Riddle As U.S. Spy Chief Quits

July 6, 2003
**Gordon Thomas: Exclusive**

Sunday Express AMERICA'S top spy catcher, Paul Redmond, has suddenly resigned in the middle of his secret investigation into how Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden allegedly obtained US computer software, the SUNDAY EXPRESS claimed this weekend.
<snip>
The official reason given for Redmond's abrupt departure was "health reasons." But stunned colleagues in the Homeland Security department in Washington, where Redmond had his office, insist the former Associate Director of the CIA was in perfect health.
His departure has led to intense speculation that he may have begun to uncover embarrassing details of how the software came into the hands of Saddam and bin Laden.
<snip>
"But until Redmond's abrupt resignation, increasingly the documents relating to Saddam's use of Promis - and his relationship with President Bush's father - were what Redmond had begun to focus on", said a source close to the departed spy catcher.

But both men conceded that Redmond's investigation could have caused embarrassment to President Bush and his family.

2. IMO,the sainted GHWB has been the capo behind most of these sordid events.

I have the strongest suspicion that the anthrax letters were sent on his orders, and his credentials in the oil business make him the prime suspect in the fomenting of the Iraq oil grab.

"For reasons of health, to wit, I don't want to end up a suicide on some freeway I never normally travel, I shall resign"
