Iran-Contra Hearings Day 1 Part 1: Daniel Inouye Opening Statement (1987)

[4624tone]

EVERY SINGLE AMERICAN SHOULD ATLEAST SEE THIS OPENING, EVEN MEMORIZE IT, LAST FEW pREZ's HAVE FORGOT THESE AMERICAN WAYS!!

[PDSalling]

Senator Inouye seems to have missed the lecture delivered by former President Dwight Eisenhower regarding the perils of an unchecked 'Military Industrial Complex and the potential for undue-influence being exerted on American 'policy'. If you can't be part of the solution, you CAN be part of the problem !.

Does anyone know where I can purchase these hearings?

scum of the new world order. He needs to live in prison for life

Everybody forgot about this, Miami Vice was too distracting. Reagan's term as president ended with the highest approval rating since FDR.

I was the translator mentioned by Oliver North during these hearings. He fired me in 1985 because I couldn't translate in 3 Nicaraguan Indian dialects; Sumo,Moskito and Rama IN ADDITION TO THE ALREADY 6 LANGUAGES I WAS DOING! Does anyone know offhand on which day of the hearings North testified about his translator in Costa Rica or where the written transcripts can be downloaded? I don't want to have to listen to every hour of the hearings! Thanks!

By the way, I quit working for the Contra when I found out that they, and the CIA, were flying tons of cocaine to the United States to circumvent the cancellation of aid to the Contras when the US Congress passed the Boland Amendment. I have the names of the pilots and their own handwritten notes. I was there, believe me, the US government is totally responsible for 90% of the cocaine and heroin that enters the US -THEY PROTECTED THE FLIGHTS AND EVEN PAID BRIBES TO COSTA RICAN OFFICIALS!

God how terrible. A sad part in American history for sure but we need to learn from out mistakes.

@USStateSponTerrorism

I hear that this stuff is still going on today, just not with Iran.

[USStateSponTerrorism]

@DominoChild Yes, It never stopped except for about 6 months (in Costa Rica). The US government has been doing this and much more for many, many years. We have a criminal government. I was the translator for Oliver North during the Iran Contra scandal. I translated for the FDN, later called the RN, UNO, and other groups. North fired me when I told him I couldn't translate Nicaraguan Indian dialects. He talked about it during these hearings but I don't know in which video.

"gained national attention for his service on the Senate Watergate Committee." These committees and commissions keep letting the greatest criminals go free for the highest crimes against their country .......

@IranContraScumDid911

Maybe if the country wasnt as racist at the time he would have gotten national attention for saving his country men and getting his arm blow off to save your freedom. So next time you talk so big i want you to hold up the body part you lost fighting for this country.

[IranContraScumDid911]

@superawsomekaratekid I served, so did my dad, so did my grandfather, as well as my great-grandfather ..... all in foreign wars. You can blow me fool.

[superawsomekaratekid]

@IranContraScumDid911

Apparently you missed my point. But let me first say thank you and your entire family for your service and dedication to keeping America a free country. Without people like you serving our country would cease to exist.

[superawsomekaratekid]

@IranContraScumDid911 The point that I was trying to get a across was not to belittle your service but to make clear that it is wrong to insult that a man who served his country both domestically and over seas is unwarranted and that all he has strived to make this country a better place. Serving a country who at the time thought him the enemy

[IranContraScumDid911]

@superawsomekaratekid The fact these criminals did not serve a day in jail and he did not say a word ever again tells me quite a bit. I also respect his service, but that does not excuse him from knowing the full truth about a criminal coup within our government by the greatest killer lying scum ever to grace DC. The same folks Inouye (and Kerry) let off the hook are the men you are rebuilding the middle east for with loans from enemy China. The people behind this plot DID 9/11. TREASON!
