LOS ANGELES–New evidence has surfaced linking the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency to the introduction of crack cocaine into Black neighborhoods with drug profits used to fund the CIA-backed Nicaraguan Contra army in the early 1980s. According to a series of groundbreaking reports by the San Jose Mercury News, for the better part of a decade, a San Francisco Bay Area drug ring, comprised of CIA and U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency agents and informants, sold tons of cocaine to the Crips and Bloods street gangs of Los Angeles.
Millions of dollars in drug profits were then funneled to the Fuerza Democratica Nicaraguense (Nicaraguan Democratic Force), the largest of several anti-Communists commonly called the Contras. The 5,000-man FDN was created in mid-1981 and run by both American and Nicaraguan CIA agents in its losing war against Nicaragua’s Sandinista government, the Cuban-supported socialists who had overthrown U.S.-backed dictator Anastasio Somoza in 1979.
The officials told The Associated Press the effort is aimed at stopping battles to control lucrative trafficking routes to the U.S. market.

Now yes.. But, I have heard before what you are talking about…
I have no idea.
I live in a lily-white area in the Pacific Northwest. These slobs are responsible for all the meth in this area. They live it, breathe it, rob people, commit burglaries stealing from businesses and homes; they’re just trash here. They have caused certain areas of this beautiful area to be amongst the worst in the state where crime is concerned. NONE OF THEM ARE BLACK. They are all white and trashy folks ready to steal from you or commit fraud in a heartbeat.
IT just depends on the area where certain races live and are more prominent. I just happen to be unlucky in the area where I am. If they would get out of here it would be a nice place to live, but as long as the trash is here it’s a major concern for the horrific turn of our economy.
None are Black here. Start naming the whites in your future question and stop bashing Black people. You guys are so readible for doing this constantly like it’s inbred in you and you must do so. No, just change.
Yes, they are just as responsible as any other drug users.
I’m not even gonna get into the bias agenda of a politician that would result in them standing by pieces of truth intertwined with deceit through omission (I would hope that would need no discussion)…..but the media has never cared about complete unbias truth. The relish in sensationalism, controversy, drama…..what you are reading has no credibility because the puppet reporters have failed to prove they are capable of providing all the facts without omitting relevant information and above lying and twisting the truth to satisfy the bias agenda of themselves, their bosses, their corporate sponsors, and/or the loudest public advocate. The conspiracy theory you’ve presented may have a wee tiny bit of truth…..but I’m sure the full truth wouldn’t be sensational enough for the mass media to waste their time with.
Don’t believe all that ya read sweetheart…….research anything and everything yourself, ESPECCIALLY when the source is a media outlet or a politician.
That is insane. Ghetto youth buy, sell, transport, manufacture, and use illegal drugs.
No one is to blame but themselves.
Nope. It’s my fault. I force each and every one of them to use and peddle crack cocaine daily. I am the drug kingpin of the entire United States supply system.
Damn I’m good.
Well, well, well…. finally… someone prints the truth.
I have heard this from way back about the CIA and DEA, but who knows if its true. Anyone who does really know are probably already dead from a bizarre accident. But as far as your question about ghetto youth. No. Did you know that the average street level drug dealer makes less than minimum wage selling drugs on the street? There are thousands, even millions, of street level drug dealers. But the majority of the drugs are supplied by a just a few hundred people across the US. These are the ones who make the money off of it. The US government understands it too. That is why the enforcement of drug laws is done on a street level with actually very few large suppliers ever being arrested.
First off who is Ghetto youth? Just because you don’t live in a great community doesn’t mean you are responsible for all teh drugs in your area.
Most of you missed the point. Youth do not have airplanes and boats to transport drugs from Mexico to the US. It has been proven that there was a conspiracy to infuse the black community with drugs and to sell them wholesale to gangs who used the money to buy weapons. Recently, Mexico temporarily removed all 284 of its top federal police officers from their jobs and is forcing them to undergo psychological reviews to prove they will not be corrupted in the fight against drug trafficking, the government said Monday. The Yahoo Questioner was not saying that gang members were not selling drugs but they did not start or escalate the problem. Once it spread to white youth, it became a problem.At this point, the inner city gangs have to be stopped and our communities rebuilt. Our children’s lives are at stake. Drugs crossing the border can be stopped. By the way, you race hater’s can keep your comments to yourself. Your hatred blinds you to the truth.
