REALAUDIO

Revis­it­ing Daniel Hop­sicker, this pro­gram high­lights a num­ber of sto­ries he has cov­ered over the years, all of which deal in some capac­ity with the air traf­fic through South Florida. Begin­ning with his inves­tiga­tive report­ing into the flight train­ing schools and air­lines impli­cated in the 9/11 attacks, Daniel has pur­sued evi­den­tiary trib­u­taries lead­ing to and from those insti­tu­tions, uncov­er­ing a wide vari­ety of crim­i­nal activ­i­ties. In addi­tion to pow­er­ful crim­i­nal syn­di­cates and ele­ments of intel­li­gence ser­vices from the U.S. and other coun­tries, Daniel has uncov­ered machi­na­tions of pow­er­ful fas­cist orga­ni­za­tions, Islam­o­fas­cist orga­ni­za­tions in par­tic­u­lar. Much of the dis­cus­sion explores Daniel’s more recent sto­ries, with extem­po­ra­ne­ous sup­ple­men­tal con­ver­sa­tion bring­ing some of his older work into recent con­text. Daniel and Mr. Emory “wing it,” pro­vid­ing infor­ma­tive and enter­tain­ing programming.

Pro­gram High­lights Include: Dis­cus­sion of a recent Mad­cow arti­cle detail­ing the use of a plane placed at the dis­posal of the McCain cam­paign; dis­cus­sion of the use of that plane to evac­u­ate promi­nent Saudis from the United States in the imme­di­ate after­math of 9/11; a syn­op­tic account of a Mad­cow story set­ting forth the crash of a CIA-connected drug plane con­nected to the 9/11 attacks; the death in the crash of that drug plane of a promi­nent Venezue­lan exec­u­tive of Smart­matic, the par­ent com­pany of Sequoia Vot­ing Sys­tems; review of the links between Smart­matic and Hugo Chavez; brief analy­sis of a Guyanese pilot con­nected to the milieu of Mohamed Atta and the 9/11 hijackers.

1. In addi­tion, the pro­gram touched on a num­ber of recent arti­cles writ­ten by Daniel. With elec­tion year upon us, it is inter­est­ing to take stock of the fact that a plane placed at the ser­vice of McCain’s cam­paign by one of his many lob­by­ists was used to ferry Saudi roy­als out of the United States in the imme­di­ate after­math of 9/11. Tellingly [and pre­dictably] the major media focused on the pos­si­bil­ity that McCain may have exe­cuted a “soft land­ing” on the lob­by­ist, rather than on the air­craft and its past passengers.

2. Sup­ple­ment­ing Daniel’s cov­er­age of the intelligence-connected drug traf­fick­ing milieu through which Atta and com­pany infil­trated South Florida, the broad­cast ref­er­enced an arti­cle about a Guyanese pilot linked to the drug traf­fick­ing and [appar­ently] ele­ments of the CIA.

3. A fas­ci­nat­ing devel­op­ment con­cerns the death of Jose Alfredo Anzola-a Venezue­lan national with links to the cor­rupt Smart­matic vot­ing machine com­pany. [Smart­matic is the par­ent com­pany of Sequoia Vot­ing Sys­tems.] This indi­vid­ual died in the crash of a CIA-connected drug plane. In FTR#576, we looked at the links of this milieu to both Venezue­lan pres­i­dent Hugo Chavez and eco­nomic ele­ments linked to the Under­ground Reich through some of the ele­ments of the old I.G. Far­ben com­plex. The crashed drug plane had links to ele­ments of the milieu involved in the 9/11 attacks, includ­ing evi­den­tiary trib­u­taries run­ning in the direc­tion of Wally Hilliard, the owner of Huff­man Aviation.
