    This seemed rather interesting, so I'll put it up
    for everyone to look at.

    Anyone have any comment or additional info or hearsay regarding it?

    ONI, CIA, MOSSAD IN ASSASSINATION PLOT AGAINST BILL CLINTON?
    "Operation Mount Rushmore"...Was it cancelled,
    or just placed on hold?"

    (COPI) San Francisco - An alleged assassination plot against
    Presidential Candidate Bill Clinton, scheduled to take place
    during his visit here in the summer of 1992, was foiled at the
    last minute by a leak, according to sources quoted in the second
    edition of Defrauding America, by Rodney Stich.

    Code-named "Operation Mount Rushmore", the alleged plot invloved
    agents and officials within the Central Intelligence Agency
    (CIA), Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI), the Republican Party,
    and the Mossad, Israel's Intelligence Service. Also alleged to
    be involved in financing and planning were associates of the
    Heller, Ehrman, White, and McCauluiffe law firm, a prestegious
    firm that sources have claimed houses a number of Mossad agents.
    Financing is alleged to have come from EIC in nearby Redwood
    City, and its owner, Chan Wang.

    The information in Mr. Stich's book came primarily from two
    sources, both from intelligence agencies, who independantly
    reported essentially the same details.

    The primary source for the story is referred to in the book as
    "Agent X", but the context of his story identifies "Agent X" as
    Lt. Cmdr. Robert Hunt, ONI. Mr. Hunt's credentials are
    rigorously documented in the book, and include a letter from
    President Bill Clinton, dated November 22, 1993, ironically the
    thirtieth anniversary of the assassination of JFK. The letter
    addresses Lt. Cmdr. Hunt by name and agency, and appears to be
    intended as a letter of support and sympathy for his
    predicament. Mr. Hunt had been imprsoned for nearly a year,
    allegedly for refusing to testify about a joint CIA-ONI
    operation designed to test the security of submarine operations.

    According to Hunt, an assassination team used for "cleanup" in
    other controversial intelligence operations was assembled at the
    Presidio. Hunt described the operation this way:

    "I was ordered last summer [July, 1992] to go to San Francisco
    by Graham Fuller, CIA; Dick Pealer, ONI; and John Kaplin, CIA.
    These people were my handlers. I was told to go to the Bay
    Area. I flew from NAS [Naval Air Station] Norfolk to NAS
    Alameda, where I was to meet another Agent He was the C1A
    station chief for SF [San Francisco]. His name is Robert
    Larson. He made arrangements for me at the Presidio. The next
    day the team arrived, and I wondered why this hit team was in
    town. I got a call from a woman who said she was Mossad and we
    needed to meet. So we did; we had lunch. I asked her, her
    name, and she said it was Anna Colburn. I later found out her
    real name was Yossi Jameir. We talked about why I was in town,
    and I asked for what reason. She said they wanted to hit
    Clinton."

    When he asked for the technical details, Mr. Hunt says he was
    told that, "they would be operating out of Republican
    Headquarters on Van Ness Avenue, where they could monitor all
    political moves by Clinton. The lady who would oversee this was
    Joann Stanhope for the Republican Party. She is also CIA."

    When asked who would fund the operation, he said, "A man by the
    name of Chan Wang. He belongs to an organization called The
    Eagles. He also owns a real estate company called EIC in
    Redwood City. The man who would be his in-between was also CIA.
    His name was Bok Pon. Gene Ferfethen also sponsored this
    operation. He owned a winery in Napa. He is one of Wang's
    friends."

    "[Pok] told me that Yosi worked for a major law firm called
    Heller Ehrman [Heller, Erman, White, and McCauliffe], and that
    this firm would handle everything we may need, such as safe-
    houses, equipment, money, travel, etc. I later found out a
    major Mossad team was working from the law firm."

