Was Presidential Detail Penetrated by an Assassin?
by Gordon Duff, Senior Editor
Cartagena, Colombia (VT) The story, one a child wouldn’t believe, is that our Secret Service and Army advance teams, those that arrange for presidential security, were arrested for failing to pay one or more whores for “services rendered.”
The real deal is very probably this:
At least one of the members of the presidential detail is suspected of working with foreign nationals to arrange the assassination of President Obama.
A certain nation comes to mind, one very close to former Governor Romney, the GOP candidate hopelessly behind in the polls, a candidate belonging to a religion seen as a dangerous sect, a candidate hated by most American women and women vote.
One country was told it wasn’t getting a war with Iran, has chosen to put all its weight behind an obvious loser and has no choice but to kill Obama or suffer the wrath of a president who has little to lose during a second term. There is no other reason such a hare brained story as this one would be foisted on the world during an election year.
What is coming up is not fines and demotions but waterboarding, electrodes, lie detectors and forensic accounting, not tied to “below the waist” antics but more to making sure the president was going to catch a 9mm disease or be subjected to one of those car bombs we so often miss.
The newspaper stories, though entertaining, just enough sex and “stink” to put on the president to amuse the Fox News crowd is hiding something and that something is vulnerability.
This is actually such a lame excuse or as we call it, “cover and deception” would work, mainstream news and their addiction to smut.
The supposed party was at the Hotel Caribe, five military officers, the command portion of the president’s advance detachment, under “house arrest.” Several members of the Secret Service are, theoretically, back in the US, awaiting administrative hearings for “code of conduct” violations.

This is not credible.
You see, nobody gets to work security for the President of the United States without a special kind of security clearance. Along with constant drug testing goes the lie detector tests.
As the “honey trap,” blackmail tied to sex, is a way of compromising an agent, the tests given both Secret Service and military that do advance security work for the president and vice president include questions about sex with prostitutes.
They also include meetings with foreign nationals, accepting payments, lies of any kind, violations of rules, the questioning is quite circumspect and effective. This group went “bad’ all of a sudden or the whole thing is a lie.
Presidential advance detail, both military and Secret Service also have defacto diplomatic immunity.
What makes this even more unlikely is that Columbia is a drug client state of the CIA, where Americans can, if they are the right people, and these are the right people, can shoot folks down in the street with impunity.
In actuality, we do just that, attack drug production facilities, at times we have major military forces in Columbia and keep half the Army, police and other officials on our unofficial payroll.
The duplistic aspect of this is that while cocaine submarines are plying our coasts prominent Americans not only launder the cash but the CIA has a very long history of dealing directly with cartel members, supplying aircraft, some flying directly into the US, others landing first in Costa Rica.
We called this Iran/Contra and if you are curious about how the game has been played, one decades old, Mike Ruppert would be glad to tell you about it.
There is even more to this. When the presidential advance team arrives, they are met by high ranking opposites, all of whom are “above the law” in Colombia.
I carry a stack of business cards in my wallet, heads of security organizations, some heads of state, national police agencies, spy agencies, most with private cell phones written on the back and I am nothing but a petty journalist.
Imagine if I traveled for the president?
Pull out one of these cards, the handcuffs are removed in seconds, you are saluted and, in some countries, the police ask you if, just as a common courtesy, there is someone they could kill or at least torture for you.
What isn’t done is arrest American troops. That is illegal. How?
SOFA. We call it the Separation of Forces Agreement that requires local cops to call someone before arresting an American. Generally, unless there is a busload of burning kindergartners and grieving parents, someone, such as a whore, is going to be led away.
As for the issue of “pay or not to pay,” Columbia is a Catholic country and prostitution is illegal. A prostitute or whore who goes to the police to enforce her pricing code is arrested, especially if the foreign national involved is part of a group that spends hundreds of millions of dollars on the Colombian police and military.
Prostitutes that want to be paid hire pimps with guns and pay off police, same as here in the United States. Generally hotel clerks, or the “concierge” at better hotels arrange the deal.
I have no responsibility for the relative judgement of those who protect the president but it is my guess that they are regularly subjected to lie detector tests that cover any drug use, contact with enemy agents, breaking any laws or code of conduct.
Such things are extremely routine and are done continually. This means this whole thing is a farce.
We could go a step further. Imagine yourself an American citizen in Columbia at a 4 star hotel such as the Caribe.
Picture the hotel staff calling the police to have you arrested because a prostitute that they let into the hotel was demanding money from a patron.
This isn’t a cheap hotel. They really want the entire world to know they are filled with cheap whores and that their staff works with the police to shake down the residents?
Whoever thought this one up better hope they are very good friends with the owners of the hotel. I can imagine how this one will look on the comment section of tripadvisor.com or on Rick Steve’s new “Let’s Visit Columbia for Drugs and Whores.”
Next time someone wants to kill a president can’t we just do it in Dallas as usual, set up a coverup, with the assassins running the investigation as they did for Kennedy or 9/11? Won’t we ever learn?
