In The Heroin Lobby, Part 4, I point out that Congressman Wexler also plays a key role in the Turkish Coalition of America (TCA), an organization founded by G. Lincoln McCurdy, a key ATC operative and likely frontman for the Turkish Deep State (see The Turkish Lobby, Obstruction of Justice and Henry Waxman and The Heroin Lobby, Part 2). Specifically, in The Heroin Lobby, Part 4, I raised the following point:
I would be most interested to find out why Congressman Wexler is not just a member of the TCA's Congressional Caucus, but a co-chair -- and, why contributions from the TC-USA PAC to his campaign have been maxed out.
In that context, it is interesting to again review the money that Congressman Wexler has received from TC-USA PAC:
WEXLER, ROBERT VIA ROBERT WEXLER FOR CONGRESS COMMITTEE, 03/16/2007, $1000.00, 27990339101
WEXLER, ROBERT VIA ROBERT WEXLER FOR CONGRESS COMMITTEE, 07/25/2007, $1000.00, 28930167811
WEXLER, ROBERT VIA ROBERT WEXLER FOR CONGRESS COMMITTEE, 12/11/2007, $300.00, 28930167811
Keep in mind that this is only the tip of the iceberg. Once these guys decide to steer money to a politician, that money comes from all directions. For example, two students together have contributed tens of thousands of dollars to political campaigns in this election cycle; these students are important sources of funding to the TC-USA PAC and to candidates that the TC-USA PAC backs. Included in that list of candidates is Congressman Wexler, who received the maximum allowable contribution from each of these two students:
AYASLI, BOHAN, LEXINGTON, MA 02173, SELF/STUDENT, WEXLER, ROBERT, VIA ROBERT WEXLER FOR CONGRESS COMMITTEE, 03/16/2007, $2300.00, 27930593206
AYASLI, ORHAN, LEXINGTON, MA 02173, SELF/STUDENT, WEXLER, ROBERT, VIA ROBERT WEXLER FOR CONGRESS COMMITTEE, 03/16/2007, $2300.00, 27930593201
In The Heroin Lobby, Part 8 I addressed the contributions of these two students in more detail.
The point is, organizations that front for foreign -- specifically, Turkish -- organized crime are steering money to Congressman Robert Wexler of Florida.
Why?
Why is Congressman Wexler a co-chair of the TCA's Congressional Caucus, and why are they taking such good care of him?
From Former FBI Translator Sibel Edmonds Calls Current 9/11 Investigation Inadequate by Jim Hogue, May 07, 2004:
JH: Can you explain more about what money you are talking about?
SE: The most significant information that we were receiving did not come from counter-terrorism investigations, and I want to emphasize this. It came from counter-intelligence, and certain criminal investigations, and issues that have to do with money laundering operations.
You get to a point where it gets very complex, where you have money laundering activities, drug related activities, and terrorist support activities converging at certain points and becoming one. In certain points -- and they [the intelligence community] are separating those portions from just the terrorist activities. And, as I said, they are citing "foreign relations" which is not the case, because we are not talking about only governmental levels. And I keep underlining semi-legit organizations and following the money. When you do that the picture gets grim. It gets really ugly.
From The Highjacking of a Nation, Part 2: The Auctioning of Former Statesmen & Dime a Dozen Generals by Sibel Edmonds, November 29, 2006:
Long gone are the days when generals were content to retire and go back home where they held their heads high as honorable patriots and heroes who had served their nation; where they marched in their towns' parades as proud distinguished men and women who had fulfilled their duty to the people. Today, as we clearly see, they perceive themselves and their authority as a commodity; they go about marketing their worth (nationally and internationally; foreign and domestic) long before they leave their positions as public servants.
[snip]
The foreign influence, the lobbyists, the current highly positioned civil servants who are determined future 'wanna be' lobbyists, and the fat cats of the Military Industrial Complex, operate successfully under the radar, with unlimited reach and power, with no scrutiny, while selling your interests, benefiting from your tax money, and serving the highest bidders regardless of what or who they may be. This deep state seems to operate at all levels of our government; from the President’s office to Congress, from the military quarters to the civil servants' offices.
From Did Speaker Hastert Accept Turkish Bribes to Deny Armenian Genocide and Approve Weapons Sales?, an interview with Amy Goodman, 2005:
Sibel Edmonds: [snip] They are not speaking about the link between the narcotics and al Qaeda. Yes, we are hearing about them coming down on some charities as the real funds behind al Qaeda, but most of al Qaeda's funding is not through these charity organizations. It's through narcotics. And have you heard anything to this date, anything about these issues which we have had information since 1997? And as I would again emphasize, we are talking about countries. And they are blocking this information, and also the fact that certain officials in this country are engaged in treason against the United States and its interests and its national security, be it the Department of State or certain elected officials.
From Former FBI Translator Sibel Edmonds Calls Current 9/11 Investigation Inadequate by Jim Hogue, May 07, 2004:
JH: Here's a question that you might be able to answer: What is al-Qaeda?
SE: This is a very interesting and complex question. When you think of al-Qaeda, you are not thinking of al-Qaeda in terms of one particular country, or one particular organization. You are looking at this massive movement that stretches to tens and tens of countries. And it involves a lot of sub-organizations and sub-sub-organizations and branches and it's extremely complicated. So to just narrow it down and say al-Qaeda and the Saudis, or to say it's what they had at the camp in Afghanistan, is extremely misleading. And we don't hear the extent of the penetration that this organization and the sub-organizations have throughout the world, throughout their networks and throughout their various activities. It's extremely sophisticated. And then you involve a significant amount of money into this equation. Then things start getting a lot of overlap -- money laundering, and drugs and terrorist activities and their support networks converging in several points. That's what I'm trying to convey without being too specific. And this money travels. And you start trying to go to the root of it and it's getting into somebody's political campaign, and somebody's lobbying. And people don't want to be traced back to this money.
From 'The Stakes Are Too High for Us to Stop Fighting Now' An interview with FBI whistleblower Sibel Edmonds by Christopher Deliso August 15, 2005:
SE: The fact that there are no investigations -- I will give you an analogy, okay? Say if we decided to have a "war on drugs," but said in the beginning, "right, we're only going to go after the young black guys on the street level." Hey, we already have tens of thousands of them in our jails anyway, why not a few more? But we decided never to go after the middle levels, let alone the top levels...
It's like this with the so-called war on terror. We go for the Attas and Hamdis -- but never touch the guys on the top.
CD: You think they [the government] know who they are, the top guys, and where?
SE: Oh yeah, they know.
CD: So why don't they get them?
SE: It's like I told you before -- this would upset "certain foreign relations." But it would also expose certain of our elected officials, who have significant connections with high-level drugs- and weapons-smuggling -- and thus with the criminal underground, even with the terrorists themselves.
It seems to me that Democrat Congressman Robert Wexler of Florida is a politician who has been "traced back to this money", and who has "significant connections with high-level drugs- and weapons-smuggling -- and thus with the criminal underground, even with the terrorists themselves."
I think it's worth sniffing around a little more, don't you?
