US "private military contractors" already in-country
to "deal with" Venezuela’s President Hugo Chavez
Frias...

Intelligence agencies are revealing that US private
military contractors, active in Colombia "under
various contract umbrellas, including
counter-narcotics and counter-insurgency" are building
up to yet another attempted coup d’etat against
Venezuela’s President Hugo Chavez.

Carefully described as "private military contractors"
(a.k.a. hired mercenary killers), the PMCs are known
already to have conducted several incursions across
the Colombia-Venezuela border to link up with rebel
units of the Venezuelan military operating along the
border badlands between the two countries.

Senior officials at the US Pentagon have authorized
the intruder operation as part of a plan to make it
appear that Chavez is militarily assisting the
Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC).

The US mercenaries have also established close links
with right-wing Colombian paramilitaries (AUC) and
their associated drug cartels to smuggle weapons into
Venezuela.

Attached to the Pentagon’s Joint Staff, a Colombian
General is participating in a joint foreign military
"interaction plan" sponsored by the US Defense
Department in Washington D.C. to coordinate "force
development" and "scenario simulation" invasive
techniques at the behest of the US Joint Staff
Command.

Intel sources also say that an Opus Dei (Roman
Catholic) espionage and political assassination team
operating in the United States is in the background of
a case where a former Marine aide, Leandro Aragoncilla
... a US Vice Presidential staffer and FBI agent ...
has been accused of espionage at the White House.

Aragoncilla was arrested recently on charges of
illegally obtaining classified documents from US Vice
President Dick Cheney’s office and FBI computer which
were passed to Philippine opposition figures linked to
Opus Dei in the Philippines in preparation for a coup
d’etat against that country’s President, Gloria
Macapagal-Arroyo.

Opus Dei elements are known also to have played a
major role in supporting the April 2002 coup d’etat
against Venezuela’s President Hugo Chavez Frias which
continues a wider espionage and political black bag
operation with support and logistics approved by
highest levels within the Pentagon and the FBI.

A classified intelligence report leaked to this
e-publication shows that the espionage ring has
operating out of US Vice President Dick Cheney’s
office with the implicit approval from within the Bush
administration.

Intel sources are also revealing more paper trails
linking George H. W. Bush to the now defunct Al Taqwa
("Fear of God") bank operated on behalf of Osama Bin
Laden, his family, and some of his closest business
associates.

The network of Swiss-based terrorist financiers is
also linked to the Muslim Brotherhood and prominent
European fascist leaders. The Al Taqwa bank was
headquartered in the Italian Swiss enclave Campione
d’Italia and had offices in the Bahamas. It ceased
operations after assets were blocked by a US Treasury
Department order, its assets were frozen by the Swiss
government, and its banking license was revoked by the
Bahamas.

Al Taqwa subsequently changed its name to Nada
Management Organization. Al Taqwa and a complex web of
affiliate front companies and brass plates in
Switzerland, the Bahamas, Italy, Saudi Arabia, Jersey,
Isle of Man, Turkey, Kuwait, Afghanistan, Bosnia,
Croatia, Slovenia, the United States (Delaware and
Texas), Germany, Belgium, Albania, Ethiopia, Eritrea,
Somalia, Sudan, Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Austria,
Bahrain, Singapore, Thailand, Bangladesh, Pakistan,
and Liechtenstein were reportedly involved in funding
terrorist operations around the world, including the
procurement of nuclear material from the former Soviet
Union through Baltic intermediaries.

According to a EUROPOL diagram obtained by WMR, these
companies included Iksir Holding, SA (Italy), Asat
Trust (Liechtenstein), Iksir Ltd. (Bahamas), Gulf
Center (Italy), NASCO (Turkey), Nasreddin
International Group (Liechtenstein), Akida Bank
(Bahamas), MIGA (Switzerland), and Nasreddin
Foundation (Liechtenstein).

According to intelligence sources in the United States
and Europe, the Al Taqwa network intersected with
tranches in Geneva and the Isle of Man that involve
front companies associated with George H. W. Bush and
Enron: Topaz Liberty, Bluelake World, and Potomac
Capital.

Iranian fraudster and neocon Pentagon contact Manucher
Ghorbanifar, Saudi billionaire Adnan Khashoggi and
members of the Bin Laden family are reportedly linked
to Geneva-based Potomac Capital ... a front company
created by George H. W. Bush when he was CIA Director
in 1976.

Interestingly, it was George W. Bush, who, in November
2001, cited Al Taqwa as part of Al Qaeda’s
money-laundering activities.

However, Bush’s neocon allies at The Washington Times
and World Net Daily quickly altered course and drew
attention away from Al Taqwa’s Saudi and Kuwaiti
investors and began to erroneously link Al Taqwa to
Saddam Hussein’s Iraq. Further criminal investigations
of Al Taqwa’s principals were also quickly dropped.

Potomac Capital appeared on the radar screen of
Federal investigators during the Iran-Contra
investigation conducted in the late 1980s and early
1990s. The Al Taqwa connection to weapons of mass
destruction proliferation, Bin Laden, and George H. W.
Bush and his business associates stands as another
reason the George W. Bush administration leaked the
CIA’s Brewster Jennings & Associates counter-WMD
network. The CIA counter-proliferation team was
getting uncomfortably close to tying members of the
Bush family and their business associates to the same
financial networks that fund Osama Bin Laden and his
"Al Qaeda" network.

Intel sources have also traced a possible second
connection between the Swiss network connected to
George H. W. Bush and other 9/11 hijackers.

