Rigged deals can't get much sweeter, can they?

At the time, DynCorp's Jim McCoy got new contracts from the State, Treasury,
and Commerce Departments, as well as the CIA and NASA. It became common
knowledge that DynCorp acted as a front-company on behalf of the CIA, hiring
mercenaries and "assets" in order to distance itself from the manipulation
of US foreign policy from behind the scenes.
According to an article in The Nation ("DynCorp's Drug Problem," by Jason
Vest), DynCorp employees have also been implicated in narcotics trafficking.
It must be remembered that US involvement in Colombia is ultimately a gambit
to control the lucrative drug trade, as well as the oil fields, explored by
Bush Family connected Harken Energy.
DynCorp Charged with Terrorism
Most recently DynCorp has been charged with terrorism.
According to NarcoNews.com reporter Al Giordano (www.narconews.com), a
class-action lawsuit has been filed in Washington, DC, on behalf of 10,000
farmers in Ecuador and the AFL-CIO-related International Labor Rights Fund.
Why? DynCorp has US Government contracts to spray toxic herbicides over 14
percent of Colombia, supposedly to eliminate coca in the phony War on Drugs.
Giordano writes, "Although DynCorp's taxpayer-sponsored bio-warfare has not
made a dent in the cocaine trade, it has caused more than 1,100 documented
cases of illness among citizens, destroyed untold acres of food crops,
displaced tens of thousands of peasant farmers, and harmed the fragile
Amazon ecosystem, all in the name of the 'war on drugs.'"
"DynCorp may be about to get its comeuppance in federal court," continues
Giordano, "where Justice Richard W. Roberts is presiding over a lawsuit
brought by labor, environmental and indigenous groups against the aerial
herbicide program. The text of the legal complaint is available online for
all to read: www.usfumigation.org/compliant.htm.
In addition, NarcoNews.com writes that DynCorp's top corporate director,
Paul Lombardi, attempted to intimidate the International Labor Rights Fund,
one of the plaintiffs in the lawsuit.
According to documents obtained by NarcoNews.com , on October 25, 2001,
"Lombardi wrote to each of the board members of the AFL-CIO allied Rights
Fund in an unsuccessful attempt to scare them off the lawsuit. In that
letter, Lombardi accused the group, without offering evidence, of fronting
for illicit 'drug cartels.' Lombardi also attempted, bombastically, to
portray the Rights Fund as an enemy in the war on terrorism. He wrote:
'Considering the major international issues with which we are all dealing as
a consequence of the events of September 11th, none of us need to be
sidetracked with frivolous litigation the aim of which is to fulfill a
political agenda.' And DynCorp's Lombardi attempted to cause the Rights Fund
to drop the lawsuit, saying, 'Clearly it is not in our mutual best interests
to continue politically charged litigation.' Bishop Jesse DeWitt, president
of the International Human Rights Fund, responded in a November 5, 2001
letter to DynCorp's Lombardi, suggesting that it is DynCorp that engages in
terrorist actions."
In this letter, Bishop DeWitt called DynCorp's actions in South America
"terrorism." He wrote "we found your reference to September 11 particularly
apt, but for a very different reason. Based on what appear to be uncontested
facts, a group of at least 10,000 Ecuadoran subsistence farmers have been
poisoned from aerial assault by your company."
"Imagine that scene for a moment. You are an Ecuadoran farmer, and suddenly,
without notice or warning, a large helicopter approaches, and the
frightening noise of the chopper blades invades the quiet," he continues.
"The helicopter comes closer and sprays a toxic poison on you, your
children, your livestock and your food crops. You see your children get
sick, your crops die. Mr. Lombardi, we at the International Labor Rights
Fund, and most civilized people, consider such an attack on innocent people
terrorism. Your effort to hide behind September 11 is shameful and
breathtakingly cynical."
"Bishop DeWitt put Lombardi on notice that he and other DynCorp officials
may be added as defendants in the lawsuit, now having been officially
informed of the harm done by their fumigation program: 'If there is any
further spraying done that causes similar harm, we will amend the legal
complaint and name you and other DynCorp decision-makers as defendants in
your personal capacities, and will charge you with knowingly conducting
aerial attacks on innocent people. Again, based on well-established
principles of international law, that would be terrorism.'"
Lombardi has shown that Homegrown White-Collar Terrorism is alive and well
at DynCorp.
Translating the "Drug War" into Dollars: How Much Pop Per Dead Colombian?
So how much does DynCorp really make on the notorious War on Drugs Scam?
According to Catherine Austin Fitts, former FHA Commissioner in the Bush I
Administration and former CEO of Hamilton Securities, an investment banking/
software company, the creation of Stock Value, also referred to as Capital
Gains, is called "Pop" in Wall Street jargon. She explains the money
dynamics of DynCorp's business model with regard to its War on Drugs
activities.
"If DynCorp has a $60 million per year contract supporting knowledge
management for asset seizures in the United States," she says. "The current
proxy shows that they value their stock, which they buy and sell internally,
at approximately 30 times earnings."
