He looked at me awhile before he replied. Then he said: ‘I know nothing about it. I then laid copies of some of the documents that I had on his desk that proved that Halliburton was doing this. He said he would look into it and called security to usher me out of the office.

Later that day (it was after Christmas in 2001) I reported to Tenet that I had found evidence that Halliburton was short-shipping to the Pentagon and the war zones. He at first said, ‘That is nothing new’. And then, realizing that he had just admitted knowing about it without correcting it said, ‘Have a report about it on my desk before Christmas'. He had been saying that probably for weeks and now, under the stress of my asking him about this corruption, he inappropriately persevered that comment. Christmas had passed about 3 days before, at the very least.

When he caught that mistake a moment later, he admitted: ‘I just can't get rid of that problem’.

I then asked him what he had tried to do about it.

He did not reply. Instead he sent me to speak to another man he said that he had put to work on the problem. Yes, you guessed it correctly: he sent me to speak to Halliburton's Representative to the CIA. I had just come from his office that morning and I said so.

Tenet played ignorant of the fact that the man worked for Halliburton. I reminded Tenet that I had been asked to show my Halliburton ID to even get to his office. He offered to call down there to make sure I could get in when I went. I told him that it was his responsibility to correct Halliburton's short-shipping and its invasion of the CIA, not Halliburton’s. He said that he couldn't because his hands were tied behind his back by the White House. I made a mock walk around to the other side of him to look for his hands tied behind him and said: ‘That is not what I see’. He said: ‘There is nothing I can do about it’. I picked up his phone and handed it to him and said: ‘You can start by calling Congress, the FBI, and the New York Times. They would believe you, if you did so’.

He declined to make those calls. I told him that the head of the CIA should be a man of courage.
But he never did make the calls. I went to my office and started making calls.

First I faxed the documents I had over to the GAO [General Accounting, now Accountability, Office]. I needed to have copies of them outside of my office before it got raided. They were not national security secrets: they were Halliburton short-shipping papers. One of them was even a memo on Halliburton stationery discussing the short-shipping policy and how well it was working to make profits for the corporation.

When I called the GAO to make sure that they received the documents, they checked them carefully to make sure that they were all legible. There were over 100 pages of documents and it took them a while. After they finished they agreed to look for the GAO investigator who had come out to speak to me before [details omitted here: Ed.].. But before they could get him on the phone to me, there was a knock at my door and in barged Halliburton's Representative to the CIA.

[Now read what happened next... Ed.]:

FLUNG INTO HALLIBURTON’S OWN JAIL CELL BENEATH ITS OFFICES INSIDE THE CIA...
He yanked my phone out of the wall. Then he had his security guards ransack my office and take every shred of paper out of it. Then he had me bodily hauled off to a prison cell located inside the Halliburton offices at the CIA. It was in the basement there. There I was intimidated and my life was threatened. I wondered if it would be ended.

It occurred to me that the CIA head of building security might not know that Halliburton had its own torturers and assassins. I decided to cooperate. I promised not to investigate Halliburton for the rest of the year. I figured that I could keep my promise for the 2 days left in the year. Somehow they accepted my promise and let me go.

I immediately went up to Tenet's office and complained and showed him the bruises that they had given me. He said: 'There, there, everything will be alright in the morning'.

That was not true. Halliburton was still stealing the US taxpayer's dollars in the morning and the troops were still going without. But at that time I was too tired to fight any more that day. I decided to put myself in a place that I could keep my promise and requested leave to fly back to my home in California. Tenet agreed and I managed to get out of the building without further incident. I believe that the GAO still has the documents that I sent them buried in its files.

They started an investigation into it and then it was interrupted. But I believe that they are willing to go forward with the investigation now, if asked to do so. I believe that your asking them to do it would be enough to accomplish that. The GAO has done a lot of good work. You could write a letter to its Head and ask them to restart that investigation.

CHENEY, ON BEHALF OF HALLIBURTON, ROUTINELY BARKED ORDERS AT TENET
It was not true that Cheney stopped running Halliburton [when he took office].That is a complete myth. He called in orders to the man I worked for [Tenet: Ed.] almost every day and sometimes twice or more times a day. He remained the functional head of it in all but name. No one at Halliburton had the power to override his orders. Second, it is not true that he divested himself of the profits of the
company. He merely hid how they got to him through a series of shell companies.

[The veteran CIA officer then explained how in detail how to compare the ‘creative’ accounting software and methodology employed by Halliburton, the CIA and the Pentagon, from which it was possible to identify how the massive ongoing frauds, designed to extract illegal profits out of the Afghanistan and Iraq Wars, were/are perpetrated: Ed.].

CHENEY EMPLOYS FELONS INSIDE THE CIA AND THE PENTAGON
Halliburton rigs a Back Door in the Pentagon Accounting Computer:

It was brought to my notice that Halliburton had already come to the attention of a Government investigator. We have already seen that Halliburton had both overbilled and short-shipped. The buyer was the helpless taxpayer. The investigator worked inside the GAO and had access to both Halliburton's bills and [to] the Pentagon's payment of those bills. But there was a problem. Those bills and the payments did not match up. In spite of the bills being grossly inflated in the first place, the payments exceeded the bills! That was not by a little, it was by about 35%.

GAO INVESTIGATOR MADE FULLY AWARE OF THESE ORCHESTRATED SCAMS
The GAO investigator was the same man who had come to talk to me in my office. He remembered me and that I had tried to contact him at the end of 2001. So, he had asked to speak to me by calling the CIA. The CIA would not let my phone ring whenever he called [thereby covering up its ongoing complicity with Halliburton in these scams designed to ‘milk the wars’: Ed.].

But by happenstance one of the many times he tried to call me I picked up the phone to try to call someone else. So, we connected. I agreed to meet with him outside of the CIA and later that same day we met at a restaurant in Mclean, not far from CIA Headquarters. He had with him copies of all of the materials that I had faxed over to him. He started by asking me questions on them and taking notes. He was particularly interested in documenting where I had picked up each document. Then he asked me what I knew of the Pentagon overpaying Halliburton. It had been two weeks since the CIA's creative accounting department had alerted me to that problem. By then I knew a great deal about how that Pentagon overbilling occurred.

HALLIBURTON OFFICES SET UP INSIDE THE PENTAGON, TOO
Rumsfeld had let Halliburton set up offices inside the Pentagon just like Tenet had let [Halliburton] set them up at the CIA. That was the result of secret Executive Orders signed by Bush, Jr. [Editor: In other words, this organised criminal operation was explicitly authorised by criminalist President George W. Bush Jr. from the outset, who is accordingly being fingered by this courageous former top CIA officer as being vulnerable to the charge of treason, on the basis of these findings ALONE(irrespective of the innumerable other acts of treason that he has committed, and that we have identified in these reports].

I had by that time a copy of that Executive Order [in the singular here: Ed.] and handed it to the GAO investigator along with many other documents that I brought to that meeting. National security was being trashed by the Bush Administration and what I did had the potential to help restore US national security.

None of the documents would have helped the Russians, the Chinese, etc. wage war against us.
I had had that independently verified by CIA analysts before I handed over those documents.

Correcting the theft of funds would help US national security. One of the documents that I handed over was the list of Halliburton personnel at the CIA and at the Pentagon. Their physical offices were together in each location with their own security personnel. I verified that with my own eyes the next time I had occasion to go to the Pentagon 20 minutes' drive away. In addition, I handed over a document that listed their job titles from their CIA or Pentagon badge application which is all that personnel in those locations had on them. Even a visitor to the CIA had to fill out such a form. The amount of checking on that person's background to get that badge is a call or fax to the FBI to make sure that they are not on a wanted list. The CIA also checks their name and Driver's License against its 'suspected foreign agents' and after 9/11 its 'suspected terrorists' list.

But no-one called to verify that they were not felons who had served their time [in jail] already. Thus, when I checked, I found that ‘Halliburton's Representative to the CIA’ [the man who had flung the officer into the cell, after ripping the phone from the wall: Ed.] who was then already my boss for 10 hours a week [in a curious twist not covered here: Ed.]. was a felon who had served time on a
felony conviction of fraud.

CIA-BASED HALLIBURTON FELON PARTNERED BY PENTAGON-BASED HALLIBURTON FELON
Not unsurprisingly, then, one of the top men at Halliburton's Pentagon Suite was his partner in that crime who had also been convicted of a felony. The crime in question was stealing new vehicles bought by the US Army in large numbers while they were en route to be delivered to the Army.

They had then been sold overseas and the profits pocketed [in an exact replay of what went on in the ‘former’ Soviet union after the fake ‘collapse of Communism: Ed.]. His Pentagon badge listed him as an 'accountant'. I could find no evidence that he had been to business school unless one counted his jail time as that. His resume that I found elsewhere where he served on a board as a Director on a company, listed a business school during the time he spent in prison, about 4 years.

I called up that business school and asked if they had a 'prison outreach program'. They said no. I asked them if they had a graduate by that name and they declined to comment. But when I faxed them a copy of the man's resume on CIA letterhead saying that he was posing as a graduate of their school they issued a denial that he had ever enrolled.

