Anyone know anything about what happened in the 1980's regarding Mena, Arkansa and the CIA giving arms to Nicaragua contras for cocaine then the CIA bringing cocaine back into Arkansa to sell for money?
Why would the CIA give arms to the contras in Nicaragua and/or Iran...for what purpose?
Does this have anything to do with the Iran - Contra scandal...are tied to each other or separate trades (meaning contras in Iran and contras in Nicaragua?
Was it Arms to Nicaragua for Cocaine
and Arms to Iran for money?
2 separate scandals?
I searched the net but all i found was conspiracy junk...so i figured i would ask you guys. |

Well, I dunno about the whole CIA deal you're talking about, but the Iran-Contra scandal was NOT for money. The whole purpose of the Iran-Contra affair was to negotiate a trade with the Iranians of arms for hostages. If the US wanted to make money, I can think of far better methods such as the billion dollars weapons sales industry. But I haven't really studied the matter all that much. |

Lol occrider....why not just give people a phrase you think would work and say "put this into Google" :D
Is it not amazing how easy it is to just search for something yourself than to ask someone else for the information?

I did not mean you specifically. I was speaking in generalizations because a lot of people will come on here and post some question like the whole "how dodgy is acid" thread in chill out and expect people to do their work for them.
occrider does have an ability to sift throught the bull results on searches fairly quickly (it takes a LOT of practice) so if his info is helpful I don;t begrudge you that.
I apologize if I offended you, I was just making a gross generalization. Not something worth starting a flamewar about.
Ciao,
