With crime continuing to rise due to Leftist, progressive policies being implemented around the country, the importance of protecting the 2nd Amendment rights of all law-abiding Americans is critical.

Gary Webb on the CIA’s Role in the 1980s LA Crack Epidemic

Jack Xiong October 14, 2018

 

An explosive report from a relatively unknown journalist, Gary Webb, claimed the CIA helped foster the crack epidemic that ravaged Los Angeles in the 1980s.

 

In 1996, a bombshell report by journalist Gary Webb claimed that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) supported cocaine trafficking into the U.S. by Nicaraguan Contra Rebel organizations. The U.S. support was an effort to destabilize the left-wing Nicaraguan government which the U.S. viewed as a threat. The report claimed that trafficking lead to the crack epidemic in Los Angeles in the 1980s.

 

Gary Webb wrote the three-part exposé called “Dark Alliance”, for the San Jose Mercury News in California, in August 1996. Webb had anonymous sources (he eventually named one in a later book) who had been involved in the Nicaraguan drug ring to back his allegations up.

 

Some of Webb’s sources would later speak out in a 2015 documentary called “Freeway: Crack in the System” which was about Rick “Freeway” Ross who created a crack empire in the 1980s. Ross was a central character in Webb’s Dark Alliance allegations.

 

According to Webb in the 1980s, when the CIA exerted a certain level of control over Contra groups such as the Nicaraguan Democratic Force (FDN), the agency as well as the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) granted amnesty to and financially backed important Contra supporters and fundraisers who were known to the U.S. Government as cocaine smugglers.

 

The Contras were U.S.-supported right-wing rebel groups, active from 1979 to the early 1990s, in opposition to the socialist Sandinista Junta of National Reconstruction government in Nicaragua.

 

The U.S. Justice Department and its agencies — who were aware of the Contra-linked drug trafficking operations of the FDN supporters — allegedly thwarted local police investigations and blocked the prosecution of the Contra-linked cocaine traffickers…..
