A second operative in shooting ignored by police

"All the evidence we have, every single indicator
is that this is all Mr. Holmes activity, and that he
wasn't particularly aided by anyone else."

So says the policeman, who wasn't in the theater.

However, the news media interviewed several
EYEWITNESSES that say otherwise.

For your consideration...

ID check for purchase w/ $100 bill.

Issue: ID check for purchase w/ $100 bill.

Location: Chester county, Penna.

Date: Wednesday August 8th, 2012

Today, a cashier in a clothing consignment shop asked me for my driver's license when I tried to purchase a $16 pair of sunglasses using a current style (series 2006) U.S. $100 dollar bill [i.e., I had a current $100 FRN; not something out of the ordinary such as a series 1966 red seal U.S. Note].
The cashier said they have to record ones name/driver's license info when some one makes a purchase with a $100 dollar bill. She said it was policy before she started working there and she was sorry.
I told her I don't have a driver's license (a true statement because I never renewed mine since the mid-1990s when the Commonwealth of Penna. 'required' an SSN for the Driver's license).
So I took out a fifty but she said the policy also applies to purchases with $50 dollar bills. I had no smaller bills in my wallet.
The cashier then asked the manager for a waiver; but the manager said no, it was corporate policy.
I said I'd make a purchase at a food store and then return for the sunglasses. The cashier put them aside and wrapped them up in tissue paper for safe keeping. I do not fault the young lady cashier.
So I left w/o the sunglasses; changed the $100 bill elsewhere; came back with a $20 (FRN) bill and used that for the purchase.
No Driver's license inspection required for a purchase w/ a $20 bill. At least not for now?

The Dollar will Collapse shortly after the Elections

Hi Everyone:
IMO, we may see some type of an RD/RI/RV between now and September/October...to be followed approximately 30 to 60 days later, by the crash of the U.S. dollar...I continue to say BE PREPARED!!!  God will need us to be good stewards of His money, and help others during these times.
May you all be blessed in many ways!
S~  aka Feeling Blessed   :-)
P.S.  Several of you know that I continue to keep my eye on Saudi Arabia being the last country for the CIA & Muslim Brotherhood to take control over in the Middle East.  Syria was to be controlled before Saudi Arabia on this list...thus IMO...the delays of the RV...or at least the delay of the dollar crashing.

The Dollar will Collapse shortly after the Elections

Lindsey Williams Radio Liberty Interview: The Dollar will Collapse shortly after the Elections , get out of all paper assets , secure your portfolio with gold and silver , gold will still go to $3000/oz maintains Pastor Lindsey Williams and silver will go to $75/oz , regarding the wars in the middle east Lindsey Williams says that every country will be given to the Muslim brotherhood , the last country to see a revolution and go through massive chaos is Saudi Arabia , The elite are 6 months behind in their plans for the middle east , because Russia stepped in to protect Syria , that's why the oil is not $150 already , they stopped drilling for oil at the Liberty rig in Alaska until the oil price hits $150 , take advantage of the elite's problems , the US dollar is still fairly strong use it to buy real assets before the collapse

Aug 2nd 2012 Lindsey Williams Radio Liberty with Dr. Stanley Monteith - The Elite & Our Future .: this is the latest interview of Pastor Lindsey Williams so far , the key points are , the elite have stopped drilling at the Liberty rig in Alaska the largest drilling well on the surface of the earth also called Gull Island the reason is that they want the oil price to hit $150 a barrel before they will continue drilling , oil gold and silver are still cheap because the elite are 2 to 6 months behind their plans in the middle east , Gaddafi and Assad regimes did not fall as fast as they were projecting for them to fall , the elite want to turn over every country in the middle east to the Muslim brotherhood , the elite want to drown everyone and every nation in debt before they come up with a new gold based currency to replace the dollar when this one has collapsed , get out of all paper assets , and use this opportunity to buy gold and silver bullion they will be a lot more expensive before the end of 2012 says Lindsey Williams

