Roy Cohn
MORE ON BARBARA WALTERS' FORMER BOYFRIEND, ROY COHN
"The revelation that Cohn was involved in paedophile rings was not a new disclosure.
In 1992 John W. De Camp published a book called ‘The Franklin Cover-Up’ in which he described a number of child abuse rings in the US including one which furnished children to political VIPs run by the CIA ...
"In the 2006 edition at page 179 the author described the role of Robert Gray, a child trafficker from the Watergate era. "Gray and a CIA agent called Edwin Wilson were involved in blackmail operations which exploited vulnerable children.
"According to the former CIA officer and whistleblower, Frank Terpil, CIA blackmailing operations involving paedophiles were intensive in Washington at the time of the Watergate scandal. Wilson ran one of them ...
"According to De Camp, the blackmail operation had been set up by Roy Cohn ...
"This revelation helps makes sense of Cohn’s exploitation of the boy from Kincora.
"The latter home was part of a paedophile network exploited by MI5 and MI6 for a variety of nefarious reasons including the collection of ‘compromat’ and blackmail material.
"MI5, MI6 and the CIA were – and remain – allies. There was probably co-ordination of all sorts of blackmail operations during the Cold War to control politicians and senior NATO military figures ...
"All of this raises the strong possibility that the CIA has files on MI5 and MI6 operations in NATO member states, including the UK, that involved the exploitation of children.
"While there is little or no possibility that MI5 and MI6 will ever admit their role in the Kincora scandal, it is possible that a CIA file may yet emerge to expose the truth.
"The horrific Marc Dutroux child murder and sexual abuse scandal in Belgium involved a vice ring which was probably linked to a similar blackmail operation designed to control and reward influential Belgian figures and ensure they supported NATO.
"The publication of De Camp’s book in 1992 also raises the strong possibility that Trump has known about Cohn’s role as a child trafficker for decades."

BARBARA WALTERS AND ROY COHN
"Donald Trump’s mentor, Roy Cohn, was a paedophile who abused boys on both sides of the Atlantic, including one from Kincora Boys’ Home, Richard Kerr, whom he selected in Belfast and had taken to him in Venice for sexual abuse ...
"Kerr’s revelations about Cohn, Fraser and others in the US as well as their links to Europe, chime darkly with the research about child-abuse networks undertaken by Whitney Webb.
She asserts that Cohn acted as a sexual blackmailer as part of a Cold War network of intelligence services which acted in concert with elements of the mafia. Her insights would certainly help explain how Cohn evaded the attention of the police for his abuse of cocaine, minors and his exploitation of male prostitutes ...
"Webb has unearthed evidence which she presents as that of a longstanding sexual blackmail network, set up by the Mafia and later involving Cohn alongside US and other intelligence services.
"In more recent times this group has connections to Jeffrey Epstein ...
"The link between Cohn and the Kincora scandal shows that the paedophile network which existed in Northern Ireland did not merely overlap with the vice rings in Britain but extended across the Atlantic Ocean ..."
'Cohn and Trump'. vanityfair.
"There are multiple indications that Epstein may have made recordings of former President Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew and other VIPs ... Imagine the control they may have exercised over Bill Clinton during his eight years in the Oval Office [BARBARA WALTERS GOT THE FIRST BIG INTERVIEW WITH ALLEGED 'MOSSAD HONEY TRAP', MONICA LEWINSKY]. ...
"Meanwhile, what control do the master blackmailers now exert over the British Establishment via incriminating tapes of Prince Andrew with minors? ..."

ReplyDeleteAnother Liar politician exposed
ReplyDeleteRepublican Congressman-elect George Santos, who admitted to making up facts about his biography, was given a dressing down by former presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard during a Fox News interview.
Gabbard, a former Democrat who joined the conservative news network as a paid contributor in November, confronted Santos on Tuesday in what was his first televised appearance since admitting to “embellishing” his resume.
Other lawmakers have lied to the American people in the past and have gotten away with it, but Santos had been telling “blatant lies,” she said, before asking, “Do you have no shame?” The man, who is set to represent the 3rd congressional district of New York, tried to deflect the blame.
“Tulsi, I can say the same thing about the Democrats,” he said. “Look at Joe Biden. Joe Biden has been lying to the American people for 40 years. He’s the president of the United States. Democrats resoundingly support him. Do they have no shame?”
Gabbard said the issue is not about party politics but about Santos’ relationship with his constituents and whether they can trust anything he says on their behalf. The congressman-elect said critics are “nitpicking” at him and that he is more than a “facade.”

Ireland’s membership of the EU ‘a mistake’
ReplyDelete…
“[The] constitutional revolution by stealth [has] made us citizens of a Federal EU, effectively a ‘United States of Europe’ …
“[In] Ukraine?
“The Irish Constitution says that Ireland should stand for ‘the pacific settlement of international disputes’.
“Yet we are currently assisting one side militarily while imposing economic sanctions on the other, for that is what EU policy demands of us as it subordinates Europe’s interest to that of the US in the latter’s proxy war with Russia, down to the last Ukrainian …”
