THE OCTOPUS - The
US GOV’s /CIA’s Criminal Cabal of Guns &
Drugs
It is
one of those stories that even the wildest novelists can’t properly
imagine. A group of well placed government bureaucrats including a PRESIDENT or
two or three…four at the outset…and a lot of crooked, bought politicians, plus
numerous CIA spooks and military covert ops types shake hands with the Mafia and agree to do business on the QT.
(Biz is THE DRUG business
but also arm sales.) This involves shaking-down very wealthy figures, dealing
guns on the black market, money laundering and sixty long years of trafficking
drugs on a world-wide scale, causing addiction and jailings on a
massive scale to ghetto blacks. Sprinkle on top numerous unprovoked wars
and BUSH sanctioned TORTURE…And voila,
you have our current world. All of it courtesy of a group Danny Casolero called
the OCTUPUS,
he was the one researcher who knew about them, a journalist, and had a book
going until they murdered him and burnt the research.
Along
the way this monster out of ALIEN, the OCTUPUS,
will create/fill then bleed the assets of numerous banks, bankrupting many of them in the
process and being legally un-prosecuteable for the most, though when cornered
they will use Justice lawyer Rudy Giuliani and head of FBI later, but then
Justice lawyer Bob Mueller who see to it that gov will NOT carefully
investigate or harshly prosecute the MUSLIM FUNDED
BCCI bank which THE MAN WHO CREATED THE CIA CONSCRIPTED, building an
offshoot to fund US MILITARY/ SECRET ops, in AFGHANISTAN to get RUSKIS out of
their HEROIN PATCH, their HASHISH GARDEN. The CIA built this bank’s MAIN, RIGHT
ARM with Muslim
money, then FUNDED OSAMA with it. Whenhe worked for us. BCCI got busted
for malfeasances and JUSTICE DEPT hounds Giuliani and Mueller (Justice Dept)
seemed to leave the bank alone, not prosecuting some very big embezzlement, men
who were cannibalizing their own bank, as dirty trix was all they knew. The
Octupus will see to it that the two lawyers GIULIANI/ MUELLER later get very
high posts in Gov, like MAYOR OF NYC, maybe PRESIDENT, G.O.P favorite and HEAD
OF FBI. I.e. favors galore. GIULIANI AND MUELLER. Sound like any lawfirm you’d
want to hire? Bush team hired them.
The
Octopus will also involve itself in Masonic secret societies and pull unseen
strings deep inside the Vatican.
And, the reporter/journalist who wrote books on those ties was quickly
murdered. This group has organised more than a few political assassinations, they
invoke many random murders and set alight the fuse on dozens of major bombing
events - just to add zest and confusion. Busy boys.
Everything
was done in the name of “anti-communism,” and was conducted under the umbrella
of “national security” – a designation that was sure to stifle any irksome
police investigation that could otherwise lead to arrest and imprisonment. It
also ensured their now decades old “business enterprise” would continue to
prosper without any kind of oversight.
Welcome
then, to the national security “untouchables” - a group of shadowy
puppet-masters who practice organised crime on a global scale in the name of
freedom and democracy – and who often possess marked German ties and back
when…even Nazi sympathies.
Danny
Casolaro, a freelance American journalist dubbed this group The Octopus.
Casolaro was investigating them for their involvement in the October Surprise
story, the theft of Inslaw Corporation’s smart software suite known as “PROMIS” and their connections to the
Iran-Contra affair involving Lt. Col. Oliver North, as well as the collapse of BCCI,
the global bank dubbed the Bank for Crooks & Criminals International.
According
to Carol Marshall, an American writer, Casolaro told friends that he “had
traced the Inslaw and related stories back to a dirty CIA “Old Boy’ network
that had begun working together in the 1950’s around Albanian covert
operations.” Marshall adds that “these men had gotten into the illegal gun and
drugs trade back then and had continued in that business ever since.” She adds
that Casolaro was also investigating the Wackenhut Corporation – a
leading international security firm based in Indio, California. Wackenhut
Corp., began life, according to its own promotional literature, back in 1954
when a handful of FBI Special Agents
decided to set-up a specialist company providing investigative services to
business and industry. One of them ended up killing RFK
so keep your eye on these guys.
But
Marshall and Casolaro may well have been a few years out in their reckoning on the
founding of the Octopus. There is persuasive evidence that the roots of
this group date back to the war (WWII) or immediate post-war years.
