The Lafarge Connection
Image: Section of Mark Lombardi drawing
(Conspiracy Nation, 12/19/07) -- Mark Lombardi (1951-2000) accumulated thousands of index cards dealing with various scandals such as BCCI, Harken Energy, and the Savings & Loan debacle. To keep track of it all, he began sketching connections. A portion of one of his drawings is seen at left. Looking closely, one sees names such as "James R. Bath", "George W. Bush", "Sheik Salim bin Laden", and "Osama bin Laden."

Lombardi supposedly committed suicide in March 2000, as also did Vince Foster supposedly commit suicide in July 1993. Abbie Hoffman's death is also supposed to have been a suicide, but this is disputed. Some say Hoffman was murdered. (See "Defrauding America" by Rodney Stich). Besides plane crashes (e.g. death of Dorothy Hunt), a typical American signature is murder disguised as suicide. The British signature is motor vehicle crashes, such as T.E. Lawrence (motorcycle crash) and Diana Spencer (tunnel car crash).

Lombardi's "1999 drawing, entitled George W. Bush, Harken Energy and Jackson Stephens, ca 1979–90, shows the proven connections between James Bath, the Bush and bin Laden families, and business deals in Texas and around the world." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Lombardi)

That name, Jackson Stephens, also connects with the Clintons of Arkansas. Another nexus linking the Bush Family of Connecticut with the Clintons of Arkansas is the Lafarge connection. Lafarge is a French industrial company specialising in cement, concrete, and gypsum wallboard. (Wikipedia, Dec. 19, 2007) In the early 1990s, Hillary Clinton was paid over $30,000 per year by Lafarge. ("What You May Not Know About Hillary Clinton," Washington Post, Dec. 9, 2007, p. A23). And a "substantial owner" of Lafarge was George H.W. Bush, former CIA director and father of "Dubya" Bush. ("The unfinished business between Saddam Hussein and George H.W. Bush -- Part 4", by Larry Chin, Online Journal contributing editor. http://www.onlinejournal.org/Special_Reports/Chin111402/chin111402.html)

It was while perusing the archives of Sherman H. Skolnick (1930-2006) that this editor came across the following claim: "As a sizeable stockholder of a unit of a French firm, American LaFarge, the Elder Bush was implicated in reportedly supplying the ingredients for poison gas to be manufactured by Iraq, to be used against Iraq's domestic dissidents, namely, the Kurds, as well as against the Iranians, during the Iran-Iraq War, 1980 to 1988. A Director of American LaFarge, naturally, was Hillary Rodham Clinton, wife of the Bush Family pal." ("Overthrow of the American Republic, Part 1", Sept. 22, 2001. The Skolnick archives may still be available at http://www.skolnicksreport.com). Doing a little double-checking substantiates Skolnick's claim.

Another source confirms, "Hillary Clinton was on the board when LaFarge Cement shifted from burning natural gas to burning toxic wastes to heat their cement kilns." ("Has Hillary already been selected?" http://www.oilempire.us/hillary.html)

Someone named James R. Bath is present in the Lombardi drawings. Bath, according to the Wikipedia reference, "was a former director of Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI), and part owner of Arbusto Energy with George W. Bush, with whom Bath served as a member of the Texas Air National Guard during the Vietnam War... Artist Mark Lombardi illustrated associations between Bath, the Bush family, the bin Laden family, and BCCI in drawings put on display in 2000 and now available in a book."

Reportedly, "Thirteen lines originate with or point to James R. Bath [in the Lombardi drawings], more than any other name presented. Among those linked to this obscure yet central character are George W. Bush, Jr., George H.W. Bush, Sr., Senator Lloyd Bentsen of Texas, Governor John B. Connally of Texas, Sheik Salim bin Laden of Saudi Arabia, and Sheik Salim's younger brother, Osama bin Laden." ("Who is James R. Bath?" http://www.wburg.com/0202/arts/lombardi.html)

Lombardi's book of drawings, "Mark Lombardi: Global Networks", may still be in print. It is reportedly published by Independent Curators, Inc.; August 2003. ISBN: 0916365670.

Conspiracy Nation had previously reported, back in 2003, on how the upcoming Hillary presidency was ceremonialized in 1997. "When Bill and Hillary Clinton dedicated the Franklin Delano Roosevelt monument in Washington, DC, it was their not-so-subtle way of saying, 'We'll be back.'" ("Hidden Power Of 'Ma' Bush", http://www.shout.net/~bigred/Babs.htm). The Mainstream Media (MSM) code word for this is, "inevitability." The Conspiracy Nation code word is, "Rigged election."

And what kind of "change" will this be? It is just more of an "Amenhotep Dynasty": George H.W. Bush (Amenhotep I); Bill Clinton (Amenhotep II); George W. Bush (Amenhotep III); and Hillary Clinton (Amenhotep IV). It is a rigged "Faro" (Pharaoh) game! (Barack Obama is Tutankhamun. Rudy Giuliani is vizier to the Amenhoteps.)
