partner. He flew to Panama, established two dummy corporations there, opened bank accounts and improved the laundering routes.

Following the Federal agents' raid on his offices Sharir did not give up.Within two weeks he opened two other offices on 47th Street and resumed work.

When asked by one of his lawyers how he had expected to escape the attentions of the law, Sharir replied: "I changed my system and believed that now, with

God's help, I would never be caught." Sharir's new system included Rabbi Yosef Crozet whom we discussed earlier. Crozer's big mouth brought Sharir

down, and he was arrested in March 1990. Crozer also led to Sharir confessing to having laundered $200 million. His wife Miryam was arrested together

with him. Sharir, under the pressure of the interrogation, agreed to cooperate in exchange for his wife's release and the cancellation of the charges against her.

The prosecution agreed.

It was an extremely good deal as far as the prosecution was concerned. For three months Sharir fed the Federal investigators with most valuable information

concerning the Jewish laundering industry. The information included names, methods of operation, codes, and bank accounts. Sharir led them to the exposure

of what is termed the new "cocaine triangle".

His information led to the incrimination of more than 35 Jewish launderers, the capture of $10 million and the breakup of numerous Jewish laundering rings.

Among others, Sharir incriminated the biggest laundering shark in the history of the US, Stephan Scorkia. The information given by Sharir, who testified at his

trial, directly led to his conviction. Scorkia was charged with laundering $300 million, and was sentenced to 660 years' imprisonment.

Sharir is now enrolled in the US witness protection program. He lives under an assumed identity, has been released on bail, travels under heavy security

between New York, Rhode Island, Arizona and other states, testifies in criminal trials and goes on.

His wife Miryam divorced him shortly after the affair erupted. She refuses to comment on the matter and told the Daily News: "I have no intention of talking. I

divorced Aharon in order to distance myself from him and from his friends, and that is exactly what I am doing."

Sharir was directly responsible for the flight of at least 35 Colombians from the US back to Colombia. One of the escapees was Duvan Arbolda, one of the

Kali cartel's major launderers. Arbolda was charged in a Manhattan court of laundering on a vast scale, following Sliarir's testimony. Afler he completes his

testifying, Sharir himself will stand trial.

The prosecution will agree to a very low sentence, but this does not improve his chances of survival. "At present, Aharon Sharir heads the Kali cartel's

wanted list," said an American customs official. Charges have also been served against Lihu Ichilov, Sharir's partner. However, Ichilov fled to Israel on the

eve of his trial, in January 199 1. That was the period of the Gulf War and the judge, Richard Owen, who tried Ichilov in absentia, said: "Mr. Ichilov

apparently prefers to face the horror of Scud missiles falling on Israel than the American justice system."

Note 1. The Satmar Hassidic sect fiercely opposes Zionism. The present rabbi's uncle and predecessor (the position of a rabbi among the Hassids is limited

to the members of "the sacred family"), Yoel Taitelbaum, had published learned books in which Zionism was described as an invention of Satan, Israeli

victories (especially the one in the Six Day War) were attributed solely to the direct help given to the Israeli army, while the Holocaust was being "justified" as

the Divine punishment of the Jews for the sin of some of them becoming Zionists. The present rabbi, although formally continuing the teachings of his uncle,

has the most amicable relations with the Israeli government.

Calendar of Conspiracy: A Chronology of Anti-Government Extremist Criminal

Activity, January to June 1997

A Militia Watchdog Special Report

INTRODUCTION

The following is a chronology of some of the events surrounding anti-government criminal activity in the United States

during the first half of the year 1997. It illustrates both the scope of such activity-from large-scale acts of terrorism to local

acts of harassment and intimidation-and its geographic extent-from major cities like Los Angeles and New York to remote

rural areas in Texas and Montana. The chronology is not comprehensive. Although all major events are included, no

systemized reporting system exists for smaller scale events. As a result, arrests or convictions for charges such as placing

bogus liens, impersonating a public official or committing similar offenses are considerably underrepresented in this report.

Such activities occur with a high level of frequency across the nation. More than thirty-three states are listed in this report;

however, incidents are occurring in every state.

