John Stewart On Iran Contra
Good to see popular culture namecheck the ground zero of United States corruption because it's a pet topic of mine that history and the corporate are not allowed to spend too much time on. Reagan was by all accounts a super nice guy who was told what to say and didn't spend much time thinking of the genocides he sponsored. Iran Contra is easily twenty times bigger than Watergate but Watergate was the power elite bringing down a Republican so they gave it the spinmeister treatment. Reality is a bit more complex than what you're told.

Iran - Contra - The Ground Zero Of America Corruption
Robert Parry is the journalist who broke the Iran Contra scandal. The corporate media prefer to lionize Naval Intelligence insider Bob Woodward over the far more trivial Watergate because the last thing the elites need is people taking a closer look at the ground zero of American corruption Guns for drugs for cash for more guns, more drugs and more cash and the cycle continued. If there's any chunk of history that has given me an A-Ha moment it's hanging around the Iran Contra evidence because it links to everything. Particularly the Bush crime dynasty.
You just can't go wrong researching it. The names you need to know pop up like mushrooms on meth.

Iran Contra - Respect The Uniform, Respect The Flag, Respect The Surface
Since I've been researching Iran Contra (The Ground Zero of American corruption) I've come to the conclusion that two researchers are so outstanding I'd trust them to turn up and prosecute the last five or six presidents without bringing a note with them. They are both cool, rational, exceedingly well informed and meticulous. They are John Judge and Dave Emory although Dave Emory seems to have issues with 9/11.
That's a major intelligence failure.

The Syrian Contras
I notice that Thierry Meyssan of Voltaire.net is referring to the CIA funded terrorists in Syria as Contras and although there's no drug connection (yet) I wanted to post it with Gary Webb's book Dark Alliance about the CIA connection to drugs and Nicaraguan Contras. Thierry does however specifically talk about the drugged and crazed appearance of the Syrian Contras in this video so maybe that drug connection is waiting to unfold.
