It has been quite a while I mentioned Guido Gomez Mazara as one of the reputed drug lord suspects the U.S. government was investigating. The confirmation of his cancelled U.S. visa back in December came as no surprise to me. I knew it then, and knew it was coming. But most of Hippos administration is in the same boat.
Hippo is sorrounded by criminal elements worthy of an organized crime family. The number of assassinations among his own crew is a legacy of high crime. From the Trio Cafe massacre to the Nagua triple killing/burning, dead generals, high police officials and even senators, there is little space for waste.
This is not the end of the announcements by U.S. foreign officials. I expect stronger language coming from the State department regarding Guido and Hippos palace mafia. Guido was selected as a target for the message. Guido did not heed the warning to step out the Presidential Legal Counsel office for good. He took a leave of absence supposedly for the re-election campaign, but returned without reason, when the campaign is in full swing!!!
Obviously, Colin Powell did not want Guido to return to his desk. He hoped Guido would stay away for good. But for reasons which I can speculate, he returned to the palace and Powell pulled the carpet from under him. Powell may not only pull the visa. He mey press for indictments. The U.S. is in a full press to uncover under the table dealings at Hippos palace, including money laundering. They will not stop now.
Guido is not only in trouble in the U.S., but he has a lot of explaining to do in Europe, specially France and the DEA there. Notice also how clever of the State department to use a junior diplomat in Puerto Rico to leak the reason for the cancellation of the Guido visa. U.S. policy is very leery of declaring the reasons for a visa denial in the press and in public. But an example is being set here with a clear message......GEORGE BUSH is sick and tired of HIPPO and his mafia.
Along with Guido and Pepe Goico I have my feelings about my favorite crooks in the PPH, like the Lebanese connection, the Customs terminator crew, the agriculture department smugglers, the interior department weapons dealers, the finance department peso destruction crew and the police-military crime traffickers, including the Navy "illegal boat people trip mafia.
This will be an interesting fall season for crooks. I believe Guido wanted to be pretty close to the palace to try to block the bombs coming from the U.S. He figured he could not afford to be campaigning and risking somebody using his desk would have sensitive stuff land in his or her lap without him knowing it. He paid dearly for it. He only has a few choices...resign, get fired by Hippo or demand an explanation from the U.S. Embassy hoping the whole thing was a nightmare.