I gave all those papers to the investigator. Then I gave him the proof that Halliburton's own CEO, Cheney, had known that they were felons by the fact that he had blocked a background check on them when they went to a White House function that he hosted. In addition, I gave that investigator the proof in the format of several documents together, which showed that this Halliburton felon posing as an accountant had caused the Pentagon to overpay Halliburton [huge sums of money].

CHENEY DIRECTLY INVOLVED IN EMPLOYING AND INSTRUCTING PENTAGON FELON
The evidence that that Halliburton felon was the man responsible for the overpayments by the Pentagon consisted of four elements:

• First off, I had a memo from Cheney to him that was handwritten in Cheney's hand and addressed to him personally which directed him to make sure that the Pentagon pays us all that it owes us and then some. The memorandum appeared to have been hand-delivered. The CIA's internal forgery department verified the note as Cheney's handwriting and not a forgery. I try to do careful work.

So their statement to that fact was a document that I handed over with the original of that memo.

• The next piece of evidence was a letter sent by that felon to a friend and co-conspirator, in this case my Halliburton boss. In that letter he bragged: ‘I am getting more than we bargained for out of the Pentagon’. It went on to encourage him to meet him to 'find out how'. I intercepted this letter before it got to my Halliburton boss, copied it and then put it onto his desk. I was thus witting to the fact that they were going to discuss that topic at their next meeting.

• The third piece of evidence was a tape of their conversation at that meeting. On that tape the
Pentagon felon bragged with delight about how gullible people were at the Pentagon. He spoke about his going into the Accounting Department of the Pentagon and making friends with some of them. About how he managed to bring his own programmer in to check the bills from Halliburton on the excuse that they had not been paid on time.

Then his programmer had managed to insert code by calling up the Halliburton computer from the Pentagon's Accounting Computer to check if all the outstanding bills had been paid. That code put in a back door into the Pentagon's Accounting Computer, so that Halliburton could later change the amount that the Pentagon would pay whenever they wanted.

The reason that Halliburton had been caught was that someone forgot to change their billings up to what they had put in the Pentagon's computer.

• The fourth piece of evidence that I gave him was my boss having one of his programmers insert that same code into the CIA's Accounting computer. I waited until he did it and then I collected the evidence, the code. The code from the CIA's Accounting Computer with a couple of lines before and after it to show where it had been inserted was the fourth piece of evidence. That evidence was on a computer disc. I had one of the accounting people sign it as coming from their computer.

I had first taken all that evidence to my boss, Tenet, to give him a chance to correct the problem of Halliburton ripping off the American taxpayer via the CIA and Pentagon. He looked at the evidence and said ‘Well, you certainly have done a thorough job as usual’. Then he offered to despatch the evidence over to the White House to 'correct the problem'.

I immediately picked up the evidence off his desk and, walking out of his office, said that I could do that myself. I did send a copy of the evidence to the White House. I did that after I met with the GAO official. The White House managed to block the investigation.

RUMSFELD AND BUSH PERSONALLY FINGERED MAKING MONEY OUT OF WAR SCAMS
The following section needs to be read as presented because to omit any segment loses the thread and might jeopardise understanding of how the kickbacks were orchestrated:

Was Rumsfeld Criminally Negligent in Protecting US Troops and national security?

This is another case that grew out of my moving documents from the Pentagon to the CIA on DCI Tenet's orders in August 2001... It was brought to my attention by a Colonel at the Pentagon who handed me a stack of documents ON THE CONDITION THAT I WOULD READ THEM THAT NIGHT.

It was a pretty big stack, over an inch high. It took me until 4 am in the morning before I had a firm grasp on the case he had handed me. Since I was in an office at the Pentagon, it was easy for me to immediately start investigating it. The hour was late, but that was a good time to look for and collect the computer files and other documents that I wanted to go with the Colonel's documents. By THE morning, I had had no sleep, but I had collected much evidence, and laid it in the inbox the desk of the Pentagon's Criminal Investigation Unit's Head.

The amount of evidence was over two inches high of documents and four computer discs, one of which was from the Accounting Office. The Colonel who had handed me that case then spent all morning in that office giving that Head his eye-witness testimony with regard to the matter. That testimony covered only one fourth of the case, and I sent in another three Pentagon officials in the afternoon to flesh the rest of the case out. Having the rank of a Two-Star General was essential to that effort. It would not have happened had I not out-ranked the Head of the Criminal Investigation Unit at the Pentagon, as he was loath to investigate. It would also not have happened had I not also personally breathed down his neck repeatedly during the day, by going in person to check how he was doing. Each time I came by, I insisted that he give me a full briefing on his investigations so far. I did that four times during the course of the day. I did not dictate the content of his investigation, but I did insist that he be vigorous in pursuing it. I mention this practical framework of the case because I am mainly interested in the larger issue that these cases were not getting resolved.

The Colonel giving me the case had been over to that Criminal Investigation Unit several times previously to file complaints. He was never satisfied that they were investigated. I was now able to confirm that. Each time the investigations were dead-ended. It was clear to me by the end of the day that the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Pentagon was professionally dedicated to covering up corruption, not investigating or correcting it. [That's what it was FOR: Ed.].

POSSIBILITY OF FOREIGN PENETRATION OPS INVESTIGATED
I later took some steps to make sure that this was not due to Russian, Chinese, or other foreign
interventions liable to harm US national security. That I DID have a mandate to do from the CIA,
wherever I went on assignment. That mandate had been put in place by an Executive Order of
President Clinton. It could not be over-ridden except by a duly elected President.

HIGH-LEVEL CONSPIRACY TO DEFRAUD THE TAXPAYER
Thus, I had some discretion to act outside of the direct orders of the Director of CIA, Tenet, or the Chief of the JCS. But I could not press this beyond the limits at which it would break due to political
practices. In the process of that investigation of possible foreign influence behind the corruption, I ran across a wide-reaching high-level conspiracy to defraud the US taxpayer. I will be delineating that further in this series of about 12 cases.

THE DEFECTIVE SAUDI-BUILT GUN THAT JUMPED TO THE LEFT WHEN FIRED
The documents that the Colonel had handed me were on the development and purchasing of a new free-standing artillery unit. The weapon, a piece of artillery, did not function as well as an older brand and it was dangerous to use. Two men had died during the testing of it. But the Pentagon kept on ordering it. The Colonel knew that the problem had to be kickbacks, as there was no other rational explanation for what was going on.

But without that proof, the case was had been repeatedly closed as ‘unfounded'. He did not have the espionage background needed to be able to collect that evidence. As a result he was stymied. By morning I had been able to lay financial transactions on the top of the inbox. They showed that at least two Generals had accepted kickbacks straight into their US bank accounts from that (Saudi) company. Those transactions occurred in the week after they voted to buy more of those artillery pieces. The amounts of the transactions were large relative to their salaries, which is how the CIA gages the effectiveness of bribes.

Any amount greater than 15% of a person's monthly salary is almost certain to have swayed their decisionmaking processes. In each case, the amount of the transaction was more than the General
made in a single month. A CIA officer accepting that amount of money from the KGB or a foreign
source would likely have had a bullet put through his body by the CIA, or been tried for treason.

Yet, at the Pentagon these kinds of actions were largely tolerated, as if they did not undermine
national security. In order to fight a war effectively the equipment has to work and be safe to use. Selling a secret a foreign power might or might not make a difference in the outcome of a war; not having good equipment was sure to make a difference.

GENERALS RECEIVED KICKBACK MONEY PAID FROM A FOREIGN BANK
In this case, the company making the artillery was a foreign (Saudi: see below) company and the Generals had been paid from a foreign bank. It certainly should have raised a red flag in anyone's mind. The CIA should have immediately been called in to investigate. But they had not been.

Some months, previously the Colonel had put in a complaint to Rumsfeld about the sheer lack of investigation by the Pentagon's Criminal Investigation Unit on this case. In it he had cited the fact that the company making the artillery was a foreign one and raised the issue as to whether it was a
deliberate attempt to sabotage US national security by selling them 'worthless junk'.

He had asked Rumsfeld refer the matter to the CIA. That had not happened. By the afternoon, I had the financial records to show that FIVE Generals had received sizeable kickbacks from that foreign
corporation in the week after the vote to place the order. In addition, I had the signed confession of one of those men. I did not use threats or torture to get it. I did use friendly persuasion. Not only did he confess, but he admitted in writing that there was a conspiracy to ensure that that group of
Generals got the kickbacks. They had met not just once, but at least twice to conspire on how to ensure that the order went through. Rumsfeld had cancelled a competing meeting that had dealt
with national security issues, without explanation. That allowed two further Generals to attend the
second meeting. There were six Generals at that second meeting, if I remember correctly.

SIX CORRUPT GENERALS RESIGN QUIETLY
The next day they quietly resigned in the face of the investigation. One of them told me privately but refused to put it in writing that Rumsfeld had cancelled the competing meeting 'in order for us to organize and get that artillery approved' for Pentagon purchasing. The next day, that Colonel brought me ten similar cases, since I had solved that one to his great satisfaction. It was my last day
at the Pentagon on the assignment to pick up the documents Tenet ordered me to collect.

FOREIGN COMPUTERS WITH BUGS SOLD INTO THE PENTAGON FOR KICKBACKS
I did not have time while at the Pentagon to solve them, so I undertook to mentor the Colonel in how to collect the evidence of the bribes. During the course of that day he managed to collect
evidence well enough to resolve one of those ten cases ad hoc. The guilty party also quietly
resigned. He, too, had been bribed by a foreign company. At least, in that case, the product
worked. It was not a case of the Pentagon ordering the product. It was a case of him selling
them on the black market from his office inside the Pentagon to other Pentagon officials.

The product was a foreign (Japanese) lap-top computer. Military secrets were almost sure to be put on them given the location that they were sold into. They had not been vetted by the Pentagon to ensure that they did not have a back door on them to allow the files, conference calls, and voices
within range of them, etc. to be transmitted back to that foreign country. They were popular at the
Pentagon for their advanced conference video call capacities. I took one of these computers back to the CIA with me, where it was verified that the laptop did have the function of acting just like an
advanced bug to steal files, audio, and photographic images.

The optics on it were advanced enough to read documents off the desk of and wall behind the user! It automatically turned itself on and focused on text. Even before I verified that the laptop had been designed to steal military secrets, it was clear from the outer circumstances that that was likely to be the case. Otherwise, why not sell it into some other location? The laptop cost a lot more with those advanced spy systems on it than a regular user could afford. That was why it was only offered for sale inside the Pentagon: the foreign country was paying so that it could be sold very
cheaply and would out-compete other laptops at the Pentagon.

RUMSFELD BLOCKS INVESTIGATIONS: GREEN LIGHT FOR CONTINUED CORRUPTION
About 500 of those [foreign, specially equipped] laptops had already been sold at the Pentagon. The Colonel had pressed the Criminal Investigation Unit to investigate those black market sales.

They had not done so, nor had the matter been referred to the CIA for investigation. The Criminal Investigation Unit was not willing to press charges even after being presented with the evidence that the Pentagon official had taken a foreign bribe. I could not press the issue any further because Rumsfeld had overruled me. He had already sent the Head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) down to the Criminal Investigation Unit's Head to tell him not to prosecute the six Generals.

I had called Rumsfeld while he was in his office to protest [but] he had refused to take my call.

Rumsfeld nixed actual prosecution of our cases but we still managed to get the resignations.
Rumsfeld blocking the prosecutions gave an ongoing green light to corruption at the Pentagon.

I did collect the evidence that Rumsfeld sent General Shelton, the Chief of the JCS, down to
prevent the prosecution of the six Generals. I collected a copy of Rumsfeld's phone call to
Shelton. In addition, I collected the security camera evidence that General Shelton promptly
went down and talked to the Head of the Criminal Investigation Unit. The action that the Head took in not prosecuting the six Generals or the laptop-selling official speaks for itself as the evidence.

In addition, I collected evidence that that Head of Criminal Investigations had not prosecuted a number of other corruption cases in which the evidence of guilt was very abundant and solid. Furthermore, I had collected a van load of corruption related documents which proved that corruption was widespread at the Pentagon.

My orders from Tenet were to deliver those documents to the CIA. There was nothing in those
orders that prevented me from xeroxing as many of them as I could xerox without delaying that
delivery past the time that Tenet had requested delivery. I had been in the espionage business
collecting documents for over thirty years. When doing so will aid national security, one has a
duty to collect them and try to deal with them in a way that accomplishes that objective. It should
therefore not surprise anyone, that I had ALL of them xeroxed during the course of the 10 days
that they were collected. That is, although it was clear to me that I could not get the corruption
appropriately dealt with at the Pentagon, I still had hopes that one day I'd be able to somewhere
succeed. There were a number of moving vans removing documents from the Pentagon on that
day. I had already stated that this was only one of three categories that Tenet ordered me to
collect. I thus had the cover to load one van full of the copies of the corruption documents.

WHITE HOUSE, TENET, RUMSFELD, JUSTICE, FBI BLOCKED INVESTIGATIONS
The question was where to send it to get the corruption cases prosecuted. I did not have a good
answer to that. I sent it to an Army base where I trusted the integrity of the army commander to
secure it, until I did have a good answer to that. It is still intact at that Army base.

The cases, many of them, have grown old. But as I looked into the matter of how to get them prosecuted, the facts were not encouraging. The White House was against it. My boss Tenet was against it. Rumsfeld was against it. The Head of the Joint Chifs of Staff was against it and the later replacement was not for it, either.

The Justice Department had not investigated the obvious Halliburton corruption and put them out of business and some of their personnel in prison, as it should have done, on the evidence.

Before I left the Pentagon I sent that evidence by courier to the Director of the FBI. Mr Rumsfeld's corruption was happening in the United States and it was within the jurisdiction of the FBI, not the CIA to follow through on it. When the FBI did not act to enforce the law appropriately, that was more evidence of a conspiracy at levels above Rumseld to allow corruption. That artillery case should still exist in the files of the Pentagon. That case is relevant evidence in the larger case of whether the US Administration is criminally negligent in not prosecuting corruption cases. I allege that it is, and that its failure to do so has led to the death of US troops from faulty and shoddy equipment.

The two men who died in the testing of that artillery [piece] should not have died. Earlier tests of the artillery had shown that it 'jumped' to the left when fired, nearly 20% of the time. It was a very heavy piece of equipment. On the earlier tests it had injured about 25 men and sent a handful of them to the hospital. When the heavy gun jumped as the man looked through the sighting, it had caused brain concussions and knocked men unconscious.

Other serious injuries were the result of the artillery falling over onto the person firing it. In one of those incidents the artillery piece had caused massive haemorrhaging into the soft tissue of the leg. The man had had to be hospitalized. If I remember correctly, he had had to undergo emergency surgery to repair a rupture to his femoral artery. That crush injury to his artery was so severe that in the medical report I read the surgeons had considered amputating the leg.

Engineers evaluated the artillery and decreed it 'unsound'. They cited that it was poorly designed and poorly manufactured. It was made in a foreign country where manufacturing processes were substandard as a general rule. They had written that the artillery piece was unstable on its base even when not being fired. And they had speculated that it jumped to the left because the quality control at the factory was so poor, that the bore was not straight. There was not a single reason, not even a cheap price, to recommend it for purchase by the Pentagon, based upon the objective evidence that I read. Yet the testing of it were continued, even after it was clear that it was shoddy equipment and unsafe. That happened because obvious corruption was not corrected.

DEFECTIVE ARTILLERY PIECE MADE BY PART OF THE CARLYLE GROUP
The maker of the artillery piece was part of the Carlyle Group. That was a clear conflict of
interest for a sitting President to be making money from weapons that were being sold to
the Pentagon. It was not until I returned to the CIA that I was able to confirm that the US
Administration was making money off the sale of that defective artillery piece.

PAYMENTS CHANNELLED VIA CIA SHELL COMPANIES FOR BUSH, RUMSFELD ACCOUNTS
The money made from the sales of the artillery item had a pathway to the Bush accounts. It took me longer to collect the banking records which linked the sale of the weapons to the Pentagon, to the exact payment amount into the Bush accounts. It was while I was writing software to query the CIA's creative accounting computer that I came across the transactions. CIA shell companies were used to hide the funnelling of the money from the artillery manufacturer to Bush's accounts: 9.6% of the Pentagon's payment for the defective artillery piece ended up in President George W. Bush Jr.'s private accounts. About 2.4% ended up in Rumsfeld's account.

Rumsfeld had, according to the Pentagon documents that I later obtained, taken several steps that indicated that he knowingly endangered the men's lives. His signature was on a memorandum that directed many more of the artillery pieces to be ordered and 'retested', even though one man had already died from being crushed beneath it when it jumped to the left. If I remember correctly, the number ordered was 1,000. It certainly seemed excessive for testing purposes, given that nearly 20% of the previous batch had ‘jumped' to the left. The sight for the artillery piece was on the left, so there was no way to reasonably fire it without being at risk of bodily harm.

FAULTY EQUIPMENT DEATH COVERED UP: DEATH CERTIFICATE FORGED
It was clear that Rumsfeld already knew about the first death; for he had signed a previous memo ordering people not to talk about it. In addition, he had taken steps to ensure that the first death was not properly investigated. I had been told by a Pentagon official who overheard it that Donald Rumsfeld had told a member of his staff to list the death as an ‘Off-Duty’ death. The official was one of the three I sent in the afternoon to give his statement. Further proof of that reality was that the form was signed by a member of Rumsfeld's office. Normally, that form should have been signed by the dead soldier's Commanding Officer. Rumsfeld had the power to override that long-established standard operating procedure, but his staffer signing that form did not.

Since that form should have been signed by a Commanding Officer and the staffer was not one,
it appeared that Mr Rumsfeld did not sign it, in order to avoid having his name attached to that
blatant lie. When I checked the Death Certificate, it listed the cause of death as MVA (for Motor
Vehicle Accident). Yet, many military officers had been at the test and in the record of the test
they had written that this man had been crushed under the artillery piece. It also recorded that
he had been sent to the hospital. I verified that the hospital received him from the ambulance
shortly after the test and that he died at the hospital soon thereafter.

