CIA Involvement in Drug Smuggling Part 2

(...)

VANG PAO AND LAOS.

In Laos the CIA’s complicity in drug trafficking resulted from its alliance with the Hmong tribes who, since the 1950s, had been used by the French to fight Vietnamese leftists. As early as 1959, CIA operative Lucien Conein stated that eight teams were training Hmong tribesmen on the Plain of Jars. In 1960 the CIA began recruiting units to patrol the border with China and even to send Yao and Lahu tribesmen into Yunnan province to monitor traffic and to tap telephone lines. Operating out of Vientiane, the CIA also sent recruits to the patrol the Vietnam border as well as to send Green Beret commando units into North Vietnam to sabotage the Ho Chi Minh Trail.

By far the largest goal of the CIA was to wage its secret war against the Pathet Lao in northern Laos. From 1960 to 1974, the CIA maintained a secret army of approximately 30,000 tribesmen in the mountains of northern Laos. This originated with Vientiane CIA station chief Shackley and his Clines, his assistant.

The first mission of the CIA was to place a puppet in power. The CIA needed to forge alliances with tribes and warlords inhabiting the northern Laos. In order to maintain its relationship with the warlords while continuing to fund the struggle against nationalistic Marxist movements in Laos and North Vietnam, the CIA first had to choose a career military official. The agency decided upon a career military leader, Lieutenant Vang Pao. Next, the CIA used several tactics to gain respect and support among the Hmong. Immediately elevated to a general, Vang Pao’s power had to be solidified in order for him to gain political support among the tribesmen in Laos’ scattered villages.

First, the agency found a way for Vang Pao’s son and daughter to marry the children of Touby Lyfoung, a prominent and popular Hmong cabinet member. Second, the CIA usually chose a popular Hmong leader, with whom the agency could work, for every tribal area as its commander.

To gain support from the Hmong, the CIA supplied the tribesmen with rice. This enabled them to concentrate on growing the cash crop of opium. The Hmong relied on support from Air America for their rice supplies. Thus, the air power became the essential factor which allowed the CIA to keep Vang Pao in power. After Vang Pao was able to consolidate his power, the CIA helped him to sustain an army of 30,000 men from a tribe of only 250,000 people. The CIA relied on the villagers to supply the manpower to continue to replace the wounded and killed. By the early 1970s 30 percent of the Hmong recruits were 14 years old; another 30 percent were 15 and 16; and the remaining 40 percent were over 45.

In return for providing recruits, the Hmong opium growers received CIA support and their economy flourished. Also, Vang Pao’s control over the opium industry gave him more authority, especially when he needed to recruit young soldiers. Thus, the CIA relied on Vang Pao to supply soldiers in its secret war, and the CIA supplied his tribesmen with rice while opium was grown and frequently flown on CIA planes.

CIA operant Tony Poe was assigned as the chief adviser to Vang Pao and to supervise his secret army’s operations. Poe promised Hmong soldiers one dollar for a Pathet Lao’s ear and ten dollars for a severed head. On the one hand, Poe frequently refused to allow opium to be transported on Air American planes. On the other hand, he ignored the prospering heroin factories and never stopped any of Vang Pao’s officers from using American facilities to manage illicit drugs.

Another CIA operant, Edgar Buell, was assigned to the Plain of Jars where a large portion of the secret army was trained. Buell became in charge of dispatching Air America planes to drop rice and other necessities to the Hmong. In addition Buell used his expertise in agriculture to improve the Hmongs’ skills in the cultivation and production of opium.

While the United States was at its peak involvement in the Vietnam War, morphine base was being processed in the Golden Triangle and then exported to Hong Kong and Europe. In 1968 Shackley met in Saigon with Trafficante, Clines, and warlord Vang Pao, setting up a heroin smuggling ring to the United States. A Green Beret official speaking to Green Beret officers stated that “Shackley had been responsible for 250 political killings in Laos.”

None of the opium refineries mastered the technique to produce high-grade number four heroin which is 90 to 99 percent pure. By 1969 expert chemists from Hong Kong were imported into the Golden Triangle region, and they produced limited amounts of high grade heroin for tens of thousands of American GIs in South Vietnam. By 1970 the amount of heroin available to Americans was unlimited. The opium harvests were transported by Vang Pao’s officers and then flown on Air America UH-1H helicopters to processing plants in Vientiane and Long Tieng.

However, with the beginning of Nixon’s Vietnamization policy in the months to follow, the market for heroin drastically dropped. Then Chinese, Corsican, and American syndicates began sending large shipments of number four heroin directly to the United States. As a result of these massive exports to the United States, the wholesale price for a kilogram of number four heroin in the processing plants in the Golden Triangle actually increased by 44 percent — from $1,240 to $1,780 — in less than one year. At the same time, the price of raw opium in the villages jumped from $24 to $45 per kilogram. In 1970 the number of heroin addicts in the United States reached 750,000. More than a thousand tons of opium was being raised in the Golden Triangle.

By 1973, the United States was losing in Vietnam and in Laos as well. The CIA was forced to import approximately 20,000 Thai mercenaries in order to replenish the exhausted Hmong troops who could not provide additional recruits. That year, the Laotian government signed a truce with the Pathet Lao, ostensibly ending the CIA’s secret war. Slowly, the CIA abandoned over 300 landing strips and turned over its aircraft to the Laotian government. In 1974 on orders from the Laotian government, Air America abandoned its facilities. As Pathet Lao soldiers increased their presence in Laos, Vang Pao’s military and dwindled to 6,000 troops. Usually, Vang Pao retreated rather than to fight, and eventually the Pathet Lao marched into Vientiane. Vang Pao finally agreed to flee to Thailand, and the CIA provided transportation for him and his top officers.

Spymaster: My Life in the CIA
by Ted Shackley (Author) , Richard A. Finney (Contributor)

The death of CIA operative Theodore G. "Ted" Shackley in December 2002 triggered an avalanche of obituaries from all over the world, some of them condemnatory. Pundits used such expressions as "heroin trafficking," "training terrorists," "attempts to assassinate Castro," and "Mob connections." More specifically, they charged him with having played a major role in the Chilean military coup of 1973.

