#2408: Clinton 8(a) Murders With Serco Visas –Time-Stamped Money Shots – Marine Corps Navy Clock

Brief From United States Marine Field McConnell 
Plum City Online - (AbelDanger.net
July 24, 2015

1. In February 1994, Hillary Clinton allegedly launched a mentored murder-for-hire service where Small Business Administration 8(a) protégés were issued with bogis travel documents from Serco's National Visa Cente and formed into snuff-film stealth production teams to operate remote-assassination betting pools.

2. In 1998, Clinton allegedly began preparing 8(a) snuff-film teams to time-stamp money shots of the bombing of the Pentagon's U.S. Navy Command Center on 9/11 so that bettors would know who had predicted the closest detonation times to scoop the pot.

3. On October 6, 2000, Clinton ordered Serco to equip 8(a) protégés with soon-to-be patented Navy onion router (Tor) devices and synchronize online assassinations over the Navy/Marine Corps Intranet (NMCI) with the U.S. Naval Observatory Master Clock.

Field McConnell is standing by to brief Marine Corps General Joseph Dunford before requesting from Congress an authority by way of Letters of Marque and Reprisal to confiscate any onion router devices used by Serco 8(a) associates.

General Dunford should have his MCIA colleagues check the use of Hillary Clinton's home server; Con Air aircraft bought or leased by Field McConnell sister Kristine Marcy and the Defense Red Switch Networks or N/MCI used by foreign-born members of Obama Cabinet – to synchronize assassinations of America's citizens and allies.

"Criminal Investigation Sought Into Hillary Clinton's Emails Justice Department asked to consider a criminal investigation due to concerns about mishandling of classified information 
By BYRON TAU And FELICIA SCHWARTZ 
Updated July 24, 2015 8:53 a.m. ET WASHINGTON—An internal government review of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's email archive has revealed that hundreds of those messages contain potentially classified information.

Due to concerns about the potential mishandling of classified information on Mrs. Clinton's personal email server, the inspectors general for the Department of State and intelligence community have asked the Justice Department to consider a criminal investigation, a Justice Department official said.

A memorandum from both inspectors general viewed by The Wall Street Journal found that an investigation discovered "hundreds of potentially classified emails within the collection" of Mrs. Clinton's emails.

The inspectors general also found that at least one of Mrs. Clinton’s emails already publicly released on the State Department’s website contained apparent classified information.

Mrs. Clinton "followed appropriate practices in dealing with classified materials. As has been reported on multiple occasions, any released emails deemed classified by the administration have been done so after the fact, and not at the time they were transmitted," a spokesman for Mrs. Clinton said.

News of the request for a potential criminal investigation was first reported by the New York Times.

When she was secretary of state, Mrs. Clinton used her own email account that was run through a personal server for all of her work-related correspondence. Though the arrangement was legal at the time for routine and unclassified correspondence, it has prompted questions from lawmakers and watchdogs about her compliance with federal records laws.

Mrs. Clinton has said that she preferred to use a personal server for convenience. In a March news conference, she insisted that no classified information had been sent or received from her personal email account.

"I did not email any classified material to anyone on my email. There is no classified material," she told reporters. "I'm certainly aware of the classified requirements and did not send classified material."

It isn't clear from the inspectors-general report whether the instances of classified material uncovered were considered classified at the time Mrs. Clinton sent the messages. In several instances, the State Department decided to classify an email rather than release it to the public, but the material was unclassified when she initially sent it.

"It's not uncommon that something that you're sending now on an unclassified network could in later years or later months be deemed to be classified either because the passage of time made it so or because events on the ground have borne out," a State Department spokesman said earlier this month.

Critics say that her use of the personal email address skirted government regulations and helped shield Mrs. Clinton from open records requests and federal archiving rules. Others have questioned whether a private email server was secure against espionage and hacking.

Mrs. Clinton has said she turned over all relevant federal records before deleting all of her emails from her private server. The State Department is reviewing more than 55,000 pages of emails from her personal server for eventual public release.

Already several thousand pages have been made available and more releases will occur monthly, as ordered by a federal judge as part of a continuing dispute over access to Mrs. Clinton's emails.

The email issue has become a distraction for her presidential campaign, which she launched earlier this year. At least one Republican-led congressional committee is probing her email arrangement, as well as the 2012 attacks on an American diplomatic facility in Benghazi, Libya, while Mrs. Clinton was secretary of state. The committee’s investigation is expected to continue into the fall. Just this week, the panel announced that it was ordering a top State Department official to testify about ongoing delays in turning over information.

