The Ties That Bind The Bush & Clinton Crime Family's: The CIA's Global Drug & Jihad Empire

The Ties That Bind The Bush & Clinton Crime Family's: The CIA's Global Drug & Jihad Empire

So I wrote another 'book'. At a character count of 163,000+ this one is far 'larger' than The Hypocrites Iron Fist - The PC Movement in light of the War on Drugs, but it has many more hyperlinks too. Aside from a handful of images, this is all "new" material and an entirely different discussion altogether.

I didn't expect this to go so wide. I was mainly intent on wrapping it around the Balkan's Conflict buildup to 9/11, to show that the Bush's and the Clinton's are one in the same. But as I went it became more and more clear the only way to truly tell the story (especially via 'mere headlines') the historical precedents and the post 9/11 happenings were 'mandatory'. In the process I started realizing 'new' patterns myself which helped broaden it further. I didn't even intend for it to come out as such a clear case against the War On Drugs (WOD) the way it ended up, but it became unavoidable.

The conclusion I've come to reach by all this data assembled like this is that combined the two 'huge' debates (the Mexico border situation + rapid spread of radical Islam) that have been such a "big deal" the past couple decades show themselves to be but vehicles for combined national & global scale coc aine & heroin distribution. We've "all" known that the wars for decades now have generally been "all" about oil and the perpetual war economy. But only in fully realizing this history can we truly appreciate that they've pretty much 'always' been about the drug trade too (especially in "their" self-justifications in embracing it all).

Take the immigration, or rather the OPEN BORDER issue. I argue that 'the whole' reason it was left that way (initially anyways), why no matter who was "in charge", where despite everybody agreeing it needed serious effort, even in the face of "terrorists walking over it with suitcase nukes" (post-911) it just stayed the same. What I've come to believe is to maintain the War On Drugs Model, it needs to be open the way it has been. Gotta keep them drugs rolling in every which way AND those 'undocumented gang bangers' (not to imply that all illegal immigrants are gangbangers) to push the stuff, to keep them militarized cops goosestepping, keep them jails full, the judges/lawyers etc etc etc etc. Regardless of lip service, neither has REALLY tried ANYTHING to fix the 'wall' or the WOD. DNC can speak against the WOD, here and there, as long as they keep it open then we still "need" a WOD. GOP can talk about the wall, here and there, as long as still support the WOD then we still "need" the WOD. This kind of effect across essentially every sphere of our society / system related to all of this.

At first the timeline will surely come off as a cluster-'bomb' having the situations stemming from both Columbian coc aine and Afghani heroin (and more). But to truly see the patterns emerge it really all has to be together.

In the timeline, many entries are actual events, where others are 'blips' when reports surfaced. I intended to 'only' run it with pure 'headlines' and quotes from them the best I could. There's maybe an 'entire page' total of my own added commentary, which should all be in [braces]. Essentially everything below is "mainstream" history (although much of it is under-reported and therefore often obscure).

Iraq was never really a drug front, but key moments in their timeline are included as Iraq goes on to help set the stage for ISIS becoming a regional power. I also left out most of the 1970's buildup to the Sandanista's situation in Nicaragua (which wasn't the actual source of coc aine it just played a huge part in this history), but I did make it a huge point to show the buildup to how things unfolded in Afghanistan (which is the top source of heroin on the planet).

Compartmentalization: Note that you will see 'conflictions' across the timeline. For example, where it's often "the CIA" behind or facilitating the drug rings, it's not to say it's the entire CIA (or DEA, or "government", or Muslim's, etc). There are plenty if not a majority of perfectly good people in any such group or organization putting out factual reports etc. While with the CIA, it's the perfect example of an entity that by it's very nature is compartmentalized every which way inside and out.

