The Venice airport— where Mohamed Atta's hijackers made their base in the U.S. – has been home to spooks and spies for at least a generation.

[....]

A honest POSTER (as a corollary to honest prosecuter,see above ) would admit at this point that there is a Hilliard = CIA = 911 connection. (Gaal)

LOL another overblown, ridiculously long wall of text, you obviously went for quantity over quality. I skim/scanned it which I assume is more than 99% of people following this thread. Nowhere did I see any evidence of ties between Hilliard and Brady/Phoenix let alone the CIA. He seems to have been involved in drug running but being busted by the DEA would indicate he was not a USG asset. Despite your attempting to portray this collage of crap as your friend's original research it is all stuff cut n' pasted from others, almost entirely from the discredited Danny Codstroker. Several of your links don't work, those that do prove little and are often based on anonymous or otherwise questionable sources That which is reliably confirmed do little to prove your claims.

BLACKJADE

Note that Wallace Hilliard and two BCCI investors, Iran-Contra arms dealer Adnan Khashoggi and Saudi intelligence director Kamal Adham, "bought Huffman Aviation in 1999 and hired Rudi Dekkers to run it."

#######################################################################

What does this have to do with Huffman Aviation? For a start, check out Adnan Khashoggi and Kamal Adham from the BCCI. Huffman Aviation became somewhat of a "joint venture" between Dekkers and Hilliard, who seemed to manage it together. In 1999, "Hilliard loaned Dekkers $1.7-million to buy Huffman Aviation at the airport in Venice." By 2003, Hilliard and Dekkers were fighting over the terms of various "loans" and other business transactions. Evidently Kamal Adham and Adnan Khashoggi were also shareholders in Huffman with Hilliard: Oryx Investments - Wallace Hilliard and the Lear Jet:

"In 1974 in Sharjah, United American Emirate, (1) Sheik Kamal Adham, director of Saudi intelligence, and Adnan Khashoggi started Oryx Investments, however the Sheik's bonds with Khashoggi and the CIA were forged decades earlier, with the incorporation of Barrick.

The company’s seed investors were Saudis with Agency ties, including Shiek Kamal Adham, Adnan Khashoggi, and Prince Nawaf bin Abdul Aziz (a major investor in Barrick, codenamed “Tumbleweed” by his CIA contacts). (2) By 1978, Adham was worth roughly $134 million. (3)

Together with Wallace Hilliard they bought Huffman Aviation in 1999 and hired Rudi Dekkers to run it......

In July of 2000 a Lear Jet (N351WB) was busted at the Orlando Executive Airport with over 43 lbs of heroin. It is funny that Jeb Bush also used the jet once for free of course (7). The plane was owned by Wallace J. Hilliard (6)

The Orlando Sentinel hailed the bust as "the largest seizure in Central Florida's history."....."

"The owner of Huffman Aviation, Wallace J. Hilliard, was implicated in international heroin trafficking, and had had his Lear jet permanently seized by the DEA after it was caught carrying 43 lbs. of heroin in Orlando on July 25, 2000"? THE 9.11 HEROIN CONNECTION: The Biggest Censored Story of the 21st Century:

"Just three weeks after Mohamed Atta and Marwan Al-Shehhi arrived on July 3, 2000 to attend the flight school at Huffman Aviation in Venice, FL., the owner of the flight school, Wallace J. Hilliard, had his Learjet surrounded by DEA agents with submachine guns on the runway of Orlando Executive Airport.

Agents found 43 pounds of heroin, arrested everyone onboard, and confiscated the plane.

Any honest prosecutor in the country would have instantly linked the huge heroin haul discovered on the flight school owner’s plane to Mohamed Atta’s arrival at his flight school, and understood that he was looking into the heart of a continuing criminal conspiracy.

Before 9/11, someone with big clout in the Bush Administration was buying heroin from Osama bin Laden."

Well, any "honest prosecutor" could have gone back to Hamburg, where Atta lived for years. As I said in this post, Re: After 2 Years, a Sign of a 9/11 Suspect, Atta & Al-Shehhi had a Hamburg mentor, Mohammed Haydar Zammar, "an elder statesman of the mujahedeen movement, who fought in Afghanistan and the Balkans." In 1991, Zammar had gone to Afghanistan and Pakistan for jihad camp training, on a German passport. Then he "fought alongside Hekmatyar's troops against the communist Afghan regime." In 1995 Zammar "went to fight in Bosnia, where he was based in Zenica with other Arab mujaheddin." This was none other than Gulbuddin Hekmatyar, the CIA's own Afghan drug lord! Well, what a "coincidence." As far back as 1991, "military investigators had been detailed to Hamburg Germany, tracking what one military investigator who was there told us were 'Al Qaeda heroin flows' from Afghanistan to the West." The CIA and their German counterparts conveniently "renditioned" Zammar to Syria, where he is out of the reach of anyone who could question him about his relations with Hekmatyar. Note that Zammar was sending some of his Hamburg "students" to jihadist training camps. Recently one of them, Said Bahaji, had a German passport, which was found in South Waziristan. Wana is the capital of South Waziristan: http://www.atimes.com/atimes/south_asia/fg20df05.html

" Different commanders of the Afghan resistance belonging to the Hezb-i-Islami Afghanistan (under Gulbuddin Hekmatyar) and other organizations established underground bunkers where they stored their heavy ammunition. The US Central Intelligence Agency, which had been drawn into Afghanistan's affairs to counter its Cold War rival, the Soviet Union, financed thousands of Arab fighters to gather in and around Wana, where many purchased land and established base camps and training centers...."

