It can be said that the # 2 in any office is the REAL controller of things… Think Big-time Dick tater' Cheney, or Webb Hubble (for Janet Reno) or death squad pimp, Iran Contra crook John Dimitry Negroponte under Condi Rice, Paul Wolfowitz under Colin Powell… Even more recently, (newly appointed Chicago Mob Boss), once Obama's C of S / Rothschild handler, Rhambo Emanuel under cousin Barry… Or the King of second fiddles, George H.W. Bush under Ronald Reagan! (GHWB has continued to handle every president since! He has called Bill Clinton his "son", and have recently been spotted going through the back door of the Obama White House with his son Jebby in tow)

We could go on and on in this vein, but suffice to say; we are always interested in who gets the #2 spot in any dept in government.

PANETTA AND CARTER
Today it was announced that Ashton Carter would be appointed as Deputy dog at the Pentagon under Leon Panetta.

Just a few months back we published a scathing review of Mr Panetta here at Deadlinelive.info Though we were no fans of Mr Gates, (It was swell of him to stand up against the Libyan war) Panetta is a 1000 times worse. Worse than Rummy? Is anyone? maybe. Panetta is a UN boy and a Global Warming hawk who is in the rear pocket of WWF head Prince Phillip (who wants to rid the planet of 80% of you "useless eaters" … So I do protest!

To Recap on Neon Leon Panetta:
Panetta is a MAJOR shill for L.O.S.T. (UN law of the Sea Treaty which gives the world's oceans to the NWO to tax and regulate)

Panetta CIA Enforcement Arm of CFR

Leon Panetta's life has been devoted … not the USA but to the United Nations. He has been a "fanatic" for "world government" and a HitlerianNew World Order. Leon Panetta devoted himself to the election of Nelson Rockefeller who had written the Future of Federalism. In which Rockefeller writes …"I think the answer is some free-world super-national being with the power to tax …"

While Panetta worked for Nelson Rockefeller in California … it was mass murdererTed Bundy who was Nelson Rockefeller's point man in Seattle.

Leon Panetta worked for Mayor John Linday (Scroll & Key Yale) read America's Secret Establishment. Lindsay went to Saint Paul's School. Lindsay was a member of the CFR … so Leon Panetta was right at home the "destroy American Sovereignty crowd".

Lindsay's school is part of the Ten Schools Admission Organization a recruiting ground for the administrators of the New World Order.Saint Paul's School include J. P Morgan Jr., Vanderbilts, future Skull & Bones members, Kennedys and J. Peter Grace son of the incorporator of the Council on Foreign Relations.

Panetta has been co-opted from the beginning bythe super rich and the "international community" … Whole of His Life.

Their goals are his goals.

Today, Leon is chair of the Pew Commission on Oceans, this smiling lawyer is the plausible "local" face to impose Rockefeller United Nations plans. The "harmonization" of local communities using Agenda 21 in preparation of the North American Union was prepped by the (SSP) Security and Prosperity Partnership .
Open borders were designed to cause racial conflict, lower middle class wages and the smothering of America until the people call for marshall law and peace. The kind they have in Cuba.

This designed to be implemented after the present on going murder of the USA. It was the Rockefeller's who donated the very land the UN headquarters sits on.
Leon is also affiliated with the Knights of Malta"

CONCLUSION:

Leon Panetta is not a greenhorn. He has been working for the illuminati for years. His choice as CIA chief (and now DOD Head), for those who see through the smokescreen… It should come as no suprise.

But the reason we write you today is to alert you to who Leon's 2nd in command is, and build our case against him "eventually" running the Pentagon.

MEET ASHTON CARTER
Carter was previously the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology & Logistics.

Here he was touted as the man who saved us money by being " instrumental in several aspects of former Defense Secretary Robert Gates' cost-cutting program, and has closely monitored efforts to remedy troubles with the F-35 fighter program." OH REALLY? Was Carter asleep at the wheel or complicit in robbing the American taxpayer blind? Recent reports of Pentagon waste are STAGGERING!
Here's a jaw-dropping example reported by Bloomberg.

