(Conspiracy Nation, 3/30/04) -- An ongoing series of reports by MadCow Morning News (www.madcowprod.com) probes beneath the surface of missing time in George W. Bush's past.
Many assume, for example, that Bush II's absence from the National Guard in 1971 was time spent loafing. But in "The Secret History Of George W. Bush," journalist Daniel Hopsicker reveals that "evidence unearthed in our investigation indicates that George W. Bush, while supposedly serving in the Texas Guard in 1971, may instead have been detailed to the massive covert operation of the U.S. government going on at that very moment in Central America."
We have the father, George Herbert Walker Bush (Bush I), groomed at Yale, a member of the secret society Skull and Bones, Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director, and having a covert history going back as far as the John F. Kennedy assassination. We have "W" Bush, the son, groomed at Yale, a member of the secret society Skull and Bones, with a father deep inside the intelligence milieu. It's not hard to discern that the son, George W. Bush, may have been recruited into the CIA.
The apparent cover for Bush II's 1971 activities was his work for an unnamed agricultural firm. Supposedly, "W" Bush spent 1971 evaluating plant nurseries in Central America. But was the current White House resident doing more than that? Hopsicker suggests he was.
The unnamed agricultural firm for which Bush II worked employed persons associated with "Poppy" Bush's Zapata Oil Company. This included the agricultural firm's owner, who had been both vice-president and president of Zapata Oil for eight years, Robert H. Gow. (Gow, notably, is also a member of Skull and Bones.) His father, Ralph Gow, was on the Board of Directors of the United Fruit Company, itself Rockefeller-owned and implicated in the overthrow of the Arbenz government in Guatemala. (See, e.g., The CIA's Greatest Hits by Mark Zepezauer. Odonian Press, 1994. ISBN: 1-878825-30-5)
"During the summer of 1974 George W Bush flew for a CIA-connected airline in Alaska later suspected by the Iran Contra Commission of being involved in CIA drug trafficking in support of the Contras," writes Hopsicker.
"The [New York] Times reported that a number of onetime employees [of the airline] say they found themselves doing contract work for the CIA."
Tellingly, "W" Bush's autobiography does not mention this time spent in Alaska, working for Alaska International Air, nor does Bush talk about it.
"Far from confirming the conventional wisdom that Bush spent the more poorly-documented stretches of time in his biography with his cowboy boots up on a desk somewhere, pulling the tab on another 'tall cold one,' the new evidence uncovered points instead to the far more sinister conclusion that during his supposed 'lost years' Bush was being initiated into a national-security oligarchy, a secret and invisible state within the public state, composed of multiple generations of certain 'blue-blood' Eastern families like Bush's, who appear to have been running America's intelligence agencies as if they were a 'family business.'"
Alaska International Air, which later changed its name to Mark Air, was investigated by Senator John Kerry (Skull and Bones, 1966) of the Iran Contra Commission.
Recently there have been unnoticed but disturbing reports about Kerry. Last Friday, an historian reported the theft of confidential FBI documents, some detailing government surveillance of John Kerry during the early 1970s. In "Kerry's FBI Files, Who'd Want 'Em?" Rush Limbaugh implies a cover-up of Senator Kerry's anti-Vietnam War past. That's one level, but there may be deeper waters.
In another recent story, Insight magazine complains that the mass media is ignoring a report that Kerry participated in a 1971 "assassination summit." ("Witnesses Say Kerry Participated In 1971 'Assassination Summit,'" The Insider, Insight magazine, March 29, 2004) Allegedly, a secret meeting of Vietnam Veterans Against the War considered assassinating U.S. leaders. Kerry reportedly attended the meeting and voted against the plan.
On the surface it appears as if Kerry was extremely radical at the time. Beneath the surface, Kerry may have been spying on the group and reporting back to (e.g.) COINTELPRO handlers. That would also explain why Kerry's FBI files seem to have disappeared: to hide his deep cover connections.
If Yale-groomed and Skull and Bones-initiated John Kerry was lured into deep-cover government espionage, that along with George W. Bush's murky "lost years" bodes ill for the United States. The Yale CIA could be running Tweedledee/Tweedledum candidates, owned by them, for U.S. president. This happened also in 1992, when Yale's CIA George Herbert Walker Bush and Yale's CIA Bill Clinton (see Compromised: Bush, Clinton and the CIA by John Cummings and Terry Reed) vied for the job of U.S. president.
John F. Kennedy was a Harvard man. Maybe that's what lead to his assassination.
