It’s Not Novichok. It’s An Overdose Of Heroin/Fentanyl

The case for a Russian nerve-agent attack on the Skripal’s completely fell apart when they recovered and want into silent running. Now the British government is doubling down with a second case of so-called Russian “Novichok” poisoning. However, buried within recent articles about the second couple who fell ill, are snippets of the truth – […]

Portions of a lengthy article by McCoy are reproduced in the article at this link: http://www.covertbookreport.com/professor-alfred-mccoy-on-the-politics-of-heroin/ (Excerpt) “Once the mujahedeen fighters brought the […]

Let’s take a look at two versions of “the drug war”; The war on drugs – and The war on drugs.

The Secret Government, Drugs and Terrorism

It’s always been said that wherever the CIA goes, drugs come back. That may be a simplification. Evidence is mounting to suggest that the heroin trade has gone global, not just in its distribution, but in the ability of the players to stage world-changing events.

  • Review: “Continental Reckoning” By Elliot West
    I learned quite a bit in reading this huge book, which probably was meant for college classes. Indeed, the author of “Continental Reckoning”, Elliot West, is a Professor of History Emeritus at the University of Arkansas. This book should be in an Economic or Law history class, and probably is. Author Elliot West clearly outlines […]

Kesey is best known for writing “One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest” (mental institutions) and “Sometimes A Great Notion” (an Oregon logging family). Both books were actually written in California, and both are […]
  • Review: “Acid Dreams” By Lee & Shlain
    I found “Acid Dreams; The Complete History Of LSD: The CIA, The Sixties, And Beyond” a pretty good summary of the LSD experience, from the use of the drug in interrogation techniques used by intelligence agencies, to the use of such drugs to destabilize the revolutionary youth movement. At nearly 300 pages (my copy), it […]
  • Did Jack Scott “Radicalize” The NBA’s Bill Walton?
    Did Jack Scott Radicalize NBA Star Bill Walton? Sadly, we have to note that Bill Walton (and Jack Scott) are no longer living. Walton was a hero for many where I grew up in Portland, Oregon. He was the star of an NBA championship, which I pretty much didn’t care about. Later, Walton was doing […]
