Cheney/Libby compromises of CIA nuclear counter-proliferation
cont'd: http://www.waynemadsenreport.com/

February 22, 2006 -- BREAKING NEWS. Cheney/Libby compromises of CIA nuclear counter-proliferation operations rolled up ultra-sensitive maritime interdiction operation in Southeast Asian waters. According to two CIA sources, the revelations by Vice President Dick Cheney and his former Chief of Staff, I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, about classified CIA counter-proliferation operations, including the exposure of Valerie Plame Wilson and her Brewster Jennings & Associates clandestine work, eventually resulted in the compromise of the CIA's most sensitive nuclear components interdiction program. Cheney recently contended that he has the unilateral right to declassify classified information per an Executive Order signed by President Bush.

The CIA's maritime interdiction program was designed to stop suspect cargo vessels on the high seas, mostly in the Straits of Malacca and the South China Sea, and search them for nuclear material and missiles and their respective components. The unique and most sensitive aspect of the CIA program was the use of Southeast Asian sea pirates to gain access to the interdicted vessels. The CIA's interdiction program began in the early 1990s, around the same time that Brewster Jennings and Associates began its counter-proliferation activities.

Special armed CIA units, masquerading as pirates themselves, accompanied the actual pirates on their fast boats when they attacked merchant vessels identified by other intelligence as likely trafficking in nuclear and missile cargo.

Edited on Wed Feb-22-06 04:09 PM by MadMaddie
These guys will do anything for political gain....It seems to me that they have committed far greater acts of Treason than the Rosenbergs!!

Ethel and Julius Rosenberg anyone?

In the light of this, I can only conclude that the defendants entered into this most serious conspiracy against their country with full realization of its implications . . .

3. Wayne Madsen links Jack Abramoff to the Nukes
http://www.waynemadsenreport.com/

After the exposure of the CIA's other counter-proliferation activities, it was not long before Asian and other international criminal gangs and syndicates, particularly those involving Russian-Israeli gangsters and smugglers tied to Cheney, Libby, and convicted GOP lobbyist Jack Abramoff, and police and military forces in the region realized that a cooperative arrangement existed between certain pirate groups and U.S. intelligence. The joint CIA-pirate gang interdictions affected a very small percentage of the tens of thousands of vessels that annually transited the Straits of Malacca.

The joint operations were launched from numerous small islets, coves, sheltered rivers, and lagoons that predominate the Malay peninsula, Borneo, Sumatra, Java, and other islands in the South China Sea and Straits of Malacca. Aceh-based pirates in northern Sumatra and Philippines-based pirates reportedly proved to be the most reliable for the CIA. Targeted merchant ships included North Korean-, Panamanian-, Liberian-, Iranian-, Pakistani-, Chinese-, Ukrainian-, Honduran-, and Bahamian-flagged ships. Most of the vessels were transiting between North Korea, China (including Macao), Pakistan, Iran, Libya, Yemen, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.
