CIA Drug and Narcotic Trade and Trafficking in Europe PART 4
CIA
ran active drug rings in Europe immediately after the Second World War
and had covert operations in France, Sicily , Italy and Greece from
late 1940s to 1950s. CIA arms, money and disinformation helped
organised Corsican criminal syndicates in Marseilles to control labour
unions in France. The Corsican criminals in partnership with CIA gained
political influence and controlled the docks through which the mafia
trafficked in drugs like heroin. CIA and the mafia jointly opened heroin
laboratories in Marseilles in 951.
From 1980s to 1990s CIA
actively supported Moujahedeen rebels fighting the Soviet supported
government in Afghanistan in drug trafficking . It helped Gulbuddin
Hetmayar one of the leading drug lords and heroin refiner in
transporting the drugs. CIA planes carried his heroin to USA and Western
Europe.
CIA and its partners the crime syndicates maintain large
organisations capable of carrying out covert operations without fear of
detection. The two had developed very close natural bond. In 1950 CIA
used a legion of thugs to break a communist dock strike in Marseilles.
When CIA attempted to assassinate Fidel Castro in the 1960s he employed
American mafia syndicates
CIA operatives directly assissted
underworld narcotic traffickers in its fight against communism and the
left. CIA had allied itself with heroin merchants in Laos, opium dealers
in Burma, military drug lords in Thailand, Afghhanistan, and Panama,
Columbia cocaine cartels in Nicaragua and Costa Rica and guerilla opium
armies in Afghanistan.
In the mid 1940s to prevent left wing
influence in Western Europe CIA intervened covertly in the internal
politics of Italy, France, Greece and Sicily. After taking control of
Sicily CIA appointed a Sicilian mafia leader, Don Cologero Vizzini as
mayor of Villalba and Genco Russo as mayor of Mussumel as well as other
leaders as mayors of other Sicilian towns and cities. Eventuallly
Sicilian mafia had full control of politics in Sicily as well as the
narcotic trade.
In 1946 an Italian mafia boss Salvatore Lucky
Luciano was deported from New York to Italy. Luciano in partnership
with CIA built the most powerful criminal syndicate in USA to deal with
heroin trafficking. He was able to build an international narcotics
syndicate . He was able to move morphine from Middle East to Europe
where it was transformed into heroin and exported in large quantities to
US without suffering any arrest or seizure. The number of drug addicts
in US increased tremendously in the 1960s. Luciano and his friends
became multi millionaires .
CIA drug partners in France the
Corsican mafia allied strongly with the French Socialist Party and in
return enjoyed political protection from France intelligence service and
was allowed to operate its heroin laboratories for decades without
being disturbed.

Donald Trump is a mismatch
How could
Donald Trump be the President of the USA, the most powerful office in the world
when he does not have the training, qualifications and experience to be
one? I am saying this by using
Singapore’s perspective of what is right or good, of what would make a person
qualified for a job. This may be the
reason why the US is failing, with poorly trained presidents elected one after
another while Singapore is a glowing example of a successful state. The trick,
our PMs are well trained. Chok Tong was trained by LKY for at least 10 years.
Hsien was trained by LKY and Chok Tong for more than 10 years. Obama, Bush and now Trump have had zero
training to be the President.
Trump may be
over qualified if we apply the Singapore’s EP criteria on him. He is rich,
super rich, definitely has experience running a more than S$500m company. But
if we apply the job market criteria on him like we applied the same criteria on
our jobless PMETs, Trump just did not have the experience or right fit to do
the job. A mismatch, no training and experience to do the job of a president.
Oops, our EP
criteria assumed that one that has run a S$500m company is good enough to run a
little island like Singapore. If the criteria are extrapolated to a huge country
like the US, maybe it would demand a US$5b company. But of course Trump would
still qualify. Let me clarify a bit of confusion here.
There is a
difference in looking at the criteria and qualifications for a candidate’s
suitability for a job in the market and that for the office of the Presidency.
The criteria for the EP may be stringent, but its main factor is about managing
money. The criteria for a job could be more complicated though not about money.
That is the reason why so many of our PMETs are mismatched in the job market.