Who is Lindsey Williams

Pastor Lindsey Williams, who has been an ordained Baptist minister for 28 years, went to Alaska in 1971 as a missionary. The Transalaska oil pipeline began its construction phase in 1974, and because of Mr. Williams' love for his country and concern for the spiritual welfare of the "pipeliners,&quot ; he volunteered to serve as Chaplain on the pipeline, with the subsequent full support of the Alyeska Pipeline Company. Because of the executive status accorded to him as Chaplain, he was given access to information documented in his eye opening book, The Energy Non-Crisis.
After numerous public speaking engagements in the western states, certain government officials and concerned individuals urged Mr. Williams to put into print what he saw and heard, stating that they felt this information was vital to national security. Mr. Williams firmly believes that whoever controls energy controls the economy. Thus, The Energy Non-Crisis.

The conspiracy theories begin: What was the mystery blotch that appears on Mars rover photo - but disappears two hours later?

Conspiracy theorists have worked themselves up into a lather over a mysterious blotch visible in the first black and white photographs taken from NASA's new Curiosity rover as it landed on Mars.

The faint but distinctive dot which can be seen on the horizon of the Red Planet was taken by a device on the $2.5 billion robot called its Hazcam and relayed by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter back to Earth.

However, two hours later when the satellite made another pass over Curiosity, the rover sent another batch of images that revealed that the blotch had eerily disappeared.

One of the first images taken by NASA's Curiosity rover: Visible in the centre of the picture on the horizon is an unexplained shape

The Internet was instantly awash with theories as to why the two photographs would be different, especially as the rover, which is the largest spacecraft ever sent to another planet, landed on its own with no direct control from NASA mission control.

Furthermore, the rover was acting autonomously, meaning that scientists did not command the robot to photograph the exact views containing the blotch.

• Curiosity sees an added dimension: First 3D images from the Martian surface beamed back to earth
• Touchdown! Wild celebrations as one-ton rover lands on Mars after 'seven minutes of terror' descent... and it has already beamed back first picture in HD

The most prominent reason discussed online for the mysterious blot is that Curiosity managed to photograph over the course of 200 milliseconds the crash-landing of the spacecraft that carried the rover to the Martian surface.

However, one engineer working on the project told the LA Times that 'would be an insane coincidence' and that the shape on the horizon was most likely dirt on the lens.

About two hours after landing on Mars and beaming back its first image, NASA's Curiosity rover transmitted a higher-resolution image of its new Martian home without the mysterious shape on the horizon

Regardless, scientists have acknowledged the fact that the blotch is there 'And then it's not' said Sarah Milkovich of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in La Canada Flintridge to the LA Times.

Yesterday morning, JPL engineers surveyed the debris from Curiosity's landing in a photograph entitled the 'crime scene' photograph.

To the southwest of the rover was the parachute that had slowed the rover's descent and to the southeast was the heat shield that Curiosity jettisoned before it began its controlled jet propelled descent.

To the northwest was the craft that had aided that landing known as the 'sky crane' which lowered Curiosity to the ground from 66-feet above the Martian surface, before shooting away to crash land.

The satellite photograph showed tht the 'Sky crane' craft had landed 2,000-feet away from the rover in the direction the camera would have been pointing when it crashed.

This graphic shows the locations of the cameras on NASAs Curiosity rover. NASAs Mars rover Curiosity, loaded with the most-sophisticated instruments ever used to explore another world, touched down on the Red Planet early Monday morning

Dusty: A view through a Hazard-Avoidance camera on NASA's Curiosity rover before and after the clear dust cover was removed. Both images were taken by a camera at the front of the rover.

This evidence has led NASA scientists to consider the original unlikely theory.

'I don't think that you can rule it out,' said Curiosity mission manager Michael Watkins.

'It bears looking into.'

This new unknown image on Mars bears similarities to the infamous 'face' that was taken by Viking 1 on July 25, 1976, that had the appearance of a humanoid face.

Sparking conspiracy theorists into believing that the face was the work of an extraterrestrial intelligence, the image was later debunked by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and Mars Global Surveyor as simply an example of pareidolia.

While scientists and amateur theorists get in on the shape's guessing game, other photographs beamed back by the rover - 352 miles through space - have sparked further curious review by scientists who say they hit far closer to home.

