to of our village, we wish we could go back to our land. the commission of general of the un release agency for palestine. refugees who also will be a featured speaker at the un knocked with a collaboration event present of type fences for technology and intelligence issues from afghanistan, a horseman, and that their common goal is, you know, busting the bad guys also said around the world. now, what's. ringback the zone of through the jungles carrying low opium from the production place to where we're starting to have a wind in bangkok around bank this this organization. busy was funded, run projected by central intelligence. then you have all you have to do is google ever america, c i a drug smuggling. and you, what you learn is that every america was a proxy l line run by central intelligence for nothing more than traffic in

drugs across south east asia. now what, what was that for, for support in the war in vietnam? that was, it kind of was said stop paying for that war. see i wanted to keep going. they funded it through traffic in drugs into the veins and brains and americans and people. ringback over the world, it was their choice, and there's no one that can argue against that choice. you know, one is the position of know what i'm talking to is going to be able to do a damn thing about this. and i know that. so i guess i'm doing, i'm doing this will pass that really because it's almost no, it's not funny. let me say it's almost your point. it's not a joke. so i think that that agency, it really has gotten us in terrible trouble, and god knows we're real estate going because there's nothing to stop to run this

country. all right, more with michael levine when we return coming up next. if you thought americas pentagon budget was huge, the illegal drug trade is a very close 2nd. next find out. if drug trafficking is actually a tool of the ca, we'll discuss it when we return so tight. the m. o will be right back. the the 1935 fast is easily led by dictator benito mussolini decided to expand its colonial empire in africa and take over the opium. by that time,

ethiopia was the only fully independent states on the continent. back in 1896, its inhabitants were able to defeat the italian colonies and defend their independence since then. rome craved for revenge before the humiliating defeat. in the morning of october 3, 1935. without any announcement, the flashes attacked ethiopia and bombarded it most severely. ethiopian armed forces bod, courageously. but the roots allergy of battalions knew no bounds. they use not only massive bombing attacks on civilians, but also chemical weapons, toxic gases. this change the course of the war. as a result of the occupation of ethiopia by the fascist 760000 people were killed. the capture of the african state was committed with europe, staff,

and approval. britain and france recognize the annexation giving the green light to a further fastest expansion in the world and paving the way for the outbreak of world war to take a fresh look around his life. kaleidoscope. it gives him good, shifted reality distortion by power to division with no real opinions fixtures designed to simplify. it will confuse to really once a better wills, and is it just as a chosen few fractured images presented to this. but can you see through there illusions, going underground? can the

the welcome back to the m o. i manila chan retired under cover d e a agent mike levine is staying with us. now mike, today the former and gold and triangle is a major producer of math. the mexican drug, cartels are a major producer of other types, synthetic drugs like fentanyl. while it's true that you know, the u. s. has plenty of homegrown labs for synthetics, a lot of drugs make it into the us from abroad. the us is only 5 percent of the world's population, but it has over 20 percent of the world attics. the last several years, the u. s. is hovering at about a $100000.00 overdose debts per year. why are americans seemingly more addicted than other populations around the world? it's a complicated answer, but it's, it's one i can answer. i wrote

a book called fight back to an insight back. i researched the nations in societies and coaches that effectively one of the drug was huge, huge population of aeronautics, for instance, in china before mount se so took over it most people who really have no knowledge and say, oh, well, yeah, he told everybody, you know, everybody was dealing at drugs that wasn't the case at all. what he did was he recognized that this was an a problem of supply of drugs. as we tell our children. this is a supply of peer pressure. they believe what it was that got you into using when at the a well 40000000000 aeronautics when small st. tom took over on not a. com. i'm not a political guy in any way. so in that spouting communist, some of you idiots may say he is just a fact where he made it

a policy of the government for each neighborhood, for each community to be responsible for the addicts in that community. each community was responsible for keeping them, getting them off drugs and keeping them off the truck. there was very few executions, but what they did was they recognized that by telling people that you are a victim of drugs that the, the availability of drugs makes you a drug addict, which is what we tell our children. you are assuring that they will go into they will it's not my fault. yeah. they all feel like companies put it on the street. i had to take it because it's on the street. what's the worst thing you can do every read all the research. i did said the very worst thing you can do is tell children

that they can't resist. the availability of drugs is the reason they take drugs. that's just not so. you know, the reason they take drugs is pressure. the reason they take drugs is julia. the reason they say drugs is something you'd have to find for from each case, but has nothing to do with the availability of drugs. and the worst thing you can do is say the availability of drugs makes you an addict. now my boat 5 back was, was ruled up was a judge by the swedish quantity institute as the only anti drug book ever to come out of america. it made any sense at all. so those of you with people with drug problems in your family, i urge you to get to book this for fight back, but by my glue in my researches in there. and i think you should at least find it very interesting. but what you stop listening to is that the over like companies that somehow made your children victims of opiates or making them available. and

