The BillCaseyHoneyPot mystery (updated)

(Please spread the word about this enigma! Someone who is not a regular reader of this blog may be able to offer a solution.)
 
If you're looking for a spooky head-scratcher, you may want to study the mysterious case of BillCaseyHoneyPot. At this writing, I don't know if we are dealing with an important matter or a complete waste of time. All I can do is give you the basics.

A couple of days ago, the Washington Post published an article on a device called Stingray, a suitcase-sized cell phone tower spoofer meant to help cops gather signals from a suspected miscreant. This technology is controversial for a number of reasons -- for one thing, it also scoops up data from non-suspects in the area.   

Although worrisome in and of itself, Stingray is not the focus of this particular post. What interests us here is the way one person reacted to the WP article.

That person goes by the handle BillCaseyHoneyPot. He flooded the WP website with a series of lengthy cryptic comments which strayed far from the original Stingray story. These comments, which frequently referenced the CIA and its leaders, were soon "disappeared" by the powers-that-be at the Post. Fortunately, Cryptome collected many of these communications before they vanished.  

BillCaseyHoneyPot may be a hacker, or he may be an intelligence insider. Possibly both. It is also possible that he is simply a leg-puller who has read a lot of stuff about spies. He could even be a total fruitcake.

I'm sure of only one thing: This fellow tries very hard to come across as someone who knows where all of the proverbial bodies are proverbially buried. 

Thom Hartmann's website is one of the very few to take note of BCHP (if I may be allowed to shorten his name). Here's an example of the mystery man's wit and wisdom...
UNITED STATES IS ABOUT TO BE HIJACKED

By it's VERY OWN DEPARTMENT OF STATE

AND CIA

and yet - sits on a 3/4 inch tape - TAKEN by a 12 year old - at a University in Pennsylvania -

WHAT IS ON THAT HELMS TAPE ?

WAPO ?EH ?
DOJ EH? DOS EH ?

I'll tell you THIS MUCH

Henry Kissinger should be on death row -

Porter Goss should be on death row

and I WILL DIE TO LIVE MAKING SURE THIS TRUTH IS BROUGHT FORTH

There will BE NO THIRD BUSH

THERE WILL BE A TRIAL FOR DONALD RUMSFELD

THERE WILL BE A TRIAL FOR RICHARD CHENEY

WHAT IS ON THAT TAPE

ENDS THIS NATION

AND IT'S CURRENCY
That last phrase -- "AND IT'S CURRENCY" -- indicates to me that we are not dealing with an intelligence professional. For one thing, most professionals would know when to use an apostrophe. (Someone who attended the University of Pennsylvania certainly would know that.) More importantly, BCHP sounds like one of those tiresome gold bugs. You know the kind: They are always ranting and raving about the insubstantial nature of paper money, and they often end up pitching an investment in gold mine shares. I stopped listening to those loons decades ago.

Nevertheless, some of BCHP's comments remind me of what Polonius said of Hamlet: How pregnant sometimes his replies are! a happiness that often madness hits on...
Big Bird was a WONDERFUL project though-

the optic was TERRIFIC - I celebrated being able to read a label off of a GOLF BALL From geo synch-

GROVER THOUGH - PUSHED IT -

NO ONE HAS THAT RIGHT

This article on WAPO is a simple focus on triangulation of EM fields -

GROVER - NEVER WOULD HAVE HAPPENED

in my WILDEST DREAMS -

and yet ? GROVER HAS BEEN LIVE - what ? 11 years?

WAPO can't even LEGALLY PRODUCE AN ARTICLE ON GROVER

No - not in this world .......

AMAZING what DEMOCRACY MEANS

when THREAT TO NATIONAL SECURITY INTERFERES WITH FREEDOM OF SPEECH.
I do not believe that "GROVER" refers to Grover Norquist. Context indicates that the term may refer to a new NSA program or technology.