The Death Certificate appeared to be a forgery or faked as it was dated two days after the hospital records showed that he died. Also I could not find a physician by the name of the signatory of the death certificate at that hospital. There was a physician by that name in the United States; he only worked inside the Pentagon. He was the physician who attended Rumsfeld whenever he was sick inside the Pentagon, but not when he was outside the Pentagon. The man who died was stationed on a base in another state: if I remember correctly, in Maryland at Edgewood Arsenal.

There was no record of his ever being inside the Pentagon: so the Death Certificate thus appeared to have been signed at the Pentagon with that cause of death per Donald Rumsfeld's orders. That evidence strongly suggested that Rumsfeld tried to cover up the death of the first man as having been due to that artillery piece's defects... The artillery piece was manufactured by a Saudi Arabian company with close business ties to the Bush Family.

DEFECTIVE FOREIGN EQUIPMENT AND FOREIGN PENETRATION FOR PROFIT
The Saudi Arabian company were having financial trouble because they could not find a market for their products. Their products had a bad reputation in the Defense Industry. A video clip I watched at the CIA which showed their table set up at an outdoor Defense Contractor's Weapon Expo held in Saudi Arabia, showed that people purposely avoided stopping to look at their table. It was not a subtle finding. The table next to theirs was doing a brisk business. I allege that Rumsfeld knew the poor reputation of this company when he placed the order for about 1000 more of these defective artillery pieces. The Pentagon keeps lists of its preferred companies, and of companies to avoid purchasing from. That company was on the Pentagon's list to avoid. Rumsfeld had to sign a 'waiver' in order to make that purchase of the artillery that killed that second man. That, in my opinion, was criminal negligence. And it was criminal negligence in which he personally took a kickback.

TENET WAS NOT INTERESTED IN THE NATIONAL SECURITY IMPLICATIONS
As to the laptop case, the company making it was Japanese. The case is quite troubling in light of the violation of US national security. Mr Rumsfeld, by not investigating and prosecuting corruption cases, left the Pentagon open to any agent of a foreign power with money in their pocket. Thus his actions which disabled US national security in practice had both active and passive components....

I did brief my boss, DCI Tenet, on my findings above after I had determined their national security implications. He showed no great interest in my presentation and rushed off in the middle of it.

He declined my invitation to reschedule that briefing twice. It was clear that he had no intention of seriously trying to correct the problems, even as they related to the foreign penetration issues at the Pentagon.

1000 TOASTERS COSTING $19.95 SOLD TO PENTAGON BY HALLIBURTON FOR $1,891 EACH
The former high-level veteran CIA aide to Tenet now related a detailed investigation into a batch of toasters (yes, those breakfast slot machines that toast bread) which were stolen from a warehouse in Indiana by operatives employed by a Halliburton subsidiary who were dressed up as FBI agents, which Halliburton sold to the Pentagon for $1,891 each.

In the course of this investigation, the officer discovered that goods ordered were not examined physically, but that corrupt ordering was routinely conducted exclusively on the basis of fabricated, computerised paperwork. In other words, no-one checked the actual item purchased: they only handled the paperwork. When challenged in respect of this very low-value toaster, Halliburton personnel started inventing alibis to the effect that the toasters were manufactured from titanium and other special materials, which accounted for their high cost.

The Halliburton-generated list of component parts for these toasters exceeded 200, whereas when the investigator had one of the units deconstructed, it was found to consist of 14 separate tawdry sub-components. This particular corruption investigation became so complex that at one stage it interfered materially with an investigation that the officer was conducting into a mole working for an unfriendly government who was carrying documents out of the Langley front door every day.

When the veteran CIA officer informed Tenet that the investigation into Halliburton’s fabrications over the toasters was affecting national security because the urgent necessity of preventing the mole from stealing more documents was being frustrated daily, he expressed little interest, being preoccupied only with covering up the Cheney-directed corruption.

THE MOLE CASE THAT WAS LESS IMPORTANT THAN THE TOASTER COVER-UP
We now move to the section of this report which demonstrates that US national security has been directly and maliciously compromised as a specific consequence of this corruption, controlled by Unterreichsführer Cheney. At the time of this posting, it is reported to us that Cheney remains in detention, but it is not known for what he may be being held, in addition to his serial corruption in blocking the Settlements. But given that the Editor of this service has been able to publicise this information, which was sent to him on 25th May, it is hoped that any intention that may be floated to release him following the Settlements, or to allow him to resume his post, is squelched purely on the basis of these allegations. Consider the extreme gravity of what now follows.

[The former CIA top-flight aide to Tenet had been devoting a huge amount of time to investigating, and proving out, the ongoing fabrication of invoices and related documentation on a massive scale in general, and the ludicrous toaster scandal in particular, when the extreme, immediate urgency of investigating the mole (who turned out to be a Halliburton employee, protected by Mr Cheney: see below) was known at the highest level (i.e. by Tenet himself): and yet this DCI was preoccupied with the necessity of covering up internal corruption controlled by the Cheney and Rumsfeld gang, and condoned by the FBI and the Justice Department when the United States’ national security was being severely compromised not least because, knowing about all this corruption, the Russians had no difficulty in blackmailing Halliburton employees for their own espionage purposes]:

Now I want to talk more about the mole problem as it is very relevant to this case. A mole is a person inside an agency who is acting as a traitor to give secrets to a foreign power. The motives can vary and include bribes or blackmail. The CIA knew that it had a mole because it knew that the
Russian Embassy in Washington D.C. had recorded the news of just-delivered CIA documents.

I had been assigned by Tenet to investigate who that mole was, starting just before I was handed
the Halliburton factory problem by 'HallCIA' [an investigation connected with the issue of ‘phantom factories’, a favourite Halliburton scam: not covered here]. I was then required by Tenet to keep working on the Halliburton problem until it was finished at about 2 pm. Then I was exhausted and went home to sleep. The next day I procured that the FBI with a warrant would raid a flat looking for CIA documents. I was present at the raid and we recovered the CIA specifications for the CIA's communication satellite that NASA had just launched into orbit. That included the security codes for the encryption algorithms which were set at the time of launch.

The launch took place in the morning after the FBI DID NOT arrest 'HallCIA' [the CIA veteran's codename for the Halliburton suspect: Ed.] while I was still forced to work on Halliburton’s book cooking project. Those security codes meant that someone could change from the ground the
encryption codes to their own codes and then listen in to everything the CIA said to its stations overseas. In essence, it was like inserting a huge bug into the CIA and all of its stations. It was an
extremely serious violation of US national security, one of the most serious in the history of the
CIA, had it not been caught. It was later verified that although the documents were recovered, the mole had already faxed those security codes directly to Moscow soon after the launch.

MOLE WAS AN UNVETTED HALLIBURTON EMPLOYEE: FAXED SATELLITE CODES TO MOSCOW
The mole was a Halliburton employee who had never been vetted by the CIA. The Russians had approached him and offered him money. In addition they had offered not to expose his criminal background [which they knew all about: Ed.]. He was clearly a prime candidate for blackmail by the
Russians; keeping his job meant having to hide his felony conviction [see above: Ed.].The CIA had not run a criminal background check on all of these Halliburton employees: but, of course, the Russians had. The CIA has rules that prevent it from hiring drug-takers for the same reason; they are much too high a blackmail risk, and thus a mole risk. Since the CIA never vetted the Halliburton people, they never even asked them if they took drugs under a lie detector test like they normally do. And the CIA never even did drug tests on the Halliburton people.

CHENEY PROTECTS MOLE WHO SOLD THE SATELLITE'S CODES TO MOSCOW
When I showed Tenet the documents that I recovered from that Halliburton operative's flat he was shocked. He immediately called the Director of the FBI and thanked him for his help in recovering
them. I asked Tenet to ask the FBI Director to arrest the Halliburton traitor. Tenet sent me out of the room to discuss it. He called Mr Cheney. Cheney told him no, that man was his friend and that they could never arrest him. The phone was on speaker and I heard everything. I cried for my country that it had been taken over by crooks who were traitors as well. I could not stand to stay in such a corrupt institution and under such a grossly corrupt government. That was the moment in 2002 that I decided to leave my country [the veteran CIA operative fled to Canada]. After the CIA knew that its new satellite's security codes had been stolen, it had to figure out what to do now. It decided that it could not use that satellite because its security had been too compromised. That satellite cost the US taxpayers over $3.6 billion dollars. It sits in orbit unused.

The man responsible for that was the man I called on these pages 'HallCIA'. I have not used his real name because Cheney threatened to kill me himself if I ever mentioned his name or the names of his partners in crime. [This threat was later supplemented by a further direct threat by Cheney to kill the officer personally, recorded at the end of this report. It is interesting that Cheney appears to have been in the habit of threatening to kill his 'enemies' personally, suggesting that this may not be a new experience for this sinister character: Ed.].

Editor: The grim summary just given above reveals that the presence inside both the CIA and the Pentagon of a Halliburton suite of offices is not just a gross breach of US national security per se, but has actually been associated with a penetration and security breach of the gravest proportions, and that Vice President Cheney, informed of this scandal, refused to allow the arrest of the mole and has presided over this quite unprecedented degradation of US security. He is therefore a traitor to the United States on the basis of that one case alone. What more evidence is needed?

