BAD AND
GOOD ABOUT VICTOR BOUT
By David Dastych
Warsaw, Poland: In a rare
interview granted in Moscow to an American journalist,
filmmaker and
writer, Peter Landesman, in
2003, Victor Anatolyevich Bout (then 36)
said about
himself: ''I woke up after Sept. 11 and found I was second only to Osama..
And referring to his bad
reputation of .the biggest arms dealer in the world'' he joked:
''Maybe I should start an
arms-trafficking university and teach a course on U.N.
sanctions
busting.'' Four years later, caught in Bangkok on Thursday, March 6, 2008
in an
almost model DEA sting operation, Bout got his first chance to .lecture. to his
captors on how
he had built an almost perfect, very sophisticated and dangerous
global arms
trade system. But he kept his mouth shut. Victor Bout is facing a trial in
Thailand and, perhaps, an
extradition to the United States where he could get even
15 years in jail. A Thai
court has denied him bail .because it fears he may try to leave
the
country.. Bout, 41, hopes he will be sent back to Russia to be tried there, and
his
Russian lawyers are
working very hard on his extradition to Moscow. It.s
still too early
to predict
what will happen to the very unique and highly intelligent Russian weapontrade
master.
American media had reported Bout could embarrass the U.S.
Government if put on
trial. A part of his large (over 60 planes) worldwide airtransport
network was
recently employed by the Pentagon and probably also by the
CIA as a
logistic .subcontractor. in Iraq and
Afghanistan. The secret character of
some of these
missions shouldn.t be revealed. If allowed to return
to Russia, Bout
could face a
trial there, too, but he would be well protected from extradition for similar
reasons: his
enterprises had been rendering very important services to the Russian
industrial-military complex
and to the highest bosses in the Kremlin, including the
former
President, Vladimir Putin. Would Putin.s successor,
Dmitri Medvedev, keep
Victor
Bout as his own .junkyard dog. for
special ops? Not sure. Russia is
strenuously trying
to build up its credibility of a .lawful state.. For many years,
characters like Semyon Mogilevich, .The Brainy
Don., have served the Kremlin
masters as
middlemen and operators of illegal businesses. Mogilevich
has been
recently arrested
in Moscow for .tax evasion. and is awaiting a probable
trial. But he
won.t be extradited to the United
States, in spite of the fact that he is high on the FBI
.wanted. list. A similar option could be .arranged. for Bout in Russia, with a slight
difference: Mogilevich is a Jew and Jews in Russia are not treated well
and they
could easily
loose state protection (like in the case of Mikhail Khodorkovsky,
a former
KGB protege, now a prisoner). Victor Anatolyevich Bout is a genuine Russian
national and his
case could be treated more favorably for him.
The crazy
Yeltsin years
I had first heard of
Victor Bout in the early 1990.s, when I cooperated with a Polish
private
air-services company named Joy Co.Ltd (its name
alluding to .the joy of
flying.). Joy
had its main base in Djibouti, in eastern Africa, and the company was
rapidly
expanding on the continent. They were also selling Russian helicopters and
other planes
gotten from their good contacts in Moscow and Kiev. Some time in
1992, they were planning a
special operation: to fly our choppers to a flooded African

country and to
evacuate some gold from a gold mine for a pretty good sum of money.
Short before that venture,
the chief pilots and managers of Joy Co. Ltd perished in a
strange
helicopter crash over east-African desert. Before the accident, Joy ran into a
strong Russian
competition, dumping prices to their African customers. After the
funeral of our
pilots, I heard somebody talk about .but. (this word
means .a shoe. in
Polish). Had
Victor Bout anything in common with that African accident? I simply
don.t know. What I know is that in
Africa Bout.s arms traders accepted payments in
gold and
diamonds. Joy Co.Ltd, a small, not well funded Polish
air-services company
had no chances
to compete against Victor Bout.s lavishly financed
network. As he
told Landesman about his beginnings in the
early 1990.s:
''I never had investors,''
Bout said. But where does a 25-year-old Russian get
that kind of
start-up money? I asked. ''It was never difficult finding money,'' he
said,
refusing to say more..
