Drug war hypocrisy: drug trafficking’s big money benefits
Big Brother and corrupt banksters
PF Louis | The hypocrisy of the war on drugs is centers on the amount of
drug trafficking that benefits the CIA and international banking system.
Natural News February 1, 2012 ‘The hypocrisy of
the war on drugs is outrageous when compared to the amount of drug trafficking
that benefits the CIA and international banking system. The son of a convicted
notorious mobster, John Gotti Jr, when asked in court if the family still dealt
drugs cracked, “No, we can’t compete with the government.”
Today in Afghanistan, American troops have been seen guarding
poppy fields used to make heroin. Those fields were all but wiped out by 2001
when the Taliban destroyed them and forbade that agricultural pursuit. Now they’re flourishing again after the American occupation.
This doesn’t make sense despite all the
mainstream reports that American troops are protecting the poppy farmers from
the bad guys. Internet sites such as Prison Planet, Info Wars, The Political Coffeehouse
and others report otherwise. They connect the CIA and US military to restarting
the poppy fields in Afghanistan in 2002, increasing poppy growth by over 650
percent. Who’s telling it like it is?
The CIA’s secret operations to influence journalism started in the 1950s
by infiltrating the media and bribing journalists to be operatives and assets
for the CIA. By 1976, then CIA director William Colby reportedly bragged that
the CIA owned the press. Supposedly, this too secret to name operation was
coined “Operation Mockingbird” by Deborah Davis in her book Katherine the Great.
Operation Mockingbird worked
well against prize winning journalist Gary Webb when his newspaper, the San
Jose Mercury News, ran his in depth series on CIA drug trafficking that
flooded the USA to help finance the CIA backed Nicaraguan Contras during the
1980s.
Journalists all over the USA
jumped on the series, claiming Webb’s journalism was shoddy. The
newspaper had to recant and fire him, and Gary Webb was black listed from
mainstream journalism completely.
Webb retaliated by having his book Dark Alliance
published and making the NY Times best seller list, forcing some of his
critics to privately eat crow after the fact.
Despite the CIA’s control of the press, a few
Mexico and Central America cocaine busts of plane cargoes and discoveries of
large cocaine stashes on crashed planes with CIA hired pilots flying them for
front companies did hit the mainstream news, albeit briefly.
Remember the movie “Air America?” It was based on an actual CIA owned front company transporting
tons of heroin from Southeast Asia’s “Golden Triangle” poppy fields during and after
the Vietnam conflicts. Now Afghanistan and the “Golden Crescent” are the featured opium/heroin
conduit sources.
When the U.S. government made
deals with the Cosa Nostra mafia to help police ports and harbors during WW II,
they breathed life into the heroin trade. Eventually, Marseilles, France was
set up by the Corsican mafia to become the “French Connection” for heroin traffic.
But opium trade history goes
back further, to colonial times and early America. That’s when American shipping magnates used their fast Clipper Ships
to compete with England’s monarch sanctioned dope
running East India Company for transporting opium to China.
A few key players created
family fortunes from the China opium trade that exist today within some
northeast America’s “old money” families.
Among the familiar family
names, according to Wikipedia (source below) is Forbes. Another source
mentions Astor, a prominently wealthy philanthropic family around New York
today (Wiki source below). In those days, trafficking dope was a legitimate
business endeavor, immoral but not illegal.
Now it is illegal as well.
Ironically, this allows the biggest illicit drug providers to financially
benefit the CIA and international banking.’