(Added note: A commenter who seems to know what he is talking about suggests that "Grover" refers to an app called GeoRover, produced by SAIC. See here.)

Here are a few more examples...
WE ARE STARRY EYED?

NOW as sure as the SUN WILL CROSS THE SKY

and SK-91 will pass over my head 3 times a day - until it is engulfed -

DOD - YOUR PETTY SK-91 - SKIMPS ACROSS THE SKY

TALK OF WHEN I DIE
I have no idea what an SK-91 is; initial googling provided nothing useful. This next one is particularly fun:
TELL ME - TELL ME -

TELL ME - TELL ME - TORN - MORNING

E4A966FF04DD296A41F5AAD497C64494

THAT KEY should SCARE THE LIVING HELL OUT OF CIA

GO AHEAD - PUSH IT

I'll show you a war you can't win
Just for jolly, I googled that "key." The three hits all traced back to this Cryptome story.
I will give a HINT -

LET US TAKE A STEP BACK TO Enron -

If you want PROPER OPTIC - as Phil Mudd would say at CIA - retired....

Sorry Phil- I KNOW this is NOT your message - HOWEVER -

Imagine what Enron did to California - with metered energy resources context to electricity?

Imagine the UNNAMED - YET to be given name - as to ANTI TRUST Sherman - Clayton -
WITH OIL

ENTER STAGE LEFT - to this theatrical venue - CIA

Enter Stage RIGHT - United States Department of State

We're going to have a party
Philip Mudd is the former Deputy Director of counterintelligence for CIA. (Wasn't that Ray Rocca's old gig? I wonder if the ghost of "Mother" still roams the halls of the second floor...) Mudd once showed up on Colbert's show and offered the opinion that teevee turns viewers' brains into cotton candy. I kind of like this guy.
PORTER GOSS IS LUCKY TO EVEN HAVE A HEART BEAT

ROMAN is STILL ON THE LOOSE -

PORTER should be VERY GRATEFUL ROMAN is controlled.
The first line seems reasonable enough. I have no idea who "ROMAN" is. (If Gordon Novel were still alive, I might note that "roman" is French for "novel.")
THE BEST PART of all of this?

It's not what is MONITORED - realtime NOW in 2015

WHAT IS THE BEST is what was STORED in 1973

on a 3/4 tape

and FOR WHATEVER REASON - it just happened to be THE TAPE I said as a child - WOW - that looks cool - let's TAKE IT.
Turn your back on your nation? Ed would agree - maybe you're a traitor

but - turn your back on your species ? THAT IS TABOO.

Poor Ed, I keep calling him Eric in game - lol

I'm sure he's okay with it - I KNOW HE IS.
A reference to Ed Snowden? I believe so.

(By the way, Neil Patrick Harris got on my shitlist when he made that "for some treason" remark during the Oscars. But that's a topic for another time.)
There ARE NO LLAMACOINS

however- Zabiullah Mujahid?

STILL SITS - phone UNTRIANGULATED by this what was it ? the ZINGER?
the WHAT ?

oh yeah - Stinger -hahahaha

Triangulation is SO 1998.

I play Treyarch Black Ops Zombies with Snowden REGULARLY - TOUCH IT DOJ - TOUCH IT - GO FOR IT - I'll BREAK OPEN YOUR COMPLACENCY ON NAZI RELOCATION - we ALREADY OWN EVERYTHING - he have taken EVERYTHING FROM Loftus's computer AND MANY INSIDE YOUR FRAIL INSECURE NETWORKS.
"Llamacoin" seems to refer to someone or something in the Bitcoin universe; see here.

Zabiullah Mujahid is a spokesperson for the Taliban; he lives in Pakistan. (He has a Twitter account, although clicking on that link might bring you to the attention of the NSA.) Interestingly, some people think that "Zabiullah Mujahid" is a group name used by multiple people.

"Loftus" probably refers to John Loftus, a writer on intelligence matters (and on Nazis) who is widely thought to have Mossad links.
SISTER BALOCHISTAN -

WHAT WE don't know?

