Celebrating a Golden Anniversary:
50 Years of Drug Dealing by the CIA
PART I. THE
HELLWELL DYNASTY
or HOW
BURMA GOT ITS START
Various
News Sources
It's generally agreed
that 1996's biggest news story was
Gary Webb's San Jose Mercury scoop
that ghetto drug dealers
claim none other than the American
CIA to be their supplier!
But Spooks dealing drugs isn't
a 90's thing. Our beloved
agency busily flew heroin around
Asia on the CIA proprietary
airline AIR AMERICA during Viet
Nam, and refined Hmong and
Burmese poppy in Asian soft drink
bottling factories, used the
U.S. Mafioso MOB to distribute
the drugs and banked millions
in their own Bank which they later
collapsed, stealing the
receipts.
Just revealed: the sixties weren't
the start of the CIA
dealing poppy to ghettos. Colonel
Paul Hellwell of the OSS
brought heroin from Burma and
sold it in U.S. ghettos as far
back as the 40's, so Gary Webb
is five decades late with his
scoop! We are in a 50 year anniversary
of something other than
just Roswell aliens! The Hellwell
Aliens also were gray men,
that being the exact shade of
their MORALS!
The heroin that the OSS dealt
was grown in Burma, and refined
in Shanghai. The OSS stumbled
upon this import when they were
in Asia with the Flying Tigers
to stop MAO TSE TUNG from
getting into power. Tigers were
supposedly heroic civilian
volunteers --John Wayne even played
one in a movie, but this
was just a lacquer job. The Tigers
were OSS mercenaries paid
for with OSS SECRET funds (at
first, OLIGARCH money, later
drug receipts). ALLEN DULLES was
the brains behind the Tigers
and the entire agency then. Dulles
ran an inner clique at the
OSS, what was to become Directorate
of Covert Actions. Dulles
was also very tight with the super-rich
Eastern billionaire
families, (read Dulles' biography
and read BITTER FRUIT by S.
Kinzer which indicates oligarchs
paid for dirty tricks). If
you read up on it, you'll discover
that Dulles ran secret wars
out of the White House (not unlike
Ollie North) and had a
repressive agenda related to every
banana republic that had
nationalistic or socialist tendencies,
which might get in the
way of transnationalist corporative
agendas.
The Flying Tigers
were in China helping a General named
Chiang Kai-Shek (nicknamed 'CASH
MY CHECK' as behind our
backs, he sold our guns to the
Japs). Chiang was used in an
attempt to destroy Mao. Of course,
it couldn't be done and in
1949 they had to beat a fast retreat
to Taiwan. Mao later
stopped all poppy-dealing by making
death a penalty for it.
But before the end, Colonel Paul
Hellwell, an Ivy leaguer,
rich kid, observed how Chiang
sold opium to Chinese addicts to
earn revenues for guns and troops.
The French saw the same
thing going on in Vietnam when
it was their colony. Dope and
spooks kind of made terrific sense
to Dulles. An intelligence
service can't pay for underhanded
illegal covert ops. Tax
payers can't, Congress WON'T.
Why should it be left to poor
oligarchs to fund the secret fight?
You have to think like the
OSS. In their heads, the fight
was patriotic...it was against
nasty nationalists or dirty communists
seeking to get nice
YANKEE traders out so they could
have their OWN industries.
Actually nationalists called us
Yankee IMPERIALISTS and felt
we were out to exploit their banana
republics and acted so
much like Commies that we felt
it was patriotic to rub them
out. Why should oligarchs pay
for their murder when blacks in
U.S. ghettos would empty their
pockets for drugs? And boy, did
those nickles add up!
Industriously, Colonel
Hellwell created SEA SUPPLY, an OSS
proprietary company, out of Miami
and used it to carry guns
across the ocean to China. The
opium was grown in Burma, so
Hellwell went to Burma and made
friends with the royal family.
