Weren’t there reports of money laundering by the DEA for Columbian drug cartels during the Clinton administration?

Just yesterday I read that severalthopusands of guns sold legally to Mexican police and military are showing up in the hands of the Cartels.

Anybody with half a brain knows that banks are laundering money for drug Cartels, but I have yet to read about one White Collar banker being arrested for it.

The war on drugs is failing because the Mexican Government and parts of our own government are getting rich off drug profits.

I don't trust the Mexican government nor it's military as far as I can throw them and I do not trust our own government much farther. How can I when I read of Executive Orders taking the place of laws and Justice and Homeland Security paying no attention to subpoena's.Ignoring laws and then suing States for doing the job they will not do.

What Does Sec. of State Clinton Know About Fast and Furious (and El Paso)?

http://biggovernment.com/awrhawkins/2011/12/07/what-does-sec-of-state-clinton-know-about-fast-and-furious-and-el-paso/

In July, I had a post on Big Government about an article in the El Paso Times which detailed an alleged gun smuggling operation into Mexico from El Paso, TX and/or Columbus, NM. The weapons being smuggled were not part of the 2,500 guns Holder & Co. let walk into Mexico from Arizona, but were alleged to have been regularly transported from the Dallas/Fort Worth area into El Paso or Columbus in an operation overseen by Obama’s State Department.

The weapons smuggled weren’t .22 rifles, .410 shotguns, or pellet guns. Rather, we’re talking about “anti-aircraft weapons and hand grenades from the Vietnam War era [as well as] grenade launchers, assault rifles, handguns, and military gear including night-vision goggles and body armor.” According to at least one former DEA official and one “CIA contract pilot,” the weapons were being sold to drug cartel members in Mexico, where they were being stockpiled for use at an unspecified future place and time.

Is ‘Fast and Furious’ Just the Tip of Obama’s Gun Smuggling Iceberg?

All this patterned after the Clinton Administration’s ICBMwalker program for Red China? I bet it was.

Several thousand guns were provided to cartels in ten alleged gunwalking operations, and hundreds of millions of dollars were potentially laundered on their behalf. All of it was orchestrated in the Justice Department, apparently at the highest levels.

But so far not one single person has admitted or been named as knowing anything about it. TRANSPARENCY!

Issa wrote that, according to the report, many agents said the $10 million requirement was frequently “waived” because it was treated more like a guideline.


"They're more like guidelines than actual laws if you're a Fed Pirate, ye scurvy peon! Now be runnin' along with yer little investigation. We've got villages to burn and booty to plunder."

Mexican cartels must have felt some gratitude for the guns... wonder who benefited from that...
