A CROOKED FEDERAL JUDGE AND THE OIL RACKETS
===========================================
By Sherman H. Skolnick
----------------------
Here is the scene. It was October, 1990. A half million U.S.
troops were gathering in the Persian Gulf. Joined by a few
thousand troops of our so-called "Allies." One of the great
secrets was how, in the 1980s, U.S., England, France, and Germany
supplied weapons to both Iraq and Iran, to kill each other --
hundreds of thousands died -- in a war that went on for some
eight years, 1980 to 1988.
The Western Powers used the Iraq-Iran war to control the oil from
the Gulf.
Who in 1990 (or even now) knew or remembered that President
George Bush and his cronies were the ones who were kingpins in
making Kuwait a major oil producer? All the way back to 1960,
when Kuwait was a British colony. Kuwait petroleum interests
were big depositors and transacters through the Rockefeller
banks, New York and Chicago. In the U.S., particularly in the
south, Kuwait Petroleum was becoming a big competitor, such as
the chain of retail gas stations, once owned by Gulf Oil, and
then called under the name "Q-8" Gas Stations. Kuwait was
becoming, world-wide, too big a competitor to the Rockefeller oil
cartel, and the companies making up the monopoly with them.
There was a danger that oil prices, by over-production, would go
down, severely damaging the oil trust, called The Seven Sisters.
A really big secret, in 1990, and even now, was that George Bush
was a private joint venture business partner of Iraqi strongman,
Saddam Hussein. Since Bush had been Director of Central
Intelligence, 1975, the CIA created Saddam, by arranging the
political murders of his opponents, including some of his
power-grabbing relatives.
Saddam was the bully boy of the Persian Gulf, where all the other
oil producers secretly agreed to pay him and his cronies 25
percent of all the oil shipped to the West, for the decade 1980
to 1990. That was one trillion dollars worth. The kick-backs to
Saddam and his circle had been 25 billion dollars per year
(average), a total of 250 billion dollars for the decade. Saddam
shared the oil loot with his partner, George Herbert Walker Bush,
and their circle of thieves and extortionists.
The oil kick-backs were funneled through the Chicago branch of
Italy's largest bank, Banca Nazionale del Lavoro [BNL], owned in
part by the Vatican. According to Congressional documents, BNL
was the twin and interlocked with Bank of Credit and Commerce
International [BCCI]. BCCI has been a worldwide crime, political
murder, and espionage operation that became, supposedly, defunct
in 1991. Actually, BCCI has continued on through its successor
and alter ego, Pinnacle Banc Group, whose flag-ship is First
National Bank of Cicero (Chicago mafia enclave suburb). And the
Cicero bank has long been dominated by Bishop Paul Marcinkus,
once heading a church there and up until 1991 head of the Vatican
Bank. (According to an espionage-gangster scandal in Italy, the
Vatican Bank was the center of CIA/mafia gun and dope money
laundering as well as the secret sale of nuclear device parts to
terrorists. The Roger D'Onofrio Affair, a long-time American CIA
official, dual resident in U.S. and near Naples, Italy. Reuters,
Naples, 12/2/95. Associated Press, Naples, 12/2/95. See also my
story called "Clandestine Projects.")
Starting in the early 1980s, BNL and BCCI set up branches in
major cities in the U.S., including Chicago. This was arranged
by partners in the Rose Law Firm in Little Rock and through their
client, Stephens & Co., largest bond brokers worldwide, outside
of Wall Street. Forming the branches required greasing the palms
of state and federal bank regulators and others, around the
country. Facilitating this corruption were two of the Rose Law
Firm partners, Hillary Rodham Clinton and her law partner/lover,
Vincent W. Foster, Jr.
From the early 1980s, Vince Foster was the equivalent of a
military general in the super-secret National Security Agency
[NSA]. With the help of Hillary, he headed up the NSA's bank
computer services spying operation, keeping tabs on bank and
other money laundering worldwide -- both friend and foe.
