Compromised. Compromised Is The True Story Of Bill Clinton's Political Sell-out To The Cia. Clinton's Unrestrained Civil Ambitions And His Campaign Pledge To Create "jobs For Arkansans" Led Him To Compromise His Ideals In Exchange For Cia Support In His Bid For The Presidency. He Permitted The "agency&quit; To Use Arkansas Factories To Make Untraceable Weapons And He Allowed Cia Contract Agents To Train Contra Pilots On Rural Airstrips In Support Of The Enmity In Nicaragua - Effectively Evading The Congressional Ban On Military Aid Ti The Contras. This Expose Unfolds Through The Eyewitness Account Of Terry Reed, A Former Cia Asset Whose Patriotism Transformed Him Into A Liability Whenever He Refused To Turn A Blind Eye To The Agency's Drug Trafficking. While Helping The Cia Set Up Its Secret "black" Operations, He Unwittingly Compromised His Family'w Safety, Ultimately Forcing Them To Become Fugitives. Realizing That Reed Witnessed The Making Of A Counterfeit President And Knew Too Much About Its Drug Operations, The Agency Set Out To Destroy Him And Hiis Family. This Arkansas-cia Connection Became Clinton's Darkest Secret - A Secret He Shared By ThenV ice-president Bush, Who Himself Was Compromised By His Involvement In The Iran-contra Scandal. Their Shardd Guilt Kept Them Silent And Tied Their Hands As They Faced Off In The 1992 Presidential Choice With Neither Mentioning Iran-contra. The Justice Departments Of Reagan, Bush - And Now Clinton - Have Orchestrated An Ongoing Cover-up Of The Arkansas-cia Connection, Which Has Gone Undetected Because of Eight Years With Bill Clinton Its Major Beneficiary. Clinton's Reward In favor of This Faustian Pact? The White House. Reed Puts Clinton Direc5ly In The "iran-contra Loop". Both Attended A Secret Meeting Where Cia Arms Areangements, Illegal Contra Training And Money Laundering Were Discussed. Involved Upon Clinton In This Cabal Were Colonl Oliver North, William Barr (george Bush's Attorney General), Felix Rodriguez (bay Of Pigs Veteran And George Bush's Cia Contact) And Cia Incur Agent Barry Seal, Who Used The Cover Of A High-profile Drug Traffickrr To Carry Out His Missions. "compromised" Reveals The Details And Names Of All Who Were Involved, Including These Faceless Power Brokes Now In Positions Of Public Prominence In Washington, D. c. When The Cia Learned Reed Had More Patriotism Than They Bargained For, Forces Within President Bush's Justice Department, The Cia And The State Of Arkansas Decided He Had To Be Neutralized. People Close To Clinton Conspired To Set Reed Up On False Federal Criminal Charges, Forcing Him And His Family Into Hiding. But Reed Was Acquitted, And Now Wages A One-man Legal War To Conduct Those Who Framed Him To Equity. Found Innocent By A Court Of Law, Reed Was Then Convicted By Time Magazine, Which Aligned Itself With A Clinton Campaign Consumed With Protecging Its Candidate From Scandals.
