American Drug War documentary

In case you had any questions about the connection between the U.S. Government and the illegal drug trade, here is a documentary for you.

In case you believe our government doesn't aid, abet, or outright control the illegal drug trade -- brace yourself, set aside a couple hours, and watch this video. It's not wingnut, it sticks to reputable sources, and covers over 30 years of the rise of the drug trade in the U.S.

It also makes very cogent points about drug laws, prohibition, the prison industry, class war, and "post 9/11" terrorism policy and spin.

I know it's a tall order for folks, but believe me the story is absolutely intriguing, even just taken as a narrative.

There is some seriously historic footage in here as well -- like Mike Ruppert directly challenging the head of the CIA in a public meeting in California.



Enjoy the stretch and strain associated with opening ones eyes,
