-Caveat Lector-
Preview paragraph:
According to Tatum, only one figure emerged unscathed:
GEORGE BUSH, who [as a result of the "mysterious deaths" of
other principals] alone retained control of $3.8 billion in
laundered funds.
What did Bush intend to do with his 'black' $3.8 billion?
What was the ultimate purpose of the [Iranian] operation?
Perhaps it was to be used to inject financial muscle into
another, grander scheme, of which Tatum has spoken, involving
George Bush's "scope and mission" paper for a New World Order.
A copy of a paper written by George Bush outlines the
formation of a [secret multinational] Corporation whose purpose
is to "provide a central network of information, analysts, and
strategists on an international basis, in pursuit of world order
and economic stability".
The "scope" of the Corporation involves four features:
1) Centralisation of information services;
2) Analysis of data by region-specific analysts;
3) Providing recommendations by international experts;
4) PROVIDING AN INTERNATIONAL MASTER PLAN FOR WORLD GROWTH
AND ECONOMIC STABILITY.
The Corporation [scheduled to come into existence by 1996]
is to be privately owned, with a board of directors "consisting
of twelve members, elected annually by [its] shareholders." In
addition there are to be five departments: "Data Resources;
Political Management; Economic Management; Military Management;
and ENVIRONMENTAL Management".

THE PEGASUS FILE by David Guyatt
========================EXCERPT========================
The name "Pegasus" was, in fact, a 'cover' designation used
by Tatum to protect himself against possible prosecution.
Earlier this year Tatum revealed the true structure of the group
and explained why he felt the need to conceal it. Timing was all
important. In a message to this writer, Tatum stated, "It has
now been well past the five-year statute of limitations which
could have come back and haunted me. That date was January 22,
1997. On January 21, 1992 I walked out of the Jupiter Island
meeting to which I referred earlier."
Few individuals, even now, are aware of the significance of
Jupiter Island. Located on the Atlantic coast of Florida, just a
few miles north of Palm Beach, the island measures a mere half a
mile wide and nine miles long.
According to authors Webster Griffin Tarpley and Anton
Chaitkin, island residents read like a "Who's Who" of the
Anglo-American establishment. Many have close connections to the
intelligence apparatus and not a few are, or have been, members
of the notorious Skull and Bones Society, a secretive and
influential [quasi-] Masonic lodge formed at Yale law school.
Jupiter Island boasts hyper-security. All vehicles are
tracked by sensors placed in the roads and every housekeeper,
gardener or other non-resident is required by ordinance to be
fingerprinted and registered. Residents themselves are carefully
screened prior to being permitted to purchase real estate (many
purchase by invitation, it is thought) and one of their primary
duties as good residents is to perform active 'surveillance' to
ensure the island remains secure.
It was here that Tatum met with and discussed sensitive
projects with then Vice President and later President Bush, at
the residence of his mother, Rose Bush.
SECRET GOVERNMENT APPARATUS
The so-called Pegasus group's organisational structure, as
provided by Tatum, demands recounting in detail.
The presidential orders, which led to the formation and
operation of the covert activities in which Tatum and others
participated, are significant for they constitute a secret
government within a government. This is the power that hides
behind the open face of democratic government. Activities
include high-level narcotics trafficking, illegal transfers of
ultra-high-tech weaponry, money laundering on a massive scale and
an odd "hit" or "alignment" to keep wobbly-kneed individuals on
the straight and narrow.
It was in 1981, according to Tatum, that "President Reagan
signed National Security Decision Directive number 3 (NSDD-3)
which authorised the Vice President to chair the Special
Situation Group (SSG). The Special Situation Group was a
division under the National Security Council (NSC).
One entity formed to support the SSG was the Terrorist
Incident Working Group (TIWG), secretly @2 established in April
1982 by authority of President Reagan in NSDD-30 . This group
consisted of representatives of the following: Director of the
CIA, Department of Defense (DoD), *FEMA* [in which Oliver North
was active], the State Department, NSC staff and the FBI.
Tatum explained that, "The purpose of TIWG is to provide SSG
with direct operational support. TIWG then recommended to the
President that a Terrorism Task Force be formed and chaired by
the head of SSG (the Vice President).
Reagan approved NSDD-138 in April 1984, which extended
TIWG's ability to form sub-groups. One result of NSDD-138 was
the formation of the Operations Sub-Group (OSG). The Sub-Group
was a select NSC-DoD-CIA-FBI-foreign intelligence agency which
operated so as to bypass the regular operations of intelligence/
military/law-enforcement agencies. OSG was formed in Feb 1986."
Having revealed the framework of the presidential directives
authorising the conduct of these covert operations, Tatum then
detailed the nitty-gritty of the OSG: "When I was operating
under the authority of the OSG I would report directly to the
OSG, not to the CIA or DIA.
"This 'secret government' apparatus, built by Bush from 1981
to 1986, was able to draw upon assets from the CIA, the DoD
Special Operations units and the private sector. Using the
private sector clause, Don Gregg, VP Bush's National Security
Advisor, included a representative from British Intelligence and
Israeli Intelligence.