again, that's the worst thing you can tell children. is it a bug in the system that these overseas drugs operations boomerang home to the us? or is that a feature of the system for americans here at home? i was invited to speak to add a uh, it's a national junk symposium and power supply. the french truck and one of the other speakers there was a michelle just as asking ease, was it an advisor to the international monetary fund? he was a professor of economics at university of what we became friends. when do we become friends? when he, on the stage of this audience for $5600.00 experts and agents from all over the well, he said, if america stop buying drugs because it could conceivably cost cause an international banking price. that's how the drug economy,

as well as way into world economy. so your guess is as good as mine, what is the, the, the implication of that? some of you guys listening who may be economic expert way because i'm not an economic expert. but those words with showing i think they are very accurate. i think they're still accurate to this day. and what role do elicit and drugs play in the world of geo politics? and would you go as far as to say that drug trafficking is actually a tool of the c i a to achieve certain geo political goals? that's what i've been talking about to list. that's our, that's exactly what it is. you political goal during vietnam was killed economies. yeah. i you do that support the drug trafficking opposition to that

cut to south america during iran contra to go with the c. i a is get the alexis out. if you read my books a big white life, it's all about that. we were under cover deep cover. we had penetrated the biggest drug carto on earth at that time. and this lucy would send secret testimony before the senate and the 1st people to come up against us with central intelligence. try to destroy the case they wanted to get the video galer government. well, it was a left his government in bolivia, which was then the chief supply of local canaan. well, then what did he get out of power because she was a less yes. well, she was helping the a, bring down the cartels. so they for mentors to the agents a at the moment, the bloodiest revolution in bolivia, history, cocoa, they call it the cocoa revolution. and they, they show they,

they had to re learned all the, all of the letter you gave with government. they were destroyed. they were at home, took over that government under the sea ice protection. was they called the co king of we saw se, gomez. e then took it over and it was it minnesota. okay. it was a c, i a gosh. now going back to afghanistan, and in the 1980s, russia spent a decade there at war. the us only recently wrapped up it's 20 year campaign. they're both countries point 2 asked in opium as the cause for rise and white addiction. specifically right now on the rise in russia, turkey and iran, according to a 2009 statement from tim jones, the da's ashtray at the us embassy in moscow at the time. mister jones said this quote. unless we work together and attack this problem as a joint effort,

we're not going to be able to make the difference that we need to make. now that the us is in effect, locked in a new proxy war with russia, some even say a cold war. what does that mean for the world of drug trafficking, opm since afghanistan does produce over 90 percent of the world, opium is just words that they have to produce to fulfill their bureaucratic jobs. means that the, the operation burns, a furnace in olivia was exactly that. you when you, when it burned out the, the coco, we just burned it out. well, it was a success in the living and people side, sorry. we had it back out. that's a, that's a fact. it was such a sham as the we had, i've heard about it and so i think we, we want we won. why didn't we keep doing it now? because the fact the fact of the matter is to many people make a living,

living for crowns raping people. make a living off of this. so what do you want to do? what's the point some political purpose of making them stop? you know, it is, this is tough question. but the questions about reality is what it is. fact is we can't do that stuff. when we did back in 1971, i think it was 72. we put the turkish opium promise of this week. we got them in to the president nick president nixon. it's time i had to deal with them that stopped them from glowing the, the poppy leaves and the conception of they was a prime source arrow. and that immediately was kind of gives us immediately what happens is have a one sided coming in from other countries. mexico became a prime,

a prime supplier heroine strapped down who it was so few fennel, interesting seeking. you figure that i just stopped the ocean. you know is this is bizarre. yeah. we spend billions going just that sticking thing isn't bikes? just so we could say, look what we do a look, you know, this is what we're spending billions of dollars. of course, a lot of it going to us your address in salaries, but i'll give you all the words you want to know. and that's what tim and these are actually doing that this the job. there's no credit. you know, i was, i was a country attache. i had to make statements. no, i don't know tim is d e a. and i believe he's a, a country at a shade or a scientist, the country. so i know the job. i know. i know what it is to bureaucratic joe. yeah . michael levine, retired d e a. an author check out his books at michael levine. books dot com. thank you so

much, sir. to say thank you. it's really been my pleasure. that is good. i do it for this week's episode. i'm modus operandi the show that dig deep into foreign policy on your host manila chance. thank you for tuning in. we'll see you again next week to figure out the m o, the operation aerodynamic begin. shortly after world war 2, i lost it almost 3 decades. it was an a major effort to try and split ukraine or from the soviet union us intelligence together with hitler's execution. i was

trained hundreds of savages to be deployed in the soviet union. this focused was one of the stuff, my little self upsetting with linda's jewelry. store, which was the on site or she needs more meals today, security service of ukraine uses. not only does it does take methods, but most of the ideology of the nationalist the the, when someone tells you who they are, you should believe with the same applies to nato's current. secretary, generally on stilton, for the interview with the washington post office. nato is in practical belligerence in the brain conflict and that the alliance is anything defensive of the
