SECRETS OF THE L.A. RIOTS -- INTERLUDE
======================================
[Editor's note: I received the following from a reader of
Conspiracy Nation; it gives extra background on supposed
"spontaneous" urban riots.]
Dear Sir,
I have been reading your articles for about a year and a half and
I wish to thank you for the work you are doing. It takes a lot
of courage to do what you are doing, please take care.
The recent article [Secrets of the L.A. Riots] has raised certain
questions in my mind. First, have you seen the professionally
prepared documentary on the history of Watts? I mention this
because there are references in there to a long history of
government programs to bring down any black power base,
especially in bringing down the Panthers. And, lo and behold,
there is related in this video about how someone, parties
unknown, left weapons out for all in the Watts ghetto to take.
In the first L.A. riot in the sixties they were left in white
vans. Just prior to the King riot they were left in boxcars (!)
on SP-owned sidings. [1] The documentary has this charge (about
the boxcars of weapons) being repeated by former U.N. Ambassador
Andrew Young. This would seem to corroborate what you are
writing.
Also, I have been told by a person whose name I can no longer
remember, and what with the only person I know who could tell me
the name on the run from our friendly government, I can no longer
verify the following: When the Waco siege was just under way
this guy got into the compound and interviewed several of the
Davidians (it may also be that he interviewed by phone, at this
point I'm not sure) and was told that one of the Davidians (the
Harvard-educated Black guy, I cannot remember his name) had
hacked into Pentagon and L.A.P.D. computers. The Pentagon files
revealed a list of weapons confiscated by the Israelis in the
Lebanon incursion (I'm not sure why they would have them except
that some of these weapons were eventually put into the hands of
the contras, as was reported in the NY Times about six months
after the Grenada invasion, where, I believe, these same weapons
were used to fill the warehouses for the photo-op session three
days later). They were able to hack the LAPD records of weapons
confiscated from crimes and came up with a number of matches to
the Pentagon records. I can only assume that, if this is indeed
true, that this would have been one of the reasons to so savagely
go after the Davidians. Have you heard any thing of this?
Again, it lines up with the revelations in your article.
Finally, I have talked with the editor of a local left-wing
magazine who related information she received from a prisoner
formerly in Pelican Bay. Apparently the prisoner, with not much
else to do, decided to do an FOIA request for any documents on
the Bloods or the Crips. In the letter to this editor was a copy
of a document from the FBI on an operation in the LA ghetto that
was given the acronym CRIPS, something like "community reources
in the private sector", that was to organize Black teenagers. My
friend has been sitting on this information for years and is
quite afraid of what may happen to anyone who would release this.
I can't say as I blame my friend. But this may be an avenue of
investigation you may want to pursue.
Anyway, it will be interesting to see where this all gets to; I
doubt very far. The people of this country are so asleep. Keep
up the good work.

[1] In the 1960s, CIA ran a domestic operation called "Operation
CHAOS," which partly involved the placement of covert operators
into groups expressing dissent with U.S. government policies.
Some of these covert operators were federally funded, with the
money "filtered through Chicago Mayor Richard Daley's antipoverty
organization, and that the members included individuals from one
of Chicago's most feared street gangs -- the Blackstone Rangers."
