POWER SCAM
The Enron-Bush Connection
by Uri Dowbenko
Enron's Son of a Spook
Enron dealmaker Frank Wisner, Jr. muscled the
company into lucrative overseas contracts, most
notably in India and the Philipines.
Enron's deal to manage a power plant in the
Philippines was due largely to Wisner's efforts. Based
in Subic Bay, a former US military outpost, the power
planet was taken over by Enron in 1993, two months
after the last US troops left the base.
Wisner is also credited with helping Enron win a
$2.8 billion deal in India, building a power plant
near Bombay. Now the project is under heavy fire for
being over-priced, and the deal continues to simmer
with allegations of bribery.
Wisner Jr. must have learned his tradecraft from
his father Frank Wisner Sr., one of the CIA's prime
operatives.
Wisner Sr., who worked at CIA from 1947 until just
before his "suicide" in 1965, was involved in 1) the
1954 CIA coup in Guatemala, toppling the goverment of
Jacobo Arbenz for United Fruit Company, 2) the 1953
overthrow of Iranian Prime Minister Mohammed Mossadeq,
and 3) the secret operations against Indonesian
President Sukarno.
Unlike his spooky father, Frank Wisner Jr.,
however, was a former Pentagon official before his job
at Enron.