While I did hope to paint the Clinton's for what I truly believe they are, I wasn't intent on making this about the election directly. I also had zero intent on even mentioning Trump's name. But as I reached the end I decided that following this historical narrative, where "both" parties have both always done their part in ensuring the War On Drugs remained perpetual, I came to the conclusion that perhaps the biggest reason the Ruling Establishment is so against him is because in the past he went on record saying that WOD needs to end, while today he's attacking the two biggest mechanisms that facilitate it (the open Mexican border plus rapid unchecked spread of radical Islam). So I did mention Trump a few times in there. If you're entering this as an anti-Trump, please do proceed with an open mind and note this work wasn't meant to be an attack on liberalism or conservatism (or even Muslim's or Mexican's), it was meant to be a disassembly of what the Republican's & Democrat's with their Big Banks, Military Industrial Complex & CIA have 'always been' in practice.

For sake of presentation the usual 'quote' type code isn't used in the timeline. The vast majority of Bin Laden, Al Qaeda & the Balkan's entries were sourced from History Commons. Everything else was piecemealed and links included. For the unlinked History Commons entries see these category pages:

THE ULTIMATE TIMELINE OF CIA SPONSORED DRUGS + JIHAD

What to watch for, by the decade:
Pre-1980's:
Mostly just historical background of how the CIA has pretty much always 'been about' running drugs 'to fund secret wars', and War On Drugs foundational stuff.
1980's:
This is where the War On Drugs starts running hot, yet at the same time you see a simultaneous obsession with Afghanistan (which set up what it would become as Osama's home base on 9/11) and in facilitating the import of Columbian coc aine.
1990's:
Here the Cold War has ended, and now new 'necessary wars' are needed to keep the 'Military Industrial Complex Economy' running. This plays out an a preoccupation in Iraq, but far more importantly the situation in the Balkan's (which I had intended to frame this entire piece around). Here you see the CIA working side by side with Al Qaeda (many years beyond them being declared our "enemy") to fabricate the entire sectarian proxy war there. Afghanistan and the heroin trade are all over this entire scene. Meanwhile, CIA coc aine activities are being exposed to the public while the Mexican cartel scene is firing up. What surprised me was for the first time realizing that the "Big Story" behind NAFTA would appear to be all about the drugs trade.
2000's:
Things are mostly 'where they belong' now. US troops are protesting the opium poppy fields (quite literally). The ongoing big news on the coc aine front isn't about the Columbian cartel's anymore (the stuff always flows from there no matter what), but instead the WAR going on in Mexico. Although the rapid spread of Islamist's is the new frontier in the tale.
2010's:
Now we see the spread of "ISIS" (Al Qaeda becomes an imperialist government) across the Middle East, and the effects of the rapid (rabid like) spread of Islam across the EU. Specifics to coc aine and opium themselves nothing much changes logistically from the 2010's. But lots of 'exciting' news on the WOD political front. Massive LEAKS going public online are the new thing of this era, and not just the election leaks!
1980's-Present:
Columbian coke & Afghani opium, wars, reign supreme across the era's. Yet the correlated trend is also this nurturing / emboldening, and downright embracing of Radical Islam.

To look at it all as it goes it gets harder to imagine 'they' had time for anything but drugs....


1920-1933: Alcohol Prohibition creates National Criminal Gangsterism Crisis & helps fuel a lasting era of infamously networked Italian Mafioso organizations.
"Organized crime received a major boost from Prohibition. Mafia groups limited their activities to prostitution, gambling, and theft until 1920, when organized bootlegging emerged in response to Prohibition. A profitable, often violent, black market for alcohol flourished. Prohibition provided a financial basis for organized crime to flourish. In a study of more than 30 major U.S. cities during the Prohibition years of 1920 and 1921, the number of crimes increased by 24%. Additionally, theft and burglaries increased by 9%, homicides by 12.7%, assaults and battery rose by 13%, drug addiction by 44.6%, and police department costs rose by 11.4%. This was largely the result of "black-market violence" and the diversion of law enforcement resources elsewhere. Despite the Prohibition movement's hope that outlawing alcohol would reduce crime, the reality was that the Volstead Act led to higher crime rates than were experienced prior to Prohibition and the establishment of a black market dominated by criminal organizations. The Saint Valentine's Day Massacre produced seven deaths, considered one of the deadliest days of mob history"." en.wikipedia.org...