Their friends in Hamburg said that Atta and Al-Shehhi "wanted to go to Chechnya and then Kosovo, only landing in a Qaeda camp in Afghanistan as a third choice." Any "honest prosecutor" could also have looked into Atta's Chechnya and Kosovo connections. With regard to Chechnya, "the main rebel leaders Shamil Basayev and Al Khattab were trained and indoctrinated in CIA sponsored camps in Afghanistan and Pakistan," such as the "Amir Muawia camp, set up in the early 1980s by the CIA and ISI and run by famous Afghani warlord Gulbuddin Hekmatyar." Basayev's "organization had also developed extensive links to criminal syndicates in Moscow as well as ties to Albanian organized crime and the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA)." Not surprisingly, Chechen gangs "control the central link in the heroin chain that remarkably enough ends in Kosovo." Richard Secord from Iran-Contra and other US intelligence operatives "under the cover of an oil company, MEGA Oil," brought Hekmatyar's mujahideen trainees into Azerbaijan:

"Hekmatyar, who at the time was still allied with bin Laden, was "observed recruiting Afghan mercenaries [i.e. Arab Afghans] to fight in Azerbaijan against Armenia and its Russian allies."[20] At this time, heroin flooded from Afghanistan through Baku into Chechnya, Russia, and even North America...."

In Afghanistan, the Akhwan-ul-Muslimeen (or Muslim Brotherhood) was "founded in 1969 by Gulbuddin Hekmatyar and Dr. Syed Burhanuddin Rabbani. Based in Afghanistan, this faction had strong links to the better known Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt." Mohammed Haidar Zammar belonged to the Syrian Muslim Brotherhood. Historically, the Syrian and Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood found haven in Germany. Atta's father was a Muslim Brotherhood attorney in Cairo. At Cairo University, Atta himself belonged to an "engineering syndicate," which "was an unofficial base for the Muslim Brotherhood." Then he headed for Hamburg, where he fit right in with Zammar's group. And there are plenty of signs that the Obama administration, like previous administrations, is still keeping their channels to Hekmatyar open. US floats Hekmatyar-Karzai power sharing formula. Hekmatyar "boasted to the BBC," that he "help[ed] Osama bin Laden escape from Tora Bora after the US-led Allied Forces invaded Afghanistan." But certainly he knew that the US would not necessarily hold this against him. See:NOW IS THE TIME: Reopen the 9/11 investigation

Get back to us with documentation for the claim Khashogi was an owner of Huffman or did business with Hilliard. The only evidence Hopsicker cited was a supposed “aviation executive”, your friend's link was dead and the page is NOT on the Wayback Machine.

Myron Du Bain

Together with Wallace Hilliard they bought Huffman Aviation in 1999 and hired Rudi Dekkers to run it. (3) Sander Hickes, a reporter for the Long Island Press found that Hilliard also did business with Myron Du Bain, who worked alongside late ex-CIA director John McCone on the boards of several banks.

Du Bain was chairman of the Fireman's Fund Insurance Company in 1981 when the company announced plans to acquire Employers Health, an insurance company co-founded by Hilliard. (10)

In July of 2000 a Lear Jet (N351WB) was busted at the Orlando Executive Airport with over 43 lbs of heroin. It is funny that Jeb Bush also used the jet once for free of course (7). The plane was owned by Wallace J. Hilliard (6)

N351WB.jpg

N351WB (5)

The Orlando Sentinel hailed the bust as "the largest seizure in Central Florida's history." However the bust had been an accident, carried out by low-level DEA operatives who didn't understand it. According to Hopsicker this wasn't the only time Hilliard's name came up in connection with narcotics trafficking. (8)

Hilliard bought his Learjet from World Jet Inc. which was owned by the notorious drug smuggling Whittington brothers of Fort Lauderdale, Florida who sold later sold it to Barry Seal. (9) After the heroin bust the jet was sold to Wagner and Brown, big George W. Bush donors ($115,000).

A Strange Series of Coincidences.

Adnan Khashoggi, of BBCI/Iran-Contra fame started Barrick Gold, along with Peter Munk back in

1985. In 1995 Bush 41 went to work for Barrick Gold, as an international consultant. It's

safe to say he still had contact with Khashoggi.

Khalid bin Mahfouz, Khashoggi's banker, who was once the director of BCCI, set up a charity

organization called the Muwaffaq Foundation in 1992. He funded this charity with $30 million.

In October 2001, the US Treasury Department labeled Muwaffaq Foundation a front for Al-Qaeda.

Incidentally, The CIA used BCCI to launder money back in the bad old days of Iran-Contra.

Yasin al-Qadi, who ran the Muwaffaq charity, was named a supporter of terrorism by the US

Treasury, which then froze his assets. Al-Qadi was also one of the "angel investors" in the

founding of PTech, a firm whose clients include US federal branches and agencies, FAA, FBI, DoD

and the White House.

To add to the madness, in the mid-90s Sheik Kamal Adham and Adnan Khashoggi started Oryx Investments - which then, with Wallace Hilliard, opened up Huffman Aviation. The following year, Hilliard's LearJet was stopped on the runway at Orlando Executive Airport by armed DEA agents, yet his company remains open, and he remains free. Huffman Aviation just happens to be one of the schools at which

Mohamed Atta and his co-conspirators received flying lessons.

