CIA operations follow the same recurring script. First, American business interests abroad are threatened by a popular
or democratically elected leader. The people support their leader because he intends to conduct land reform, strengthen unions,
redistribute wealth, nationalize foreign-owned industry, and regulate business to protect workers, consumers and the environment.
So, on behalf of American business, and often with their help, the CIA mobilizes the opposition. First it identifies right-wing
groups within the country (usually the military), and offers them a deal: "We'll put you in power if you maintain a favorable
business climate for us." The Agency then hires, trains and works with them to overthrow the existing government (usually
a democracy). It uses every trick in the book: propaganda, stuffed ballot boxes, purchased elections, extortion, blackmail,
sexual intrigue, false stories about opponents in the local media, infiltration and disruption of opposing political parties,
kidnapping, beating, torture, intimidation, economic sabotage, death squads and even assassination.
These efforts culminate in a military coup, which installs a right-wing dictator. The CIA trains the dictator's security
apparatus to crack down on the traditional enemies of big business, using interrogation, torture and murder. The victims are
said to be "communists" [or these days "terrorists"] but almost always they are just peasants, liberals, moderates, labor
union leaders, political opponents and advocates of free speech and democracy. Widespread human rights abuses follow.

The CIA's Drug-Trafficking Activities
The CIA's operational directorate, in other words that's their covert operations, para-military, dirty tricks
— call it whatever you want — has for at least 40 years that we can document paid for a significant amount of
its work through the sales of heroin and cocaine. — Guerrilla News Network's Interview with Christopher Simpson
ClA-supported Mujahedeen rebels [who in 2001 were part of the "Northern Alliance" fighting the Taleban which became
the core of the new Afghani government following the U.S. attack on Afghanistan in late 2001] engaged heavily in drug trafficking
while fighting against the Soviet-supported government and its plans to reform the very backward Afghan society. The Agency's
principal client was Gulbuddin Hekmatyar, one of the leading druglords and a leading heroin refiner. CIA-supplied trucks and
mules, which had carried arms into Afghanistan, were used to transport opium to laboratories along the Afghan/Pakistan border.
The output provided up to one half of the heroin used annually in the United States and three-quarters of that used in Western
Europe. U.S. officials admitted in 1990 that they had failed to investigate or take action against the drug operation because
of a desire not to offend their Pakistani and Afghan allies. — The Real Drug Lords
The U.S. Central Intelligence Agency, as is by now well-known by anyone who has cared to be informed, has long been deeply
involved in the international trafficking of the addictive drugs heroin and (since the early 1980s, if not earlier) cocaine,
the enormous profits from which have financed, and continue to finance, both U.S. covert operations and the U.S. military
(via payments to Pentagon contractors).
The main reason why this is not more widely known is that the main players in the U.S. media have always worked to protect
the Agency and to keep the American public in the dark as to the nature of its activities (as documented in great detail in
Carl Bernstein's article in the October 20, 1977, issue of Rolling Stone: "The CIA and the Media: How America's Most Powerful
News Media Worked Hand in Glove with the Central Intelligence Agency and Why the Church Committee Covered It Up"). The information
you will find on this web page, and the web pages it links to, is not considered by the editors of the New York Times and
other mainstream U.S. "news" media as proper for the public to know.
By the end of the 1980's it was calculated that the illegal use of drugs in the United States now netted its controllers
over $110 billion a year. — Modern Times, p.782.
Covert government by defense contractor means corrupt wars of conquest, government by dope dealer. When the world's
traditional inebriative herbs become illegal commodities, they become worth as much as precious metal, precious metal that
can be farmed. ... Illegal drugs, solely because of the artificial value given them by Prohibition, have become the
basis of military power anywhere they can be grown and delivered in quantity. ... To this day American defense contractors
are the biggest drug-money launderers in the world.— Drug War: Covert Money, Power and Policy, p.318.
Most of this page concerns the CIA's involvement in drug trafficking, but we should first note that this is only one part
of its activities, the means by which it finances its operations in addition to the billions of dollars it gets from U.S.
taxpayers courtesy of the U.S. federal government (the exact amount, of course, being kept secret from U.S. taxpayers). In
addition to being the principal source of U.S. propaganda for domestic and foreign consumption the CIA is the covert operations
division of the U.S. goverment and as such has engaged in many terrorist activities. In fact the CIA is a terrorist organization, funded by the profits of international drug smuggling.
Kennedy's intended change in Vietnam policy — his plan to unilaterally withdraw from the imbroglio —
infuriated not only the CIA but elements in the Pentagon and their allies in the military-industrial-complex. By this time,
of course, the Lansky Syndicate had already set-up international heroin running from Southeast Asia through the CIA-linked
