6. The War on Drugs: An "Intellectual Fraud"
Before the Vietnam "War", the Golden Triangle was run by French
Intelligence and Corsican mobsters. After the French bailed out and
America moved in, the triangle was run by U.S. intelligence, with aid
from Sicilian mobsters. This narcotics network is well documented in
"The Politics of Heroin in S. E. Asia" by Alfred McCoy, "The Great
Heroin Coup" by Henrik Kruger and "Double-Cross" by Sam and Chuck
Giancana.
Vice-President George Bush, as Chairman of President Reagan's
cabinet-level working group and as Director of the National Narcotics
Interdiction System, was the highest U. S. governmental official
involved in the "war on drugs".
Frances Mullen, Jr., former head of the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA),
called Bush's efforts "an intellectual fraud" and "a liability rather
than an asset". Soon after these statements, Mullen resigned and the
resultant General Accounting Office (GAO) report was buried.
In July, 1985, the suppressed GAO paper reported that there were "no
benefits from the National Narcotics Border Interdiction System,
directed by George Bush. In fact, the overall effect was to encourage
supply...."
Monika Jensen-Stevenson, a "60 Minutes" producer, quit her job after
the CBS news program refused to air the story she had uncovered
relating to the covert drug trade. Her book, "Kiss The Boys Goodbye",
details how our intelligence community used the apparatus of the
POW/MIA governmental agencies as a cover for the trafficking of
opiates from the "Golden Triangle".
President Reagan appointed Reform Party founder and Texas billionaire
Ross Perot to the President's Advisory Council on Foreign
Intelligence. Reagan made Perot a special presidential investigator,
looking into America's POW and MIAs from the Vietnam "War".
Ross took the job to heart and spent considerable time and money in
pursuit of the quest. He was given special clearance and access. He
asked questions and interviewed everyone he could find.
From "Kiss The Boys Goodbye":
"Relations between Bush and Perot had gone downhill ever since the
Vice-President had asked Ross Perot how his POW/MIA investigations
were going.
'Well, George, I go in looking for prisoners,' said Perot, 'but I
spend all my time discovering the government has been moving drugs
around the world and is involved in illegal arms deals.... I can't get
at the prisoners because of the corruption among our own people.'
"This ended Perot's official access to the highly classified files as
a one-man presidential investigator. 'I have been instructed to cease
and desist,' he had informed the families of missing men early in
1987."
The wholesale importation of cocaine into the U.S. during
"Iran/Contra" is also well documented. George Bush, is known "to be in
the loop" with many of the players keeping in contact directly with
his office.
Also, there has been much speculation as to the use of the off-shore
rigs, pipelines and other assets of Zapata Offshore being used for
narcotic trans-shipments.
Narcotics such as cocaine and heroin cannot be manufactured without
the precursor chemicals. One of the largest makers of these precursor
chemicals is the Eli Lilly Company of Indianapolis, Indiana. The
Quayle family is a large stockholder, and George Bush has been on the
Board of Directors. Eli Lilly is also the company that first
synthesized LSD for the CIA.