The famous 'face' on Mars which conspiracy theorists claimed was evidence for extraterrestrial life on the Red Planet

However more advanced imaging from orbiting satellites revealed that the face was in fact just a large rock formation on the planet's surface

'The first impression that you get is how Earth-like this seems looking at that landscape,' said chief scientist John Grotzinger of the California Institute of Technology.

Poking its head out for the first time since settling in Gale Crater on Wednesday, the car-sized rover peered around and returned a black-and-white self-portrait as well as panorama that reveals a hazy, mountainous horizon - strikingly similar to California’s Mojave Desert.

'We're looking at a place that feels really comfortable'

- Chief scientist John Grotzinger of the California Institute of Technology

'It kind of makes you feel at home,' he said. 'We're looking at a place that feels really comfortable.'

Grotzinger said he was struck by the Martian landscape, which appeared diverse. There seemed to be harder material underneath the gravelly surface, he said.

The rover has provided the best view so far of its destination since touching down on Sunday night after nailing an intricate landing onto the surface of the Red Planet. 

In the latest photos, Curiosity looked out toward the northern horizon. Nearby were scour marks in the surface blasted by thrusters, which kicked up a swirl of dust.

There were concerns that Curiosity got dusty, but scientists said that was not the case.

Earth-like landscape: This image released by NASA and taken by cameras aboard the Curiosity rover shows the Martian horizon scientists say resembles the Mojave Desert

Comparing: The Mojave Desert stretches throughout southeastern and central California as well as southern Nevada, southwestern Utah and northwestern Arizona, in the United States

'We do see a thin coating of dust, but nothing too bad,' said Justin Maki, imaging scientist at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, which manages the $2.5 billion mission.

Scientists were giddy about the scour marks because they exposed bedrock below - information that should help them better understand the landing site.

Since landing, Curiosity has zipped home a stream of low-resolution pictures taken by tiny cameras under the chassis and a camera at the end of its robotic arm, which remained stowed. It also sent back a low-quality video showing the last 2 1/2 minutes of its descent.

The rover also successfully raised its mast packed with high-resolution and navigation cameras.

With the mast up, it can begin its photographic days in force, including taking a 360-degree colour view of its surroundings as early as Thursday.

Then for the next year years it will poke through rocks and soil in search of the chemical ingredients of life.

This NASA image shows a portion of the first 360-degree panoramic view from NASA's Curiosity rover, taken with the Navigation cameras

Nasa has also revealed amazing new images from the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) camera aboard NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, which  captured the Curiosity rover and the components that helped it survive its seven-minute ordeal from space to its present location in Mars' Gale Crater.

'This latest image is another demonstration of the invaluable assistance the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter team, and its sister team with the Mars Odyssey orbiter, have provided the Curiosity rover during our early days on the Red Planet,' said Mike Watkins, mission manager for the Mars Science Laboratory mission at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena.

'The image not only satisfies our curiosity, it can provide important information on how these vital components performed during entry, descent and landing, and exactly locate the rover's touchdown site within Gale Crater.'

To the right, approximately 4,900 feet (1,500 meters) away, lies the heat shield, which protected the rover from 3,800-degree-Fahrenheit (about 2,100 degrees Celsius) temperatures encountered during its fiery descent.

On the lower left, about 2,020 feet (615 meters) away, are the parachute and back shell.

Mapped landing: This amazing image from the HiRise camera shows the Curiosity lander on Mars along with the components of its landing system

The parachute and back shell of NASA's Curiosity rover strewn across the surface of Mars.

The parachute has a constructed diameter of 71 feet (almost 21.5 meters) and an inflated diameter of 51 feet (nearly 16 meters).

The back shell remains connected to the chute via 80 suspension lines that are 165 feet (50 meters) long.

To the upper-left, approximately 2,100 feet (650 meters) away from the rover, is a discoloration of the Mars surface consistent with what would have resulted when the rocket-powered Sky Crane impacted the surface.

'This is the first of what I imagine will be many portraits HiRISE will be taking of Curiosity on the surface of Mars," said Sarah Milkovich, HiRISE investigation scientist at JPL.

