BUSH SR.
IN BUSINESS WITH BIN LADEN FAMILY
CONGLOMERATE
THROUGH CARLYLE GROUP aw9.htm and 203.htm
Osama - put a large part of his
money into George Jr's business ventures,
including Arbusto (Bush in Spanish) Energy.
Mr Bush was not long out of Harvard Business School when he started
the company in 1978.
Osama's brother Salem watched it grow into a hugely successful
business until his death
in a microlight plane crash in Texas in 1983.As he built his own
business empire,
Salem Bin Laden had an intriguing relationship with the president-to-be.
In 1978, he appointed James Bath, a close friend of Mr Bush who
served with him in the
Air National Guard, as his representative in Houston, Texas.
According to a 1976 trust agreement,
drawn shortly after George Bush senior
was appointed director of the Central Intelligence Agency, Saudi Sheik bin Laden
appointed
James R. Bath.
as his business representative in Houston. Bin Laden, along with
his brothers, owns Bin Laden Brothers Construction,
one of the largest construction companies in the Middle East.
According to White,
Bath told him that he had assisted the CIA in a liaison role with
Saudi Arabia since 1976.
Houston Chronicle June 4, 1992, said federal
officials were investigating the activities
of a Houston businessman accused of illegally representing Saudi
interests in the U.S.
The U.S. businessman was James R.
Bath ,
a past investor in companies controlled by the George W. Bush.
Among the Saudi interests were
those of Saudi Sheik Salem M. bin
Laden.
Back in 1992, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network known as
FinCEN and the FBI were reviewing accusations that entrepreneur
Bath guided money to Houston from Saudi investors who wanted
to influence U.S. policy under the Reagan
and Bush administrations .
...once before, the bin Laden family profited handsomely
because of Osama bin Laden's terrorist actions. The bin Laden
family was hired to rebuild a U.S. Air Force base in Saudi Arabia
after the
Khobar Towers were destroyed in 1996. Osama bin Laden was the
chief suspect in that bombing.

: Coincidences
and capitalist terrorists.
What the CIA bio conveniently fails to specify (in
its unclassified form, at least) is that the bin Laden's Maktab
al-Khidamar (MAK)(A Group before Taliban),
was nurtured by Pakistan's state security services, the Inter-Services
Intelligence agency, or ISI,
the CIA's primary conduit for conducting the covert war against
Moscow's occupation.

George Bush, Sr. was Vice President and, by virtue
of executive Order 12333,
in charge of all U.S. intelligence and narcotics operations
from 1981 through 1989. As President from
1989 through 1993, he continued and expanded his control in
these areas. Thus, it was Bush (the elder) who directly nourished
and nurtured bin Laden's evolution.

In 1956, as reported by the Times Of London,
during one of Israel's perpetual wars with its neighbors, the
Mossad tried to trick the United States
into siding with Israel against the Arabs by blowing up a US facility
in Cairo and blaming the Arabs for it. The plot was wrecked when
the operatives were caught confessed, creating a huge scandal.
And according to Victor Ostrovski, a defector from the Mossad,
the USA was tricked into bombing Libya when the Mossad planted
a radio transmitter in Tripoli
which sent out fake orders to terrorists which
the USA could intercept.

Terrorist Money -- Too Hot For U.S. to Handle?
When
Mayor Giuliani was an assistant prosecutor in charge of investigating
the (BCCI)
Bank
of Credit and Commerce International in the early 1990s, he received
documents from Backes, according to "Revelation$." "Giuliani
and agents of the FBI were delighted with the official documents
[which Backes sent him]," the authors wrote. BCCI was a Pakistani-run
bank registered via shell companies in the Cayman Islands that
used secret accounts to effect an $8 billion global money-laundering
fraud. Before it was shut down in 1991,
BCCI
was used by U.S. and Saudi intelligence to fund the mujahedeen, then fighting
the Soviet-supported government of Afghanistan.175.htm

n 1990, Neil Bush paid a $50,000
fine and was banned from banking activities for his role in taking down Silverado,
which actually cost taxpayers $1.3 billion. A Resolution Trust
Corporation suit against Bush and other officers of Silverado
was settled in 1991 for $26.5 million . . . A Republican fundraiser
set up a fund to help defer costs Neil incurred in his S&L
dealings . . . As a director of a failing thrift in Denver, Bush
voted to approve $100 million in what were ultimately bad loans
to two of his business partners. And in voting for the loans,
he failed to inform fellow board
members at Silverado Savings & Loan that the loan applicants
were his business partners. Federal banking regulators later followed
the trail of defaulted loans to Neil Bush oil ventures, in particular

