Who's Really Running Post-Coup America?

" [After the Pentagon was hit on Sept 11] .... orders were given [by Cheney] to remove Daschle, Lott, Gephardt and other members of the [Congressional] leadership to a secure location outside Washington. When they arrived for the trip at the West Front of the Capitol, Gephardt [leader of the Democrats in the House of Representatives] recalls an 'unimaginable' scene: helicopters ringed by black-suited SWAT teams carrying automatic weapons, as other SWAT team members looked down from atop the Capitol. At the secure location outside Washington, there were too few phone lines for the congressional leaders. Communication with Cheney was frustrating. Coordinating with lawmakers left behind in Washington was difficult, sometimes contentious. Desperate for information, [other members of Congress] set up a conference call with their sequestered leaders. During one call, a small group of House members demanded that the speaker order everyone back for a late-day session in the Capitol as a show of defiance.... The leaders [of Congress] agitated to get out of their bunker and back to Washington, but Cheney resisted. .... We're a separate branch of government - why do we need the approval of the White House, he complained. 'Don,' the vice president replied, 'we control the helicopters.'..."
Washington Post, 27 Jan 2002

"The more invisible [Cheney] becomes, the more powerful he seems... He participates by videophone in the daily national security meeting held in the White House situation room with the president .... friends and advisers say the relationship between the two men is as crucial as ever, and still refer to Mr. Cheney as the president's consigliere...."

"When the disgruntled Saudis arrived in Texas last week [to see President George W Bush], Poppy and Cheney took over the show....On Tuesday, Poppy had lunch with the Saudi foreign minister, Saud al Faisal, and Prince Bandar in Houston. On Wednesday, Crown Prince Abdullah had lunch with Cheney."

"Judicial Watch, displaying a curiosity absent in other Americans (including the press), wants to know why Cipro was dispensed [to members of Vice President Dick Cheney's team] more than three weeks before the first anthrax attack in the United States.... How could anyone have known that, beginning on Oct. 2, letters laced with anthrax would start showing up in the mail? "

"Perhaps it is little wonder, too, that Vice President Cheney is refusing to hand over to Congress records of his Energy Task Force - records which may have contained important information related to foreign policy discussions on Afghanistan, as well as to any role played by Enron's interests in the events leading up to 11 September 2001. With his alleged previous record of controversial business dealings in sanctions-bound Iraq, the Vice President may have plenty of useful experience to draw from in attempting to cover his tracks. If so, may God bless America. And soon."

"A captured Al Qaida document reveals that US energy companies were secretly negotiating with the Taliban to build a pipeline. The document was obtained by the FBI but was not allowed to be shared with other agencies in order to protect Enron. Multiple sources confirm that American law enforcement agencies were deliberately kept in the dark and systematically prevented from connecting the dots before 9/11 in order to aid Enron’s secret and immoral Taliban negotiations.... in January 2001, Vice President Cheney allegedly reinstated the intelligence block and expanded it to effectively preclude any investigations whatsoever of Saudi-Taliban-Afghan oil connections. Former FBI counter-terrorism chief John O’Neil resigned from the FBI in disgust, stating that he was ordered not to investigate Saudi-Al Qaida connections because of the Enron pipeline deal. [Former Federal Prosecutor John Loftus] has confirmed that it was O’Neil who originally discovered the AL Qaida pipeline memo after the Embassy bombings in Africa."

"In fact, did Cheney, the former oil equipment executive, help rebuild Saddam's economic machine that now stands accused of sponsoring terrorism? Yes.... He lied. Indeed, just before election day 2000, the estimable Financial Times of London discovered that two Halliburton-owned subsidiaries sold more oil field technologies and equipment to Ol' Mr. Evil Saddam than any other U.S. corporation, pocketing some $24 million in sales. These deals helped Hussein restore his oil-production capabilities, which are used to finance the militaristic adventures that Cheney now labels 'evil.'...."
