Bednorz © 2000 DEAR NEWSMAKINGNEWS: I notice you're knocking USDOJ and Reno with one hand and banging away at the Cheney -- PERMINDEX -- Freeport Sulphur connection with the other. Focus on the latter. Since December 3, 1998, Reno and DOJ have been pursuing evidence sufficient to have Pinochet extradited to the US for purpose of standing trial in the still-open Sept. 21, 1976 car-bombing of Orlando Letelier and Ronni Moffitt at Sheridan Circle, Washington, D.C. Chilean Embassy location ] The complete pursuit of the Letelier bombing tracks through Michael Townley and CIA-controlled Cuban exiles back to (now-deceased former CIA )-- you guessed it -- David Atlee Phillips. Bush Sr. could be held accountable for obstruction, perjury, and misprision of a felony. Kissinger also, as an accessory before the fact. While the Intel agencies could pursue their long-standing pattern of "containing" scandal that tracks back to them, this case, together with the appeal proceedings in Houston, TX, for Edwin P. Wilson and other litigation might provide the best public window into the last 37 years of our history. America needs a litigious showcase to widen consciousness to what is really important, rather than the intelligence-instigated inquisition of the President over the last seven years [ for appointing the ARRB, obtaining legislation requiring a document declassification process in the Intel agencies, and thus opening a window that points back to the conspiracies in the JFK, King, and Letelier murders. ] The three-ring impeachment circus only served to drag the Presidency and the Constitution through a trail of elephant dung. Thanks for posting the story on Cheney. Also, stay on top of forthcoming release-date or other information concerning www.thirteen-days.com RB DEAR RB: Thanks for the excellent insights. Can I publish this as a letter to NewsMakingNews? Do you have any URL or site reference about Reno REALLY trying to extradite Pinochet? I am very interested in David Atlee Phillips and Freeport Sulphur. Do you know about Frederick Von Bodungen of Louisiana? Thanks for reading NMN. NewsMakingNews ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DEAR NEWSMAKINGNEWS: Of course you can publish my letter. As for the Letelier-Moffitt case, I direct your attention to the USDOJ web-site. I stumbled onto this while surfing through the CIA web site, and I made some casual queries about Dave Phillips, which led me to remarks about their "Chile De-Classification Project." That, in turn, pointed to USDOJ. Look under press releases and "speeches" by the Attorney General starting December 3, 1998. More information about the case pops up in a release of a press-conference dated March 23, 2000, and more recent information has been printed on BBC and other web-sites as late as August of this year. Reno has been very tight-lipped: "I cannot comment on a pending matter [Mar. 23]" . Later, in August, when questioned about the Chilean Parliament and Supreme Court deciding to repeal Pinochet's exemption from prosecution written into their Constitution and whether it would adversely affect the thrust of Reno's grand-jury and the investigation in Chile, she stated that the investigation is continuing, and she didn't foresee how these new developments would affect it. Washington Post, as of March 28, suggests that an extradition is "not too likely". But given Buffone's efforts on the parts of the three families (Letelier, Moffitt, Tarpon), and Reno's tight-lipped persistence in continuing the investigation, one wonders if this discounted estimate reflects someone else's agenda or wishes for the case. The first three links below are USDOJ "weekly media briefings." They are a bit long, so I suggest searching them for the words Letelier, Chile, and Pinochet, respectively. So far, we know that a grand-jury has been meeting for several months. This was the recommendation of Donald Freed's 1980 book "Death In Washington: The Murder of Orlando Letelier." I suggest you reread that book, as time permits, for its insight into the clandestine-CIA/media nexus that continues from the JFK assassination through Watergate and the Chilean coup, through Letelier-Moffitt and Iran-Contra. Then of course, there is my theory as to why the inquisition of the Clinton administration costing $50 million. While perhaps the President trivially deserved to have his character "assassinated," neither the cost nor the failures of Ken Starr make any sense, until one examines the background events and news of the last decade. Understanding the 91 JFK Records Act, Bush's stonewall and Clinton's earnest efforts, the ARRB, the legislation authorizing regular document declassification processes in the intel agencies -- it all makes sense. Bush was handed the Records Act mandate during his term in office. He stonewalled the board appointments; and when he left office, he stole the list of candidates -- at least that's what I was told by responsible assassination researchers. Clinton had to start from scratch. He requested a new list, and he appointed the ARRB. Slowly, small AP releases began to appear in newspapers here and there around the country. The intelligence-Mafia-Cuban-exile cabal of ZR/RIFLE; plots to assassinate Castro. Falsification of autopsy evidence in the Warren Report; Gerald Ford's statements about the position of Kennedy's back wound. Oswald's 201 file and its strange history. Not too long after the ARRB appointments, the mantle of special prosecutor was handed from Fiske to Starr, and the inquisition began. Whitewater -- strike 1; Travelgate -- strike 2; Vince Foster and the