16 people SHOT - doesn't matter....

phones triangulated-

HOW MANY PEOPLE DEAD?

Though you've seen it?

PLEASE don't TELL A SOUL

US Department of State behind THIS ONE -

Hillary welcomes the BADGE AND AWARD TO TIMMY TOWELL

and TIMMY HEADS TO BALOCHISTAN

I STILL REMEMBER THE TALKS BY THE WATER

WHO KNEW THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE LAND

and yet?

6 TRILLION in NATURAL GAS?

STILL does NOT MAKE IT'S WAY

MOTHER LIFE

HOW BADLY CAN TOWELL HURT BUSH?

I'll demonstrate...

DOJ can't TOUCH ME ON IT - why ?

Because - silly- DOS will sit there DAY IN DAY OUT -

saying it just ain't so.

LONELINESS TIMMY - isn't it- a troublesome problem...

How's that POST K Street - LIFE - TOWELL? WORKING OUT?

Hillary gives you an award as you tie a man up to your bed?

HOW IS IT?

HILLARY CAN SUPPORT YOU WITH A Department of State Award - WHILE you are facing CHARGES for DRUGGING A MAN ? TOWELL ? CHAINING HIM TO YOUR BED?
This last bit is particularly boggling. Towell is a former ambassador to Paraguay who, in 2009, was accused of sexually forcing himself on an 18 year-old male. Towell was in his 70s at the time. In case you are wondering how a man that age could overpower an 18 year-old, I should mention that a gun and a machete were involved. Allegedly.

Towell's ambassadorial stint occurred in the Reagan and Bush I administrations. Later, Towell was tied to "the great Paraguay mystery" which was once a hot topic throughout blogland...
In October 2006, the Cuban news agency Prensa Latina and Paraguayan and other Latin American newspapers reported that Towell was the administrator of a 173,000 acre ranch in the Chaco region of Paraguay on behalf of former President George H. W. Bush, under whom Towell served as U.S. ambassador to the country.
See here, here, and here. Although the Paraguay/Bush allegation was always quite fascinating, I see no evidence of a tie between Towell and Hillary Clinton.

Incidentally, Balochistan is a province in Pakistan where the CIA leases the Shamsi Airfield, from which drone strikes are launched. There has long been an independence movement in Balochistan, and one of the leading figures in that movement goes by the nomme-de-guerre "Baloch Sister."

Let's get back to BillCaseyHoneyPot. Is he a spook? A hacker? A crackpot? Or -- odd thought! -- some combination of all three?

My big problem here is the simple fact that BCHP has not given us a comprehensible linear narrative. Nothing here makes sense. We don't have a story.

BCHP has given us nothing but an unorganized collection of intriguing names. His penchant for bizarre linkages and schizy repetition hardly contributes to his credibility.

Right now, I'm leaning toward the theory that we're dealing with a crackpot. But I'm willing to be talked out of that stance. Do you have any insights into this matter?

(Added note: This post has attracted some striking commentary which now has me leaning away from the "crackpot" theory.)

(Bill-O, if you're reading these words, here's some advice: Try expressing yourself more clearly. These Dan Brownian games of peekaboo cannot possibly help anyone.)

I have my suspicions of who this is...he is talking on several levels to several factions. It is coded with clues and innuendo, for whoever bites and whoever is "watching." Someone was watching enough to have it removed- I am sure he is happy to have gotten their goat, so to speak. The rest is open to speculation, but I am familiar with this...style.

Anon, could you offer any further details? Anything at all?

I am all attention...

