The MK-26

During the 1980s, renowned radio commentator Paul Harvey said something that I’ve quoted often to my friends. Opining about various wars and upheavals — in the Middle East, Central and South America, Northern Ireland, and Cambodia — Harvey said, “Sometimes you have to laugh, just to keep from crying.”
During this election year — while the country is at war with shadowy terrorist networks, both here and abroad — Paul Harvey’s advice seems especially appropriate. Americans have already come up with various combinations of “Berger & Ketchup” to describe the relationship between former Clinton Administration national-security advisor Sandy Berger and presidential candidate Senator John Kerry (who is married to ketchup-fortune heiress Teresa Heinz-Kerry). Adding to that, I will say that Berger’s recently-abdicated title as an “informal advisor” to the Kerry campaign is starting to look a lot like the “unofficial spokesman” on the Wendy’s Hamburgers TV commercials. (Oddly, the Wendy’s theme has shown up in another of my articles about the Flight 800 mystery.)
The recent revelation by Sandy Berger that he removed highly-classified documents from the National Archives, and then “lost” them, has numerous implications during this election season. Berger was the national-security advisor to Bill Clinton, who is the most scandal-laden president in US history. Flight 800 was destroyed in mid-air during the 1996 re-election campaign of Bill Clinton. Another high-level Clinton insider — former White House chief of staff, turned ABC-TV news analyst, George Stephanopoulos — referred to the bombing of Flight 800 on the air. With that remark — and his associated description of being inside the “other situation room” in the White House at the time of the Flight 800 disaster — a direct link was made between Clinton and Flight 800. This link was, of course, overlooked by the “mainstream” news media.
So, what does this link between Bill Clinton and Flight 800 have to do with the current John Kerry presidential campaign? Well, perhaps nothing, except thatJohn Kerry also referred to Flight 800 as a terrorist incident in a televised interview. The problem is that, with the upcoming release of the final report of the “9-11” Commission, the general public will have the opportunity to refresh their memory about the link between Flight 800 and terrorism. Having spent years on the Senate Intelligence Committee, it is now impossible for Kerry to deny that he had access to information about any link between Flight 800 and terrorist acts. Therefore, if such a link is proven, then a line can be drawn between the downing of Flight 800 in 1996 and the “9-11” attacks in 2001. Again, because of his committee experience and his televised interview, Kerry cannot now distance himself from his comments about “9-11”. Follow along: if a link is made in the public’s mind between terrorism, Flight 800, Bill Clinton, John Kerry, and “9-11”, then what is the logical result? Surely, donations to the Democratic Party and to the Kerry campaign would dry up rapidly. Therefore, it is imperative to the Kerry campaign to destroy evidence of such a link. Enter: Sandy Berger. He is a person that had intimate knowledge of high-level decisions about terrorism, and access to the records of those decisions. Now, it is public knowledge that Berger has “lost” some of those documents. Were the “lost” documents related to Flight 800? The only person that knows hasn’t talked.
What is known is that there are numerous pieces of evidence that point to the involvement of a missile in the TWA Flight 800 disaster. What is known is that President Clinton issued an executive order that was targeted to silence the Navy SEALs that were on scene at the Flight 800 debris field in the Atlantic Ocean. What is known is that the FBI was very embarrassed when news of Bureau interest in missile technology became public. (Read the portion about the Teledyne fax to Dee Muma.) What is known is that the Navy SEALs are following the Flight 800 story. What is known is that there were other terrorist plots on US soil between 1996 and 2001. What is known is that the Clinton Administration ignored warnings about Operation Bojinka, and thus paved the way for the “9-11” attacks. What is known is that Clinton wanted to cover his tracks about the probable Bojinka—“9-11” link. What is known is that Berger is a close ally of both Clinton and Kerry. What is known is that Berger removed highly-classified documents from the National Archives. What is known is that those documents were related to information examined by the 9-11 Commission about the extent of terrorist operations in America prior to 11 September 2001. (operations that apparently continue today) What is known is that Bill Clinton and his ilk will do anything to gain and retain political power. And, just recently, it became known that Operation Iraqi Freedom had more justification than Kerry has admitted.
As this article is being written, a Federal appeals court is in session in Massachusetts. The topic is the secrecy over autopsy reports of the Flight 800 crash victims. As I reported last week, independent researcher and electrical engineer Graeme Sephton — vice-president of FIRO, and founding president of FOIAC — is winning so far in his lawsuit against the FBI. The suit is trying to force the Bureau to release autopsy reports, which allegedly contain proof of missile shrapnel in the bodies of Flight 800 victims. If the lawsuit is successful, then the official Clinton Administration story about Flight 800 will be blown to bits. The political explosion, however, will not only affect the elusive “Clinton legacy”. The fireball would also burn up the chances of John Kerry to become elected as President of the United States. And, with that would come the destruction of any potential pardons of criminal charges for culpability in a Flight 800 cover-up. And, the shrapnel from this explosion would also shred the hopes of other Democratic Party candidates, especially in Massachusetts. The timing of Berger’s revelation that he “lost” valuable documents — coming in between last week’s article about the lawsuit, and today’s court hearing — seems quite suspicious. And, the fact that the hearing is being held in Kerry’s home state certainly adds fuel to the speculation — especially considering that a Fox-TV news item mentioned the lawsuit on the Flight 800 anniversary last Saturday. It appears to me that Berger’s revelations about illegal activity are designed to take heat off Kerry, in the same way that Janet Reno’s raid on the compound outside Waco seemed timed to take media attention away from the indictment of Hillary Clinton.
