The new issue of The Consortium (No. 40) is on the Web.
The top story reveals how dramatic new leads in a guns-for-drug
corruption scandal in Turkey tie into longstanding intelligence
mysteries in Europe and the United States. This rupture of Turkish
intelligence secrets started with a fatal car crash on a remote highway
south of Istanbul. A prominent Grey Wolf terrorist was linked in death
to a top Turkish intelligence official.
The new evidence has threatened to expose other secrets about the
collapse of a Vatican bank, the attempted murder of Pope John Paul II
and the reality behind a NATO arms network that shipped weapons to the
Iran-Iraq war with return payments in heroin. Violently, the
powers-that-be in Turkey are clamping down on journalists and other
investigators. Not surprisingly, the story has received almost no play
in the big American papers.
The second story looks at Lawrence Walsh's remarkable new book about
the Iran-contra scandal and how virtually every senior official in the
Reagan national security apparatus lied. Entitled Firewall, the book
is a well-documented narrative about how in the late 1980s, Washington
had become a city run by liars who were, in turn, protected by a
relentless Republican cover-up, a weak-kneed Democratic Congress and an
easily-bored news media.
