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.

Thank you. don't worry about it, the truth be told I've bitten a few heads off in my years here too. ;-)

The important thing is getting the story right, and that is both of our goals.

Now this from the Telegraph:


'This won't go away. What happened is much nastier than is being reported'
By Adrian Blomfeld in Nairobi and Andrew Alderson
(Filed: 15/02/2004)

Alex Polier, the twenty-four year old journalist who could end Senator John Kerry's hopes of becoming the next president of the United States is alleged to have had a two-year affair with the front-runner for the Democratic nomination. Last night the rumours were in danger of becoming a full-blown scandal.

"This is not going to go away," one American friend of Miss Polier said yesterday. "What actually happened is much nastier than is being reported."

This story is "getting legs". Good.

Look, I'm not disputing your contention that 30 years ago this chick was "European hot" - heck, she must have had something going for her if Johnnie Heinz was willing to hand over the keys to that $2 Billion safe.

But as a human being, Maria Teresa Thierstein Simoes-Ferreira Heinz Kerry is one manifestly evil witch.

Dude, if you haven't read it yet, you simply MUST read the FrontPageMag exposé:

Teresa Heinz Kerry: Bag Lady for the Radical Left

These are evil people that she's bankrolling with Heinz's money.

[mosel-saar-ruwer]

Yeah, I just saw that over at Lucianne.

[60 Miles North]

One look at her and I knew she was an arrogant, entitled bitch.
She also has the potential to be a loose cannon if she ever got as far as the White House.

I am certain she is more intelligent than DOG Face Kerry, I cannot imagine how she could ever be attracted to him. He must have moved in at a vulnerable time after Heinz was killed.

[GunnyB]

Dude, if you haven't read it yet, you simply MUST read the FrontPageMag exposé

This expose by Frontpagemag is one of the most enlightening and damning discoveries I've seen regarding F'ing Kerry and his wife. I agree - these are indeed evil people she is bankrolling - ANSWER, and the anti-war stuff. Given her connections in the business world, finance (Soros, et. al.), and internationally, she could make hitlerly look like a piker by comparison. Hitlerly is motivated by greed and a lust for power - this b*tch already HAS those things.

The age of this young woman is stated as 24 in the Telegraph article. Our local Philadelphia Daily News paper says she is a 1995 grad of Great Valley HS in Malvern, PA. That would make her 26 or 27.

Are they morphing several women into one? And the picture from the Telegraph website looks very different from the one published in the SUN (London) that I saw on Lucianne's website.

Any thoughts?

60 miles north, I'm posting to you because you made a comment that Teresa was a bitch; my memories of her when she was our late Senators wife, are different.

Teresa Heinz, when she was married to John Heinz III, was pretty much thought of as a low-key, devoted wife and mother of 3 boys. Theirs was a true love match, and she was totally devastated when he died in that plane crash. (very near our home and kid's school)

She was a very beautiful woman, (Still attractive, IMHO).

John Heinz III was what I would call a moderate environmentalist.

From what I have read, she was very lonely, and was hoping for companionship. She vaguely knew Kerry as you would expect, both men being senators. She met up with him at an environmental conference in Rio in 1992 or 93. Not too certain of those dates. He pursued her, because he said he was impressed with her presentation, and found her an intelligent conversationalist. They married in 1995.

I don't remember anything remotely radical about her, when she was married to John Heinz. I've only been in PA since 1979, and he was from the western part of the state, but those are my recollections. I guess she has changed.

Do my recollections sound right to you,thesummerwind, since you said you knew both Teresa and John Heinz?
