Global TV ran a film last week about the stupidity of the war on drugs. It is about time. I was surprised, it was very honest and is the kind of thing that media usually keeps from us.
It was a lot like the book by an ex-narc Michael Levine [DEA] called "Big White Lies" , who coined the term "Cocaine Importing Agency" for the CIA, and tells of how the CIA protects drug dealers and helps import the hard drugs into America. It was backed up in this film. Its true, wake up!!
The film had ex-narcs on who said the CIA was importing most of the cocaine and heroin into the USA, for the benefit of various military and personal accounts, to wages illegal wars and to create a few millionaires. The CIA protects growers and dealers in south america, transports, and then sells the drugs to Americans.
The drugs that are shown on the news - those big busts by the police - are just 'the competition' who tried to go it without the CIA and got caught.When you are the law, you own the prohibited market.Prohibition helps them keep this monopoly.
So, with the hard drug epidemic being mostly fueled by the efforts of government agencies, do you still believe that prohibition is to protect our youth from drugs? Or, do you now see that this is a good business arrangement?
The movie calls for the end to prohibition, and every one of the experts says it is ridiculous to think that if drugs were legal and sold openly that everyone would become a hard drug addict. Thats the point of prohibition - to stop that from happening - but addiction to hard drugs happens to only a small portion of our population who are basically self-medicating. That proportion of addicts would stay about the same - maybe even drop a bit - if all drugs were declared legal to trade posess and produce. Also, without prohibition, most addicts can live a pretty normal life - I know of people with a 15 year long addiction to morphine who keep in good physical shape and help others and are responsible people, their health is better than average [they are prescribed their morphine, but otherwise would have to commit crime to get it, it is that simple].
Drugs are not killing us, prohibition and the war on drugs are killing us.
So WOW - mainstream media is showing us that the war on drugs is basically an organised crime, complete with testimony from the ex-narcs who saw it happening. Oddly - it seems that nobody noticed this film, shown in prime time TV last week.
I was waiting to see if this issue would be posted on here, but NADA??