After WWII, Hellwell became the
Burmeese Consulate in Miami so
up to his chin was he with the
Burmeese. In Burma, Hellwell
secured all the poppy franchises
he needed and sent the basic
black poppy tar to CHINA to be
processed into China White then
brought it back to America on
Sea Supply boats, totally immune
to snoopy customs inspectors.
Then, he shipped guns back to
China, a classic 'boats go both
ways full' profitable shipping
Modus Operandi. Next, he used
the CIA's old pals in the
American 'mob' to distribute drugs
in the ghetto.
Parenthetically, the OSS had befriended
Lucky Luciano, at the
height of WWII, when they'd sprung
him from the pen 'early,'
--considering he was a lifer---as
the OSS needed his help
winning the war. The Mafia-controlled
dockworkers on the
Atlantic coast were unruly, always
striking for more pay,
which wasn't very patriotic of
them. Also, the OSS needed
spies in Sicily for the planned
invasion.
In Lucky Luciano they found a
kind of all-purpose Swiss Army
knife. Charlie Lucky became the
Agency Poster boy for Civilian
volunteerism. In all his career,
Luciano had resisted dealing
drugs, so his services had a price.
(There's a Chris Reeves
movie 'MONISGNEUR' about the toehold
U.S. Mafia got in Italy
during the war. Rent it. A huge
CIA network mushroomed in
Italy with Vatican bankers tied
to the Mob.)
After the war, the OSS needed
the mob to distribute heroin in
the ghettos. Luciano, relocated
to Italy, said 'use my main
man in The Big Apple, my accountant,
Meyer Lansky. He'll set
you up.' The Agency did, and Meyer
gave them his Tampa,
Florida lieutenant, Santo Trafficante.
When he got old, they
used his son Santo Trafficante
Jr. So when people say the CIA
first used the Mob to assassinate
JFK & FIDEL in the early
60's, they're off by a few decades,
but who's counting?
Parenthetically, another
scumbag friend of the OSS (after
'47, when they had so many Nazis
on board, they decided to
ditch the double S's and called
it THE CIA) was the German
GESTAPO. The military actually
brought dozens of top echelon
Gestapo and SS spies out of Germany
when these men approached
them with a valuable bargaining
chip: their spy networks and
personal war records could be
used to survey and CONTROL the
Russians. These Nazis made it
to Georgetown and eventually
their philosophy and tactics were
grafted on to the Allen
Dulles --oligarch funded, drug-running
SPY MACHINE which began
to use racist, gestapo tactics
designed to eradicate dissent
just as Hitler had done.. They
murdered intellectuals,
constitutionalists, nationalists,
socialists and Utopians with
death squad tactics ---which were
taught at Fort Benning to
foreign officers and began to
be used extensively in Latin
America by local militaries. Our
own soldiers did it too, as
the Phoenix Program in Viet Nam,
which killed thousands of
teachers, civilians, village leaders
suspected of sympathizing
with Hanoi. Nazi genocide continues
to be used up to the
present day. Nazi-invented methods
are still used for the
murdering of intellectuals, university
teachers, heroic
politicians or snoopy reporters
to quiet them and frighten
others. Ask Danny Casolero, or
Vince Foster.
And where do they get the money
for hitmen and killers? The
Poppy trail is alive and well
with Burmese heroin exported to
China for refining, then to Long
Beach Crips and Bloods gangs.
Addicts, in the ghettos, the Nazis
in the CIA, their
Cuban-exiles who worked in Latin
America, who murdered Che,
all of it sprang from the Hellwell
Dynasty. Paul Hellwell was
the magnificent, sick tap-root
of an ancient, tall, poisonous
tree. Hellwell (well named when
you think of it) devised a way
around the U.S. Constitution just
when spooks needed millions
of dollars in discretionary funds
far from Congressional
purview. Dope did the job. BURMA
did the job. Lansky kept
moving the stuff to the barrio
in the late 40's and through
out the 50's. No one cared as
long as only blacks were
addicted.
