There is not a doubt in my mind that this is true.

See post 8...

No better way to control a ‘ free’ population than to drug the natives into complacency and then import millions of foreigners who care nothing about our freedom in the first place.

There are two ways to conquer a nation, the other one is just blow them to hell.

King of like sheep being slaughtered, they know what’s happening but they can’t do anything about it.

Catherine Austin Fitts, who was Assistant Secretary of HUD under Jack Kemp in the George H.W. Bush administration, has written extensively on the kleptocratic narco-state, including government involvement in the drug trade and spinoff revenue opportunities like for-profit prisons. For example, she published a series of stories online at http://dunwalke.com/contents.htm.

As former CIA Director William Colby was quoted, “The Latin American drug cartels have stretched their tentacles much deeper into our lives than most people believe. It’s possible they are calling the shots at all levels of government.”

There is also speculation US military action in Afghanistan is directly related to CIA’s battle for control of the heroin traffic.

Research the opium crop in A-stan and compare the acreage planted from the time the Taliban were in charge to now. You'll be amazed.

They don't even have to drug us. The State uses the extra power they acquire from the War on Drugs to control all of us -- whether we use drugs or not. They give free rein to chaos so we will welcome a police state.

That means one way in America. Short of nuclear annihilation (OK, EMP), we are unconquerable.

I also don’t believe in drugs. For years I paid my people extra so they wouldn’t do that kind of business. ... I want to control it as a business, to keep it respectable. I don’t want it near schools! I don’t want it sold to children! That’s an infamia. In my city, we would keep the traffic in the dark people, the coloreds. They’re animals anyway, so let them lose their souls.

It would explain why the cocaine besotted congress has kept the borders open.

Rheinhard Gehlen? It has been quite a while since I heard that name.

Have a book about him in my library somewhere.

Yes, there have been questionable employees of the CIA since before it existed. Back in Wild Bill Donavan’s days with the OSS. Never quite understood how he could embrace hard leftists.

As far as the Mena AR connection. I know some people in Mena. Have read a great deal about that mess. Am a believer in Terry Reed’s Book: Compromised. But not some of the wild accusations mentioned on the cover, but not explained inside the book. Real people: Dan Lasiter, Susan McDougal, Seth Ward, Barry Seal, Felix Rodriquez. Now, those were some interesting times.

The government covers many people, and many departments. The government as a whole? No. Obama regime? Maybe. I can’t rule it out during other times either.

Ever hear of a guy named Mike Ruppert? On November 15, 1996, there was a town meeting in Los Angeles on allegations of CIA involvement in drug trafficking. Former Los Angeles Police Narcotics Detective Mike Ruppert seized the opportunity to confront then CIA Director John Deutch and blew the lid off the whole situation. That’s one.

Of course it’s true. It’s also the reason for the Afghan war. No doubt in my mind. Why do you think Napoleon, the British, Hitler, the Soviets and now us have had an interest in controlling Afghanistan of all places? Heroin.

That’s why I always laugh when people yell at me for disliking Bush and Cheney, oh, how dare you they’re such swell guys. Yeah, okay. Keep telling yourself that if it makes you sleep better at night.

Since Reagan, the country has had P.O.S. on either side. Two sides of the same coin since him. Bad people, doing bad things.

“That’s why I always laugh when people yell at me for disliking Bush and Cheney, oh, how dare you they’re such swell guys. Yeah, okay. Keep telling yourself that if it makes you sleep better at night.”

I understand...I made that point on an earlier thread.

People, even Freepers, simply refuse to look at the facts and records of people once they’ve ‘fallen’ for their beloved candidates. It’s ALL about emotion. They’ll do anything but admit they were mistaken in picking the jerk in the first place! My GAWD, they’re not having a personal relationship with these politicians but you’d never know it. The emotion has to go or we are sunk!

Dick Cheney’s son in law was buried deep in the Justice Dept, partly responsible for Ramos/Compean prosecution and all kinds of nefarious junk. Cheney’s domestic policy advisor Cesar Conda helped destroy prop 187 in Calif and is an amnesty pusher who went to work for Soros.

All these politicians want is power and they don’t care who they use to get it! Democrats use blacks, gays, etc. Repubicans use the Christian right, 2nd amendment folks, etc.

The point is WE ARE ALL BEING USED, but damn at least throw out some of the users once in a while! Or at least admit who they are!

Does anyone seriously believe that our government was facilitating the shipment of untraced heavy weapons to Mexican drug cartels? Anyone?