Al-Sabah fled into exile in l990 when his country was occupied
by Iraq, The Gulf war drove out the Iraqi forces and "liberated"
Kuwait thus restoring the autocratic al-Sabah dynasty to its golden
throne.
In the early spring of l992, Bush and his group were received
in Kuwait George Sr., George W., Neil and Marvin Bush as well
as James Baker, former secretary of state, and John Sununu, his
former chief of staff. with full honors and heaped with "presents" "wealthy Kuwaitis flocked to the ceremonial
dinners and receptions given for the Bush group, and patiently
stood in line for hours to shower the former president with expensive
gifts Cartier watches, diamond jewelry, strings of gold coins
aggregately worth millions of dollars," says a former New York Times reporter who covered the visit.
With the former president providing the supporting
pitch, al-Sabah was pressured by Baker
to grant his client, the giant Enron Corporation, a $4 billion
contract to refurbish Kuwait's power grid. The project began with
the al-Shuaiba facility, a 1,000-megawatt power plant just south
of Kuwait City that had been destroyed by
U.S. bombing.
Unocal, a California-based global energy company, heads
up one of two consortiums engaged in fierce competition to build
gas and oil pipelines from landlocked Turkmenistan to Pakistan
through war-torn Afghanistan. Unocal's main partner in the consortium
is Delta Oil Co., a Saudi-owned company, in whose behalf former
White House legislative assistant Paul Behrends
and Delta's American vice-president Charles Santos,
a recent U.N. peace negotiator in Afghanistan, are busy lobbying
in Washington.
The only other possible( besides
Iranian ) pipeline-route is across Afghanistan
which has of course its own unique challenges. The country
has been involved in bitter warfare
for almost two decades, and is still divided by civil war.
From the outset, we have made it clear that construction of the
pipeline we have proposed across Afghanistan could
not begin until a recognized government is in place that has the confidence of
governments, lenders, and our company.

"Of the Mossad, the

When four US fighter jets from a nearby aircraft carrier came
to protect the Liberty,
US Defense Secretary Robert McNamara ordered the jets NOT
to come to the Liberty's aid,
and allowed the Israeli attack to continue. Thirty-four Americans
were killed and 171 wounded.
During the Six Day War, the Liberty, an American intelligence
gathering ship, was sailing in international waters. Israeli aircraft
and torpedo boats attacked it for 75 minutes.
In 1967 on the fourthday of the
Six Day War, the armed forces of Israel attacked the American
intelligence ship USS Liberty for 90 minutes in international
waters in
broad daylight following several hours of close, low-level
reconnaissance. Thirty-four men died, 171 were hurt, and the ship
was
so badly damaged that it had to be scrapped.
The government of Israel has lied about the circumstances ever
since,
telling a story markedly different from that told by American
survivors.
Congress has refused to question Israel's demonstrably false account,
even though the State Department's own analysis finds the Israeli
story
to be untrue.

SOME ODD FACTS! Supposedly, only one of the four cockpit
voice recorders from the 9/11 planes has been found in working
condition. The recordings made of FAA flight controllers talking
to aircraft are also missing. With the exception of one still
frame taken at an airport in Seattle of an Arab-looking man at
a gate, no video from any of the departure gates of any of the
four hijacked flights has been released to show Arabs getting
on board those flights. The flight attendant who telephoned the
ground gave the seat numbers of the men who hijacked her plane
and those seats were assigned to names which do not appear on
the FBI's list of Arab suspects; a list the FBI persists in waving
about even though it has admitted that the hijackers were using
skillfully forged IDs with stolen identities. And even more telling,
the names of the alleged hijackers released by the FBI do not
even appear on the published passenger lists of the four hijacked
flights. Indeed the passenger lists are notable for the scarcity
of any Arabic sounding names. http://www.haaretzdaily.com/hasen/

Texas homeland security chief David
Dewhurst wanted Texans to feel confident in these trying times
and as a Republican candidate for lieutenant governor wanted Texans
to know he was taking his new anti-terrorism job seriously. So
he purchased a full-color, four-page advertisement in Texas Monthly
magazine a few days ago.The ad layout has received far more comment
than any similar effort in recen history but perhaps for all the
wrong reasons.In the ad, a military officer is depicted standing
in front of an unfurled American flag, with the caption, "As
chairman of the Governor's Task Force on Homeland Security, David
Dewhurst encourages you to support President Bush and the brave
men and woman of our Armed Forces as they fight to eliminate terrorism
and work to restore confidence in our economy." Within hours
of the magazine's hitting the streets last week, the Dewhurst
campaign became inundated with calls some angry, some joking informing
the state land commissioner that the officer in the photograph
was not an American general, but was clearly a German Luftwaffe
officer complete with military decorations, insignias and a name
tag bearing the German flag. 206.htm

Bush wants the federal government to cover 80 percent
of all attack- related industry payouts from the very first
dollar
November 2001 : The House of Representatives
passed a proposed package of "economic
stimulus" measures, strongly supported by Bush, that
adds up to a stunning array of gifts to big corporations and the
wealthy. According to the Congressional Research Service, of the
$25.4 billion the repeal and resulting refunds would cost this
year, $3.3 billion would go to seven companies,
including IBM ($1.4 billion), General Motors ($832 million), and
General Electric ($671 million). Another provision would
reduce the top rate on long-term capital gains taxes from 20 percent
to 18 percent. 210.htm