"So, if a contract has a 5-10% profit, then per $100 million of contracts,
DynCorp makes about $5-$10 million, which translates into $150 million to
$300 million of stock value."
"That means that for a $200 million contract, with average earnings of 5-10%
($10 million to $20 million), DynCorp is generating $300 million to $600
million of stock value. Pug Winokur of Capricorn Holdings appears to have
about 5% ownership, which means that his partnerships' stock value increase
$15-$30 million from the War in Colombia."
"If the DynCorp team kills 100 people, as an example, then that means they
make $1.5 - $3 million per death. That way the Pop per Dead Colombian can be
estimated, or, how much capital gains can be made from killing one
Colombian. Since DynCorp was also in the Gulf and in Kosovo, we should be
able to calculate the relative value of killing people in various cultures
and nationalities. Pug Winokur's partnership, under these assumptions, makes
$75,000 to $250,000 of Pop per Dead Colombian."
"Since the stock of prison companies trades on a per bed basis, my guess is
that defense stocks are going to evolve towards a per person expenditure and
other similar performance rules-of-thumb for profit-making opportunities."
"One of my expectations is that the numbers for the Colombian war will yield
a very high per death cost," Fitts continues. "That means lots of
shareholders' profits, but probably very few American Jobs Created per Dead
Colombian. That's because the big money is not made on labor intensive
contracts, but on switching ownership of land, natural resources and other
resources, including control of the drug markets and their reinvestment in
our stock market and university endowments like Harvard, as opposed to local
Colombian investments. This insider trading cabal is where the real money
goes."
"That's why DynCorp's role as a knowledge manager (managing federal agency
databases) is so important," she concludes. "It's worth far more money than
the straight-up government contract. The profit will not show up for insider
trading on DynCorp's portfolio, but in other capital gains that flow to the
players of the Chase and Council on Foreign Relations syndicates and their
private and institutional portfolios."
Outsourcing State Terrorism
This analysis of Catherine Austin Fitts, current CEO of Solari, Inc. (www.solari.com)
is probably the best model available for calculating the cost-benefit
numbers in this egregious corporate-government scam.
The implications are ominous. By subcontracting (outsourcing) State
Terrorism to so-called "private" entities like DynCorp, the US Government
abdicates any moral/ ethical high ground in future confrontations. The
proverbial "Iron Fist in the Velvet Glove" of the US Military in a Global
Imperial Rampage is all that's left.
It was Executive Order 12333 that precipitated the shift during the
Reagan-Bush Regime - a policy change in which so-called "national security"
and "intelligence" functions were "privatized."
Likewise the DOJ-CIA Memorandum of Understanding allowed the outsourcing of
illicit drug trafficking and weapons sales to private firms and individuals.
(Regarding CIA Inspector General Fred Hitz's cover-up of CIA drug
trafficking, see "The Curious Case of the Spooky Professor")
According to Washington Technology Magazine, this is the future. "The global
market for outsourcing of government services is growing faster than
outsourcing in any commercial segment, and is likely to more than double
over the next five years, according to a new study by Accenture Ltd.,"
writes Patience Wait in her article "Government outsourcing grows fastest of
all sectors" (March 4, 2002). In this outsourcing market, DynCorp has an
estimated 5% market share, while Lockheed Martin leads the proverbial pack
with 30%.
However there's a bigger question. When a handful of federal contracting
firms with lucrative insider deals control federal accounting and computer
systems, does US Government sovereignty even exist anymore?
In other words, if the US Government and its agencies do not control their
proprietary accounting, payment and information systems, it becomes even
questionable whether we have a sovereign government at all.
The outsourcing of these systems, then, in essence has become a silent coup
d'etat by Corporate-Government Insiders.
According to Washington Technology Magazine (March 4, 2002), top outsourcing
vendors to the US Government in fiscal 2000 are Lockheed Martin Corp (30%
market share), CSC (13%), EDS (7%), DynCorp (5%), TRW (5%), Raytheon (4%)
SAIC 4%) Northrop Grumman (3%) and Unisys (2%).
This is America's Corporate/ Public Enemy #1 -- the parasitic constituents
of the so-called Military-Industrial-Pharmaceutical Complex. Now that the
parasites have literally overwhelmed the host, the question remains -- how
long will companies like DynCorp continue to give America the finger?
And, more importantly, how long will America put up with the Enemy Within?

WINOKUR AND DYNCORP
As Federal investigations swirl around Winokur and
other board members, doubt has been raised about
the viability of independent investigation, given
Enron's enormous political clout, Winokur's leading
role in the company that manages information systems
for many of the investigative agencies raises a
special set of concerns.
Winokur owes much of his wealth to his role in
reconstructing Dyncorp, one of the Federal government's
largest private contractors. He is a former Dyncorp
chairman and remains a director of the company. At
present, Dyncorp manages e-mail and information
systems for the Department of Justice, the Securities
and Exchange Commission and the Federal Bureau of
Investigations.
Investigators are reportedly concerned that Dyncorp's
control of agency information systems could compromise
their investigations of Winokur and Enron.