Khalid bin Mahfouz sister Kaleda, by some coincidence, is one of Usama bin Laden’s wives.

Way back when in 1977 Salem bin Laden invested in Arbusto Oil with W. Later, in 1988 when he

died, his interest in the company passed on to Khalid bin Mahfouz who, at the behest of Salem,

also gave money to the Mujaheddin in Afghanistan to support their effort against the Soviets.

James Bath, who happens to be a close friend of *, managed the holdings of Khalid bin Mahfouz.

Prince Bandar's wife (that would be the infamous Bandar Bush), Princess Haifa bint Faisal,

apparently sent money to Omar al-Bayoumi, a man who later helped two of the hijackers to obtain

housing, social security cards, and arrange for flight school lessons. Omar al-Bayoumi moved

to England several months later and has disappeared. Interestingly enough, the checks kept

coming, now going to Majeda Dweikat, whose husband was a vocal supporter of al Qaeda, the

checks stopped when he was deported.

Fahad al-Thumairy was an official from the Saudi Arabian consulate’s section on Islamic and

cultural affairs, and a prayer leader at a local mosque in LA. He met privately with al-Bayoumi

before he picked up the hijackers.

Al-Bayoumi’s monthly stipend comes from the company, Ercan (which contracted with Dallah Avco

Aviation, a Saudi government contractor). Salem Kamel owned Dallah Avco Aviation, which

provided the salary of al-Bayoumi. He has been named a member of the “Golden Chain” that

provides money to UBL and al-Qaeda regularly. al-Bayoumi was given $3,000 per month for a

project in Saudi Arabia even though he was living in the United States. al-Bayoumi showed up

for work once and the supervisor wanted to fire him but was told Ercan’s contract would be

terminated.

The bin Laden family was financing terrorists via Al Taqwa "Fear of God" and other means.

Founder and Director Ahmed Idriss Nasreddin worked for bin Laden Group, and two sisters of

Usama bin Laden are also shareholders in Al Taqwa. It is, therefore, doubtful that the bin

Laden family truly disowned Usama.

Two bin Laden brothers, Abdullah and Omar, are affiliated with the World Assembly of Muslim

Youth (WAMY). The FBI investigated them from February to September 1996. Abdullah bin Laden was

the US director of WAMY and lived with Omar in Falls Church, Virginia. Four of the 9/11

hijackers lived at the WAMY office address at the same time the two bin Laden brothers were

there. US officials testified to the 9/11 Commission that WAMY has helped carry out terrorist

attacks. A September 2002 search of a home of five al-Qaeda suspects found bin Laden family

members’ passports.

Meanwhile, a $700 million no-bid contract goes to Bechtel and their partner the Saudi bin Laden Group, before the 2004 election.

According to a 1996 U.S. State Department report, al-Shamal Islamic Bank in Khartoum, Sudan,

was capitalized by bin Laden and wealthy members of Sudan’s National Islamic Front. Bin Laden

invested $50 million in the bank. Mohammed al-Faisal, Princess Haifa bint Faisal’s brother, is

an investor and board member at al-Shamal.

We knew about this bank, and his relationship with BCCI as well, but it was overlooked, because

he wasn't a 'focus of U.S. terrorism concerns.'

New details of suspected terrorist Usama bin Laden's finances emerged Wednesday in a Senate

Finance Committee hearing on money laundering.

Among other things, the committee learned of a bank established by bin Laden with links to

banks around the world and bank accounts at the fraud-ridden Bank of Credit and Commerce

International, which was closed in the early 1990s.

This tidbit of information had been in the possession of U.S. investigators as long as a decade

ago, but overlooked, a senator testified. This is because bin Laden had not then been

identified as a focus of U.S. terrorism concerns.

Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., who conducted an investigation into the fraud-ridden Bank of Credit

and Commerce International, said bin Laden held a number of accounts with BCCI.

"When we shut it down, we dealt him a very serious economic blow." Kerry said.

The Pakistani government was also financing al Qaeda and we knew it, yet did nothing.

Bob Kerrey, of the 9/11 Commission stated on the record the the Pakistanis gave money to and

"benefited enormously from their relationship with the Taliban and al Qaeda.' He wasn't sure

that there was a quid pro quo with the Saudis, however. He also stated that the findings were

'based almost entirely on information known to officials in both the Clinton and Bush

administrations, most of it as early as 1997.'

This traces back to Hopsmoker, he at times has claimed the happened on July 22 in some articles and July 25 in others he also has claimed the amount seized as "over 30" or 45 lbs.

LOL 1st you claimed, without any evidence, that Hilliard was linked to the CIA through Mike Brady, but then unable document a connection between the two claimed, once again without any evidence, he was tied to Khashoggi now unable document a connection between those two you claim, once again without any evidence, he was tied to this character. You know the drill, get back to us with a citation.

FOX NEWS COMES CLEAN!

FOX NEWS CONFIRMS BLISTERING STORY IN RARE EXAMPLE OF JOURNALISTIC TRUTH-TELLING

By Philip A. Carney CPW News Services

Rarely will Fox News confirm a story as damning to the Bush and Reagan legacies and as affirming of a journalistic outsider. Daniel Hospicker, an independent journalist, claims that 911 was a drug deal gone bad. Hopsicker's story is "truly what happened" according to “Flapping Jowls” a Fox News reporter who is the equivalent of Woodward and Bernstein’s “Deep Throat”. <a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XWjdIXnayNQ/UQbtMCkXRlI/AAAAAAAAFrs/z-VilQNPfPI/s1600/dubain.wisconsinpaperarticle.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto">dubain.wisconsinpaperarticle.png1982 Wisconsin paper confirms relationship of Wally Hilliard of Huffman Flying

School to Myron Du Bain of SRI and Fireman's Fund Insurance Co.

“The head terrorist of the 911 hijacking, Mohammed Atta, was trained at the Huffman Aviation's flying school in Venice, Florida which was owned by Wallace J. Hilliard. Hilliard’s workers were arrested in Orlando, Florida by low ranking DEA officers as his jet landed with millions of dollars of heroin on board on July 25, 2000. Any connections between Hilliard and the Bush family that might derail the George W. Bush presidential campaign in the run up to the November election could have been devastating for the Bush legacy. Hilliard had business ties to Myron Du Bain, an early member of the OSS and a CIA operative, twice President of the Stanford Research Institute (SRI) known for mind science experiments including the use of LSD for psychological warfare for the U.S. intelligence agencies,” said Flapping Jowls who cited the following quoted from a yet to be confirmed source.....

Edgar Valles Diaz was arrested on Wally Hilliard’s Lear jet (N351WB) at Orlando Executive Airport on July 25, 2000, in what the Orlando Sentinel called “the biggest bust in Central Florida history.” The paper quoted officials stating it was “the largest find of its kind in the southeastern United States in recent years.”

“Du Bain was also a member of San Francisco’s Bohemian Club as well as a San Francisco dinner club which he started with Mercer Gordon Gaddy and Secretary of State George Shultz that employed future Secretary of Defense, Donald Rumsfeld, when he was unable to find work in the public sector. Du Bain’s main fortunes had come from his position as CEO of Fireman’s Fund Insurance, the San Francisco insurance company that was number ten in revenues in the U.S., an agency that would merge with American Express.

In 1982 Wallace J. "Wally" Hilliard’s insurance company, Wisconsin Employers Insurance Group of De Pere united with American Express. Ellen Tufts of the Green Bay News-Chronicle reported on November 10, 1982 that Myron Du Bain and Willie Davis, a Fireman’s Fund Board member and former Green Bay Packer, joined Wally Hilliard in Green Bay for the celebration of the announcement.



“It looks to us like the trail of Mohammad Atta to Venice, Florida where he connected with Wally Hilliard’s flying school meant that he was flying like a homing pigeon right up the CIA-linked drug lines protected, for example, by Asa Hutchinson at Mena, Arkansas. Hutchinson, as that state’s leading law enforcement officer, was promoted after the death of Barry Seal to the head of the Drug Enforcement Agency or DEA. Seal, for whom Eugene Hasenfus worked, downed the Fairchild C-123 cargo plane, N4410F, formerly USAF 54-679 which he piloted for the CIA. The flight over Nicaragua blew the lid off of Iran-Contra. Seal promised to carry news of the entire Iran-Contra network to a Baton Rouge, Louisiana courtroom where Seal was to have testified in the Federal case. Seal was machine-gunned on the street. Not only was Seal problematic, but Hilliard’s plane in Orlando was problematic as was Mark Lombardi, a Houston artist and curator of the Houston Museum of Contemporary Art who had drawn graphic schematics of the entire Iran-Contra network. Lombardi supposedly committed suicide in New York in the spring of 2000,” said Flapping Jowls.

“Anybody near the Iran-Contra network that included the indictment of Oliver North, John Poindexter, Casper Weinberger and Elliot Abrams, were near the CIA’s covert drug supply that would ultimately be uncovered by San Jose Mercury New’s Pulitzer prize winning reporter, Gary Webb. Webb died of two gunshot wounds to the head on December 10, 2004. The California medical examiner in charge declared it a suicide. He said it happens all the time…two shot to the head suicides,” said Flapping Jowls.

hilliard.azima.spatiallight.png Spatialight Corp. records showing Wallace J. Hilliards proximity

to Farhad Azima the primary U.S. government conduit for

the Iran-Contra drugs for weapons exchange and hostages scandal

that would have sent U.S.Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger to prison

save for a Presidential pardon from George Bush.

Hilliard not just close to Myron Du Bain, but also to Farhad Azima, the Iraqi businessman who handled the weapons delivery to Iran and whose small airline, Buffalo Airways, was domiciled in McClennan County, Texas, home of both the Crawford White House and the Branch Davidian compound where gun runner, David Koresh, died with his followers in a firey FBI and ATF assault. The FBI agent in charge of the assault was also the leading FBI buffer on the Iran-Contra scandal. His friend, Oliver North, was indicted with the others. Leaving Washington D.C. after the scandal, Fawn Hall, North's secretary, would pair up with Randy Sugarman, the agent for the rock group The Doors whose lead singer, Jim Morrison, was the son of the USN Admiral in charge of the Gulf of Tonkin Affair. Sugarman would introduce Hall to opium addiction. The drug connections, opium and cocaine, were pervasive throughout these networks," said Flapping Jowls. Fahrad Azima and Wallace J. "Wally" Hilliard came together in a company called Spatialight Inc. whose CEO would face an SEC conviction for fraud in 2006-7.

