I closely read about half of this -- scanned the latter half -- but the footnotes/
documentation at end are also very interesting.
This excerpt is not the focus of the link but it's interesteing re Iran-Contra . . . .
To support this cover-up of the Iran-Contra operations, witnesses had to be silenced.
“Navy Lt. Commander Alexander Martin was, in effect, the chief accountant for the Reagan/Bush drug
operations run by Marine Lt. Col. Oliver North, through an obscure arm of the White House National
Security Council called the National Programs Office. In a radio interview with talk show host Tom
Valentine last July, Martin spoke not only of drugs and money, but death. "Out of roughly 5,000 of us who
16
were originally involved in Iran-Contra, approximately 400, since 1986, have committed suicide, died
accidentally or died of natural causes. In over half those deaths, official death certificates were never
issued. In 187 circumstances, the bodies were cremated before the families were notified. "Martin then said
he was lying low.”97
“The Manhattan D.A. who closed the American branch (of the BCCI) announced that 16 witnesses had
died in the course of investigating the bank's entanglements in covert operations of the CIA, arms
smuggling to Iraq, money laundering and child prostitution.” 98
“From October 30th to Christmas eve there were four attempts to kill, me and our friend William Smith,
who everyone thinks is a high ranking Naval Intelligence officer. During that same time over fifty CIA
operatives, their wives and families were killed in an attempt by the Robert Gates faction of the CIA to
cover its tracks before Clinton's team came to power. After the last attempt on my life, my husband's SEAL
team arranged safe passage for me to Vienna, Austria, where I stayed until Robert Gates was removed as
Director of the CIA.”99
Ari Ben Menashe writes that Amiran Nir was assassinated to prevent his testimony at the trial of Oliver North. That
testimony would have implicated George H.W. Bush.100 Senator John Heinz and Senator Towers would later meet
the same fate as Amiran Nir – death by plane crash. The pattern of taking the lives of anyone who created a risk of
exposure of these National Security operations was repeated in 1991, and again in 2001.http://www.israelshamir.net/Contributors/Collateral_Damage_911.pdfAlso covers a lot of other stuff -- including "October Surprise" -- and Gates was heavily
involved in that.
Keep in mind that we still have $3.4 trillion or more/? missing from Pentagon funds.