Colonel Paul Helliwell started it, or HELLWELL, some prefer the apt spelling…
doing so from inside the OSS back in FLYING TIGERS era, with ALLEN DULLES’
protection. The DULLES group reached out to LUCKY LUCIANO --pulling him out of
prison for favors in SICILY. That was the first meeting of the IVY LEAGUE lily clean hand wannabe
MURDERERS Boys Club with the dirty hands MOB doing the hits. The fact that
BOBBY K prosecuted the MOB so mercilessly to put racketeering out of business,
that fact alone would have occasioned mob wrath & gotten him murdered! But
you will see, there’s a bigger reason Bobby had to be put out of business,
instead.
There
was certainly an accommodation reached between the Mafia and the US military by
the time of the US led invasion of Sicily. In exchange for Mafia help for the
Sicily landing, Mafia kingpin, Lucky Luciano, was released from prison in the
US for exile in Italy.
But
the relationship between the US military and intelligence community and senior
members of organised crime was far more deep-seated. Lt. Colonel Lucien Conein, a high-ranking CIA
officer stationed in Saigon before and during the Vietnam war, also belonged to
the Corsican underworld, the Union Corse. This crime clan was responsible for
the so called “French Connection” heroin shipments from Southeast Asia to
Marseilles and then on to the United States during the Vietnam War era. Conein was so well connected to leaders of
the Corsican underworld that when he left Vietnam, he was presented with a gold
medallion embossed with the Napoleonic eagle and the Corsican crest. The
medallion is traditionally worn by Corsican crime bosses to signify their
seniority. Conein is believed by some
to have been the inspiration for the principal character in William Herrernan’s
best selling novel, The Corsican. Meanwhile, earlier in his career, Conein had
been an OSS liaison officer with the French resistance during WW11.
Meanwhile,
it is a sad fact that the narcotics industry has been lurking behind almost
every major – and most minor – wars over the past five decades. The war in
Southeast Asia that encompassed Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos and Thailand witnessed
a vast explosion in Opium and Heroin trafficking – with the connivance of the
CIA. Much of this resulted from the decision to covertly arm, at a cost, local
warlords to fight in the battle against communism. In order to be able to buy
these weapons, local military commanders took control of and increased Opium production
in their region. This was then exchanged for weapons and the Opium found its
way to the US and Europe.
The
guns for dope model that developed during the Vietnam war proved effective
elsewhere, too. Similar structures were later developed in Afghanistan, El
Salvador and even up to and including Kosovo – where the NATO backed KLA
trafficked heroin. Afghanistan for heroin/ hash, Vietnam for heroin. (Play
movie AIR AMERICA for laffs.)
But
the Octopus does not limit itself to just guns and drugs – even though these
two do generate spectacular profits. According to Carol Marshall, there is
evidence of an old and deep involvement in chemical and biological (CB) weapons
that may date back to WW11 and the secret Japanese Unit 731 that developed CB
weapons in Manchuria. This connection also revealed, Marshall discovered, the
Octopus connection to the Yakuza – Japan’s notorious underworld – in the form
of Robert Booth Nichols.
Nichols
repeatedly appears in Marshall’s manuscript because of his apparent relationship
to organised crime syndicates and Mafia front organisations. Nichols, however,
is also a member of the CIA, a fact he admitted on the witness stand during a
1993 trial for false arrest.
Threatening to subpoena a list of highly placed government officers in
his defence, the trial Judge, Thomas C. Murphy, ruled a mistrial. Meanwhile, Nichols continued to maintain a
very close association with Harold Okimoto, Nichols Godfather and member of the
Board of Directors of First Intercontinental Development Corporation (FIDCO) –
a firm in which Nichols was a principle. Okimoto, meanwhile is alleged to have
been a high ranking Japanese intelligence officer during WW11 – a post
invariably given to senior members of the Yakuza.
One
of the principal persons providing inside information to Carol Marshall was
Michael Riconsciuto – a CIA scientific whiz kid imbued with marked intellectual
abilities who ostensibly worked for the Wackenhut Corporation. Riconsciuto, who
had been close to Robert Booth Nichols for twenty years, visited a top secret
facility with him. This was located at Alice Springs in Australia and housed,
according to Riconosciuto a “city of sorts, containing sophisticated
communications equipment, laboratory equipment and other items that he would
not define.” This facility was “privately owned” Riconosciuto told Marshall,
adding that what he had seen there “made him realise it was time to terminate
his relationship with Robert Booth Nichols.”