But who was the real Ted Shackley? In Spymaster, he has told the story of his entire remarkable career for the first time. With the assistance of fellow former CIA officer Richard A. Finney, he discusses the consequential posts he held in Berlin, Miami, Laos, Vietnam, and Washington, where he was intimately involved in some of the key intelligence operations of the Cold War. During his long career, Shackley ran part of the inter-agency program to overthrow Castro, was chief of station in Vientiane during the CIA's "secret war" against North Vietnam and the Pathet Lao, and was chief of station in Saigon. After his retirement, he remained a controversial figure. In the early eighties, he was falsely charged with complicity in the Iran-Contra scandal.

Ted Shackley's comments on CIA operations in Europe, Cuba, Chile, and Southeast Asia and on the life of a high-stakes spymaster will be the subject of intense scrutiny by all concerned with the fields of intelligence, foreign policy, and postwar U.S. history.

Au sujet de Ed Wilson ...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edwin_P._Wilson

(...) In the 1970s, he became involved in dealings with Libya. Wilson claims that a high ranking CIA official Theodore "Blond Ghost" Shackley asked him to go to Libya to keep an eye on Carlos the Jackal, the infamous terrorist, who was living there.[2] At the time, a strict sanctions regime was in place against Libya and the country was willing to pay a great deal for weapons and material. Wilson began conducting elaborate dealings and guns and military uniforms were smuggled into the country. Wilson also recruited a group of retired Green Berets – decorated Vietnam veteran Billy Waugh among them[5] – to go to Libya and train its military and intelligence officers. The Libyans used Wilson's provisions to advance their interests around the world, including training terrorist cells to build explosive devices inside radios. One cell trained by Wilson's operatives was the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine - General Command (PFLF-GC) under the command of Ahmad Jibril.[citation needed] Jibril was suspected of being behind the bombing of Pan Am 103 in Lockerbie, Scotland in 1988.[citation needed] In 1979, a gun that Wilson had arranged to be delivered to the Libyan embassy in Bonn was used to assassinate a prominent dissident. The next year, one of the Green Berets assassinated another dissident in Colorado. Wilson states that he regrets these incidents and had no prior knowledge of them. He states that he was still working for the CIA and his supplying of weapon to the Libyans was an attempt to get close to them and gain valuable intelligence.[6] (...)

Wilson's defence to the Libyan charges was that he was working at the behest of the CIA.

Armand Donnay was een gewezen Franse kolonel die in de jaren 70 en 80 van de 20e eeuw in Luik (België) woonde.

Hij was betrokken bij illegale wapenhandel en deed onder meer zaken met de gewezen CIA-officier Edwin Wilson. Wilson was jarenlang betrokken in illegale wapenhandel met Libië. Hij leverde het land zelfs 20 ton C-4-explosieven wat evenveel was als de gehele Amerikaanse voorraad. C-4-explosieven zijn berucht voor hun gebruik in terroristische bommen. In 1981 contacteerde Armand Donnay Wilson met het nieuws dat hij een interessant aanbod had voor de Libiërs: grondstoffen, uitrusting en technologie voor een kernwapen Wilson was zeer sceptisch, maar wilde de sprong toch wagen. Wilson en Donnay contacteerden enkele hogere Libische ambtenaren. Zij gingen in op de uitnodiging voor een gesprek. De twee stelden de Libiërs voor om een hele nucleaire infrastructuur te leveren: een onderzoeksreactor, hoogverrijkt uranium en plutonium en een heuse fabriek om kernkoppen te maken. De Libiërs hadden weinig nucleaire expertise maar dit doorzagen ze. Het was volgens hen onmogelijk dat die Amerikaan en Belg dat allemaal gingen leveren. Bovendien zaten er zware technische fouten in de documenten. Die atoombom zou nooit werken. De deal ging niet door. Armand Donnay werd kort nadien in België voor illegale wapenhandel aangehouden.

Un autre armurier et trafiquant d’armes est cité dans le livre 'Tous manipulés?': Ruy Mendez Franco.

Peut-être Ruy Franco (ou Franco Ruy) MENDEZ:

Lieutenant au 6e BCE, participe à la rébellion des mercenaires au Congo en 1967.

Parmi ses compagnons dans l'aventure se trouvaient notamment Bob DENARD, Jean SCHRAMME, Louis DESSY (?), Georges LAMMERS (?), Guy MOREAU (probablement le copain de VOGELEER en Thaïlande quelques années plus tard), ...etc.

A noter qu'un certain John PETERS du 5e cdo. sera arrêté en Thaïlande en 1975 et abattu dans des circonstances peu claires alors qu'il tentait de trafiquer de l'opium avec un Curtiss C-46. Cet avion fut aussi celui des Flying Tigers en Asie du Sud-Est, dont certains anciens, passés à la CAT puis Air America, figuraient sans doute parmi les connaissances de Vogeleer. Il me semble que l'on aperçoit d'ailleurs le badge des Tigres dans le bar Madrid fréquenté par Poe et Vogeleer.

A propos de Donnay, il serait intéressant de savoir s'il existe un lien avec la firme de Couvin ou s'il ne s'agit encore que d'un homonyme?...

Il est intéressant aussi de creuser un peu du côté de "Ed Wilson" ... Même si son passage par la Belgique est encore un mystère pour moi ...

Edwin P. Wilson was born May 3, 1923, at Napa, Idaho. He was six feet four inches tall. He came from a poor family and was 14 when his father died and he became the provider. He joined the Marines in 1952 and served nearly three years before his discharge as first lieutenant. On November 1, 1955, the day of his discharge from the Marines, he joined the CIA in Korea.