Corsican Mafia in the Mediterranean. The joint Lansky-CIA operations in the international drug racket were a lucrative venture
that thrived as a consequence of deep U.S. involvement in Southeast Asia as a cover for drug smuggling activities. —
Michael Collins Piper, The Final Judgment, quoted at Vietnam, the CIA's Illegal Drug Trafficking, and JFK's Assassination
From the days of the Vietnam War the CIA has been at the forefront of heroin trafficking. When the Reagan administration
needed to finance its war against Nicaragua the CIA applied what it had learned in Vietnam to importing vast quantities of
cocaine (sometimes 20 tons at a time) from Latin America, selling it to the Mafia, and using the profits to finance its
"covert activities", activities so contrary to America's professed values that they must be concealed at all costs from the
American people.
I ask Dennis [Dayle, former head of DEA's Centac], "If the following statement were made to American citizens
would you agree with it? 'Enormously powerful criminal organizations are controlling many countries, and to a certain degree
controlling the world, and controlling our lives. Your own [U.S.] government to some extent supports them, and is concealing
this fact from you.'"
"I know that to be true. That is not conjecture. Experience, over the better part of my adult life, tells
me that that is so. And there is a great deal of persuasive evidence. But I also believe that what you just said can be dealt
with very effectively. You can contain drug trafficking by the immobilization of the few cartels who truly control it. There
must be conscious decisions, based on fact rather than propaganda, at the grass-roots level of the global community, that
the global drug-trafficking situation should not be tolerated." — The Underground Empire, p.1161.
Because (some) drugs are illegal, there are huge profits to be made in supplying them to those who want or need them. Legalization
would eliminate the enormous profits now being made and would provide a social context in which education concerning the use
of drugs was not only respectable but also a social obligation. In the meantime the "War on Drugs" works only to keep (some) drugs illegal and to maintain the profits of the traffickers.
Much information about the CIA is already available (see Audiotapes, Videos, CD-ROMs, Books and Articles), but the mainstream media has deliberately ignored this information, and as others have said, if it's not on TV then for
many Americans it isn't real. But this is real, and it affects everyone.
The CIA, Cocaine Smuggling at Mena and the Train Deaths
- Sally Denton and Roger Morris:
- THE CRIMES OF MENA
Of this Michael Rivero has written:
This is the article which had been scheduled to appear in the Washington Post. After having cleared the legal
department for all possible questions of inaccurate statements, the article was scheduled for publication when, just as the
presses were set to roll, Washington Post Managing Editor Bob Kaiser (Like George Bush, a member of the infamous Skull &
Bones Fraternity) killed the article without explanation. According to the sidebar which appeared with the Penthouse Magazine version of this story, Bob Kaiser refused to even meet with Sally Denton and Roger
Morris, hiding in his office while his secretary made excuses.
Mena, Arkansas, was (and perhaps still is) one of the major centers for the smuggling of cocaine and heroin into America.
This article is about the late Barry Seal, a CIA agent who is said to have smuggled between $3 billion and $5 billion worth
of drugs into the U.S. It is based in part upon an extensive archive of Seal's personal records. Denton and Morris write:
If the Seal documents show anything, an attentive reader might conclude, it is that ominous implication of some
official sanction. Over the entire episode looms the unmistakable shape of government collaboration in vast drug trafficking
and gunrunning, and in a decade-long cover-up of criminality.
 The "Train Deaths"
August 23, 1987, in a rural community just south of Little Rock, police officers murdered two teenage boys [Kevin Ives
and Don Henry] because they witnessed a police-protected drug drop. The drop was part of a drug smuggling operation based
at a small airport in Mena, Arkansas. ... There were CIA operatives who took advantage of the protection their positions gave
them, and they participated in saturating our country with drugs. Kevin and Don were victims of this atrocious crime, and
it is up to us to expose those responsible.

- Ace R. Hayes: New York Mob at Mena
America is losing its mind. The two-party system has been utterly homogenized by corrupt money. The mob and Mossad
have cut a deal with Wall Street and the CIA to run the world as a global plantation for the benefit of the global plutocracy.
Only impoverished presses like the PFP, some talk radio and the Internet are yet outside the hegemonic power of transnational
corporate fascism. However, when the Imperial pigs succeed in driving 80 percent of the world into the new serfdom, they will
probably wish they had not let their greed glands run wild. When the middle class discovers that they are part of the impoverished
and imprisoned rather than the privileged, they will lead the "underclass" in a revolution against the plutocracy and its
gun thugs. Failure to deal with the Mena cesspool will continue to erode the credibility of a terminally corrupt governing
class.
- Ace R. Hayes: CIA Drug-Money Laundering
... knowledge of drug-running through Mena, Arkansas has been known to the FBI and the head of the Arkansas State
Police since January 1988 ... The Arkansas Attorney General and Special Prosecutor Walsh have known of this since June 1991