1943: CIA precursor OSS works with Sicilian Mafia during WW2.
"The Sicilian Mafia was decimated by the start of World War II. Mussolini’s repression left it clinging to strongholds in Sicily. The Allied occupation reversed this decline. The CIA’s precursor, the US Office of Strategic Services (OSS), teamed with organized crime during the July 1943 invasion of Sicily. That was when the US Army appointed Don Calogero Vizzini, a local Mafia boss, mayor of Villalba. He was certain his US ties gave him impunity, so he murdered the local intrusive police chief. The US installed mayors like Vizzini throughout western Sicily, as the US-Mafia partnership persisted." www.alternet.org...


1946: The US Army School of the Americas (SOA) is founded.
"From 1961 was assigned the specific goal of teaching "anti-communist counterinsurgency training," a role which it would fulfill for the rest of the Cold War.[3] In this period, it educated several Latin American dictators, generations of their military and, during the 1980s, included the uses of torture in its curriculum.[4][5] In 2000/2001, the institute was renamed to Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation (WHINSEC)." en.wikipedia.org... [Amongst many controveries, some students would go on to form COlubian paramilitary rebel groups, which would eventually influence the rise of AUC.]

1947: The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) is formed.

1947: CIA backs Li Mi (Kuomintang Party, China).
"Its first allies included members of Chiang Kai-Shek’s Chinese Nationalist (Kuomintang, or KMT) Party, which Mao kicked out of mainland China in 1949. KMT members were already seasoned drug smugglers, having brought opium and heroin into the US in the 1920s. Among the KMT’s key North American contacts were Chinese residents of Mexico. The DEA’s predecessor, the Federal Bureau of Narcotics, observed in 1946 that “in a recent Kuomintang Convention in Mexico City a wide solicitation of funds for the future operation of the opium trade was noted.” This future apparently was secured, as KMT opium continued entering the US from Mexico in 1947. ...CIA-employed pilots carried Li Mi’s opium from Burma to Police General Phao Sriyanond in Bangkok, who later funneled weapons to Li Mi to aid a planned invasion of southern China. This elite Thai cop appointed himself head of the police department in the aftermath of a 1947 military coup. He then fortified his organization to the point where it rivaled the military by late 1950. The CIA played a crucial role in this transformation. In August 1950, an agency team traveled to Bangkok where—with approval from the US State and Defense Departments—it worked out a deal to equip and train a Thai paramilitary force. "http://www.alternet.org/drugs/meet-cias-10-favorite-drug-traffickers "CIA ties to international drug trafficking date to the Korean War. In 1949, two of Chiang Kai-shek's defeated generals, Li Wen Huan and Tuan Shi Wen, marched their Third and Fifth Route armies, with families and livestock, across the mountains to northern Burma. Once installed, the peasant soldiers began cultivating the crop they knew best, the opium poppy." www.nytimes.com...

Mossadegh had sought to audit the documents of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company (AIOC), a British corporation (now part of BP) and to limit the company's control over Iranian petroleum reserves. Upon the refusal of the AIOC to co-operate with the Iranian government, the parliament (Majlis) voted to nationalize Iran's oil industry and to expel foreign corporate representatives from the country. ..." en.wikipedia.org...


1953-1967: CIA's Project MKUltrab ecomes well known for administering drugs in its human experiments on US & Canadian Citizens.
"MKUltra used numerous methodologies to manipulate people's mental states and alter brain functions, including the surreptitious administration of drugs (especially '___') and other chemicals, hypnosis,[10] sensory deprivation, isolation, verbal and sexual abuse, as well as various forms of torture. ...The experiments were exported to Canada when the CIA recruited Scottish psychiatrist Donald Ewen Cameron, creator of the "psychic driving" concept, which the CIA found particularly interesting... In addition to '___', Cameron also experimented with various paralytic drugs as well as electroconvulsive therapy at thirty to forty times the normal power. His "driving" experiments consisted of putting subjects into drug-induced coma for weeks at a time (up to three months in one case) while playing tape loops of noise or simple repetitive statements. His experiments were typically carried out on patients who had entered the institute for minor problems such as anxiety disorders and postpartum depression, many of whom suffered permanently from his actions.[45] His treatments resulted in victims' incontinence, amnesia, forgetting how to talk, forgetting their parents, and thinking their interrogators were their parents...During this era Cameron became known worldwide as the first chairman of the World Psychiatric Association as well as president of the American and Canadian psychiatric associations. Cameron had also been a member of the Nuremberg medical tribunal in 1946–47... " en.wikipedia.org...

