Accident cause of death Van Traa
From our political editors
DEN HAAG � Not an assasination, not a liquidation from the criminal world, but an accident is the cause of the death of PvdA-parliamentarian mr. M. van Traa on 21 oktober 1997.

As was made known this morning, police and legal office in Amsterdam have researched the cause of the death Van Traa. For he died under unclear circumstance on the highway at Amsterdam. There were rumours that he would have been liquidated by the criminal world. As chairman of the IRT-commissons, that researched organised crime in the Netherlands, he knew too much. Furthermore he would have been tracing another case and maintained contacts with criminals after closure of the parliamentary investigation.

According to the Amsterdam chief prosecutor J. Vrakking the investigation has irrefutably brought to light that van Traa died from an accident. He collided with the tail end of a file, then ended up in the side railing en died a few hours later from his wounds.

The April 17 1998 newspaper Reformatorisch Dagblad said van Traa was "tracing another case and maintained contacts with criminals after closure of the parliamentary investigation." He was "tracing another case and maintained contacts with criminals after closure of the parliamentary investigation" according to the April 171998 dutch newspaper Reformatorisch Dagblad.

"another case and maintained contacts with criminals after closure of the parliamentary investigation." "after closure of the parliamentary investigation." "another case."

MCC in asnwer states that Mr. van Traa was a political murder case in context of sanctioned narcotics lines. Statements made by the Amsterdam chief prosecutor J. Vrakking are much in tradition of the Haak Report, investigations in most such cases are not aimed at truth but at increasing cover-ups.

Mr. Vrakking and the investigation mentioned must be viewed in context with:

Various American and Middle Eastern sources identify Abu Fatah as hired from a contractor close to Syrian Intelligence who earlier had provided the hitteam responsible for the staged car accident that took the live of Mr. van Traa, who headed a Dutch Parliamentary Commission Of Inquiry into the Dutch leg of a sanctioned Narcotics/Weapons line via which CIA stages from Mena Arkansas were channeled into Europe and the Middle East. The Dutch leg which basically involved the Parimaribo/Rotterdam/Prestina segment became known in the Netherlands as the IRT Affair.

The contractor, Monzer al-Kassar (some background on Mr. al-Kassar), acted as the primary Middle Eastern middleman in this line, in part as a compensation for his loss of another sanctioned line which ran from Malta/Frankfurt/London to New York.

Mr. van Traa made the unfortunate mistake to aim at a degree of exposure far exceeding his mandate which turned him into a liability to be neutralized.

Result was that a team was hired in from Monzer al Kassar which staged the accident by a well know Syrian method involving a explosive charge (C4 in this case) to be placed a on (in this case) the left frontwheel suspension of the car which at a predetermined location (in this case just prior to crossing a road construction site) would be remotely triggered by a follow-up car.

Relevance to the Prof. Fortuyn case

Prof. Fortuyn, partly influenced by a Bouterse mole within his party, became overly interested in the backgrounds of the IRT Affair and attemted to pick up where Mr. van Traa had left off. His own probing and to an extend information he was feeded with from Mr. Bouterse, who had become the fallguy in the Dutch IRT cover-up, side developed plans to expose additional and highly explosive information about the IRT cover-up and the roles of prominent Dutch officials among who Mr. Teeven, Mr. Korthals, Mr. Kok, Mr. Docters van Leeuwen (ex director of BVD) as well as the roles of the CIA, DEA, CID and BVD causing what could have become a very major national and international upset, to phrase it mildly.

The Mr. Teeven, Mr. Korthals, Mr. Kok, Mr. Docters van Leeuwen aspect During the early nineties when Mr. Docters van Leeuwen was in function as Director Of BVD (now AIVD) ex Prime Minister Kok was for all intends and purposes an BVD operative who worked or facilitated in operational aspects of the Dutch leg of the sanctioned narcotics/weapons line mentioned earlier. In the context of this role Mr. Kok was faciltating not only the BVD but various foreign Intelligence services amomg which the CIA, DEA and by implication Syrian Intelligence through Monzer al Kassar. In 1993 after the IRT Affair came into the public attention Mr. Kok continued his facilitation and active involvement with the IRT cover-up.

