wpi@indigo.ieBelow is an extract from a Book/Novel "The China Threat" by a Bill Gertz
Security Correspondent for The
Washington Times a newspaper owned by the
"Moonies."
Gertz has a long record of being used by elements in the C.I.A/
F.B.I. to
peddle extreme right wing propaganda. It is now clear from various reports and
statements by Gertz that
he is the front man for the CIA in the conspiracy to extradite Sean Garland to the United States.
COMMUNIST CHINA'S
PLAN
" Three years earlier, in May 1997, a U.S. Air Force RC -135 intelligence-
gathering jet took off from Kadena
air Base, Japan. The reconnaissance aircraft
bristled with electronic spying equipment sensitive enough to pick out
individual
telephone conversations from millions of signals in the airwaves over China. The jet flew along a flight
path parallel to the coast of China about fifty miles
offshore.
The ultra sensitive electronic eavesdropping equipment
militarised Boeing
aircraft swept the airwaves during the nine hour flight. In secret reports, the
flights are
given code names like "Bachelor Warrior," " Beggar Hawk," and "Distant Wind." The plane's electronic ears can hear as
far away as western China, into the remote Xinjiang region, where Beijing conducts nuclear testing. This spring mission
produced a rare intelligence gem. No Chinese interceptor jets
diverted the plane, and a wealth of intelligence was
recorded and passed on to
analysis at the Pentagon.
The analysts began the task of separating the valuable material
from mundane
military information. The intelligence was polished and given a code word
that assigned it a rank
with the "Top Secret" designation.
"Moray" is the first level of Top secret. Then comes "Umbra." The
most
sensitive data is "Gamma."
Within a few days, the intelligence analysts had discovered that a senior
Chinese
Communist official had had a secret meeting with Sean Garland, managing director of a Dublin, Ireland, company identified
in the intelligence report as GKG Comms International Ltd. But Garland is more than a businessman. He is well
known to American and British intelligence.
A summary of the report was distributed to the highest ranking officials
in
the Clinton- Gore administration in early June 1997. Among the items it
contained were details of North Korea's
first launch of a new antiship cruise missile, Russia's launch of a new generation spy satellite, and a warning from a
Mexican
drug lord about an upcoming raid by Mexican troops on a farm suspected of housing drug production equipment.
But it
was the following passage that caught the eye of senior intelligence
officials:
Suspected Supernote Distributor
Meets with Chinese to Discuss Undisclosed
Business Deal (TSC OC)
(TSC OC) Sean Garland, Managing Director of GKG
Comms International Ltd., In
Dublin, met recently wit Cao Xiaobing, Bureau Director- General within the
Central Committee,
to discuss unidentified business opportunities according to late May 1997 information. (COMMENT: Garland is suspected
of being involved with counterfeiting U.S. currency, specifically, the Supernote, a high quality
counterfeit $100 bill.)
(W9B2, 3/00/18224-97,ILC)
Aside from his business interests, Garland was secretary general of the
Workers Party
in Ireland. A telling document obtained from Soviet archives
revealed that Garland wrote to the secretary of the
Communist Party of the Soviet
Union on September 15, 1986. In the "dear comrade" letter, Garland stated that
the
Workers' Party of Ireland had developed a five year program and asked Moscow to provide one million pounds to help.
The cash would be "of benefit to the world struggle for Peace, Freedom and Socialism." The document was posted on the
Internet by Vladimir Bukovsky, the well known Russian dissident who spent years in the Gulag Archipelago.
The meeting
between Cao and Garland in 1997 showed how China had become the ideological leader of what was left of the world communist
movement. U.S.
intelligence officials saw Communist China clandestinely supporting international
communists, including
those involved in international criminal activities- even those suspected of developing counterfeit $100 bills.
The
intelligence was unwelcome news for the Clinton-Gore administration and
was suppressed, as so many reports exposing the
Chinese threat have been
suppressed under Bill Clinton's pro-China foreign policy. The reports have always been handled
the same way. The standard procedure has been to dismiss such
secret intelligence as "unconfirmed." When it
could not be dismissed, it was
simply hidden or ignored. Among those covering up for China were White House
National
Security Adviser Samuel "Sandy" Berger, a former trade lawyer who worked to establish joint ventures in China for U.S. corporations,
and Secretary of
State Madeleine Albright, a liberal Georgetown University professor whose views of Communist China are
extremely favourable. The Pentagon intelligence report
and others like it contradicted the political line laid down
by President
Clinton: China is not a threat, and China must be "engaged" at all costs- even if
U.S. national security
and interests are harmed. "