'DETENTIONS' MUST BE FOLLOWED BY IMPEACHMENT: NO MORE PREVARICATION
Not only, therefore, have we been justified in stating that the US Government is run by criminals, but we can now state that there is every indication that these criminals are directly associated with the gravest possible breaches of US national security, which clearly mandates that they should be processed for treason IMMEDIATELY. If Mr Cheney has been or is being held in the context of the Settlements, treason should be added to his charge sheet anyway. Under no circumstances should this man ever be released. Furthermore, his boss should be taken into custody without further ado.

It's no use fretting about whether the Republic can stand such an upheaval as would ensue from pursuing such a course. The United States is robust and very mature. Now that these exposures are 'happening', the time has passed for inaction, or brushing these inconvenient realities under the carpet. The 'failure to confront' can no longer be excused or condoned.

And remember: we have suggested that what is being revealed here cannot represent more than 1% of what will flood out 'in the wash'. The Editor recalls the operative, 'working for' Bush Sr., who said: 'None of this must ever come out, you understand'. Sure, we understood.

The stench of corruption has spread around the world and is especially pongy in Whitehall, which is why the Editor would like to see some 'real consequences' in the United States.

Complacent, corrupt Whitehall bureaucrats might then start to get the message, too.

But it gets much worse...

THE HALLIBURTON DRUG THUG AND THE STOLEN FEDERAL SALARIES SCAM
The former top CIA aide to Tenet and 30-year CIA veteran now reveals the criminal background of 'HallCIA', the thug who yanked the officer’s phone from the wall, ransacked the CIA operative’s office, had the officer incarcerated in Halliburton’s own cell in the basement of CIA headquarters and on a separate occasion punched holes in the officer’s office wall, displayed episodes of extreme violence and was observed by many to be high on drugs. He was also a murderer....

This was the criminal whom Cheney asserted to be a friend who could never be arrested. This description leads into a summary of another scam, whereby multiple salaries are paid into corrupt Halliburton employees’ secret Swiss bank accounts:

'HallCIA' and the Head Programmer were moved back to Halliburton's main office, just like the priests sexually abusing children are moved to a different parish.
They were never prosecuted...

[Dressed in FBI uniform provided by Halliburton, the operative is engaged in an FBI action to arrest this Halliburton thug], He was arrested for FIRST DEGREE MURDER OF AN FBI OFFICER. I had proof that the FBI officer that he had murdered was a bona fide one with proper papers and vetting in the FBI’s personnel archives. The FBI had fingerprint and DNA evidence to prove that the Halliburton programmer was the murderer.

They even had a trial and a conviction of the man for that murder.

He had feigned a fainting episode right before the reading of the sentence and been taken to a hospital. He then assaulted the hospital guard inside his room and left him unconscious in his bed. Then he impersonated the guard using his uniform. He later went to a lawyer who put in a motion to declare the trial a mistrial on the grounds of a technicality: the defendant had not been present at the reading of the sentence. The fact that the criminal had committed a second nearly deadly assault the same day in apparent good health, was omitted from that motion.

The FBI-clandestine CIA raid that I organized was on the private flat of 'HallCIA'. It was not at his house where he lived with a prostitute whom he pimped, according to a CIA file. He did not keep his contraband items there as there were too many unsavory people coming through his house.

WHAT THE FBI FOUND IN THE CIA-HALLIBURTON DRUG THUG'S APARTMENT
At the flat the FBI confiscated drugs in pusher quantities and also illegal weapons, including some unregistered machine guns, explosives and hand-held artillery that could blow big holes through a wall for illegal entry. He had one bedroom devoted just to weapons, with shelves devoted to about half-kilo packages of drugs. It was equipped with a padlock. CIA top secret documents were strewn all over the bed, dresser and floor of the master bedroom.

It looked like a hurricane had hit the bedroom even before we arrived. The padlock was broken on the door to the weapons and drug room and the door was open when we arrived. But all the drugs were still neatly on the shelves. The flat may have been raided by Russian intelligence before we arrived, leaving the CIA documents behind as cover-up after copying them.

The FBI collected fingerprints and I collected the CIA documents. After the raid I returned to the FBI station and filled in the appropriate forms to write a FBI report up on the raid. As I was doing so, the two FBI officers who I had spoken with two days before walked by the desk I was using. They did a double take seeing me in the FBI uniform.... I told them that I had just tested FBI vetting and security procedures for a report I was writing for the CIA. I also explained to them that I had just successfully impersonated an FBI official to the extent of going on a raid with them, and not one had yet asked for my name or run it through a background check. I showed them the CIA top-secret documents the raid had netted and they laughed at the ruse I had played on the FBI.

They were not laughing, however, when I explained how I had gotten that FBI uniform and signed the papers. They checked on their computers; I was not yet registered on the records of the FBI.

I asked them to arrest all of the appropriate Halliburton people involved in that scam. They called
the Director of the FBI and I also spoke to him. He refused to authorize the arrests.

He told me: ‘Write up your report and let me read it first'. I offered to drive over immediately with
the evidence. He refused to make any time to see me. I immediately faxed him a short report and enough evidence to warrant the arrests. Nothing happened.

MULTIPLE SALARIES PAID INTO SWISS BANK ACCOUNTS
But the next day when the local FBI checked my name again, they called me to let me know that I was officially part of the FBI now per their computer. I promptly sent in a full report to the FBI, the CIA, and the Pentagon on this scam to sign up Halliburton employees as their officers and have the US taxpayer pay their salaries. Just like Halliburton over-billed, some Halliburton employees were
collecting THREE US Government salaries; one from the Pentagon, one from the FBI, and one from the CIA. I wrote in my report that I had signed up in all three places via Halliburton’s scam to see
how long it would be before those scams were stopped.

I put on the three forms, separate Swiss bank accounts. The point was to use the accounts as evidence of Halliburton corruption when those cases came to trial; I have not touched a cent of that money. The Directors of the FBI, the CIA, and the Chief of the JCS that I sent those reports to did not implement my list of recommendations; one of them was to shut down all of those public salaries going to Halliburton employees. At least, they had not been implemented as of about Summer 2004 when I last checked those accounts.

Another recommendation was to make sure that everyone in those agencies is properly vetted and drug tested as per that agency’s usual security measures. Because I was concerned that my clear recommendations would not be acted upon, I despatched copies of those letters, the forms that I had signed, and the numbers of the Swiss bank accounts to the GAO. In my covering letter to the GAO I told them that I had given them the authority to check the balances in those accounts by written authorization to the Swiss bank.

I had hoped that seeing US taxpayer’s money streaming into those accounts would give them an
incentive to prosecute those cases promptly. Since the banks were not in the United States, I doubt that coercion applied to the bankers will erase those accounts, but I could be wrong. Since I had long been a covert CIA person, those communications with officials and the banks were under
aliases. The GAO however has all of the proper information to check those accounts again and to
prosecute these cases. I myself no longer remember any of the aliases and account numbers, so I
couldn’t access that money even if I wanted to. I never intended to use that money at all, so I did not record those aliases and numbers into my personal effects.

In 2004 when I checked the accounts, I did so from within the CIA by pulling up the report that I had written to the DCI. I have no way to check those accounts now so I do not know whether that scam, as evidenced by a single person’s accounts, has been stopped. When I checked in 2004, two years had already passed. The US taxpayer had paid [as follows]: via the CIA, about $80,000.00 each year, for a total of about $160,000.00; via the FBI, about $50,000.00 each year, for a total of $100,000.00; and via the Pentagon, about $80,000.00 each year for a total of about $160,000.00, or roughly $420,000.00 total into those three Swiss accounts...

I also checked on whether Halliburton continued paying those employees if it signed them up for a Federal salary. The answer was no, except for rare exceptions. 'HallCIA' had continued receiving a
Halliburton salary while getting one at the CIA, but the Head Programmer had not.

When I checked in 2004 the number of Halliburton employees getting a CIA salary was over 200, the number receiving an FBI salary was over 400, and the number of Halliburton employees receiving a Pentagon salary, was over 300. Suppose that the total for that is about 1,000 salaries each at, say, $50,000 a year. That would mean that the US taxpayer was being bilked (by Cheney) of $50 million a year of fraudulent salaries. Over the eight years that this Cheney has been in the Vice President’s office, that could easily add up to $400 million in savings for Halliburton in not having had to to pay salaries. No wonder it was so easy to get that FBI uniform and salary sent out to me by talking to a Halliburton VP. Other Halliburton programmers had complained to me that they took a ‘cut in pay’ to work at the CIA location. They said that ‘the takings are good’, and ‘Halliburton fences the items for us in a 50-50 split’.

HALLIBURTON’S THIEVES INSIDE THE CIA AND THE INEVITABLE CONSEQEUENCES
When I heard that Halliburton’s people were stealing from inside the halls of the CIA, loud alarm
bells went off inside my head. The items inside the CIA which were easiest to carry out were of course its documents.

And any computer that one stole inside the CIA was likely to have top-secret information on it, in spades. It was a counterintelligence person’s nightmare, and now it was mine. The fact that the Head of the Halliburton section offices at the CIA had just sold the CIA’s communication satellite encryption security codes to Moscow burned in my mind.

The Russians had paid him $20,000 for that betrayal.

