Ron Brown's Body: How One Man’s Death Saved the Clinton Presidency and Hillary’s Future

Ron Brown's Body: How One Man’s Death Saved the Clinton Presidency and Hillary’s Future
Cashill, Jack

The mysterious death of Bill Clinton's Commerce Secretary Ron Brown has long aroused suspicion among those who are aware of the unscrupulousness of Slick Willie, Hillary, and their cohorts. In this stunning new book, investigative reporter Jack Cashill fearlessly answers the questions about Brown's death that have been consistently stonewalled and ignored by the Clintons: Why did his plane crash? Why did the White House suppress an investigation of his death? What was the purpose of Brown's trade missions? And what were the larger forces that caused the Clintons to seek international cash through avenues that led Brown to Bosnia in the first place?

For the two most desperate years of the Clinton presidency (1994-6), Ron Brown was at the nexus of all of Slick Willie's unseemly, unsavory machinations -- making him the classic "man who knew too much." In Ron Brown's Body, Cashill (the co-author of the acclaimed investigative blockbuster First Strike: TWA Flight 800 and the Attack on America) follows the Clintons' corrupt trail from Hawaii to Arkansas to Oklahoma to Washington to China, unraveling a maze of deceit, greed, and raw political power and shedding new light on Brown's shadowy role as Clinton fund-raiser.

Consequently, the strange and shocking story of his untimely death exposes the seedy depths of the most corrupt administration in American history.

Hillary's presidential aspirations make Ron Brown's Body much more than just a book of history. This book is a harrowing glimpse into the inner workings of one of the most powerful political machines still operating today -- and irrefutable proof that a Hillary Clinton presidency would be an unmitigated disaster for the United States of America. Jack Cashill reveals:

•The forces that shaped Ron Brown's character and ambition -- and how he came to play such a major role in what may have been the most serious scandal in American history

•The three people most directly responsible for Brown's demise (plus surprising details of what Brown was doing with them)

•Why Brown grew fretful and anxious about the way Clinton was treating him in the months before his death

•The Reno Factor: the strange role that Attorney General Janet Reno played in the Ron Brown saga

•Slick Willie: why he and Hillary were, in his own words, "getting sick and crazy" in mid-1995

•How Brown began to change in late 1995, stepping back from his hitherto no-holds-barred pursuit of filthy lucre

•The tempestuous one-on-one meeting Brown had with Bill Clinton in the winter of 1996

•Jesse Jackson: how he was persuaded to drop his calls for an investigation into Ron Brown's death

•The strange suicide of the maintenance chief responsible for the navigation system of the airport where Brown's plane was supposed to land

•Inexcusable journalistic complacency that left innumerable nagging questions unanswered about Brown's death

"A straightforward, no-nonsense account of Ron Brown's life and death from someone who understands that politics is a matter of interest, not conspiracy." -- Kenneth R. Timmerman, author of The French Betrayal of America and Shakedown: Exposing the Real Jesse Jackson

"Cashill . . . finds himself in the middle of a genuine murder mystery . . . Smart, insightful, and finally shocking, the great untold story of our time and perhaps the best book yet written on the Clintons." -- Joseph Farah, editor and CEO of WorldNetDaily.com

However, the military establishment remained unconvinced. When the Clinton administration proposed that primary control over the export of commercial satellites be transferred from the State Department to Ron Brown's Commerce Department, the military balked. In a memo dated September 22, 1995, the Pentagon and U.S. intelligence agencies are on record as rejecting the administration's plan to transfer authority to Commerce. Also opposed was Secretary of State Warren Christopher.(6)

Attacks on the Commerce Department
Early in 1995, in what some might regard as a preemptive strike to undermine Ron Brown's position at the Commerce Department, "Allegations arose ... concerning improprieties related to [Brown's] financial transactions. In particular, there were media reports that Secretary Brown ... failed to disclose required information about First International, a company he owned with a business associate, Nolanda S. Hill."(7) In July 1995, an independent counsel was chosen to investigate these charges. As the independent counsel probe got underway, additional allegations would soon be leveled against the Commerce Secretary.
That same year, congressional Republicans would draft legislation to dismantle the Department of Commerce. The Republicans would fail in this endeavor, but not for lack of trying. According to Gary Hufbauer, a trade expert, "The force of Brown's personality was one of the major factors that saved the department."(8)
On March 14, 1996 -- in defiance of the military and intelligence agencies -- the Clinton administration transferred control of satellite sales from the State Department to Ron Brown's Commerce Department. This may have been the fateful decision that sprung the CIA hawks into action. Twenty days later Ron Brown would lose his life.

Shortly after this happened, Clinton had Brown give formerly protected sensitive information to Clinton's Chinese friends (donors to his campaign which got him elected, highly illegal) which enabled them to use computers to aim nuclear missiles at the United States.

On April 3, 1996, Commerce Secretary Ron Brown and 34 others were killed when their Air Force Boeing 737 crashed into a mountainside in Croatia. One day after the crash, before any real investigation had begun, Defense Secretary William Perry told the Associated Press that the plane crash was "a classic sort of accident that good instrumentation should be able to prevent." The Air Force soon agreed and, in its ensuing investigation, determined that the tragic event was due to navigational error. Since that time, certain anomalies have come to light regarding the crash:

Ron Brown was found with a .45-inch inwardly beveling circular hole in the top of his head, which resembled a gunshot wound. Despite this suspicious wound, the Air Force medical examiners decided not to order an autopsy.

Normally in plane crash investigations there is a two step process. The Air Force first determines whether the crash was the result of an accident, hostile fire, sabotage, or mechanical failure. In Ron Brown's case, this determination (called a safety board) was skipped. Instead, the Air Force immediately proceeded to the second part of the investigation, where only accident and legal issues are considered.

The Air Force reported that a navigation beacon had been stolen from the airport sometime before the crash. This led some to speculate that the pilot may have been intentionally drawn off course and into the mountainside by a spurious beacon.

Three days after the the crash, Niko Jerkic -- the man who was responsible for maintaining the airport's navigational aids -- died by gunshot. This was ruled a suicide. Jerkic's untimely death meant that investigators did not have a chance to question him. The bullet points are quite damning.