In the .crazy Yeltsin years., as we used to call the 1990.s, everything was
possible. Russia
opened up with all rare materials and products that could have been
considered
strategic and top secret by the Soviets. There are some unconfirmed
hints that
Victor Bout also shipped nuclear materials from Russia and the Ukraine to
(mostly)
false .end users. in Central Africa, covering the real
buyers: Iraq, Libya,
Pakistan
and Saudi Arabia. One of the three Russian transport planes, starting from
military
airfields near Kiev, Ukraine, and loaded with weapons and nuclear stuff
crashed over
Greece. The destination was Central African Republic, the caretakers
were Russian
and French intelligence officers and the value of only one of several 30
kg metal
flasks with special nuclear product was about 10 million dollars. The planes
allegedly belonged
to one of Bout.s African air companies. I have
learned about this
unfortunate flight
in Paris from some intel friends.
In the first part of the
1990.s, I cooperated with a Czech trade and financial
enterprise, but
truly a KGB .front company., which had its residents in Geneva,
Switzerland. They traded in.Russian Rubles, trillions of them to be exchanged
against U.S. dollars.
The overall contract was worth over USD 5.0 billion. The Czech
company.s share was to be USD 100 million
and my .tiny. fee was worth USD 1
million only.
The contracts have been arranged by operators of a so called .Vienna
Group. (a business-mafia outfit run by the KGB) with some Kremlin
.big shots. or .fat
cats,. who controlled the Moscow and provincial national banks. The
other party
was, as I
learned later, the CIA with their .front companies. and
their Texan bank
connections. And it
has failed. Why? Because some of the .fat cats. had
been
suddenly replaced
within the Yeltsin.s administration and they lost the
.blocking.
controls over the
banks. At that time, waiting in Geneva, I didn.t know
that the main
operator on the
American side was a former .junkyard dog., or a special ops
intelligence man of
President Ronald Reagan, Somalia.s Ambassador to
Canada,
Lee .Leo. Emil Wanta. That covert business genius and American
intelligence officer
was the
.brain. of a huge network of operations that were to
crush the Soviet
economy in the
late 1980.s and early 1990.s. One of them was known as a .Ruble
Pump..
Wanta was also instrumental in shutting down of some
illegal nuclear trade
operations and Dr. Lutz.s lab serving them in Switzerland. But when he got
ready to
.take
off. Marc Rich, a mafia-type American businessman, later pardoned by
President Bill Clinton, he
was suddenly arrested and flown to the U.S.A. to face
bogus .tax
evasion. charges in the State of Wisconsin. When I got
in touch with Lee,

several years
later, he told me that if I could have met him in Geneva in the 1990.s,
our
dollar-ruble exchange with the Russians would be successful. I didn.t know
either, that
the real cause of his arrest in Switzerland and his later terrible plight in
the
U.S.A. was his flat
refusal to transfer $ 250 million from CIA secret accounts under
his control
to a private foundation owned by President.s wife,
now a Senator and a
Presidential
candidate, Mrs. Hillary Rodham Clinton. Ambassador Wanta is still
fighting in U.S.
courts to return these secret funds to the American People, and not to
some greedy
politicians who would be glad to steal more them. Read more: .What
Is the Truth about Leo Wanta?. Geoff
Metcalf, Monday, Sept. 18, 2006 or Idaho
Observer, January
2007, .Following the money backwards leads to President
Reagan, Russian rubles and
Ambassador Leo Wanta..
What all this has in
common with Victor Bout? There were many connections
between the rise
of the secret business operations by the American intelligence (CIA
in
particular) and the rise of similar operations conducted by the Soviet KGB in
the
1990.s.
Lee Emil Wanta was Reagan.s
.junkyard dog., and Victor Anatolyevich Bout
was Yeltsin Family.s one. Bout had more of good luck than Wanta.until his recent
arrest in
Thailand. Lee is out of jail and fighting for a noble cause, Victor is facing
long-time
imprisonment, unless his high Kremlin protectors help him out of the hellhole.