1960's: CIA helps Laos tribesman traffick Opium.
"During the Vietnam War, operations in Laos were largely a CIA responsibility. The agency's surrogate there was a Laotian general, Vang Pao, who commanded Military Region 2 in northern Laos. He enlisted 30,000 Hmong tribesmen in the service of the CIA. These tribesmen continued to grow, as they had for generations, the opium poppy. Before long, someone - there were unproven allegations that it was a Mafia family from Florida - had established a heroin refining lab in Region Two. The lab's production was soon being ferried out on the planes of the CIA's front airline, Air America. A pair of BNDD agents tried to seize an Air America." www.nytimes.com...

1960's: Cuba "The Corporation" (José Miguel Battle, Sr.).
"A former policeman in Fulgencio Batista's Cuba, Battle assisted the Central Intelligence Agency in the early 1960s in training Cuban exiles and personally volunteering as a soldier in the Cuban liberation effort of the Bay of Pigs Invasion in April 1961." en.wikipedia.org... "But this campaign failed—as did the well-known Mafia-aided attempt to murder Castro. Cuban exiles therefore had to adapt to life in the US. Battle and his associates formed La Compañía—the Corporation—basing it in Miami, but operating in California, Nevada, New Jersey New York and elsewhere in the US. The gang imported coc aine, heroin and marijuana en route to becoming a $45-million-a-year illicit gambling collective." www.alternet.org...

1963: CIA backed Iraq coup d'état.
"As its instrument the C.I.A. had chosen the authoritarian and anti-Communist Baath Party, in 1963 still a relatively small political faction influential in the Iraqi Army. According to the former Baathist leader Hani Fkaiki, among party members colluding with the C.I.A. in 1962 and 1963 was Saddam Hussein, then a 25-year-old who had fled to Cairo after taking part in a failed assassination of Kassem in 1958." www.nytimes.com...


Late 1960's: Manuel Noriega recruited & trained by CIA.
"Noriega was recruited as a CIA informant while studying at a military academy in Peru. He received intelligence and counterintelligence training at the School of the Americas at Fort Gulick, Panama, in 1967, as well as a course in psychological operations at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He was to remain on the CIA payroll until February 1988. After a military coup in 1968, Noriega quickly rose through the ranks and became head of Panama's military intelligence and a key figure under General Omar Torrijos, the military ruler who signed a treaty with the US to restore the Panama canal zone to Panamanian sovereignty in 1977." www.theguardian.com...

Ford had even considered appointing Bush as his Vice-President, but instead offered him the job of DCI. ...Bush quietly left Washington and returned to Texas, where he built up support for his campaign to be the Republican nominee for President in 1980. ...These positions made Bush the only producer (as DCI) and consumer (as President) of intelligence in a single career."https://www.cia.gov/news-information/featured-story-archive/2016-featured-story-archive/bush-as-director-of-central-intelligence.html

From 1981 on, the NSC learns of BCCI’s role in illegal technology deals for Pakistan, Iraq, Libya, Iran, and other countries. A clear picture has emerged by the start of 1984.