PART II. THE DRUG DEALERS HMONG
US
The 50's were the years
of CIA covert operations in Latin
America, designed to keep our
colonial hegemony over our
nearest neighbors. The heroin
profits rolled in via addicted
blacks in the big cities. U.S.
police kept busting the French
Corsican traffickers, the FRENCH
CONNECTION, trying to keep
UNCLE SAM's BURMA CIA drug cartel
#1.
In the sixties, the
Saigon office of the CIA (Ted Shackley
of IranContragate fame) ran both
the genocidal Phoenix program
and infamous AIR AMERICA and still
found time to sell heroin
to G.I's. (No wonder we lost!)
And they found time to run a
bank into the ground, too. Cash
drug receipts went to their
OWN, BOLDLY incorporated Nugan
Hand bank, with CIA officials
actually ON THE BOARD. Guess who
the bagmen were? Colonel
Ollie North and Lieutenant Richard
Secord showed up as the two
madcap PILOTS who ferried bags
of cash that poured in both
from Asian earned receipts from
Nam /G.I. addicts and from the
U.S. where Santos Trafficante
pere et fils, (Meyer Lansky's
lieutenants) were distributors.
All these receipts were
deposited in Australia where they
could lend them out 9 times
to the dollar when they weren't
being used and see a tidy
growth rate.
To keep the Burmeese Generals
in check, --by the 60's they
were a bunch of very uppity millionaires,--
the CIA expanded
to buying poppy from Hmong villagers
in Laos which they
refined right there in VietNam
in Pepsi factories. (You saw it
in the Mel Gibson movie, Air America.
I know you didn't
believe it. It was beyond imagination
but it happened.)
Parenthetically, today, "Free
Burma" activists at American
colleges wonder why Pepsi keeps
doing biz in such a nasty
country. They want a trade blocade
and Pepsi won't cooperate.
Heck, Pepsi RUNS the drug machine
in Asia. During the Nixon
years, Pepsi bottling companies
were used for refining the tar
into powder. Go see AIR AMERICA.
It's all there. PEPSI, bold
as brass.
A Pepsi Co. chairman
was Nixon's most excellent pal ever
since days when Nixon was White
House Case Officer on Cuba
during the Eisenhower administration.
Nixon broke champagne
bottles at Pepsi plant openings
regularly after he and Ike
left Washington until he returned
to DC as president, with a
decade between posts giving him
time to do some serious
bonding with Pepsi. In that time,
Dick also ran around with
his Cuban-exile crew who worked
for the CIA, doing the worst
kinds of mischief: murdering Che
Guevara, downing commercial
Cuban planes and killing JFK.
Where was Nixon the day JFK got
hit? At a Pepsi convention in
Dallas. The truth is, Nixon loved
spywork as much as he hated
the handsome liberal who ran against
him and won in the 1960
election, hated him as much as
he hated Fidel, which is A LOT
as best buddy Cuban exile Bebe
Rebozo had taught him all about
Cuba. Nixon was on a first name
basis with all the Cuban
exiles and spooks in that infamous
Miami proprietary "ZENITH
CORP" on the Miami University
grounds. A team of them went
after both Fidel and JFK simultaneously:
David Atlee Phillips,
E. Howard Hunt, Frank Sturgis,
and actually, to the very last
Cuban, were the Cast of Watergate.
Last but not least, Howard
Hughes was Dick's Daddy War Bucks
or 'Deep Purse.'
Dick Nixon was an integral link
in the Hellwell Lineage. When
he fell, Reagan, Casey and George
Bush carried the torch
through an interesting period.
After the Viet Nam heroin
years, there was a new drug trend:
peppier LATIN-produced
drugs, cocaine...and new suppliers
-- Columbian cartels -- but
the same old U.S. barrio black
customers as in the late 40s
when Hellwell and company began.
The truth about the
Cocaine years (which we still are in)
has much to do with IranContragate,
a three way tie between
the CIA/ the Shah and Nicaragua.