Hillary Clinton's father, originally from the Chicago suburb of
Park Ridge, was reportedly a middle-level gangster, setting up
money washing through banks and insurance companies, U.S. and
overseas. Hillary being married to William Jefferson Clinton was
a marriage of convenience. From an early age, both had been
separately groomed by CIA through George Bush and others; such as
the CIA London station chief for Bill. To use espionage jargon,
Bill and Hillary were a "CIA couple."
The CIA promoted Bill Clinton from state Attorney General (which
he got from his gangster uncle, Ray Clinton), to be Governor of a
sizeable state with a small population -- Arkansas -- known as
owned by the Rockefellers. Savvy folks contend Bill is the
illegitimate great grandson of old John D. Rockefeller, founder
of the infamous Standard Oil Trust. Arkansas has been one of the
most backward places in the nation, if not in the world -- where
anything goes. In the Iran-Contra period, Governor Clinton kept
his state police from interfering with the CIA's guns & dope
operation through the small airport in western Arkansas, at Mena.
In secluded facilities nearby, in violation of federal aviation
regulations, small shops were set up and operating to re-fit
airplanes secretly with special doors and long-range fuel tanks,
to be used in faraway jungles, like Central America, good for
dropping secret loads of weapons and picking up dope for return
trips to various sites in Arkansas and across the South.
Bill Clinton's mother was the link through Hot Springs, Arkansas,
to the underworld's gambling, extortion, and prostitution
apparatus, which on occasion overlapped CIA. An outpost for
Chicago mobsters was Hot Springs, and they had done favors for
the CIA, such as aiding in the CIA's murder of President Kennedy
in Dallas.
So, in its most simplistic terms, the marriage of Bill and
Hillary Clinton was the joining of two crime families, Chicago
and Hot Springs. A merger authorized for a CIA couple by the spy
agency.
A few related examples: Operating through Chicago to reportedly
wash funds for the CIA, the Vatican Bank, and others, reportedly
has been Coral Re-Insurance, having an unlisted headquarters in
the Barbados. They reportedly money laundered 50 million dollars
of federal funds, part of 58.4 million dollars parked with
Household International and their units Household Bank.
Household, in part dominated by the Vatican, is the successor to
the Nugan Hand Bank, like Household, a CIA proprietary washing
espionage, political murder, and other covert funds. Former CIA
Director William Colby, who mysteriously disappeared and
supposedly whose body was later found, had been general counsel
of Nugan Hand Bank which supposedly became defunct following the
murder of one of its founders. Colby had a similar role for the
Nugan Hand Bank alter ego, Household.
As to Nugan Hand Bank, see the book by Jonathan Kwitny, "The
Crimes of Patriots."
I have written extensively of a complex group of state and
federal litigation in Chicago, called the Joseph Andreuccetti
Affair, involving the mysterious 50 million dollar transfer by
Household to Little Rock and from there, to the Grand Caymans
with the aid of Coral Re-Insurance and Fuji Bank.
The mysterious transfer of the 50 million dollars was to cover up
the apparent embezzlement of funds from a federally-insured
outlet, Madison Guaranty Savings & Loan -- some 47 million
dollars for which Bill and Hillary Clinton can be the targets of
federal criminal prosecution. Congressman Dan Burton (R., Ind.)
refers to the strange 50 million dollars transferred by Bill
Clinton to a known dope-money laundering center. (Congressional
Record, 5/29/96, pages H5627-28.) Some quote the congressman as
stating he vows to help put Bill and Hillary Clinton in prison.
A key player in all this was Brian Barnett Duff. In the 1980s,
Duff sat as a judge in the state court in Chicago, the Circuit
Court of Cook County. Later, the Reagan/Bush team installed Duff
as a federal district judge in Chicago. Some knew Duff to be
corrupt, but he escaped while all other local judges were sent to
federal prison in "Operation Greylord" (touched off by our work.)
One thing is for sure: Duff was subject to blackmail, a key
reason someone is selected for high office (an unfortunate
American reality.) At any moment, Duff could be whisked away to
the funny farm. On the bench, he had outbursts where he wanted
to jail the more-independent lawyers for no particular reason.