1983-1985: Juan Ramón Matta-Ballesteros' SETCO flies coc aine for CIA Contra operations.
According to the Kerry Committee report (an investigation into government involvement in drug trafficking, as a result of information that surfaced during the Iran-Contra affair): the Honduran airline SETCO was "the principal company used by the Contras in Honduras to transport supplies and personnel for the [FDN (one of the earliest Contra groups)], carrying at least a million rounds of ammunition, food, uniforms and other military supplies [for the Contras] . . . from 1983 to 1985." SETCO received funds for Contra supply operations from the Contra accounts established by Oliver North. In 1983, a U.S. Customs Investigative Report found that “SETCO stands for Services Ejecutivos Turistas Commander and is headed by Juan Ramon Matta-Ballestros, a class I DEA violator.” The same report states that according to the Drug Enforcement Administration, “SETCO aviation is a corporation formed by American businessmen who are dealing with Matta and are smuggling narcotics into the United States."[8] Matta had been identified by the DEA in 1985 as the most important member of a consortium moving a major share (perhaps a third, perhaps more than half) of all the coc aine from Colombia to the United States.[citation needed] The report went on to conclude that "the Colombian-Mexican relationship, developed by Juan Ramon Matta-Ballesteros, a Honduran with close ties to the Cali groups, led to an explosion of coc aine shipments through Mexico, with coc aine seizures in that country rising from 2.3 tons in 1985 to 9.3 tons in 1987." en.wikipedia.org...

The US relied on Panama as a regional listening post and Noriega obliged with unfaltering support for the Contras in Nicaragua, and in the fight against the FMLN guerrillas in El Salvador. At the same time, he began to play an increasingly repressive role internally in Panama, especially after the assassination of Hugo Spadafora, a political opponent who was found beheaded in 1985. Noriega allegedly played a role in the mid-1980s Iran-Contra affair, which involved the smuggling of weapons and drugs to aid US undercover efforts to support the anti-government forces opposing the Sandinistas in Nicaragua." www.bbc.com...

At that delicate political moment, legal proceedings in a major drug bust in San Francisco threatened to publicly link CIA-Contra operations with coc aine trafficking. The "Frogman Case" - so named because scuba divers were caught ferrying $100 million worth of coc aine from a Colombian freighter at San Francisco's pier 96 - was California's biggest drug bust in the early 1980s."

Bush, according to the Iran-contra report, was kept informed of these fund-raising activities. In May 1984, Bush was the first person notified, after the president, about a $1-million-a-month contribution promised by Saudi Arabia.

Throughout the ‘80s he was armed by the CIA and funded by the Saudis to wage jihad against the Russian occupation of Afghanistan.

"The New York Times reports that “Afghanistan is one place where the drug issue has been subordinated to the [Reagan] administration’s policy of supporting anti-Communist insurgencies.” In interviews with The New York Times in 1986, dozens of Afghan rebel leaders admitted cultivating and selling opium poppies. US intelligence suspects that the same planes and trucks sending US aid to rebels in Afghanistan are returning to Pakistan with drugs. However, little is being done about this. One anonymous Reagan administration official tells the Times: “We’re not going to let a little thing like drugs get in the way of the political situation. And when the Soviets leave and there’s no money in the country, it’s not going to be a priority to disrupt the drug trade”."

In exchange, Noriega appropriated Black Eagle's fleet of cargo planes to smuggle coc aine and marijuana into the U.S. on behalf of the notorious Medellín cartel of Colombia. Several of those involved with the operation contend that Bush and Gregg knew about Noriega's use of Black Eagle for drug running and that nothing was done to stop it."

1990-1993: DEA, CIA & US State Dept. backed "Los PEPES" paramilitary group formed to fight Pablo Escobar.
"Los Pepes, a name derived from the Spanish phrase "Perseguidos por Pablo Escobar" ("Persecuted by Pablo Escobar"), was a short-lived vigilante group composed of enemies of drug lord Pablo Escobar. ...There are reports that Los Pepes had ties to some members of the Colombian National Police, especially the Search Bloc (Bloque de Búsqueda), with whom they exchanged information in order to execute their activities against Escobar.[3] According to documents released to the public by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in 2008, "Colombian National Police director general Miguel Antonio Gómez Padilla said 'that he had directed a senior CNP intelligence officer to maintain contact with Fidel Castaño, paramilitary leader of Los Pepes, for the purposes of intelligence collection'." en.wikipedia.org... "In 1993, Carlos Castaño, head of the United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia (AUC, in its Spanish acronym)—the main paramilitary entity—teamed with Colombian authorities and the CIA to topple Colombian kingpin Pablo Escobar. Castaño estimated before his 2004 assassination that 70% of his funding derived from drug smuggling, and the DEA agreed. Its former deputy administrator, James Milford, cited Castaño’s links to the North Valle cartel and concluded that the paramilitary leader was a “major coc aine trafficker in his own right.” Another DEA official, Donnie Marshall, explained that the paramilitaries “raise funds through extortion, or by protecting laboratory operations in northern and central Colombia,” and that they “appear to be directly involved in processing coc aine. At least one of these paramilitary groups appears to be involved in exporting coc aine from Colombia.” www.alternet.org...

