Also, from a post I did this morning...
Check out the link here (#3). As is noted in that thread, Wilson's ex-wife shows up as having the same address as Joe, but Valerie has a different home address than Joe. Strange.
I had missed connection to Gabon before by piasa on that thread:
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.
Hat tip to piasa for this info, which gives motive.
Rock Creek Int'l is the name of Joe Wilson's company....in the SAME building as Alamoudi...a backer of Islamic terrorism...I belive he is in prison.
Wow!! Bongo!! So the Wilson's are pals with Oil for Food scandal people!
