CIA Plot Against Correa Funded by Drug Money 1271

 in Uncategorized by

Hillary Clinton is repeating the methodology of the Iran/Contra affair, using “black” funds to finance the operation to ensure President Correa is not re-elected.

I had two excellent sources for the news that the US/UK strategy against Julian Assange was to ensure the defeat of President Correa in Presidential elections next spring, and then have him expelled from the Ecuadorean Embassy. One source was within the UK civil service and one in Washington. Both had direct, personal access to the information I described. Both told me in the knowledge I would publish it.

Of course Assange is not the only reason Clinton wants rid of Correa; but it adds spice and urgency.

We now have completely independent evidence from Chile that this CIA operation exists, from journalists who were investigating a smuggling operation involving 300 kg per month of cocaine, organised by the Chilean army and security services.

The links to US intelligence emerged after an anonymous source from the Agencia Nacional de Inteligencia (ANI) told Panoramas News that the smuggling of 300 kilos of cocaine was in fact a highly sensitive CIA/DEA operation that would help to raise money to topple the government of Ecuador. The operation is similar to the one carried out by the Agency in Central America during the Iran-Contra scandal in the 1980’s, the source said.

A few days ago I published information I had received that Patricio Mery Bell, the director of the news programme which broke the story, had been lured to a meeting with a young lady “informant” who had worked with CIA-backed anti-Cuban groups in Miami. She had then accused him of sexual assault (does any of that scenario sound familiar?) He was arrested and his materials had been confiscated. However I took the article down after jst a few minutes because I had received the information in emails from sources I did not know previously, and was unsure it could stand up. It does now appear that this is indeed true.

My Washigton informant had told me, as I published, that the funds for the anti-Correa operation were not from the CIA budget but from secret funds controlled by the Pentagon. This could not be done by CIA funds because, perhaps surprisingly, for the CIA to operate in this way is a crime in the United States.

Whether my informant knew or suspected that the “secret Pentagon funds” were drug money I do not know. They did not mention narcotics.

    “..the emphasis on Israel’s nuclear, biological and chemical weapons of mass destruction was mysteriously lost.”

    Radio Free Palestine explains how the Holy Land has been betrayed for nearly a century and how its people, Muslim and Christian, have been cruelly abused and dispossessed in order to fulfill the Zionists’ dream of occupying the entire territory permanently. The book is 172 pages with over 110 colour photos and a Foreword by 2006 Nobel Peace Prize nominee Jeff Halper, Co-ordinator of ICAHD (Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions).

    Thanks for publishing this. It’s almost impossible to get real news any more, so one has to avail oneself of bits and pieces from a multitude of online locations in order to know what is really going on.

    Great blog.

    Tension building in Palestine.

    Netanyahu threatens to topple Abbas if UN bid for Palestinian statehood is continues.

    Israelis kill head of Hamas military wing in air attack.

  • Mary

    There is in fact a massive air attack by Israel ongoing in Gaza. Sky have just shown a video shot from a tall building with at at least ten sites on fire following explosions. Jets, drones and helicopters involved. The attack will last for some hours Sky’s Tim Marshall is saying. Q How does he know?

    Meanwhile, an Israeli official said they may try to topple President Mahmoud Abbas if he carries out a plan to ask the United Nations this month to upgrade the status of the Palestinian Authority.

    The upgrade would give the Palestinians a place in the world body akin to that of the Vatican – short of full membership as a sovereign state but as close as they can get without the full recognition that Israel says can only come from a peace treaty.

    A draft document from the office of Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman, seen by Reuters, said Israel must confront this challenge by means that could include “toppling (Abbas) and dismantling the Palestinian Authority”.

    Lieberman said in a speech at the settlement of Ariel in the occupied West Bank that if the Palestinian upgrade request was accepted by the UN General Assembly – as is widely predicted – It’s about the Palestinians’ reprehensible proposal to seek representation at the UN with observer status. “Punishment” will be administered for daring to hope.

    “If the … proposal is adopted at the United Nations General Assembly, as far as we are concerned this would be a complete breaking of the rules and it will elicit an extreme response from us,” Lieberman said on Wednesday.

    Newspaper reports say Israel instructed its ambassadors to warn it may revoke all or part of the 1993 Oslo Accords between Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organisation, which set up the Palestinian Authority under an interim peace agreement.

    Five uses of word ‘military’ and three uses of word ‘militant’ in one report uses in the context of Hamas. Israel of course is neither military nor militant and is totally peaceloving.

    A few heads might have rolled at the BBC but the message from New Broadcasting House is still the same with the same bias.

  • Mary

    It is called Operation Pillar of Smoke or some such this time. Last time it was Cast Lead, named after the children’s Hannukah toy, a spinning top or dreidl, traditionally cast in lead.

    Exodus 13:21 And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, To lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night: (KJV)

    They are good with the biblical references.

    Lieberman is the worst, ‘modo But at least he’s out front. This guy could change the word ‘ignorance’ into well-marketed ‘evil’. Clark; is there a Wiktionary update possible for the etymology of ‘idiot’?

    “Friedman’s idea seems to be that ethnically-fractured Middle Eastern countries like Syria would be more stable today, if they’d only been occupied first and had their nation-states built on a foundation of political compromises brokered by a strong military power like the United States. Veteran Friedman readers know that this line of thinking usually leads to either an “iron fist” column, or a “midwife” column. Today, he went with both.”

    Other thread we discussed music. Barry Maguire, 50 years ago…………….

