Defrauding America

On this Memorial Day, the nation honors the 58,000 dead American soldiers killed in the CIA initiated and directed Vietnam War. The mass media says virtually nothing about the ugly side of that war, in which GI’s were cannon-fodder, and used to protect and escalate the drug trafficking into the United States.

Flag-draped coffins of eight American Servicemen killed in attacks on U.S. military installations in South Vietnam, on February 7, are placed in transport plane at Saigon, February 9, 1965, for return flight to the United States. Funeral services were held at the Saigon Airport with U.S. Ambassador Maxwell D. Taylor and Vietnamese officials attending. # AP

Even in the death GI’s were used by the CIA. An officer heading a group of investigators from the army’s Criminal Investigation Division uncovered a large-scale heroin smuggling scheme. The group filed reports with the Pentagon, describing how the bodies of the dead GI’s were gutted, and filled with sacks of heroin. Approximately fifty pounds of heroin with a multi-million dollar street value were stuffed into each body…Document’s accompanying the drug-filled corpses were coded so that people at Air Force Bases in the United States, including at Travis and Norton air-force bases, could remove the drugs upon arrival in California.

In typical fashion, the military hierarchy reacted to the report by disbanding the investigative team. Other reports plus those given to me by my CIA contacts, provide further confirmation of this sordid practice. This coverup made possible the continued drug smuggling and constituted criminal coverup.

Crates returning to the U.S from Vietnam on military aircraft often contained bags of heroin, and the coded labels false indicated the contents were military supplies. The coverup by the military, the CIA,and the Justice Department, were part of the overall epidemic.

These aspects of the CIA-initiated and directed Vietnam War, and the debauchery of American GI’s, were never addressed at Memorial Day ceremonies. Instead the American public was led to believe that the hundreds of thousands of dead, maimed, and injured Americans suffered for an honorable cause, protecting the United States.

Even the heads of veteran organization, including the Veteran Foreign Wars and the American Legion, withheld this information from their members.

This is not to discredit those brave men and women who were ordered into battle and who endured such terrible fear, injury and death. But the American public must wake up, to realize that the extreme losses in human life and dignity were a farce perpetrated upon them.