"A true paradox lies at the heart of the Clinton legacy. Both Hillary and Bill continue to enjoy enormous popularity among African Americans despite the devastating legacy of a presidency that resulted in the impoverishment and incarceration of hundreds of thousands of poor and working-class black people. Most shockingly, the total numbers of state and federal inmates grew more rapidly under Bill Clinton than under any other president, including the notorious Republican drug warriors Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, and George H. W. Bush. This fact alone should at least make one pause before granting unquestioning fealty to Hillary, but of course there are many others, including her entry into electoral politics through the 1964 Goldwater campaign, resolute support for the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act, race-baiting tactics in the 2008 election, and close ties to lobbyists for the private prison industry. Nevertheless, until the encounter with BLM protestors in August 2015, few publicly called out the Clintons’ shared culpability for our contemporary prison nation that subjects a third of African American men to a form of correctional control in their lifetime." newrepublic.com...

He states that for the US to maintain its global primacy, it must prevent any possible adversary from controlling that region. He notes: “The attitude of the American public toward the external projection of American power has been much more ambivalent. The public supported America’s engagement in World War II largely because of the shock effect of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.” He predicts that because of popular resistance to US military expansionism, his ambitious Central Asian strategy can not be implemented, “except in the circumstance of a truly massive and widely perceived direct external threat”."

After meeting with senior army officials, he visits Afghanistan with ISI Director Mahmood. They meet Taliban leader Mullah Omar and try to convince him that the US is likely to launch an attack on Afghanistan. They insist bin Laden be sent to Saudi Arabia, where he would be held in custody and not handed over to any third country. If bin Laden were to be tried in Saudi Arabia, Abdullah would help make sure he is acquitted. Mullah Omar apparently rejects the proposal. The article suggests that Abdullah is secretly a supporter of bin Laden and is trying to protect him from harm."

December 2010: The Arab Spring
"...was a revolutionary wave of demonstrations and protests (both non-violent and violent), riots, and civil wars in the Arab world... Major insurgencies in Syria, Libya and Yemen resulted along with civil uprisings in Egypt and Bahrain, large street demonstrations in Algeria, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Morocco and Oman, and minor protests even in Saudi Arabia. ...The Arab Spring is widely believed to have been instigated by dissatisfaction with the rule of local governments, particularly by youth and unions, though some have speculated that wide gaps in income levels may have had a hand as well. Other analysts pointed to the fourth stage "Toppling the Regimes" of the Al Qaeda strategy for world domination, described in Fouad Hussein's book published in 2005. Numerous factors led to the protests, including issues such as dictatorship or absolute monarchy, human rights violations, political corruption (demonstrated by Wikileaks diplomatic cables), economic decline, unemployment, extreme poverty, and a number of demographic structural factors, such as a large percentage of educated but dissatisfied youth within the entire population." en.wikipedia.org... en.wikipedia.org...

July 24, 2012: Mexican official: CIA 'manages' drug trade.
"The US Central Intelligence Agency and other international security forces "don't fight drug traffickers", a spokesman for the Chihuahua state government in northern Mexico has told Al Jazeera, instead "they try to manage the drug trade". Allegations about official complicity in the drug business are nothing new when they come from activists, professors, campaigners or even former officials. However, an official spokesman for the authorities in one of Mexico's most violent states - one which directly borders Texas - going on the record with such accusations is unique." www.aljazeera.com...

