My guess is that a scandal like that could potentially do more than destroy President Clinton's historical legacy. It could ruin Al Gore's chances for succession. It could set back the Democratic Party nationally for a decade. It could help Americans regain their senses and reconstitute their naturally healthy skepticism of government benevolence. It seems someone is trying very hard to make sure Americans never reach such conclusions. Last week, as reported exclusively in the Ottawa Citizen and WorldNetDaily, two crimes occurred within hours of each other hundreds of miles apart that raise questions as to whether someone is attempting to silence those who have tried to expose just such a real-life scandal. In Pine Bluff, Ark., someone firebombed a prosthetics clinic owned by Michael Galster, the author, under the nom de plume Michael Sullivan, of "Blood Trail," a fictional account of the prison-blood scandal. Since writing his book, Galster has been on an international campaign to expose the blood trail that led from the Arkansas prisons to the AIDS deaths in Canada. Meanwhile, in Montreal, someone broke into the offices of the Quebec chapter of the Canadian Hemophilia Society, which recently unearthed documents that showed Finance Minister Paul Martin was a board member of the corporation that owned Connaught Laboratories, the company that fractionated and distributed the Arkansas prison plasma in Canada. Officials at the Hemophilia Society said thieves stole a computer, telephones and documents from a box labeled "Hepatitis C, Krever Commission, Reform of the blood system, HIV-AIDS." Executive Director Pierre Desmarais said it appears the thieves were looking for information rather than goods. Mike McCarthy, a Canadian hemophiliac activist pushing for a broader investigation of the blood scandal, is convinced the two crimes are linked. "It's too much of a coincidence," he said. "They're trying to find out what we know and erase the trail if they can. I think they're also sending a message. They're trying to scare us into backing off. They're trying to put the fear of God into us, that if we pursue the truth it can get worse. That the next action might not just be buildings and records." But who is this "they" to whom McCarthy refers? If there is such a conspiracy to obstruct justice and truth in the matter of the blood scandal, can there be any doubt as to who is behind it? Who would have the power and resources to conduct such a daring, international campaign of dirty tricks? In another time, during another administration, didn't we refer to such actions as an illegal "plumbers operation"? "It's really frightening," said Desmarais. "This is the kind of thing you see in the movies." Yet, with all the news being made in Washington -- from bombing foreign embassies and hospitals to the selling out of vital national security secrets to the Chinese to the latest government attacks on the fundamental human right to bear arms -- it's easy to overlook a story like this. It's easy to miss what it suggests about the criminal character of the Clinton administration. It's so easy to miss the forest of scandal for the trees. Sometimes the cover-up is more dangerous than the original crime. Someone's betting that few will notice these events -- that even fewer will connect the dots spread across a continent and two separate nations. They're hoping that those who do will chalk it up to coincidence. "I'm trying not to get too paranoid about it," says Galster. "I pray to God that it was just a coincidence." While he's praying to God that it was a coincidence, I prefer to pray to God that the guilty parties -- those responsible for these recent acts as well as the bigger and more deadly prison blood scandal, whomever they may be -- are caught and held accountable for their despicable crimes. -- Outgoing mail is certified virus free Scanned by Norton AntiVirus A vast right-wing conspiracy. ~~ HRC <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