A U.S. contractor in Iraq overbilled the Pentagon by at least $4.4 million for spare parts and equipment, including $900 for an electronic control switch valued at $7.05, according to a new audit. Based on the questionable costs identified in a $300 million contract with Dubai-based Anham LLC, the U.S. should review all its contracts with the company in Iraq and Afghanistan, which total about $3.9 billion, said Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction Stuart Bowen. "The audit found weak oversight in multiple areas that left the government vulnerable to improper overcharges," Bowen wrote in the forward to his 30th quarterly report, released today. The contract in question was funded with a combination of money earmarked for Iraqi Security Forces and Army operations and maintenance funds. Among the "egregious examples of overbilling" by Anham were $4,500 for a circuit breaker valued at $183.30, $3,000 for a $94.47 circuit breaker and $80 for a small segment of drain pipe valued at $1.41.

Those mark-ups are absurd, but I wonder whether this example from the story is even worse.

In other cases, Anham used subcontractors to purchase items that could have been bought directly from the manufacturer at lower prices, the report said. When Anham was asked to buy a loudspeaker system to alert warehouse employees of any danger, it chose not to buy the system directly from the manufacturer at the retail price of $44,615, the report said. Instead, Anham sought bids from subcontractors and paid a company called Knowlogy $90,908. That price included $20,000 for installation, even though the system setup meant little more than wheeling it into place and plugging it in.

Heck of a job Brownie…. For this Carter gets promoted? Apparently…Having friends in high places is more important than effectiveness in the job.

Here are some of Carter's connections and affiliations:

Dr. Carter was also Senior Partner at Global Technology Partners ( GTP's partners have collectively served as Secretary of Defense, Director of Central Intelligence, Deputy Director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, Deputy Secretary of Defense (three times), Deputy Secretary of Energy, Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition and Technology (three times), Assistant Secretary of Defense (three times), Chief Information Officer of the Department of Defense, and Director of the National Reconnaissance Office.) GTP has been linked to the Rothschild banking family and has at least some suspicious connections to the events of 911!

He is a member of the Board of Trustees of the MITRE Corporation and the Advisory Boards of MIT's Lincoln Laboratories and the Draper Laboratory.
The Mitre Corporation (which generally styles its own name as "MITRE" in all caps) is a not-for-profit organization based in Bedford, Massachusetts and McLean, Virginia. It manages Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDCs) supporting the Department of Defense, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts on behalf of the Federal Judiciary.

How's that for Power? Whoa!

Was MITRE Corp. The Trojan Horse of 9/11?

MITRE's Bedford headquarters are located near Boston's Logan airport where the two planes that struck the World Trade Center supposedly originated. Bedford lies directly under the flight path of westbound flights leaving Logan.

MITRE developed the technology "to aid controllers in solving problems while keeping aircraft close to their route, altitude, and speed preferences." Shearman was unable to say why the MITRE technology apparently failed on 9/11.

Indira Singh, an "IT consultant" who previously worked on a Defense Advanced Research Project, and who was employed by J.P. Morgan on 9/11, in risk management, pointed to MITRE's role at the FAA during the 9/11 Citizens' Commission hearings in New York last September.

"Ptech was with MITRE Corporation in the basement of the FAA for two years prior to 9/11," Singh said. "Their specific job is to look at interoperability issues the FAA had with NORAD and the Air Force in the case of an emergency. If anyone was in a position to know that the FAA â€" that there was a window of opportunity or to insert software or to change anything â€" it would have been Ptech along with MITRE."