Mind Control and the CIA's Use of LSD
The CIA's interest in drugs goes beyond heroin and cocaine. They have always been very interested in LSD and other drugs
for use in interrogation and brainwashing.
- G. J. Krupey: The High and the Mighty: JFK, MPM, LSD and the CIA
Could it have been possible that some faction of CIA agents, their typical cold war super-patriot minds blown
by acid, indeed flooded the country with LSD, not as part of some plot to forestall change or stifle rebellion, but to encourage
it, especially in the aftermath of Kennedy's assassination by their dark counterparts within the agency?
This shows part of the front page of The Washington Post, 1975-06-11. The report is the Rockefeller Commission investigation
into the CIA's domestic activities, in which it was revealed that a U.S. Army scientist had died a week after having been
given LSD. This is the "Suicide Revealed". The "suicide" was actually a murder. For further details see The Frank Olson Murder
THE OLSON FILE: A secret that could destroy the CIA
Gordon Thomas has his own idea of what it [the vital clue to the murder of CIA researcher Dr Frank Olson in 1953]
was. "The CIA was using German SS prisoners and Norwegian Quislings [collaborators] taken from jails and detention centres
as guinea pigs to test Cameron's theories about mind control. The Agency preferred to conduct such clinical trials outside
the United States because sometimes they were terminal — the human guinea pig ended up dead. ... I believe
that he [Olson] wanted out." ...
The CIA has always maintained as a matter of historical record that it has never murdered an American citizen on American
soil. If ... this turns out to be a lie, it could well be the beginning of the end of the Agency.
Ralph McGehee and CIABASERalph McGehee was a CIA agent for 25 years, active mainly in South-East Asia,
and received a career achievement medal upon retirement. Initially a gung-ho anti-communist crusader, McGehee's experiences
in Vietnam, where he witnessed American bombing and napalming of villages, and of the men, women and children who lived in
them, led him to examine closely what the CIA was really all about. He concluded that:
The CIA is not now nor has it ever been a central intelligence agency. It is the covert action arm of the President's
foreign policy advisers. In that capacity it overthrows or supports foreign governments while reporting "intelligence" justifying
those activities. It shapes its intelligence, even in such critical areas as Soviet nuclear weapons capability, to support
presidential policy. Disinformation is a large part of its covert action responsibility, and the American people are the primary
target of its lies.
After a long legal battle with the CIA censors Ralph McGehee published in 1983 his account of the CIA in his book Deadly Deceits (from which the paragraph above is quoted). A synopsis of this book is atRalph McGehee, The CIA and Deadly Deceits (specifically here).
As part of his efforts to demonstrate that nothing in his book contravened the secrecy agreement that he signed when he
joined the CIA McGehee set up his CIABASE
... a computer data base on the Central Intelligence Agency that provides a vital, easy-to-use historical resource
for policy makers, academicians, journalists, and students.
 The CIA has officially acknowledged that McGehee's CIABASE activities were legal and constituted no threat to "national security"
(click on the image at right). Yet he has recently been harassed both by the CIA and by the FBI, involving bodily injury,
and his CIABASE website was shut down.
Here is a statement from Ralph McGehee (given to Wade Frazier and copied from his website):
I moved to Florida in July 2000. Immediately the harassment I experienced in Herndon transferred here. A major
difference is that the FBI here openly advises I am a threat to National Security — because, I assume, I tell unclassified
truths to the American people.
In 1990 the CIA officially advised me in writing that I may use any information in the public domain — making the
FBI's actions against me false if not illegal as I have never and will never expose secret persons or information.
Harassment here has grown to such a degree that I fear staged incidents to arrest me for something — anything.
I base my actions on what is in the best interests of the United States. This may be difficult to believe given my negative
commentary, but I participated in and watched CIA operations in Vietnam and other countries nearly destroy the US/us.
The CIA said I was an analyst with few peers and awarded me its Career Intelligence Medal. I use this ability and those
experiences to inform about the CIA's many opportunities and deficiencies.
Anyone wishing to know more may find details via a Google search under my name.

- Mike Lehman:The 1954 CIA Coup in Guatemala
Information warfare, the manipulation of public opinion, in particular US public opinion, is the final determinant
of the success of [a CIA] operation. In this sense, it can be said that the US public is one of the main targets of the CIA
in any covert action. This level of organizational hubris, combined with the cloak of secrecy, render the CIA as a threat
to the continuation of our democratic system.
- Walter Pincus: CIA Had Hit List of 58 Guatemalans
In 1953, the CIA included plans for 'K' groups, or assassin teams, to work with sabotage groups, and rebels began
training assassins. CIA headquarters in Washington sent 20 silencers for .22-caliber rifle to the rebel killers training in
Honduras, said a Jan. 11, 1954, cable. In the spring of 1954, CIA officers made official requests to the State Department
to implement assassinations. ... Three weeks before President Arbenz resigned, a CIA field officer met with officials in Washington
to submit the political assassination plan in person.

