ENRON'S DIRTY LITTLE INTELLIGENCE SECRET: WHO CONTROLS ITS
INTELLIGENCE GATHERING SYSTEM NOW THAT ENRON HAS COLLAPSED

NEWS BRIEF: "Enron's Secret Arm", Intelligence, DEBKA-NET WEEKLY,
Issue 45, January 18, 2002.

"Enron, the Houston-based energy giant that crashed with an earth-
shaking thud amid political scandal and criminal charges, ran one of
the most sophisticated and powerful intelligence-gathering networks
in the world, according to DEBKA-Net-Weekly's intelligence sources.
In its heyday, not so long ago, hardly a political development or
military maneuver anywhere on earth escaped Enron's attention. Its
intelligence stations, from strategic points around the world, tipped
off Houston headquarters to hidden events and developments in the
making, well before they surfaced in the media. Key operatives of
this autonomous system confided to DEBKA-Net-Weekly on condition of
anonymity that the quality of intelligence was such that it became a
primary tool for shaping the company's trading tactics and
strategies."

In all of the media hype about how Enron fell into bankruptcy, why
the company fell, and who profited versus who lost, no one has even
hinted that Enron possessed such a unique capability to gather
intelligence on a daily basis from all around the world! Of course,
Industrial Espionage has been a heavy priority in certain national
and international companies for a very long time. American,
Japanese, and Chinese companies regularly employ large numbers of
internal assets in order to steal technology that they do not have,
in order that they may compete with those companies who do have this
technology. Industrial Espionage has been with us for a very long
time. Is this the "powerful intelligence-gathering network" to which
DEBKA-file is referring, above?

It seems that it started as Industrial Espionage.

"As Enron's trading business grew, eventually accounting for 25
percent of all US energy trades, its directors demanded, and got, the
best round-the-clock intelligence information on a broad array of
subjects. As one of its purveyors put it, 'Our intelligence was often
more accurate and detailed than the data available to the White
House, US intelligence agencies and the Energy and Trade
Departments'."

DEBKA-file then explained how Enron developed this intelligence
capability by defying the normal mode of operation employed by
traditional intelligence agencies. The normal method of gathering
intelligence is to employ hundreds, or thousands, of people acting as
eyes and ears, each one reporting information upon which they
stumbled, or which they had developed over a long period of time.

Enron adopted the tactic of training a small, high-quality team of
operatives -- each was compensated very well --distributed at key
points around the world. This team was divided into four or five
units, totaling no more than 25 informers scattered throughout the
world! It is incredible that this tactic would outperform the vast
intelligence services of the CIA, White House, and Energy and Trade
Departments! However, key business executives know very well that a
company can rise or fall depending upon whether the right person is
filling key position(s). Having exactly the right person in the
right position is exceedingly important.

Enron utilized this business tactic.

""They picked out the best in the business, all of them plugged into
top sources," said a senior figure employed by the energy
giant. 'Enron had an eye for superior talent and paid well. Each of
its operatives was capable of both homing in on the plums in the
intelligence pie and also analyzing their worth, together with
conclusions and prognoses. The different functions performed by an
army in most intelligence agencies were thus lumped together and
performed by a single, talented, well-paid operative. Their product,
complete with forward ramifications, was thus laid before the market
trader with great speed'."

In the world of energy and commodities trading, the company that
consistently has the right knowledge, and has it first, will emerge
the victor of individual battles, and will usually destroy its
competitors. Thus, with all the billions of dollars at stake in the
energy and commodities markets, Enron employed a superior strategy,
giving it tremendous marketplace advantage. Enron attendees at OPEC
Oil Cartel meetings were more versed on the intricate details of the
current marketplace and the individual needs of the OPEC members,
than were the OPEC ministers representing their countries!

DEBKA-file tells us how superior this intelligence was:

""The Enron network was arguably one of the most focused and fertile
intelligence operations run in recent years in the United States."

