TRULOCK CASE AGAINST WEN HO LEE DISMISSED AT REQUEST OF PRESIDENT BUSH
Judicial Watch ^ | February 12, 2002 | Press release

Bush Justice Department's Actions Protect Convicted Felon Who Violated National Security

Judicial Watch To Appeal Lower Court's Grant of Bush Administration Request

(Washington, D.C.). Judicial Watch, the public interest law firm that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, has been litigating defamation lawsuits against convicted felon Wen Ho Lee and others who, to deflect blame for their own actions, slandered and libeled Trulock. Specifically, as part of a media, public relations campaign, these defendants claimed in widely published reports that Trulock had singled Wen Ho Lee out for prosecution because he is ethnic Chinese, a variation of the O.J. Simpson defense. As a result, Trulock, a hero who blew the whistle on the biggest breach of nuclear security since the Rosenbergs at Los Alamos National Laboratories, lost his job and had his reputation destroyed.

A later government report which issued in Judicial Watch's litigation on behalf of Trulock proved that he had not engaged in “racial profiling.” Nevertheless, Wen Ho Lee recently published another defamatory book making these and other claims, further damaging Trulock, who is now destitute and penny-less. It hit the bookstores on January 15, 2002.

During discovery in the cases brought for Trulock, Judicial Watch obtained admissions from Wen Ho Lee that he had never been discriminated against, and did not even know what racial profiling is. Further, he was forced to admit that the government had valid reasons to investigate him.(emphasis added)

Nevertheless, just days before trial, which was scheduled to begin February 19, the full weight of the Bush Justice Department was used by the administration to intervene in Judicial Watch's private cases for Trulock, to argue that if the trial was allowed to proceed, that national security would be violated.

The lower court granted the Bush Justice Department's request to stop the cases this afternoon, on the eve of trial. Judicial Watch will appeal on behalf of Trulock.

Already, another case filed before the same court, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, which was dismissed, has been reinstated by the Fourth Circuit. This reinstated case involves Trulock's claims against former FBI Director Louis Freeh for violating his constitutional rights.

“The Bush Justice Department feared that if the Trulock defamation cases went to trial that it would be embarrassed for allowing Wen Ho Lee to violate national security, and for this reason conjured up a bogus argument, backed by secret CIA affidavits submitted to the court ex parte, that trying this simple defamation case would itself breach national security. This action by the administration amounts to a cover-up of the negligence of the FBI, which allowed Wen Ho Lee to pick the pockets of the American nuclear arsenal. To this day, Lee cannot account for the whereabouts of the secrets he stole,” stated Judicial Watch Chairman and General Counsel Larry Klayman.

It doesn't make any difference to these apologists here that when Clinton was the target, Judicial Watch was a collection of Heros. Now they proclaim JW and Klayman villans.

I hope it did not take you long to figure this out. Whatever bush does is 100% right even if it increases the size of the education department.

Wen Ho Lee was on the telephone numerous times with Peter Lee while Wen Ho Lee wife Sylvia was working directly for the CIA and also later for the FBI. These calls allegedly occurred while Peter Lee worked at Lawrence Livcemore Nuclear Laboratories when Peter Lee was believed by CIA agent George Carver(a contemporary of HWBush in the CIA) to have passed the US neutron bomb technology to China.

Sam Cohen the father of the neurton bomb has written several articles and been interviewed for other articles (posted on the FR) in 1999, 2000 and 2001 in which Cohen stated he strongly believes that HW Bush deliberately arranged the transfer of neutron bomb technology to the CHinese using the CIA. Cohen further alleges that the US under Bush also helped the CHinese test their neurton bomb and Cohen identified photos of sucessful neuton bomb tests which were published by World Net Daily in an article by David Breshnahan in 1999.

Peter Lee later went on to work at Los Alamos at a time when he had the opportunity for continued contact with Wen Ho Lee and while Wen Ho Lee's wife worked directly for CIA and the FBI.