This White House operation
emerged from the White House,
it's true, but not from dim-bulb
Ronald Reagan but from his industrious
V.P. George Bush, a
career CIA officer. Bush started
the Contras to harass
Nicaragua and prevent Danny Ortega's
Marxist Leninist
socialists from creating a New
Cuba. You know, the kind of
Republic that sends more teachers,
doctors and food growing
techs to the third world than
God himself? Bush funded the
Contras with cocaine receipts.
The star gambit of the period
was that triangle between the
Shah, the Contras and Bush. The
CIA had supported the Shah
from way back. They couldn't always
give him cash so they did
the next best thing. They gave
him a money-printing set -- a
U.S. intaglio press, silk paper,
mint Green #1 ink, and
genuine U.S. printing plates.
Mini-treasuries were apparently
a perk of tyrants who chummed
with the Agency. This printing
press was known to Bush so next,
Bush offered a favor to
cocaine king Pablo Escobar (his
prime supplier) -- to LAUNDER
8 billion dollars of coke receipts,
i.e. make them into legal,
spendable, investable money. How?
Well, it was imaginative.
Bush took 8 billion from Escobar,
which was deposited into a
Panama bank in Escobar's name.
But Bush did a fast one. He
took 4 billion in GOOD coke --
dusted hundred dollar bills to
Iran and told the Shah he could
have real dollars if he'd give
him back 8 billion of the Shah's
freshly printed, funny money.
The Shah had presses going day
and night for a few weeks, then
Bush brought 8 billion back to
Escobar's vault, in their U.S.
Panama bank. Then, Bush purloined
the other half of Escobar's
good money and gave it to a Latin
American politician, Nana
DeBusia of Guyana where it was
laundered in accounts under the
signatures of Bush and Casey earmarked
for use by the Contras.
This was the real Iran Contragate
-- the story that never
surfaced.
Well, whaddya want? Drugs for
guns is a fifty year old
American tradition. Life goes
better with coke, Pepsi AND
heroin too, it would seem. Drugs
produced untraceable cash for
spies to do the things they love
best: run armed mercenaries,
kill University professors, anti-colonials,
anti-imperialists,
anti-fascists, journalists, all
of which are the standard
Hitlerian Dirty Tricks, along
with turning elections with paid
staged dramatics. Michael Manley
got chased out of a second
term in Jamaica, with great bloodshed
during election. Manley
had anti-colonial smarts that
rivaled Karl Marx, a Fidel with
no trigger finger, no rough edges,
an urbane gentle, English
Abe Lincoln type. Mobs were hired.
That debacle cost a pretty
penny. Same thing getting ALLENDE
out in Chile. The people had
to be roused, anti-Allende propaganda
achieved by buying
Chilean journalists. Go see film
MISSING with Lemmon/Spacek.
From the book The Kidnapping of
Charles Horman written by the
boy's father, who was played by
Lemmon, and see our
battleships parked off shore during
the week long
'revolution.'
Costa Gavras movies
really trace agency history---in "Z",
see U.S. installed GENERALS IN
GREECE murdering every
dissident. A later film with Yves
Montand, "State of Siege"
about a CIA torture expert, of
the DESAPARECIDO period,
kidnapped by leftists in Uruguay.
WE DID THAT. OUR CIA.
Killing activist students, angling
for MEN SYMPATHETIC TO THE
multi-nationals to WIN ELECTIONS,
changing the monkey, they
call it all of which costs big
bucks.
The Agency has been 'fixing things'
that way ever since Italy
in the late 40s when Commies first
began running for office.
It's very costly to swing a vote.
But the CIA has its little
coffers, filled by its little
importing businesses, cheap
merchandise from the orient. This
is how the CIA built the
Burmese generals into what they
are today: repressive
genoicidal murderers. It built
Saddam Hussein and Idi Amin and
Marcos, Noriega, and the Shah
and Somoza and all those African
and Latin despots who sold out,
allowed the multi-nationals to
come in and enslave peasants,
take the land, control industry,
and who exploited and plundered
their own people, wrecked
their countries, stole all the
money and banked it in
Switzerland and who have caused
plagues and famines and civil
wars and genocide in their home
towns. The usual Suspects.
