It IS a complicated story. You should learn more about it. The short of it is, the guy who can bust the Bush Organized Crime Family is John Kerry. He has the goods on BCCI and how Bush and his old man fit in. I don't believe Wes Clark is involved, but I do know Jackson Stephens, Khalid bin Mahfouz, Ghaith Pharaon, Adnan Khashoggi, Clark Clifford, and Bert Lance are.
For those who don't know the story: GOOGLE Kerry and BCCI, Iran-Contra, Ollie North and drugs. Kerry, almost single-handedly, investigated BCCI and how the crooked bank was used by everyone from the CIA to Abu Nidhal to the Saudi rOils to Pakistani Intel. The bank even, illegally, owned an American bank, fronted by Democratic elder statesman attorney Clark Clifford, the same guy who co-authored the National Security Act of 1947, the bill that formed the CIA and the National Security Council.
Ollie the Traitor was so pissed his office (and, by extension, the National Security Council and Vice President Poppy Bush) was associated with drug running, he sicced the crack FBI counter-terror squad on Kerry, claiming he must be a commie because he shook hands with Manuel Ortega, democratically ELECTED president of Nicaragua, the target of the then-illegal Contras, secretly armed by North and his Iranian business connections and several of the the world's leading narcoterrorists.
So, as President, Kerry would tie BCCI, Iraq-gate, contra-cocaine to Bush Crime Family — for starters. Imagine what someone with a mandate from the American voters, backed by the rank and file of the intelligence community and the men and women in the officer and enlisted ranks in the military and the union members of the US would do. Certainly a heck of a lot more than W’s smarmy attempt at covering up 9-11 by naming Henry Kissinger to head the commission.
Back to Kerry: Here’s what the Federation of American Scientists have to say about Senator Kerry and the investigation of BCCI. The CIA and President Poppy Doc Bush did everything possible to stonewall Kerry and buy time to shred away. Sounds familiar with 9-11, where the GOP Congress (backed by their toadies in the Conservative DEM Caucus) has unquestioningly picked up Bush’s bloody laundry.
BCCI, THE CIA AND FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE
IntroductionExcerpt:
On May 14, 1991, Senator Kerry wrote CIA Director Webster to again request the briefing paper on BCCI prepared by the CIA, as well as information on the CIA's own use of the bank. No reply was received in response to this letter from the CIA for over two months, during which BCCI was closed globally following its seizure in the United Kingdom by the Bank of England on July 5, 1991.
In the meantime, cleared staff requested a formal briefing from CIA staff concerning the CIA's knowledge of BCCI's activities. The CIA provided an oral briefing at its offices in June, 1991 at the "secret" level, consisting of very general information concerning BCCI's use by drug traffickers, material which was by then already largely a matter of public record. The briefer provided by the CIA to Congressional staff was unfamiliar with other basic information about BCCI, such as the names of BCCI's shareholders, including former Saudi intelligence chief Kamal Adham, the key figure in BCCI's secret takeover of First American, and the CIA's former principal contact in the Arab Middle East. Further, the briefer also appeared to be ignorant of the principal analytic documents concerning BCCI previously prepared by the CIA and disseminated to Executive Branch agencies, which contained this and other more important information about BCCI.(4)
On July 23, 1991, CIA director Webster replied to Senator Kerry's May 14 request by letter, admitting to the existence of two documents concerning BCCI, which were described as "extremely sensitive" and therefore restricted to being held by the Senate intelligence committee.(5) On reviewing these memoranda, Senator Kerry recognized that the earlier of the two documents, created in early 1986, contained startling information -- that the First American Bank in Washington was secretly owned by BCCI. The distribution list attached to the memorandum indicated that the CIA had communicated this information at the time to the Treasury Department. These was no indication that either Treasury or the CIA had ever advised the Federal Reserve, the primary regulator of First American, of this critical information.
Senator Kerry asked Judge Webster to declassify immediately the fact that the CIA had known as of 1986 that BCCI owned First American, and to begin the process of declassifying the entirety of both memoranda. On July 31, 1991, the CIA advised Senator Kerry that he could reveal the information concerning BCCI's secret ownership of First American, but no other information from the memos. The CIA had not yet acknowledged its own use of BCCI to the Subcommittee, or provided access to any other materials prepared by the CIA concerning BCCI.CONTINUED…
