Hi all. I began to research this earlier in the day as
a cargo aircraft crashed in Dubai
killing 6, possibly 7, crew members. The aircraft, upon take off, appeared to have trouble getting into the air and slammed into open desert not
2 miles from the airport. The crash in itself is not what I am suspecting as any type of conspiracy as it appears that the company that operates the
aircraft,
Azza Transport, has had a not so good safety record. However after something kept
prodding me to look into this transport company, something started to flesh itself out.
Now for the record, it is believed that 2 Sudanese Airline pilots were piloting the aircraft, with 4-5 Azza Transport crew members. After looking into
Azza I found numerous reports from aviation blogs and human rights sites about this company from 2007.
ReliefWeb aka Amnesty International and
Ares Blog aka Aviation Week are just 2 of the more better known ones.
They describe a report of another of the Azza Transport Fleet of 6 crashing outside of Khartoum. This aircraft was photoed with 2-122mm cannons and
numerous possible weapons crates being offloaded by Sudanese soldiers. A U.N. panel of experts as well as the Security Council was reported to have
taken up the issue of Azza supplying weapons to the Islamic groups to aid in the genocide, violating the
U.N. Resolution 1591.
As I continued, I started to wonder if this maybe a Sudanese version of the CIA's little operation,
Air America.
What I found was a little closer to a more direct involvment, aside from inspiration, by our board's favorite intelligence community whipping boys,
the C.I.A.. Here is a little background on the
C.I.A./Sudan relationship throughout the years. Retired Air Force Maj. Gen. J. Scott
Gration is the "special envoy" from the U.S. to Sudan, and has been calling for
easing of sanctions and stance against Sudan. He is
also claiming that the Sudanese/Darfur genocide is no longer taking place. Although the official stance from the Whitehouse has been that the genocide
is continuing. Could this "special envoy" actually be coordinating an Air America style operation to continue supplying
our Sudanese allies, with weapons, while trying to convince
the world community that nothing is happening in Darfur anymore? More over it makes me wonder what was being carried by that Azza flight from Dubai.
More weapons arranged as a payment by the C.I.A., shipped through the middle east, for help with intelligence matters? I am going to keep digging and
see if there really is a connection or I have been reading too many spy novels. If this is true and the C.I.A. , whom I normally stick up for, is
helping fund this genocide, then the program managers need to be brought to justice, regardless of the intel assets we have been getting in return.
Intel is NOT worth genocide.