Pals of the Agency, all the way.
Conversely, the same CIA
murdered all the good presidents
like Arbenz of Guatemala,
Allende in Chile for daring to
speak out. And now the CIA is
being forced to look at the monsters
they created in Burma.
You probably didn't see that Patricia
Arquette film about
Burma, it showed us what Hell
looks like.
Burma, Africa, Latin America,
Central America, South East Asia
was the same carnage that was
in Chile when the Agency tryed
to stop Allende. The CIA batter
fried that country to make it
look so chaotic they had to park
battleships offshore, and
send people in to stop non-existent
riots so they could
machine gun Allende to death and
say he committed suicide.
Stupid locals to this day think
Allende ruined their country.
It was Henry Kissinger who told
Nixon, 'we will make their
economy scream.' He used American
trojan horse agencies like
A.I.D. to put the forceps to the
economy to make the Chileans
think their ruler was a Commie
rat. Since the 40's, Henry and
his bosses and their hireling
intelligence agents have made
the entire planet scream to prevent
ONE THING happening, the
HOLD of the world bankers and
transnationals they own, the
Rothschilds, Morgans, Lehmans,
Warburgs in Europe, the
ROCKEFELLERS in NYC and their
FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM, and the
rest of the 13 families ---to
prevent that oligarch hold
loosening on all the trade, banks
and gold on the planet.
And it isn't over. Let us move
to current events. CLINTON just
opened Long Beach Harbor to the
RED ARMY, the processor and
distributor for Burma-grown poppy.
Why did John Huang raise
all that Chinese money for Bill?
Clinton and the CIA have
allowed RED CHINA to bring heroin
in in exchange for it. This
was not Bill's idea, of course.
Clinton has been the CIA's
go-fer-& facilitator for two
decades. Remember MENA airport in
Arkansas? That's where all the
IranContragate coke got into
the U.S. You've read COMPROMISE
by TERRY REED? Mort Sahl has
been heard telling people to read
it. You find it at better
bookshops. It tells how Clinton
was paid for his long years of
CIA work.
LONG BEACH HARBOR
did not want these Chinese in there,
fought it. The Prez got them in.
Now, COSCO (People's
Liberation Army's shipping company)
containers come in by the
thousand FULL of the most sophisticated
guns in the world, AK-
47's, GIVEN to CRIPS AND BLOODS
who are the distributors of
the heroin to American schoolkids.
Groups that want to
get the Generals out of Burma have to
step on the snake's head, locate
that long, thin supply line
from Burma to the USA. You people
who are on the Net reading
this, do your research. It's all
in books. Then, join the FREE
BURMA coalitions at local colleges
or the Black Outrage
groups. Next, stir up a media
ruckus. Find the authors, get
them on your favorite, local radio
shows where the NAACP can
hear them. Keep the Gary Webb
story CIA DEALING DRUGS TO
GHETTOS alive. Contact author
researchers Fred Landis, Donald
Freed, and ex CIA guys, Victor
Marchetti, Ralph McGehee,
Phillip Agee, John Stockwell,
and ex-DEA agent Michael Levine.
And Danny Sheehan, Father Bill
Davis. Their websites and
lecture agents are easy to find
with a search engine like
<alta vista.digital.com Just
appoint yourself a booking
agent, and get them on radio shows
you enjoy, preferably
nationally syndicated. You can
even look for British authors
as it's all done by telephone
interview these days. Black
Outrage groups, FREE BURMA groups
are taken very seriously but
they don't do their homework.
They have to research, write and
footnote, publish and broacast.
They have to use this
information in their demonstrations,
mounted as street
theatre. CIA spooks with big needles,
Burmese Generals dancing
with American Generals.
