Former DEA Agent Wants
George H. Bush, Negroponte and Other Higher-Ups Held Accountable For
Illegal Drug Smuggling
"The end of my career with
the DEA took place in El Salvador. One day, I received a cable from a
fellow agent, saying to investigate possible drug smuggling by
Nicaraguan Contras operating from the Ilopango Air Force Base.
"I quickly discovered that
the Contra pilots were, indeed, smuggling narcotics back into the United
States - using the same pilots, planes and hangers that the Central
Intelligence Agency and the National Security Council, under the
direction of Lt. Col. Oliver North, used to maintain their covert supply
operation to the Contras."

interventionist agenda, but a foreign-directed and assisted covert
operation designed to subvert the institutional foundations of various
key government agencies and hijack U.S. military might in order to serve
the interests of a foreign power, i.e., Israel

Indeed, it was this terror funding
of Israeli far right militiamen that tripped Abramoff up, since the FBI
discovered that he had misled Indian tribes into giving money to the
Jabotinskyites, and then began wondering if he had defrauded the tribes
in other ways. (You betcha!) The Indian leaders were furious when they
discovered they had been used to oppress another dispossessed indigenous
people, the Palestinians, calling it "Outer Limits bizarre" and saying
that they would never have willingly given money to such a cause.

Whitehouse
As the spy scandal unfolds it now appears to spread further than AIPAC,
AEI, and the Pentagon. Michael Ledeen an ultra-Zionist Likudnik believed
to be an Israeli agent is a key foreign Policy Advisor to Karl Rove.
Rove who is known as a small man in a big job counts on a number of
marginal fringe players for advice. Of all of his oddball advisors
Michael Ledeen certainly acts like an agent of influence of a foreign
government...was named in the Italian investigation into the forgery of

Abramoff and the Israeli Connection
"More than $140,000 of foundation funds were actually
sent to the Israeli West Bank where they were used by a Jewish settler
to mobilize against the Palestinian uprising. Among the expenditures:
purchases of camouflage suits, sniper scopes, night-vision binoculars, a
thermal imager, and other material described in foundation records as
'security' equipment. The FBI, sources tell Newsweek, is now examining
these payments as part of a larger investigation to determine if
Abramoff defrauded his Indian tribe clients."

More Mischief from Abramoff
Investigations into Abramoff's shady practices have
resulted in the posting of hundreds of incriminating e-mail exchanges on
the committee's website. Among the more bizarre exchanges, Abramoff
refers to his clients, the Choctaw Indian tribe, as 'monkeys' and
implores Rabbi Daniel Lapin to appoint him a 'Scholar of Talmudic
Studies' to gain entrance into a Washington, DC social club. Even more
troubling are e-mails concerning Abramoff's funding of a sniper school
for West Bank settlers.
