The “Zapruder Film” of the “War on Drugs”

Most people have already heard something about the assassination of Barry Seal, gunned down in cold blood in Baton Rouge Louisiana in 1986, supposedly for ratting out the head of the Medellin Cartel, Pablo Escobar.

 

But that’s not what happened. And it’s one place where the big lies of the war on drugs lie exposed in a way that’s understandable to almost anyone.

If Americans knew who really ordered Seal’s murder, and why, it could stop the endless war on drugs in its tracks. So here it is, from an enterprising local TV news anchor on the night after Barry Seal’s assassination.

  1. I wanted to leave a comment about your book “Welcome to Terrorland”. It was a great read. I loved the last page, the heroin with Bin Laden stamped on it. I didn’t know Bin Laden was involved in the drug trade.

    You said that Atta prayed 3 times a day. Muslims pray 5 times a day but religious Jews pray 3 times. Atta’s girlfriend asked what was his necklace and he said it was Palestine. While Palestine has many meanings, it is another way to refer to Israel. The book “Solving 9-11” by Christopher Lee Bollyn makes a strong argument that the terrorists were from Isreal and that they wanted to make Arabs look like the enemy.

  2. For anyone who is still having trouble following the video, that Mr, Hopsicker posted above, I suggest that you do yourself a big favor and purchase a copy of “Barry and the Boys.” The difference between the movie, Mena, and the book, “Barry and the Boys” is that the book is a work of NON-FICTION, while the movie promises to be a romantic whitewash and a flight of melodramatic fancy.
    The real “Drug Super-Kingpin” during Barry Seal’s Mena Airport career, as well as being Seal’s controller, was Vice President, at the time, and former CIA Director George Herbert Walker Bush. It was he who was ultimately responsible for all four drug-related assassinations that took place the same night that he had Barry Seal snuffed.
    American Drug Lords have a long and sordid history that stretches back well-over two hundred years. Just read John L. Potash’s well-documented book, “Drugs as Weapons Against Us.” This fine work should open your eyes to the fact that these very dangerous illicit Drugs ‘R’ U.S.!
    The sale of these commodities, which are sold in U.S. dollars, helps to stabilize the dollar as the world’s reserve currency. This is required in order to keep the dollar-dominated global monetary system, which is a classic Chuck Ponzi scheme, afloat. The problem is that, even with the hundreds of billions of dollars that are laundered from illicit drug sales each year, the financial institutions can’t fill a black-hole of debt fast enough with the Fed’s worthless fiat money. Can you hear the debt-bomb ticking – $200 trillion world wide (excluding derivatives) and steadily approaching critical mass? The Federal Reserve sure can.

  3. sigh. look at it this way. you’re on the best baseball team on earth.
    the second best team is getting lots of help on the side from powerful people in the league office.
    then on the same day four of your starters are murdered.
    and the league office, and every sportwriter in the country, blames…your manager?
    if that scenario doesn’t make sense to you, ask yourself what would.