He was a Staff employee of the Office of Security of the CIA from 1955 to 1960, after which he became a staff agent. During this time Edwin P. Wilson said he worked on security for the U-2. He was used by the International Organizations Division in international labor union affairs and later was used by Special Operations Division to run a Washington, D.C., maritime proprietary. Ex-CIA contract employee Ernest R. Keiser said he saw Edwin P. Wilson in Miami in April 1961. Jack Anderson reported that Wilson was involved in the Bay of Pigs invasion and in a scheme to have dolphins attach explosive charges to Cuban ships. Edwin P. Wilson told private detective Richard Bast that in 1964 he served as an advance man for Senator Hubert Humphrey, while still working for the CIA.

Edwin P. Wilson resigned from the CIA in February 1971 and became a contract agent for Naval Intelligence. The Navy set him up in a proprietary very similar to the one he had used while with the Agency for the purpose of providing non-official cover to the Office of Naval Intelligence agents serving overseas under a Project known as Task Force 157. Task Force 157 was a group of about 75 agents who gathered intelligence around the world under the cover of export-import operations. Wilson's assignment was to set up a front called Consultants International, through which agents would be run and supplied. It was a joint CIA/Navy operation. Wilson, as paymaster, was able to embezzle a fortune from the operation. Naval Task Force 157 was shut down by then-Navy Intelligence Director Bobby Inman because of the behavior of Edwin P. Wilson. [Jack Anderson Wash. Post 6.30.77]

Wilson had lunch with Inman in early 1976 and told Inman that he would employ his contacts in the Congress to lobby on behalf of Inman's naval budget requests if Inman in return would help funnel government contract's to Wilson's businesses. [Wash. Post 9.12.81]

Mr. Wilson was terminated by the Navy in early 1976. In June 1976 Edwin P. Wilson and former CIA Agent Frank Terpil obtained a military contract from Libya worth tens of millions of dollars. Frank Terpil's wife was the secretary of William F. Buckley. Terpil knew DAVID PHILLIPS. Author Jim Hougan reported that Terpil told him he had been introduced to PHILLIPS by Hal Hendrix, who had a daughter Terpil knew. Terpil told Hougan that PHILLIPS used the name BISHOP when he knew him at the CIA. Terpil checked the name BISHOP in CIA indices and found that BISHOP was DAVID PHILLIPS. [The Last Investigation, Fonzi, page 364]

_ _ _


The Libyan Case first came to the Agency's attention on September 7, 1976, when Kevin Mulcahy, a former Agency employee, contacted Theodore Shackley, Associate Deputy Director for Operations, and advised Mr. Shackley that he wished to meet with Agency officials to discuss the activities of a firm he was associated with known as the 'International Technologies Incorporated.' Mr. Mulcahy indicated that the firm was ostensibly involved in a project in Libya to clear World War II mine fields.

But Mr. Mulcahy had become suspicious that more than mine clearing was involved. Early on September 8, 1976, Mr. Mulcahy was in touch with Mr. Thomas A. Cox of the Inspector General's Office who met with Mr. Mulcahy later in the day. During this meeting Mr. Mulcahy indicated that he had come across some documents in the office of Edwin P. Wilson which led Kevin Mulcahy to conclude that Inter-Tech Incorporated was involved in a program to teach covert sabotage techniques to individuals in Libya and that the mine clearing project was merely a cover.

Mr. Wilson is a former Agency employee and according to Mr. Mulcahy, he is the owner of Inter-Technology. Mr. Mulcahy gave Mr. Cox copies of the documents-- one of which was a proposal to conduct a program to teach covert sabotage techniques and other clandestine trade craft using the cover of mine sweeping operation. The second was a copy of a contract between Inter-Technology and John H. Harper, a former Agency employee, under which Mr. Harper agreed to go to Libya to teach mine disposal techniques for one year at a salary of $98,000. It was during this meeting with Mr. Cox that Mr. Mulcahy alleged that a current Agency employee was receiving payments from Inter-Technology in return for arranging to have an Agency contractor, American Electronics Laboratory, manufacture sophisticated timing devices. Mr. Mulcahy alleged that he personally had delivered the money to our employee on several occasions at the Ramada Inn at Tyson's Corner, Virginia, and that our employee had taken a cut of $3,700 from the $15,000 cash payment which was made to the contractor for the timing device.

In both his phone conversation with Mr. Shackley and his meeting with Mr. Cox, Mr. Mulcahy behaved in an excited an emotional fashion and appeared to Mr. Cox to be under the influence of alcohol. In addition, Mr. Mulcahy had been interviewed by a representative of the FBI on September 6, 1976, and on September 7, 1976, behaved in a similar fashion and did not impress the FBI agent as a reliable informant. Mr. Mulcahy limited his conversation with the FBI agent to the allegations regarding the activities of Inter-Technology in Libya and did not mention any information concerning our current employee. The FBI prepared a report for his Headquarters but apparently did not place much credence or significance in Mr. Mulcahy' story.

Following receipt by the Agency of the information from Mr. Mulcahy, internal checks were conducted which tended to confirm certain aspects of his story. The Agency employee did have official dealings with American Electronic Laboratory and the American Electronic Laboratory employees mentioned by Mr. Mulcahy did have security clearance for work on Agency contracts. Our employee, however, is not an authorized contracting officer. In addition, the Agency received and independent report from a retired Agency employee that Mr. Wilson had approached him on September 3, 1976, with a proposal to undertake a mission to Libya which would involve teaching explosive manufacturing techniques to individuals nominated by the Libyan Government. The offer included a salary of $100,000 per year and other fringe benefits. When the retired employee declined the offer, Mr. Wilson pressed him for the name of someone else who might be qualified to handle the job. A name was provided but this person also refused Mr. Wilson's offer.

