- When I saw arch leftists Barbara Boxer and Ted Kennedy
endorse Robert S. Mueller, President Bush s pick for FBI director to replace
Louis Freeh, with raving enthusiasm, the red flags went up in my mind.
So I did a background check on Mueller, and found a lot that conservatives
should be concerned about.. Mueller worked as US Attorney in Boston, a
center of dark side government operations in the Northeast. He was then
appointed by Janet Reno as US Attorney in San Francisco, the corruption
capital of the West Coast. The northern California judicial districts
at both the California state and federal levels are noted for extreme
collusion between police, prosecutors and judges. There has existed for
years a huge kickback system within the bankruptcy courts, systematically
looting millions of dollars and paying off lawyers and judges to accede
to the system. Notable cases have taken place in northern California where
people s full civil rights have been stripped away by courts and those
verdicts upheld without comment clear up the chain of appeals in Federal
Court. The bottom line is that Janet Reno never appointed a single US
Attorney that wasn t on her team of approved insiders.

- Mueller also served as head of the Justice Department's
Criminal Division under George Bush Sr. His administration there was notable
for the fact that he presided over some of the major cover-ups of government
dark side operations. Here are a few notorious examples:
-
-
- 1) He was responsible for the prosecution of Gen. Manuel
Noriega of Panama, who was the CIA s main money launderer for CIA operations
in Panama. Even Congress knew of Noriega s CIA connections. Senator Kerry
said that Noriega "had been on the payroll and an employee of the
CIA for many, many, many years" [quoted in Defrauding America, by
Rodney Stich, pg. 401]. Noriega was taken down by the CIA and prosecuted
because he was found to be taking a much larger cut out of CIA drug profits
than was agreed upon. During the trial, the presiding judge (on orders
from the government) ruled that Noriega could not enter into evidence
any documents proving his relationship to the CIA over the years. Mueller
helped cover up this major issue by silencing Noriega.

- 2) In 1988, Mueller supervised the investigation of PanAm
Flight 800 which was destroyed by a terrorist bomb over Lockerbie, Scotland.
He successfully kept the CIA s connection to the bombing from becoming
public. The CIA and FBI took control of the crash scene for the first
day (keeping Scottish police at bay), searching through and removing numerous
pieces of evidence and luggage from the wreckage to obscure the connections
of the bombing to the CIA special team that was on board the aircraft.
One CIA defector has said that the team had been returning to the states
against orders to blow the whistle on CIA drug and terrorist connections
in the Middle East.

- 3) Mueller was in charge of the infamous BCCI bank scandal
and prosecution. According to various CIA defectors, The Bank of Credit
and Commerce International was a wholly owned and operated CIA proprietary
bank set up with secret CIA funds in order to launder drug money and buy
off politicians. When the bank s connection to the government threatened
to become public, the CIA pulled out its funding and left the private
depositors with a $10 billion shortfall that the US taxpayers had to cover
for. Mueller took personal charge of the investigation and indicted six
lower echelon scapegoats specifically to shield the higher operators from
prosecution. Mueller never investigated the shady way in which BCCI got
initial approval to operate, or the stonewalling that occurred in the
federal bank regulatory mechanism that would otherwise have blown the
whistle on this operation much earlier.

- 4) Mueller presided over the prosecution of John Gotti,
the alleged Mafia head of the Gambino family group. There was a tie-in
here as well with government dark-side operations. CIA agent Richard Beneke,
in response to a question of whether or not the Gotti family had ties
to the CIA, testified, "Yes. As far back as 1968 and early 1969,
we [CIA] had begun to launder money from organized crime families in New
York. At that time, Mr. Gotti was an up and coming member of one of the
families. We used to wash their money out overseas and put it in Switzerland
in nice, safe places for them." [Defrauding America, pg. 404]. We
do not know why the government turned on Gotti as a partner in crime.
Perhaps he was also found guilty of skimming too much off the top.
-
-
- Conclusion: Robert Mueller is obviously cut from the
same mold as other shady appointees of President Bush (Richard Armitage,
C. Boyden Gray) left over from his father s administrations at the CIA
and the White House. It s time for conservatives to stop fooling themselves
about George W. s true allegiance. He works for the same power structure
his father worked for.
