The CIA is notorious in eliminating people who are perceived to
be a
threat to America . In that sense, it's not different from
the underworld.
Just how ruthless the CIA can be can be
appreciated from the shocking
admittance of a CIA top gun in the
below interview. The man reveals how the
CIA killed Dr Homi
Bhabha, one of India 's greatest ever scientist, and
Prime
Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri. The article is spine-chilling.
THE
BACKGROUND
SOURCE:
http://www.tbrnews.org/Archives/a2880.htm#004Known as "The
Crow" within the Central Intelligence Agency
(CIA), Robert T. Crowley ("Bob"
Crowley) joined the CIA at its
inception and spent his entire career in the
Directorate of
Plans, also know as the "Department of Dirty Tricks,"
Crowley
was one of the tallest man ever to work at the CIA. Born in
1924
and raised in Chicago , Crowley grew to six and a half feet when
he
entered the U.S. Military Academy at West Point in N.Y. as a
cadet in 1943 in
the class of 1946. He never graduated, having
enlisted in the Army, serving
in the Pacific during World War
II. He retired from the Army Reserve in 1986
as a lieutenant
colonel.
Bob (Robert) Crowley first contacted
journalist Gregory Douglas
in 1993 and they began a series of long and often
very
informative telephone conversations that lasted for four years.
In
1996, Crowley told Douglas that he believed him to be the
person that should
ultimately tell Crowley 's story but only
after Crowley 's death. Douglas,
for his part, became so
entranced with some of the material that Crowley
began to share
with him that he secretly began to record their
conversations,
later transcribing them word for word, planning to
incorporate
some, or all, of the material in later publications.
In 1998,
when Crowley was slated to go into the hospital for
exploratory surgery, he
had his son, Greg, ship two large foot
lockers of documents to Douglas with
the caveat that they were
not to be opened until after Crowley 's death.
These documents,
totalled an astonishing 15,000 pages of CIA classified
files
involving many covert operations, both foreign and domestic,
during
the Cold War.
While CIA drug running, money-launderings and
brutal
assassinations are very often strongly rumoured and suspected,
it
has so far not been possible to actually pin them down but it is
more
than possible that the publication of the transcribed and
detailed
Crowley-Douglas conversations will do a great deal
towards accomplishing
this.
These many transcribed conversations are relatively short
because
Crowley was a man who tired easily but they make
excellent reading. There is
an interesting admixture of shocking
revelations on the part of the retired
CIA official and often
rampant anti-social (and very entertaining) activities
on the
part of Douglas but readers of this new and on-going series
are
gently reminded to always look for the truth in the jest!

JOURNALIST GREGORY DOUGLAS (GD):I am a man of sorrows and
acquainted
with rage, Robert. How about the Company setting off
a small A-bomb in some
hitherto harmless country and blaming it
on mice.
FORMER CIA OFFICER
ROBERT T CROWLEY (RTC): Now that's something
we never did. In fact, we
prevented at least one nuclear
disaster.
JOURNALIST GREGORY DOUGLAS:
What? A humanitarian act? Why, I am
astounded, Robert. Do tell me about this.
FORMER CIA OFFICER ROBERT T CROWLEY: Now, now, Gregory,
sometimes we
can discuss serious business. There were times when
we prevented terrible
catastrophes and tried to secure more
peace. We had trouble, you know, with
India back in the 60s when
they got uppity and started work on an atomic
bomb.Loud mouthed
cow-lovers bragging about how clever they were and how
they,
too, were going to be a great power in the world. The thing is,
they
were getting into bed with the Russians. Of course,
Pakistan was in bed with
the chinks so India had to find another
bed partner. And we did not want them
to have any kind of
nuclear weaponry because God knows what they would have
done
with it. Probably strut their stuff like a Washington nigger
with a
brass watch. Probably nuke the Pakis. They're all a bunch
of neo-coons
anyway. Oh yes, and their head expert was fully
capable of building a bomb
and we knew just what he was up to.
He was warned several times but what an
arrogant prick that one
was. Told our people to fuck off and then made it
clear that no
one would stop him and India from getting nuclear parity
with
the big boys. Loud mouths bring it all down on themselves. Do
you
know about any of this?
JOURNALIST GREGORY DOUGLAS: Not my area of
interest or
expertise. Who is this joker, anyway?
FORMER CIA OFFICER
ROBERT T CROWLEY: Was, Gregory, let's use the past tense if you please. Name was
Homi Bhabha. That one was dangerous, believe me. He had an unfortunate accident.
He was
flying to Vienna to stir up more trouble when his BOEING 707 had
a
bomb go off in the cargo hold and they all came down on a high
mountain way
up in the Alps . No real evidence and the world was
much safer.
JOURNALIST GREGORY DOUGLAS: Was Bhabha alone on the plane?
FORMER CIA OFFICER ROBERT T CROWLEY: No it was a commercial Air
India
flight.
JOURNALIST GREGORY DOUGLAS: How many people went down with him?
FORMER CIA OFFICER ROBERT T CROWLEY: Ah, who knows and frankly,
who
cares?
JOURNALIST GREGORY DOUGLAS: I suppose if I had a relative on
the
flight I would care.
FORMER CIA OFFICER ROBERT T CROWLEY: Did
you?
JOURNALIST GREGORY DOUGLAS: No.
FORMER CIA OFFICER ROBERT T
CROWLEY: Then don't worry about it.
We could have blown it up over Vienna but
we decided the high
mountains were much better for the bits and pieces to
come down
on. I think a possible death or two among mountain goats is
much
preferable than bringing down a huge plane right over a big
city.
JOURNALIST GREGORY DOUGLAS: I think that there were more than
goats,
Robert.
FORMER CIA OFFICER ROBERT T CROWLEY: Well, aren't we being
a
bleeding-heart today.
JOURNALIST GREGORY DOUGLAS: Now, now, it's
not an observation
that is unexpected. Why not send him a box of poisoned
candy?
Shoot him in the street? Blow up his car? I mean, why ace a
whole
plane full of people?
FORMER CIA OFFICER ROBERT T CROWLEY: Well, I call
it as it see
it. At the time, it was our best shot. And we nailed Shastri
as
well. Another cow-loving rag head. Gregory, you say you don't
know
about these people. Believe me, they were close to getting
a bomb and so what
if they nuked their deadly Paki enemies? So
what? Too many people in both
countries. Breed like rabbits and
full of snake-worshipping twits. I don't
for the life of me see
what the Brits wanted in India . And then threaten us?
They were
in the sack with the Russians, I told you. Maybe they could
nuke
the Panama Canal or Los Angeles . We don't know that for sure
but it
is not impossible.
JOURNALIST GREGORY DOUGLAS: Who was Shastri?
FORMER CIA OFFICER ROBERT T CROWLEY: A political type who
started the
program in the first place. Bhabha was a genius and
he could get things done
so we aced both of them. And we let
certain people there know that there was
more where that came
from. We should have hit the chinks too, while we were
at it but
they were a tougher target. Did I tell you about the idea
to
wipe out Asia 's rice crops? We developed a disease that would
have
wiped rice off the map there and it's their staple diet.
The fucking rice
growers here got wind of it and raised such a
stink we canned the whole
thing. The theory was that the disease
could spread around and hurt their
pocketbooks. If the Mao
people invade Alaska , we can tell the rice people
it's all
their fault.
JOURNALIST GREGORY DOUGLAS: I suppose we might
make friends with
them.
FORMER CIA OFFICER ROBERT T CROWLEY: With the
likes of them? Not
at all, Gregory. The only thing the Communists understand
is
brute force. India was quieter after Bhabha croaked. We could
never get
to Mao but at one time, the Russians and we were
discussing the how and when
of the project. Oh yes, sometimes we
do business with the other side.
Probably more than you
realize.
JOURNALIST GREGORY DOUGLAS: Now that
I know about. High level
amorality. They want secrets from us and you give
them some of
them in return for some of their secrets, doctored of
course.
That way, both agencies get credit for being clever.
FORMER
CIA OFFICER ROBERT T CROWLEY: Well, you've been in that
game so why be so
holy over a bunch of dead ragheads?
JOURNALIST GREGORY DOUGLAS: Were all
the passengers Indian
atomic scientists?
FORMER CIA OFFICER ROBERT T
CROWLEY:Who cares, Gregory? We got
the main man and that was all that
mattered. You ought not
criticize when you don't have the whole story.