Trump too may be a mismatch in the job market if he applies for jobs that are
lower than his current job as CEO or Chairman of his business empire. He would
definitely be a mismatch for a smaller managerial job and would need retraining
to fit him into the job. Definitely needs training if he wants to be a taxi
driver or security guard.
What about
job training to fit a person into a job? Many fresh graduates would not fit
into any jobs offered as they don’t have any working experience to fall back
on. All will be mismatched as the universities did not train them for any
specific jobs unless they took professional courses. The organization must be
prepared to train them on the job, and that was what they were doing before,
like the civil services and also the private companies. The more I try to reason this mismatch thing,
the more confused I become. Come to
think of it, many people are mismatched in their jobs but are doing quite well.
Some exceedingly well and earning millions in their jobs, even becoming CEOs
and Chairmans.
Maybe this
mismatched Trump would do a good job or a better job than Obama.
What do you
think?
CIA Runs The World's Largest Drug And Narcotic Trade And Trafficking PART 3
CIA Runs The World's Largest Drug And Narcotic Trade And Trafficking PART 3
From 1950s to 1970s during USA involvement in Indochina, CIA controlled drug trafficking in the region and flew opium and heroin throughout Indochina. A heroin laboratory was built by CIA in northern Loas. From Loas CIA control 70% of the world's illicit opium and heroin trade . CIA was also the major supplier of raw materials to America's booming heroin market.
CIA also ran drug rings in Australia. From 1973 to 1980s CIA used its own bank the Nugan Hand Bank to finance its drug trafficking , money laundering and international arms dealings. The officers of the bank include a network of US generals, admirals,CIA men and CIA director, William Colby. The bank had branches in Saudi Arabia, Europe, South East Asia , South America and US.
In 1980s in Central America , CIA alliied with drug mafias and the Contras in running covert operations in trafficking cocaine. The then US president ,Ronald Reagan tolerated CIA involvement in drug trafficking because CIA and its drug partners were supporting the Contras to overthrow the leftist Sardinista government in Nicaragua.
In Costa Rica and Honduras there were many CIA supported networks involved in drug trafficking. A CIA operative John Hull had cocaine farms in Costa Rica, When John Hull was indicted by the Costa Rica government he was secretly flown out by CIA to Miami via Haiti with a DEA hired plane.
CIA also operated drug trafficking in Guatemala and worked closely with the drug cartels there . CIA backed transport companies provided planes to the contras for carrying cocaine to Florida, Texas, Louisiana and other locations including several US military bases. The planes were designated as "Contra Craft" in which shipments were not to be inspected . These traffickers were protected by CIA and DEA and other authorities officers.
In Haiti from the mid 1980s to 1990s CIA worked hand in glove with key Haiti military and political leaders in power to traffic drugs. In 1986 they organised a new Haitian organisation , the National Intelligence Service purportedly to fight the cocaine trade but actually having its officers engaged in the trafficking .
CIA had created America's biggest heroin and cocaine problem. The problem is deeply entrenched and the heroin plague is of America's own making.
Under the guise of national security, patriotism and protecting democracy normal boundaries of ethics and morality have been consistently transcended by CIA in its ideological war of defeating communism and it has always resorted to any means it considered necessary and allied itself with any person or group to achieve its ends.
The USA government has willingly made drug networks an essential ally in the covert expansion of American influence abroad. US diplomats and CIA agents have actively engaged in the production and transport of narcotics worldwide . The CIA's enormous role in the global drugs trade provides one of the murkier narratives of the Agency's dark history. The trail of corruption often leads to the highest levels of successive Washington administration right up to the front doors of many US presidents viz Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton and Obama.
CIA covert narcotic operations result in the heroin and cocaine supply to America's addict population increase by leaps and bounds especially from late 1940s to late 1970s.The trafficking in heroin and cocaine hit hard the inner city ghettos in US victimizing American citizens as badly as foreigners.

The isolation of the Americans is the new trend
The American obsession
to contain the rise of China in order to maintain world hegemony and domination
culminated in the pivot to Asia policy shift of Obama. The key to this move was
the decision to move a large portion of American forces and weapons spread
across the world to Asia with troops and weapons moving into Australia and
THAAD going into South Korea. America also went on to bolster defence
agreements and alliance with its long time allies announcing to the world that
relations with these allies have been elevated to strategic level, whatever
that means. It continues to raise tensions in the South China Sea by mounting
provocative 'freedom of navigation' infringement into Chinese islands,
violating the 12nm territorial limits. The show of might and threatening the
use of force by the Americans became the norm with Commander In Chief of Asia
Pacific Region telling the soldiers to prepare for war, that war can be a
reality at any moment.
