This is so weird. Last night I was responding to your other post, how government has always used black ops, etc.

Well, I had asked you a question in it regarding all the drug use in the 60's, and how one day there were NO drugs, and suddenly the whole place was full of drugs. It seemed to coincide with the Viet Nam war and the protesters. My question to you was, Do you think the feds intentionally loaded up the cities with drugs to interfere with the protesters and just plain shut everyone up about Nam. I realize now that drugs have become a big business for our CIA, just didn't think it went back that far...guess it did. DUH moment.
anyway,

I decided not to send it for various reasons, and then this morning, I log on and what do you have....my answer.

Are you freaking Psychic? LOL

PS..didn't know you played tennis.
I played ping pong when I was young..LOL

The US government's role in narcotics trafficking goes back even earlier than the establishment of the CIA. The Office of Naval Services sprang Lucky Luciano out of jail and allowed him to set up an heroin production in exchange for information regarding Italian spies and fascists.

As this video shows, the CIA was involved in the Golden Triangle production, which made it the world's active source of heroin, until the CIA shiften production to Afghanistan in conjuction with the operation against the Soviet Union. Afghanistan has reigned supreme ever since.

The same was done with cocaine in Latin America, and the CIA works in close cooperation with the leading producers and exporters of cocaine in the region, who are primarily military people in the Colombian military ties to Harvard educated and cocaine exporter Alvaro Uribe.

The whole thing has been going on for generations, but yet again it falls into the memory hole of the unknown.

Cheers dear and glad that I answered your question before you asked. ;-)

No, you're the best.
