And I had not made the connection to Gabon until this morning when doing some research.
Wilson (as Ambassador to Gabon) had/has connections to the Gabon Chief of State, Omar Bongo, who was the chief African ally of the French oil company TotalFinaElf, a major beneficiary of the Oil-for-Food bribes. Prior to the Iraq War, they had a contract with Saddam's regime worth an estimated 12.5 to 27.0 billion barrels of oil reserves. Also he had connections via the Middle East Institute and Rock Creek, both of which are Saudi controlled.
If you will note post #21 by piasa in the thread I linked above, Wilson's wife Jacqueline was also apparently a lobbyist for Bongo and it seems Wilson was pretty chummy with Saddam's weapons buyer, having dinner with him on the eve that Kuwait was invaded in 1990, per post #22. That makes it very clear that there are connections to oil-for-food. No wonder Wilson can afford his lifestyle.
A bit of interesting trivia that I picked up while researching...Brewster, Jennings and Associates (the CIA front) was named after Brewster Jennings, who served as President of the predecessor to Exxon Mobile Corp., Esso. The Iraq Petroleum Company, before it was nationalized, was owned by BP, Shell, Esso, Mobil and CFP and they reportedly made huge profits manipulating oil prices.
It appears we have our very own Galloway. Great research, ravingnutter.
