Fantasyworld Opens in Arkansas

The head of the new Clinton Presidential Library claimed recently that the institution would not try to rewrite history.

However, like a work from the pens of a Soviet-era propaganda machine, it is not what is in the library but what is left out that tells the true history of Bill Clinton.

The two books written by both Clintons, "My Life" and vLiving History, " leave out whole segments of the life and history of the Clinton family. There is an entire cast of interesting personalities who were very close to the Clintons – all conspicuously missing from both works.

Bill and Hillary Clinton do not like to talk about the Riady family and their paid agent, John Huang. You will find nothing about Riady, Lippo and Huang in either Clinton book.

Yet both Clintons knew the Riady family well from their Arkansas days. Moctar and his son James were close to Bill and Hillary through 1992 and into the White House. Moctar even owned the firm selected by Hillary Clinton to replace the White House travel office.

In 1993, John Huang was very close to the Clintons, having worked with both Bill and Hillary during the Arkansas years at the part-Indonesian-owned Worthen Bank. Bill Clinton's personal choice for the Commerce Department was former Lippo banker John Huang.

Indonesian billionaire Moctar Riady and James Riady paid Huang very well at Lippo Bank, much more than any income he could legally earn at the Commerce Department.

Huang pulled down six figures while at Lippo but barely broke $50,000 a year inside the Clinton Commerce Department. When Huang left Lippo for the Clinton administration, he bravely took a major cut in pay and a secret clearance.

Mrs. Clinton reportedly insisted that John Huang be given a position at the U.S. Commerce Department under Ron Brown. Mrs. Clinton has not made any public comment on her relationship with Huang's employer, Indonesian billionaire Moctar Riady. Yet there is a very nice picture of Mrs. Clinton greeting Moctar Riady in the White House.

Indonesian billionaire Moctar Riady has been accused of passing illegal monies to the 1992 and 1996 Clinton-Gore campaigns. His son James pleaded guilty to passing illegal money to the Clinton campaign.

Ironically, the CIA also accused Riady of working for Chinese military intelligence. According to a 1998 CIA report presented to Senator Fred Thompson, R-Tenn., "James and Moctar Riady have had a long-term relationship with a Chinese intelligence agency. The relationship is based on mutual benefit with the Riadys receiving assistance in finding business opportunities in exchange for large sums of money and other help."

"The Chinese intelligence agency seeks to locate and develop relationships with information collectors, particularly with close association to the U.S. government," states the CIA report on Riady.

John Huang

Documents from Huang's office show that while at the Commerce Department he worked on weapons exports. Huang had detailed documents covering proposed exports of Patriot missiles to South Korea, artillery to Kuwait, attack helicopters to the Netherlands, and fighter jets to the United Arab Emirates.

During his stay at Commerce, Huang obtained a secret clearance and attended more than 37 classified briefings from the CIA.

Huang's documents show that the Commerce Department and the CIA were aware of massive corruption inside electric power plant deals for Indonesia. The "corruption, collusion and nepotism" cost the U.S. and Indonesian taxpayers billions of dollars siphoned off into the corrupt Suharto family dictatorship.

John Huang pleaded guilty in 1999 to federal charges of making illegal political contributions to the Clinton-Gore campaign. In addition, Huang took the Fifth Amendment over 2,000 times when asked under oath if he was an agent of the Chinese government.

The federal judge in charge of Huang's case has cited him for contempt for not answering questions under oath. Still, the judge has never enforced any penalty on the convicted felon for not answering questions.

Blame It on Freeh

Bill Clinton mentions the Chinagate scandal in his 957-page book only once, blaming the entire series of events on FBI Director Louis Freeh.

"I didn't believe Freeh was foolish enough to think the Democratic party would knowingly accept illegal contributions from the Chinese government, he was just trying to avoid criticism from the press and the Republicans," writes Clinton.

Of course, Clinton does not go into the close working relationship his wife had with Johnny Chung. Chung frequently paid visits to the White House, delivering brown paper bags of cash to the first lady – no questions asked.

In 1996, the head of Chinese military intelligence, General Ji, met with Johnny Chung in the basement of a Hong Kong restaurant. At the same time, Johnny's daughter and her teenage friend were inside communist China, under the close supervision of Chinese army agents.

"We like your president," General Ji told Chung before passing a check for $300,000 across the table. "We want him re-elected."