In 1995 a deal struck between Mr. Kok and Mr. Teeven in which Teeven would would provide information about future narcotics/waepons deals ad corruption cases. In truth an axis Teeven/Kok was created allowing for the undisturbed operation of sanctioned lines as well as the provision of means to control possible leaks and oposition of members of the Dutch Political and Legal system. Spring 1999 Mr. Teeven produced and handed out to "het college van procureurs generaal" and the Minister of Justice at that time Mr. Korthals, a list containing 80 names of Dutch Politians, Judges, and high level civil servants who who found themselves in blackmailable positions. Information contained in the list rangend from sexual exploitation of minors to corruption and abuse of power. Important is that this list provided a garantee that what had to stay under wraps would stay under wraps. In addition this list, which as to this date is with Mr. Teeven, formed the foundation for the Dutch collusion-system to remain operational.

In December 1999 Minister Korthals, after an investigation into the allegations made in the Teeven Dossier, asserted that no conclusive evidence could be found for either the risk of blackmail or corruption. In effect Mr. Korthals became, as in fact he been for a long time, a co-conspirator in the Kok/Teeven/van Leeuwen/CIA/BVD/CID axis.

Where it is commonly assumed that this axis (minus the CIA which is never mentioned in this context) its main purpose was to minimize the damage suffered from the part exposure of IRT and savely keep the whole issue within the crimminal circuit rather as in the larger perspective of the CIA operated line. Mr. van Traa however proved unwilling to go along and suffered the consequences.

An important aspect of the whole was that, largely due to the efforts of Mr. Docters van Leeuwen, the surinam co-conspirator Mr. Bouterse was dumped and turned into an international crimminal to prosecuted in the Netherlands for among others his role in the shared narcotics/weapons scam. In effect Mr. Bouterse became the sacrificial lamb for the sins of the operators in the Dutch leg.

It may be obvious to even the most trusting citizen that the combination of a Dutch Secret Team and the Teeven Dossier ideal circumstances are created for the operation of a block of controllers and a climate in which cover-ups are easily maintained, by means of blackmailing potential deserters.

Relevance to the Prof. Fortuyn case revisted

As was indicated Prof. Fortuyn bursting into the political scene unaffected by prior affilication with the control structure and imune against most forms of blackmail, the fact that he was an homosexual who frequented the socalled "dark rooms" could hardly be used against him as he used to be rather loud about those aspects of his live, and determined to overthrow and/or exposing the ruling establishment for what it is, made him into a liability. This conjunction with own findings in the IRT context, Prof. Fortuyn was painfully aware of the existing conspiracy within the Kok/Teeven/van Leeuwen/Korthals/CIA/BVD/CID axis and its potential to blackmail a significant part of the Dutch Political/Juridical Establishment.

In addition, by means of Mrs. Bijlhout who remained loyal to her former employer, Prof. Fortuyn had received extremely damaging information from Mr. Bouterse, who largely for personal reason was more as only a little interested in setting the record straight, allowing him to effectively expose the full story of the Dutch leg and to make matters worse cause very serious damage to the CIA for their role in the cabal.

Most important in this context is the key position of Mr. Teeven in both cover-up and investigations. It must be most clear that the Teeven namelist is essential in this case. But not only in this but importantly so in activities and motivations of Mr. Haak and his co-conspirators/manipulators.

Exactly the interelatedness of both case in the sanctioned narcortic/weapons lines is key data of our investigations. It is reason of this coordination, timing and tactics is essential now for MCC in international perspective.

For Dutch readers we advise studying De lange schaduwen van de IRT as it is essential for understanding of functioning of the cover-up in both case of van Traa as of Prof. Fortuyn.