He had no clue as to their black market value. It made me worry that the Russians and the Chinese could buy every secret inside the CIA for a price that they could afford. More than one Halliburton person inside the CIA had admitted to me that they were stealing to make up for their cut in pay. Halliburton had switched them to Federal salaries, making the CIA pick up the tab [see above].

One Halliburton person at the CIA had told me that they were all stealing enough to make up for that cut in pay. [They were ONLY in it for the money: taking their cue from Cheney and Bush: Ed].

Therefore, the first thing I did was to find out what those 40-odd people used to earn at Halliburton. I had the CIA’s accounting office print out for me what the CIA was now paying them. My mouth then dropped open in shock. Each one of them would have to steal over $10,000 worth of CIA secrets or goods a year to break even. In some cases the cut in pay was much higher. One man took a $50,000 a year cut in pay when he switched to the Federal salary. At the average $23,000 cut in pay, the 40 workers together had sustained a $920,000 cut in pay. I had been told that Halliburton was fencing the goods in a 50%-50% split. So, about 2 million dollars’ worth of good at black market prices would be stolen from the CIA, if they actually made up their lost salaries stealing.

[There followed a summary of the notorious Aldrich Ames, Clyde Conrad, Larry Wu-Tai Chin, John Anthony Walker, and Robert Hanssen espionage cases, omitted here]

On February 22, 1994, Ames and his wife were formally charged by the United States Department of Justice with spying for the Soviet Union and Russia. Mr Ames could have faced the death penalty, since his betrayal had resulted in CIA ‘assets’ being killed. However, he received a sentence of life imprisonment, and his wife received only a five-year prison sentence for her conspiracy to commit espionage and tax evasion as part of a plea bargain by Ames.

TENET AND CHENEY REFUSED TO ADDRESS THESE ISSUES
I walked down to the office a very high-ranking CIA analyst, about third in the hierarchy in that department, a man I trusted. People advance inside the CIA by one of two means normally, being very good at what they do or being very good at lying to please those above them. The heads of each section were often in the latter category, as a general rule. I asked him how many secrets the Russians could buy for $2 million a year, if they had 40 moles able to walk the halls of the CIA. In the posing of the question I explained that the hypothetical moles would be assumed to be 'efficient' criminals without formal espionage training. I asked him what effect that would have on national security. He asked me if this was a conversational gambit or a request for a formal report to answer my question. I thought about it a moment and then said the latter.

That meant that I had to go get a signature on a form. By submitting to Mr Tenet new requests for 10 separate reports on a wide variety of important topics, I quickly brought the analyst the signed form that he needed. He whistled in surprise when he reviewed the assignment given to him there in black and white. Then he asked me 'Is this about the Privatized Employees’ invasion of the CIA?' I said yes. He said: ‘I have been urging Tenet to let us study that risk for months. No go. How did you get this when I couldn’t?'

I explained to him my method and also that the Head of the Halliburton group had just sold the CIA’s Communication Satellite Encryption Security Codes to the Russians.

He hadn’t heard that [because] Tenet had put a lid on it even within the CIA. I promised to show him the proof. I came back and gave him and a few of his top staff an hour long briefing on what I had learned. One man was actually in tears as I finished.

Another said: ‘This marks the end of US national security’. Another said, “No. US honor died already and no memo was sent announcing its funeral’.

I asked them what information they needed to make a proper assessment. They said that it would help them if I could find out how much the 40 people were actually making off their thefts inside the CIA, and a list of what they were stealing. I came back the next day with the list of how much each one had been paid by Halliburton in ‘bonuses’, which was the code word for fenced items, and what each ‘bonus’ was for. That list of what each bonus was for was like what the programmers really did in morphing an appliance rack into a bread slice rack. It was not a specifically accurate description but it related to the item in a fairly straightforward way.

CHENEY WAS INFORMED IN A RECORDED PHONE CALL
I showed the list to Tenet and tried to brief him on how dangerous it was.

He did not want to hear. Tenet had not followed my recommendations, which would have stopped the thefts. And he did not want further reasons why he should do so... I called Cheney and begged him to send a memo over to Halliburton setting up a program to [address these extremely serious issues]. I even faxed him a memo so that all he had to do was sign to get that to happen.. He did not deny that Halliburton was selling items stolen from the CIA. He did not deny that he had the power to impose the necessary changes at Halliburton by sending the memo. He did not deny that he had the power to order Tenet to institute effective measures to stem the tide of the thefts.

As the phone recording of that call shows, I kept briefing him on the problem while he kept saying that he refused to discuss the matter with me.

I sent a copy of that call over to the GAO because it showed that I had in fact managed to inform Vice President Cheney of the seriousness of the thefts. In that call [to Cheney] I cited that the likely
consequences were the shredding of US national security and the unnecessary deaths of its covert
personnel. I also set up a surveillance operation behind Cheney’s and Tenet’s back to actually inspect each item that Halliburton fenced from the CIA.

COUNTERINTELLIGENCE OPERATION AGAINST TENET AND CHENEY BACKFIRES
That is, I had an ex-CIA operative with counter-intelligence experience whom I trusted, apply to Halliburton. I instructed him to offer to 'help them fence their CIA goods and get higher prices for them'. Call him Alan for short. A Halliburton VP, the same one who sent me the FBI uniform, sent me a 'thank you' letter for referring Alan to them. He no doubt believed that I was corrupt and making a kickback. It was to my advantage to foster that image of myself without it actually being true. In my position it was best if everything I did could be interpreted as corrupt at the same time that I was collecting the evidence for prosecution.

That operative, Alan, ended up terribly overworked in no time. The analysts and I had been off by a factor of THREE in the amount that was routinely being stolen by Halliburton from the CIA.

We did not find that out until the Halliburton people realized that they could get more money by making sure that Alan sold the goods for them. That meant Alan had to sell them at on average much higher than twice what they could get for them themselves, even by selling directly to the Russians. That was not as hard as it would have been with regular stolen goods; the Halliburton people did not know their true worth on the black market... Alan could make a better profit selling a document to a rich government such as France, which would have been very bad in the hands of the poorer Chinese or Russians. Before that, Halliburton had sold mainly to the Russians. [Editor: Further allegation that Halliburton has sold CIA secrets to the Russians].

The French were very helpful to us in keeping many things out of the hands of the Russians.
They had wised up quickly as to our problem and how to assist us. The United Kingdom was less helpful because they could get that same information by merely filing a request for it. The French were not as tight into the CIA, though they were still US allies. We needed top dollar for the stolen
items because we had to make up for the fact that we were not selling off all of the items due to
their national security risk. We were hiding the fact from Halliburton’s management that we were really sending the items back to the CIA.

OVER 50% OF HALLIBURTON SALES BREACHED NATIONAL SECURITY
We could not send computers back, as it was impossible to ensure that the Russians etc. had not altered them in the meantime. Those had to be scrubbed clean using a special erasing procedure. But it was possible to send back documents. We had initially thought that it would be only 10% of the items that had to be vetoed on national security grounds. But as we got a better understanding of what was being sold via Halliburton, that figure went up to a little over 50%

[Editor: More damning allegations against Halliburton as a continuing threat to US national security, for which Cheney should be impeached, along with Bush Jr., who authorised this corruption via his Executive Orders].

[The high-level operative and source for this information left the CIA for Canada in 2002].

Subsequently, operatives working inside the CIA to address this catastrophic situation] demanded that Tenet should lock the unvetted people out of the building.

In the process of showing how serious the security violations were, they revealed the oversight (or counterintelligence) operation against Tenet and Cheney themselves. That ended up revealing that they were recovering about 50% of the items and about 30% of their black market worth. Tenet informed Cheney of that fact, and Cheney ordered an end to the oversight.

I later sent copies of the relevant telephone calls revealing all this to the GAO. The Russians and Mossad had a complete set of White House calls, including of [calls concerning what was] for sale. The CIA also had a fairly complete set. When I was forced back into the CIA in Oct. 2003 from Canada with threats and worse, I heard about the troubles that the oversight people had suffered over the intervening 16 months. They had been unable to perform oversight for four months.

During that time Halliburton had fired their Private Eyes, the ex-CIA operatives that they had there. Instead, Halliburton had hired its own experts on Black Market Intelligence Pricing and had sold all of the stolen items without regard to US national security. I then despatched over to the GAO about a dozen phone conversations by Halliburton’s high officials demonstrating their reckless disregard for national security and the lives of covert operatives. [Therefore, this information is all available for the Congressional Committee to access immediately: Editor].

But it now gets much, much worse....

THEFTS OF CIA COMPUTERS LEADING TO AN UNIMAGINABLE CATASTROPHE
The next part of the narrative briefing leads into a description of the most ghastly consequences, for which Vice President Richard B. Cheney is clearly indicated by the narrative to be responsible, given his Luciferian greed for ‘profit’ which of course is on its own an impeachable offence:

It was only after a [hitherto unreported: Ed.] colossal national security catastrophe that the [CIA operatives who had carried on trying to get results] managed to get Tenet to insist that Halliburton rehire their ex-CIA ‘Private Eyes’. The oversight people briefed me on [the catastrophe] as soon as I returned. The first day I came back to the CIA’s Headquartersm they kept me up all night telling me about it. I cried many times that night for my country and the harm that had been done to her. I cried for the people who had died so brutally and unnecessarily.

