A man in a BMW was driving down a quiet side street after an evening meeting at his Fort Lauderdale office when a car slowed to a stop in front of him. A second car boxed the BMW in from behind, then a dark Mustang appeared from the opposite direction. The Mustang's driver pulled alongside and pumped three hollow-point bullets into the BMW driver's chest.
“Boulis was murdered in the exact same way as Don Aronow, Bush’s other partner,” he stated.
Bush’s other partner? The question hung in the air.
“Something is really going down bad here,” Tiller stated.
“Don Aronow. Gus. Jim Shore…All tied in to Bush.”---------------------------------------------------------
"There is a report just a day or two after 9/11 that someone reported to the FBI that three or four of the hijackers were seen gambling on a SunCruz boat,” wrote a source in Miami.
“The FBI interviewed everyone who might have seen them, that very day by all reports.”Sure enough. We found an Associated Press story on Sept 26, 2001 headlined
“SunCruz Casinos turns over Documents in Terrorist Probe.” “SunCruz Casinos has turned over photographs and other documents to FBI investigators after employees said they recognized some of the men suspected in the terrorist attacks as customers.… Names on the passenger list from a Sept. 5 cruise matched those of some of the hijackers... Two or three men linked to the Sept. 11 hijackings may have been customers on a ship that sailed from Madeira Beach on Florida's gulf coast.”Less than a week before the 9.11 attack, Atta and several other hijackers were aboard one of Abramoff’s casino boats. What no one seems able to answer is this:
What possible thrill could gambling offer men getting ready to die in less than a week? To this date, their Sept 5 visit to a gambling vessel overrun with retirees remains unexplained. I tell you what though, I sure would like to see the ships manifest for Sept. 5th. That would give you the names of the real terrorists.
As far as Atta and co. goes, the gambling motif in the terrorist’s timeline doesn’t end there. On June 28 at Boston’s Logan Airport, Mohamed Atta boarded a United Airlines flight and flew first class nonstop to San Francisco. He bypassed the bohemian North Beach district, and didn’t take the cruise to Alcatraz…
Atta headed for Vegas.
On Aug. 10, Hani Hanjour and Nawaf Alhazmi used first-class tickets for a United flight from Dulles Airport near Washington, D.C., to Los Angeles International Airport, then on to Las Vegas. The story of the terrorists Las Vegas connection may never be known, admitted the Las Vegas FBI.
So whatever you believe actually happened on 9-11, there seems to be little doubt about these 4 hijackers and their gambling habits.

One time-honored way to get rich is to marry money. Another is to kill someone that has it… In Abramoff’s case, it appears that Gus Boulis, the owner of the lion’s share of the casino boats in Florida, had to die first.
Three men tied to Jack and the Republican party formed an ownership group that apparently made Boulis the proverbial offer he couldn’t refuse. They bought SunCruz from him, even though it wasn't for sale and he didn't want to sell.
When Greek tycoon
Gus Boulis was gunned down in his BMW on February 6, 2001Fort Lauderdale police investigators immediately began scrutinizing SunCruz Casinos. Suspicion focused on the recent sale of the fleet. Boulis and one of the three men had been carrying on a very public feud.
Less than two months later,
Sun Cruz announced plans to move a 150-foot, $10-million floating casino to the Northern Marianas. Yes, the same Marianas that has been tied to Tom DeLay's illegal sweatshops that deal in prostitution and forced abortion. Another prime example of Republican hypocrisy upon pulling back the curtain of spin.

While Jack Abramoff’s Indian gaming troubles may have been getting the most publicity, his other major 'area of concern’ is where the real scandal resides. Involvement with Mob-run casino boats may turn out to be a faux pas, even for Republicans. And now the media has finally picked up this story after the DOJ issued a warrant for Abramoff. With so many other stories of murder, mayhem and terrorism tied into Abramoff, the fact that the MSM has taken so long to report about Abramoff's ties to Sun Crux Gambling tells me one thing. Get ready for spin and damage control.
The casino boat ‘industry’ in the US can be traced back to a few seemingly inconsequential sentences buried in a 1992 federal law called ''An Act to provide for the designation of the Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary.''
(The “Flower Garden Banks” are the northernmost coral reefs in the United States, located off Texas and Louisiana.)
The obscure bill offered the perfect place to slip in a few sentences, which, deciphered, added ships of U.S. registry to vessels already covered under the Johnson Act of 1951, which regulated the transportation of gambling devices, and allowed ships of foreign registry, which often offered gambling, to dock at U.S. ports as long as no one used or repaired gambling equipment while in U.S. territorial waters. The amendment was a Trojan horse which extended this privilege to U.S. ships…
The result was a burgeoning new industry in Florida, and the state was soon encircled by almost thirty casino boats swarming the peninsula’s ports like the bloodthirsty pirates of yore.
They were called “cruises to nowhere.” And in short order the boats were generating hundreds of millions of dollars a year in revenues. Hundreds of million of dollars of unregulated revenue…
Who owns Florida's gambling boats? No one is certain. There is virtually no state or federal oversight. No one licenses the operators. No one ensures that the games aren’t rigged. No one ensures that the boats aren't used to launder money. No one investigates whether organized crime is involved.
Florida's cruises-to-nowhere represent "the largest unregulated gambling industry in the United States," said Bill Thompson, a professor of gambling at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas and nationally recognized expert on the industry, in an interview in the Miami Herald.
They gross at least $170 million a year. And that’s just the number they report voluntarily. No one knows the true ‘take.’ Everyone assumes there’s a ‘skim.
So where is Jack? In Israel of course. I suspect he knew he a warrant was to be issued and he ran to Israel. I wonder if he plans to comply to the warrant?
Like the Plame affair, the Jack Abrhamoff affair is a gift that keeps on giving. But make no mistake, as Cindy Sheehan and the Downing Street Memo's showed us, the mainstream media will not do their job unless the massive online community demands it. For the rest of the story, go to