Considering that his daughter's life was at stake, Johnny Chung was certainly in no position to disagree with General Ji. Some of the $300,000 in red army money made it to Clinton and Gore through the Democratic National Committee.

Johnny Chung pleaded guilty and currently cites his bank-account record as proof that Chinese army money was passed to the Clinton-Gore campaign.

Hillary’s Bad Memory

Hillary has also left many unanswered questions that the so-called press will not ask. In fact, Hillary's faded memory is so bad that she forgot, could not recall or had no recollection 250 times under oath.

While many pundits and Clinton supporters claim that this is a way to slime the former first lady, the "faded" memory fact speaks for itself.

It is no secret that Hillary's past takes us through a pile of hard, cold cash from the Chinese army, Chinese army agents roaming the White House and photos with a wide variety of scoundrels.

For example, the one prominent name missing from Hillary's "tell-all" book is Riady. Mrs. Clinton failed to mention the Riady family at all. One would get the impression that the Riadys were not present in the Clinton White House.

Moctar and James Riady played a key role in bringing the Clintons to power in Washington. The Indonesian billionaire and his Lippo banking company managed to contribute large sums of money to the Clintons' campaigns even though it was against the law.

Moctar's gardener managed to contribute $450,000 directly to Bill Clinton in a single check. James Riady, Moctar's son, eventually pleaded guilty to campaign violations.

Mrs. Clinton not only knew the Riadys but took their money as well. To prove my point I need only to cite photographic evidence. Her picture with Moctar Riady is certainly damning evidence of a relationship that spanned several bank accounts and two decades.

It is often said that a picture tells a thousand words. However, Hillary's pictures not only tell stories left out of her book but they also netted $10,000 each for the DNC in illegal donations.

Crime Photos

Mrs. Clinton has left us with a wide selection of photo evidence. Mrs. Clinton has had her photo taken with drug dealer Jorge Cabrera. Jorge donated a load of drug money to the DNC in order to get close to the first lady. Jorge is currently serving federal time for smuggling 3,000 pounds of cocaine into the United States.

Ironically, Jorge and Hillary were photographed in front of the White House Christmas tree.

Mrs. Clinton also has a virtual personal photo gallery of modern crime. It is almost as if she wanted to collect snapshots of herself and major crime figures.

For example, the co-presidents were photographed together with Macao criminal boss Ng Lapseng. Ng makes most of his money through the female-empowering career of prostitution.

Ng owns the Fortuna Hotel in Macao. You can stay overnight at the Fortuna for a reasonable price. In addition, you can also purchase the services of a Fortuna hostess for an additional nightly or hourly fee.

Ng frequently visited the Clintons with another close friend left out of the Clinton library – Charlie "Yah-Lin" Trie. It was through Charlie Trie that Ng also donated thousands of dollars to the Clintons.

Ng's Fortuna Hotel showed up again later in official State Department charges against the satellite division of Hughes. The Fortuna turned out to be a front for a Chinese army company that leased a Hughes satellite.

Hillary Clinton's close relationship with the Chinese army is all too well documented. The first lady was clearly involved with Chinese agent Johnny Chung and the penetration of Colonel Liu of Chinese army unit COSTIND (the Chinese Commission of Science, Technology, and Industry for National Defense).

Johnny Chung passed Chinese army money to the DNC through Mrs. Clinton. In return, a very young and attractive female PLA colonel and COSTIND computer information warfare specialist was allowed inside the White House to meet Bill Clinton.

According to the GAO, COSTIND "oversees development of China's weapon systems and is responsible for identifying and acquiring telecommunications technology applicable for military use."

Deception

I accumulated over 50,000 documents generated by the Clinton administration detailing the corruption, the deception and the lies. I am not a lawyer, yet I have won three out of four cases in federal court forcing the U.S. government to release these documents.

From these pages I have put together my own book, "Deception, " which details the true history of the Clinton years. The stories detailed above are merely a sample of the eight years that Bill Clinton occupied the White House.

It is certain that you will not find my book in the Clinton library. Factual works and volumes of documents written by the Clinton administration are not welcome in the fantasy roller coaster ride created in Arkansas.

It is worth noting that no corporation, government entity or person, including Bill and Hillary Clinton, has elected to challenge the documented facts in my book.
