CIA and DoD Attempted To Plant WMDs in Iraq and Failed
Pentagon Whistleblower Reveals CIA/DoD Fiascos
According to a stunning report posted by a retired Navy Lt. Commander and
28-year veteran of the Defense Department, the Bush administration's assurance
about finding weapons of mass destruction in Iraq was based on a CIA plan to
"plant" WMDs inside the country. Nelda Rogers, the Pentagon whistleblower, claims
the plan failed when the secret mission was mistakenly taken out by "friendly
fire."

A DoD whistleblower details an attempt by a covert US team to plant weapons
of mass destruction in Iraq. The team was later killed by friendly fire due to
CIA incompetence. In a world exclusive, Al Martin Raw.com
http://www.almartinraw.com has published a news story about a Department of Defense
whistleblower who has revealed that a US covert-operations team had planted "Weapons of
Mass Destruction" (WMDs) in Iraq, then "lost" them when the team was killed by
so-called "friendly fire."
The Pentagon whistleblower, Nelda Rogers, is a 28-year veteran debriefer for
the Defense Department. She has become so concerned for her safety that she
decided to tell the story about this latest CIA-military fiasco in Iraq.
According to Al Martin Raw.com, "Ms. Rogers is number two in the chain of command
within this DoD special intelligence office. This is a ten-person debriefing unit
within the central debriefing office for the Department of Defense."
The information that is being leaked out is information "obtained while she
was in Germany heading up the debriefing of returning service personnel,
involved in intelligence work in Iraq for the Department of Defense and/or the
Central Intelligence Agency. "According to Ms. Rogers, there was a covert military
operation that took place both preceding and during the hostilities in Iraq,"
reports Al Martin http://www.Raw.com , an online subscriber-based news/analysis service
which provides "Political, Economic and Financial Intelligence."
Al Martin is a retired Lt. Commander (US Navy), the author of a memoir called
"The Conspirators: Secrets of an Iran-Contra Insider, " and he is considered
one of America's foremost experts on corporate and government fraud. Ms.
Rogers reports that this particular covert operation team was manned by ex-military
personnel and that "the unit was paid through the Department of Agriculture
in order to hide it, which is also very commonplace."
According to Al Martin Raw.com, "the Ag Department has often been used as a
paymaster on behalf of the CIA, DIA, and NSA and others." Accordng to the Al
Martin Raw.com story, another aspect of Ms. Rogers' report concerns a covert
operation which was to locate the assets of Saddam Hussein and his family,
including cash, gold bullion, jewelry and assorted valuable antiquities.
The problem became evident when "the operation in Iraq involved 100 people,
all of whom apparently are now dead, having succumbed to so-called `friendly
fire.' The scope of this operation included the penetration of the Central Bank
of Iraq, other large commercial banks in Baghdad, the Iraqi National Museum
and certain presidential palaces where monies and bullion were secreted."
"They identified about $2 billion of cash in US dollars, another $150 million
in Euros, in physical banknotes, and about another $100 million in sundry
foreign currencies ranging from Yen to British Pounds," reports Al Martin.
"These people died, mostly in the same place in Baghdad, supposedly from a
stray cruise missile or a combination of missiles and bombs that went astray,"
Martin continues. "There were supposedly 76 who died there and the other 24
died through a variety of 'friendly fire,' 'mistaken identity,' and some of
them---their whereabouts are simply unknown." Ms. Rogers' story sounds like an
updated 21st-Century version of Treasure Island meets Ali Baba and the Bush Cabal
Thieves, writes Martin.
"This was a contingent of CIA/ DoD operatives, but it was really the CIA that
bungled it," Ms. Rogers said. "They were relying on the CIA's ability to
organize an effort to seize these assets and to be able to extract these assets
because the CIA claimed it had resources on the ground within the Iraqi army and
the Iraqi government who had been paid. That turned out to be completely
bogus. As usual."
"CIA people were supposed to be handling it," Martin continues. "They had a
special `black (unmarked) aircraft to fly it out. But none of that happened
because the regular US Army showed up, stumbled onto it and everyone involved had
to scramble.
These new Iraqi "Asset Seizures" go directly to the New US Ruling Junta. The
US Viceroy in Iraq Paul Bremer is reportedly drinking Saddam Hussein's $2000 a
bottle Napoleon-era brandy, smoking his expensive Davidoff cigars and he has
even furnished his Baghdad office with Saddam's Napoleon-era antique furniture.
The Iraq Debacle Du Jour has evidently been extensively documented by the DIA
debriefing teams with "extensive tape recordings of interviews with the Iraqi
returnees, the covert operatives (as well as their affidavits)." Al Martin
Raw.com has dubbed this "Operation Skim Iraq."
