Terrorism and the War on Drugs
In May 2001 Colin Powell gives 43 million dollars to the Taliban in an effort to fight "the war on drugs". four months later, 4,000 people are killed from a terrorist attack in New York and DC instigated by a group directly linked, supported, and protected by the Taliban. aside from "drugs", The Taliban also forbids flying kites, human rights for women, dancing, music, film, and anything else that doesn't fit into their narrow reality tunnel and religious views. the same can be said of the christian right in the U.S... After the terrorist attacks, two leading representatives of this cult, Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson, make a statement blaming homosexuals, "abortionists", the ACLU, and the secular government, as having caused this atrocity.
Drug War: Covert Money, Power & Policy by Dan Russell, 2000
This new book is comprehensive and detailed. It is the best expose of the real motives behind the Drug War.
o The goal of the prohibitionist leaders is to maximize their profits and power.
o Their strategy is to create a black market in drugs and profit from it.
o The main drug traffickers are the top government officials in Washington D.C.
o The WOD is entirely a deliberate, synthetic problem invented strategically by the U.S. government.
o The biggest popularizer of recreational drug use is the U.S. government.
o Drug squads are meant to distribute drugs and popularize drug use, not to gather drugs and make drug use unpopular.
o Government propaganda is meant to popularize, not reduce, drug use.
o D.A.R.E.'s real meaning and intention is to promote drug use -- to train and coax kids into using drugs.
o The prohibitionist leaders are succeeding at their actual goals.
o The prohibitionist leaders know drugs are not particularly harmful and they enjoy using illicit drugs themselves.
o Drug squads exist to make money by legally stealing wealth from the citizens they theoretically protect.
o The prohibitionist leaders are intelligent con-men, not misguided, mistaken people.
o The strategy of the Nazis and prohibitionists for gathering power to themselves is essentially identical and is also related to the persecution-for-profit strategies of the Church and witch hunters.
o If drug use stopped today, the prohibitionist leaders would hasten to reinstate the drug problem.
o Prohibition is the most profitable industry.
o The prohibitionist leaders read everything that the drug-law reformers read and know more than the reformers about the nature of drug use and the state of the WOD.
