April 14, 2008 (LPAC)--As Lyndon LaRouche has warned, the British oligarchy isn't done with Barack Obama yet and will never allow him to become President of the United States, so, in two separate but related incidents over the last two days, Barack Obama continues come under attack by various London-directed scandals.

First, Barack Obama and his wife attended a 2004 party in honor of British-Iraqi billionaire Nadhmi Auchi at the home of Obama's financial fixer Tony Rezko, according to testimony given in Rezko's bribery and corruption trial today.

Under the headline "Obama bomb dropped," the Chicago Sun-Times "Eye on Rezko" blog reports that the government's star witness, Stuart Levine, today placed Obama and his wife at a party at Rezko's home held to honor Auchi, on April 3, 2004.

It was Auchi who provided the $3.5 million loan to Rezko which caused Rezko's bond to be revoked in January. It was also Auchi who had given another $3.5 million loan to Rezko only three weeks before Obama and his wife bought a South Side mansion at a reduced price at the same time that Rezko's wife bought the lot next door; she later sold part of the lot to Obama. A number of observers have asked whether Auchi's funds were used for the land purchase, since both Rezkos claim to have had almost no assets at the time.

A 2004 Pentagon report was quoted by the Washington Times as having accused Auchi of corruption in dealing with contracts for post-invasion Iraq under the Coalition Provisional Authority, and the British press has accused Auchi, among other things, of corruption in connection with the UN Oil-for-Food program. Auchi, through his lawyers, has denied all such charges.

Witness Levine had previously testified about a reception that Rezko organized for Auchi at the Four Seasons in Chicago, when Rezko was trying to get Auchi to invest in his 62-acre development. Today's testimony concerned a separate event in honor of Auchi, held at Rezko's North Shore suburban Wilmette residence -- hardly a place where the Obama's would just drop in because they were "in the neighborhood.'

"Mr. and Mrs. Obama were there, were they not?" Rezko lawyer Joseph Duffy asked.

"Yes, sir," Levine said.

And, if that wasn't enough, next, coming out of London's own Sunday Times, yesterday, featured Obama's ties to avowed Weatherman terrorist Bill Ayres, under the headline "'Terrorist' link puts Barack Obama under fire." Although the story has been kicking around for a while, what's new is that Fox TV's Sean Hannity pushed it last week, including interviewing Newt Gingrich who called this "part of a general pattern" on Obama's part. The Times quotes Ayers saying that he has no regrets over the Weatherman bombings of the 1960s and '70s, and declaring that "we didn't do enough."

Former CIA counterterrorism official Larry Johnson is also quoted in the Times as saying:

"They're going to kill him with this. The guy is an unrepentant terrorist, so please, Barack Obama, explain why you aligned yourself with him. It is a fundamental question of judgment. By the time he [Obama] was hanging around with Ayers, his position was well known. He [Ayers] was not a freedom fighter; he belonged to a violent terrorist group."