'The image was taken Monday at about 10:30 p.m. Pacific when MRO was at an altitude of about 186 miles (300 kilometers), and we are getting resolution on the surface down to 1.3 feet (39 centimeters) per pixel.'

From above: Curiosity is seen photographed here by the Mars Descent Imager instrument or MARDI, showing the 15-foot (4.5-meter) diameter heat shield when it was about 50 feet (16 meters) from the spacecraft

It is the most expensive and ambitious mission yet to Mars.

Its ultimate destination is a mountain towering from the centre of the crater floor.

Preliminary estimates indicate Curiosity landed four miles away from the base of Mount Sharp, thought to contain intriguing signs of past water - a starting point to learning whether microbial life could exist.

Before the one-ton, nuclear-powered Curiosity can start roving, it has to undergo several weeks of tedious but essential health checks.

Since it was too heavy to land using traditional air bags, it used a heat shield, parachute, rockets and cables. An orbiting spacecraft spotted the discarded spacecraft hardware, including the ballast weights that were shed soon after entry into the atmosphere.

Women at the Olympic Games: are appearences deceiving?

After 82 seconds Wojdan Shaherkani had lost the battle. Her brother Hassan put his arm around her shoulder, and led her past a hundred reporters. The shouting, shoving, for the judo fighter from Saudi Arabia, the microphones stretched into the pale face. Shaherkani, 16 years old, whispered something about honor, pride, confidence. She looked away, shy, timid wanted it simple. Wojdan Shaherkani is the first Saudi Arabian woman who participated in an Olympic competition. She is the woman who has been missing, you might say. A historical latecomer. For the first time, all 204 nations are represented at the games with women. In Atlanta in 1996 had 26 teams were still all-male. In London, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Brunei and closed the gap by 4800 around 10,500 athletes are female. Wojdan Shaherkani have brought shame on Saudi Arabia, conservative Muslims complain on the internet, shame on the Arab world. Nawal El Moutawakel, the Moroccan Vice President of the International Olympic Committee, IOC, speaks of a peaceful revolution. But what is the reality? Obesity and diabetes On a gray London morning David Mepham is sitting in his glass box office and explains why even historical moments are sometimes deceptive. "The struggle of Shaherkani was a modest step", says UK director at Human Rights Watch. "We must draw attention to the everyday lives of Saudi women. They have almost no rights and are treated as second class citizens. "In Saudi Arabia, girls and women of the sport is not permitted, not in schools, clubs, gyms. Many suffer from obesity, physical inactivity, diabetes. If they work, travel, want to go to the doctor, they must present the permission of a male relative. On Wednesday, the runner Sarah Attar, the second Saudi Olympian, resigned in the run over 800 meters from the competition. Attar, 19 years old, grew up in California, she is fluent in English. It can be of her photos where she wears a headscarf. But the Olympic Committee of Saudi Arabia called for by his two female athletes, in London, "to behave appropriately Islam": concealed body and head, accompanied by a male overseer. During the opening ceremony were Shaherkani Attar and one in the back row of their teams into the stadium, behind the men. The two women had not qualified for the Games, the IOC gave them special permission - and celebrates itself as a human rights covenant. David Mepham just want to move it. It is true that Jacques Rogge, the president of the IOC, have used for the women. More important, however, the pressure of human rights organizations on the Saudi regime was. "The IOC has power," says Mephan. "It must use that power well after the Olympics when all the journalists are back home." He wants to prevent that disappear behind the wonderful story of two athletes to the real problems. The fact that the debate about extravagant headgear in judo is no room for other issues, education, care or sexuality of women: "Girls in Saudi Arabia have no opportunity to discover their talents." In the ranking of press freedom, Reporters Without Borders publishes annually, Saudi Arabia is of 179 countries evaluated in 158th place The Saudi women are a little out of their Olympic athletes who continue to live abroad. You are more likely to get the outrage of conservative forces to hear that might potentiate by government censorship. Ali Seraj Shaherkani, father of the Saudi Judo fighter, now has his home, the Home Office asked for help, he hired a lawyer and would like to punish the abuse of his daughter legally. Whether he will reply? An elite circle The Olympic idea is to peacemaking and conflict resolution, but in ancient times it was forbidden to women to visit sports sites. Even Pierre de Coubertin, founder of the modern games, saw no place for women. The Greek STAMATA Revithi 1896 still took part in the marathon at the premiere, but in 1984 the track was for women officially Olympics. "The IOC was an elite circle of industrialists and aristocrats," says the historian Jutta Braun from the center of Berlin German sports history. "They thought that physical activity could distort the girl's face and would degrade the ability to give birth." Long had the women in the Olympics behind walls or bushes move to avoid being seen by men. The newspapers reported that Miss efficient, they named their first names, because they believed otherwise embarrass their husbands. "The Nazi regime was seen as important sport," says Jutta Braun, "for the strengthening of the female body in motherhood." After the war, opened more sports for women, but soccer was forbidden for them until 1970. Women had to work hard for every Olympic sport in London, they closed the final gap, they are now also approved for boxing. At the Winter Games in Sochi in two years, they must first jump off the hill. Proud of the United States and Canada