ABRUPTLY CHANGING DIRECTIONS

However, in early June, 2001, top Enron executives decided on an
abrupt change in focus in their vast intelligence
networks. ""Whereas before, the directors in Houston demanded
peepholes chiefly on political and economic trends and changes, they
now evinced a sudden and equal interest in military affairs ...
Enron's intelligence team was required to devote as much or more
energy to the unearthing of military trends and alliances affecting
Turkey, India and Israel and Moscow's relationships with the former
Soviet Central Asian republics." [Ibid., Emphasis added]

Why did Enron make this sudden, and tremendously important change?
DEBKA-file noted that, in late May to early June, 2001 , Enron top
executives had caught the "scent that the Bush administration was
building up to some military initiatives that would be bound to
impinge on world markets."

This time period was over three full months before the terrorist
attacks of September 11. Yet, Enron discovered that the Bush
Administration was already planning "military initiatives that would
be bound to impinge on world markets"! This information is very
interesting to those of us who know that the plan to produce the New
World Order calls for the creation of a global threat by which all
nations of the world could be drawn together into a global
dictatorial system.

Listen again to the superior foreign military intelligence Enron's
small, highly-focused group of operatives were consistently
delivering to their executives in Houston. "Our intelligence was
often more accurate and detailed than the data available to the White
House, US intelligence agencies and the Energy and Trade Departments."

"Enron directors wanted to know the instant that Iran carried out
military exercises along its Gulf coast, Saddam deployed troops in
western Iraq, India poured reinforcements onto the Line of Control in
Kashmir, or China transferred armored brigades and air force units to
the northwest province of Xinjiang.." [Ibid.]

"The energy giant, as far back as January and February 2001, was
briefed steadily on Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda, their movements,
activities and plans for devastating terror attacks in the United
States. The company's executives were given a near-global picture of
the spread of the terror network's cells through Afghanistan,
Pakistan, North America, the Balkans, the Middle East, the Persian
Gulf and the Asian and African continents. They were warned of the
Egyptian Islamic Jihad's integrated operational role in al Qaeda and
the high position occupied by its chief, Ayman Zuheiri, alongside bin
Laden ... Enron knew exactly what the Americans were targeting in
February 2001 when they executed bombing strikes in the Baghdad area:
the Chinese fiber optic equipment."

This information is HUGE!

Now, Enron was, indeed, beginning to encroach upon the prerogatives
of the CIA and the White House. From my days in US Army
Intelligence, I can tell you that the US government jealously guards
access to foreign intelligence targets. I can imagine their total
dismay and their sheer anger at the sudden intrusion of Enron
intelligence operatives in matters that have always been the
exclusive territory of US Intelligence! From that moment on, Bush
Administration officials might have looked upon Enron in a wholly
different manner. From that moment on, the Bush Administration may
have embarked upon a path that would eliminate Enron from foreign
intelligence on the one hand, while delivering these capabilities to
US Government control on the other hand.

Enron probably unwittingly signed its own death warrant by intruding
into such sensitive intelligence areas.

TOP SECRET CRYPTO SECURITY CLEARANCE

When Enron began to gather foreign military intelligence of such high
caliber and up-to-date by the minute as described above, their
executives might not have paused to consider the total National
Security ramifications of their actions! You see, this intelligence
is exactly what US intelligence organizations are daily gathering.
When I was in US Army Intelligence in Okinawa during the Vietnam War,
we were gathering just this type of information; furthermore, US law
strictly controls how foreign military intelligence is gathered,
handled, and distributed, and by whom. The US security clearance
required to have access to this kind of intelligence is called "Top
Secret Crypto ".

Thus, the Enron executives and their global operatives, were
gathering, handling, and distributed the kind of intelligence that US
law regards as being very sensitive, and worthy of the highest
protection. Enron was handling the kind of vital information that
men have been murdered, assassinated, or have been given life-long
jail sentences for not properly handling and/or safeguarding this
type of information!

Enron probably could not foresee that they had just made a mortal
enemy of the CIA and the White House, even though they had given tens
of millions of dollars to the campaign coffers of both the Republican
and Democrat parties. Enron could not have foreseen that the US
Government would have probably set in motion a plan to bring Enron
down and to either shut down its foreign intelligence capabilities or
seize them for government use.