Peter Lee was later convicted for transferring the US submarine radar detection technology to the Chinese and other sensitive US nuclear tecnology. The judge in the case gave Peter Lee a mild sentence (1 year in a half way house) which Senator Alren Specter bitterly complained was way to lenient. The judge in the case indicated that he had no choice because the US DOJ in the Peter Lee case refused to allow certain evidence to be entered to prove Peter Lee's guilt because the US DOJ said doing so would jeopardize national security. THis is now the same argument being used in the case involving Trulock and Trulock by the GWBush DOJ.

Theere is a very strong possibility that Cohen was right and that the CIA and HWBush helped Peter Lee transfer the neutron bomb to China at a time when Peter Lee was working with Wen Ho Lee. There is a very strong possibility that Wen Ho Lee helped transfer US nuclear design codes (legacy codes) to the Chinese with the knowledge and help of the CIA and FBI given that his wife Sylvia worked directly for the CIA nad FBI during the time of the loss of the legacy codes.

During the HWBush Vice Presidency into his Presidency, the US was transferring US missile defense tecnology and miniature nuclear bomb technology directly to the Russians at Los Alamos where Wen Ho and Peter Lee later worked and Slyvia Lee worked for the FBI and CIA at Los Alamos. Sam COhen and the father of the hydrogen bomb, Edward Teller, publicly testified before a conference of prestigeous scinteists that the US helped Russia test a Russian mini nuke at Los ALamos. The transcript of that conference has been posted on the FR by me in December 2001.

I was offered a job to work with the Russians on the US missile defense program (SDI) in the 1980s via the Reagan/Bush administration at Kirtland AF base near LosAlamos. I turned the job done when I was told I had to work with Russian scientists and when I was told the purpose was to "establish a world government" (exact words). I wrote up this story in an article I posted on FreeRepublic in June 2000 and it was broadcst on KTOK radio in OKC in early 2001. I went to the FBI and to office of the Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee,David Boren in the 1980s (when Bush was VP)and was rebuffed. The FBI did nothing except get nasty with me and created a false file on me that was later read to my Congressman by the FBI.

During the HW Bush Vice Presidency, US missile defense technology was also allegedly transferred to the Chinese at Kirtland AF Base. THe FBI was alerted to this by Army intelligence and the Army under HWBush was ignored and the FBI backed off and dropped the case. Was this because US missile defense technology was transferred to the Chinese by HW Bush and the CIA on purpose as was the US neutron bomb as alleged by Sam Cohen? This story was reported by Anthony Kimery , editor of Sources, eJournal in 1999 and was posted on the FreeRepublic then and again in Decmeber of 2001. I know Kimery and have discussed the case with him.

In my opinion there is significant evidence that suggests that GWBush and AShcroft may be protecting alleged criminal behavior on the part of the CIA and HWBush for their alleged transfers of neutron bomb, US nuclear legacy codes and US ballistic missile defense technologies to the Chinese. This would not only look bad for the CIA but would obviously be very serious for GW BUsh's father HWBush. If these transfers were not deliberate but occurrred because of failures attributable to the CIA and HW Bush it would still look very bad for HW and GW Bush and the CIA.

Once again I was told the purpose of the transfers of misile defense technology to Russia under VP HW Bush was to establish a world government. Could this also have been the motives for the possible transfers of nuclear technology to China by HWBush?

In his address to the nation on September 27, 1991, HW Bush unilaterally disarmed the US of many of its best tactical nuclear weapons including the neutron bomb at a time Cohen alleges Bush gave the neutron bomb to China. In his speech, Bush spoke warmly about the New World Order (world Government ) and the need he forsaw as former US ambassador to China to include China in the New World Order. Did this include givng CHina US nuclear technology to create a New World Order, a world government as I had been told was being done for the same reason with Russia??

Early this year GWBush unilaterally disarmed the US of almost 5000 of the US ballistic missile delivery systems without any concessions from the Chinese or the Russians, Bush also shared operational details of the US missile defense with the Russians and CHinese. DId GW Bush do this to help establish a New World Order (world government) as his father HW Bush had stated he wanted done in 1991?