proliferation of rumors and innuendo about Clinton's role in Foster's death -- foul ball; Scaife and Starr's Pepperdine U job-offer -- concede the game; and finally, Monica Lewinsky -- home run. There was no "conspiracy" here by legal definition, but a network of conservative lawyers connected Starr with the Paula Jones attorneys. It began to look like a legal chess game. The investigation itself precipitated a legal-two-step of an equivocation and a possible lie; accusations of perjury made headlines. We usually think of legal investigations as activities which follow a crime, but in this case, the investigation came first. In September, 1998, the ARRB released its final report, together with tens of thousands of additional documents, and disbanded. Coincidentally, that was the same month that Congress voted to impeach. The following month, Clinton signed the CIA Re-authorization Act of 1999 -- nothing to be surprised about, since it was an annual budget document -- but it also specified a new name for the Langley Headquarters -- "The George Bush Center for Intelligence." [ See the CIA web-site ] In the ARRB Final Report, in Chapter 6, which lists information about "people connected in one way or the other with the assassination and investigation," is a rather long paragraph, with a bold-print heading "George Herbert Walker Bush." It summarizes the story about the phone-call to Hoover before the assassination; the ARRB's search among CIA personnel records; its discovery of a low-level clerk at Langley in 1963 named "George Bush;" ARRB conclusions from interviews and cross-checks of the clerk's assignments and testimony that this second Bush could not have been the one making the phone call; and finally, the discovery of a page from Allen Dulles' calendar, containing the entry of an appointment with "Major General George Bush" in 1962. The Report then explains the ARRB's search of Pentagon records, turning up no record of such an officer before, during or after the assassination. It then states: "We marked the page of Dulles' calendar an 'assassination record.' " We know that, in addition to the burglaries of Tad Szulc's home, Daniel Ellsburg's home ( who, by the way, released a version of NSAM 263 in "The Pentagon Papers"), and the Watergate, E. Howard Hunt, Frank Sturgis, and various Cuban-exiles also burglarized Orlando Letelier's office and stole a list of leftist Allende supporters -- precipitating many of the "disappearances" in Chile. Phillips -- together with Michael Townley -- organized the vicious and insidious propaganda and civil disorder campaign in Chile, provoking a coup that would have never occurred by itself. Later, Phillips acquired Letelier's briefcase after the bombing, distributed materials to his friend Buckley and others in the media, who then proceeded to spread misinformation about the bombing to disassociate the CIA from DINA and steer suspicions away from DINA. Townley was convicted of constructing and planting the bomb under Letelier's car, with a few Cuban-exiles. He received a light sentence. The Records Act forced the government to release unredacted the NSAM 263 and McNamara / Taylor Vietnam Trip Report to NARA and the public. Now we can be absolutely certain, without further argument, that 59,000 Americans were butchered needlessly in Vietnam and as a direct result of the 1963 assassination. Who do those facts threaten? Who stands to lose by the declassification of documents? Who has the connections and resources to besiege the White House with litigious peril over six or seven years?

I found something very disturbing. I suspect minor changes have been made to the ARRB report following my reading of it last year. I distinctly remember a sentence in the cited paragraph, Chapter 6 (I), H.4. "George Bush" -- stating that the ARRB had checked Pentagon records and was unable to locate the "Major General George Bush" in question. That statement is no longer included. And the thing is, since I never copied the page to my local hard drive last year, I can't prove it. But the point is this -- the individual suspected of having CIA connections in the early sixties was supposed to be campaigning for his party in Houston, Texas during 1962 and 1963. Unless he had had a marvelous career in the Reserves after World War II, I cannot explain the rank, and finally, how is it that Dulles uses the rank in the calendar? It still fits the profile of "cover identities" I mentioned (cover ID's for civilian CIA officers), but this second reading of the "same" page of the ARRB report doesn't support it as strongly as the "same" page I read last year. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To: NewsMakingNews: Sent: Monday, September 11, 2000 12: 29 AM Subject: FW: Lessons from Luce and Goebbels OK. Here's the deal. Less distinctly than my memory of the below-mentioned sentence in last year's reading of ARRB Final Report, Chap. 6(I), H.4., I vaguely recall typing it verbatim into some e-mail communication. That was before I started using Dragon Naturally Speaking voice-recognition, but it is possible that I did so. I will take some time to traipse through my Outlook archive files to find it. If I do, and if my memory is verified correct, I'll forward my earlier transcription. All of you can then do one of three things: (1) Write some tersely worded messages to your US Senators, trusting my veracity, (2) write some tersely worded messages to your US Senators, indifferent to my veracity but confident that they won't call your bluff, or (3) don't write to your US Senators. ----- Aloha, He'Ping, Om, Shalom, Salaam.
