 may rise to a flood came from a reliable source. It was conveyed to Bush a
 few days ago by Prof. Mikhail Kazachkov, a noted Russian scientist, who made
 a recent research trip to Moscow for the Harvard Law School, White House
 sources say.

   What the Bush administration particularly fears is that beyond revealing
 past collusion and wrongdoing among Washington's inner circles, the leaked
 Soviet documents will highlight current scandals that have been hidden from
 the U.S. news public.

 TYPICAL SCENARIO:

   A typical KGB case file, diplomatic sources say, might trace the trail of a
 bomb smuggled into the luggage compartment of a passenger aircraft in the
 following scenario:

   As a charge explodes, the giant jetliner breaks apart in the sky and plunges
 to earth, killing all aboard. The bereaved families of the victims and their
 government blame a notorious secret service for this terrorist outrage and
 demand the extradition of two undercover agents who allegedly placed the bomb
 aboard the aircraft.

   But the powerful secret service chief protects his agents, hides them behind
 cover jobs, blocks all extradition demands and finally frames an innocent man
 for the crime, thus aborting any hope for justice.

   This case history does not refer to an Arab nation such as Libya or Syria.
 The secret service chief behind the two murderous undercover agents is George
 Bush, former director of the CIA. The scenario is an accurate description
 of how a Cuban Airlines flight, No. 455, was downed over Barbados on October
 6, 1976 by two CIA operatives identified as Luis Posada and Freddy Lugo.
 Sprung from prison, reportedly on direct orders from Bush, Posada still works
 for the CIA in an undercover Latin American job, sources have told The Spot-
 light.

   An innocent anti-Castro militant, Orlando Bosch, framed by the CIA, spent
 more than a decade in prison for the crime he did not commit.

   Ironically, Bush did not order the downing of the Cuban airliner. The CIA's
 plan was to explode the bomb as the plane was being refueled on the ground
 at Seawell Airport in Barbados, thus causing embarrassment and disruption to
 Cuba's communist government, rather than human casualties. But the operation,
 like innumerable other CIA schemes, went awry: Disaster was the result. Bush,
 who was serving as the CIA's top boss at the time, was directly responsible.

 SAUCE FOR THE GOOSE:

   The Bush administration is now demanding the extradition of two alleged
 Libyan undercover agents accused of having been involved in the tragic downing
 of a Pan Am jetliner over Lockerbie, Scotland two years ago. Libya has arreste

 the two men and has invited international jurists to act as observers of its
 investigation of the case. But Bush wants the two suspects, and their chief,
 extradited.

   "If the UN orders the Libyans to hand over these citizens, should it also
 order Bush and his former agents extradited to Cuba for the downing of [Cuban
 Airlines flight No. 455]?" asked an Arab delegate at the world forum.

   Anxious to avoid confronting such questions, the White House is even more
 apprehensive about possible Soviet disclosures of corruption cases netting
 billions in shady profits to administration insiders.

   In 1985 and 1986, the CIA began to issue --- and subsequently to circulate
 in declassified version ---- voluminous intelligence estimates Latin America
 was in dire straits, with Mexico, in particular, confronting "the imminent
 breakdown of its exhausted national economy."

   The CIA's dark forecasts added to Mexico's troubles. Foreign investors fled,
 as did the capital of local elites. In Washington, intelligence analysts who
 pointed out the pessimistic CIA estimates were unfounded and misleading were
 silenced with the message: "These memoranda were prepared on direct White
 House orders."

   The protesting analysts were proven right: Mexico recovered, but not before
 U.S. entrepreneurs --- many with reported ties to the White House --- bought
 up billions of dollars' worth of assets in that large country at bargain
 prices that were further depressed by the CIA's ominous forecasts about an
 imminent collapse.

   "Banks, phone companies, large estates, industrial ventures were sold to a
 ring of insider investors from Washington at desperation prices," says former
 State Department intelligence analyst Trevor Petrie. "The CIA furnished the
 fraudulent setup for a vast international scam that will net its beneficiaries
 billions of dollars in coming years."

   KGB revelations may even affect current criminal cases here, UN sources
 suggest. One such case concerns Panama, whose drug-dealing former dictator,
 Gen. Manuel Noriega, is now on trial in a Miami federal court. New light
 thrown on another crisis may prove the sordid Panama mess was the CIA's fault
 as much as Noriega's.

 PUPPET SCAM BACKFIRES:

   In Zaire, where the CIA has installed and maintained in power a corrupt
 military dictator resembling Noriega, Mobutu Sese Seko, the Bush administra-
 tion now faces a crisis very similiar to the Reagan regime's long drawn-out
 Noriega troubles. After running a regime even more brutal and oppresive than
 Panama's and looting his country on a larger scale than Noriega ever did,
 Mobutu is on the skids. The United States, anxious to see him go, has been
 prodding and urging Mobutu to hand over power to the opposition and retire
 into a billionaire's comfortable exile.

   But Mobutu, much like Noriega, has entrusted his personal safety to an elite
 guard battalion trained and armed by Israeli agents. "Advisors" from the
 Mossad, the Mideast ministate's secret service, are in charge of Mobutu's
 security apparatus, Mobutu has defied every argument and pressure the White
 House has mustered for his ouster.

   "Apparently, as in the Noriega case, direct military intervention will be
 necessary to remove this corrupt CIA puppet," Petrie said. "The details of
 the Zaire crisis suggest the scandalous Panama affair was not simply a case
 of Noriega's crooked rule. The main blame for these criminal and obstinate
 tyrannies should rest where it belongs --- in Washington. Bush wants to dodge
 that liability at all costs --- at least until this year's elections are over.