The isolation of the Americans is trending and gaining momentum. The days of the Empire are numbered and its light is waning.
On the economic front,
the Americans floated the idea of a Transpacific Trade Pact to raise trade and
economic cooperation in the Asia Pacific Region but ominously left out China,
the largest economy in Asia and the world, from the Pact. And speaking in fork
tongue, the Americans arrogantly declared that all these had nothing to do with
the containment of China, still harbouring the colonial thinking that Asians
are plain stupid and did not know what is the American agenda and intent.
Ash Carter arrogantly
announced at the Shangri La Summit that China stood to be isolated by the
Americans and its allies. Such bravado and confidence were soon, within a
couple of months, to be turned around and to wipe the smugness and belligerent
sly smile off his face when Asean countries started to change sides. The peak
of American dominance and control of Asean countries was at the Shangri La
Summit when the Americans could count on at least 5 Asean countries to carry
its agenda to isolate China. The battle was aggressively fought in the Asean
Summit in Laos when Asean countries broke ranks and Asean unity was in
disarray.
Laos was the turning
point of the American fortune. Not only China's closest allies in Laos and
Cambodia defended China and held their grounds, the Philippines knocked the
Americans off the table by making a volte face and refused to be the point man
of the American attack against China. The Americans lost the biggest pawn in
its anti China coalition and the attack fizzled out for lack of a front
attacking guard.
Immediately following on
the heels of the Philippines, Malaysia has now announced that it would seek
closer relations with China and signing a long list of economic, military and
trade agreement. Quietly Thailand, another arch ally of the Americans, has
cosied up to China with many joint economic agreements as well.
Overnight, the three
king pins of the American strategy to attack and contain China broke ranks
leaving the Americans with only two staunch and hard core allies. Instead of
isolating China in Asean, there are now more China friendly nations in Asean
than pro American nations. The isolation of China in Asean has failed and
turning into an isolation of the Americans within Asean.
This isolation of the
Americans started much earlier in the wider context of Asia. China's two major
economic initiatives, the Asian Infrastructure and Investment Bank(AIIB) and
One Belt One Road Project have left the Americans high and dry. The Americans
would arm bending all their allies to stay away from the AIIB but failed
miserably. Nearly every one of the American allies have broke ranks with the
Americans and are members or founding members of the AIIB. The Americans found
themselves left out in the cold with only Japan sticking in close comfort. The
Americans have isolated themselves from Asia in the AIIB.
The same story was
repeated in the OBOR Projects when the word ''American'' is unheard off, not in
their vocabulary. The Chinese initiative involved hundreds of Asian and
European countries except for the Americans and Japan, two countries that
intentionally or otherwise, have been isolated from this Project.
Not only were the
Americans being isolated in Asia, the Americans have been counted out in Latin
American, banned from being a member of any Latin American association and
membership. Likewise in Africa, other than the war torn countries in the Middle
East and Northern Africa where the Americans muscled in with their military
might and presence, the rest of Africa is keeping the Americans at arms length.
Stay out Americans, you are not welcomed in Latin America and Africa.
Whether the Americans
understood this dynamic shift in the balance of power and influence, whether
they want to admit it or in a state of denial, Americans are no longer welcome
in all the peaceful regions of the world and would not be allowed to create
mischief and incite wars.
The isolation of the Americans is trending and gaining momentum. The days of the Empire are numbered and its light is waning.
CIA Runs The World's Largest Drug And Narcotic Trade And Trafficking PART 3
PART TWO CIA Runs The World's Largest Drug And Narcotic Trade And Trafficking
In the Middle East and Asia CIA drug and narcotic trade and trafficking is mainly opium and heroin. In the Americas it is largely cocaine, heroin and ice.The city of Mena in the state of Arkansas in US is an important city for CIA drug trafficking activities. In the 1980s CIA trafficked in cocaine involved senior government officers of the Bill Clinton administration who covered up investigations. CIA used the Mena Inter Mountain Municipal airport as a drop point in Mena , Arkansas. It used notorious pilots and Medellin Cartel drug smuggler Adler Berrimen Seal as its partners in operation.