The first connection concerned hijacker Fayyaz Ahmed
and a US doll.50,000 check he received from a tranche
connected to the Swiss network. The second is the
listing of Ahmed Mesfer Ahmed Alghamdi as a
shareholder of Al Taqwa on a Central Bank of the
Bahamas document dated April 15, 2000. Ahmed Alghamdi
and Hamza Alghamdi were two of the Saudi hijackers on
board United Flight 175, which struck the South Tower
of the World Trade Center. Saeed Alghamdi was one of
the hijackers on board United Flight 93, which crashed
in Pennsylvania after being shot down by US military
fighter planes (according to an NSA employee who was
on duty in the National Security Operations Center on
the morning of 9/11).

According to the FBI, the Alghamdi hijackers used a
number of aliases. Ahmed Alghamdi used the names Ahmed
Saeed Saleh Alghamdi, Ahmed Mohammed Alghamdi, Saeed
Alghamdi, Ahmed Saleh, and Juan Poncho Bennett. Hamza
Alghamdi used Saleh Alghamdi Hamzah. Saeed Alghamdi
used Mohsalih Alghamdi, Mokhlidmazid Almotairi,
Saeedayed Alghamdi, and Saeed H. Alghamdi. Other
Alghamdis wanted by the FBI for involvement with "Al
Qaeda" include Nora Alghamdi, Ali A. Alghamdi,
Abdulrahman Alghamdi, Othman Alghamdi, Sadda Alghamdi
and Tareqsaeed Alghamdi.

Now, more information has been gleaned from
knowledgeable intelligence sources about the secret
UNOCAL, Enron, and Taliban negotiations over the
Central Asian Gas pipeline (CentGas). The source of
the 10 billion doll. was the Saudi Royal family and
the recipient was Enron’s LJM1 off-the-books
partnership, also known as LJM Cayman, LP. LJM1 was
primarily set up to finance the CentGas pipeline deal.
Convicted Enron Executive Vice President and Chief
Financial Officer Andrew J. Fastow was the managing
member of the LJM1 partners. In addition to Barclays,
the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce was also
allegedly used to transfer the 10 billion doll. to the
Enron account.

Two criminal investigations in New York are getting
close to exposing a major Bush family and associates’
international money-laundering operation that has
spanned more than a generation and has been used to
illegally fund US elections since the Nixon era.

According to CIA sources, most Bush family assets are
tied up in off-shore accounts that are masked from
investigators through the use of pass through
companies and secretive interlocking board
directorships.

The investigations of the secret Bush money tranches
are coming to the fore as New York Attorney General
Eliot Spitzer focuses in on the scandal involving
Maurice "Hank" Greenberg and the inflation of the
worth of American Insurance Group (AIG) through shady
affiliates, including AIG reinsurer Coral Re of
Barbados.

Greenberg was the CEO of AIG but was forced to step
down amid the Spitzer probe. AIG was founded from Asia
Life/CV Starr, a Shanghai-based international
import/export and insurance firm founded in 1919 by
Cornelius V. Starr, an Office of Strategic Services
(OSS) operative in Southeast Asia during World War II.

AIG’s largest shareholder is Starr International
Company (SICO), an off-shore corporation incorporated
in Panama with headquarters in Bermuda.

Kenneth Starr, the independent counsel who prosecuted
President Clinton, is the nephew of Cornelius Starr.

Greenberg inherited the CEO job and Chairmanship from
Starr as well as the .5 billion Starr Foundation.

Another probe by Manhattan District Attorney Robert
Morgenthau is focused on long-time Bush backers Sam
and Charles Wyly of Texas and a Bank of America
off-shore account in the Isle of Man. According to
intelligence sources, that probe is getting very close
to an Isle of Man multi-billion dollar account
controlled by the Bushes through an off-shore
contrivance known as Five Star Trust.

Charles Wyly serves on the board of the University of
Texas Investment Management Company (UTIMCO). Critics
have charged that hundreds of millions of dollars of
UTIMCO’s 11 billion doll. in public funds have been
steered to investment funds run by Bush family friends
and supporters. A number of UTIMCO’s past and current
directors are members of George W. Bush’s "100,000
doll. Club." These include, in addition to Wyly,
former UTIMCO chairman Tom Hicks, a vice chairman of
Clear Channel and head of Muse, Tate & Furst, Inc.; L.
Lowry Mays, the chairman of Clear Channel; former
Texas Representative and current lobbyist Tom Loeffler
(who received illegal laundered campaign contributions
from the failed Vernon Savings & Loan); A. W. Riter, a
former chairman of NCNB Bank in Tyler, Texas; A. R.
"Tony" Sanchez, Chairman of Sanchez-O’Brien Oil & Gas,
owner of the Texas border-based International Bank of
Commerce and the failed Tesoro Savings & Loan; and
Woody Hunt, Chairman of Hunt Building Company. Some of
UTIMCO’s investments were directed to firms with close
ties to Bush "Pioneer" contributors Lee Bass (Bass
Brothers Enterprises), Henry Kravis (Kohlberg Kravis
Roberts), and Charles Wyly (Maverick Capital Fund), as
well as George W. and H.W. Bush (The Carlyle Partners
II Fund, managed by The Carlyle Group).

Texas money laundering is the tip of an Bush family
financial iceberg that extends below the surface to
shady financial deals around the globe. However,
investigators who dare venture into Texas will have
their jobs cut out for them. The Bushes have been
major recipients of campaign cash from senior partners
the largest law firms in Texas — Vinson & Elkins,
Baker Botts (law firm of James Baker III), Andrews
Kurth (the law firm of contentious US District Judge
Priscilla Owen), Jenkins & Gilchrist, Haynes Boone and
Bracewell & Patterson — that have also been involved
in defending those Texas companies and principals who
have benefited from massive illegal financial flows.