“I’d want to know if anybody else died in or around the date of Webb’s death that was close to this case. Maybe even four years earlier when tensions were even greater around the 2000 Presidential election in Florida when a fortunate son feared any unfortunate new revelations. Given Hilliard’s problems in 2001 with Mohammed Atta and Mark Lombardi’s death just before the 2000 election and it raises the spectre that Atta and his friends, mostly from Saudi Arabia, where the Bin Ladens were the engineers and builders for Prince Bandar Bush’s family, were taking advantage of their connection to American politicians to get to the American people by getting to their symbols of empire. By the way," said FJ, "the Bin Ladens owned the Houston Gulf Manor Airport, purchased with the help of Khalid Bin Mahfouz and Jim Bath, GWB's Air National Guard roommate."

"The Houston Gulf Manor Airport was razed after 911. Then you have to ask yourself who was on the 911 Commission? Richard Bin Vinesti was the attorney for Barry Seal and he was on the 911 Commission,” said Flapping Jowls who added...."When an S&L scandal figure, Robert Corson, son-in-law of Houston, Texas' Walter Mischer made his way to a Houston court to face the judge for his part in the S&L scandal it was reported by a Houston Post reporter that Corson also had significant knowledge of Barry Seal's drug operation and that he would use it as a bargaining chip as Seal had hoped to do in his trial. Corson also committed suicide before he arrived at the George Herbert Walker Bush appointed U.S. District Court. Anyone near the Bush, Hilliard or Du Bain organizations appear to have been in intense danger," said FJ.

“What we were forbidden to explore at Fox News was why if President Bush’s brother, Marvin P. Bush, was on the board of the security company in charge of the World Trade Center, Securacom, wasn't GWB receiving phone calls from Marvin while the President was reading to children about goats? Goats? With Myron Du Bain's experiences with the OSS and CIA and as head of the Stanford Research Institute he was literally the man who paid the men who stare at goats. My brother wouldn't hesitate to interrupt my photo op if I were President and someone just crashed 747's into his building,” said Flapping Jowls.

When asked where he got the name “Flapping Jowls” he said that “Deep Throat” was from a porn film and “Flapping Jowls” could be used for "every politician I have ever seen. Their jowls flap prevarications....mine the truth. FDR was credited with saving free market capitalism from the German American Nazi coalition of the 1930’s with Leo Crowley's seizure of Union Bank's assets, but don’t forget that Roosevelt’s family like so many of America’s power elites made their money from the opium trade, too….the China Trade….which they had learned from Great Britain’s East India Company," said FJ. "And don't forget Du Bain's connections to the Hawaiian German import/exporter Heinrich Hackfield who during WWI found his import/export business in Hawaii taken by the American Alien Custodian for Woodrow Wilson as would happen to Union Bank by Leo Crowley, FDR's Alien Custodian during World War II. Remember that the Roosevelts and Vanderbilts had teamed up to stall William Walker's attempt to put a Central American canal through Honduras and with the Panama Canal eclipsed Hackfield's domination of Hawaii whose assets went to AMFAC. Du Bain was running AMFAC after Henry Alexander Walker. AMFAC, American Factoring, owning thousands of acres of prime Hawaiian real estate on which it produced mostly sugar and coffee while being the China Trader's mid-Pacific depot, would find its best resort properties assimilated by a group of Texas brothers from Yale and Stanford, the Bass brothers, future partners with Richard Rainwater, the partner with George W. Bush in the Texan baseball franchise. The deal was brokered by Merrill Lynch, formerly Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner and Smith, with its family connections to President Franklin Pierce who backed the mercenary exploits of filibusterer William Walker in his attempt to privatize parts of the coasts of California and Northern Mexico. Franklin Pierce was an ancestor of Marvin Pierce, Barbara Pierce Bush's father," said FJ recalling how Ken Lewis of America Bank was forced to take Henry Paulson's bailout money to be used partially to buy Merrill Lynch which would have been illegal under Glass-Steagall which was repealed in 1999 just before GWB took office. Glass-Steagall, passed to prevent another Great Depression in 1933, had forbade banks from owing investment houses and insurance companies.

"From the American Northeast, across the U.S. mainland by rail to California then to Hawaii and the Philippines these dark entrepreneurial stars laid, then passed on by inheritance through interlocking corporate directorates, the rail heads, sea lane and safe harbors of the China Trade sparking along the way a Civil War, world wars and eventually a massive Cultural Revolution. After the Cultural Revolution aimed essentially at expelling the China Traders, after Mao's death the second U.S. Envoy leading to diplomatic relations with China was George Herbert Walker Bush," said FJ.

"Under the guise of providing a new and better leadership and establishing a more just society with our strict drug policies and laws, America's leaders disregarded the terms of the Nan King Treaty that replaced Britain's opium pushers. That treaty, first negotiated by the U.S. dominant China Trader, Caleb Cushing, was disregarded and the principle for which a Civil War was supposedly fought, freedom from slavery, clearly did not include the new chains of chemical slavery, as evidenced by Iran-Contra twenty years after GHWB's diplomatic mission 140 years after Caleb Cushing's mission. Then would come new military excursions to control the world's historic poppy-growing regions. Iran-Contra was not some little misguided fluke, but a lens through which to understand the whole charade aimed at turning the earth, like William Walker's hope for a Golden Circle in the American Caribbean basin, into a new home of slaves and masters," said FJ pointing out GHWB great interest in China.