In Mexico CIA collaborated with drug lords and traffickers and used its share of profits to finance the Nicaraguan Contra rebels to overthrow the leftist socialist Nicaragua's Sandinista Government. CIA sold drugs in USA mainly to African and Mexican Americans. In Honduras USA government protected Honduras drug lord lord Juan Matta Ballesteros , the owner of an airline SETCO in which Nicaraguan Contra rebels used to covertly transport military supplies and personnels in early 1980s. In Nicaragua too, CIA provided support for the Contras involving in drug trafficking . It channeled profits from drug trade to the Contra rebels.
In the 1970s to 1980s Panama was ruled by a Panama military strongman President General Manuel Noriega. Noriega was a highly CIA paid man and collaborator in drug trafficking , money laundering and arms for drugs dealings. CIA provides flights for the contras , protection for the contras and the pilots as well as safe havens for drug cartel officers and discreet banking facilities . US officials in the drug cartel Medellin Cartel include director William Webster and DEA officers. When Noriega arrested drug traffickers of other groups competing against CIA supported Medellin Cartel he was highly praised by Webster and DEA officers for thwarting drug trafficking. Noriega was asked by CIA to provide military assistance to contra rebels in Nicaragua in exchange for him to continue in drug trafficking activities which he had been doing since 1960s. When the DEA ( Department Enforcement Authority of US ) tried to indict Noriega in 1971 , the CIA prevented them from doing so. The director of CIA at that time was George H. W, Bush ( later president of USA ). who provided Noriega with hundreds of thousands of dollars per year for his drug trafficking and cooperation in Latin America. However, when a CIA pilot Eugene Hasenfus was shot down over Nicaragua by the Sandinistas, documents aboard the plane revealed many of CIA's activities in Latin America and the CIA's connection with Noriega became a public relations liability for the USA government, which allowed the DEA to indict him for drug trafficking after decades of conniving with him in his drug operations to proceed unchecked . Also in December 1989 CIA found Noriega was secretly providing intelligence and services to the Cubans and Sandinistas , US turned against Noriega and invaded Panama. Noriega was captured and taken to Miami where a Miami court sentenced him to 45 years in prison. However, his collaborators , CIA officers and personnel, chiefly George H. W. Bush were not indicted . In the meantime when Panama was under US occupation CIA had a field day in trafficking drugs which increased tremendously. Also in the 1980s President Ronald Reagan tolerated CIA involvement in drug trafficking in Central America because CIA and its drug partners were supporting the Contras to overthrow the leftist Sandinista government in Nicaragua.This is American justice and exceptionalism. Third world countries must beware, America via CIA will befriend you, make good use of you and dunk you when it no more serves their interest.
In Costa Rica and Honduras there were many CIA supported Contra networks involved in drug trafficking. CIA operative John Hull had cocaine farms in Costa Rica. When John Hull was indicted by the Costa Rica government he was secretly flown out by CIA to Miami via Haiti with a DEA hired plane.
CIA also operated drug trafficking in Guatemala and worked closely with the drug cartels there. CIA backed transport companies provided planes to the Contras for carrying cocaine to Florida, Texas, Louisiana and other locations including several US military bases designated as "Contra Craft" in which shipments were not to be inspected. These traffickers were protected by CIA and DEA and other authorities officers.
In 1993 it was disclosed that CIA working with a Colombia drug cartel smuggled tons of cocaine into USA and sold in the streets Hundreds of pounds of cocaine from Venezuela were also smuggled into USA under the watchful eyes of CIA. When the cartel's smuggling ring was broken, some traffickers were arrested but the CIA officer in charge of the smuggling and his supervisor were not indicted whereas the Venezuela collaborator General Ramon Guillen was indicted together with his civillian counterpart.
CIA and US top banking giants Wachovia a subsidiary of Wells Fargo Bank are the top players in global drug trade worth hundreds of billions of dollars a year. The head of DEA in 2004 , Judge Robert Bonner accused the CIA of being drug smugglers. CIA worked hand in hand with Venezuelan National Guard to smuggle cocaine into USA. A ton of cocaine at that time was worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
