-Caveat Lector- CLINTON ENDANGERING NATIONAL SECURITY BY "PLAYING POLITICS" WITH PUERTO RICO... by Dot Bibee ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Last Night Criminal Politics ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) sent to me several articles by FAX and asked me to break this news to you since it is NOT being covered by the mainstream press. Because of the "black out of news" concerning what is REALLY going on, Americans think that Clinton gave clemency to the FALN prisoners to help Hillary in her campaign. NOT. In danger is the closure of the U.S. Naval Station Roosevelt Roads in Puerto Rico (all operations) and the closure of Vieques Island in Puerto Rico after an "accident" in April 1999 - and subsequent occupation of the island by protestors whose purpose is to "close" the naval operations in Puerto Rico. Clinton has given in to the "protestors" in spite of the fact that Naval officials at the Pentagon and the Atlantic fleet are putting pressure on Clinton to allow the Navy and Marine Corp to resume practicing air-to-ground bombing and naval gunfire at Vieques - which has been in use since 1941. These military commanders are increasingly complaining that the freeze on training at Vieques is jeopardizing U.S. combat readiness. Sen. Inhofe will hold SENATE HEARINGS on September 22. The following is Sen. Inhofe's latest press release.................Dot Bibee U.S. Senator James M. Inhofe -- Press Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE September 14, 1999 * INHOFE SAYS U.S. BASE IN PUERTO RICO AT RISK IF VIEQUES TRAINING IS ENDED: Says Clinton's Outrageous Clemency for Terrorists and Moves to Halt Training Are Politically Motivated WASHINGTON - U.S. Sen. James M. Inhofe (R-Okla.) warned today that Roosevelt Roads Naval Station in Puerto Rico might be closed if military training on the island of Vieques is ended. If vital training on Vieques is terminated, the requirement to maintain Roosevelt Roads Naval Station is greatly diminished, Inhofe said. Those with political motivations seeking to oust the Navy from Vieques must understand that there will be serious consequences and adverse local economic impacts if they succeed. As chairman of the Readiness Subcommittee, I would be compelled to explore the possibility of redistributing the functions performed at Roosevelt Roads to any number of under-utilized bases in the United States. Inhofe spoke on the Senate floor during debate on the resolution deploring President Clinton's recent offer of clemency to 16 Puerto Rican terrorists. The resolution was later passed by a vote of 95-2. Inhofe said he was concerned that obvious political motivations were behind both the President's offer of clemency and the recent efforts to halt the Navy's bombing and amphibious training at Vieques. He explained that U.S. military readiness was dependent on the unique type of training which takes place at Vieques and said he would hold a Readiness subcommittee hearing on the issue on Sept. 22. Inhofe also condemned President Clinton's decision to grant clemency to terrorists. This outrageous action only shows the extent to which this President will shirk proper procedure, sweep aside law enforcement concerns, and undermine national security, just to court votes and approval from his favored political constituencies.

FOLKS. This is serious business. The closure of the Naval base at Roosevelt Roads is being considered by the Base Closure committee - since they HAVE requested and have been working on an "environmental impact" statement for several months. The environmental company that my son works for has been asked to bid on this procedure. EXPOSURE of these shennagins is ONE of the things that all of us can do to STOP these treasonous acts by our government. Do what you can!!!!
