From: "Mike Ruppert" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I'm breaking a huge story on Ed Wilson in the next issue of FTW which will mail December 10th (special issue) Shackley and Bush are scared shitless. Wilson suddenly has them and some of the most powerful lawyers and judges in the country by the absolute short hairs. Now think real hard boys and girls, who stand to benefit of Ed Wilson takes down Bush Shackley, and a whole bunch of powerhouse attorneys and federal Judges appointed by Reagan and Bush down for perjury and subornation? I just did an hour interview on tape with Wilson's attorney. I'm working on the story right now.

If I remember correctly, he had a house close by to langely and there was a dirt path on which he travelled back and forth to the company offices. His house was used as sort of an "off the books" privatized, proprietary front for a lot of activities including courier work, training and debriefing, etc. The mystery is why was wilson cut loose to take a dive, ending up in prison for life? When he was selling the c4 to libya for eatsco, was he doing it on his own, or if not, did he take too much share? Why hasn't he spilled all the beans--does he have family that was threatened? Was he told that he would be let out when a new global nazi regime takes over early into the milenium? ----- Original Message ----- From: Dave <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Cia-Drugs <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, November 29, 1999 9:44 PM Subject: [CIA-DRUGS] Nugan Hand > From: "Dave" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > > > Dave Hartley > http://www.Asheville-Computer.com/dave > > The Questions Whose Answers are Secret > > In 1987, Jonathan Kwitny prepared a list of questions about the Nugan Hand > affair for the US Senate Intelligence Committee when the Contra scandal was > being investigated by both the Senate and the Congress.