have indicated to have been nominated for this summer, more women than men. The British also published many articles on their athletes, 262 are in the process, which corresponds to a share of 48 percent. "Olympics for the girls," headlines the Observer. "As the British team falls in love with his feminine side." There is a forecast that British women have won more medals than men for the first time. Tim Woodhouse is often asked by journalists to participate in these bills, but he is then the question of what is to be permanently. Woodhouse works for the Women's Sport and Fitness Foundation, the WSFF, his office is located at the Victoria House on Bloomsbury Square to send, where to use a number of initiatives for grassroots sport. "Two weeks Olympia can no equality between women and men bring in the sport," says Woodhouse. "But they give us a boost and can make the distance between the sexes are smaller." Woodhouse can recite all British winners of medals, but he also has statistics at hand, which is lost in patriotic gold cry: According to the World Health Organization in 2011, twelve percent of British girls in the age of fourteen were regularly active, were with the boys twice as many . Above all Muslim girls are underrepresented. Twelve percent of British women do three times per week sports, for men it is twenty percent. Sponsors of the funds for the Sport 0.5 percent to flow to women. Half of the girls surveyed had at the Olympics, having no sporting role models. Maybe they would now opt for the cyclist Elizabeth Armitstead, who won the first medal for the host and spoke of a satisfaction, "after all the sexism." Armitstead received many interview requests, in detail, it has not expressed. Tim Woodhouse is not surprised that he knows the pressures of the business: "We find it hard to motivate girls to amateur sport. We need coaches and referees - and sponsors, "The London Organising Committee has always attached high priority to balance in its structures.. Whether this signal will arrive at the base? Tim Woodhouse will now take advantage of the public to make known to his foundation. "Many people see for the first time that even women run fast and jump high." Maybe one or the other school director for the Olympic crowds interested in a girls' sport-AG, at a basketball camp weekend, a mother- daughter-race. Perhaps Britain will also be annoyed by all the directors of the continuous sound of "Higher, Faster, More". More millionaires than women Tim Woodhouse is no walk in the close quarters of an hour Berry Street to Fawcett Society, the maybe the most influential women rights organization in England. The company takes its name from Millicent Garrett Fawcett, who had used the early twentieth century for suffrage, education and political participation of women. The staff of Fawcett would be unable to give the Olympics, they have seen too many media cycles, which stood in the way of objective debate. Olympia, they seem to feel rather than a hindrance. The activist Preethi Sundaram agrees to speak at least on the political discrimination: "The British government sit more millionaires than women in parliament and only every fifth member is female." This proportion Westminster is ranked 56th globally In the British economy were only thirteen percent of board members are women, the Fawcett Society calls for balanced conditions in 2020: "Everywhere where important decisions are made for the population, we have a shortage of women. This is unhealthy for a democracy that has an impact on the diversity of a society. " With the exception of the Social Democratic Labour Party had no political movement developed a real strategy for increasing women, says Sundaram. Are debates like these are available in half of Europe, including Germany. And now for just a couple of medals in the rings of this climate change thing? Preethi Sundaram incredulous smiles, looks at the clock and says gently, she had no time. It is almost impossible to find an Olympic athlete who wants to go public with the sporting machismo into judgment, too great is the fear of the loss of sponsors. According to Star magazine is to create only two women among the one hundred highest paid athletes in the world. A study by the Sports University in Cologne, according to the percentage of women sports reporters is five to 15 percent. "As a woman you can in this male-emphasized marketing world can score high if they take your skin to the market," says Imke Duplitzer, one of the most successful fencers of Germany and a participant in London. "Services are nice, but not so critical." In beach volleyball officials have decided that players have to wear a bikini pants, seven inches wide, alternatively, a mini skirt or pants, even at the Olympics can click them on the Internet dozens of photo galleries. Prior to the World Cup last year, the women on the German glossy posters to see, especially the attractive reserve player Fatmire Bajramaj, adorned with the slogan "20ELEVEN at its best." The accurate, but rather inconspicuous captain Birgit Prinz was in advertising barely watch. Researchers at the Sports University in Cologne certify Sexualisierungsdruck a marketing and media. Since 1995, Germany pulled in more than fifty athletes for Playboy. Male Performance Standard In sports, the male determines the performance standard that women are more facade than in politics and business. The International Olympic Committee wants to make the audience anyway, that softens the Olympics gender boundaries. The images of the Saudi judoka Wojdan Shaherkani will see probably in the year to each review, as a historical legacy of the Games. Not shown are the then Iranian footballers. They could not qualify for the Olympics last year, as the world governing body Fifa, the kicking was not allowed to wear headscarves. Jacques Rogge, the chief guardian of the Olympic Games is not tired of talking about the Olympic feminine. Recently, the IOC has added two more female members. 22 women now sit on the committee - and almost five times as many men. From german with automated translaters