Carter worked directly with Philip Zelikow who oversaw the 911 CFR Whitewash Commission that covered up the truth about the events of 911. Together they authored: "Catastrophic Terrorism: Elements of a National Policy" This report was a product of the "Catastrophic Terrorism Study Group" which was headed by: Ashton B. Carter and John M. Deutch, and project director is Philip D. Zelikow. Together they helped to set US terrorism policy that ran a muck during the Bush Admin. So…. Carter is on board with Corporations that helped cause 911, then crafts policy with co conspirators to provide a "solution" for 911. That's covering ALL your Hegelian bases folks!
* Carter was a consultant to Goldman Sachs on international affairs and technology matters.
* He has been a member of the Aspen Strategy Group, the Council on Foreign Relations
* He is a Rhodes Scholar (for British Global Domination)
* He was on the board at the Rockefeller University.
* Dr. Carter received bachelor's degrees in physics and in medieval history from Yale University.

ALSO his bio touts affiliations with: the American Physical Society, the International Institute of Strategic Studies, the Advisory Board of the Yale Journal of International Law, and the National Committee on U.S.-China Relations (During the Clinton years when he was Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Policy he likely aided in the selling or trading of nuclear, and High tech secrets to China). Carter was a head honcho in the area of keeping WND's and Nukes out of the hands of "Terrorists" uh oh.

He was on Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice's International Security Advisory Board from 2006-2008! (so much for Change, right Barry?)

Dr. Carter served as a member of the Defense Science Board (DARPA) from 1991-1993 and he advised on the creation of the Department of Homeland Security.
He was chairmanship of NATO's High Level Group, and participated in the negotiations that led to the deployment of Russian troops as part of the Bosnia (NWO) "Peace " Plan Implementation Force.

For his unwavering service to the NWO super Elite, Dr. Carter was twice awarded the Department of Defense Distinguished Service Medal. For his contributions to intelligence, he was awarded the Defense Intelligence Medal. ....

[Jan Klimkowski]

Though we were no fans of Mr Gates, (It was swell of him to stand up against the Libyan war) Panetta is a 1000 times worse.

Noone is a thousand times worse than Iran-Contra player and Bush Crime Family consigliere Robert Gates.

Gates' stance on Libya is purely part of elite squabble over tactics. It's got nothing to do with moral principle.

Here's former senior CIA analyst Ray McGovern's insider view on Gates, published in November 2006:

I have known Robert Gates, whom the president has picked to succeed Rumsfeld, for 36 years, starting when Gates was a journeyman analyst in CIA�s Soviet Foreign Policy branch which I headed.

(snip)

Character Counts; So Does Integrity

Those of us who had front-row seat to watch Gates� handling of substantive intelligence cannot overlook the manner in which he cooked it to the recipe of whomever he reported to. A prot�g� of William Casey, President Ronald Reagan�s CIA Director, Gates learned well from his mentor. In 1995, Gates told the Washington Post�s Walter Pincus that he watched Casey on �issue after issue sit in meetings and present intelligence framed in terms of the policy he wanted pursued.� Gates followed suit, cooking the analysis to justify policies favored by Casey and the White House.

The cooking was consequential. Among other things, it facilitated not only illegal capers like Iran-Contra but also budget-breaking military spending against an exaggerated Soviet threat that, in reality, had long since passed its peak.

I was amused to read in David Ignatius� Washington Post column this week that Gates �was the brightest Soviet analyst in the [CIA] shop, so Casey soon appointed him deputy director overseeing his fellow analysts.� He wasn�t; and Casey had something other than expertise in mind. Talk to anyone who was there at the time (except the sycophants Gates co-opted) and they will explain that Gates� meteoric career had mostly to do with his uncanny ability to see a Russian under every rock turned over by Casey. Those of Gates� subordinates willing to see two Russians became branch chiefs; three won you a division. I exaggerate only a little.