In addition, the State Department is facing several lawsuits from advocacy groups and news organizations over access to records from Mrs. Clinton's time in office. Mrs. Clinton told CNN in an interview earlier this month: "The truth is everything I did was permitted and I went above and beyond what anybody could have expected."

"9/11 -- An Inside Job," 
by Paul Andrew Mitchell, B.A., M.S., 
Private Attorney General, 
18 U.S.C. 1964 
(3/18/2010)

There is a HUGE amount of evidence of an inside job on 9/11.

For example, our Executive Summary to the U.S. Coast Guard achieved positive identification of the Pentagon murder weapons:

An A-3 Skywarrior hit just after an AGM missile was fired from under its port wing, to soften an entrance hole for the fuselage. A key debris photo shows 2 planar fuselage sections, one of which has a telltale re-fueling line along its horizontal length:


Very few jet aircraft have rectangular fuselages; and, of those only one has an external re-fueling line.


All photos of A-3s that we have seen do show this external re-fueling line on every A-3 we have examined.


That A-3 was reportedly modified at a private airfield in Loveland, Colorado, using different [8(a)] crews to do different retrofits, e.g. avionics, weapons, remote-control, transponder beacon, etc.

It had been purchased as part of a fleet of A-3s now owned by Raytheon, a major DOD contractor. 

Gordon England, Secretary of the Navy

One USAF pilot I know told me that Captain Gerald F. DeConto was on the telephone to Gordon England, Secretary of the Navy, requesting authorization to engage the incoming, because the Pentagon's automatic fire control system had been fooled by a "friendly" transponder beacon. 


As the highest ranking officer in the Naval Command Center, DeConto and his staff must have been tracking that incoming on their in-house radar systems, and realized that the incoming jet had a friendly transponder, because the fire control system had NOT activated itself.

While England kept Captain DeConto on the telephone, evidently stalling him, DeConto and his staff were killed by the missile warhead and subsequent impact of the A-3.

The Boeing 757 seen by many eyewitnesses was timed to fly over the Pentagon at precisely the moment of the A-3's impact.

It landed at National, into the waiting arms of 94 ground crew [deployed by Clinton's 8(a) protégés through Serco's National Visa Center] who had infiltrated Dulles and National airports.

They were later deported for falsifying Social Security applications and violating immigration laws:

"The 8(a) Business Development Program assists in the development of small businesses owned and operated by individuals who are socially and economically disadvantaged, such as women and minorities. The following ethnic groups are classified as eligible: Black Americans; Hispanic Americans; Native Americans (American Indians, Eskimos, Aleuts, or Native Hawaiians); Asian Pacific Americans (persons with origins from Burma, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Brunei, Japan, China (including Hong Kong), Taiwan, Laos, Cambodia (Kampuchea), Vietnam, Korea, The Philippines, U.S. Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands (Republic of Palau), Republic of the Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, Samoa, Macao, Fiji, Tonga, Kiribati, Tuvalu, or Nauru); Subcontinent Asian Americans (persons with origins from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Bhutan, the Maldives Islands or Nepal). In 2011, the SBA, along with the FBI and the IRS, uncovered a massive scheme to defraud this program. Civilian employees of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, working in concert with an employee of Alaska Native Corporation Eyak Technology LLC allegedly submitted fraudulent bills to the program, totaling over 20 million dollars, and kept the money for their own use.[26] It also alleged that the group planned to steer a further 780 million dollars towards their favored contractor.[27]"

"Behind the Sordid World of Online Assassination Betting Jamie Bartlett I have heard rumors about this website, but I still cannot quite believe that it exists. I am looking at what I think is a hit list.

There are photographs of people I recognize—prominent politicians, mostly—and, next to each, an amount of money. The site's creator, who uses the pseudonym Kuwabatake Sanjuro, thinks that if you could pay to have someone murdered with no chance—I mean absolutely zero chance—of being caught, you would. That’s one of the reasons why he has created the Assassination Market.

There are four simple instructions listed on its front page:

Add a name to the list 
Add money to the pot in the person's name 
Predict when that person will die 
Correct predictions get the pot

The Assassination Market can't be found with a Google search. It sits on a hidden, encrypted part of the internet that, until recently, could only be accessed with a browser called The Onion Router, or Tor. Tor began life as a U.S. Naval Research Laboratory project, but today exists as a not-for-profit organization, partly funded by the U.S. government and various civil liberties groups, allowing millions of people around the world to browse the internet anonymously and securely. …

My journey took me to new places online and offline. I became the moderator of an infamous trolling group and spent weeks in forums dedicated to cutting, starving, or killing yourself. I explored the labyrinthine world of Tor Hidden Services in search of drugs, and to study child pornography networks. I witnessed online wars between neo-Nazis and antifascists on popular social media sites, and signed up to the latest porn channels to examine current trends in homemade erotica. I visited a Barcelona squat with anarchist Bitcoin programmers, run-down working men's clubs to speak to extreme nationalists, and a messy bedroom to observe three girls make a small fortune performing sexually explicit acts on camera to thousands of viewers. By exploring and comparing these worlds, I also hoped to answer a difficult question: do the features of anonymity and connectivity free the darker sides of our nature? And if so, how?"

