Nadine, what is there to hide. Is it SA's involvement and the ties to the Bush oil?

What Bush oil? News to me that any Bush has an oil company. They have connections, certainly, whose ties to SA are well known. I think we can assume that the info being protected is not already public.

I would guess that it's embarrassing, both to NORAD and to Our Friends the Saudis, whom the Bush administration is still trying to get cooperation from, and many in State are still in love with despite some rather obvious infidelities.

Speaking of SA and unmentionable ties, what about Israel's strong ties to South Africa during its Apartheid years. How many African freedom fighters were killed with Israel weapons? How many years was that Apartheid regime propped up by Israel's economic support (undermining the global economic boycott)?
