NEW HEAD OF THE NRA, OLIVER NORTH, WORKED WITH COCAINE TRAFFICKERS TO ARM TERRORISTS

in #politics6 years ago

The full extent of North’s complicity in cocaine trafficking will never be known. When the Iran-Contra scandal story broke in November 1986, he ordered Hall to destroy so many documents that the shredder malfunctioned, and she had to ask White House maintenance to come and fix it. Moreover, when North was removed from his National Security Council job, he took with him 2,848 pages of daily notes — which legally belonged to the federal government.

My thoughts on this news

If you are not familiar with the Iran-Contra Affair during the Reagan administration it is a very interesting story and shows how the US Government likes to manipulate other countries. During that time period Oliver North was in charge of this operation which was named "The Enterprise" according to released CIA Documents. Basically what Oliver North was doing was supplying guns and money to a the Contras, a guerrilla military force, in Nicaragua. The reason he was doing this is because the US Government wanted the Contras to overthrow the socialist Sandinista government of Nicaragua. The problem is the Contras were also drug dealers and terrorists who smuggled drugs into the USA and killed innocent civilians in Nicaragua. Oliver North overlooked this and continued to fund their operation with money and weapons. Now this man is leading the NRA here in the USA...
