Iran Contra
AAmericans will never make concessions to terrorist, To do so would only invite more terrorism- once we head down that path there would be no end to it, no end to the suffering of innocent people, no end to the bloody ransom all civilized people must pay.@Ronald Reagan, June 18, 1985. (Truth is Stranger...) The Reagan Administration supposedly promised this to their American citizens. Along with many other Western countries on terrorism acts. Though our own government went behind our backs to develop a secret deal, the selling of arms for hostages can be justified. Though using that money to contribute to hundreds of thousands of deaths is morally wrong. For all the administrators that helped contribute to this horrible affair one distinct person is repeatedly overlooked. The one who repeatedly preached AI was out of the loop...@ (New Yorker...)

So yes, Bush might not have known of such a scandal since it was not Asupposedly@ ! $8 billion in super bills being held in Banco Nacional de Panama. Bush=s whole denial of being out of the loop can and was proven in court. Though true or not his story could have been kept secret by Poindexter=s testimony in court. The admiral was asked whether the president was notified of the affair. Poindexter, supposedly being a man of loyalty, said; !
