MONICA-GATE
===========
By Professor Peter Dale Scott
-----------------------------
[CN: I received the following from Kenn Thomas, author of
several books and publisher of Steamshovel Press magazine. (A
link to Steamshovel is at the Conspiracy Nation website (see
below.)) Because Professor Scott ends by saying, "feel free to
forward this," I have taken the liberty of doing so. Professor
Scott is the author of several books, including the highly
recommended *Deep Politics*.]

Monicagate
by Peter Dale Scott
In *Deep Politics and the Death of JFK* I write that study of any
one of our deep political crises will tell you more about the
rest. Apparently this prediction holds true for Monicagate as
well.
I am not talking about the recurrence of Washington lawyers like
Robert Bennett and Charles Ruff, who moved into the Washington
mainstream with Watergate, and now represent Clinton. Nothing
surprising or instructive about that. (I haven't checked to see
if the two Robert Bennetts are in fact one and the same, but
think it likely.)
But did you notice that the person who forwarded Linda Tripp's
tapes of Lewinsky to the FBI was a book agent and
pseudo-journalist called Lucianne Goldberg, who in 1972 "told the
McGovern campaign that she worked for the North American
Newspaper Alliance"? [NANA] Goldberg's role was not simply that
of a cut-out or messenger for Linda Tripp. On Jan. 22 she told
the press "that she encouraged her friend Linda Tripp... to tape
conversations with intern Monica Lewinsky." (All quotations are
from an article in the January 23 *San Francisco Chronicle,* p.
A11.) She kept the tapes for Tripp and later turned them over to
the FBI. If Tripp instigated Lewinsky, it would appear that
Goldberg instigated Tripp.
Both Tripp and Goldberg are apparently Republicans. Tripp was
one of only two holdovers from the Bush White House. Goldberg
was exposed in 1973 as "a spy for Nixon while she traveled with
the press corps" covering McGovern's 1972 campaign. It was at
this time that she said she worked for NANA (North American
Newspaper Alliance), and supplied an address for NANA which "is
the same as her current residence" in Manhattan. Watergate
investigators "said the Nixon campaign paid her $1,000 a week."
Not mentioned in today's story is the relevant fact in 1972, as
today, Lucianne Goldberg was snooping for sex. She told the late
Anthony Lukas (*Nightmare*, p. 161) that the Nixon people "were
looking for really dirty stuff...who was sleeping with whom, what
the Secret Service men were doing with the stewardesses, who was
smoking pot on the plane -- that sort of thing."
Serious students of the JFK Assassination have long been
interested in NANA, which supplied Priscilla Johnson (better
known now as Priscilla McMillan) with the job (or, to some,
cover) by which she voyaged to Moscow and there interviewed Lee
Harvey Oswald on the urging of U.S. Consul Snyder. After the
assassination, Johnson developed a close relationship with Marina
Oswald, in connection with a book contract originally arranged by
C.D. Jackson of Life Magazine at the urging of Allen Dulles.
NANA was created by a senior veteran of OSS, Ernest Cuneo, and
continued to have intelligence connections. In 1963, before the
assassination, it had come under Congressional scrutiny for
publishing Chinese Nationalist propaganda, for which it had been
paid large sums without registering as a foreign agent. At this
same time its President, Ernest Cuneo, was a member of the
Citizens' Committee for a Free Cuba, a group calling in 1963 for
a more militant anti-Castro policy, and meeting with dissident
Cuban exiles.
I am not here suggesting anything about the guilt or innocence of
Clinton, only that at least one of the people making his life
difficult has a background suggestive of past intrigues. I hope
that someone reading this can check Lucianne Goldberg's current
address, and see if in fact (as she alleged) it was also the
address of NANA.
Feel free to forward this.