"To date I have called this group 'Pegasus' in an attempt
not to divulge its true identity until I was on safe ground.
Although most of the missions performed by OSG-2 are classified,
the existence of the organisation is now declassified."
Until Tatum forwarded these details, the existence of more
than one OSG was unknown. In fact, Tatum has now revealed the
existence of three OSGs.
OSG-1, headed by Ted Shackley, was "our anti-narcotics
group". OSG-2, headed by Col. Oliver North, was the anti-
terrorism group, where Tatum was originally posted. OSG-3,
headed by Richard Secord, was "our 'alignment' group".
Following the exposure of Oliver North's role in Contragate
in 1987, North resigned as head of OSG-2. His spot was taken
over by Secord and Tatum moved up to command OSG-3.
All three OSGs answered to those individuals who sat on the
TIWG. General Colin Powell represented the Department of
Defense; William Casey, the CIA; and Donald Gregg, the National
Security Council. "FBI guys rotated in and out," Tatum says.
"It was like they couldn't get anyone," he concludes.
Representing British Intelligence was Sir Colin Figure.
Formerly head of MI6, Sir Colin transferred in 1986 to become
"Security Coordinator" under the premiership of Margaret
Thatcher. He retired in 1989.
Of significance, too, was the occasional representation on
the TIWG of Lord Chalfont. The British lord was an adviser on
"Mid-East affairs" between 1986 and 1990.
Amiram Nir represented Israeli interests until his
assassination by an "Archer" team led by Tatum --at the request
of high-level Israeli individuals-- in 1988.
Any of these six could "call a mission". In addition,
George Bush could do likewise.
From the moment Chip Tatum was recruited to the OSG, he was
posted to upstate New York where he established a number of cover
businesses. One of these, Cedar Shores Estates, Inc., was his
base of operations throughout the next six years.
It may be no more than coincidence that the name of the
company is similar to Cedar Holdings, a British company that had
a relationship to former British Conservative Party Treasurer,
Lord (Alistair) McAlpine.
Author Peter Jones, in "The Obedience of Australia" (1995,
privately published), looked in some detail at the business
activities of this Conservative Party "Grey Eminence" and leading
Freemason. Of no little interest was the author's detailed
connections of numerous companies that he believed were involved
in all manner of dark activities. Interestingly, these included
a company called Leisure Circle that has a sinuous connection to
Sir John Cuckney, one of the central figures of the [British]
Scott Inquiry into arms sales to Iraq.
Whilst these connections are admittedly tenuous, to say the
least, it should be noted that Tatum's upstate New York operation
was also involved in shipping the most sophisticated weapons
across the border to Canada.
Not least are the known connections between Oliver North's
related gun-running operations that saw dirty money being
laundered through the Channel Islands and the London-based BCCI
(Bank of Credit and Commerce International). Money laundering
was one of the principal activities of Col. Oliver North.
THE "SUPERBILLS" STING
One operation of which Tatum has knowledge concerns the
so-called "Superbills" or "Supernotes" sting.
Years earlier, in the late '60s or early '70s, the CIA had
secretly provided to the Shah of Iran a perfect set of printing
plates that could reproduce $100 bills without blemish. Also
provided was an intaglio printing press. This special printing
press ensures that the etched plate meets paper with tremendous
force, creating the distinctive embossed feel of a genuine
banknote. In addition, the Shah was also given the ink and
banknote-quality paper, enabling him to produce perfect
counterfeit US dollar banknotes. The Shah later fled Iran and
left the plates and press behind in his confusion. The whole
caboodle sat in the mint at Tehran, according to some experts.8
According to Tatum, a deal was arranged in the early to
mid-'80s between VP George Bush, Panama's Manuel Noriega and the
Iranian leadership.
A sum of US$8 billion deposited in the Banco Nacional de
Panama on behalf of Colombian cocaine king Pablo Escobar was
"lent" to George Bush. Of this, US$4 billion was shipped by
plane to Iran where it was exchanged at a ratio of one good bill
for two counterfeit bills. On the return trip, the 707
aircraft's cargo container carried two shrink-wrapped pallets
containing $4 billion each. The 707 arrived at Howard/Albrook
Air Force Base in Panama where the pallets were offloaded under
armed guard of the Panamanian military. The counterfeit notes
were re-deposited into Escobar's account at the Panama central
bank. Under no circumstances could the counterfeit bills be
permitted to leave the bank vault-for fear of devaluing the US
currency with forged notes-and active steps would later be taken
to ensure this.
The other half of Escobar's "good" money was placed into the
hands of Nana DeBusia, the grandson of Guyana's first democratic
leader. DeBusia was chosen by the CIA's William Casey to
launder the massive sum into numerous bank accounts under the
joint signatures of VP George Bush and Director Casey.
The next leg of the operation was to retrieve the $4 billion
exchanged with the Iranians for the Superbills. This was helped
by the supply of military equipment, arms, ammunition and
replacement parts for weapons systems. This part of the deal was
arranged by Oliver North on behalf of the CIA's William Casey.