Their capabilities in the area of military and diplomatic
intelligence of foreign countries -- especially those of our enemies -
- opened a HUGE hole in the tight control of such intelligence. I
can tell you from experience that the US Government would react
quickly and decisively to close this intel hole!

Did the Bush Administration attempt to contact Enron to tell them how
very serious this matter truly was? Undoubtedly, yes. Did our
government threaten Enron to an inch of its life to get them to
voluntarily "cease and desist" in this matter of gathering foreign
intelligence? Again, I cannot conceive that the government would not
do try to get Enron to quietly and immediately disband their
activities.

If Enron was warned, why did they not do so? Why did they persist to
the very end, in early December, 2001? The answer is probably
multifaceted:

First, Enron was convinced that obtaining this type of military
intelligence gave them such an edge over the competitors in the
marketplace of Energy and Commodities that to discontinue their
operation could very prove to be their demise.

Secondly, Enron was probably aware that the US Government would not
want to take them to court to convict them of violating US laws
relating to the gathering, the analyzing, and distribution of foreign
intelligence because of the secrets that were bound to come out
during an open trial. Additionally, Enron could afford extremely
excellent lawyers, who could tie US lawyers up in court for a very
long time, causing an even greater chance of intelligence leaks.

Thirdly, Enron intelligence might have become so good that they
knew "where all the bodies were buried". In other words, Enron
lawyers might just let some information "slip out" that they knew
would highly embarrass the US government.

Fourthly, Enron had paid millions of dollars of contributions to both
Democrat and Republican officials in the White House and the
Congress. Perhaps they believed this past support would provide them
with a deep enough reservoir that they could resist the angry US
intelligence community.

HOW TO BRING ENRON DOWN

Since Enron was a multi-billion dollar company, with far-flung assets
that rival those of some countries in the world, how do you bring
them down, without anyone sensing the hand of the government in the
background? Why, your target must have a secret weakness, unknown to
the average citizen, but wholly known to the government. This secret
weakness must be of such a nature that a significant, aggressive
action by some unseen force could send it crashing down in a way that
would seem to be either accidental or brought about by market
forces.

But, the hand of the US government could not be seen.

Enron did have a significant weakness, did it not? In fact, it had
two significant weaknesses.

The first of Enron's hidden weakness was financial, which would have
made it even easier to destroy the company quickly. Few people
realized that Enron was hiding huge blocks of liabilities from the
eyes of the investment community by creating shell companies into
which they were shuffling their debt. Since these outside companies
did not have any visible tie to Enron, no one in the investment
community realized how deeply in debt Enron was and how greatly it
was affecting its real picture of profitability. Both Enron
executives and government officials knew that, were such information
made public, investors would sell, sell, and sell their Enron stock
some more, driving the company into receivership almost immediately.

The second Enron weakness was that it had held contracts on foreign
soil, and was depending upon those countries to pay the bill
according to the signed agreement in place. Any foreign government
that owed Enron a lot of money could be secretly persuaded by the
White House not to pay. This is one of the oldest Illuminist tricks
in the book and is highly effective.

Enron did fall, and great was the fall of it. Furthermore, stories
have emerged that Enron executives did seek government assistance,
believing their earlier generosity to politicians in both Congress
and the White House would pay off in this moment of extreme financial
peril, only to be turned down cold.

Let us review some pertinent articles now; we shall highlight key
dates in bold:

ENRON'S "CREATIVE ACCOUNTING" SCHEME

NEWS BRIEF: "Hidden Numbers Crushed Enron: 'Partnerships Shielded
$600 Million Debt", by Peter Behr, washingtonpost.com, January 12,
2002.

"Creating the partnership [Chewco] enabled Enron to keep about $600
million of debt off its books. It helped ensure that paper profits
from rising shares of Enron stock held by a related partnership
called Jedi could still be counted as earnings by Enron. And it was
an example of instances where some favored Enron executives made
multimillion-dollar profits from such entities. Enron now
acknowledges that the partnerships were used improperly, inflating
the company's financial reports that investors -- including thousands
of Enron employees -- relied on in deciding to buy or sell its stock.
That, and other major accounting errors that Enron disclosed in
November , crippled public confidence in the company, pushing it
toward its Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing Dec. 2."