The CIA's web site has been through several versions. Here's an early version (with links to their site removed). At that time (1996-09-19) their website was broken into by some Swedish hackers, who
replaced the CIA's home page by this (much more interesting) version:
Welcome to the Central Stupidity Agency
The CIA then cleaned up their act, but the next version had this on their home page:
You are entering an Official United States Government System, which may be used only for authorized purposes.
Unauthorized modification of any information stored on this system may result in criminal prosecution. The Government may
monitor and audit the usage of this system, and all persons are hereby notified that use of this system constitutes consent
to such monitoring and auditing.
Sounds like the CIA alright. We could hardly expect otherwise from a bunch of control freaks. They've now moved this notice
to a lower-level page.

concludes:
Given the power granted to the office of the presidency and the unaccountability of the intelligence agencies,
widespread illegal domestic operations are certain. We as a people should remember history and not repeat it. It is therefore
essential that the CIA be reorganized and stripped of its covert operations capability. Effective congressional oversight
is also an important condition for ending the misuse of the intelligence apparatus that has plagued every U.S. administration
since the formation of the CIA. A great deal is at risk our personal freedoms as well as the viability of this society. The
CIA must be put in its place. Should we demand or allow anything less, we will remain vulnerable to these abuses and face
the risk of decaying into a lawless state destined to self-destruction.

The CIA may argue that it dirties itself in the narcotics industry because that is where it finds the leaders
of nations it seeks to comprehend and influence. Over a period of five years I became convinced of the participation in the
drug traffic of high officials in at least thirty-three countries: Afghanistan, Argentina, Australia ... France, Haiti, Honduras,
Italy ... and the United States. — from Excerpt 5
- Excerpt 1
Information [about Centac] continued to pour in. Phone calls came from as far away as Hong Kong, classified documents
appeared in envelopes with no return addresses, a forty-pound cardboard carton arrived packed with CIA documents stamped SECRET.
- Excerpt 2
No more than a handful of men in the world understood completely what Centac was and what it did. Though Centac was controlled
from a position within the Drug Enforcement Administration, its operations and power reached far beyond that agency.
- Excerpt 3
But leaders of source country governments, seeking foreign exchange or personal enrichment, frequently participated in
the [drug] traffic themselves, and the American State Department and CIA, seeking to retain military, diplomatic, and intelligence
allies, were loath to blow the whistle.
- Excerpt 4
Another secret cable, four pages in length, from the CIA's Bahamas station reported government corruption with astonishing
precision, detailing not only the names of a half-dozen bribe-taking officials but the exact amount of the bribes ($50,000
to over $100,000) and specifically what favors they bought. At least one DEA official expressed shock, not so much at the
revelations as at the thoroughness with which they were known. It was almost as if the CIA had been involved in some way.
- Excerpt 5
When Noriega later visited Washington, the CIA tried to prevent his meeting with DEA Administrator Francis Mullen. ...
Evidently the CIA did not want Panama's boss establishing direct relations with the leadership of DEA. "Why not?" I asked
an agent familiar with Noriega's visit. "Because the CIA takes the position that 'We have the total picture. We see things
you don't see. You don't know it all.'" And surely that is true. Only the CIA knows it all.
- Excerpt 6
You do not have to be a ClA-hater to trek around the world viewing one major narcotics group after another and grow amazed
at the frequency with which you encounter the still-fresh footprints of American intelligence agents. You might never be absolutely
certain the footprints shouldn't be there, but you will always be uncomfortable that so many solemn men in pinstriped vests
are lying about them. The tracks are everywhere.
- Clandestine Drug Study Commission Act
But the CIA defied the DEA and they shipped this pure cocaine into the United States in 1990, and they have since
acknowledged that they defied the laws of this government and allowed the drugs to be sold on the streets of the United States
of America. I challenge anybody to tell me that it did not happen, because it is documented.
This document concerns an amendment to legislation pending before the U.S. House of Representatives. This amendment, put
forward by Ms. Maxine Waters, Democrat from California, would establish a commission to be known as the "Clandestine Drug
Study Commission" to investigate the involvement of the CIA in the smuggling of drugs (in particular, cocaine, in ton quantities)
into the U.S. and the subsequent distribution of those drugs. The amendment was opposed by representatives Goss from Florida
and Dixon from California. The discussion ends with the withdrawal of the amendment by Ms. Waters, perhaps because the votes
were not there to pass it. The discussion is interesting, revealing on one hand the courage of Ms. Waters and her desire to
bring the facts of this matter to the attention of the American people and, on the other hand, the willingness of representatives
Goss and Dixon (despite their apparent agreement with the aims of Ms. Waters) to block this inquiry and to participate in
the cover-up-as-usual.
