Alex Polier -- The Kenya connection

Free Republic | 14th Feb 2004 | Free Republic

[propertius]

For those of you interested in the Alex Polier Kenya connection here is a summary (repeating some of the stuff I wrote yesterday and adding waht little new info there is):

Alex Polier was, as of 5pm Kenya time, hiding out in Nairobi. She and her fiance, Yaron (sp) Schwartzman were staying at the home of his parents Joseph and Hannah. The London Evening Standard reported last night that she was already in the UK. They were wrong, although there is a possibility she may have flown later on last night -- but I think it is more likely she was still here.

Alex and Yaron were moved from the family's palacial home in the upmarket Nairobi suburb of Lavington late last night to avoid the press. They could be anywhere in Kenya -- at the coast or on Safari.

Yaron is believed to work in Nairobi at a company called Film Struck Studios or possible Film Studios. The company is owned by daddy. He is believed to move in a circle of friends known as the "cokehead set". Now there is more than one cokehead set in Kenya, which attracts old wealth, new wealth, British Aristocracy and some of the international gliterrati.

Daddy is the chairman of an engineering company called H Young, which is owned by former cabinet minister Nicholas Biwott. Biwott is a nasty piece of work. Former President Daniel arap Moi's right hand man, a Scotland Yard enquiry named him the prime suspect in the 1990 murder of Foreign Minister Robert Ouko. He plundered the Kenyan treasury and is known here as "the Godfather", "Mr 15 percent" (the cuts he took when awarding tenders to multinational companies) or "The Total Man" (he owns Total Kenya). Daddy is also business partner of Naushad Merali, another Moi frontman, a multimillionaire and probably Kenya's richest Asian.

This would suggest our man Yaron mixes with the 20 and 30-somethings who are the children or spouses of Kenya's leading criminals. The senior members of this set are Biwott's Israeli wife Rita and his son in law Charles Field-Marshall, a controversial Kenya-based Canadian businessman.

Even close friends of Yaron say they know nothing of the relationship with Kerry -- mainly because no-one really knows Alex.

The British press are finding it difficult to track her down -- they are attempting to "doorstep" her. This is a tricky process in nairobi where houses sit on 5-acre plots, cannot be seen from the road, are protected by big black gates, alarms, electric fences, a host of security guards and their dogs.

It has not helped that the British press were also watching the wrong house.

Hope this is useful to someone out there.

Has anyone tracked down any more information on the girlfriend who has the goods on the relationship (photos, letters, etc.)? She seems to have dropped from the picture.

[kristinn]

Thanks for your reporting. My guess is this is more like an Elizabeth Ward Gracen experience than a Monica Lewinsky one.

What amazes me is that anyone would WANT to have an affair with Kerry - he is so hideous looking.

I thought the Enquirer made it pretty clear that Kerry isn't attractive to Hollywood women, that at least a couple had rejected his advances. This new person seems to have rejected him also.

So what I am seeing here is not an affair, but another Senate stalker. This would be much worse for Kerry. The dems can forgive infidelity, but they cannot accept a dweeb.

These eyewitness accounts are always difficult to deal with in FR because the format simply isn't designed to accommodate them.

FR got burned by a fake on the site reporter back in the Kosovo war. Let Drudge sort this out.

I nominate Propertius to be this scandal's QUIDAM ...

That's very DEEP.

Alex Polier's photo is published in London. Check out this link: http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2-2004071781,00.html
This is also on Drudge Sat Morning.

This is just getting started. The sex scandal stories on Kerry have been going on in Washington for 30 years. Ask his first wife.
Also, check this out to see how the Boston Globe and the NY Post deal with "freeloader" Kerry -- JFK -- Just For Kerry:

If the affair didn't occur, she, like most people in that position would immediately deny it. If the affair did occur, she, like most people in that position, would remain unavailable for as long as possible. "Book him, Dano."

Also, check out John Kerry's first wife -- Julia Thorne -- she has published two books on depression and has stated that her relationship with John Kerry -- JFK Just For Kerry -- has led her to be suicidal. Amazon sells Julia Thorne's books at this URL http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/search-handle-form/002-8990211-7661631
Could it be that Just For Kerry is a stalker? A serial date-rapist? What's the deal? Where there's smoke ... -- Let's hold Imus to his word -- a sex scandal and Just For Kerry is toast.

"Now I'm really beginning to wonder if this was a honey trap. If so, Kerry's not just a degenerate, he's monumentally STUPID. Yup, real CinC material there.."

Remember-the Enquirer has a totally devastating article about Kerry's sex life with the Hollywood startlets. This is going to be hard for him to play the "duck and cover" strategy for the next 4 weeks. The demorats have until mid-March to dispose of Kerry or Clintonize the scandal. I suspect they will go for the latter. Which means Rove will have a larger boatload of ammo to use during the demoract convention (i.e., an "intern" does an exclusive network interview during the convention about her "innocent" relationship with Kerry).

The price on e-Bay for Kerry's Vietnam Veterans Against the War book are going up. Check out this auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3587075583&category=1127 The cover of the book openly mocks the Iwo Jima Flag raising: The insides show the Washington 1971 protest in action: Keep pressing. Kerry wants us to "bring it on." Okay, let's bring it on.

You wanna know who BAD this is? Have you seen this FR thread on a story by the Boston Globe about Howie's race possibly nearing the end? Looks like the BG's in panic mode to me...

[Gritty]

Interesting story breaking here.

Surely, with all the corrution and scandal here, the Clintons must somehow be involved.

[Beck_isright]

Good thread. I would not be shocked to see Dean get payback at the Klintoons by going to the Green party. The demorats stabbed their own man in the back and between the brewing release of Intern - Hot Shots Redux and the backstabbing of the Klintonites, I could see Dean screwing them. Which means of course the rat convention will be more entertaining that Joe Namath drunk on the sidelines of a Jets game with a blonde reporter.

Henry Kissinger once said "power is the ultimate aphrodisiac".

There is another old proverb that goes "money is power".

[muawiyah]

There are now THREE (3), count'em T H R E E different women identified who are in Africa, who are or were reporters, who are or were on the Kerry campaign team.

Now you tell me that's not some prior planning to throw the "newsies" off the trail!!!!

[js1138]

Henry Kissinger once said "power is the ultimate aphrodisiac". There is another old proverb that goes "money is power".

So that explains why Kerry is attracted to the women he marries, and why women aren't attracted to him.

[SauronOfMordor]

I live in Nairobi and I just dug around and made a few phone calls...

The Free Republic News Network (FRNN) has branch offices EVERYWHERE! LOL!

[CaptainK]

Is this the ex-Mrs. Kerry's memoir of her marriage?

A very interesting article about the Kerry family- worth getting the one day Salon pass to read.

Sorry, who are the three? Do any of them have names?