"NMCI Navy Marine Corps Intranet. As of March 2008, NMCI included more than 363,000 computers, serving more than 707,000 Sailors, Marines and civilians in 620 locations in the continental United States, Hawaii, and Japan, making it the largest internal computer network in the world.[1] The network's 4,100 servers handle over 2.3 petabytes of data.[2]

NMCI established an interoperable command and control network that provides the IT platform necessary for transitioning to a net-centric environment.[3] Department of the Navy (DON) CIO Terry Halvorsen described NMCI as a “forcing function within the DON to attend to our legacy infrastructure of applications, servers and networks.[4]"

While recent statements by the Navy have been very positive about NMCI,[5] a 2007 survey of users reported it unstable, slow, and frustrating.[6]

"NMCI has been a hugely successful program for the Navy," Weller said during a press briefing with reporters [October 14, 2010]. "It has been a cost-effective way to deliver unprecedented level of service. We learned a lot about how to do it and how not to do it."[7]

"Anytime you transition from where you have a high degree of localized control to a high degree of centralized control, there will be some disgruntled folks," Weller said. "I think since we already are in that world, about 70 percent of the Navy's IT infrastructure, we are in a world where the Navy has complete control and authority over how we operate the network. That has allowed us to maintain extremely high degree of security, which is frankly our number one issue. The only way that we are aware of you can do that is to have tight configuration management and tight central control. So that is where a lot of the complaints came from. To that note, what have we done to lessen blow in future? I think the answer is we don't need to because we are already there."[7]

On September 30, 2010, the NMCI contract ended and the new Continuity of Services Contract (COSC) began. The COSC gives the Navy and Marine Corps the best of the current NMCI IT environment while driving operations continuity, cost savings, network control, competition and contract management. Under the COSC, the Navy retains the same scope of NMCI services with HP, but the network becomes a government-owned, contractor-supported, managed services environment.[8]

This is a paradigm shift because under the original NMCI contract, the government managed the network at a distance and did not own any IT assets used in the program.[9] Rather, they were owned by the prime contractor, and services are provided to the government on a per-seat basis. Pricing is primarily assessed on a per-machine basis that includes security services, help desk support, and periodic technology upgrades; however, fees for additional services (such as classified connectivity, mission-critical service, additional user accounts, software installation, seat moves, remote access from mobile devices, etc.) did apply.

Videophones that provide equal access for Deaf employees are not permissible under NMCI regulations. As of October 2007, the per seat price for all of NMCI was reduced by 15 percent. Desktop PCs and laptops as well as other network components are being continually upgraded in order to enhance performance and security.[3

NMCI is the first large-scale federal government IT centralization and outsourcing project. Its lessons have informed other government agency efforts to consolidate and outsource IT services. According to industry analyst Warren Suss of Suss consulting, "In the long run, government agencies will come to see the need for similar types of solutions, and I think they'll look to NMCI for lessons learned."[10]

The NMCI program is managed by the Navy's Program Executive Office–Enterprise Information Systems (PEO-EIS).

History[edit]

"On October 6, 2000, the NMCI contract was awarded to Electronic Data Systems (EDS), now HP Enterprise Services (HP).[11] Secretary of the Navy Gordon England summed up the Navy's IT Environment prior to the commencement of NMCI: "We basically had 28 separate commands budgeting, developing, licensing, and operating IT autonomously. It was inefficient and from the larger Department perspective, produced results that were far from optimal."[12]

NMCI consolidated roughly 6,000 networks—some of which could not e-mail, let alone collaborate with each other—into a single integrated and secure IT environment. HP updated more than 100,000 desktop and laptop PCs in 2007.[13] The program also consolidated an ad hoc network of more than 8,000 applications to 500 in four years and 15,003 logistics and readiness systems to 2,759 over a two-year period.[14]

Sub-contractors to HP include:

Apple Inc., Cisco, Dell, McAfee, Microsoft, Oracle Corporation, Sun Microsystems, and Symantec[15]

Harris Corporation (which acquired Multimax formerly known as Netco Government Services and WAM!NET), which provided enterprise network infrastructure design and support until its contract expired in 2014.[16]

Verizon, which provides wide area network (WAN) connectivity.