JANUARY

January 2, South Dakota: In Rapid City, South Dakota, "freeman" Bill Huseby is bound over for trial. He is charged with

sending false documents to the Pennington county Sheriff's Office, a former judge, and a private citizen; also, three

misdemeanor charges.

January 6, Washington: Seattle resident Richard Frank Burton, arrested with eight other individuals last July on various

weapons and conspiracy charges, pleads guilty in U.S. District court to one count of conspiracy and three other charges. His

wife, Caitlin Hansen, pleads guilty to one count of destroying and concealing evidence. A third individual, Theodore Carter,

pleads guilty to one conspiracy charge and agrees to testify against his fellow defendants. The three are part of a mixed

group of militia members and "sovereign citizens."

January 6, Oklahoma: Three common-law court advocates plead guilty in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to a federal conspiracy charge.

Kenny Moore, Colleen Moore and Wayne Gunwall had filed bogus liens on IRS agents to the amount of $7 million, and had

issued "citizens arrest warrants" against several federal officials. The trial of another defendant, Dan Meador, begins on

January 8.

January 10, Oklahoma: Dan Meador is convicted of obstructing justice and illegally communicating with a member of a

federal grand jury (see above).

January 13, Virginia: Two Mechanicsville, VA, residents are sentenced to eighteen months in prison on tax evasion charges.

Jerry Martin and his wife Sadie Martin, Christian Identity adherents, were "sovereign citizens" who denied the legal

existence of the United States.

January 16, Oregon: Common law court activist Charles Stewart, leader of a Portland, Oregon group, tries "in absentia"

seven IRS agents at his Kangaroo court. Two weeks later, the "court" rules that four of the agents should pay fines of

$100,000 each for seizing a Portland home. However, it was up to the man whose home was seized to collect the money.

January 22, Georgia, North Carolina: District Attorney Albert Taylor, Jr., prosecutor for the Enotah Circuit in Georgia, requests

and receives a "writ of non molestando" to stop a "sovereign citizen," Melvin Julius Robinson, from harassing him.

Robinson's actions included filing a $100 million frivolous lawsuit against him and demanding that Taylor appear before the

"Our One Supreme Court" of Franklin, North Carolina. In response, Taylor dusted off an ancient writ that probably had never

been used in the state to restrain Robinson from using the legal process to "molest, vilify, obstruct, or hinder" the lawful

discharge of official duties.

January 24, Missouri: Five common law court advocates in Lincoln County, Missouri, are sentenced to two years in prison

and a $5,000 fine, and a sixth, Dennis Logan, is sentenced to seven years in prison and a $5,000 fine. The defendants were

charged with tampering with a judicial official-specifically, filing a $10.8 million bogus lien against a judge to force him to

drop a speeding case involving the daughter of one of the defendants. Nine other defendants, also convicted, have yet to be

sentenced.

January 24, Minnesota: Michael Moeller is charged in Winona County, Minnesota, of making terroristic threats. Moeller, a

militia sympathizer, threatened to blow up the headquarters of the state Department of Natural Resources, where he formerly

worked.

January 28, Wisconsin: Sally Minniecheske, the wife of Wisconsin Posse Comitatus leader Donald Minniecheskie, is

sentenced to nine months for disorderly conduct, obstructing an officer and fleeing arrest. The charges stemmed from a

1995 incident during a property seizure in which Minniecheskie threatened a police chief and led him on a car chase through

Tigerton, Wisconsin. The Minniecheskies have been involved in anti-government activities in Tigerton for more than twenty

years.

January 30, Pennsylvania: In Philadelphia, Christian Identity minister Mark Thomas is indicted on conspiracy charges

related to the armed robberies committed by the "Midwestern Bank Bandits," who dubbed themselves the "Aryan

Republican Army." Also arrested is Michael Brescia. Brescia and Thomas bring the total number arrested for these robberies

to six.

January 30, Mississippi, Tennessee: Armed militia members from Mississippi precipitate an unexpected standoff near

Memphis, Tennessee, when they show up to halt the eviction of two Southaven residents from their home. Local officials

back away from the eviction and say they will pursue the matter in court some more.