Based on the foregoing a decision was made by the Deputy Director of the CIA to formally refer this case to the FBI. Mr. Vernon Weimar, FBI Liaison Officer, was briefed on the case on September 13, 1976, by the Director of Security and also met with the Deputy Inspector General on the same day...On September 21, 1976, a second memorandum was forwarded to the FBI containing additional information which had come to the Agency's attention -- the most significant of which was the fact that a former operational asset of the Agency had reported on September 19, 1976, that he also had been approached by Mr. Wilson. The asset and two fellow members of the Florida Cuban community had been requested to meet Mr. Wilson in Europe. They met in Geneva, Switzerland on September 15, 1976, where Mr. Wilson and a second individual, identified only as 'Frank' but believed to be a former Agency employee by the name of Francis E. Terpil, proposed that the three Cubans undertake the mission to teach covert sabotage techniques in Libya and to undertake an assassination mission of a Libyan who had 'defected' to Egypt. The three Cubans declined and returned immediately to the United States where one of them contacted his former Directorate of Plans Case Officer to report the approach by Mr. Wilson. [The FBI was given biographic material on the individuals involved by the CIA]

During his contacts with members of the Agency, Kevin Mulcahy mentioned two other firms as being involved in supplying material to Inter-Technology for the Libyan project. These firms were Scientific Communications Inc. and 'Household Electronics,' subsequently identified as Household Data Service, a firm owned by a former Agency employee, David L. Christ. Both of these firms have contracts with the Agency. The role of Household Data Services has not as yet been made clear, but Scientific Communications Inc. was providing timing devices to Inter-Technology for use in Libya. A representative of Scientific Communications Inc. has stated that his company‘s participation was legal and he was not operating under the impression that there was a CIA connection with the project.

The Office of Security is aware that since his departure for the Agency in 1971. Mr. Wilson has been engaged in sales efforts in the international arms and electronic equipment field. His activities have come to the attention of the FBI on several occasions in the past few years and investigations have been conducted in terms of failure to register as an agent of a foreign power and similar matters. However, Mr. Wilson has also been of concern to this office and to the FBI due to associations in 1967, 1968 with Kenneth B. Tolliver, a former Staff Aide to Senator James Eastland. Mr. Wilson reported at the time on Mr. Tolliver's suspicious activities, believing him to be an agent of Rhodesian or South African Intelligence. However, it was subsequently determined that Mr. Tolliver had been recruited by the KGB, and was later run as a double agent by the FBI...Tolliver has admitted that he passed Mr. Wilson's name to the KGB as having been employed by the CIA.

During the period of his association with the Agency as well as during his subsequent association with the Navy, Mr. Wilson has been active in many business ventures, presumably on his own time. As a result he has managed to become a man of some apparent wealth, as evidenced by this residence in Upperville, Virginia, which is described as a 1,600 acre farm.

A final point in regard to Mr. Wilson concerns a phone conversation he had with Kevin Mulcahy's mother on September 22, 1976. Mr. Wilson had returned to the United States, had heard that Kevin Mulcahy was spreading stories about him (Wilson) and had called Mrs. Mulcahy seeking information about Kevin. During this conversation Mr. Wilson made the statement to the effect that Kevin 'might get killed along with the others' as a result of this problem. When Mrs. Mulcahy challenged him on this apparent threat, Mr. Wilson immediately backed down and stated that he meant that he (Mr. Wilson) might get killed, not Kevin. However, in a later interview with the FBI, Donald Mulcahy, Kevin's father and also a former Agency employee, spoke well of Mr. Wilson and stated that Kevin has a long history of fabricating stories. He pointed out that Kevin was of that moment hospitalized for detoxification. [Edwin P. Wilson also threatened to kill the wife of prosecution witness Peter R. Goulding and the federal prosecutor.]

Another key figure in this case is former Agency employee Francis E. Terpil. He was employed by the Agency from 1965 until 1972, at which time he was asked to resign under prejudice as a result of an unauthorized trip from New Delhi to Kabul. Since his resignation he has been active in the sale of arms and electronic equipment in the Middle East and has frequently come to the attention of the Agency as a result of his efforts to leave the impression that he is still employed by the Agency. He has been of interest to the FBI on several occasions since 1972 in regard to charges such as failure to register as an agent of a foreign power and the illegal exporting of positive audio devices. Mr. Terpils role in the Libyan case is not entirely clear although his name does appear on the proposal found in Mr. Wilson's office regarding the teaching of covert sabotage techniques, and he is believed to be the 'Frank' who participated in the pitch made to the three Cubans in Geneva. Recent cable traffic indicates that Mr. Terpil is connected with a company known as Stanford Technology Corporation which is engaged in electronic equipment sales in the Middle East and may be bidding for some of the business connected with the IBEX project in Iran.

A remaining former Agency employee whose name has been mentioned by Kevin Mulcahy but whose role in this matter has not been determined is DAVID L. CHRIST. MR. CHRIST owns an electronics firm known as Household Data Services, in Reston, Virginia. This firm currently has some contracts with the Agency. Kevin Mulcahy has never specified what part MR. CHRIST and his firm play in this case, and no other information concerning them has come to our attention as yet.

Raymond M. Reardon of the Special Analysis Group commented:

Aside from the allegation originally made by Kevin Mulcahy, there is no indication that the Subject [CHRIST] was ever involved in the Libyan case. The full file on the Libyan Case is held in Special Analysis Group.

ATLAS POWDER COMPANY

CHRIST was also connected to the Libyan flap thought the Atlas Powder Company. Raymond Reardon noted: "CHRIST at one time (1940's) worked for the Atlas Powder Company in Reynolds, Pa. FBI report indicates Ed Wilson may have had a contact in Atlas in connection with obtaining export license." [CIA Reardon SAG 2.25.77]

CHRIST AND WILSON

There was no indication in CHRIST'S CIA file that he was ever questioned about his connection with Wilson. According to Jack Anderson, the supplies provided to Libya included explosives concealed in common household items like ashtrays, lamps, coat hangers etc. [Anderson Wash. Post 12.20.82] CHRIST was an explosives expert. Were these products designed by Household Data Services and assembled in Libya? The Washington Post reported "Prosecutors charged that Wilson arranged with a California explosives dealer to buy and ship 42,300 pounds of C-4 explosive, from Houston to Libya on October 3, 1977, aboard a chartered cargo jet. Government testimony indicated that part of the C-4 was used to make exploding lamps, toasters and other booby traps for Libyan terrorists." Edwin P. Wilson also hired John Henry Harper, a former CIA explosives expert, to construct these explosive devices.