September 2012: The 'Arab Fall' (Banghazi & the Film Protests).
[This story gets weird. I stumbled 'upon it' in this project. I wasn't even sure I would include this timeline entry at all, until this. Huma's memo (from one of the big email leaks this year) congradulates credits "H" "inspiring the "peaceful" protests". What's crazy is the backsotory of the film, and then the versin that 'mysteriously' came about and culmninated as a protest crisis across the Midele East leading right in to the Benghazi "embassy" attack by Al Qaeda (which was a planned attack). The film literally became the perfect media coverage "patsy" for all of the other strange phenomena surrounding the entire issue set. Weirder and weirder the story gets as you look at it, especially considering Al Qaeda groups were major organizers Al Qaeda fronts. FULL DISCUSSION: ]

September 8: “Muhammad Movie Trailer” "was all over Egyptian religious television—with its crude sexual jokes about Muhammad being gay and interested in “dominant or submissive” coitus with little girls and prostitutes—and bedlam erupted in the Middle East, with as many as 50 deaths recorded." www.thedailybeast.com...

Lyons says that Barack Obama intentionally conspired with America’s enemies to stage a bogus attack on the U.S. compound in Benghazi, Libya, and the bogus kidnapping of Ambassador Chris Stevens. According to the plan, Obama would successfully “negotiate” for Stevens’ release in a prisoner exchange, which would bolster the POS’s then-mediocre approval ratings just prior to the 2012 election. In Lyons’ words, “The attack on the American Consulate in Benghazi . . . was the result of a bungled abduction attempt . . . the first stage of an international prisoner exchange . . . that would have ensured the release of Omar Abdel Rahman, the ‘Blind Sheik’.”" 2016: The memo by Huma Abedin is leaked.

December 13, 2012: Outrageous HSBC Settlement Proves the Drug War is a Joke.
"If you've ever been arrested on a drug charge, if you've ever spent even a day in jail for having a stem of marijuana in your pocket or "drug paraphernalia" in your gym bag, Assistant Attorney General and longtime Bill Clinton pal Lanny Breuer has a message for you: Bite me. Breuer this week signed off on a settlement deal with the British banking giant HSBC that is the ultimate insult to every ordinary person who's ever had his life altered by a narcotics charge. Despite the fact that HSBC admitted to laundering billions of dollars for Colombian and Mexican drug cartels (among others) and violating a host of important banking laws (from the Bank Secrecy Act to the Trading With the Enemy Act), Breuer and his Justice Department elected not to pursue criminal prosecutions of the bank, opting instead for a "record" financial settlement of $1.9 billion, which as one analyst noted is about five weeks of income for the bank." www.rollingstone.com... "A report compiled for the committee detailed how HSBC's subsidiaries transported billions of dollars of cash in armoured vehicles, cleared suspicious travellers' cheques worth billions, and allowed Mexican drug lords buy to planes with money laundered through Cayman Islands accounts. Other subsidiaries moved money from Iran, Syria and other countries on US sanctions lists, and helped a Saudi bank linked to al-Qaida to shift money to the US." www.theguardian.com...

September 06, 2013: Iran-Contra Redux? Prince Bandar Heads Secret Saudi-CIA Effort to Aid Syrian Rebels, Topple Assad.
"The Wall Street Journal recently revealed new details about how Prince Bandar bin Sultan al-Saud — Saudi’s former ambassador to the United States — is leading the effort to prop up the Syrian rebels. Intelligence agents from Saudi Arabia, the United States, Jordan and other allied states are working at a secret joint operations center in Jordan to train and arm hand-picked Syrian rebels. The Journal also reports Prince Bandar has been jetting from covert command centers near the Syrian front lines to the Élysée Palace in Paris and the Kremlin in Moscow, seeking to undermine the Assad regime. "Really what he’s doing is he’s reprising a role that he played in the 1980s when he worked with the Reagan administration to arrange money and arms for mujahideen fighters in Afghanistan and also worked with the CIA in Nicaragua to support the Contras," says Wall Street Journal reporter Adam Entous. "So in many ways this is a very familiar position for Prince Bandar, and it’s amazing to see the extent to which veterans of the CIA were excited to see him come back because, in the words of a diplomat who knows Bandar, he brings the Arabic term wasta, which means under-the-table clout. You know his checks are not going to bounce and that he’ll be able to deliver the money from the Saudis."

