Mena was definitely real, certainly linked to drug shipments, and most probably well known to the Little Rock elite.

The problem with the Mena tale is the same problem with the Vince Foster death -- even if there's something to it, there's no proof that would stand up in a court of law. Instead, you have to rely on verbal testimony, hearsay evidence, and looney conspiracy theory, all spun by some of the flakiest people on Earth. At the end of a very long road, all you have after all your pains is a highly circumstantial case, and your prediliction to believe it tends to follow your political alignment.

You ought to read Roger Morris's book. He is definitely a leftist, and yet presents a compelling case.

As far as Vince Foster goes, I most certainly believe that to be murder. The evidence for suicide is flimsy and ridiculous. But that has been debated at great length elsewhere on this site. So much is known for certain about that case that I believe the truth will come out one day.

Sounds like a perfect case for Larry Klayman!

Very objective and Fact Filled.

Now, why don't you tell us how looney and flakey Bill Duncan, Russell Welch, and all of the Bank Employees, Airport employees, other Police Officers that were not allowed to give their EVIDENCE and Flakey Stories to the Grand Jury that Asa Hutchinson controlled?

Mena is a credible tale and one that unfortunately will never be solved if the cynics, both on the Right and the Left, have their way. The evidence in the Ives/Henry case is not just circumstantial, the boys' autopsy report was falsified by a Clinton appointed state coroner and were most likely killed because they witnessed a drug drop-off being executed by local town officials. The only reason the Mena tale has an overload of circumstantial evidence, is because the main-steam media was not doing its job and conniving politicians have fought to keep this explosive story a cover-up. No one wants to go muck-raking if the muck involves people of one's chosen political party affiliation-which in the case of Mena, involved both Democrats and Republicans.