To Casey, the Communists could never change; and Gorbachev was simply cleverer than his predecessors. With his earlier training in our Soviet Foreign Policy branch (and a doctorate in Soviet affairs no less), Gates knew better. Yet he carried Casey�s water, and stifled all dissent. One consequence was that the CIA as an institution missed the implosion of the Soviet Union�no small matter. Another was a complete loss of confidence in CIA analysis on the part of then-Secretary of State George Shultz and others who smelled the cooking. In July 1987 in the wake of the Iran-Contra affair, Shultz told Congress: �I had come to have grave doubts about the objectivity and reliability of some of the intelligence I was getting.�

Iran-Contra

And well he might. In the fall of 1985, for example, there was an abrupt departure from CIA�s analytical line that Iran was supporting terrorism. On November 22, 1985 the agency reported that Iranian-sponsored terrorism had dropped off substantially in 1985, but no evidence was adduced to support that key judgment. Oddly, a few months later CIA�s analysis reverted back to the pre-November 1985 line, with no further mention of any drop-off in Iranian support for terrorism.

It could be more than coincidental that the US illegally shipped Hawk missiles to Iran in late November 1985. When questions were raised later about this zigzag in intelligence, Stephen Engelberg of the New York Times quoted senior CIA official Clair George saying this was �an example of a desperate attempt to try to sort of prove something was happening to make the policy [arms to Iran for hostages] look good, and it wasn�t.�

Also in 1985 Gates commissioned and warped a National Intelligence Estimate suggesting that Soviet influence in Iran could soon grow and pose a danger to US interests. This provided additional �justification� for the illegal arms-for-hostages deal with Iran.

More serious still was Gates� denial of awareness of Oliver North�s illegal activities in support of the Contra attacks in Nicaragua, despite the fact that senior CIA officials testified that they had informed Gates that North had diverted funds from the Iranian arms sales for the benefit of the Contras. The independent counsel for the Iran-Contra investigation (1986-93), Lawrence Walsh, later wrote in frustration that, despite Gates� highly touted memory, he �denied recollection of facts thirty-three times.�

In 1991, when President George H. W. Bush nominated Robert Gates for the post of Director of Central Intelligence, there was a virtual insurrection among CIA analysts who had suffered under his penchant for cooking intelligence. The stakes for integrity of analysis were so high that many still employed at the agency summoned the courage to testify against the nomination. But the fix was in, thanks to then-chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, David Boren and his staff director, George Tenet. The issue was considered so important and the damaging evidence so abundant, however, that thirty-one Senators voted against Gates when the committee forwarded his nomination. Never before or since has a CIA director nominee received nearly as many nays.

A highly respected former CIA station chief, Tom Polgar, offered the following at the 1991 Gates nomination hearings:

�His proposed appointment as director also raises moral issues. What kind of signal does his re-nomination send to the troops? Live long enough, your sins will be forgotten? Serve faithfully the boss of the moment, never mind integrity? Feel free to mislead the Senate�Senators forget easily? Keep your mouth shut�if the Special Counsel does not get you, promotion will come your way?�

�Fixing� Intelligence Can Be Career Enhancing

Gates is the one most responsible for institutionalizing the politicization of intelligence analysis. He set the example and promoted malleable managers more interested in career advancement than the ethos of speaking truth to power. In 2002, it was those managers who then-CIA Director George Tenet ordered to prepare what has become known as the �Whore of Babylon��the October 1 National Intelligence Misestimate on weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. He instructed them to adhere to the guidelines set by Vice President Dick Cheney in his Aug. 26, 2002 preemptive speech and to complete it in three weeks (in order to force a congressional vote before the mid-term election). To their discredit, senior sycophants saluted and produced the most fraudulent�and consequential�NIE in the history of American intelligence.

Those commenting on the Gates nomination so far seem largely unaware of this history. The exception is Rep. Rush Holt (D-NJ), who worked in the State Department�s intelligence bureau and now sits on the House Intelligence Committee. Pointing out Gates� reputation for putting pressure on analysts to shape their conclusions to fit administration policies, Holt called the nomination �deeply troubling� and stressed that the confirmation hearings �should be thorough and probing.� Too bad Holt is not in the Senate.

