Suspicions confirmed

"CIA jet" cloaked in silence



By JEAN-GUY ALLARD



   The silence surrounding the CIA-linked Grumman Golf Stream II that  
crashed near Cancún Monday September 24 while carrying a cargo of  
several tons of cocaine and heroin confirms the worst suspicions. The  
total suppression of the U.S. press regarding the case beyond the  
initial report of the incident also emphasizes the similarity between  
this case and that of Ilopango, El Salvador, which featured the  
Reagan regime.

   Weeks have passed since the incident and still the military  
intelligence in charge of the investigation has abstained from making  
the slightest comment as if they know nothing of interest about the  
supposed pilot of the aircraft. They shrug off the dumb luck of the  
owner of this private jet and close the eyes to who are the real  
owners of this luxurious private jet. They pretend to know even less  
about the previous owners.

Neither have they revealed information regarding the exact  
circumstances of the mysterious "accident" that occurred in the  
forested hills of Rancho San Francisco, in the municipality of  
Tixkobob, Yucatán.
  Official sources have only remarked that the supposed consignee of  
the operation was Sinaloa cartel leader Joaquin Guzmán Loera, aka. El  
Chapo, and that the pilot, Edic Muñoz Sánchez along with two of his  
accomplices, Dante Pat Caamal and Leonel Ayala López are in custody.
  Nevertheless, it has been reported that numerous "observers" from  
various U.S. intelligence agencies appeared in Tixkobob.
  The powerful aircraft took off from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, just  
a few hours before the crash. It had spent five days in the local  
Airport before leaving Sunday September 23 heading to Rio Negro,  
Colombia, a narco- hotspot.
  Hours later it headed back toward Cancun with a new crew.
  Theoretically, the aircraft that carried out illegal CIA flights  
for many years, in particular to and from the interrogation camp in  
Guantanamo, belongs to Donna Blue Aircraft Inc of Florida, which all  
evidence indicates is a phantom company.
  Before that, the two million dollar Grumman Golf Stream II belonged  
to S/A Holdings. LLC of Garden City, New York, which leased it to Air  
Rutter International with offices in Long Beach, California and  
Farmingdale, New York.
  However, this aircraft with U.S. registration N987SA appeared on  
the European Union commission's lists of secret CIA flights that  
occurred between 2003 and 2005.
  This harkens back to May 8, 1985, when George Bush Sr, then vice  
president, was alerted by Cuban American CIA agent Félix Rodríguez  
that a C-123 plane had been brought down by the armed forces of  
Nicaragua. Hours later, the pilot Eugene Hassenfus confess to working  
for the CIA under the orders of Luis Posada Carriles, aka. Ramón Medina.

  Many years passed before U.S. reporter Gary Webb was able to  
confirm that Rodriguez and Posada directed arms for cocaine  
trafficking operations to support that Nicaragua Contras from the El  
Salvador airbase.

  These operations have been described in detail by former DEA agent  
Celerino Castillo in his book Powderburns, which documents the CIA's  
involvement in narcotics trafficking.

  The accident of the Grumman and the recent wave of violence that  
has swept the most famous Mexican beach resort have created tension  
among hotel owners who have requested that authorities take new  
security measures to protect the reputation of Cancun and their  
investments.