Because of my own experience in the Air Force, I know that it might never be possible to determine which documents disappeared at the hands of Sandy Berger. When documents reach a certain level of classification, even the table of contents listing the documents is classified. Therefore, only people with that level of clearance, and a specific “need to know”, may be granted access to even the table of contents. Most members of the public do not realize that there are actually several layers of classification above Top Secret. If the Clinton White House did, in fact, engage in a cover-up of the shoot-down of Flight 800, then the most likely “classification authority” would have been Sandy Berger. He would have been under great incentive to hide the proof under the highest classification possible. Thus, even proof that such documents ever existed would be difficult to access.
Were the missing documents shredded, and/or burned? If so, then did Berger “fry” any records of the truth about the downing of Flight 800? (I had to make a joke about it, because, “Sometimes, you have to laugh, just to keep from crying.”)
I had heard that the fleet had been grounded, but I bow to your greater knowledge. And I also tend to agree with the missile theory you posted. The eye witness reports, the damage to the aircraft, as well as the actions of the investigators in restricting information tend to support that theory and a cover up. BTW, was the recovered wreckage of Flt. 800 destroyed? If so, was it done in a timely manner or was it rushed?
I want to know who received the documents. Friend or foe. Terrorist?
they were told to not talk about what they find.
Some did, I can tell you what they found was evidence to prove that a missle did to the deed.
There is moree evidence that a missle caused the explosion of the fuel cells than a small arc from a wire bundle. By the way
How do you get Diesel to burn? You have to compress it to a high pressure first, the compression alone will cause a larger vapor mixture to combust, but an exciter plug...a large spark plug that burns really hot and has to maintain the arc long enough to get the engine started.
A small wire arcing could not cause the little vapors in a fuel cell to explode. Note that there aren't any "hot" wires in a fuel cell. except the probe transmitters to the gauges.
We wonder what Kristen Breitweisser's band of wicked widows would have to say about this fact.
Wow, this explanation makes way too much sense. What if what was 'lost' by Berger were the documents with margin notations regarding TWA 800?
I absolutely agree with your analysis. I don't think it is related to those "incidents" because there have already been hints *made by the dems in power then* that they were terror related.
No, this is something MUCH bigger, I think.
Care to share your theories?
You're right. After the Flt. 800 investigation, it wasn't the 747 that was grounded, but rather 179 older 737s that used the same wiring design as used on older 747s. Newer aircraft don't use that design.
If it was terrorism, then it does seem odd that no terrorist group has ever claimed responsibility for it. Curiouser and curiouser.
What would be the possible reasons for an American naval vessel to take a commercial airliner down? If that were true, could it be plausible that it was a horrible accident?
Just think of the ramifications if the word got out that the Navy screwed up!
The MK-26
I agree on patterns . . . except, the very nature of accidents is that they defy patterns. Yes, usually what happens in one happens in all, but not always. Alan Pinkerton died of gangrene after biting his tongue: a Fla. delivery man was crushed under a rack of "Nutty Buddies." In the battle for Baghdad, an Abrams tank had a one-in-a-million shot hit its rear fuel cell at just the perfect angle to start an uncontrollable fire. There are things you just cannot explain, and without SUBSTANTIAL evidence of a bomb or missile, it really is at best a conspiracy theory of the worst type, because it not only requires you (not you personally) to believe that the Clinton administration officials all lied (not too hard) but that dozens, even hundreds, of trained federal employees (some of whom could make a FORTUNE by "outing" the "real story"), including good people like Jim Kallstrom, have come under horrible accusations and slander because they didn't come to the "right" conclusion as far as some Freepers are concerned.
It starts to reach a critical mass that defies belief, and, as I say, it then impugns Bush, Cheney, Rice, and every other Republican who had any ability to "find out the truth." So, like I say, I'm awaiting real evidence, not just the logic that it doesn't "seem right."
Sounds to me that it's about time that W. gets Condi to go to the Archives and start doing a bit of data-mining herself, and see what else there might be in the files around the same timeframe.
Spend a couple of days reading the archives at twa800.com.
These witnesses were dismissed. Plus, if a bomb did it, then you would see even disbursment of debris.
You can see that the debris from the object in question, remained on the trajectory even after impact, note that the divers were told to find debris away from the actual main debris sites (Navy Divers, not local salvage crews).
Here's the first thing I thought of:
If the dots can be connected .. Clinton and his Goons are in BIG trouble with the American people
If they can send Berger to jail which they can for legitmate criminal crimes; than they can surely do the same for Bill and Hillary Clinton.