"When you consider that the Civil War was an attempt by these same families to secure this route across the flatter Great Southwest with terminal secured on the Pacific coast by William Walker, the Southwest route though easier to build, was in the end more difficult to control, so they punched it through to the future hometown of Myron Du Bain and George Shultz, San Francisco, while abandoning Reconstruction as soon as the San Francisco route north of the stalled southern route was completed. Of course you cannot separate the rail barons, Leland Stanford or E.H. Harriman and the Union Pacific from these families and at the Stanford Research Institute Myron Du Bain's two stints as President put him on the front row of the power elites' mind-control research center. The Civil War was essentially, therefore, like 911, with the Hilliard and Du Bain connections to Mohammad Atta, a drug deal gone bad for the South. Jefferson Davis' Confederate rail route from Savannah to San Diego, was usurped by the North. In 1860 and 1861 for 18 months the trail from St. Joseph Missouri to San Francisco provided the media blitz that pulled attention to the Northern route....the Pony Express. Who started the Pony Express? William Hepburn Russell. With his connections to the New England Russell family and William Huntington Russell, founder of the Russell Trust that created Skull & Bones and to Boston's Caleb Cushing who negotiated U.S. trade policy with China, it was a done deal for the South's dream of joining the power elites. The Southern slavers were amateurs compared to the Cushings and the Russells who not so ironically were Northerners who favored Union and slavery. Just as the arrival of the British East India Company was to China the start of its cultural enslavement, so GHWB took a profound interest immediately before becoming CIA Director in the same region. It had been long enough since the Chinese Cultural Revolution that people there were starving for the free market excesses that the Russell and Cushing galaxy could provide when and if they needed to. With the Frank Church Commissions investigation of the CIA, GHWB stepped in as CIA Director which by his own admission would have been for anyone else the kiss of death for any future political ambitions. Yep, the Civil War was a drug deal gone bad, too, but so was Iran-Contra and Hopsicker is absolutely correct," said FJ. "911 was in essence a drug deal gone really, really bad."

FJ did not think that 911 was an inside job unless one means that Atta and his Middle-Eastern couriers coming from a history of doing the top CIA's dirty work across the Middle East through Al Qaeda dating back to the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan, went radially religious and did to New York what knowledgeable and angry Confederates, those who had figured out the China Trade and Great Southwest rail route connections, tried to do after the Civil War. Without this history American suspicions about Atta's group went largely without scrutiny even after the 15 of the 19 Saudi terrorists were used like fake yellow cake uranium to justify war with Iraq instead of Saudi Arabia. "Still I'm bothered by Building 7 and reports of Thermite found at Ground Zero. That would be over the top even for angry religious radicals bent on suicide bombing, what's the point? Unless they were also working with the President's brother's company Marvin P. Bush's company, Securacom, which had unfettered access in securing the World Trade Center complex," said FJ in a concluding flap

Except that the document is of unknown provenance, why should a private loan agreement be part of the public record. Also the only Hilliard in it is DAN Hilliard from Green Bay, WI., over 1400 miles from Venice FL. Even IF he's related to Wally he was only one of over 20 people loaning money to the company. Farhad Azima was mentioned only once in the 157 page contract, the partners (or loaners) agreed to buy shares in his name, there is no evidence they even had contact with each other and there is no evidence it is the same person

FOX NEWS COMES CLEAN

LOL there was no link to the supposed Fox article nor are we told its date, title or author and I seriously doubt Fox would have identified a source as “Flapping Jowls”, note the pseudonym “Deep Throat” was 1st used in All The President's Men not in the WP articles. I also doubt any MSM source would publish an article that mentioned “reports of Thermite found at Ground Zero” and this not be reported by every truther between Mars, NJ and Saturnia, Italy. The only hits for Google searches of snippets of text from the supposed article are to the blog. Another entry on the same page mentioned the non-existent “Center for The Promotion of Peaceful Terrorism” it is obviously a spoof site.

In 1982 Wallace J. "Wally" Hilliard’s insurance company, Wisconsin Employers Insurance Group of De Pere united with American Express. Ellen Tufts of the Green Bay News-Chronicle reported on November 10, 1982 that Myron Du Bain and Willie Davis, a Fireman’s Fund Board member and former Green Bay Packer, joined Wally Hilliard in Green Bay for the celebration of the announcement.

LOL this comes from the spoof site and the man was only identified as W.J. Hilliard. But let's assume the article was legit and it's the same guy, what does this prove?

LOL so unable to document ties between Hilliard and: Brady Jr., Kashoggi or Azima you are now reduced to pointing to his sale of his small insurance company in 1982 to a larger insurance company run by a man supposedly tied to JFK's CIA director. OMG, that proves it 9/11 was an inside job!

All 190 employees on the 48th floor of WTC2 survived 9/11.

Yes they were all obviously “in on it” that obviously is what you were insinuating. But this like just about everything else you post here is based on your ignorance “Of 599 fatalities in the south tower [WTC 2], only four worked below the crash area. Nobody who worked on the 58th floor or lower is known to have died.”

Harvey McLean's partner in the Palmer National Bank was Stefan Halper.

Halper had served as George Bush's foreign policy director during the 1980 presidential primaries.

During the general election campaign, Halper was in charge of a highly secretive operations center,

consisting of Halper and several ex- CIA operatives who kept close tabs

on Jimmy Carter's foreign policy activities, particularly Carter's attempt to free U.S. hostages in Iran.

Halper was later linked both to the "Debategate" scandal, in which it is alleged

that Carter's briefing papers for his debates with Ronald Reagan were stolen, and with

"The October Surprise," in which it is alleged that representatives of the Reagan campaign

tried to thwartU.S. efforts to free the Iranian hostages until after the presidential election.

Halper also set up a legal defense fund for Oliver North.

