Sunday, June 1, 2008  Sibel Edmonds Case: Dennis Hastert to
receive payoffs for 'services rendered'  So, former FBI
translator Sibel Edmonds is again proved right. For more than a
year Sibel has been predicting that Dennis Hastert will join a
lobbying firm involved with Turkey, and now we learn that
Hastert is joining Dickstein Shapiro.  In the "Representative
Engagements" section of Dickstein's website, we learn that they
represented "the government of Turkey in connection with the
development and financing by private sponsors of the Baku-Ceyhan
oil pipeline and TransCaspian gas pipeline spanning from the
Caspian Sea to the Mediterranean."  Dennis Hastert, who is
listed in Sibel's "Rogues Gallery," was caught on FBI wiretaps
accepting bribes from Turkish criminal elements associated with
the Turkish government, as documented in Vanity Fair in 2005 and
elsewhere.  The following clip from Kill The Messenger, a
documentary about Sibel's case, discusses some of Hastert's
involvement as mentioned in Vanity Fair.
