| Description | An extremely profitable business, which is also extremely low risk when undertaken on a large enough scale, with protection from the various law enforcement agencies. A natural for deep state groups, which can be safely assumed to control the overwhelming majority of global drug trafficking. |
Contents
Official narrative
The global drug trade is an immensely profitable business, and as such, its reporting in the commercially-controlled media is heavily influenced by deep state interests keen to protect their profits. The official narrative emphasises the role of bit players, noting that, for example, cocaine "is often brought in to the UK by drug mules; in suitcases or by swallowing bags."[1] National governments and authorities in general are routinely portrayed by the establishment as staunch opponents of the illegal drug trade, as evidenced by their pursuing a "war on drugs". The massive evidence pointing to close ties between drug cartels, intelligence agencies and deep state groups, is almost never mentioned in the context of drug running.
Problems
The official narrative makes no mention of the CIA's drug trafficking, of Operation 40 or of deep events such as the Susurluk incident which provide compelling evidence for the existence of a deep state, a hidden nexus of high level politicians, drug traffickers, arms dealers and intelligence agency operatives.
"I stood at the Friendship Bridge at Termez [Uzbekistan] in 2003 and watched the Jeeps with blacked-out windows bringing the heroin through from Afghanistan, en route to Europe. I watched the tankers of chemicals roaring into Afghanistan. Yet I could not persuade my country to do anything about it."
Craig Murray
The disinterest of authorities in investigating massive money laundering by large banks,[2] the scale of drug smuggling operations and the apparently inability of the authorities to prevent it would seem to support the accusations of a lot of whistleblowers:- that the resources of nation states are being marshaled, not to hinder the global drug trade, but to actively promote and carry it out.
Naturally derived drugs
Humans have been using plant derived, either partly processed or in natural form since records began and no doubt before.
Cannabis

Cannabis is the most popular recreational drug. It can be grown in most locations with relative ease. As a result, production centres and smuggling routes are diverse. This presents a problem to the illegal drug trade. For the last half century, their solution to maintain profitability has been to strictly prohibit its cultivation especially in the 'developed' countries such as North America and Europe. Nevertheless it is relatively bulky compared other drugs and so correspondingly demanding to smuggle.
Cocaine

- Full article: Cocaine
Cocaine is produced from coca grown in the Andes in South America. Its huge popularity and illegality has created huge profits for the deep state group with the wherewithal to traffic it on a large scale. So much evidence has accumulated that the CIA's name has become synonymous with cocaine trafficking to USA,[3] but the US Deep State does not have a monopoly over its export and is engaged in war with the Hezbollah, Syria, Iran triangle which uses submarines to smuggle it via Africa (especially Sierra Leone).[4]
Heroin
- Full article: Heroin
- Full article: Heroin
The majority of the world's heroin is produced from opium grown in Afghanistan. Sibel Edmonds has stated that deep state interests move most of it to Turkey for refinement before it is shipped to Europe or North America. Harvests are much greater now than before the US lead invasion.
Alfred McCoy wrote in 1972 that the SDECE financed all of its covert operations during the Indochina War from its control of the Indochina drug trade.
Synthetic Drugs
Synthetic drugs can be made anywhere in the world with roughly equal ease, and so their production is harder to interdict. The problem is tackled by having a range of international treaties which attempt to limit and monitor these drugs' precursors, that is, the chemicals from which they are most easily and safely synthesized. This regulatory area is of course of great interest to big pharma.

MDMA, 'Ecstasy' or 3-4,Methylenedioxymethamphetamine was made illegal in UK in 1977 and in USA in 1985. It functions similarly to an amphetamine in terms of energy, but increases empathy which renders it unsuitable for exploitation in combat situations.
Examples
| Page name | Date | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 2006 Mexico DC-9 drug bust | A DC-9 made an emergency landing and was found to be containing over 5 tonnes of cocaine. The pilot "disappeared", unnamed, and the plane was deregistered and sold within days to an unknown customer in Venezuela. | |
| 2007 Yucatan Gulfstream drug crash | A plane used by the CIA for rendition, which later crashed in Mexico, with tons of cocaine aboard. | |
| Angel Fire | A hub of deep state guns and drug running in the 1980s, similar to Mena, Arkansas, but much less known. | |
| CIA/Drug trafficking | Drug trafficking by the CIA makes up a large contribution to its black budget | |
| Drug smuggling | The covert transport of drugs. Although increasingly legal in some places, when not, governments clandestinely often get involved. | |
| Mena | A now somewhat infamous hub of deep state guns and drug running | |
| Mena/Intermountain Municipal Airport | Center of drug trafficking in the 80s. |

| Far West | “There are two kinds of businesses: those which flourish from peace and the strengthening of law and those which require the opposite - zones of incessant chaos like Chechnya Colombia Afghanistan where drugs can be grown or trafficked under the watch of PMCs.” | Peter Dale Scott | 26 February 2006 |
| Netherlands/Deep state | “The Netherlands has a long history with cocaine. In the early 1900s, the Dutch East India Company – having exploited and enslaved millions of people – began growing coca in its colonies in Indonesia. There was even a cocaine factory in Amsterdam, which supplied marching powder to all sides in World War One. When international treaties finally put a halt to the Dutch’s rampant coke dealing, Rotterdam emerged as a key import site for the illicit trade of the drug from South America.” | Vice News | 2020 |
