| − | The Foster case reveals two important lessons for students of Intel 101. First, it is not uncommon for people of great wealth to have longterm involvement in intelligence matters. Numerous examp!es abound. [[Frederick Vanderbilt Field]]. Howard Hughes. [[George Soros]]. [[Robert Maxwell]]. Jeff Bezos. After all, these people pay a tremendous amount of taxes and have vested interests that coincide with that of their government. Jackson Stephens of Arkansas, one of the richest men in America, likewise provided support to the US intelligence community over many years. One of those services was banking to help hide CIA financial transactions for covert operations. Secondly, in intelligence work, ''No man can serve two masters''. Once divided loyalties are discovered, the 'asset' has outlived their usefulness. | + | The Foster case reveals two important lessons for students of Intel 101.

| | The Clinton machine of Arkansas, although some high ranking members had connections with US intelligence going back to the 1960s and 1970s, were rank amatuers when it came to Washington in the 1990s and faced US and foreign intelligence services directly. This accounts for some of the sloppiness in many of the cases when surveying the Clinton body count. | | The Clinton machine of Arkansas, although some high ranking members had connections with US intelligence going back to the 1960s and 1970s, were rank amatuers when it came to Washington in the 1990s and faced US and foreign intelligence services directly.