The Washington Post reported John Henry Harper was one of the first explosives experts recruited by Wilson from the ranks of his former CIA colleagues to help the Libyans build exploding lamps, ashtrays, coat hangers, teapots and other terrorist instruments. The purpose of these exploding devices, which were assembled in a hideaway desert laboratory at the Winter palace of Libya's deposed monarch, King Idris, according to the investigative summary, was described by Wilson: 'You know, the colonel (Qaddafi) may sometimes have some young colonels or some officers or something that are getting out of line that he wants to send a present to. [9.12.81]

EDWIN WILSON: THE CIA'S MOST NOTORIOUS RENEGADE

Wilson amassed $14 million dollars. He had real estate holding that included a 2,400 acre farm in Upperville, Virginia. Much of this came from his dealings with the Libyans. Wilson bribed government officials. He contracted former Green Berets to go to Libya and teach Libyans the techniques of terrorism. The guns and explosives (C-4) that he sold the Libyans would be used against Libyan dissidents and American civilians. He arranged for the assassination of Omran El-Mehdawi, a former finance attache and second secretary in the Libyan Embassy, in Fort Collins, Colorado. In May 1979, Robert A. Manina, an associate of Edwin Wilson, had his Jaguar blown up in his driveway of his home in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. Eugene Tafoya, the same man charged in the shooting of Omran El-Mehdawi, was charged in this bombing. [Wash Post 8.3.82] Wilson planned to sell the Libyans nuclear technology which could have resulted in the loss of millions of American lives. He was a truly amoral individual and his association with DAVID CHRIST was indicative of where CHRIST stood within the CIA. Edwin P. Wilson first surfaced in the press during the investigation in April 1977 of the assassination of Orlando Letelier. Bob Woodward wrote:
A former CIA explosives expert and three Cuban exiles will soon be sought by Federal authorities for questioning in the interrogation of last year's Embassy Row murder of former Chilean Ambassador Orlando Letelier, according to informed sources. Edwin P. Wilson, the former CIA operative, and the three Miami-based Cuban exiles came to the attention of Federal officials when they learned that Wilson was under FBI investigation in an unrelated assassination plot abroad. Wilson allegedly sought to recruit the three Cubans to kill a political opponent of Libyan leader Col. Omar Quadaffi last year, according to the sources. Wilson heads a small consultanting firm here called Consultant's International. It is involved in the arms export business. Wilson was out of the country yesterday and could not be reached for comment. In reviewing the information developed in the Libyan investigation of Wilson investigators have established three possible connections with the Letelier case. Wilson had a secret contract with the Libyan government to provide detonation devices called 'timing pencils' a tube filled with chemicals that can be remotely controlled to trigger explosions. Such a timing pencil is believed to have been used to detonate the bomb that exploded beneath Letelier's car. The three Cuban exiles arrived in the Washington, D.C. area just three days before the September 21, 1976, bombing of Letelier's car. One of the Cuban exiles, an explosives expert believed to have been trained by the CIA in the late 1960's, met in Miami recently with a close associate with other Cuban exiles who have been suspects in the Letelier case. [Wash. Post 4.12.77]

Wilson's attorney, Seymour Glanzer, represented one of the main figures in the Letelier case, Michael Townley, who pleaded guilty and testified against Cubans for a reduced sentence. In 1995 DINA chiefs Manuel Contreras and Pedro Espinoza were sentenced to six and seven years respectively for ordering the Letelier assassination. In 1996, Michael Townley, who was under the witness protection program, was summoned to testify before an Argentinean magistrate who was investing the murder of Chilean General Carlo Pratt and his wife in Buenos Aires. In 1996 Townley's associate in DINA, Eugenio Berrios, who was involved in sarin attacks on Chilean dissidents and who helped Townley construct the bomb that killed Letelier was found shot to death on beach in Uruguay. His hands were cut off and his fact was stripped off in an effort to prevent identification. Edwin P. Wilson was indicted in absentia on April 23, 1980. From 1979 to 1980 Edwin P. Wilson lived in Tripoli. During this period Wilson met with United States Attorney E. Lawrence Barcella, Jr. in Rome. Wilson offered to kidnap two suspects in the assassination of Orlando Letelier -- Jose Dionisio Suarez and Virgilio Pablo Paz -- if the charges against him were dropped. [Wash. Post 7.26.81] Jack Anderson alleged that Wilson was connected with Samuel Cummings of INTERARMCO. [Wash. Post 10.9.81]

RAPHAEL QUINTERO AND RAOUL VILLAVERDE

The Washington Post reported:

Both prosecution witnesses [against Wilson], Raphael Quintero of Vero Beach, and Raoul Villaverde of Miami, said they were veterans of the 1961 Bay of Pigs invasion and had met Wilson during the preparations for that abortive CIA operation. A third Cuban American, Villaverde's brother Raphael, who also was allegedly recruited for the death plot by Wilson, died in a boating accident [in the Bahamas] in March 1980.

Villaverde's speedboat exploded and he disappeared at sea. Hinkle and Turner named Raul Villaverde, Rafael 'Chi Chi' Quintero, Lois Posada Carriles, Felix Rodriguez (aka Max Gomez), FRANK FIORINI, and Ricardo Chavez as members of Operation Forty. Hinkle and Turner stated that Joaquin Sanjenis directed Operation Forty for almost ten years, until his death and that Sanjenis was initially under the overall control of HOWARD HUNT. The Christic Institute alleged that Thomas Clines, an associate of Edwin Wilson, and Ted Shackley were involved with Operation Forty. The explosion aboard Villaverde's craft was later ruled an accident. In the 1980's the Villaverde's played a key role in the La Penca conspiracy by traveling to Chile and recruiting Amac Galil, as the assassin to plant a bomb at a press conference held by Castro's secretary, Eden Pastora. [Cockburn, Out of Control p99] The Villaverdes were also involved with the Nugan Hand Bank, which was connected to Werbell through Rear Admiral (retired) Earl P. Yates. [Tribune, Australia, 4.13.83] Wilson and his associates were experts at constructing and planting explosive devices. Raphael Villaverde was going to testify against Wilson. He died in an explosion.