Many, many more intelligence professionals lost their lives as a consequence of Cheney’s selling secrets than lost their lives because of the traitorous behaviour of Aldrich Ames. Ames is serving a life sentence for what he did. Cheney’s Halliburton people were still working at the CIA and stealing there because of Cheney’s protection of them. They were still walking inside the halls of the CIA every day and going into its offices to ‘have a chat’.

It was such an egregious violation of national security that some oversight members quit the CIA. Others said to me: ‘Why should we look like criminals who are enabling this theft’? ‘We are not making a cent off it... Yet we have been threatened by Tenet that we will be put in prison because we know of the thefts and hence must be guilty of them... We are being treated like criminals because we are trying to stop the most dangerous of these sales’.

[Editor: Gross abuse by Tenet of the Misprision of Felony Statute].

I later collected a memo from Cheney to Tenet which stated that the oversight of the sales by the CIA was cutting into profits and had to be stopped. It recommended imprisoning all of those in the CIA suspected of being a bottleneck in [the raking in of] US corporate profits. Tenet prohibited the oversight within a week of receiving that memo. The GAO has a copy of the memo and also of the memo that Tenet sent out threatening imprisonment if anyone was discovered to have decreased US corporate profits. They also have the later memorandum that Mr Tenet sent, which threatened imprisonment if anyone knew about stolen goods and did not report it to the designated official.

Those who had reported thefts to that official had been fired soon afterwards.

Thieves do not report stolen goods; people with integrity do, until it is clear that it is pointless and dangerous to do so. I also sent the GAO the document suggesting this ruse of a new designated official as a way to stop the oversight. That designated official never prosecuted a case of theft against a Halliburton person. He came from Halliburton! He had in fact been recommended for the job by 'HallCIA' to Cheney, who then recommended him for the job. I sent over to the GAO a tape of the phone conversation between 'HallCIA' and Cheney. On it. 'HallCIA' says that the man that he is recommending will stop the losses of revenues 'from our CIA sales'.

HALLIBURTON CROOK BRAGGED ABOUT LUCRATIVE SALE TO THE RUSSIANS
Later he bragged about one of his sales to Russia of ‘one of our CIA products’, and says, 'too bad we can’t make more of them’. It was clear that he was referring to the stolen goods that Halliburton stole from the CIA, not products that Halliburton made and sold to the CIA. The designated official was not vetted by the CIA. He was stealing from the CIA while working out of the Halliburton offices. I sent to the GAO a signed statement from a CIA security guard who caught him carrying a computer of the CIA’s out of the front door. That man could have employed the back door out of their offices manned only by Halliburton’s guards. He was so used to stealing from the CIA and getting away with it that he forgot, and used the front door.

That is what he told the guard: 'I forgot... Give me a hand and we’ll take it out the back door’. The Halliburton guards did just that. They helped the Halliburton thieves load CIA computers into their private cars. I sent the GAO several CIA security camera clips of that happening.

The CIA had massive amounts of security camera data showing that [activity]. The CIA security people were afraid to report the thefts that they saw, because they did not want to lose their jobs without it even cleaning up the problem. By the time I returned to the CIA, 16 people had lost their jobs due to reporting thefts to the designated official that Tenet’s memo had directed them to use. No one at the CIA knew about the item sold during the blackout that caused the national security catastrophe, until after the catastrophe happened. [Details of this national security catastrophe, unfortunately containing graphic and disturbing language, now follow].

THE CATASTROPHE, COURTESY OF THE CORRUPTION OF TENET, CHENEY AND BUSH
The first sign of that Catastrophe [with a capital C: Ed] was a dead body lying on a sidewalk in a foreign city. The body had been the teenage daughter of a CIA officer. The body was no longer recognizable, even by her father. The body was identified definitively by dental records. Her face had been peeled off in small strips. The forensic evidence revealed that she was still able to bleed and struggle during most of the time that was done to her.

The next sign of the Catastrophe was another unrecognizable body. This time, of a 6-year-old boy of a US diplomat. The injuries were the same. The CIA concluded that the murderer was the same man. The next sign was an 11-year-old child of a US school teacher in Africa. She was divorced and her husband had once worked for the US State Department. Perhaps he had been CIA under diplomatic cover, but the CIA refused to comment.

I saw the photographs of the dead bodies. They were too horrible for words. Could it be that I was recalled to the CIA against my will in order to get my special operational skills to track down the villain? The day I got back to the CIA, the first thing Tenet did was hand me these pictures and ask me to find The Killer. He had given me the pictures of 23 victims who had all died the same way. All of them were children of people who could have been in the CIA. About 22 of them did have a known parent or guardian in the CIA.

DEATHS DUE TO THE STEALING OF A CIA COMPUTER
What he failed to tell me, or give me the photos for, for was the over 100 adults that had been killed using the exact same modus operandi. One of them was in the CIA’s morgue at that moment [Editor: did you know that the CIA has its own morgue? I didn’t]. ..The item that was stolen from the CIA that was responsible for those deaths was a computer. That computer had not gone through the hands
of one of the ex-CIA operatives. Its contents not been thoroughly erased.

It took work and time to do that; the disc had to be erased and written over 50 times. Halliburton’s bosses did not care about national security or the risk to the CIA's covert operatives, if they were exposed... I was able to prove that it was the same computer. It still had the CIA’s personnel files on it and many of the victims had been selectively deleted from where they should have been in that list. When I then compared that file to the CIA's current personnel file, the comparison program marked those deletions in red. The selective deletions showed that the owner of the computer was getting tipped off by someone high up in the investigation of the deaths inside the CIA.

The US Administration managed to suppress the news of these murders almost completely, after its ties to the computer started showing up in the CIA’s internal investigations. No-one in the media had connected the isolated cases across the globe [another gross failure by the incompetent and controlled Fourth Estate: Ed.].

The motivation of the deletions was obviously to try to cover-up the guilt of the owner’s role in those murders. There were about 86 deletions in a file of thousands of names. Each deletion was a victim, as already known by the CIA up to a certain date about two weeks earlier.

ENTER THE 'DARK LORDS': DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO BUSH
No victim that the CIA had on its investigation list by that point had failed to be deleted on that stolen computer. The odds of that happening by chance alone was practically speaking, exactly zero. In addition, I later obtained evidence that firmly tied the secondary ownership of that same computer to those who committed the actual tortures and murders. There was many more than one murderer. What they had in common was membership in a kind of paramilitary, quasi-religious cult. The members of that paramilitary cult had a group commitment to kill a person once a month. The Mafia usually only requires its members to kill once to get into it. This satanic group required their members to kill once a month in order to remain in good standing in it.

[Note: the Editor of this service received, between February and mid-May 2008, a large number of evil, unsolicited phone calls from a contrived, deep demonic ‘voice’ referencing ‘the Great Dark Lords’. This harassment continued until shortly after we reported the matter to the head of the US Anti-Terrorism Task Force and also, separately, to law enforcement personnel in contact with the Editor’s own contacts, whereupon they ceased. We have voice recordings of almost all these calls.

Considered in the context of what follows, it would appear that these calls represented threats: one of these was quite specific, along the lines of ‘we have the means of dealing with you'. Given the appearance of the ‘Dark Lords’ in this ‘Cheney’ context, it is likely that the Unterreichsführer’s apparat will indeed, as we suspected, have been responsible for these multiple telephone threats and harassment calls.

It comes as NO SURPRISE whatsoever to the Editor that the veteran CIA investigator came across this ‘Black’ dimension. The harassment calls to the Editor were also interspersed with threatening emails. The content of one of these, containing a very grave threat, was conveyed immediately as referenced above, with the consequence that (at the date of this posting) the harassment ceased].

A Manual on how to ‘please the Lord of Darkness’ had been published by a member of that cult. It recommended that the best way to do it was to torture people to death using the modus operandi that I have indicated above. That Manual had been distributed by the owner of the aforementioned computer with that CIA Personnel file suggested as the targets. The man who bought the computer was indeed a paramilitary type, with a large collection of weapons, many of them unregistered... He was identified as a fundraiser for Bush.

The literature of the group showed upside-down crosses as an emblem [satanic symbolism: Ed.]. The reason that others in the CIA had not tracked him down and had failed to pin the instigating of the murders on him, was political. Like 'HallCIA', and the Head Programmer from our earlier cases, he was well protected. It was not that CIA investigators had not suspected him. It was that they did not know what to do with their suspicions and even their evidence after they got it.

I was the booby prize winner: the fool at the CIA who had before been willing to buck the silence at great risk to myself. There was precedence for giving me a job like this. At one point, a CIA officer had sold a list of MI6 officers to the KGB during the Cold War. The KBG had started killing them off. I was given the job to stop them from continuing. And they had stopped: whether or not it was due to my efforts, was a matter of hot debate within the CIA. But some people credited me with having had some influence in the matter.

The individual who bought that computer was apparently a friend of Cheney and Bush; they had invited him to the White House. They had been present when he picked it out among a number of other CIA stolen computers, paying cash, which Cheney had put in his pocket.