I really can't be sure of anything, and it could be that this person, knows the person I think this is-and they have the same history and training....but I recognize that writing as a style of someone. Most of his errors are done with purpose-won't get into it here, but there is a reason he does typos and grammar errors...
There are veiled threats in these messages-that may be true, but could just be a warning shot. I don't expect more to develop than this...they took it down, they were warned. Or at least that is how he will see it, for now.
It is a bit like a game of cat and mouse...the world trudges on...and we will never know his whole purpose in the warning. I could find it entertaining for awhile, but the mystery is pretty much going to remain a mystery. Nothing ever changes- ya know? That is my final take away.
Essentially- he isn't talking to us-not really. We are just a tool to speak to his true audience. Hope that makes sense. If you want more info- I might send a pm, but I don't really like getting too into these things on the internet nowadays.

I have to resist getting too dragged into this...but I will give you an idea of how his errors work-they are a mental test for the reader... Grover is probably GeoRover. Find GeoRover and you start to see more about him--it is a game for the reader too. He gave you a clue geosync....and then Grover. But again--I am too busy to be lured into this now.

I agree that sometimes punctuation and grammar and spellings errors are deliberate, to defeat style-analyzing bots that might otherwise connect the sensitive communication to other communications on the net. It's like disguising your handwriting.

"Engulfed"? "Skimps"? At least he doesn't talk about sodium morphate or apple pie.

Maybe this Twitter account, accountname "sk1mp", screenname "skimp", leads somewhere? The user appears to be interested in Wikileaks, NSA, French and US covert ops in Central Africa, and fascist doings in the US and elsewhere.

-> skimp.in

-> Las Vegas

I was going to comment that the "it's" seemed very purposeful and found that Anonymous had specific knowledge of that, so why it stood out to me is irrelevant. Interesting, tho!

Anonymous said...

Oh god I hope this is legit. The cabal running things behind the scenes - using violence and blackmail to avoid detection or widespread exposure - needs to have its wings clipped.

Whether or not anything will ever come of any of this basically comes down to whether or not there are still any institutions of power which haven't been completely corrupted yet.

Fingers crossed.

Dojo Rat said...

Just putting together some connections -
1973 + Kissinger + Helms (CIA)= Chile coup against Allende

Passports for Michael Townley et al through Paraguay before Orlando Letellier assassination, G.W. Bush was CIA director

Currency, gold-bug issue - 1973 Bretton Woods disolved by Nixon.

I can't help but wonder if the Helms tape refers to Kennedy, and that Pakistan ISI may have something to do with the alleged killing of Bin Laden.

Maybe he is suggesting that something - if revealed could shake the faith in the U.S. dollar.

Just thinkin'

Gus said...

There are numerous song lyric references in there......some complete, some modified. Not sure what significance this has. I do know that the last comment of his, or excerpt of a comment, that you posted has a few references to the lyrics of Starship Trooper, by the band Yes:

"SISTER BALOCHISTAN -

WHAT WE don't know?"

They actual lyrics are Sister Bluebird, while the second line is verbatim.


"Though you've seen it?

PLEASE don't TELL A SOUL"

Again, verbatim lyrics from the song.

"I STILL REMEMBER THE TALKS BY THE WATER

WHO KNEW THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE LAND"

More verbatim lyrics from the same song.

There are different song lyrics interwoven in the other comments. I assume this would be part of the code he is using, but it's interesting to me. All the songs were pretty common on rock radio in the 70's and 80's.

BCHP identifies himself as a 46-year old in the complete rant - and at 12 years old (1981?) he went to Indiana University of PA where he saw spotted a 3/4" U-Matic Videocassette (which TV stations or professional video producers used in the 70s-80s) which seems to have damning evidence on it - which he claims is not for 'sale'. But it apparently exposes Nixon and Kissinger in some plan to hijack the U.S. - and alot of what we are dealing with in today's world stems from this videocassette which he harbors. Also, the "SK-91" which is "100% Pure Lockheed" may be referring to a newer reconnaissance aircraft, possibly taking over for the SR-71 "Blackbird". This 'mystery' is like finding the source/reason for a shortwave 'numbers' station.