The Hellwell dynasty
IS A LINEAGE of spies, funding guns for
dirty trix, fixed elections, tumbling
the monkeys in third
world republics, and all of it
paid for by US barrios. THIS
ARMY crawls on its stomach because
it's a SNAKE! It should be
sued out of business by MOTHERS
of addicts who have been
jailed, wives of fathers jailed,
and last of all, all the
crippled crack babies born to
addict mothers. VICTIMS SHOULD
seek pro-bono lawyers and SUE
these spymasters and the
oligarchs who run them---as INDIVIDUALS
---for multi-million
dollar damages under federal racketeering
laws. Judges often
cannot be bought. Law suits might
be profitable for such
citizen activist groups.
The opportunity for ending the
CIA's reign of terror may fall
ironically and finally to the
blacks who were spoon fed drugs
for so long. Gary Webb's getting
the Black Caucus and NAACP
mad as Hell was part miracle,
part good move. Burma activists
and black activist groups should
make a rainbow coalition and
get in touch with Webb ( gwebb@sjmercury.com
). More than any
other journalist, Webb can help
expose this genocidal phalange
of the CIA.
We may also end up proving their
part in killing JFK. The oil
men that researcher/author Donald
FREED thinks murdered JFK
were Rockefeller oil pals in Texas.
Kissinger, stuck like a
PIN in Nixon's administration
as Secretary of State, was a
one-man think-tank for the Rocks.
The Rockefellers are the
main stockholders of all U.S.
oil companies and controlled oil
in the USA from its turn-of-the-century
discovery. Kennedy had
reduced the oil depletion allowance,
and was about to end the
war that the Rocks created. Rocks
were after the biggest oil
field on the planet in the South
China sea. The Rocks are not
lilly white. They lured the Saudis
into depositing all
petrodollars from 30 years of
drilling into western banks,
new, little offshore' banking
SUBSIDIARIES which couldn't be
linked to them. They lent the
petrodollars to third world
countries, who couldn't pay it
back, so they on paper 'lost
it', then they bankrupted/collapsed
all the banks so the
Saudis lost all their money. Jed
Bush got to collapse one,
Keating another. Rocks blatently
stole the petrodollars of the
poor towel heads!
It's odd but anywhere the Hellwell
Heritage is, Rockefellers
turn up. Winthrop Rockefeller
was governor of Arkansas when
Clinton needed signatures to become
a Rhodes Scholar. Clinton
was from camp Rockefeller from
day one. And why not?
Rothchilds and Rocks are all there
is on this planet. They
HAVE all the marbles. The other
5 billion of us can go starve.
Is that a dumb greedy game or
what? Who's going to buy their
Lincoln towncars or even a bottle
of aspirin at current costs?
Today, no matter what kind of
Ollie North right winger you
are, there is no justification
for dealing drugs to fight
Commies. There simply IS no more
cold war. Ruskis and Red
Chinese now appear to play ball
with us. (Many have their
doubts, knowing that a well trained
Leninist does not turn
coat on that knowledge that the
transnationals are
blood-suckers and there is no
real trckledown no matter what
the glad rap.) But, seeing that
Commies seem to want to get
into mutual funds, what has the
CIA got left to fight or
control? But this agency has control
on the brain, control the
target country to lie down and
accept the pronged teeth in the
neck. The big trading powers espouse
'free trade' but in truth
can't let anything be free or
organic. Everything is by
control, implemented by conspiracy.
Don't kid yourself. The CIA FUND
raisers are raising money for
something these days. The drugs
are flowing through the ghetto
faster than ever, and rival dealers
are being arrested all the
time so the Agency is up to something,
implementing some
hidden agenda with the money.
But suddenly, out of nowhere,
we can celebrate. Journalist
Gary Webb, the Free Burma groups
and the NAACP NIMBYs are
right on the JUGULAR of the BIG
GUY like a chupacabra. The big
guy knows it, even if he doesn't
let you KNOW that he knows
and even if you don't know that
he knows that you're right.
He's sweating that you're going
to find eveything out and come
after him. Will you? What do you
mean? If you read this far,
YOU JUST DID!
