Professor Well-Prepared to Chase Terrorists
By Victoria Rivkin
New York Law Journal
July 16, 1999 - [problem -reaction - solution - During the Clintonista Crime spree Reno and Freeh went on several junketts abroad for GloboCop meetings with other representatives of "global law enforcement"...working hand in glove with the manufacturers of "Terrorism"...] Ron Noble was employed by Lloyd Bentsen to "Cover Up" the Mass Murder at Waco. Where is Ron Now ? Sitting atop the Zionazi Globocop-Criminal Police. Opaque. Clear. Defined. Sharp.

Ronald K. Noble, a New York University law professor and the first American elected to head the International Criminal Police Organization - better known as Interpol - knows what it is like to be suspected of a crime. The son of an African-American G.I. and a German woman, Mr. Noble said that when returning from his travels abroad, he is often stopped by U.S. Customs officers who see in him the profile of a globe-trotting criminal.

"Depending what country I'm coming from, I am either a terrorist or a drug trafficker [or even a jewel thief]," he said.

And it is not as if the world's top-cop-to-be is unknown in the law enforcement world. For three years he was the highest-ranking law enforcement official at the Department of Treasury, and ironically, in charge of the U.S. Customs Service. His other duties then included overseeing the Secret Service, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms and the Criminal Investigative Division of the Internal Revenue Service.

His run-ins with Customs officers while traveling are a reminder of the importance of humility, said Mr. Noble, 42, a personable man who heartily professes disbelief at his numerous professional successes. He said he relished the experience at the Treasury Department, despite being on the hot seat for most of his tenure for the federal raid at Waco, Texas, the Oklahoma City bombing and White House security.

Mr. Noble comes across more like a well-polished politician than a top policeman or a pedagogue. He is energetic and excited, especially when displaying his favorite office mementos. He is particulary proud of a 1960s photo of his mentor, Judge A. Leon Higginbotham Jr., former chief judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, which the judge signed right before his death last December. Also displayed prominently is a "Great Teacher Award" for 1998, presented to him by his law students. Mr. Noble's charm and casual dress make it difficult to see him as the world's chief terrorist chaser, though he clearly has the resume for the job.

Grateful to Mentor

Raised near Fort Dix, N.J., Mr. Noble graduated from the University of New Hampshire, and then Stanford University School of Law in 1982. He went on to clerk for two years for Judge Higginbotham, whose persistent urging caused Mr. Noble to move on to the U.S. Attorney's Office in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania instead of entering private practice, a path Mr. Noble said he had preferred for himself at the time.

After six years in Philadelphia, Mr. Noble became the deputy assistant attorney general, special counsel and chief of staff for the Department of Justice, supervising several sections of the criminal division. Although Mr. Noble said that he never intended to teach, he was recruited in 1988 by NYU law school, where he teaches evidence, money laundering, gun control laws and federal criminal law.

But the quiet days of an academic life did not last very long.

He took a leave of absence after President Clinton nominated him in 1993 to the post of Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, the department's chief law enforcement officer. After a year, he became the first undersecretary of the Treasury, a title created in 1994, supervising the Office of the Assistant Secretary and all Treasury enforcement bureaus. In 1996 he was awarded Treasury's highest honor - the Alexander Hamilton Award.

In the Hot Seat

His three years at the department were not easy. The standoff at Waco, the Oklahoma City bombing and the attacks on the White House shook the country, leaving in their wake many questions about security and law enforcement. In response to these events, Mr. Noble led the investigation of the highly criticized raid by the ATF in 1993 on the Branch Davidian compound near Waco. And it was his recommendation that closed Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, D.C., to cars, to further secure the White House.

But in 1996, NYU beckoned, threatening to give away his school-provided apartment in Greenwich Village if he did not return. Because he was ready to come back - and because good real estate in New York is hard to come by - Mr. Noble resigned from the Treasury. But once again he will abandon the ivory tower. In early July, he was nominated for the Interpol post by U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno and was elected secretary general of the organization.

International Policeman

Interpol, with headquarters located in Lyon, France, has roughly a $25 million budget and 177 member countries, and is the second largest international organization in the world after the United Nations. Interpol's General Assembly will not ratify his appointment until after the present secretary general, Raymond Kendall steps down on Oct. of 2000. Mr. Noble is the only candidate and does not expect rejection.

In his spacious law school office, Mr. Noble, a self-proclaimed workaholic, is already on the job - taking a phone call from an international informer calling from abroad. The transition to Interpol chief may be easy for Mr. Noble. From 1994 until 1996, he served on Interpol's 13-member executive committee, which oversees the police organization, and was a member of Interpol's subcommittee on finance.

The international police organization, although not as glitzy or powerful as the version seen in movies and on television, investigates criminal activity and coordinates cooperation between the local police forces of member states. Interpol has the power to locate criminals but not the power to arrest them - that is done locally, as Mr. Noble pointed out.

Plans for Interpol

While at Interpol, Mr. Noble plans to focus on combating terrorism, which he said he believes will be done much more through the Internet. Thus, his first goal is to bring the 76-year-old outfit's technology into the 21st century. "If Interpol doesn't adopt a state of the art, Web-based system to communicate with local police, Interpol will die out," said Mr. Noble.

He also intends to stop Interpol's policy of terminating the membership of the poorest countries that cannot pay their dues. Some countries are simply too poor to pay, Mr. Noble said.

Finally, he said he will work to increase Interpol's small budget by getting the six richest countries, including the United States, to contribute more money. According to Mr. Noble, only 30 percent of Interpol's budget comes from the six wealthiest countries, while those same countries provide 68 percent of the United Nations' budget.

"I believe the U.S. should pay much more to Interpol, not just for Interpol but for U.S. citizens. We are, after all, targeted much more often than other countries by terrorists," he said.