Enron hid its enormous liabilities inside paper shell companies,
called "partnerships" above. This allowed Enron to show ever-
increasing profits to its investors. This kind of "partnership"
arrangement is not illegal, but it surely is unethical. When cash
flow began to be restricted, Enron could no longer meet its payments
on its liabilities. Further, once investors discovered this
little "accounting magic", they began selling Enron stock in droves.

Just making the accounting magic public information was a powerful
factor in pushing Enron into bankruptcy.

"The SEC will want to know what [Enron] executives knew, when they
knew it and whether they should have known it earlier than October
2001," said Gregory S. Bruch, a former lawyer for the Securities and
Exchange Commission. "They also will be taking a very hard look at
the actions of the board, its audit committee and accountants."
[Ibid.]

These hidden partnerships formed Enron's financial Achilles Heel.

ENRON-INDIA FACTOR

NEW BRIEF: "Clinton 'Sweetheart Deal' sped up Enron's collapse:
After investing $1 billion in Indian plant, Lay couldn't get state
utility board to pay", by Paul Sperry, WorldNetDaily, January 18,
2002.

"WASHINGTON – A so-called "sweetheart" deal between Enron Corp. and
India – brokered with the help of Clinton administration officials
during controversial trade junkets in the mid-'90s – ultimately
soured and sped the energy giant's collapse, analysts say. After
investing more than $1 billion to help build a huge power plant near
Bombay, Enron had problems last year getting paid for power generated
by the plant – even after sources say former President Clinton
lobbied Indian officials on Enron's behalf during his April visit to
India. Desperate, Enron chairman Kenneth L. Lay on Sept. 14 fired off
a letter to Indian Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee threatening
legal action to recover claims of up to $5 billion related to the
Dabhol Power Co. [sic]."

If the Bush Administration truly wanted to bring Enron down in order
to stop them from gathering sensitive military intelligence, what
better way to accomplish this goal than to bring severe diplomatic
pressure upon India to not pay its bill to Enron! India depends upon
the United States for a wide variety of aid, including the type of
military aid designed to maintain its military technology edge over
Pakistan. India depends upon both the United States and Israel for
military high technology. If India were ever to go to war with
Pakistan again, she would be desperate for the technological edge
that her current connections with Washington and Jerusalem now
provide her. Furthermore, in any shooting war, India would
desperately need resupply of spare parts and ammunition for her high-
technological military machine.

Thus, America heavily influences India.

However, the Bush Administration also holds a draconian lock over the
government of Pakistan, does it not? After the 9/11 attacks, Bush
officials began to put a tremendous amount of pressure upon Pakistan
to completely back our war on terrorism. Pakistan acted against its
own interest in allowing American forces to use its bases and to back
our effort with the full weight of the Pakistani diplomatic
machinery. Pakistan's own population heavily backed Osama bin Laden
as did the Pakistani intelligence apparatus. Pakistan's dictator
laid his neck on the guillotine in order to support American efforts
in Afghanistan. American pressure was so intense that Pakistan acted
against her own national interests by supporting America's war in
Afghanistan.

Thus, America heavily influences Pakistan.

In the late 1770's, Mayer Amschel Bauer, later named Rothschild,
developed the strategy of controlling both sides in a multi-national
conflict. Rothschild accomplished this control of nations by lending
enormous sums of money to many of the European nations. If one
nation decided to not pay Rothschild what they owed him, he would
simply put pressure on other nation(s) to threaten war against the
nation who was not paying. This tactic worked very well, and gave
rise to the current global plan to produce the New World Order.

The key is to control both sides of the conflict, to control both
nations.

In this conflict, American interests control both India and Pakistan,
just as the Illuminati loves to do.

TIMELINE OF PERTINENT EVENTS

January - February 2001 -- Enron is gathering both economic and
military intelligence. Their intelligence is so good they know
inside information in the Middle East, including why America was
targeting the Iraqi fiber optic equipment that the Chinese had
provided. Enron further "knew Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda, their
movements, activities and plans ... a near-global picture of the
spread of the terror network's cells through Afghanistan, Pakistan,
North America, the Balkans, the Middle East, the Persian Gulf and the
Asian and African continents. They were warned of the Egyptian
Islamic Jihad's integrated operational role in al Qaeda and the high
position occupied by its chief, Ayman Zuheiri, alongside bin Laden."
[Ibid.]

Enron stock was trading at $80 per share.

April, 2001 -- "... five months before al Qaeda's suicide attacks in
New York and Washington, Enron's intelligence team transmitted
exclusive data on al-Qaeda's undercover terror operatives and cells
inside the United States, pointing to fundamentalists planted in US
military and intelligence agencies." [Ibid., Emphasis added]

While this report states that Enron's intelligence team transmitted
exclusive data on al-Qaeda's terrorist plans, and even located Muslim
Fundamentalist plants within US military and intelligence agencies,
it does not say to whom this data was transmitted, or to whom it was
relayed. If Enron did not share this exceedingly sensitive
information with the CIA, it was probably in violation of US law. If
Enron knew of Muslim intel plants within US military and intelligence
agencies and did not tell US authorities, the company was clearly in
violation of US law.

But, if Enron did inform US authorities of their discoveries, they
would then have to answer embarrassing questions as to how they
discovered this data. If Enron refused to answer these questions,
the CIA would investigate the company's activities and would have
discovered the extensive nature of Enron's intel capabilities. I
would think that Enron decided not to tell anyone in the US
government, because they recognized the sensitive questions that
would follow.

This above report also does not say whether this sensitive
information was transmitted via secure means, nor if strict
safeguards were followed that would ensure that the information did
not fall into the wrong hands. After all, this was information the
CIA gathers, and protects with its life and with our public laws.

Late May - Early June, 2001 -- Enron executives make the fatal
mistake of ordering its agents to stop gathering intel about economic
and business matters, so they could concentrate on military
intelligence. Now, Enron has become a competitor to the CIA.
Furthermore, with the September 11 anniversary looming close [Read
NEWS1541], the Bush Administration might have been close to
apoplexy. How could they make sure that no one in Enron spill any
information, or learn of any information, which might be embarrassing
to the US government? Every operative, every executive, of Enron was
totally outside the control of the CIA, and they could talk to
whomever they wanted, about whatever subject they wanted. The CIA
had to consider Enron a ticking time bomb that threatened our
government's global plans to achieve the New World Order.

September 11, 2001 -- The attack on the World Trade Center and the
Pentagon confirmed Enron's greatest fears and understandings. In
response to the attack, President Bush ordered American troops into
Afghanistan; further troops and air planes and naval forces were
committed to the Persian Gulf. Enron was absolutely correct in their
stated belief in early, 2001, that Bush was about to commit US forces
in a manner that would dramatically affect business and trading.

September 14, 2001 -- Lay sends a hotly worded letter to the Indian
Prime Minister, demanding payment of the past due bills.

October 16, 2001 -- Enron reported a $638 million loss, the first of
a series of damaging reports ["Enron Asked Help From Cabinet
Officials", by David Milbank and Peter Behr, washingtonpost.com,
January 11, 2002]

October 28-29 and November 8, 2001 -- Enron CEO Lay calls Bush
official, Treasury Secretary O'Neill, to see if there was any way the
Federal Government could arrange a federal bailout package. Later,
Lay called Commerce Secretary Evans, probably with the same plea.
Since Lay was a heavy contributor to the Bush campaign, even to the
point of being named a "Bush Pioneer" [Ibid.], he probably expected a
more sympathetic hearing than he received. The answer, was
emphatically, "No"!

Lay's main concern when he talked with Evans was that Moody's
Investor Service was contemplating downgrading Enron's stock to junk
bond status. This action would let the cat out of the investor's bag
concerning Enron's "accounting magic", and would almost immediately
ruin the company.

November 8, 2002 -- Financier Robert Rubin, former Secretary of the
Treasury under President Clinton, had arranged for a financial rescue
package to be assembled. The deal was done, but would take a few
more weeks to be completed. If Moody's downgraded Enron stock before
the rescue package was signed, sealed, and delivered, the entire bail-
out plan would go down the tubes.

