Regan's dismissive characterization hardly did justice to the sales skills of North's Mideast contacts. 'It was a brutal, ugly ...

... is a matter of record that the CIA has also established contacts with those already known to the U.S. government as major narcotics traffickers. This was the case with Blandon's supplier, Norwin Meneses, a highly publicized Contra supporter who had been listed as a trafficker in DEA records since the 1970s. Officials in at least four law enforcement agencies have confirmed that Meneses was untouchable in this country in the era of Contra support. A key illustration of this was the so-called Frogman case in 1983, at that time the largest cocaine seizure ...

... of course, much to commend in the steps which Congress has taken to restrain the CIA and all forms of U.S. intervention in the internal affairs of other states. But the effect of these measures will be frustrated as long as new agencies- such as the DEA- are allowed to pick up the training and assassination tasks denied to CIA; as long as the U.S .-financed lobbies of client states (such as the China, Vietnam and South Korea lobbies) are used, with CIA benevolence, as a means of tilting ...

... Air Force, has 57,000 employees and a budget five times that of the CIA. It appears that one of its main roles is to monitor the clandestine activity of other US government agencies. Coleman's DIA job was to spy on the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), which operated out of a base in Cyprus. Coleman alleges that the DEA is supervising, and the DIA is manipulating, the drugs and arms trafficking which is a part of the currency of power in the Syrian-dominated part of Lebanon, as well as ...

... Repression Both inside and outside the U.S. narcotics enforcement is particularly susceptible to corruption. It is also inescapably a political matter, especially in those areas of covert intelligence and operations which, up to now, have been concerns of the CIA. It is undeniable that DEA has picked up at least one former CIA operation- that of training and equipping foreign police forces- after this was terminated by Congress in 1974. Congressional investigations had disclosed that the Office of Public Safety, responsible for those training programmes, had become involved in ...

... a back seat to a covert operation designed to discredit the Nicaraguan government- this at a time when the administration was seeking additional aid to the Contras. CBS Evening News (7-28-88)- the only major network to cover the proceedings- reported on the testimony of DEA agent Ernest Jacobsen, who said that White House officials undermined a DEA probe of the Colombian cocaine kingpins by blowing an undercover informant's cover when they leaked information in an attempt to link Nicaragua to the drug trade. The case against the cartel had been engineered by ...

Liddy's own original plans for Operation Diamond, after it moved from the cover of White House narcotics enforcement to the Committee to Re-elect the President, also included political kidnappings and "men who have worked successfully as street-fighting teams at the CIA".

... the time 'the CIA' means a kind of secret team to Stich: this is the Christic Institute thesis with bells on. At other times he seems to be suggesting that the entire agency has become infected with this. His evidence is chiefly the testimony of former DEA and CIA officials, contract personnel- or drug smugglers turned informants. Do you believe George Bush was a big wheel in a thirty year-old CIA operation to run drugs into America? Stitch does- at any rate he quotes people who make this claim. The ...