    The eastern world, it is exploding
    Violence flarin’, bullets loadin’
    You’re old enough to kill, but not for votin’
    You don’t believe in war, but what’s that gun you’re totin’
    And even the Jordan River has bodies floatin’

    Some 2000 Stinger missiles were still missing in Libya, as of last week. There may not be time for reflection. Who is orchestrating events? Is this the Domino Theory revisited? Democracy will prevail !!! (see Friedman, above)

    No. Chaos and ethnic cleansing.

  • Donald

    Something, sooner or later, will turn Zionist-supporting European leaders into targets.

    I’m surprised it hasn’t happened already.

    I won’t weep for them.

    Not really chaos. Rather this plan.

    A Strategy for Israel in the Nineteen Eighties
    by Oded Yinon (with a foreword by, and translated by Israel Shahak)

    Foreword
    The following essay represents, in my opinion, the accurate and detailed plan of the present Zionist regime (of Sharon and Eitan) for the Middle East which is based on the division of the whole area into small states, and the dissolution of all the existing Arab states. I will comment on the military aspect of this plan in a concluding note. Here I want to draw the attention of the readers to several important points:

    1. The idea that all the Arab states should be broken down, by Israel, into small units, occurs again and again in Israeli strategic thinking. For example, Ze’ev Schiff, the military correspondent of Ha’aretz (and probably the most knowledgeable in Israel, on this topic) writes about the “best” that can happen for Israeli interests in Iraq: “The dissolution of Iraq into a Shi’ite state, a Sunni state and the separation of the Kurdish part” (Ha’aretz 6/2/1982). Actually, this aspect of the plan is very old.

    2. The strong connection with Neo-Conservative thought in the USA is very prominent, especially in the author’s notes. But, while lip service is paid to the idea of the “defense of the West” from Soviet power, the real aim of the author, and of the present Israeli establishment is clear: To make an Imperial Israel into a world power. In other words, the aim of Sharon is to deceive the Americans after he has deceived all the rest.

    3. It is obvious that much of the relevant data, both in the notes and in the text, is garbled or omitted, such as the financial help of the U.S. to Israel. Much of it is pure fantasy. But, the plan is not to be regarded as not influential, or as not capable of realization for a short time. The plan follows faithfully the geopolitical ideas current in Germany of 1890-1933, which were swallowed whole by Hitler and the Nazi movement, and determined their aims for East Europe. Those aims, especially the division of the existing states, were carried out in 1939-1941, and only an alliance on the global scale prevented their consolidation for a period of time.

    The notes by the author follow the text. To avoid confusion, I did not add any notes of my own, but have put the substance of them into this foreward and the conclusion at the end. I have, however, emphasized some portions of the text.

    The IDF has embarked on an operation against Hamas, an Iranian proxy responsible for terror attacks on Israel. #Iran #Gaza

    Meanwhile,

    Number of Israeli civilians killed by the excuses-for-rockets fired by Hamas in 2012: 0

    AFP quotes Hamas spokesman saying 6 dead & 25 injured so far in Israeli air strikes in Gaza

    Mary; The machinations of power have human limits. Strategy often devolves into tactics.

    Unless they subscribe to ‘Endtimes’ and seek to accelerate the Divine Plan, and have absolute faith in their doctrine………

    Whoops ! Did I say that? Seriously, they are not in control. They cannot see the triangulations.

    If they really wanted a confrontation, that would entail US support for their hegemony, wouldn’t they want a stinger or two to bring down an Israeli jet? Hamas is getting more sophisticated arms through the net(anti-tank weapon) I think they are going on a plan, but the plan keeps having to adapt to exigent circumstances. They don’t have God’s Eyes.

    Israel calls up reservists, gets ready for Gaza invasion

    The IDF announces a widespread campaign on “terror targets” and begins bombing the Gaza Strip, preparing for a ground operation. This comes after the head of Hamas’ military wing Ahmed Jabari was killed in an Israeli airstrike.

    The operation, called “Pillar of Defense”, has been launched by the Israel military. Many of the buildings in downtown Gaza City are on fire after being attacked by Israeli warplanes, RT’s Arabic correspondent Saed Swerky reports on Twitter.

    The IDF says all options are on the table in Gaza, including a ground operation.

    Israel has started emergency call up of reservists, while saying they are preparing for a ground invasion of Gaza, RT`s Tom Barton reports from Israel.

    The strikes caused extensive damage to the long-range missile capabilities and underground weapons storage facilities, the IDF said on Twitter.

    The Gaza Education Ministry has announced a suspension of study at Gaza schools and universities due to heavy fire by Israel.

    The death toll from the strikes has risen to nine with some 20 wounded, the Red Cross says.

    “Something, sooner or later, will turn Zionist-supporting European leaders into targets” (Donald, at 4.58 pm).

    It might happen, but the originators will not be Muslims. Israel has nuclear weapons and the Germans were obliging enough to sell them the submarines necessary for their delivery. The day will come when those Israeli submarines will be used to beat one or several western European states into submission (political submission, I mean).

    Cable rupture won’t affect work of Russia’s military satellites – reports

    A cable rupture in the Moscow Region has not disrupted the work of Russian military satellites, military sources told RIA Novosti on Wednesday. Earlier reports said the communication with the Russian segment of the International Space Station (ISS) was disrupted. The incident also endangered the Soyuz spaceship’s undocking from the ISS, Itar-Tass reported, citing a source at the Mission Control Center. The spaceship is to bring an ISS crew back to Earth on November 19. Work was underway to fix the problem at the place of the cable’s rupture.