Would any of the above details and allegations leak out or serious embarrassing questions they raise be asked if the Trulock case does not go to trial and Bush succeeds in having the DOJ block the case???

I am a Christian conservative Republican and a former Naval nuclear submarine officer. I worked for Admiral Rickover as a project engineer for the design of the nuclear reactor plant for the Trident ballistic missile submarine.

This story I have written about is of Biblical proportions and ramifications. In my opinion, there sadly is great evil and darkness in what has happened that will affect the entire world in a very bad way. Please save this reply so you will understand as more of the truth of this story is revealed to our nation over time. It will come in His time and in accordance with His Holy Will.

Praise God and His Son, Jesus Christ.

Thanks for your 63. I wasn't aware of a lot of the info, but I do remember Wen Ho Lee. He was guilty as sin IMO. Funny that they never found the 4000+ pages of material that he took out of the lab. None of the tapes he admitted taking either.

Hmmm, sounds like something Gore's administration would have done.

In 1999 and 2000 I stated that in many ways Bush would be as bad as Gore. Welcome to reality.

And I think that's bunk. You can't restore dignity by covering the bones with a carpet! You restore dignity by letting the truth come out and dealing with it. I just for once would like to see a politician do the right thing! They wonder why half of America doesn't vote.

HAVE THEY PUT ANYONE IN JAIL OR PUNISHED THEM? HAVE THEY BROUGHT THE CLINTONS TO JUSTICE?

You're confused. Judicial Watch has no power to bring criminal charges against anyone. The power and duty to bring the Clinton Gang to justice rests with Bush and his DOJ.

The Wen Ho Lee case is a huge embarrassment to the intelligence community--going back to 41's years at the highest levels of the government;

Maybe everybody is on the wrong trail here; maybe it would be just as embarrassing to Poppy as to the Toon.

TRULOCK CASE AGAINST WEN HO LEE DISMISSED AT REQUEST OF PRESIDENT BUSH

Just as I expect where every piece of no good trash (white or otherwise) would end up in life: nowhere. Larry Klymer-man knew full well of the dim prospect of this phony law-suit against Dr. Lee. Sad to see that Trulock actually bought into this farce, and is now left holding the bag filled to the top with steamy Klymer-man’s doodoo. What's in your bag, Trulock, dinner? LOL.

Trulock maybe a loser here, but not Klymer-man, who has taken the opportunity to fatten his wallet courtesy of a few gullible. Once again, the greater fool theory has endured.

Bush's treatment of Trulock and Linda Tripp is despicable. These two people helped get him elected by exposing the Clinton's corruption and he gives them the shaft. Sometimes I wonder if Clinton has something on Bush that scares Bush away from helping these people out.

And they can't see their own Blind Partisanship.
From excerpts that I've seen it's kind of like what is talked about in "Bias". They don't think that they have "Blind Partisanship", just like the talkings head pundits don't think that they're biased.

Post 63 personifies the close-mindedness, the inbredness, the ignorance, the paranoia, the kookyness, and above all, the monumental failure of America's educational system, which are so prevalent amongst Dr. Lee’s accusers. These wackos are never able to present anything with greater credibility than an alien sighting, or a men-in-black report on Art Bell’s radio show. Now for the funny part, they actually sincerely believe that sound-minded people should be swayed.

To address your point of “4000+ pages of material that he took out of the lab”:
1. I’m glad you used “material” intead of “classified secrets”,
2. because if you did, you should visit the following link at FAS.

Files in Question in Los Alamos Case Were Reclassified
http://www.fas.org/sgp/news/2000/04/nyt041500.html

To sum up, the data Dr. Lee downloaded were not classified at the time of download, but were re-classified after the fact.

Maybe this is why he is overseas all the time and never stops moving.
The question to ponder though is where is he visiting and what do those places have in common...?

The absolute assaninity of Klayman's suit on behalf of Trulock is that the "intended target of the suit is the DOE."

Trulock was the DOE official who got the whole Wen Ho Lee case going in the first place on what appears to be no solid grounds whatsoever. Klayman is in fact suing himself - and he is losing it. There is no evidence.