    Describing the operation, itself, Hunt said, "Knowing Clinton
    was coming to town in the next few weeks, we set up shop.
    Weapons, escape routs, rendezvous, etc. Clinton was expected to
    come and stay at the Ritz Carlton. That's when we were going to
    do it. My men and I took up a position across the street from
    the Carlton before Clinton's arrival. We photographed the whole
    area for best possible results. Anyway, three weeks before he
    was due to arrive, word had it there was a leak. Where, was
    unknown. So my team and I pulled out in fear of being caught.
    That night we were told to eliminate all factions involved,
    including the Mossad agents. This order was given by Bob
    Larson, [CIA] station chief; San Francisco." (Larson was later
    transferred to a position in the Caribbean, and known as
    "Pogo".)

    "The next morning the team and I went to the law firm looking
    for Yossi. She was not there. She was the first one we were to
    hit from the firm. We went to her home where we found her.
    Three of us: myself John Aldridge, and Phil Burgess, went in and
    asked what happened. She didn't know. We told her that we were
    going to kill her if she didn't talk. Well, she didn't talk.
    Then you can see what happened next." (Hunt had earlier stated
    that after the operation, he "never saw that Mossad Agent
    again.")

    Asked about Mossad reaction to the killing of one of its agents,
    Hunt said, "We never had any repercussions on it. I had a list
    of people. l had a guy by the name of Chan Wang I had to take
    care of. I had Stanhope to take care of. I had Yossi to take
    care of. I had the security guard to take care of. And if
    worse came to worse, we were going to take care of the whole law
    firm itself. Almost like a condor situation."

    Hunt continued to describe the "cleanup": "Next target: Bok
    Pan. We met him at the office of EIC, hoping to get Wang too.
    Well, Wang wasn't there, but Bok was. We took him and drove
    north to talk. We went to the Peppermint in Sarrnmonte just
    south of Daly City. He said he knew nothing. Then we took Bok
    over into Mill Valley on the other side of the Golden Gate,
    where he is now buried in a hill."

    "Next target: Joann Stanhope. Just as we were about to get her,
    I get a call on my pager from Flashboard. When I called, they
    said, 'stop operations.' When I asked the reason why, they said
    they found the leak."

    "The leak came from a security guard where Heller Erman had
    their office. One of the Mossad agents was dating this guard.
    Our job was to, of course, take care of it. So that night when
    he got off work at midnight, and he went to catch the Bart train
    at Market to go home, my friend and I grabbed him and threw him
    in front of a BART train on Market Street. They thought he
    committed suicide."

    Rodney Stich, the author of the book, states, "CIA documents in
    my possession establish his intelligence agency connections and
    officer status. Other CIA contacts confirm Agent X was CIA. He
    had nothing to gain by giving me the information that he did.
    Reference to covert CIA operatives who Agent X stated were part
    of the operation were confirmed as actual CIA operatives by
    (Gunther) Russbacher and other CIA contacts. Russbacher
    confirmed several times to me that Operation Mount Rushmore did
    exist, and that several people were killed in the operation."

    Russbacher's ONI and CIA credentials are also rigorously
    documented elsewhere in the book. When he spoke of Operation
    Mount Rushmore, he said that it was not called off, but only
    placed on hold. When asked about Russbacher's intentions, Hunt
    said, "Well, it could have been put on hold, (but) my part in it
    was pulled out."

    When contacted, Secret Service Branch of Los Angeles declined to
    comment on the story, referring the inquiry to the Public
    Affairs office in Washington, D.C. An official contacted there,
    when told about the story, denied any knowledge of it, and
    stated that if the San Francisco office were contacted, that
    they too would refer back to the Public Relations Office.

    Calls to the San Francisco Transit Authority were referred to
    thier legal department. Repeated calls to the legal department
    were not returned, though they were promised.

    Suicides are fairly common on mass transit rails. When Mr.
    Stich contacted the Transit Authority, he was sent two lists of
    names of people who comitted suicide on the lines over a several
    week period. There were more names on the second list, though
    the time frame was the same. Mr. Stich has been unable to
    confirm whether or not a security guard was among the victims,
    due to a lack of resources. He invites activist volunteers to
    assist him in this matter.

    Mr. Ferfethen was not listed with directory assistance in Napa.

    Mr. Wang's business is apparently closed for the weekend. ________________________________________________________________