THE DEATH OF KEVIN MULCAHY AND WALDO H. DUBBERSTEIN

Kevin Mulcahy, the son of a career CIA official, resigned from his job as a communications specialist with the CIA in 1968 and in 1976 joined Wilson, Terpil and others in the Libya project, claiming he thought the activities had the agencies blessings. Mulcahy said he later split from Wilson after Wilson ordered him to procure a heat-seeking Redeye missile for the Libyans from the General Dynamics Corporation. Mulcahy was concerned the missile might be used in a terrorist attack on a commercial jetliner. On October 26, 1982, Kevin Mulcahy, 39, died in at a run down motel in Edinburg, Virginia. Mulcahy had been asked to leave the hotel after shooting birds shot out of his window. Mulcahy was found wedged between the screen and front door of the Mountain View Hotel where rooms rented for $50 a week. Clad only in street cloths, and grey sports coat and slacks that were dropped to his knees. Mulcahy was discovered by Linda Messick at 8:00 a.m.: "He was in a hunched up position with his arms crossed." Della Morris, 71, a year long resident of a cottage next to the one rented by Mulcahy said Mulcahy stayed in his cottage most of the week, except for two trips to obtain what she believed to be alcohol. After motel owner David Stalker told Mulcahy he would have to leave, he piled Mulcahy's belongings in Mulcahy's pick up truck then left. Though Stalker said Mulcahy told him that he was going to the University of Virginia Hospital in Charolottesville, to get a second opinion on a recently diagnosed cancer, Mulcahy did not leave. Police later found the keys to his truck inside the locked cottage. Della Morris observed Mulcahy at this time: "He was staggering. He kept slumping over the steering wheel and would lean on the horn every so often. Then he started hollering for David Stalker for about 20 minutes. He kept fading off. I didn't hear no more of him the whole night."

In Mulcahy's truck police said they found five suitcases, a quilt, a carton of cigarettes, the 12-gauge shotgun and a canvas windbreaker containing an unopened bottle of wine. Three of the suitcases were filled with documents from the CIA, notes and tape recordings. The suitcases were given to the FBI. [Wash. Post 10.28.82] The cause of death was "exposure and complications of existing health problems...bronchial pneumonia and emphysema." It was suggested that Mulcahy had been locked out of his room and died of exposure after the temperature fell to 40 degrees A case of 12 empty wine bottles were found in Mulcahy's room, but his blood alcohol level was low. Mulcahy turned down a chance to be in the Federal Witness Protection program. His death was definitely suspicious. Why had he discharged his weapon? Why didn't he get in his car and turn the heater on? The weather was not below freezing, why should he have frozen to death? On April 29, 1983, Waldo H. Dubberstein, a former associate of Edwin P. Wilson, was killed with a shotgun that he had recently purchased. He left a suicide note declaring his innocence. Dubberstein, 75, lived with a German woman aged 32. His death was ruled a suicide. Waldo H. Dubberstein, 75, had worked for the CIA from 1947 to 1971, when he left for the Defense Intelligence Agency. Waldo H. Dubberstein was indicted for unauthorized disclosure of classified information, and he had access to design plans for nuclear weapons. [Wash. Post 5.3.83] He was accused of meeting with the Libyans with the knowledge of the Defense Intelligence Agency. He faced 57 years in prison.

RICHARD SECORD AND THEODORE SHACKLEY

Secord first met Wilson through Thomas G. Clines, a CIA official in 1972 and Wilson's case officer at the CIA. Secord testified at Wilson's trial that at meetings with Wilson in Iran and Belgium in the late 1970's and in 1980 Wilson offered data about Libyan military activities. [Wash. Post 2.4.83] Edwin P. Wilson was in touch with Theodore Shackley. He said he had provided the CIA with information on Libya plans to build a nuclear bomb. John Heath, a former employee of Edwin P. Wilson, said Edwin P. Wilson had bragged that he was going to sell nuclear technology to Libya. Edwin P. Wilson threatened to kill John Heath during a conversation he had with him from Edwin P. Wilson's jail cell in New York. Theodore Shackley admitted being in contact with Edwin P. Wilson, but said he cut off contact with him after allegations of his misdeeds arose. The House Intelligence Committee could not find any evidence of official contact between Wilson and Shackley and Cline. [Wash. Post 2.3.83] An associate of Wilson, Douglas M. Schlacter, testified that he met with Thomas G. Clines and Theodore Shackley, during which time they discussed obtaining information on the Soviets, Koreans etc.

Shackley and Clines were partners in a consulting firm in Rosslyn, Virginia.When Edwin P. Wilson sent a letter to the U.S. Customs Service which stated that the Tencom Corporation of Northbrook, Illinois, was a supplier of aircraft parts to Libya, Myles Ambrose represented Tencom.

WILSON'S TRIAL

On February 13, 1982, Schlacter pleaded guilty to one count of transportation of explosives in return for his testimony about Wilson. Edwin P. Wilson was lured back to the United States on June 16, 1982, through the efforts of Ernest R. Keiser and Seymour Hersh. They convinced him he could meet with U.S. Government representatives in the Dominican Republic without fear of arrest, by showing him a letter on National Security Council stationary which authorized a meeting, but when he arrived in the Dominican Republic with a false passport, he was flown to the United States. Edwin Wilson's defense was that he worked for the CIA at the time of his dealings with Libya and he had done so at the request of the CIA. His mission was to set up a proprietary in Libya to mask espionage operations on Soviet tanks, MIG fighters and mines. Richard V. Secord, deputy assistant secretary of Defense in charge of Mideast arms sales and Bobby Inman of the CIA, testified that Wilson was not working for the CIA at the time he made the arms sales. [Wash. Post 11.10. 82]

On December 21, 1982, Edwin P. Wilson was sentenced to 15-years for smuggling arms to Libya in 1979. In January 1983 Edwin P. Wilson and his son conspired to have five witnesses and two prosecutors murdered. Wilson associate Alexander Raffio accused Wilson of attempting to ship explosives to the PLO while he was in prison, via telephone calls to Wilson's office in London, England.