NASA says: Cold Fusion, the holy grail of energy production is a reality NOW

Posted By: MESETA [Send E-Mail]
Date: Thursday, 9-Aug-2012 09:31:21

The Italian physicist Andrea Rossi presented last year, a device called E-Cat to the public, which with the help of cold fusion generates steam and electricity. The environmentally friendly method is based on the conversion of hydrogen to nickel and copper. The resulting heat is used to evaporate water and to drive a turbine which then generates electricity. The media had ridiculed the physicist still recently , when he presented his invention. Now, NASA has made ​​its views public, and confirmed that the procedure invented/reproduced by Rossi works. Since its publication last year, its efficiency could be further optimized. In the meanwhile Rossi also found an anonymous buyer. Rossi currently has patent protection in Italy, but still no international patent. Such an innovation could solve our energy problems in the long term but also be a thorn in the eye for the energy and oil companies. from german with automated translaters

High Ranking Mexican Drug Cartel Member Makes Explosive Allegation: ‘Fast and Furious’ Is Not What You Think It Is

High Ranking Mexican Drug Cartel Member Makes Explosive Allegation: ‘Fast and Furious’ Is Not What You Think It Is

• Posted on August 9, 2012 at 8:00am by Jason Howerton»

A high-ranking Mexican drug cartel operative currently in U.S. custody is making startling allegations that the failed federal gun-walking operation known as “Fast and Furious” isn’t what you think it is.
It wasn’t about tracking guns, it was about supplying them — all part of an elaborate agreement between the U.S. government and Mexico’s powerful Sinaloa Cartel to take down rival cartels.
The explosive allegations are being made by Jesus Vicente Zambada-Niebla, known as the Sinaloa Cartel’s “logistics coordinator.” He was extradited to the Chicago last year to face federal drug charges.