In routine cases, lawyers knew they had to grovel before him or
he would suddenly go nuts and start threatening one or more
lawyers and others.
Some just imagined Duff as some psychiatric ward inmate who
somehow escaped to high federal office. Duff acted the part and
was there to be used and blackmailed.
A case that should have been labeled a blackmailer's
dream-come-true was on U.S. District Judge Duff's docket in
October, 1990. (You are wrong if you really believe cases get on
a particular judge's docket by so-called "random selection." To
make a long story short, court corruption requires a corrupt
Court Clerk's office. A top federal Court Clerk's Office
official ended up in jail because of our work, in 1969, U.S. vs.
Robert P. Steine.)
All of the foregoing almost unraveled, worldwide, but was hushed
up -- a series of events in October, 1990.
A Texas Democrat, in some ways seeming to be a populist, was
Henry B. Gonzalez. As a very long-time congressman, he headed up
the House Banking Committee. As part of an investigation of the
twin banks, BNL and BCCI, Cong. Gonzalez sought the records of
the Chicago branch of BNL. A custodian of copies of some of
those records was the Federal Reserve Board who began giving them
to the congressman's committee.
Alarmed when they found out, the Bush/Saddam Hussein gang
instigated the Illinois State Banking Commissioner, which
regulated the BNL Chicago branch, to start an injunction suit in
federal district court in Chicago which by corrupt means was
assigned to Judge Duff, a crony of Bush. People of the State of
Illinois ex rel. William C. Harris, Bank Commissioner vs. Board
of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Case No. 90 C 6863.
Because they were the focus of the litigation, becoming an
intervening party was the House Banking Committee.
In one of his rulings, Judge Duff sought to bar Gonzalez's House
Banking Committee lawyer from Judge Duff's courtroom. In one of
his psychiatric outbursts, apparently brought on by blackmail
pressure against him, Judge Duff referred to the lawyer as an 800
pound gorilla showing no deference to Judge Duff. In other plain
words, get the hell out of my courtroom and out of this
courthouse: this matter is already "fixed," by Bush and others,
and why are you here?
(A key development: while the case was pending, the Illinois
Attorney General, representing the Banking Commissioner in
federal court, changed from GOP to Democrat. They half-heartedly
proceeded to push the case.)
Unless Congressman Gonzalez was prepared to sign -- and he wasn't
-- a national security oath of some sort that he would not reveal
the BNL Chicago records, any records he had were to be returned
and he could not get any more of the bank's records. One of the
exhibits already in the court record is a letter on behalf of
CIA, that the bank's records should not be divulged. The court
record also shows high-level negotiations between top Italian
officials, in Rome, with officials in the U.S. of the Federal
Reserve, regarding that the BNL records should not be disclosed.
Bush's blackmailable crony, Judge Duff, enjoined the release of
the records of BNL. The mass media, themselves interlocked with
crooked banks, dared not send any reporter to cover the case. In
May, 1991, an appeal of the case was heard by a three-judge panel
of the U.S. Court of Appeals, 7th Circuit, in Chicago. Most of
the judges on the 7th Circuit court (covering Wisconsin,
Illinois, and Indiana) are interlocked with banks. For example,
chief judge of that court for many years was Judge Walter J.
Cummings, Jr.: his father for years and years was board chairman
of the Continental Bank of Chicago. The Cummings family have
been major owners of that bank, along with the Vatican, the
Rothschilds, and the Queen of England (who always had a
representative of the British royal family on the Continental
board).
That bank, tied to the commodity markets, has all the years been
a center of corrupt secret nominee accounts for judges, to
corruptly influence many federal judges such as in Chicago.
Continental Bank has been the head office for several thousand
correspondent banks. (Formed before the American Civil War, like
the Chicago Board of Trade, Continental was apparently the
transfer point for Rothschild banking empire funds implicated in
the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln.)