During the Iran-Contra Affair, Palmer National was the bank of record for the National Endowment for the

Preservation of Liberty, a front group run by Oliver North and Carl "Spitz" Channell, which was used to

send money and weapons to the contras.

Indian Springs Bank: Another bank with clear connections to the CIA was the Indian Springs Bank of

Kansas City, Kansas (Bainerman, 1992: 279-280; Brewton, 1993: 197-200). The fourth largest

stockholder in Indian Springs was Iranian expatriate Farhad Azima, who was also the owner of an air charter

company called Global International Air. The Indian Springs bank had made several unsecured loans to

Global International Air, totaling $600,000 in violation of the bank's $349,00 borrower limit. In

1983 Global International filed for bankruptcy, and Indian Springs followed suit in 1984.

The president of Indiana Springs was killed in 1983 in a car fire that started

in the vehicle's back seat and was regarded by law enforcement officials as of suspicious origins.

Global International Air was part of Oliver North's logistical network which shipped arms for the U.S.

government on several occasions, including a shipment of 23 tons of TOW missiles to Iran by Race Aviation,

another company owned by Azima. Pete Brewton, in his investigation of the Indian Springs bank collapse was

told that FBI had not followed up on Indian Springs because the CIA informed them that Azima

was "off limits" (Houston Post, February 8, 1990). Similarly the assistant U.S. Attorney

handling the Indian Springs investigation was told to "back off from a key figure in the collapse

because he had ties to the CIA."

Azima did indeed have ties to the CIA. His relationship with the agency goes back to the late

1970s when he supplied air and logistical support to EATSCO (Egyptian American Transport and Services

Corporation), a company owned by former CIA agents Thomas Clines, Theodore Shackley, and Richard Secord.

EATSCO was prominently involved in the activities of former CIA agent Edwin Wilson, who shipped arms

illegally to Libya. Azima was also closely tied to the Republican party.

He had contributed $81,000 to the Reagan campaign.

Global International also had other unsavory connections.

In 1981, Global International made a payment to organized crime figure Anthony Russo,

a convicted felon with a record that included conspiracy, bribery, and prostitution charges.

Russo was the lawyer of Kansas City organized crime figures, an employee of Indian Springs,

and a member of the board of Global International. Russo later explained that the money

had been used to escort Liberian dictator Samuel Doe on a "goodwill trip" to the U.S.

Global International's planes based in Miami were maintained by Southern Air Transport,

another CIA proprietary company. According to Franck Van Geyso, an employee of Global International,

pilots for Global International ferried arms into South and Central America and returned

to Florida with drugs. Indian Springs also made a loan of $400,000 to Morris Shenker,

owner of the Dunes Hotel in Las Vegas, former attorney for Jimmy Hoffa,

and close associate of Nick Civella and other Kansas City organized crime figures.

At the time the loan to Shenker was made, he, Civella, and other Kansas City mobsters

were under indictment for skimming $280,000 from Las Vegas' Tropicana Casino.

Sander Hicks- Long Island Press

No Easy Answer: Heroin, Al Qaeda And The Florida Flight School

Articles / Current News about 9-11

Date: Feb 27, 2004 - 05:35 PM

The 9/11 Truth Movement - Part Two

By Sander Hicks - Long Island Press -- Published February 26, 2004

Last March, on the first day of the 9/11 Commission hearings, commissioner Richard Ben-Veniste opened his remarks with sharp criticism of the current White House and the delays in processing the commissioners' security clearances. Ben-Veniste, who first came to prominence as a Watergate special prosecutor from 1973 to 1975, was counsel for the Democratic minority on the Senate Whitewater committee. Today he is a major attorney with a top firm in D.C.

But what makes Ben-Veniste such an intriguing player on the 9/11 Commission (The National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States) is his experience with rogue drug-running CIA operatives. Ben-Veniste defended Barry Seal, the notorious smuggler who flew C-123 military cargo planes filled with cocaine into Mena, Arkansas on behalf of the contras.

Al Qaeda's lead 9/11 hijacker, Mohamed Atta, was allegedly partying with CIA-connected pilots while he got his flight training in fall/winter 2000 at Huffman Aviation in Venice, Fla., where two of the other 9/11 hijacker pilots trained. Atta wasn't acting much like a holy martyr: He wore jeans and sneakers, played video games, bought himself a red Pontiac and was said to be a hedonist. The Press posed the question to

Ben-Veniste: If Atta belonged to the fundamentalist Muslim group, why was he snorting cocaine and frequenting strip bars?

"You know," said Ben-Veniste, as he smiled a little. "That's a heck of a question."

Follow the Drugs

The source of this information about Atta and cocaine is Amanda Keller, Atta's American ex-girlfriend, according to Daniel Hopsicker, an investigative journalist who has spent two years researching Huffman and its ties to the CIA. It took Hopsicker a year, but he tracked Keller down. Like many other witnesses who knew Atta, Keller says she has been harassed by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. Keller has not been called as a witness by the 9/11 Commission.

Hopsicker's self-published book, Welcome to Terrorland, details his investigation of what he calls the "Venice flying circus." Through interviews with Keller, Hopsicker has drawn a private picture of Atta, a psychopath Keller says dismembered a litter of kittens in her apartment when she dumped him.