Jesus Vincente Zambada-Niebla (Source: MSNBC)

Zambada-Niebla claims that under a “divide and conquer” strategy, the U.S. helped finance and arm the Sinaloa Cartel through Operation Fast and Furious in exchange for information that allowed the DEA, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and other federal agencies to take down rival drug cartels. The Sinaloa Cartel was allegedly permitted to traffic massive amounts of drugs across the U.S. border from 2004 to 2009 as long as the intel kept coming.
This pending court case against Zambada-Niebla is being closely monitored by some members of Congress, who expect potential legal ramifications if any of his claims are substantiated. The trial was delayed but is now scheduled to begin on Oct. 9.
Zambada-Niebla is reportedly a close associate of Sinaloa Cartel kingpin Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman and the son of Ismael “Mayo” Zambada-Garcia, both of which remain fugitives, likely because of the deal made with the DEA, federal court documents allege.

Based on the alleged agreement ”the Sinaloa Cartel under the leadership of defendant’s father, Ismael Zambada-Niebla and ‘Chapo’ Guzman, were given carte blanche to continue to smuggle tons of illicit drugs into Chicago and the rest of the United States and were also protected by the United States government from arrest and prosecution in return for providing information against rival cartels which helped Mexican and United States authorities capture or kill thousands of rival cartel members,” states a motion for discovery filed in U.S. District Court by Zambada-Niebla’s attorney in July 2011.

A source in Congress, who spoke to TheBlaze on the condition of anonymity, said that some top congressional investigators have been keeping “one eye on the case.” Another two members of Congress, both lead Fast and Furious Congressional investigators, told TheBlaze they had never even heard of the case.
One of the Congressmen, who also spoke to TheBlaze on the condition of anonymity because criminal proceedings are still ongoing, called the allegations “disturbing.” He said Congress will likely get involved once Zambada-Niebla’s trial has concluded if any compelling information surfaces.
“Congress won’t get involved in really any criminal case until the trial is over and the smoke has cleared,” he added. “If the allegations prove to hold any truth, there will be some serious legal ramifications.”
Earlier this month, two men in Texas were sentenced to 70 and 80 months in prison after pleading guilty to attempting to export 147 assault rifles and thousands of rounds of ammunition to Mexico’s Los Zetas cartel. Compare that to the roughly 2,000 firearms reportedly “walked” in Fast and Furious, which were used in the murders of hundreds of Mexican citizens and U.S. Border Agent Brian Terry, and some U.S. officials could potentially face jail time if they knowingly armed the Sinaloa Cartel and allowed guns to cross into Mexico.
If proven in court, such an agreement between U.S. law enforcement agencies and a Mexican cartel could potentially mar both the Bush and Obama administrations. The federal government is denying all of Zambada-Niebla’s allegations and contend that no official immunity deal was agreed upon.
To be sure, Zambada-Niebla is a member of one of the most ruthless drug gangs in all of Mexico, so there is a chance that he is saying whatever it takes to reduce his sentence, which will likely be hefty. However, Congress and the media have a duty to prove without a reasonable doubt that there is no truth in his allegations. So far, that has not been achieved.
Zambada-Niebla was reportedly responsible for coordinating all of the Sinaloa Cartel’s multi-ton drug shipments from Central and South American countries, through Mexico, and into the United States. To accomplish this, he used every tool at his disposal: Boeing 747 cargo planes, narco-submarines, container ships, speed boats, fishing vessels, buses, rail cars, tractor trailers and automobiles. But Guzman and Zambada-Niebla’s overwhelming success within the Sinaloa Cartel was largely due to the arrests and dismantling of many of their competitors and their booming businesses in the U.S. from 2004 to 2009 — around the same time ATF’s gun-walking operations were in full swing. Fast and Furious reportedly began in 2009 and continued into early 2011.

The claims seem to fall in line with statements made last month by Guillermo Terrazas Villanueva, a spokesman for the Chihuahua state government in northern Mexico who said U.S. agencies ”don’t fight drug traffickers,“ instead ”they try to manage the drug trade.”
Also, U.S. officials have previously acknowledged working with the Sinaloa Cartel through another informant, Humberto Loya-Castro. He is also allegedly a high-ranking member of the Sinaloa Cartel as well as a close confidant and lawyer of “El Chapo” Guzman.

