... certain State agencies, particularly the police, conceive of order in an individually personal and subjective way. Disorder is that which hampers or fails to facilitate the advancing philosophy or the smooth running of a high technology productive process. This includes: diverse cultures; diverse expressions of sexuality; styles of dress and appearance; life style attributes such as drug-taking or nomadic travelling; personally held philosophies and political positions; and even more conservative views such as an insistence on the use of cash rather than cheques or credit (10). All of these things militate against order in the strictest sense of the word because while some of them express individuality or extreme states of feeling, ...

... United States's narcotic foreign policy 1930-62 Douglas Clark Kinder and William D. Walter in Journal of American History, March 1986 This makes an interesting companion piece to pp2/3 of the P.D . Scott essay in Lobster 12 . Anslinger was the primary originator of the basic US foreign policy move of accusing your enemies of running drugs into the otherwise innocent bodies of the US citizenry (China, Cuba, Nicaragua), while allowing your political allies (KMT, anti-Castro Cubans, Contras) to fund-raise by dope-dealing. This essay focuses on Anslinger as manipulator of Congress, media and the American public, rather than the content of his ...

... since the late 19th century, but only just includes the IRA, for example. (To his credit, the editor does not mention the IRA in his essay.) Yet elsewhere Paul Johnson does include the IRA (and, incidentally, offers one of the real misinformation gems of the volume: "the IRA finances itself through the drug trade"). Other gems, at random: Moshe Arens (ex Israeli defence minister) "By June 1982 there were about 15,500 armed PLO terrorists in Lebanon." (Presumably, on the definition of 'terrorism' given above, 15,500 people engaged in "the deliberate and systematic murder" etc. Which ...

... -Nazi party. By the 1970s however, the fascist NAP and its Grey Wolves 'youth wing' were operating 'legally' and helping the state to smash the Turkish left. By 1977 the NAP was in the coalition government and controlled the Education Ministry (in order to terrorise students) and the Customs Ministry (which facilitated the flow of drugs, guns and terrorist cadre in and out of Turkey.) Then in September 1980 the military took over again and the Wolves were banned. They'd served their purpose. Some were even indicted for some of the thousands of murders committed during the terror. But the challenge to the Russian Empire by Solidarity in Poland gave a measure of ...

... most important patron in Latin America of the ex-Nazi Spinne network. (81) U.S . opposition to networks of ex-Nazis like Barbie and Ricord appeared to be unrelenting in the period of 1970-72, when Nixon, with important help from the CIA, pressured and eventually destroyed the Ricord network of French Corsican drug traffickers in Latin America. But even the Ricord crackdown, so often recounted by Customs and BNDD flacks as proof of U.S . determination and success in the war against drugs, has been seen in other countries as an effort to gain control over the drug traffic, not to eliminate it. Even the respectable French newspaper Le ...

... the narcotics business. (50) A memo of late May 1972, drafted by Hunt's superior in narcotic matters, Egil Krogh, reports on what is apparently President Nixon's authorisation for the Conein assassination squad, with the staggering budget of $100 million in non-accountable funds: According to Krogh's detailed 'Outline of Discussion with the President on Drugs', the President agreed to 'forceful action in [stopping] International trafficking of heroin in the host country'. Specifically the memorandum of the meeting noted, 'it is anticipated that a material reduction in the supply of heroin to the U.S . can be accomplished through a $100 million (over three years) fund which ...

Drugs and Parafascism: Orlando Bosch and Christian David All this has a very direct bearing on the career of Orlando Bosch, who boasts of having collaborated with the AAA in the murder of two Cuban diplomats as late as August 1976. (66) It is quite possible that this collaboration was facilitated through the international narcotics traffic, since both Lopez Rega and Bosch, along with other high-level security figures in Latin America, have been accused of financing their anti-Communist activities in ...

World Parafascism, Drugs and Crime In general, the fall of Nixon and the eventual election of Carter cut off the CIA subsidies to the Right, which does much to explain the recent financing of both West European fascists and Chile's Cuban proteges by criminal activities, including narcotics.