‘CHENEY & BUSH TOOK THE MONEY FOR THE COMPUTERS USED FOR THE MURDERS’
I found the White House Security camera footage of that event. The GAO has a copy of it. The payment is shown on the video. The man took hundred dollar bill(s) out of his pocket and handed that to Bush. Bush hesitated and then handed the money to Cheney. The footage of that computer being carried out of the room by a guard follows about 20 minutes later. The room had about 20 computers from the CIA in it, to start with. [They were all neatly laid out, as at a sales demonstration, for buyers to examine, test, select, and pay for: only cash was accepted: Ed.].

The security camera tape shows Bush Jt. and Mr Cheney repeatedly coming into the room with a prospective buyer and taking cash in varying amounts. That continued until all the computers were gone. Some prospective buyers remained in the room for over an hour exploring the contents of the stolen CIA computers, before deciding on a purchase. I checked with the CIA and found that no CIA vetting of those buyers had occurred. Most did not have security clearances. Some of them had prior felony convictions and had been allowed into the White House ‘on orders from above’. The sale was ‘by invitation only’, with Bush and Cheney controlling the invitation list.

The earlier tape shows Cheney directing Halliburton employees in where to set the computers up. Much care and time was taken to plug them in and connect them to monitors, mice, keyboards, and to arrange the room nicely with a mouse pad under each mouse. The GAO has a copy of that tape too. The manual on how to torture people (in the manner described) and the file of CIA Personnel was sent overseas and domestically through the mail whenever a buyer purchased a snuff film from that man. His poorly kept records showed that he had mailed out at least 2,000 such CDs with the Manual on 'how to please the Lords of Darkness', and file on them.

His records omitted the addresses that he sent them to in about 50% of the cases where he marked payment received and product and ‘How-to’ sent. Thirty of the murders had been solved already by local foreign authorities by the time I was given the case. Of those, the How-to CD was found in 28 of them. Presumably it had been overlooked in the other two, or the wrong party may have been charged, or the How-to thrown out by the criminal.

Unfortunately, the murders had continued after those arrests.

BUSH AND CHENEY RESPONSIBLE FOR 168 CIA DEATHS, COVERED UP (HITHERTO)
At least 168 CIA officers and their family members were brutally tortured to death as a direct result of this cynical corruption run by Bush and Cheney. The CIA [systematically] covered it all up and pretended that it never happened on Tenet’s orders. The notorious traitor Aldrich Ames had not
sent out instructions to torture and kill anyone. He had sold ONE copy of a list of CIA operatives
in one country to one buyer. He is languishing in prison for life.

[The perpetrator identified here] sent out over 2,000 copies of all the names and addresses of the CIA officers and their families in every country. He had sent them out with hate propaganda and incited others to kill them. He had sent this [Nazi filth] to people who were known murderers who had a commitment to kill again. And he had sent it out as a challenge: are you man enough to kill a CIA person? His group offered ‘Advanced Membership Privileges’ to anyone who succeeded.

It was very curious that someone close and high up in the investigations at the CIA was tipping him off, since he was targeting CIA officers. I was able to supply the GAO with the evidence as to who was doing it. This person was getting calls and faxes directly from Cheney and Tenet. Tenet’s faxes included the names of the victims to date. He was being assisted in his cover-up at a very high level. I investigated whether the Russians or another foreign group had put him up to this, as his methods seemed too effective to be that of an individual’ alone.

HALLIBURTON LINKED TO THESE MURDERS OF CIA PERSONNEL
I found no such evidence of a foreign government or its operatives being behind it [but] I found many ties to US underworld organizations. Most of the ties, however, were directly to Halliburton. According to Halliburton’s records which I sent the GAO, [the perpetrator of these incitements to murder CIA personnel] had headed one of their subsidiaries before it went bankrupt.

CIA INVESTIGATOR TOLD TO 'BACK OFF, OR ELSE'
When I looked up that old company I did not find a building on the aerial to correspond to the address. That subsidiary had been selling intelligence and paramilitary gear. It had specialized in recruiting mercenaries worldwide. It made me wonder if those killing the CIA had done so, as a kind of recruitment test; those getting away with it and being able to prove it, getting the job. I started looking into whether he was on Halliburton’s books as CEO of a new subsidiary. Just as soon as I started that investigation, Cheney called and told me to ‘back off or else’.

I asked him what the ‘else’ referred to, because it certainly sounded like a death threat to me. He hung up on me. Then he called me back about 10 minutes later and offered to set up a face-to-face meeting with that computer owner. I agreed and asked at once for a time and a place. He hung up: apparently his offer was just to threaten me that he would [impose] that man on me. I sent copies of those calls to the GAO also. They should still have them. The Halliburton mercenary recruiter [who incited the murders] was never prosecuted. Cheney and Bush would not allow it. The computers operative in when they were sold for cash for the benefit of Bush and Cheney at the White House.

BIO-FEEDBACK EQUIPMENT STOLEN BY HALLIBURTON FOR THE RUSSIANS
In about May 2002, a Halliburton person at the CIA had stolen an expensive piece of equipment.
It was an ultra-sophisticated CIA bio-feedback machine that was worth over $5 million.

It had required hundreds of millions of dollars of R & D money for the CIA to develop it. It was custom-made only for the CIA. Its only purpose was to train operatives how to pass a lie detector test. It was only used when they were to be sent on extremely dangerous missions to places like Russia. And it was only used in very critical missions.

There was a high risk that Russian intelligence would figure out how to overcome that training, if they interrogated about five operatives who had used it. That is, if they realised that those 5 had been trained in that fashion. Thus it was TOP SECRET and its manual was also top secret at the time. Loss of that machine and its Manual was the same as potentially losing every secret a given CIA official had in his or her mind when they were in Russia. The head of the CIA station in Russia had been trained on that machine for obvious reasons.

The effect of the training was to give the user control over their automatic nervous system. That meant that they could stop their fear, their sweating, their heart rate increase etc. in response to an interrogation. In addition to those obvious advantages in an interrogation situation, it had a big psychological benefit. It gave those who had used it confidence that they could pass a lie detector test. Thus, they were as if ‘bullet proofed' against threats and lie detector tests.

Although the signal-to-noise ratio relating to information obtained under torture is so low as to be unusable, that is not true in a ‘friendly’ interrogation. The British had admirably demonstrated the effectiveness of 'friendly interrogations' in WWII. An operative who had fear or fear of a lie detector test was more likely to ‘tell all’ in a ‘friendly interrogation’ because of underlying anxiety. I did not find out about that theft until the next day. I learned from a Halliburton person that it had been stolen and was en route to the Russian Embassy to be sold to them. I was absolutely horrified by the national security implications of that. I rushed up to Tenet’s office to tell him. He already knew.

Cheney had called him and asked him what it was and what it was worth to the Russians. This was after I had set up the system for things to go through Alan so that the oversight committee could intervene to stop the worst violations of national security.

But the thief was a personal friend of Cheney’s and had taken the item straight to the White House to ask him if he wanted to buy it. Cheney had paid him $50,000 for it, he informed me. The copy of the telephone call that I sent to the GAO between Tenet and Cheney showed that Mr Cheney had considered keeping it, so that he could pass lie detector tests.

CHENEY THREATENS TO KILL THE VETERAN CIA OPERATIVE PERSONALLY
They had discussed it and Tenet had promised to find out more about it, how it worked, and how much it was ‘worth outside of the CIA’. He had called him back and told him a figure of $1.2 million. Cheney asked him to find out what was his risk of needing the machine himself. Tenet called him back and said that CIA analysts judged his risk to be about 4%. In front of Tenet with his phone on
speaker, I called Cheney and demanded its return.

He laughed and said, ‘What’s the big deal? It can only be used 5 times total and it has already been used once. We should sell it while it still has value before those 5 times are up’. He had absolutely no understanding of intelligence matters. It was not 5 uses of the machine: it was 5 times a CIA person trained using that machine was interrogated by the Russians. It could be 20 years worth of use to prevent the loss of security codes, national secrets, and how a CIA station was operating.

I explained it all quite carefully as Cheney is not a technically minded person. I even asked him questions to make certain that he had understood what I said correctly [Editor: This interesting comment suggests that Cheney is actually not that bright, which may also be judged to be the case, given his behaviour over the Settlements and his repeated thefts of gigantic sums of money. It may be that he progressed to these much larger thefts after getting away with the lesser thefts of which examples have been given in this narrative]. Cheney then said: ‘Well, what difference does it make since there are remote viewers like you in Russia who can steal the secrets anyway?’

I then explained that remote viewers were not 100% accurate and that intelligence agencies always had to verify what they said using hard data. Lie detector tests are not 100% accurate either, but they add some signal-to-noise benefit. Mr Cheney replied that torture was generally worthless in getting information [Editor: Amazing! Was not Cheney reported to be adamant that torture MUST be used to extract intelligence from terrorists and from prisoners in US hell holes like Gantanamo and Abu Ghraib?]. That was true. But it was still wrong to sell the Russians the CIA’s very best and most advanced equipment to deter loss of information under interrogation. ‘Friendly interrogations’ do yield valid intelligence.

When I pointed that out, Cheney said that the machine had already been sold to the Russians and that I was too late. I told him that I would figure out some way of prosecuting him, if he ever did that again. He laughed and said, ‘You haven’t got a chance’. I told him that I would try.

Cheney then said: ‘I will kill you myself, if you ever get close to succeeding’.
