Gonzalez were stationed in
Costa Rica, the CIA station chief was Joe Fernandez, a close
friend and confidant of Oliver North.
When I looked for “evidence” on the connection between Mink Kok
and Robert Nieves I found a book in Dutch by journalist Bas van
Hout , who intentionally kept the most important information out
of the book.
Other problems with this book are that there is no reference
list and he uses fake names, while giving the impression that
most of the names in the book are “real”.
The starting point of the book is Klaas Bruinsma’s drug
organisation, but (officially) the IRT-affair really only
started after “drug lord” Klaas Bruinsma was assassinated.
The most important person in the book appears to be FIOD
official Cees de Jongh; the specialist in “controlled” entry of
narcotics into the Netherlands, approved by the “Officier” of
Justice. Officials of customs said that they reported suspicious
cargo to De Jongh, who decided what to do with it.
Cees de Jongh worked together with Frits van der Putten (one of
the very few “real” names in the book) of the CID.
Henk de Jongh worked for his brother Cees. Henk repeatedly
talked to “Karel Vosseveld” (fake name), an important associate
of Bruinsma.
The CID is part of the police and the FIOD is the investigation
unit for the taxes (Belastingdienst).
The criminal file of “Vosseveld” was made unfindable...
“Vosseveld” had 30 trucks transporting the hashish (labelled as
oranges) from Morocco and Spain to the Netherlands.
“Vosseveld” was also an associate of Belgian Minister Paul
vanden Boeynants, whose company was involved in transporting the
hashish. Vanden Boeynants was sentenced for tax evasion. No more
information on this interesting lead by Van Hout...
Henk de Jongh did the money laundering for “Vosseveld” through
Luxembourg banks. Henk’s wife was a top executive at a large
Luxembourg bank. They invested in a real estate, gold and
aiki-Budo centres (martial arts).
“Vosseveld” paid the brothers De Jongh many millions of guilders
for getting the drugs through customs.
The CID leaked information to Klaas Bruinsma so that he would
assassinate certain criminals.
The British Roy Adkins was killed in September 1990 in Amsterdam
after Cees de Jongh informed “Vosseveld” that Adkins hired a
contract killer to get rid of Bruinsma. “Vosseveld” was also
informed on the German “Hans” (fake name), that was murdered
after they informed Bruinsma that a container with drugs was
caught because he had been questioned at Schiphol.
I think that it’s possible that the information leaked to
Bruinsma was false...
Klaas Bruinsma and a select group of associates planned to
import a whopping 46,000 kilos of hashish from Pakistan in one
ship. According to the Dutch government, this would have made
profits of 450 million guilders.
Bruinsma asked “Vosseveld” (using De Jongh) for assistance to
get this through customs. Shortly before the ship would arrive
in Amsterdam, De Jongh threatened that if he wouldn’t get half
of the profits the whole shipment would be caught. “Vosseveld”
refused this offer and the whole ship was caught. Only some of
the low operatives were caught and tried in court.
Probably a part of the catch was sold anyway.
According to “Nol Couperus”, they could have arrested Bruinsma
and “Vosseveld” after the 46,000 kilos was caught in 1990.
To me this proves what amateurs Bruinsma and his gang were; they
should have split this shipment over several transports...
On 27 June 1991, Bruinsma was assassinated in Amsterdam.
Cop Martin Hoogland was found guilty for the murder, 20 years,
according to Van Hout based on the false testimony of heroin
dealer Steve Brown.
According to Van Hout, in 1994 Aleksander’s brother Branco
Marianovic (from Montenegro) confessed killing Bruinsma and was
the real killer. Marianovic was later murdered so we can’t ask
him.
Officially IRT started in 1992, but it’s clear that even before
that Bruinsma imported drugs with the help of the authorities.
Officially between 15,000 and 25,000 kilo cocaine and 500,000
kilo hashish were imported “controlled” – value 7 billion
guilders.
The “investigation” of Bruinsma and his associates cost the tax
payers 150 million guilders by the end of the 1990s.
An important associate of Klaas Bruinsma was Etienne Urka.
Etienne was arrested in December 1996, and in March 1999
convicted to 18 months for tax evasion.
In 1996, Maarten van Traa (head of the commission investigating
the IRT-affair) was in contact with “Vosseveld”, at the time in
prison, who wanted to make a deal to tell “everything” on the
liquidations by the CID Haarlem.
Adele van der Plas was the attorney of “Vosseveld”.
This deal was not finalised by Van Traa and Frank Bovenkerk.
BVD informer W. Scholtemeijer was killed in 1997 in Haarlem
Towards the end of the book, finally information on “Nico”
Robert Mink Kok being helped to escape justice by DEA man Robert
“the Snowman” Nieves (who was part of the Contra drug
trafficking). I was hoping for more information, evidence, but
Van Hout didn’t think this was an interesting lead...
In 1996, Mink Kok got preferential treatment of “Raadsheer”
Willem den Ottolander (friend of Cees de Jongh) of the court of
appeal (Gerechtshof), involving 15,000 to 25,000 kilos cocaine
worth 1.2 billion guilders and was acquitted.
It has been rumoured that Jaap van der Heijden was murdered by
Mink Kok after the CID informed Bruinsma that he was trying to
kill him.
In November 1997, Mink Kok was again arrested for buying secret
police reports, but released in Belgium after a couple of months
because of lacking evidence.
In 1999, Mink Kok made a deal with Fred Teeven.
After his release from prison, Mink Kok was accused of being the
owner of a big weapons arsenal, including explosives and XTC in
a house in Amsterdam. A new court case against Mink Kok was
behind closed doors.
On 30 March 2000, Mink Kok was sentenced to 4 years.
Another CID informer “Chris J.” was involved in importing tons
of cocaine from the Columbian Cali cartel and from Panama with
the aid of the IRT.
He was arrested in February 2000.
Fred Teeven had to testify for the commission Van Traa where he
defended his actions, by claiming that he didn’t know what Cees
de Jongh was doing.
Teeven admitted that 293,000 kilos drugs were imported. In
reality it was much more.
Cees de Jongh wasn’t questioned by the commission Van Traa for
medical reasons. Van Hout describes going to an aiki-Budo
work-out under false pretences to meet De Jongh. For some reason
Van Hout “forgot” to ask De Jongh on his role importing drugs
for the FIOD. This shows that the medical condition of De Jongh
had been highly exaggerated.
De Jongh bought several aiki-Budo centrums with dirty money,
without raising suspicion from the authorities.
According to Cees de Jongh, his superiors (including Fred
Teeven) knew about the drug imports.
Another criminal, “Roel C.” (another fake name), also made a
deal with Teeven.
Some time after the Commission Van Traa, the Commission Kalsbeek
started a new “investigation”.
This commission claimed that Mink Kok had imported 15,000 to
25,000 kilos of cocaine with the help of the IRT.