Riconosciuto
refused to say what it was that caused his dismay during his Australian trip,
but author Carol Marshall believed it had something to do with bio weapons
that he’d worked on and which might have had a bearing on Gulf War Syndrome.
This illness is said to have subterranean connections to HIV AIDS and is
rumoured to have resulted from the illegal field-testing on allied troops of an
experimental AIDS vaccine during the Gulf war. Were a commercial company to
have found and successfully tested an AIDS vaccine, the potential profits they
could earn would be enormous.
Likewise,
the development of a genetically modified killer disease possesses potential
for profits also. During one of her last interviews with Riconosciuto, Carol
Marshall pressed the CIA scientist to explain his involvement in developing a
genetically engineered biological weapon during his time at Wackenhut. Riconoscituo
explained that he had worked on a “military concept where you can engineer
these biological agents….you see, a specific penetration group can be
immunised, and everybody else dies.”
Riconosciuto,
meanwhile, was the first to claim years ago that a race specific biological
weapon had been developed. At the time his claims received short shrift. We now
know, however, that the Israeli’s have indeed been developing such a device as
have the South Africans. Nor can the allegations of an HIV AIDS bio-weapon be
written off as fantasy.
Dr.
Wouter Bassoon - head of South Africa’s military covert weapons programme – who
has been dubbed the “Doctor of Death” by the South African media, is said to
have been involved in the use of the AIDS virus against enemies by using
“infected blood” in “an operation.” Bassoon is also charged with trafficking in
Ecstacy and Mandrax tablets, money laundering, the illegal administration of
truth serum, conspiracy to murder and murder. Dr. Bassoon had admitted that his
activities were based on a US chemical & biological weapons programme. “I
must confirm that the structure of the project was based on the U.S. system.
That’s where we learned the most,” he said.
Meanwhile,
the serpentine connections between South African security forces and leading
figures from the realm of organised crime during the Apartheid era, can only
serve to reinforce the incredible reach and depth of the Octopus.
A
typical scam revolves around the most popular arms for drugs cycle. Weapons purchased years before by the
Pentagon are acquired by the Octopus at “book value” – meaning the cost of
purchase for, say, 1980 when an assault rifle might then have had a price tag
of $300 each. In 1990, this cost could easily have risen to $600 each. By
acquiring the 1980 stock at $300 per rifle, the Octopus could sell it to their
“client” for, say, for $700 each – including shipping - thereby making a
handsome profit of $400 each. In order to replenish its stock of rifles, the
Pentagon arranges to purchase the current model weapon at the prevailing price
– making the tax-payer the loser.
The
second leg of the arrangement sees the Octopus contract to purchase the
“clients” supply of drugs. The purchase price is set well below street value,
but sufficient for the client to be able to afford to purchase the arms
needed.(So you can imagine Afghani Hash, Afghanis get guns. Colombian coke,
suddenly Abundant guns in Colombia, drug lords are protected.) The drugs are
then “cut” and distributed and, naturally, generate immense additional profits
at the street level. In this manner, each leg of the transaction makes a
bountiful profit. The last part of the jigsaw is to launder the illegal profits
through the banking system and then invest part of the proceeds into bona fide
businesses.
CIA
whiz-kid Michael Riconosciuto told author Carol Marshall that the US government
“sanctioned” meth labs in Fresno, Madera and Mariposa County in California.
Marshall had been earlier involved in an investigation in Mariposa County that
involved Police Sergeant Roderick Sinclair of the Mariposa Sheriff’s
Department. Sinclair had, according to a number of witnesses, been a long-term
user of drugs, and while on duty, veered the car he was driving across the road
and hit another car. Inside were three
US Secret Service men who were all killed outright. What grabbed Carol Marshall’s attention, however, was the way the
Judge in the subsequent trial appeared to cover-up Sinclair’s drug habit. The
author later realised that a “tentacle of the Octopus had slithered into
Mariposa County” when she discovered that Rod Sinclair’s father, Colonel
Sinclair, had been a military attaché to General Douglas MacArthur during WWII
– and later supervised training of Japanese in intelligence methods. MacArthur
and members of his team have long been associated with the Octopus – perhaps
because of the General’s role as Japan’s “Shogun” after WWII and the inevitable
contacts created with the Japanese crime clans, the Yakuza. It has recently
been revealed that MacArthur appears to have personally benefited from war loot
plundered by the Japanese and later secretly recovered by the OSS and the
CIA. This was in the form of gold
bullion accounts set-up in MacArthur’s name by the OSS/CIA officer Santa
Romana.
