Postscript: Who Murdered William Colby?

New information has belatedly crossed our desk which prompts us to update our thesis about the unexpected death in 1996 of former CIA Director William Colby. Although we accused CIA of murdering one of its own, we did not give proper credit to Mossad.

Chronicle readers may recall that Colby conveniently died the day before he was scheduled to give testimony to Congress with some observers fearing that he might say something a little too truthy. It is not that Colby was an American hero or a good goy, but that he wasn't sufficiently reliable to put in front of Congress - he might accidentally spill the beans on something - My Lai, Viet Nam, Kennedy Assassination, Tailhook - God only know what might drift inadvertently from his wagging tongue.

At one point we thought that his death was faked so that he would not be brought before Congress to testify, as was done in the case of Loretta Fuddy. But we came across some information from Michael Collins Piper which causes us to believe that Colby was indeed murdered by Mossad.

Unfortunately for your Chronicler, Colby wasn't overcome with a sense of patriotism or remorse over his squalid past where confession would do the soul good. His troubles started in 1974 when he shoved out of the CIA the Mossad mole and Kennedy assassin James Angleton. Angleton had operated the Israel desk at the agency for most of his tenure, but the new DCI wanted to place American interests above those of Israel, which is something Angleton would not tolerate.

Why the Director of Central Intelligence wanted to change American foreign policy is above our pay grade, as we thought that it was the domain of the State Department, but Colby and Angleton clearly show that such is not the case. According to Piper, Colby wanted to take a more equitable position toward all of the antagonists in the Middle East, perhaps because oil was such a sensitive and volatile topic in the wake of the recent oil embargo.

The Johnson administration was probably the high summer of American Jewish relations before the chillier season of the 1970s. But Reagan would pursue revanchist policies to return Israel as a sacred cow Americans were forced to worship. In fact so obsequious was Johnson to the Jews that he ordered them to sink the USS Liberty, a task, fortunately, at which they barely failed. Johnson wanted to bomb Egypt into the stone ages for Eretz Israel.

Colby's idea was to moderate US stance toward the Middle East nations by showing less fealty to the sacred cow, and more sensitivity to Arab interests and concerns, a view with considerable support in the State Department. After all, Israel wasn't producing 10 million barrels of oil per day as was Saudi Arabia.

Fortunately for Colby, his job was terminated by President Ford who installed a Mr George Bush of the CIA as its new director. We say that this termination of Colby was fortunate because it prevented him from making any "controversial" moves which might anger the Jews who, as we saw with Kennedy, murdered people not subservient to its interests.

It was against this backdrop that Colby began forming high level relationships with proponents of Arab interests, including Arab government officials, for the purpose of advising them how to deal with Jewish advantages in the US government. Such consulting arrangements were well advanced by the time of his boating "accident."

Piper also noted that sweeping reforms of the organization of US intelligence were making their ways through Congress which would consolidate many intelligence decisions in the hands of the DCI, a prerogative which the military heads were not willing to relinquish. Would Colby have supported this overhaul? If not, it could do serious injury to the legislation.

But why was this legislation so covetously sought by the Jews? The reason was that a Jew, foreign born John Deutch, was the DCI. His salivations over the new powers coming his way could barely be concealed, and given Colby's actions against Jew mole Angleton, the Jews certainly would not want Colby making any remarks before Congress which would deflate the momentum behind the power grab.

When Colby's body was found floating by the dock outside of his home, it bore similarities to two other assassinations - that of CIA man John Paisley in 1978, and Mossad agent Robert Maxwell several years later. All three men had earned the ire of Israel, and all 3 were killed in a similar "wet" fashion. For serious students of covert operations, we needn't elaborate further on wet operations.

Given Colby's antipathy toward Israel, and his support of Arab interests, it is without doubt the case that Mossad murdered Colby, with CIA providing backup support.