Besides not naming individuals he doesn’t even name the
Luxembourg banks that were involved in laundering the money for
Cees and his brother Henk de Jongh.
It could be interesting to look at the names Van Hout DOES
mention...
He names the American born Steven Brown as one of the
perpetrators. What could be the motive?
Steven Brown has a blogspot where he labels our beloved
Willem-Alexander, the “graai-King” (steal-King) and
Willem-Alexander’s university friend PM Mark Rutte a “hofnar”
(court joker).
He also labels our Royal family and the crooks surrounding them
as “gangsters”:

IRT affair
By: Firestarter Date: January 23, 2019, 12:14 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
Minister of Justice since 1989 Ernst Hirsch Balin approved the
“controlled” import of drugs (but he was defended by Teeven who
claimed to know nothing...). Minister of Justice Hirsch Balin
was appointed by then Queen Beatrix.
In 1994, Hirsch Balin had to resign as minister over the IRT
affair. He was knighted by Beatrix on 8 October 1994 (and again
in 2010 and 2014).
On 1 November 2000, Hirsch Balin was selected by Beatrix for the
[I]Raad van State[/I] (comparable to the British Privy Council.
On 22 September 2006, Hirsch Balin again became Minister of
Justice.
When Minister of the Interior Ien Dales heard about the
“controlled” import of cocaine by Dutch law enforcement, she
reportedly said it should be stopped immediately. Ien Dales died
very suddenly on 10 January 1994 of a “heart attack”.
She was replaced by the long-time Mayor of Amsterdam, Ed van
Thijn, who not only had to resign as Minister (even though he
wasn’t involved in the “controlled” import of drugs), but also
had his political career ruined (compare this to Ernst Hirsch
Balin or Fred Teeven for example).
Maarten van Traa died in a car crash on 20 October 1997.
Was this an “accident”, like the state media claim, or did he
know too much?
According to André Rouvoet (who was also part of the Commission
Van Traa), Van Traa continued to investigate the IRT affair even
after the investigation had already been halted officially.
In 1999 the commission Kalsbeek was started to “investigate”
this affair further (again with Rouvoet).
After they reported that in the beginning of the 1990s, more
than 15,000 kilo cocaine had been imported with the help of
corrupt government officials and also found huge amounts of
exports of XTC to Britain, Minister Korthals ended the
investigation in 2001 (in Dutch):

Fred Teeven was later rewarded for his work by becoming
[I]Staatssecretaris[/I] of Justice.
In that role he supervised a deal with Cees de Jongh.
Johan V. ([I]de Hakkelaar[/I]) got sentenced to 6 years in
prison and a fine of 200 million Euro.
Cees de Jongh got sentenced to a fine of 500 million guilder. In
1993, they confiscated 6 million of his assets.
As part of the deal with Teeven, De Jongh was fined with 750,000
guilder and could keep the rest of the money tax free (in
Dutch):

Fred Teeven and Martin Witteveen also made a deal with another
drug criminal - Ad Karman.
One witness claims that Mink Kok paid Fred Teeven 1.2 million
guilders at the beginning of the 1990s to get back a confiscated
container with 2,500 kilo cocaine.
Teeven got another 500,000 guilders for the deal with Mink Kok
(in Dutch):

According to the following only 5.1 million guilders of Cees de
Jongh was confiscated and after paying 750,000 guilder he got
4.7 million guilders.
The deal also included the early release of De Jongh, even
before he was pardoned by Queen Beatrix.
The Teeven deal was approved (in all justice) by the
[I]Procureurs-Generaal[/I].
In March 2014, Minister of Justice Ivo Opstelten and Fred Teeven
claimed that Cees de Jongh only got 2 million.
On 9 March 2015, Opstelten and Teeven resigned over the
“[I]bonnetjes affaire[/I]”.
PM Mark Rutte admitted that the deal had been approved. Rutte
explained that the new commission had to “investigate” who
leaked that Cees de Jongh walked away with 4.7 (instead of 2)
million guilders (in Dutch):

The Dutch Royal family is effectively immune from prosecution,
so anybody can understand that they are terrified to break the
law...

criminals, including Siegfried “Piet” Ulrich Humphrey Wortel and
Frankie Uden, South Africa 2010.
