Afghanistan & Pakistan: Global Gangster Governance Opium Wars

Javier Solana Decries Foul in Pakistan
and

Tries To Resuscitate Afghanistan Law With New EU Police Mission

What draws all these players to the same table?

***OPIUM***


It's no secret that governments and their power players have always tapped into the control, manipulation, and money of illegal drugs. Ever since the Opium Wars (Anglo-Chinese Wars) from 1839 to1860 when Britain was caught smuggling opium into China, wherever drugs are major money can be made. Opiates are on the minds of the United Nations as well as The Council On Foreign Relations, which has caught wind of the 2007 Opium Production In Afghanistan.

The problem that most people overlook is that this kind of money is soooo big its sometimes too hard to hide. The case in point has been the CIA Wall Street drug money laundering that has been documented by whistleblowers such as Michael Ruppert. In his book "Crossing The Rubicon" he basically states "The CIA is Wall Street, Wall Street is the CIA and Drug Money is King".

So it should not surprise us that Javier Solana and his NATO forces are encountering trouble in Afghanistan. His newest endeavor to issue a "New EU Police Mission" there will only continue to face harsher resistance with the possibility of failure. An article published in the New York Times testifies to the fact that although the government has halted opium fields in Afghanistan its replacing it with another cash crop "Marijuana".

The same applies to Pakistan. A major drug route as well as a supplier, huge drug monies are being fought over as we speak. New "political agendas" are being created to side the public away from illegal opium use for a healthier 'Legal" use, of course, under EU supervision of the narcotic.

So who will gain control over the poppies?

In the current Hollywood movie "American Gangster" we are lead to feel and sympathize with the protagonist gangster Frank Lucas (Denzel Washington). So, will public opinion be swayed over to the "War On Terror and Democracy" in regards to Afghanistan and Pakistan?

Well, either way you look at Global Gangster Governance is in its own Opium War and our man of the Hour is right in the middle of it.

This is unbelievable how it ties together even the timing of this movie. I wonder what will happen if they can really legalize poppy growth. Is there enough money to fight against the big pharma? I doubt it since the poppy was the main source of income for the farmers. It is incredible to think that so much poppy is grown over there to transport over here and the extra money that is made to fund Wall Street to keep our economy alive. Completely scary! -Kera