The
wildlife lover
The cases like Bout.s always remind me about human.s
dual nature: bad and good,
loving and
hating, normal and perverse, because every man and every woman has
been
naturally doted with conflicting features of
character. And only God knows why
and what
for.
Peter Landesman, in his
brilliant article for the New York Times Magazine (2003),
quoted Bout.s close associate Richard Chichakli
about Victor:
.Flowers, that's where it
all started.'' . ''He's a vegetarian.''. ''He's an
ecologist. He
believes in saving the rain forest.'' . .He admired
the isolated
Pygmy tribes he visited
during his jungle runs, he said, because they lived in
perfect harmony
with their environment, immune from conflict and diseases
like AIDS..
And more, about and from
Bout himself:
.Over the previous 10
years, he explained, whenever he accompanied one of
his planes
into the remote jungles of Africa, he spent time photographing
wildlife and
studying isolated African tribes. ''In the middle of nowhere, you feel
alive, you
feel part of nature.'' His favorite authors, he told me, were the New
Age
novelists Paulo Coelho and Carlos Castaneda. ''What I
really want to do
now is to
take one of my helicopters to the Russian Arctic north and make
wildlife films
for National Geographic and the Discovery channel.''
Gayle Smith, the U.S.
National Security Council's top Africanist, quoted by
Landesman, said:

''Bout was brilliant,''.
''Had he been dealing in legal commodities, he would
have been
considered one of the world's greatest businessmen. He's a
fascinating but
destructive character. We were trying to bring peace, and Bout
was bringing
war.''
A dog of war,gunrunner, former Air Force
officer and KGB spy.A husband, father,
ecologist, exceptionally
literate and highly intelligent businessman with fluent
command of six
foreign languages, including Farsi and some African,Bout is said to
have at least
five passports and several aliases. He resided in Russia with his wife,
Alla, and her father, "Zuiguin." According to a UN report,
"information from the United
States suggests that his wife.s father, .Zuiguin,. at one point held a high
position in
the KGB,
perhaps even as high as a Deputy Chairman."
In addition to his
services as an arms dealer and importer/exporter of weapons and
ammunition, Viktor
Bout has allegedly offered some sort of private military assistance
to the
Afghan Northern Alliance and United States in those countries' on-going war
on
terrorism. According to journalists Stephen Braun and Douglas Farah, Bout
approached the
American intelligence community (specifically the FBI, possibly the
CIA as well) sometime
after the September 11th, 2001 terrorist attacks on the World
Trade Center with a
contract of services to help combat the Taliban and Al-Qaeda in
Afghanistan. While the
American agencies have not disclosed their final decision on
the matter,
documentation has been obtained by Braun and Farah which
indicated
that these
agencies were interested enough to allow Bout to fly to the United States
on at least
two occasions for face-to-face discussions of his sales pitch. (It is
important to note
that trips of this nature would have required a temporary waiver of
his American
travel ban, evidence of which Braun and Farah also claim to have
obtained.)
Bout was arrested in
Bangkok following an eight months long international sting
operation, staged
against him and his aide, Andrew Smulian, by the
American
Drug
Enforcement Administration (DEA). At least three people
knowing him or
cooperating with him
helped the DEA as covert informants, code-named C-1, C-2
and C-3, who
played the roles of Columbian FARC rebels, looking for weapons worth
over $ 30
million. The DEA sting operation extended from Curacao to Bucharest and
Bangkok and led to the
arrest of Bout and Smulian and to presenting welldocumented
and serious charges against
.international arms traffickers. to a U.S.
Court in the Southern
District of New York.
I wonder what will happen
to Victor Bout in the future. Will he rot in jail or become a
.turncoat. to help the international efforts to curb illegal
trafficking of arms, drugs,
nuclear
materials and other items what render our world dangerous. Is this possible?
All is.