The 2011 report reveals a total of 6,775 requests. 5,093 were used for drugs, while only 31 (or .5%) were used for terrorism cases. The 2012 report follows a similar pattern: Only .6%, or 58 requests, dealt with terrorism cases. The 2013 report confirms the incredibly low numbers.

Klein, who was tried in absentia in 2001 and sentenced to ten years for providing military training to paramilitary group AUC, claims that the CIA hired him to train Colombians on the Caribbean island of Antigua in the 1980s to overthrow the Panamanian government. The operation, Klein says, was canceled one week before it was supposed to occur, and the US military invaded Panama less than a year later and deposed then-President Manuel Noriega." colombiareports.com...

One in eleven prisoners is Muslim. This surge in Muslim crime is not being discussed openly within the community, most probably out of a sense of shame. But in reality, we should be feel ashamed precisely because we are not discussing these problems openly and confronting them. ...So what sort of crime is being committed and who is doing it? ...Maqsood Ahmed, the Muslim Advisor to the Prison Service appointed by the government in 1999, says that currently (as of June 2000) 1005 out of the 4003 Muslim inmates have committed crimes related to drug pushing or drug use. So one in four of British Muslim prisoners have been convicted for drug-related offences. ...We need to face facts: Muslim involvement in hard drugs is not confined to Muslims in the West. Of the traditional ‘natural’ drugs, Muslims are heavily involved with the planting, harvesting, refinement, smuggling, and distribution to Europe of heroin and cannabis." masud.co.uk...

"The one way of stemming illegal immigration that Republicans aren’t talking about." www.huffingtonpost.com...

When these people succeed in crossing the border, they may choose either to continue to transport drugs for the cartel or to remain in the United States illegally. ...Because the federal government estimates that only 10-20 percent of all illegal immigrants are apprehended, as many as 4 million undocumented immigrants may enter the country undetected every year. Federal officials have also estimated that nearly 80-90 percent of illegal drugs entering the United States come from Mexico. Most of these drugs are smuggled in by illegal immigrants. ...In 2005, federal law-enforcement seizure counts for coc aine and marijuana alone were astounding. The government stated that 1.13 million pounds of coc aine and 6.9 million pounds of marijuana with a total estimated street value of more than $80 billion dollars was seized.

"I'm not going to be using Justice Department resources to try to circumvent state laws on this issue," he vowed, promising an end to the Bush administration's high-profile raids on providers of medical pot, which is legal in 16 states and the District of Columbia. But over the past year, the Obama administration has quietly unleashed a multi­agency crackdown on medical cannabis that goes far beyond anything undertaken by George W. Bush. The feds are busting growers who operate in full compliance with state laws, vowing to seize the property of anyone who dares to even rent to legal pot dispensaries, and threatening to imprison state employees responsible for regulating medical marijuana." www.rollingstone.com...

From her criminal justice agenda as First Lady to her foreign policies as Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton has proven herself to be one of the greatest drug warriors of our generation. At a time when two-thirds of Americans support ending the War on Drugs, it’s crucial for her record on the issue to be brought to light. ...Over the course of Hillary Clinton’s tenure as Secretary of State, the Mexican Drug War spiraled into chaos, killing over 160,000 people and displacing millions of others. ...While Hillary Clinton is willing to speak vaguely against the War on Drugs, she refuses to embrace meaningful reforms to current drug policies. While most Americans agree that marijuana should be legal, Clinton supports rescheduling it to Schedule II, the same category as coc aine and methamphetamine. This proposal would do little to end the War on Drugs, but would facilitate research on medical marijuana and allow pharmaceutical companies to sell cannabinoid drugs." marijuanapolitics.com...
