the

EO

in

of

> (2) Section 2-305 of Executive Order 12306.
> (3) Section 2.11 of Executive Order 12333." [By Ronald Reagan]
> Section 5 (g) of Executive Order 11905, signed by Gerald Ford on
> 2/18/76 specifically prohibited "political" assassination. Section
2-
> 305 of Executive Order 12036, signed 1/24/78 by Jimmy Carter renewed

>
> Section 2.11 of Executive Order 12333, signed by Ronald Reagan on
> 12/4/81 renewed the ban on assassinations, or conspiracy to commit

Enter

foreign
> policy.
>
> The current bill, introduced by staunch Bush supporter and
> Clinton impeachment leader Barr, indicates that the Bush
> administration is seeking to add legitimacy to the move by implying
> that Congress and the American people support the action. This can
> only mean that there is quite likely a list of people the Bush
> Administration wants to start killing fairly quickly. The
appointment
> of career covert operative and Annapolis graduate Richard Armitage
> as Deputy Secretary of State under Colin Powell only underscores the
> clear message that the Bush Administration is sending to the world
> the world.
>
> Armitage, who was denied a 1989 appointment as Assistant Secretary
> of State because of links to Iran-Contra and other scandals, served
> as Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs
> in the Reagan years. U.S. Government stipulations in the Oliver
North
> trial specifically named Armitage as one of the DoD officials
> responsible for illegal transfers of weapons to Iran and the
Contras.
> But Armitage's dirty past goes much deeper.
>
> A Vietnam veteran and graduate of Annapolis, Armitage's roots have
> been thoroughly intertwined with the likes of CIA veteran Ted
> Shackley, Richard Secord, Heine Aderholt, Elliot Abrams, Dewey
> Clarridge, Edwin Wilson and Tom Clines. All of these men have been
> directly linked to CIA covert operations, the drug trade, the
> abandonment of U.S. prisoners of War after Vietnam and/or Iran-
> Contra. Armitage has also been routinely discussed in FTW as
> a Bush-era covert functionary who has been linked to covert
> operations, drug smuggling and the expansion of organized crime
> operations in Russia, Central Asia and the Far East.
>
> In 1986 a private dispute between POW activist Ross Perot and
> Armitage went public as photos of Armitage with a topless Vietnamese
> nightclub owner Nguyen O'Rourke brought allegations of gambling and
> prostitution very close to Armitage's doorstep. The stories went
> public when TIME and "The Boston Globe" wrote lengthy stories on
the
> feud in 1986 and 1987. That scandal arose as a result of 1984
> investigations by President Reagan's Commission on Organized Crime
in
> which the photo and documentation of gambling charges and
> prostitution led directly to Armitage's close association with
> O'Rourke. Then LAPD Assistant Chief Jesse Brewer, a former
> Commanding Officer of this writer, served on the Reagan
> Commission.
>
> The 1992 best-seller "Kiss The Boys Goodbye" by former "60 MINUTES"
> producer Monika Jensen-Stevenson details Armitage's role as Reagan
> point man on Vietnam POW-MIA issues and describes why Armitage has
> earned the enmity of many POW activists. However, in a 1995
> interview with "The Washington Post", Colin Powell referred to
> Armitage as his "white son." This, notwithstanding the fact that
the
> 6 foot, balding, power-lifter, now 56, can still bench press 300 or
> more pounds and reportedly "enjoys killing."
>
> William Tyree, Special Forces Veteran who has provided much
> reliable information and documentation to FTW in the past said,
> "Armitage used to 'sit ambush' on the trails in Laos and Cambodia.
He
> liked it. Now when Powell, 'the dove,' sits down at a table with
> Armitage 'the killer' beside him the message will be that Armitage
> can reach across the table and deal with the other party on the
> spot." That message will not go unheard. [For more on Armitage we

> Progressive Review, www.prorev.com.]

> There is reason to believe that a repeal of the assassination ban

completion