JOURNALIST GREGORY DOUGLAS: Well, there were too many mountain
goats
running around, anyway. Then might have gotten their hands
on some weapons
from Atwood and invaded Switzerland .
FORMER CIA OFFICER ROBERT T
CROWLEY: You jest but there is truth
in what you say. We had such a weight on
us, protecting the
American people, often from themselves I admit. Many of
these
stories can never be written, Gregory. And if you try, you
had
better get your wife to start your car in the
morning.

Jehangir Bhabha died in the Air India Flight 101 air
disaster near Mont Blanc
in 1966.[12] Conspiracy theories point
to a sabotage intended at impeding
India 's nuclear program, but
his death still remains a mystery. The reason
for the conspiracy
was primarily the intense pressure by the US and Britain
on
India not to follow the Chinese - who exploded in 1964 - in
testing a
nuclear weapon. Dr. Bhabha had the technical expertise
but not the political
backing to go ahead with a test. His death
was also very similar to the death
of Enrico Mattei - the
Italian oil magnate who also started work on Italy 's
1st
nuclear reactor and was allegedly killed by the CIA - by
sabotaging
his private airplane.
Air India Flight 101
From Wikipedia, the free
encyclopedia
Source:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_India_Flight_101Air India
Flight 101 was a scheduled Air India passenger flight
that crashed into Mont
Blanc in France on the morning of 24
January 1966.
Accident
On the
24th of January 1966 at 0702 UTC, Air India Flight Number
101, a Boeing
707-437 called "Kanchenjunga" crashed on its
regular route from Mumbai (
Bombay ) to London via Delhi ,
Beirut and Geneva . The plane was carrying 106
passengers and 11
crew members. It crashed into Glacier des Bossons
(Bossons
Glacier) on the South West face of Mont Blanc in France . At
4807
meters altitude, Mont Blanc is the highest summit in
Western Europe . There
were no survivors. It was quickly
determined that the pilot had made a
navigational error while
descending for landing into Geneva .
FLIGHT 101 –
2nd of two similar accidents: It was the second
time such an air disaster had
occurred on that part of the
mountain, both crashes involving aircraft
operated by Air India.
Earlier on 3rd of November 1950 Air India Super
Constellation
called the "Malabar Princess," carrying 48 passengers and
crew
had crashed in almost exactly the same spot killing all
on
board.
Sequence of Events
The flight to and takeoff from Beirut
were routine, except for a
failure of the no. 2 VOR ( VHF Omni-directional
Radio Range ).
At 07:00 GMT the pilot reported reaching FL190 to Geneva .
He
was told to maintain that flight level "unless able to descend
VMC
(Visual meteorological conditions) one thousand on top". The
pilot confirmed
this and added that they were passing abeam Mont
Blanc . The controller noted
that the flight wasn't abeam Mont
Blanc yet and radioed "you have 5 miles to
the Mont Blanc ", to
which the pilot answered with "Roger." Flight 101 then
started
to descend from FL190 until it struck the Mont Blanc at
an
elevation of 15585 feet.
Passengers
The victims consisted of 106
passengers and 11 crew. One of the
victims included chairman of the Indian
Atomic Energy Commission
Dr Homi Jehangir Bhabha, who was on his way to
Vienna. The
remaining passengers were Indian nationals, 46 of whom
were
sailors and 6 were British citizens.
Investigation
The captain of
the Air India Boeing 707, who was one of the
airline's most experienced
pilots, had radioed the control tower
a few minutes earlier to report that
his instruments were
working fine and the aircraft was flying at 19,000ft
(5,791
metres) - at least 3,000 ft (914 metres) higher than the Mont
Blanc
summit.
"The commission concluded that the most likely hypothesis was
the
following:
a) The pilot-in-command, who knew on leaving Beirut that one
of
the VORs was unserviceable, miscalculated his position in
relation to
Mont Blanc and reported his own estimate of this
position to the controller;
the radar controller noted the
error, determined the position of the aircraft
correctly and
passed a communication to the aircraft which, he believed,
would
enable it to correct its position.;
b) For want of a sufficiently
precise phraseology, the
correction was mis-understood by the pilot who,
under the
mistaken impression that he had passed the ridge leading to
the
summit and was still at a flight level which afforded
sufficient
safety clearance over the top of Mont Blanc, continued
his
descent."
