McFarlane Testimony Reveals Lopez Contras Contact and Doubt
McFarlane described closer contact with the director than expected and suggested Casey directed North's actions in Iran and Nicaragua. He testified he briefed Reagan dozens of times on aid to the contras, often when aid was barred by law, and noted the president interpreted the policy more loosely than he did. He admitted not informing Reagan about Iran arms proceeds being diverted to the contras and reflected on personal risks during a Tehran trip. Calero admitted giving 50000 in traveler’s checks to North for hostage ransom plans amid Saudi contributions totaling about 32.5 million in 1984 85. Reagan cited limited access to his diaries while Congress questions continued.
