http://www.pacificfreepress.com/news/1/3528-where-ways-intersect-the-profitable-world-of-spooks-and-narco-traffickers.html The Secret and (Very) Profitable World of Intelligence and Narcotrafficking by Tom Burghardt ########### Exactly "While the 9/11 Commission cited "intelligence failures" to "connect the dots" prior to the attacks, it is the contention of this writer that ongoing intelligence operations utilizing Afghan-Arab veterans and international narcotics syndicates, including al-Qaeda--in the Balkans, the Caucasus, the Middle East and South Asia--lie at the heart of 9/11's cover-up." by simuvac on Fri, 01/02/2009 Yup "In other words these cosy and highly profitable relationships built-up over decades, rather than unproven claims of an "inside job," allegations which all-too-frequently disappear Western intelligence agencies and their Islamist partners, were central to the 9/11 plot and subsequent U.S.-led "war on terror," a war of terror waged globally for resource extraction and geopolitical advantage over capitalist rivals." I never liked the "911 is an inside job" slogan. Of course, "these cosy and highly profitable relationships" are relationships which interface with US military and intelligence groups, at some (generally unknown, by the public) degree of separation from the actual narco-traffickers. So, you can still say that "911 is an inside job", in part, even with the author's perspective, though the strength of the assertion is diluted. I'm not aware of any serious discussion in the main stream or even alternative media about legalizing drugs as a method to combat terrorism. Given the US experience with Prohibition, one can only shake one's head with dismay at this "oversight". Maybe a cost/benefit analysis would still not indicate that legalization is a good thing, but the fact that this subject doesn't even get seriously discussed (AFAIK) in the media means that "the fix is in". US journalists could not be so stupid as to not realize that the subject is worthy of study. http://www.therealnews.com http://www.pdamerica.org http://www.change-congress.org by metamars on Fri, 01/02/2009 http://911blogger.com/node/18968 --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "ShadowGovernment" group.