The results of these complex manoeuvres were twofold. On
the one hand the CIA acquired $4 billion via the arms sales, for
use in future black operations, without the need to rely on
Congressional oversight or authority. If later caught, Tatum
says "The CIA could report the source of funds as being from an
arms transaction with Iran." Some of these funds were then used
to support the Contras -- but the rest disappeared down the
ultra-black hole of the Company's covert finances.
Meanwhile, Nana DeBusia had begun laundering the remaining
$4 billion through various banks @3, including the Vatican Bank.
(Heavily involved, any beyond doubt, was Banca Nazionale del
Lavoro, BNL, an intrinsic part of Oliver North's "Enterprise" --
in reality, the OSGs of the Terrorist Incident Working Group.)
For his trouble, DeBusia was entitled to take a commission
amounting to $200 million.
The remaining $3.8 billion was then secreted in private,
numbered accounts around the globe and controlled by George Bush
and William Casey.
The operation was complete apart from some necessary
mopping-up which occurred over the following years:
1) In 1989, Pablo Escobar was targeted by an intensive
US-Colombian "War on Drugs" campaign. He fled into hiding, in
fear of his life. Eventually, in 1993, he was tracked down and
killed in a police shoot-out. A British TV documentary revealed
that the "Cocaine King" was gunned down while attempting to
escape and was probably unarmed. The campaign waged against
Escobar ensured he could not withdraw the $8 billion in
Superbills. Following his death, the quantity and quality of
cocaine shipments from Colombia immediately increased manifoldly,
giving lie to the "War on Drugs".
2) Also during 1989, Panama's General Noriega was captured
in the US invasion of Panama. Noriega was later convicted and
placed in US federal prison under constant guard to ensure his
silence.10
3) Penultimately, Nana DeBusia was indicted on 32 counts
including bank fraud and thereby effectively silenced.11
4) Earlier, in 1987, DCI William Casey died of a brain
tumour -- just days before he would have been required to attend
the Senate hearings into the Contragate affair.
According to Tatum, only one figure emerged unscathed:
GEORGE BUSH, who alone retained control of $3.8 billion in
laundered funds.
These question remain:
What did Bush intend to do with his 'black' $3.8 billion?
What was the ultimate purpose of the operation?
Perhaps it was to be used to inject financial muscle into
another, grander scheme, of which Tatum has spoken, involving
George Bush's "scope and mission" paper for a New World Order.
A copy of the "scoping" paper supplied to Tatum by George
Bush outlines the formation of a [multinational] Corporation
whose purpose is to "provide a central network of information,
analysts and strategists on an international basis in pursuit of
world order and economic stability".
The "scope" of the Corporation involves four features:
1) Centralisation of information services;
2) Analysis of data by region-specific analysts;
3) Provide recommendations based upon analysts' reports by
international experts;
4) PROVIDE INTERNATIONAL MASTER PLAN FOR WORLD GROWTH AND
ECONOMIC STABILITY.
The Corporation is to be privately owned with a board of
directors "consisting of twelve members, elected annually by the
shareholders". In addition there are to be five departments:
"Data Resources; Political Management; Economic Management;
Military Management; Environmental Management".
THE COMPLETE "BOSS HOGS" LIST
But it is in the realm of narcotics trafficking that Tatum
is most vociferous. Part 1 of this article recounted the names
of high-level US individuals, given to Tatum by Barry Adler Seal
before he was killed in 1986. Seal called this the "Boss Hogs"
List and it included senior individuals in 11 different countries
who, Seal claimed, controlled the global narcotics network.

FOOTNOTES:
@1 Interestingly, many of the early residents, including
Averell Harriman and Prescott Bush --George Bush's father-- were
strong supporters of Adolf Hitler and his National Socialist
Party prior to World War II.
Even in recent years, George Bush continued to have
unfinished work with Nazis domiciled in South America, Tatum says
-- especially while the world's eyes were turned towards Saddam
Hussein and Iraq during Desert Storm.
That, however, is another story ...
@2 NSDD-30 was originally classified "Secret". Now partly
declassified, the redacted sections assigned NSC staffer North
responsibility for "anti-terrorist operations". Including so-
called "active measures" to "deter or pre-empt terrorist attack",
this established the administrative framework for "CIA projects
aimed at killing leaders of radical Islamic organizations".
As such, it was an illegal presidential directive.
(C. Simpson, "National Security Directives of the Reagan and
Bush Administrations," Westview Press, San Francisco.)
@3 Gerald James, former Chairman of Astra Plc and one of
the principal figures in the Scott affair and arms sales to Iraq,
in "In the Public Interest" (Warner Books, 1996), reproduced an
internal company memorandum referring to the massive British-
Saudi Al Yamamah arms deal in which a sum of US$4 billion is
mentioned in connection with a bribe to Saudi Prince Bandar, a
nephew of King Fahd. The memorandum stated: "This 4 bil US was
mentioned in connection with M. Thatcher's son." Interestingly,
the sum of $3.8 billion is also mentioned in the Kerry Report
that looked into the Iran-Contra affair.
