Marc Rich: Hillary Clinton
built 130 days ago
Highly qualified Israeli and Washington sources report that if anyone wants to ask questions about the Marc Rich pardon, the person to ask is not Bill Clinton, but Al Gore. The chief advocate for the Rich pardon was attorney Jack Quinn, who was formerly Al Gore's chief of staff. Quinn is known as a Gore loyalist, who followed the instructions of the Vice President, even when nominally working for President Clinton.

Marc Rich and his sidekick Pincus Green, "Pinky", head up one of the world's largest transacters in metals, such as tungsten from Red China. Part of the dealings on the Red Chinese deals have been arranged through Prescott Bush, Jr., brother of George Bush The Elder and Uncle of George W. Bush, alleged "President". According to published accounts, Prescott Bush, Jr. has ... worked corrupt deals with the massive Japanese mafia, the Yakuza. To make the Red Chinese tungsten deals work, Rich and his firms paid a "commission" or bribe to Clinton as President as well as the First Lady Hillary and contributed heavily to her carpet-bagging campaign to be U.S. Senator from New York. The funds were funneled through tax-havens like Antigua, Andorra, the Channel Islands, and similar tax-dodge money black holes.

As with the Iran-Contra scandal, the whole Marc Rich story is looking like another unsavory instance of unholy collaboration linking the Bush-Clinton-Bush administrations. One of the first things Clinton did after getting into the White House was shut down further congressional investigation of Iran-Contra. One of the last things Clinton did on leaving the WH was pardon Rich, linked to Iran-Contra. One of the first things the new lockstep Bush admin did after getting into the WH was shut down investigation into Marc Rich, while making a big public stink about Clinton’s purported relationship with Rich’s wife, a Dem donor as well as a NYC socialite.

For nearly 20 years, Marc Rich has been wanted by U.S. prosecutors for charges of fraud and tax evasion. But on Jan. 20, President Clinton's last day in office, Rich received a pardon of those charges, opening the door for his return to the United States. Questions of impropriety have been raised throughout Washington because Rich's ex-wife has been a generous donor and fund raiser for the Democratic Party.

Given the nastiness of the breakup, why, just a few years later, would Denise Rich throw herself into a yearlong crusade to help win a pardon for her estranged ex-husband? That's just one of the questions frustrating investigators on Capitol Hill, who have spent weeks trying to unravel the motivations, and money, behind Bill Clinton's last-minute pardon of Rich and several others. They are especially baffled about why Denise Rich's friend, Democratic fund-raiser Beth Dozoretz, worked so hard for Marc Rich's pardon, visiting the White House dozens of times and repeatedly appealing to Clinton. Together, they managed to override the advice of the Justice Department and Clinton's closest aides. Yet after three long days of hearings that seemed to raise more questions than answers--last week Dozoretz, like Denise, took the Fifth--even some of the staunchest anti-Clinton Republicans are beginning to wonder how long they should continue. "This is a dead end," says an aide close to Rep. Dan Burton, the Indiana Republican leading the pardons investigation.

Marc Rich fits snugly into this new world order. Jack Quinn, Rich’s lead attorney in charge of obtaining a pardon from President Clinton, explained the crime for which Rich was convicted on CNN’s Larry King program:
