NAFTA Brings Misery across Border
Anyone who takes more than a superficial look at Americas "so called" war on drugs realizes that it serves the interests of our government to fight a losing battle.
In truth, we dont want all illegal drug supplies cut off. And we never did.
An eye-opening expose of the CIAs role in the illegal drug trade is the book "Compromised" by Terry Reed. This former Air Force veteran who served in Southeast Asia during the Vietnam era touches on charges that the "agency" was smuggling drugs back to the US in the body bags of our deceased servicemen.
Many years later, he was recruited to train Nicaraguan nationals as pilots who were slated to pick-up undocumented weapons shipments for the freedom-fighting Contra rebels and deliver planeloads full of contraband materiel to the United States. Reed claims he did not learn those were cocaine shipments until the operation was moved to a Mexican airport hangar that had been rented in his name.
When he tried to leave the agency and the operation behind, orders were issued to assassinate Reed and his family. Eventually, they made it back across the border and Reed had to face bogus drug possession charges. He was acquitted and began his crusade to tell America how high-ranking US officials including Oliver North were involved in the Iran/Contra affair and the black ops project that put Mena, Arkansas on the map.
When reports of CIA cocaine trafficking in southern California made it onto the pages of a local newspaper, Maxine Waters, a black Congresswoman from that state, was not one of the scoffers. She promised an investigation of charges that the government brought drugs onto the street and started its war on drugs simultaneously to destroy the fabric of the black family and lock many young black men away in prison for a long, long time.
Were still awaiting the impact of any such Congressional findings. And were not holding our breath.
So, were not totally surprised to learn that the results of NAFTA, another pet project of the international cabal which rules both major American political parties, have also gone largely unreported. In the six years since its passage, the North American Free Trade Agreement has created a massive trade deficit.
Many of us knew it would.
But NAFTA has also brought us instances of vegetables contaminated with human waste, an illegal harvest of Columbian Cocaine, Mexican marijuana and more plus nightly deliveries of hundreds of illegal aliens.
The drug traffickers are getting bolder in their smuggling tactics. They know the undermanned customs agents cant inspect every vehicle that crosses through customs. So they stash their loads in the backs of semi-trailer trucks, in mini-submarines, airplanes whatever form of transportation they can find.
A friend told me last night of his trip to the U.S./Mexican border at Tijuana. His host pointed to a building on the California side of the border and told an amazing story. Not too long ago, drug smugglers almost completed a tunnel to the basement of that building from the basement of another new building located in Mexico, one and one half miles away. Before the tunnel could be used, the culprits were caught and the building was seized.
But continuing the war on drugs creates another mindset favored by the New World Order crowd. It legitimizes government attempts to attack personal property rights guaranteed by the US Constitution. And it sanctions federal abuses that have already resulted in the deaths of a number of innocent American bystanders.
So, the government drug warlords in high places achieve two goals simultaneously eliminating the competition in the drug marketplace and convincing the befuddled "sheeple" that we should give up more of our liberties for the lure of a drug-free America.
Wake up, people. Thats never going to happen.
The powers that be have too much to lose.