But, Enron was saved, if Moody's could be persuaded to hold off their
announcement. Bob Rubin put in a discreet phone call to Treasury
Undersecretary Peter Fisher, with whom he was well acquainted. If
the Bush Administration had the least bit of interest in saving Enron
from collapse, and saving all those investors, and saving the US
economy the shock of such a huge bankruptcy, all Fisher needed to do
was to make one phone call to Moody's.

But, Fisher absolutely refused.

November 28, 2001 -- Moody's does downgrade Enron stock, forcing the
company into nearly junk bond status. Investors fled. Stock values
imploded.

December 2, 2001 -- Enron filed for Bankruptcy.

December 13, 2001 -- Pakistani Muslim militants, with some ties to Al-
Qaeda, attack the Indian Parliament, killing five terrorists and a
number of Indian security guards. India immediately threatens war
with Pakistan, and began to move tremendous numbers of forces to the
Kashmir border, along the so-called Line of Control. Pakistan
reciprocated, all the while decrying any knowledge of, or complicity
in, the December 13 terrorist attack The world recoiled at the
thought of war between India and Pakistan, since both have nuclear
weapons. Both sides said they would resort to nuclear war, with
India being the more aggressive.

As India's numbers of troops reached 1,000,000 men, China became
alarmed, and began to move significant numbers of troops to their
border with Kashmir. At this point, all three possible combatants
possessed nuclear arms.

Between November 28 - December 2 , Enron's executives had to be
frantically searching for a way out of this morass. Enron needed
cash, and needed it yesterday! They probably leaned on every company
and country who owed them money. Undoubtedly, India received a
frantic call. Enron CEO Lay must have threatened India with every
possible weapon in his arsenal, threatening to call in every IOU from
every politician who took "campaign funds" from Enron. One news
report even indicated that Lay had threatened to take India to the
World Court to gain payment.

Lay undoubtedly appealed to India's significant national pride..

If India suddenly seemed predisposed to pay Enron the money it owed,
the Illuminist method of preventing this from happening would be some
sort of attack that would keep India on the ropes diplomatically, all
the while secretly threatening India through diplomatic channels that
she would, indeed, face war should she pay Enron back.

Of course, this is exactly what occurred. In NEWS1533, we noted all
the Illuminist occult signatures undergirding the entire 9/11
attack. We stated then that Osama bin Laden was nothing more than
the trigger man for the Illuminati. Later news reports confirmed
this, saying that bin Laden met with the CIA in July in a regional
hospital. Muslim militants, possibly Al-Qaeda, attacked the Indian
Parliament on December 13, evidently with the intention of gaining
access to the inside of the building to kill Indian elected
representatives.

India was plunged into crisis, threatening war with Pakistan unless
that country arrested the militant organizations from whom the
attackers came. From mid-December to today, Pakistan has gone the
extra diplomatic mile in trying to defuse the crisis; furthermore,
Pakistan's protestations of innocence have begun to ring true.

I have come to believe that Pakistan is, indeed, innocent of the
December 13 attack. India did not make any payments to Enron, and
that company collapsed. All of Enron's richly productive
intelligence operatives either went out of business or were
transferred to CIA control. In the mind of the CIA, a very serious
intelligence leak had been plugged. The Bush Administration simply
could not stand for a private organization to have the kinds of
intelligence capability that Enron had developed. The old World War
II adage, "Loose lips sink ships" is certainly true today, and in
this case. As the Bush Administration prepared to institute the
global response to the "artificial threat" planned as far back as
1917 to bring humanity together in the global government called the
New World Order, it could not tolerate a private company gathering
the quality kind of intelligence pouring daily into Enron
headquarters. Enron executives were not trained to keep matters
quiet. Their agents were not approved by the US government in how to
handle such sensitive matters. And, there is no evidence that Enron
executives shared the same New World Order goal as the US government.

Based upon my experience in US Army Intelligence, I believe that
Enron might have been deliberately shut down by the US government to
plug a very large, and very dangerous, breech in intelligence
security. Enron's intel capabilities threatened to destroy over 200
years of Illuminist planning for the Kingdom of Antichrist, aka, New
World Order.
