The JFK Plot?

June 3rd, 2007

By Rowan Wolf

Unless you have ardently avoided the news this weekend, you know that an alleged plot to blow up the jet fuel pipelines at JFK Airport was broken up this weekend. The story, and the likely scale of the threat, get more and more interesting.

The pundits seem to believe that the damage would likely have been limited. For example, the 40 mile stretch of the pipelines would likely not have blown up in the explosion. Certainly, a major explosion at JFK would be disastrous.

The plot was that - a plot. Though from the news reports one would have thought they were caught lighting the fuse. It remains to be seen whether this was any more serious than the plot by the guys from Florida.

The real surprise is that one of the “plotters” (Russell Defreitas, a US citizen and native of Guyana) purportedly worked for Evergreen Eagle - a cargo handling branch of Evergreen Aviation. Living in Oregon, this angle is being repeated on every local news report.

If Evergreen Aviation rings a bell, it is likely because it has long ties to the CIA. While some have reported that Evergreen is a front business for the CIA, one thing that is relatively solid is that the CIA has utilized Evergreen for covert operations.

The revelation that the investigation has uncovered that of one of the “plotters” was linked back to Evergreen raises a number of questions. So was Defreitas really a plotter, or was he an informant? Was there really a legitimate plot, or was this an effort to bring potential “plotters” out of the woodwork? Was the whole thing a whole cloth fabrication?

The odds are we won’t know for quite some time - if at all. Any of the above possibilities seem as likely as Defreitas somehow slipping under the radar of the CIA.