The author's name is Timothy Felix Miltz - or Tim Miltz, as he signed earlier postings circa 2010, of which there are many (the consistent style is unmistakeable):

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/top-secret-america/2010/08/pentagon_panel_intel_budget_report_reform.html

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/postpartisan/2010/08/a_final_warning_to_wikileaks.html

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/44/2010/01/obama-reviews-christmas-day-pl.html

He claims to be a software engineer who first started working for CIA in the "Bush Sr era", which would've been 1975-1976. He says he left the Agency before "Homeland (Security)" was created, i.e. before 2002.

"Porter" is Porter Goss, Bush's CIA Chief from '04-'06.

The "Helms tape" seemingly references a recorded conversation between Richard Nixon and CIA Director Richard Helms in 1973.

In that conversation, Nixon famously mentioned "the Bay of Pigs thing", which made Helms extremely angry. It has long been speculated (by Nixon's aides, among others) that Nixon was not referring to the Bay of Pigs invasion itself - rather, it was a coded reference to the CIA's connection to the assassination of JFK. Nixon was thus attempting to subtly blackmail CIA into helping him quash the Watergate scandal.

There are many other interesting references made throughout his rants. The final thing he dangles to WaPo ("who killed Massoud") is a reference to the leader of the Afghan Northern Alliance, Ahmad Shah Massoud, who was assassinated on September 9, 2001.

Porter Goss was in Pakistan on that date through 9/11, meeting with Pakistani General Ahmad, "whose network had ties to Osama Bin Laden and directly funded, supported, and trained the Taliban" (according to Wikipedia).

If Tim Miltz is a delusional schizophrenic, he's at least a very well-read delusional schizophrenic.

Joseph Cannon said...

Anon, I looked up the name. Last year, a Timothy Miltz sent a long series of disturbing letters to Time in the wake of the Aaron Swartz controversy...

http://business.time.com/2013/01/14/mit-orders-review-of-aaron-swartz-suicide-as-soul-searching-begins/

It's obviously the same guy. The style is indeed unmistakable. And the overall message is worrying.

Basically, Miltz issued a public warning to Carmen Ortiz, the prosecutor who went after Swartz. He said that people would die if Ortiz did not resign, and he kept making reference to the fate of former CIA director Bill Colby (whose death remains a matter of some controversy).

Ortiz is still at her job, and the "people will die" prediction remains unfulfilled.

I wonder if Miltz got a visit from the cops or the FBI after that stunt...?

At any rate, thanks...

Towell is indeed a very intriguing figure, worthy of further investigation.

As for Mr. Miltz...I'm definitely starting to think that there is less than meets the eye, here. I hope soon to learn the truth.

Still too busy to review this in detail, but I don't get the same feeling in both of these characters at first glance. Use of Caps does not equate to "same style" ...remember, one is threatening the lives of others-and one is putting their life on the line. Different.
When I have time - will look it over more.

2 things: Check out @FearDept's Tweet: https://twitter.com/FearDept/status/570531460882391040?s=09

It is suggested in a comment on that tweet that the author's name is Tim Miltz.

Now read the comments here from 2010:

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/top-secret-america/2010/08/pentagon_panel_intel_budget_report_reform.html

I have no vested interest in this whatsoever. Just thought I would help you out - if this indeed does.

Ok- Joseph--you are convinced- and that's all that matters. i really am putting too much time into this. but the style is not exactly the same at reading with brevity...you are trying too hard to make it something it isn't. You aren;t doing what he wants you to do, so it is now dead. But ask yourself something--who would put their name online-and tweet about making money on surveys, while also tweeting about their comments just last month? Do you think the intellect of this person is really the same of the other? I don't...I am smarter than Miltz-and that isn't saying a lot. . Moving on......

I believe Grover refers to the second programning law for quantum computing. It is used to search huge databases incredibly quickly. With the power of quantum computers all encryption is useless. Before you can blink a quantum computer will have your data pulled.

Google "Grover's Quantum Search Algorithm"