FEBRUARY

February 6, California: Two California men are found guilty of fraud in San Jose for passing bogus checks created by the

Montana Freemen. The jury finds Robert Young guilty of conspiracy, three counts of bank fraud, two counts of mail fraud,

and one count of filing a false claim with the IRS. Frank Pepper is convicted on two counts of mail fraud. Two other

defendants, Leonard Ferrier and Dawn Onalfo, had plead guilty before the trial.

February 10, Connecticut: Nena Frankle and John Barney are arrested by local police on charges of interfering with police

and criminal trespass, after they resisted attempts by authorities in Connecticut to take possession of their foreclosed

residence. Frankle and Barney are members of a group of Connecticut common law court advocates and tax protesters

which advocates such resistance.

February 10, Ohio: Peter Langan is convicted in federal court in Columbus, Ohio, of five felonies related to 1994 armed

robberies of banks in Columbus and Cincinnati. Langan is the leader of the "Midwestern Bank Bandits," who claimed to

engage in armed robbery to support their revolutionary struggle.

February 14, Missouri: The remaining seven common law court activists of the thirteen convicted earlier in Missouri receive

their sentences: six activists sentenced to two years in prison and a seventh activist to seven years. All additionally must pay

a $5,000 fine.

Ca. February 15, Washington: Charles Miller and three other men are arrested in Washington on sixteen counts of

conspiracy to defraud banks, mail fraud, and interstate transportation of stolen property. Another accomplice, Kathleen

Cottam, was arrested earlier and pled guilty. The suspects had obtained bogus money orders from Montana Freeman

leader LeRoy Schweitzer in 1995 and had been using them to buy cars and motor homes in Washington. Charles

Christenson, Kurt Gilson, and Veryl Knowles were also arrested.

February 15, Ohio, Washington, Arkansas, Montana, Utah: Near Wilmington, Ohio, Chevie and Cheyne Kehoe, two brothers

from Washington, engage in two shootouts with local police during and following a routine traffic stop. A bystander is

wounded. The Kehoes, Christian Identity adherents with ties to Aryan Nations and other white supremacist groups, avoid an

intensive manhunt and vanish along with their families. Their mobile home is later found near Casper, Wyoming. Chevie

Kehoe is wanted for questioning in connection with the murders of an Arkansas gun dealer with ties to the militia movement,

and his family.

February 18, Pennsylvania: Pennsylvania Aryan Nations leader Mark Thomas pleads guilty to plotting seven bank robberies

and using the cash to further the cause of white supremacy in connection with the Midwestern Bank Bandits.

February 20, Georgia: Three Georgia militia members receive stiff sentences for their roles in a conspiracy to build pipe

bombs for use against the federal government. Bob Starr is given 8 years, one month; while James McCranie and Troy

Spain are sentenced to six S years in prison each.

February 20, Minnesota: Three Minnesota residents receive convictions for attempting to pass bogus checks obtained from

the Montana Freemen. Marilyn Kerkvliet and Robert Leffler are convicted of eight counts of mail fraud and passing

counterfeit checks each. Ronald Kerkvliet is convicted of a single count of mail fraud.

February 21, Montana, North Carolina: The first conviction arrives for members of the Montana Freemen, who held off

authorities for 81 days in the spring of 1996. Russell Landers and an associate, James Vincent Wells, are convicted of seven

and twelve federal fraud and conspiracy counts, respectively, ending a trial marked by combative behavior by Landers. The

two used bogus money orders to purchase vehicles to drive back to Montana.

February 21, Washington: Supporters of the Washington militia/freemen defendants on trial in Seattle file a $1.76 billion lien

against the judge, John Coughenour, and five prosecutors.

February 24, Texas: Local authorities in Texas issue an arrest warrant for Rick McLaren, leader of the secessionist

common-law group, "The Republic of Texas," after McLaren failed to appear for a preliminary hearing on a 1995 burglary

charge. However, authorities take no steps to arrest McLaren, who is barricaded in a remote West Texas settlement.

February 28, Washington: The Washington militia/freemen explosives conspiracy case ends in a mistrial. The mistrial is

declared on federal conspiracy charges against seven people, while four defendants are convicted of weapons charges.

Washington State Militia founder John Pitner is convicted of possession and transfer of machine guns. John Lloyd Kirk and