HP also provides the security services once provided by Raytheon.
   
"HP also has worked with more than 400 small businesses, with 5 percent for small disadvantaged businesses, 5 percent for women-owned small businesses and 1.5 percent for HUBZone small businesses. Since its inception, NMCI has exceeded the minimum 40% small business objective set for the contract.[17]

NMCI quickly suffered some widely publicized setbacks, including rollout delays that caused HP financial losses.[18] Today, NMCI is described in documents from the Navy's Chief Information Officer as "the core enterprise network for Navy and Marine Corps forces in the United States and Japan, providing secure access to integrated voice, video and data communications."[19]

In 2009 NMCI became the first network to deploy the Global Address List (GAL), a multiservice address list that increases interoperability by enabling Navy and Marine Corps users to access the Defense Information Systems Agency's Joint Enterprise Directory Services (JEDS) contact list.[20]

Additional improvements to network performance are also underway with the deployment of the Network Operations Common Operating Picture (NetOps COP). The tool helps provide enhanced situational awareness via increased information sharing and collaboration to commanders by giving them a common picture of network performance. Commanders can see scheduled maintenance tasks and other issues impacting the network, giving them the option to defer work that might affect the flow of critical information from the battlefield.[21]

Work in 2008 has increased NMCI's ability to respond to security issues and the program was the first network to implement fully the Department of Defense information assurance standards in both classified and unclassified environments. Among the enhancements were the deployment of Websense content filtering, an information assurance tool designed to inspect and block inbound Web traffic containing malicious code with little impact to the user. According to NMCI public affairs, "Websense allows the Network Operational Commands to set a tailored blocking policy by content such as gambling, hate speech or adult content, rather than blocking specific sites or URLs only. This allows the network operators to block sites much more efficiently and outsources the fight against the growing amount of inappropriate content."[22]

According to the Navy, Websense enables users to block or unblock sites, based on emerging and/or dynamic threats. The NMCI blocking policy is determined by various operational commands, such as the Naval Network Warfare Command, and enforced by the Global Network Operations Center, based in Norfolk. Blocked sites are redirected to a notification page which then links to a page on NMCI's homeport Web site. On this site, a user can submit a request that a site be unblocked in order to support mission requirements.[22]

In addition, NMCI is upgrading existing servers with Bluecoat proxy servers, which provides better capacity and traffic management functions. According to NMCI's own data, a few users account for the majority of NMCI's bandwidth usage, mostly attributed to streaming internet radio and video. New servers will allow bandwidth usage monitoring, down to a command or user level.[22]

The security upgrades have been well received by the Navy. On March 31, 2009, Rear Admiral (Ret.) John A. Gauss, Acquisition Director for the NGEN System Program Office (SPO) said during a press conference that "NMCI is the most secure network within the Navy."[23]

The Navy and HP measure end user satisfaction through a series of quarterly satisfaction surveys. End user satisfaction has steadily improved, reaching a high of nearly 86% in February 2008, as compared to 80% in December 2006. This is largely due to the upgrade of nearly 112,000 desktop and laptop computers in 2007, and a combination of network enhancements that are improving speed and reliability. HP is on track to upgrade another 120,000 seats in 2008 at Navy and Marine Corps bases in the US and Asia.[3]

Working in tandem with the technology refresh are the virtualization efforts on the network. NMCI is on track to move from 2,700 servers down to roughly 300. The efforts are expected to save more than $1.6 million per year in electricity costs.[24] Additionally, the decrease in the number of servers being refreshed will lower the cost of updating the equipment, leading to a potential savings of at least $1.5 million over four years.[25]

A highlight of the Navy's virtualization efforts was its win of InfoWorld’s 2009 Green 15 Award, which honors 15 companies and/or organizations for their green IT projects.[26] Ted Samson, Senior Analyst for InfoWorld said of the honorees, "This year's Green 15 winners demonstrate, once again, that green IT projects can be a win-win proposition. These organizations have not only helped the planet by reducing greenhouse gas emissions, preserving trees, and keeping e-waste out of landfills. They've also reaped measurable business benefits, such as significantly lower electricity bills, fewer hardware refreshes, and postponed datacenter-expansion projects -- along with gains in efficiency and productivity."

