April 21, 1995, the Clinton Administration sent 5 or 6 gunmen to the Office of International Financial Services, US State Department. They threatened and intimidated my supervisor, Mr. Brynes, and ordered him to “fire” me. I asked for my whistleblower defense lawyer and my Union Representative. These were denied. When I realized the gunmen were not government men but possibly Arkansas hoodlums (or former State Police from Little Rock) I slipped out a little-known doorway, down an obscure hallway, passed the office of the Canadian lawyers, and made it out to the street without being shot. Sen. Larry Craig, who worked with me on the human rights of Christians in Saudi Arabia, was set-up by undercover cops in the Denver Airport and they pretended he was a sexual pervert using the bathrooms because he moved his foot…he denied the allegations but his career in public service was destroyed completely and he has disappeared somewhere out West…Sen. Craig was Chairman of the Senate Republican Policy Committee and a threat to Clinton’s agenda…I have told the same story for years and have been contacted by media many times but no stories are allowed to be published…Tom Lippmann, a reporter for The Washington Post, interviewed me and my lawyer for a lengthy period. When no article appeared I asked him why…Lippman said he was trying to get permission from the Clinton appointees in the US State Department…after that, he stopped returning my calls…I have also been contacted by the BBC…after much study I figured out the BBC is an arm of MI-5 or MI-6, the British intelligence agencies that operate out of the BBC…you’ll never read about that in TWP or the NYT!