CHRIST, WILSON AND THE HSCA

HSCA investigator Dan Hardway was sent the newly released CHRIST documents then contacted in June 1994. Dan Hardway: "I don't remember any of that. We did not look at the stuff about his involvement with Wilson. I don't recall having interviewed him. I remember the name. Some critics suggested he was QJ/WIN. Mankel was QJ/WIN." Scott Malone reported that Edwin P. Wilson claimed to have special knowledge of the Kennedy assassination. HEMMING told this researcher:
I ran across Wilson in the 1960's. Ed Wilson was working for the Mossad penetrating terrorist networks. He did a dangerous, dirty job. His grandfather was a Jew. He's a patriot. He got hung out to dry like I did. I had people visit him a while back and talk to him. We can knock his conviction down if he talks about certain things.

Frank Terpil was arrested in Cuba in September 1995. [Wilson, Edwin #08237-054 USP Atlanta POB PMB Atlanta, Ga. 30315]

Prelude To Terror: The Rogue Cia and The Legacy of America's Private Intelligence Network

Joseph John Trento
Basic Books, 19 mai 2005 - 408 pages

After decades of writing and research about American intelligence, Joseph Trento has written the most authoritative indictment of CIA splinter groups, two generations of Bush family involvement in illegal financial networks, and the funding of the agents of terror.

Prelude to Terror reveals the history of a corrupt group of spymasters—led by Ted Shackley—who were fired when Jimmy Carter became president, but who maintained their intelligence portfolio and used it to create a private intelligence network. After this rogue group helped engineer Carter's defeat in 1980 and allied with George H.W. Bush, these former CIA men planned and conducted what became the Iran–Contra scandal and, through the Saudis, allied the U.S. with extreme elements in Islam. The CIA's number-one front man, Edwin P. Wilson, was framed by Shackley and his cohorts so that Wilson's operations could be taken over. For the first time the story of how CIA director George H. W. Bush was recruited into this network, and brought it into the bosom of the Saudi royal family, is told in detail, as well as how this group's manipulation of the CIA bureaucracy allowed Osama bin Laden's fundraising to thrive as al Qaeda flourished under Saudi and CIA protection.

Ed Wilson faisait partie de la "Task Force 157"

http://www.serendipity.li/cia/cia_oz/cia_oz1.htm

(...)   Tony Douglas: What is Task Force 157 ?

Jerry Aaron: The Task Force 157 was a group set up by Henry Kissinger and it was set up in a quite strange way. It was a mini-CIA which was actually separate from the CIA and probably was set up by Kissinger so he could deny any connection between what the Task Force 157 was doing and the CIA. Nevertheless, the personnel of Task Force 157 included Ted Shackley, who was one of the head of sabotage operations against Cuba, he was Station Chief in Saigon during the Vietnam War, and he was the Chief of the CIA Western Hemisphere Division, so with an impeccable CIA record like that it would be very difficult to disassociate him from what the CIA was doing. The concept of Task Force 157 seems to have been two-fold: firstly, to set up operations against the Whitlam government. And secondly, to go ahead with using Australia as a base for certain clandestine U.S. operations such as arms dealing and smuggling of contraband goods.   (...)

Ed Wilson, l'agent voyou de la CIA

http://rendezvousavecmrx.free.fr/page/detail_emission.php?cle_emission=510

À peine sorti de prison, il a clamé sa volonté de se battre... C'était en 2004. Edwin Wilson, condamné à 52 ans de prison pour haute trahison et libéré après plus de 20 ans passés dans un pénitencier états-unien, a décidé qu'il consacrerait ses dernières forces à obtenir sa réhabilitation... Aujourd'hui, à plus de 80 ans, il n'a toujours pas renoncé. Mais il semble bien que sa cause soit désespérée... Et d'abord parce que l'innocence de cet étrange personnage semble hautement improbable. Bref, Wilson n'est certainement pas un Dreyfus américain. Mais son existence est suffisamment mystérieuse pour qu'on puisse encore se poser de nombreuses questions. Et d'abord celle-ci : Wilson, ancien de la CIA, accusé d'avoir trahi les Etats-Unis au profit de la Libye, n'a-t-il pas été un bouc émissaire ? Et lorsqu'il fournissait Kadhafi en armes, explosifs et même mercenaires, ne continuait-il pas à travailler secrètement pour la centrale états-unienne ? A moins, autre hypothèse, qu'il n'ait été un agent de l'Est, manipulé par le KGB...

Monsieur X a donc choisi cette semaine d'élucider cette énigme où apparaissent le bouillant et déconcertant leader libyen Kadhafi mais aussi de hauts personnages états-uniens.

Il faut enfin noter que la libération de Wilson a coïncidé avec la fin de l'embargo international sur les armes destinées à la Libye d'un Kadhafi soudain assagi et presque recommandable... Un simple hasard ? Mais, dans le monde obscur de Monsieur X, il y a décidément beaucoup de curieux hasards !

On l'a appelé le " DC3 fantôme " ! Un DC3 ! L'un de ces bons vieux Dakotas qui a été si utile aux parachutages alliés pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale et qui a ensuite été la bête de somme du transport aérien sur de nombreux continents... Celui-là, immatriculé Fox Bravo Indiana Echo Echo, a disparu quelque part au nord de l'Afrique en 1978. Et l'on ne sait toujours pas ce que sont devenus ses deux pilotes et son passager, tous trois partis de l'aérodrome de Toulouse-Blagnac, un jour de la fin du mois de juillet. Trois hommes qui partaient accomplir une étrange mission dont ils ne sont donc jamais revenus.