In 2006, the NMCI program office was criticized for its annual customer-satisfaction surveys. Officials refuse to release the raw data, leading to accusations that their conclusions are overly sunny. One NMCI director, Rear Admiral James B. Godwin III, said releasing the results would challenge the "integrity of our data." The Department of the Navy has shown no desire to scale back or cancel the program. On 24 March 2006 the Navy exercised its three-year, $3 billion option to extend the contract through September 2010.[1]

In April 2006, users began to log on with Common Access Cards (CACs), a smartcard-based logon system called the Cryptographic Log On (CLO). In October 2008, NMCI's prime contractor HP posted a set of procedures so Apple Mac users can access NMCI's public-facing Web services, such as the e-mail and calendar functions, using their CAC readers with their Macs. The workaround also works with other Defense Department CAC-enabled networks.[27] Alternatively, NMCI and all other CAC-authenicated DoD websites may be accessed using LPS-Public.

After early challenges, the Navy is pleased with the performance and security of the NMCI network. According to Capt. Tim Holland, program manager for the Navy's Next Generation Enterprise Network (NGEN), "NMCI is very robust today—we have good security with it, very good performance."[19] In an interview the DoN CIO Robert J. Carey stated, "The plan is that NGEN will be in place before the NMCI contract expires because it is not a renewable contract. According to the Navy, NMCI will serve as the baseline from which it will transition to NGEN.[19]

The Navy's confidence in NMCI today marks a significant turnaround from the challenges cited in the GAO's report of December 2006. The report states that "NMCI has not met its two strategic goals—to provide information superiority and to foster innovation via interoperability and shared services.” The document also goes on to evaluate HP's performance, "GAO's analysis of available performance data, however, showed that the Navy had met only 3 of 20 performance targets (15 percent) associated with the program's goals and nine related performance categories."

In contrast are the more recent comments from Vice Adm. Harry B. Harris Jr., deputy chief of naval operations for communication networks (OPNAV N-6) and deputy chief information officer, Department of the Navy. "I believe that NMCI in 2008 is achieving much of what we had hoped NMCI would achieve. It’s leveled the playing field for security. It's allowed us to do things like push security patches that go through the whole enterprise that’s on NMCI. If you look at NMCI historically, it was probably the first step for the Navy to move into what was then called Joint Vision 2010 and now is Joint Vision 2020. It's actually done that, and it's moving the Navy toward the U.S. Defense Department's goal of information superiority. So, I see a lot of good things with NMCI."[28]

NMCI works today and it continues to improve as user needs evolve and technology opportunities arise. During the final two years of the contract, technology initiatives included new hardware, applications, and services to support the Navy and Marine Corps' advanced IT needs. HP will install more than 110,000 new laptops and desktops, and will push more upgrades to improve end-users' IT capabilities through upgraded machine capacity, new operating systems, and new service lines.[3]

Recently, during the fourth iteration of the Kabar Leadership Training Program, Marine Corps Intelligence Seniors requested that a group of four mid-level managers examine the professional interaction between its military and civilian personnel - this request is itself a tacit acknowledgement of that perception. This paper is the result of that group’s efforts. Its purpose is to examine and confirm if friction exists between the Marine Corps Intelligence Activity's (MCIA) military and civilian workforces. Furthermore, this paper will provide evidence (or lack there of) of friction, research its cause, and provide recommendations to reduce or eliminate it. Although MCIA has existed for over 20 years, it is imperative at this juncture in its history to take a hard look at workforce interaction. The implementation of the Marine Corps Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance Enterprise (MCISR-E) combined with shrinking budgets across the federal government necessitates that the command fully understand the differences in workforce attitudes, dynamics, and how these differences impact the command’s ability to efficiently and effectively achieve mission accomplishment."

"Government still paying G4S and Serco millions for tagging despite ban Alan Travis Home affairs editor 
Thursday 25 June 2015 00.01 BST 
The Ministry of Justice is still paying security firms G4S and Serco millions of pounds every month for supplying electronic tagging equipment, more than a year after both companies were barred from running the contract.

Both companies faced criminal investigations by the Serious Fraud Office over allegations of overcharging that led to them repaying nearly £180m.

The continuing monthly payments to the two companies were uncovered by an analysis of Ministry of Justice (MoJ) data by the Centre for Crime and Justice Studies which shows that G4S was paid a total of £8.7m between March 2014 – when it lost the tagging contract – and February 2015. Serco was paid £4.5m over the same period.

The electronic monitoring tags are used to enforce curfews on more than 100,000 offenders each year. The outsourcing giant Capita took over the contract on an interim basis in April last year.

In July 2014, Capita and three other companies were named as the winners of a £265m six-year contract to supply the next generation of satellite tracking tags, which would allow dangerous and repeat offenders to be monitored around the clock."
