In reply to the discussion: New NSA docs contradict Bush Administration 9-11 claims [View all]Octafish
(55,745 posts)31. Bill White's attorney vs James R Bath was John "Smear Boat" O'Neill.
Dallas. BCCI. Selection 2000. They are all connected.
Case in point: The bad John O'Neill got his start going up against the war hero John Kerry in the early 70s also pops up in the BCCI-bin Mahfouz-Laden-James R Bath part of the BFEE story. In Bill White's law suit against James R Bath (Reppin' the Houses of bin Laden, bin Mahfouz and bin Bush), John O'Neill kept telling Bill White that they had made their case against the judge and that he knew the judge and that the judge would rule in their favor. Never happened. Wonder if White suspected at the time his attorney -- John "Smear Boat" O'Neill -- haad greased the case FOR his opponent was connected to the BFEE?
From the CBC interview:
HE QUOTES THE NAME OF GEORGE BUSH
Oh absolutely.
SENIOR OR JUNIOR?
Senior. He said that he would call the politically appointed Judges and I would never get due process. And that really is what motivated me to fight the fight in the courts. I couldnt believe in the aftermath of all of us risking our lives fighting for the system that we could be denied our rights of due process under law. I just couldnt believe that. Unfortunately I thought it was a bluff, but it turned out to be true because what he predicted is precisely what happened. I thought it was Bath who was blowing smoke so I resisted and I said: Jim, Im not going to sue you, Im not going to go report these Saudi dealings to the DAs Office. I just dont want to be in Business with you anymore. Then I called my Attorney and I didnt instruct him to file a lawsuit. I said please look at our Partnership agreement and find out how I can become a Businessman independent of Jim Bath. I just dont want to be involved in all this. Well, I never had that luxury because Bath and the Bank that was laundering the Saudi money inundated me in lawsuits. I had four criminal chargesand I think twenty-eight lawsuits that were filed against me concurrently. And it just dominated my life. Fortunately I was able to get legal representation. The best lawyers in Houston took up my case on a contingency fee basis. They filed counter claims against Bath alleging Saudi influence peddling with the Bush family, although in retrospect when I read my own legal pleadings, the lawyers were very careful to remove a lot of the references to the threats and avoided using the Bin Laden,the Bin Mahfouz the Bush name. And I would ask my own lawyers, why arent you stating succinctly the nature of the Baths threat?. And theyd say: Well Bill, you know we dont want to make the Judges angry. We have to be very careful.
AND IT WASNT THAT THEY DIDNT BELIEVE THOSE LINKS WERE TRUE, IT WAS JUST THE OPPOSITE. THEY BELIEVED THEM ?
[font color="green"] They believed the links to be true. Theyre afraid of backlash from the Judges. One of my many Lawyers, John ONeill of Porter and Clements, was actually the campaign manager of one of the Republican judges who poured me out every case - Judge Lewis Moore,. And when John found out that my case was assigned to Judge Moore he said: Bill, weve got this case made-in-the-shade. He said: This guy - Im his campaign manager. I raise funds for his reelection. No problem. And then wed get into the courtroom and be poured out without a trial. And John would shake his head and comment: The Judge must have gone crazy. I cant believe it, hes never treated me this way. [/font color]
SNIP...
WHEN GEORGE BUSH SENIOR WAS REPLACED AS DIRECTOR OF THE CIA, WHERE DID HE GO?
He came to Houston where he became affiliated with a Bank in Houston called FIB, First International Bank. And that was the bank that Bath used to deposit the Saudi money. Thats where the Bin Laden revolving line of credit was. The name changed in 1980 to InterFirst Bank from FIB but it was the same bank.
AND YOU SAY HE WAS CONNECTED WITH THIS BANK. WHAT WAS GEORGE BUSH SENIORS INTEREST?
He was Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Bank.
SO THATS MORE THAN CONNECTED.
Well, more than connected. Yes.
FUNDAMENTAL ROLE.
He was the principal player. This is no coincidence at all. This is all arranged. It was all arranged at the time that Bush made his quid pro quo relationship with the Saudis.
SO NO COINCIDENCE AS FAR AS YOURE CONCERNED THAT THE SAUDI MONEY AND THE MONEY THAT BATHS DOING BUSINESS WITH, ENDS UP AT GEORGE BUSH SENIORS BANK?
No this is no coincidence at all. This is all arranged. It was all arranged at the time that Bush made his quid pro quo relationship with the Saudis. My understanding of it is that Bath represented the Bush interests and Bin Laden/Bin Mahfouz interchangeably represented the Saudi Royal Family interests. People who have tried to villify the Bin Laden family or the Bin Mahfouz family fail to realize that the Saudis have a very patriarchal society and that according to Bath, neither of those families sneeze without the Saudi Royals blessing. I mean everything they do is at the beholding at the Saudi Royal Family. As a matter of fact, Bin Mahfouz Bank NCB is the only Bank that was not nationalized in Saudi Arabia. All the rest of the Banks were nationalized in 1974 except National Commercial Bank (NCB) which is privately owned by Bin Mahfouz. Thats where the Saudi Royals keep all their personal money.

Small world for the connected. The rest of us un-connecteds are here to carry their bags and pay their tabs.
PS: You are most correct, blm-san. The answer is: "None." It's Fast & Furious 24/7.
