State Department Stonewalls New Ron Brown Crash Questions
A State Department spokesperson told Inside Cover on Monday that
it would be "a waste of taxpayers' money" to respond to questions
raised by a newly uncovered log detailing Clinton administration
actions after late Commerce Secretary Ron Brown's plane vanished
from radar screens on April 3, 1996.
The document, labeled "Confidential, Department of Commerce" and
kept secret for more than three years, offers an internal
government account of events on the day Brown died that is
starkly different from the official government version on a
number of key points. (See Documents Reveal Two May Have Survived
Initial Impact of Ron Brown Plane Crash.)
Among the most disturbing revelations is a log entry made April 3
at 9:40 pm Croatian time, an hour and twenty minutes after the
plane's wreckage was discovered, which shows concern at the
highest levels of the Clinton administration about videotaping at
the crash site:
"Poloff Hovenier called to relay strong request from [Deputy
Secretary of State] Strobe Talbott that HRT TV team in Dubrovnik
not film at the crash site. DCM called state protocol chief
Misetic who said he was already trying to get in touch with the
team to stop it."
The "no video" entry was logged just 42 minutes after Ira
Sokowitz, then a Commerce Department official who was in Sarajevo
at the time, notified Washington that two passengers "have been
recovered alive from the crash." One of those survivors was Tech.
Sgt. Shelly Kelly, who later died while being transported to a
Dubrovnik hospital.
Sokowitz's report of a second impact survivor became known only
when Judicial Watch released the secret Commerce Department log
to Inside Cover on Friday. The alleged survivor's identity
remains a mystery. It is not known how long he or she may have
lived after rescuers reached the crash site.
When asked why Talbott wanted the HRT TV team to stop filming,
the State Department spokesperson, who would speak only on
background, declined to elaborate on the log entry, suggesting
only that it might be understandable if Talbott didn't want "the
carnage of dead administration officials" to be filmed.
The spokesperson refused Inside Cover's repeated offers to make
the secret Commerce log available for his examination and refused
to relay questions about Talbott's "no video" order to Talbott
himself.
Instead, the official launched into an attack on Judicial Watch,
saying:
"If this [document] was faxed to you by [Judicial Watch Chairman]
Larry Klayman, I've got to believe there's something hateful
behind it all.... I just think letting Larry Klayman use up
another minute of anybody's time in government is just a waste of
taxpayers' money. The guy is hateful. That's all there is to it."