Loya-Castro was indicted along with Chapo and Mayo in 1995 in the Southern District of California in a massive narcotics trafficking conspiracy (Case no. 95CR0973). The case was dismissed in 2008 at the request of prosecutors after Loya became an informant for the United States government and subsequently provided information for years.
In 2005, “the CS (informant Loya-Castro) signed a cooperation agreement with the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of California,” states an affidavit filed in the Zambada-Niebla case by Loya-Castro’s handler, DEA agent Manuel Castanon.
“Thereafter, I began to work with the CS. Over the years, the CS’ cooperation resulted in the seizure of several significant loads of narcotics and precursor chemicals. The CS’ cooperation also resulted in other real-time intelligence that was very useful to the United States government.”
Under the alleged agreement with U.S. agencies, “the Sinaloa Cartel, through Loya-Castro, was to provide information accumulated by Mayo, Chapo, and others, against rival Mexican Drug Trafficking Organizations to the United States government,” a motion for discovery states.
In return, the United States government allegedly agreed to dismiss the charges in the pending case against Loya-Castro (which they did), not to interfere with his drug trafficking activities and those of the Sinaloa Cartel and not actively prosecute him or the Sinaloa Cartel leadership.
Taken directly from the motion filed in federal court:

“This strategy, which he calls ‘Divide & Conquer,’ using one drug organization to help against others, is exactly what the Justice Department and its various agencies have implemented in Mexico. In this case, they entered into an agreement with the leadership of the Sinaloa Cartel through, among others, Humberto Loya-Castro, to receive their help in the United States government’s efforts to destroy other cartels.”
“Indeed, United States government agents aided the leaders of the Sinaloa Cartel.”

The government has denied this and says the deal did not go past Loya-Castro.
Zambada-Niebla was arrested by Mexican soldiers in late March of 2009 after he met with DEA agents at a Mexico City hotel in a meeting arranged by Loya-Castro, though the U.S. government was not involved in his arrest. He was extradited to Chicago to face federal drug charges on Feb. 18, 2010. He is now being held in a Michigan prison after requesting to be moved from Chicago.
“Classified Materials”
During his initial court proceedings, Zambada-Niebla continually stated that he was granted full immunity by the DEA in exchange for his cooperation. The agency, however, argues that an “official” immunity deal was never established though they admit he may have acted as an informant.
Zambada-Niebla and his legal council also requested records about Operation Fast and Furious, which permitted weapons purchased in the United States to be illegally smuggled into Mexico, sometimes by paid U.S. informants and cartel leaders. Their request was denied. From the defense motion:

“It is estimated that approximately 3,000 people were killed in Mexico as a result of ‘Operation Fast and Furious,’ including law enforcement officers in the state of Sinaloa, Mexico, the headquarters of the Sinaloa cartel. The Department of Justice’s leadership apparently saw this as an ingenious way of combating drug cartel activities.”
“It has recently been disclosed that in addition to the above-referenced problems with ‘Operation Fast & Furious,’ the DOJ, DEA, and the FBI knew that some of the people who were receiving the weapons that were being allowed to be transported to Mexico, were in fact informants working for those organizations and included some of the leaders of the cartels.”

Zambada’s attorney has filed several motions for discovery to that effect in Illinois Federal District Court, which were summarily denied by the presiding judge who claimed the defendant failed to make the case that he was actually a DEA informant.
In April, 2012, a federal judge refused to dismiss charges against him.
From a Chicago Sun Times report: “According to the government, [Zambada-Niebla] conveyed his interest and willingness to cooperate with the U.S. government, but the DEA agents told him they ‘were not authorized to meet with him, much less have substantive discussions with him,’” the judge wrote.

In their official response to Zambada-Niebla’s motion for discovery, the federal government confirmed the existence of “classified materials” regarding the case but argued they “do not support the defendant’s claim that he was promised immunity or public authority for his actions.”
Experts have expressed doubts that Zambada-Niebla had an official agreement with the U.S. government, however, agree Loya Castro probably did. Either way, the defense still wants to obtain DEA reports that detail the agency’s relationship with the Sinaloa Cartel and put the agents on the stand, under oath to testify.
The documents that detail the relationship between the federal government and the Sinaloa Cartel have still not been released or subjected to review — citing matters of national security.