J'ai demandé à Monsieur X d'essayer d'éclaircir ce mystère. Surtout depuis qu'il m'a appris la semaine passée que le non moins curieux Edwin Wilson était vraisemblablement mêlé à cette affaire... Je résume : Wilson, ancien agent de la CIA, est devenu dans les années 70 un marchand d'armes qui a longtemps fricoté avec le colonel Kadhafi à qui il a fourni des tonnes d'explosifs, de détonateurs et d'autres joujoux du même ordre. Mais il est allé encore plus loin puisque, toujours à la demande du dictateur libyen, il s'est mué en sergent recruteur en envoyant à Tripoli nombre d'anciens Bérets verts. C'est à dire des mercenaires.

Wilson, en agissait ainsi, travaillait-il encore pour son ancien employeur, la CIA, qui, à l'évidence, n'ignorait rien de ses activités, malgré de nombreuses mises en garde ? Quoi qu'il en soit, Wilson a fini par devoir rendre des comptes à la Justice de son pays et il a été lourdement condamné. Mais le doute demeure. Car, Wilson, qui a bénéficié d'une libération conditionnelle, continue à clamer son innocence.

En tout cas, il semble bien qu'il ait été à l'origine de la mission confiée aux trois occupants français du DC3 fantôme...

The Lewiston Daily Sun - 25 juin 1982

Il semble bien y avoir eu des liens entre Ted Shackley et Stefano delle Chiaie (qui a rencontré Guillaume Vogeleer) ...


http://www.ldsfreedomforum.com/search.php

(...)

That investigation, which resulted in a 1982 Virginia conviction, led to the discovery of the C-4 shipment to Qadaffy. By January of 1983 Barcella and a team of dedicated BATF agents had been on Ed Wilson's trail for five long years. Barcella, in Houston as an observer and advisor, had been "twiddling his thumbs most of the time," but he did testify as a witness. He was, by virtue of his role as the originator of the cases, "the institutional memory" of DoJ. Ted Greenberg had, from the other side of the Potomac in Alexandria, taken over other investigations stemming from Wilson's activities which led eventually to the Eatsco scandal. That investigation involved Wilson cronies Tom Clines, Air Force General Richard Secord, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense Eric von Marbod and the legendary Ted Shackley.

Shackley had served in the hottest CIA posts in history. He had run the Miami station known as JM-WAVE, targeting Fidel Castro in the early 1960s, and had been a key planner in the Bay of Pigs invasion. He was also directly involved in CIA attempts on Castro's life in concert with the Mafia. In the mid-sixties he had been the Chief of Station (COS) in Laos, running the largest covert operation in CIA history - a secret war intimately tied with opium and heroin smuggling and the abandonment of large numbers of American POWs. In the late sixties and early seventies he had served as COS in Saigon at the end of the Vietnam War. After leaving Saigon, Shackley had, for a time, served as Chief of the Western Hemisphere Division as the CIA orchestrated the overthrow of Chile's Salvador Allende. He had then become Associate Deputy Director of Operations (running all covert operations) in time to, as FTW believes, "preside" over Ed Wilson's Libyan affairs and the events that would ultimately result in the downfall of the Shah of Iran. Everywhere you looked in Wilson's life - post 1971 - you found either Shackley or his career-long deputy and sidekick, Tom Clines.

In early 1962 Harvey brought Ted Shackley into the project as deputy chief of JM/WAVE. In April, 1962, Shackley was involved in delivering supplies to Johnny Roselli as part of the plan to assassinate Fidel Castro. Later that year he became head of the station. In doing so, he gained control over Operation 40 or what some now called Shackley’s Secret Team. Shackley was also responsible for gathering intelligence and recruiting spies in Cuba. Most of the anti-Castro Cubans that the CIA managed to infiltrate into Cuba were captured and either imprisoned or executed.

(...)

According to recently released AMWORLD documents it would seem that Shackley and Jenkins continued to use Operation 40 against Castro. In his book, The Crimes of a President, Joel Bainerman argues that during this period “Theodore Shackley headed a program of raids and sabotage against Cuba. Working under Shackley was Thomas Clines, Rafael Quintero, Luis Posada Carriles, Rafael and Raul Villaverde, Frank Sturges, Felix Rodriguez and Edwin Wilson.”

In 1966 Shackley was placed in charge of the CIA secret war in Laos. He appointed Thomas G. Clines as his deputy. He also took Carl E. Jenkins, David Morales, Raphael Quintero, Felix Rodriguez and Edwin Wilson with him to Laos. According to Joel Bainerman it was at this point that Shackley and his "Secret Team" became involved in the drug trade. They did this via General Vang Pao, the leader of the anti-communist forces in Laos. Vang Pao was a major figure in the opium trade in Laos. To help him Shackley used his CIA officials and assets to sabotage the competitors. Eventually Vang Pao had a monopoly over the heroin trade in Laos. In 1967 Shackley and Clines helped Vang Pao to obtain financial backing to form his own airline, Zieng Khouang Air Transport Company, to transport opium and heroin between Long Tieng and Vientiane.

According to Alfred W. McCoy (The Politics of Heroin: CIA Complicity in the Global Drug Trade) Shackley and Clines arranged a meeting in Saigon in 1968 between Santo Trafficante and Vang Pao to establish a heroin-smuggling operation from Southeast Asia to the United States.

Un lecteur attentif me fait remarquer que Virgilio Paz Romero intervient dans les deux documents suivants :

En 1975, il (Stefano Delle Chiaie) a rencontré l’agent usaméricain de la DINA Michael Townley et le Cubain anti-castriste Virgilio Paz Romero (un proche de Luis Posada Carriles), afin de préparer l’attentat contre le démocrate chrétien chilien Bernardo Leighton.