Confirming Gates Must Not Be a Slam Dunk

There are early indications that Sen. Carl Levin (D-MI), ranking Democrat on the Armed Forces Committee, intends to acquiesce in the maneuvering of the White House�s cat�s paw chairman of that committee, Sen. John Warner (R, VA), to rush the nomination through the lame-duck Senate before a new Congress is in place. At times in the past Levin has shown considerable courage, but so many years in the minority seem to have dulled his edge, prompting him to acquiesce in compromises to which he would have been allergic in the past�the unsavory deal with Sen. Lindsay Graham (R-SC) on the rights of �detainees,� for example. Not to mention Levin�s sudden cave-in, in the aftermath of 9/11, on funding for the National Missile Defense program, which he earlier recognized as obscenely expensive, of unproven reliability, and of dubious utility given the changing nature of the threats to our security.

Whether Levin steps up to the plate on Gates will be an early indication of whether the election has implanted any spine into Democrats�whether they still have it in them to act like winners. Levin has had a running dispute with the Bush administration regarding what he calls a lack of candor (the correct word is �lies�) in sworn testimony on Iraq. If he allows the Gates nomination to sail through without a thorough investigation of Gates� record, he will be giving a nihil obstat to the practice of no-fault dissembling before Congress.

In 1991, Levin joined 30 other Senators in voting against Gates� confirmation as CIA director because Gates was a good deal less than candid about his role in Iran-Contra and unconvincing in his denials that he had politicized intelligence. But Levin said this week that he wanted to give Gates a �fair and fresh look; a lot of time has passed.�

Fair enough. If Levin wants to know what has happened in the interim, he can start with the fresh, documentary evidence adduced in award-winning investigative reporter Robert Parry�s recent article, �The Secret World of Robert Gates� [http://www.consortiumnews.com/2006/110906.html]. Parry�s article contains unique and highly damaging information on Gates� role in the original �October Surprise��the successful Republican effort to prevent the release of the 52 American hostages imprisoned for 14 months in the US embassy in Tehran until Ronald Reagan had won the election in 1980�and on Gates� involvement in the illegal sale of weapons, including cluster bombs to Iraq in the early eighties.

Another excellent source of updated information on Gates� involvement in the secret arming of Saddam Hussein (yes, the same Saddam) and the Iran-Contra scandal is the transcript of an interview of Robert Parry and former CIA analyst Mel Goodman on Democracy Now, November 9th. [http://www.democracynow.org/article.pl?s...09/1444242

Gates knew about many of Oliver North�s illegal activities, but under oath, he just couldn�t remember. And Gates has been able to escape close scrutiny of his own involvement in extralegal and illegal activities largely because there are far too few journalists with the enterprise and courage of Robert Parry. While all the above-mentioned escapades are significantly damaging, the corruption of intelligence should be placed front and center, given the huge role this played in 2002 in deceiving Congress in to voting for an unnecessary war.

Whether or not Levin is fully aware of it, Gates is the archetypal intelligence fixer, employing all the tricks of that dishonorable trade�including memory loss, when caught. I find myself wondering if Levin still has it in him to stand up and say, �Never Again.� Even before he formally becomes chair of Armed Services, Levin has the power to require a serious vetting of Gates� past behavior and to make �Never Again� stick.

At a hearing on his first (abortive) nomination to be CIA director in 1987, Gates denied that he had tailored intelligence to please his superiors, adding, �Sycophants can only rise to a certain level.� Whether that was an unintentionally prophetic observation or not now depends largely on Carl Levin and his newly empowered, but apparently not yet emboldened, fellow Democrats.

Ray McGovern works with Tell the Word, the publishing arm of the ecumenical Church of the Saviour in Washington, DC. He was a CIA analyst from 1963 to 1990, and in 2003 co-founded Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS).