During
hearings in 1987, the Senate Sub Committee on Terrorism, Narcotics &
International Operations revealed a series of “secret memo’s” written by
General Paul F. Gorman who as head of “Southern Command” commanded the US military
presence in South America during the 1980’s. Gorman had written: “There is not
a single group in unconventional warfare that does not use narcotics to fund
itself.” He was referring to the US backed Contra’s supported by Colonel Oliver
North and the national Security Council of the US. This was the tip of the
iceberg, however. Every conflict from Vietnam on through Lebanon, Afghanistan,
Croatia and Kosovo has relied on the guns for drugs equation operated by the
Octopus. One very senior Pentagon source described how this came about to
author Monica Jensen-Stevenson: “What started out in Vietnam as a neat way to
find money to fund covert operations had developed into a huge industry. The
men and women who are involved, maybe they can’t get off the merry-go-round.
Maybe it keeps spinning faster and faster, they make more and more money, and
even if they wanted to duck out, they can’t.” Theodore Shackley, one of the key
CIA figures involved in covert operation since Vietnam described in his book
The Third Way that low intensity conflicts are not really fought to be won but
to bleed both sides so as to maximise black market commerce and to secretly
field test new weapons and techniques on a “training battlefield.”
In her book The Last Circle, author Carol Marshall outlines an
international company, First Intercontinental Development Corporation (FIDCO)
that she said led her “straight to the head of the octopus.” She then lists the
Board of Directors of FIDCO who included Robert Maheu Snr, right hand
man of Mob and gofer to CIA connected Howard Hughes and Robert Booth Nichols,
self-confessed CIA agent with powerful Mafia affiliations. Among others on the
board were Michael McManus, former assistant to President Reagan and Clint
Murchison Jnr., owner of the Dallas Cowboys NFL football team. The latter is
the son of Clint Murchison Snr., just implicated in the JFK hit by E.Howard Hunt,
who was there! Murchison was one of the motivating factors behind General
Douglas MacArthur’s failed Presidential attempt in 1952.Donald Freed put him in
the movie EXECUTIVE ACTION, the whole JFK HIT on film with BURT LANCASTER. Muchison senior was also closely associated
at this time with Richard Nixon, who later became US President and had
financial dealings with him that involved Jimmy Hoffa, a Mafia figure connected
to the Teamsters Union. Others who were close friends of Murchison senior
included FBI chief, J. Edgar Hoover. That Clint Muchison senior had dealings
with the Mafia is undisputed. For example, 20% of the Murchison Oil Lease
Company was owned by Gerardo Catena, a leading lieutenant of the Genovese crime
family. Of interest, too, are Murchison’s Texas connections. Investigative journalist, Pete Brewton, in
his book The Mafia, CIA & George Bush, ties former President
George Bush to leading Mafia figures in Texas.

says “I have been told this flight should not
have taken place with all those high intel types in one chopper very
suspicious .Nestled between the Firth of Lorn and Mull Sound on the south-west
coast of Scotland, the Mull of Kintyre is habitat to an abundance of
wildlife - including rock star Paul McCartney, who has a house there. It is also home to a very secretive military
installation that houses, amongst others, highly trained US Special Forces Navy
commandos known as SEALS.
At about 5.30 p.m. on 2 June 1994, a British army Chinook
helicopter, bearing the designation Zulu Delta 576, took off from RAF
Aldergrove, Northern Ireland, under the tightest possible security
blanket. The Chinook, painted a matt
“black on black,” signified it was one of the aircraft used by elite special
forces on a variety of secretive missions.
Bristling machine guns that poked out of firing ports, the aircraft also
sported an elaborate web of aerials protruding along the length of one side.
The 25 passengers aboard were some of the most senior members
of Britain’s intelligence community,
including MI5, Army Intelligence, the
SAS and senior figures in the RUC’s Special Branch. They were heading towards Inverness,
Scotland, to attend an annual “Security Conference” in the company of the Home
Secretary. As soon as the Chinook was
airborne, the passenger list was “shredded” for security reasons. ---YES? I believe we were cut off. Mr.