Hopsicker is still researching the three Huffman-trained 9/11 pilots, who he says had financial, drug-trafficking and military intelligence ties to the U.S. government. He is developing suspicions that Atta and the entire school were involved with Osama bin Laden in heroin trafficking. Hopsicker reports that on July 25, 2000, the DEA in Orlando discovered more than 30 pounds of heroin inside a Learjet owned by Wally Hilliard,

owner of Huffman Aviation. Earlier that month, on July 3, Atta and Marwan Al-Shehri had started flight lessons at Huffman. Hopsicker claims it's not a coincidence that Atta was allegedly importing heroin with Hilliard's help, selling Afghanistan's notorious opium and heroin to finance the Taliban. Hilliard would not be interviewed for this story.

"The apparatus that Osama bin Laden set into place along with the CIA back in the '80s, still exists," Hopsicker says. "The FBI is protecting an operation set in place back in the '80s...a money-laundering device to funnel money to the Afghan Mujahedeen and to flood this country with heroin."

Military Money Makers

Outlandish? Yes. Impossible? Certainly not, given the documented histories of narcotics trafficking by the U.S. military intelligence. If true, this puts the story on a par with the alleged Vietnam War-era heroin-exporting operation coming out of Laos and Cambodia, or the connection between the Nicaraguan Contras, the CIA and crack cocaine, as alleged in 1995 by Gary Webb in the San Jose Mercury News.

But wait, weren't the Taliban famous for accepting a gift of $43 million in U.S. funds--four months before 9/11--to help outlaw opium crops and suppress their heroin trade? Yes, but old habits die hard, and heroin was the Taliban's cash cow. William Bach of the Bureau of International Narcotics and Enforcement Affairs suggested in October 2001 that the Taliban made more than $40 million in 1999 taxing opium farmers. UN satellite photos showed that opium cultivation grew by 50 percent in 2000, according to Reaping the Whirlwind, a well-received book by Michael Griffin, identified in his book as a former information consultant for UNICEF in Afghanistan.

That the Taliban made money from drugs is no surprise. But according to Hopsicker, the Venice operation was "protected" by top officials in the same U.S. government that created the Taliban (when the Taliban were known as the Mujahedeen, fighting the Soviets). Hopsicker says that when low-level DEA agents burst into Hilliard's plane on July 25, an embarrassed DEA higher-up was sitting in the co-pilot seat.

The Larger World

Hopsicker says that federal agents stated in court that Hilliard's planes made at least 30 weekly trips to Venezuela before the bust in July, but that Hilliard claimed innocence, saying the planes were leased to others. Hopsicker adds that neither Hilliard nor his business partner, Diego Levine-Taxar (the Learjet's pilot), did any time for the heroin. Instead, two low-level traffickers were incarcerated, Hopsicker says.

A web of larger corporate connections links Wally Hilliard to a much bigger world than that of small-town Venice, Fla. It has been reported that Hilliard did business with Myron Du Bain, who worked alongside late ex-CIA director John McCone on the boards of several banks. Du Bain was chairman of the Fireman's Fund Insurance Company in 1981 when the company announced plans to acquire Employers Health, an insurance company cofounded by Hilliard, who was chairman. The deal collapsed and Employers Health was later acquired by another company.

Du Bain later became CEO of Amfac Parks and Resorts, (now Xanterra Parks and Resorts), which owned the Silverado Resort in the Napa, Ca., wine country. Researcher Lois Battuello contends that Silverado often hosted Iran/Contra heavyweights Ollie North, Rob Owen and George H.W. Bush for golf and cocktails.

Follow the Money

Battuello worked at United California Bank (UCB) when Du Bain was on the board, right after former CIA director McCone served as chairman. She tells the Press that UCB had been on the brink of collapse, "under the weight of highly irregular loans." UCB had been known as John McCone's "piggy bank" and with Du Bain on board, they "attempted to recover monies looted and missing" by Saudi arms dealers (such as Adnan Khashoggi) and former CIA personnel.

After the 9/11 planes slammed into American landmarks, Battuello began to see a possible connection between the terrorists, their flight school, owner Wally Hilliard and his associate Du Bain. She left her comfortable Napa Valley home and went hunting for the truth. In Florida, she says, she found cab driver and Navy veteran Bob Simpson, who had driven Mohamed Atta around on multiple occasions. Simpson told Battuello that Rudi Dekkers, president and CEO of Huffman, was hanging out in nightclubs with Atta and other Saudis as recently as August 2001. According to Keller, Atta's ex-girlfriend, Dekkers and Atta did cocaine and went to strip clubs together quite a bit.

Hopsicker went looking for more on Dekkers, a Dutch citizen. Did the Huffman CEO have any prior arrests in Sarasota County, Fla.? Sgt. Michael Treanor, of the Venice Police Department, frustratedly told him they wouldn't be able to answer that question. Two of his detectives had removed all of Dekker's files and loaded them onto a plane for the FBI. One of those detectives, now promoted to Sergeant, was Tom McNulty. McNulty tells the Press, "I seized the files with the FBI because of some contacts I have in this area." But McNulty won't confirm or deny Hopsicker's reporting that Florida Gov. Jeb Bush was involved in the seizure of Dekkers' files.

Will any of this information find a place in the 9/11 Commission's official report, due out in July? Don't get your hopes up.

Hilliard had business ties to Myron Du Bain,

As previously noted the extent of their “business ties” was the 1982 acquisition of a small insurance company run by the former by a large insurance company run by the latter.

an early member of the OSS and a CIA operative, twice President of the Stanford Research Institute (SRI) known for mind science experiments including the use of LSD for psychological warfare for the U.S. intelligence agencies,”

Not that they are really relevant given how limited his ties to Hilliard were but get back to us with documentation of these claims
