Analysis: Was Clinton Being Blackmailed by the Kremlin

Intelligence experts consulted by NewsMax.com cast serious doubt
on Yeltsin’s suggestion that the Lewinsky matter was a
Republican-inspired setup.

Lewinsky, for example, far from being an agent provocateur, was a
staunch defender of the president throughout the scandal. Her
affair only unraveled and became public in January of 1998 after
a chain of events involving her relationship was raised during
the Paula Jones civil suit against the president.

But the Yeltsin revelations raise several significant concerns:


*What knowledge did the Russians and other countries have of Bill
Clinton’s private life?

 Lewinsky testified under oath that during her steamy Oval Office
affair with the president, he said that he would not be able to
telephone her because a "foreign country" was tapping his White
House phone lines.

Lewinsky never specified what country Clinton believed was
surveilling his communications, but it raises the question of
whether Clinton’s relations with Lewinsky were discovered by the
Russians or other foreign intelligence agencies. *Was Clinton
being blackmailed?

 Intelligence experts have worried that the president’s private
life may have led to compromising him and, de facto, the
country’s national security.

Russia continues to operate a significant spy network in the
United States, a holdover of the Soviet days. Additionally,
Russia maintains a large communication-gathering spy station at
Lourdes, Cuba.

The old Soviet intelligence agencies used blackmail and extortion
to achieve their national interests, and there is no reason to
believe the Russians have stopped using those tactics. *Why has
Clinton turned a blind eye to Russian wrongdoing?

 Widespread sentiment in Russia today, and most certainly so
during the Yelstin years, was that the U.S. has supported a
corrupt Russian mafia at the expense of ordinary Russians.

 Clinton’s Russia policy has been masterminded by two people:
Vice President Al Gore and deputy Secretary of State Strobe
Talbot.

 Both have given the Russian government carte blanche as billions
have been siphoned off from Russian government accounts and
funneled to offshore banking centers.

One expert with a background in Russian matters notes: "From the
start of the relationship with Monica Lewinsky until Clinton
admitted it in public, that is, from November '95 until 17 August
'98, the fact of the relationship, the fact the Russians knew
about it quite early in '96 probably, the likelihood that Clinton
knew they knew, and that he wanted throughout this period to
cover it up all constitute a prima facie case for extortionary
pressure, real or felt. It is precisely in this period that we
funneled billions of dollars via the IMF and other channels, into
the Yeltsin campaign, into the debt pyramid, and into corruption
at the top."

 He notes with suspicion that "the Russian financial crash that
largely stopped this for a time occurred precisely on 17 August
1998."

 Root Scandal: National Security

 Despite the White House spin that the scandals that have plagued
the Clinton administration have been "just about sex," serious
concerns have been raised about whether the Clinton White House
could have been susceptible to extortion based on the president’s
private life.

 National security concerns have included:


*The president’s relationship with China. Under Clinton
administration policies, some of America’s most-guarded nuclear,
ballistic missile and encryption technologies have passed into
the hands of the Chinese. At the same time, according to FBI
reports, the Democratic National Committee received more than $10
million during the 1996 campaign. Russia’s continuing military
buildup. Despite its economic woes, Russia’s military continues
to modernize as it engages in a bloody war in Chechnya – yet the
administration remains silent and continues to pump billions into
Russia.
