Lisa Pease on Freeport Sulphur, the Castro Plots and the Indonesia Coup
#3
In passing, and no particular shakes I'm sure, but you can also add David Ferrie into the Freeport picture - albeit in passing.

I did some digging into Freeport many years ago when I was checking out the background of one charcater in my Project Hammer investigation that absolutely does connect to Indonesia and Sukarno and a supposed deal by Kennedy with Sukarno on the latter's gold hoard. There was a lot of smoke about this alleged deal but I couldn't stand it up at the time - altough I had what was said to have been a copy of it (the so called Green Hilton Memorial Agreement, Geneve) - and so didn't include it in the story.

Still, here is the Ferrie conection:

Quote:According to the JFK assassination investigation files of New Orleans District Attorney, Jim Garrison, Freeport Sulpher's then Vice President, Charles A. Wight, flew to Cuba to set up an import deal for Cuba's Nickel ore to a Canadian front corporation. Accompanying Wight on this flight was Clay Shaw, suspected by Garrison to have been the key figure in Kennedy's slaying. Piloting the Freeport Sulphur aircraft was David Ferrie a CIA contract agent and also a key Garrison suspect.[30] David Ferrie meanwhile, frequently piloted aircraft carrying narcotics and was, as early as 1957, a paymaster to Barry Adler Seal - who would later become the biggest drug smuggler in American history. Ferrie was also a mentor to Lee Harvey Oswald.[31]

On the Sukarno connection the reason for his downfall is said to have been - or may have been - his apparent intention to use the large hoard of gold he had access to to bump start a new non aligned world bank, as briefly discussed in The Secret Gold Treaty:

Quote:What we haven't spoken of in any detail is the huge quantities of gold, platinum, gemstones and priceless religious treasures that are still stashed on Indonesia. This piece of information has been held back until last for a very telling reason. Earlier, I mentioned the 1955 meeting in the Indonesian town of Bangdung, where the world's "non-aligned" nations met for the first time as a group. Virtually unknown to contemporary history is the suggestion that Indonesia's then President Achmed Sukarno along with a number of other Third World leaders had secretly planned to establish an international non-aligned bank, to be headquartered in Jakarta and backed by gold reserves recovered from World War II treasure stashed in Indonesia. [viii] This represented, apparently, trillions of dollars in gold reserves - making the bank a serious force to be reckoned with and one, moreover, that undoubtedly was viewed as a grave threat to US interests. [ix]

We now know that Allen Dulles and company at the CIA began planning Sukarno's downfall at this same time. For example, during the 1955 elections in Indonesia, a "million dollars US got converted to rupiahs to prop up the Moslem-oriented Masjuni party and give Sukarno competition." [x]

By 1956, the Dulles brothers were fit to burst with Sukarno's grandiose plans, and Frank Wisner - the CIA's Deputy Director of Plans (for covert operations) -- typified the prevalent feeling when he said "I think it's time we held Sukarno's feet to the fire." [xi] Holding Sukarno's feet to the fire was, apparently, a droll euphemism for assassination. Despite this, the CIA's early covert efforts against "Bungkarno" resembled the antics of a Keystone Cops re-enactment society more than anything else, but success was eventually achieved and Sukarno was deposed in 1965.

With him went the idea of an independent and alternative world bank answerable to the interests of those participating non-aligned nations that had no desire to continue to be exploited by Anglo-American interests. Today, the gold that was to be used as reserves for Sukarno's bank remains stashed in various parts of Indonesia under armed guard.

My concern was (and still is) that the Green Hilton meeting document was a fake and the story contrived - which in the world of "black" gold is so commonplace as to be a real and present danger to any researcher/investigator. Anyway, it can be read about HERE. My concern with the downfall of Sukarno as related to JFK is that the dates and timing don't realy match (he continued to serve as president until 1967).

Let me finish by saying that the prospect of a group of non-aligned nations getting together to set up a banking infrastructure in competition to the post WWII Bretton Woods arrangement seems really very logical. That the Wall Street and Eastern Elite would oppose that is obvious.

Where it goes from there is anyone's guess.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
