So, treat me nicely.
Speaking of the new world order.. I used to think it was a joke for the paranoid. I'm not so sure any more. Seems some have the idea that equal power across the globe is a good thing. To me, that time has not come yet as we, consciousness as a whole, globally, are not enlightened enough yet.
Why is such news so devastating to the worlds security as the below story not making it to the talking heads on CNN, MSNBC, etc.. Answer: Because they are in bed with the libs and want to be the voice for them should that day of big brother ever be realized.................spoo
n feeding us our daily thoughts and actions. Does that sound too paranoid??
Gore Faces Probe Over Russia Arms Deal Wednesday, October 25, 2000 By Barry Schweid
WASHINGTON — Backed by a statement of concern from four former Republican secretaries of state and other officials, Senate Republicans are airing allegations that Vice President Al Gore in 1995 secretly acquiesced to Russian arms sales to Iran.
Coming just two weeks before the Nov. 7 election, the Gore presidential campaign labeled the issue political and said a Senate hearing Wednesday would only rehash actions that were well known five years ago and
done in the interest of U.S. security.HUH??? But Sen. Sam Brownback, R-Kan., co-chair of the hearing with Sen. Gordon H. Smith, R-Ore., said, "U.S. national security is at stake."
Two of the 11 officials signing the statement of concern served in Democratic administrations.
Brownback, in a statement, said Secretary of State Madeleine Albright had admitted in a secret letter to Russian Foreign Minister Igor Ivanov that Gore promised Russia the United States would not enforce a 1992 law designed to curb the spread of dangerous technology. Gore had been a co-sponsor of the law when he was in the Senate.
"The administration must come clean and share with Congress the content of those secret agreements," Brownback said.
On Tuesday, 11 former high-level officials issued a statement saying Gore and then-Russian Prime Minister Viktor Chernomyrdin agreed in 1995 that the United States would acquiesce to the sale by Russia to Iran of "highly threatening military equipment such as modern submarines, fighter planes and wake-homing torpedoes." The statement said Gore did not inform Congress fully about the deal.
"We are deeply disturbed by the agreement," the officials said.
"The president's most important job is safeguarding our nation's security and our ability to protect our interests, our citizens, our allies and friends," the statement said.
Gore spokesman Jim Kennedy said the agreement with Russia prevented new arms sales to Iran, thereby helping to safeguard U.S. security.
The agreement was publicly announced and Congress was briefed at the time, Kennedy said in a statement. "No member of Congress and none of these former officials complained about it then or in the years since," he said.
"Their inaccurate complaints about it, only now, 14 days before the election, speaks for itself," Kennedy said.
The four former secretaries of state who joined in the statement were George P. Shultz, Henry A. Kissinger, James A. Baker III and Lawrence Eagleburger. Four former secretaries of defense — Frank C. Carlucci, Donald H. Rumsfeld, James R. Schlesinger and Caspar W. Weinberger — along with former CIA director R. James Woolsey and former national security advisers Zbigniew Brzezinski and Brent Scowcroft joined with them.
All worked in Republican administrations except Brzezinski and Woolsey. Brzezinski has been critical of the Clinton administration's foreign policy in the past. Schlesinger served in both Republican and Democratic administrations.
The New York Times reported earlier this month that Gore had promised the United States would not interfere with Moscow's fulfillment of existing sales contracts for conventional arms to Iran on condition such sales would conclude by the end of 1999.
The report said Washington agreed not to penalize Moscow under the 1992 law, which prohibited arms sales to countries the United States viewed as exporters of terrorism.
The Washington Times then reported that Chernomyrdin had urged Gore in a classified "Dear Al" letter on Dec. 9, 1995, to keep Russian nuclear cooperation with Iran confidential and said it was "not to be conveyed to third parties, including the U.S. Congress."
Just what I want to see, terrorists in subs with wake homing torpedoes...
Makes you wonder who side he's on.. or the sad fact Gore will do anything with anyone to gain/retain the power.
makes me sick
