... , from official documentation published by Wikileaks, of one of the American campaigns to destabilise the regime of the late Hugo Chavez.27 When Chavez died there was a deal of discussion of the proposition that maybe the US had induced Chavez's cancer. Much derision was pored on the idea. Of course it is possible, not using chemicals or drugs, which were discussed, but electromagnetic radiation (EMR). (Was anyone monitoring EMR around Chavez?) The US embassy in Moscow was irradiated in the 1960s by the Soviet regime, resulting in the death of at least one member of the staff, and kicking-off the US military's intensive study of the military applications of ...

... The original 'Asian Pivot' Everything seemed brilliant until 1 October 1949 when the US regime had to accept the defeat of its client army under the warlord Chiang-Kai-Shek. All of a sudden, the US had 'lost China'. The so-called China Lobby – a coalition of banking, contraband (e .g . drugs) and feudal military interests, exemplified by former colonial governor of the Philippines, Douglas MacArthur – began a far-reaching campaign to mobilise the US as a whole to forcibly restore Euro-American control over China's economy.20 Whether relative sanity in the US or the extremism of the Lobby itself (in its day almost as powerful ...

The church and Russian culture, chiefly its literature; and the claim that Russia is now a leader of Christianity against the decadence of Western social liberalism (hence the anti-PC stance of the current regime).1 'Promotion of illegal drugs and of alcoholism, degenerative art, prostitution, propaganda of homosexuality and paedophilia, offences against religious and national feelings are those openly anti- national and anti-social manifestations of the perverse liberalism that should be banned unconditionally.

Well, we're not laughing now.

... (in and out of uniform) are seriously examined. Virtually all those responsible for fighting the war in Central Asia come from Special Operations/CIA backgrounds. That is what they have been trained to do. If we shift our attention for a moment to the economic basis of this region, it has been said that the war against drugs is also being fought there. However, this is counterfactual. Since the 1840s the region from Afghanistan to Indochina has been part of what was originally the British opium industry.

But it's worse (or better) than that. In 1982 the Agency actually went to the Attorney General of the United States to get his permission to ignore drug dealing. In effect the CIA, with government permission, gave cocaine dealers in Central and South America a 'get out of jail free' card: for a few thousand dollars of support for the contras they could fly their product in unhindered. And so the guns out and drugs back pattern began. Iran-Contra is frequently short ...
