-Caveat Lector- Subject: [Spy News] Dick "Scratch my Back" Cheney Date: Fri, 29 Dec 2000 11:53:49 EST From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] AUDREY'S MISSILES A weekly newsletter dedicated to the peaceful reform of the United States government. CHENEY'S ROLE In his farewell address to the nation in 1961, President Dwight Eisenhower warned about the dangers of the military industrial complex. Eisenhower's warning should have been a wake up call, but America continued on her complacent path. With the end of the cold war, needs for military equipment should have dwindled, but it didn't happen that way. The arms manufacturers just shifted gears and began to redouble their lobbying efforts. There was still plenty of trouble in the world, and they used every means possible to make sure that the U.S. was involved. The money many of the corporations began to make in the drug trade gave them even greater access to the government, thus exacerbating the problem. The deepest (and most easily tapped) pocket belonged to Uncle Sam. You just had to know the right people. Dick Cheney, our newly elected Vice President, belongs to that group of people. He was Bush Senior's defense secretary and commanded the Pentagon during the Persian Gulf War. There he controlled the allocation of billions in government contract money, and he built relationships, especially with those who control oil resources (domestic and foreign), that have helped to put him where he is now. That is the way the game is played. You make sure the "right people" get government favors, and then when you need campaign money it is there. This guarantees that you will keep on giving favors to those people who furnished financial support when you needed it the most. In simple language, "You scratch my back, and I'll scratch yours." If we put aside all the speeches, press releases, and other spin doctor products, we get to the essence of the Cheney philosophy, because nothing tells more about a man than what he has actually done in the past. Cheney served as CEO of Halliburton from 1995 to 2000. To understand Cheney we need to understand Halliburton and their famous subsidiary, heavy construction and oil giant, Brown and Root. Once source says, (listed below) " A deeper look into history reveals that Brown and Root's past as well as the past of Dick Cheney himself, connect to the international drug trade on more than one occasion and in more than one way." It is on the record that Cheney supported Oliver North's bid for the U.S. Senate, even though North had been engaged in the "arms for drugs" deals in the Bush Administration. Any reasonably diligent researcher can find boatloads of information on Papa Bush's CIA drug dealings, from the Iran Contra affair, the downing of Eugene Hassenfaus's airplane, to the San Jose Mercury stories (Dark Alliance series) which were true, even though they were later retracted (no doubt, under heavy pressure). Cheney is a man with a history of four (now five) heart attacks; why did they choose him? The answer is plain. Dick Cheney's record at Halliburton is a link to the drug trade, and the Bush family felt that they could trust him. An attorney for a major Russian oil company which has been connected to heroin smuggling (and also a beneficiary of US backed loans for Brown and Root contracts in Russia) held a 2.2 million fund raiser for Bush-Cheney. And Dick Cheney, as Halliburton's largest individual shareholder ($45.5 million), has a vested interest in seeing to it that Brown and Root's successes continue. We know there will be no questions about heroin smuggling and probably no questions about sales of embargoed oil machinery to Saddam Hussein, but will anyone question Dick Cheney about his stock holdings? Some believe that relationships between key institutions, players and the Bushes themselves suggest that under Bush Junior's administration the Bush family and its allies may well be able to control the drug trade all the way from Medellin to Moscow.
