Bin Laden "plotted to poison US cocaine supplies"

It's shown on our subscription satellite and cable TV (not on Fox though, we don't get that). Or downloaded :p
 
It's on BBC2 aint it?

I thought alot of heroin came from Eurasia.

IIRC, 80% of heroin in the US comes from Latin America, 5% comes from Afghanistan (or from opium sourced there). I'm guessing the remaining 15% must be from SE Asia.
 
Most Powdeed H you get in the east coast comes from COLOMBIA (that's the right spelling, PLEASE stop spelling ColUmbia), the tar from the west coast from Mexico.
 
poppy production is in afghanistan, and if you ask static, transylvania as well. pure product is filtered through south america. bin laden could have just as easily tried to find a colombian heroin source. but why bother because according to the article:

"In 2002, then-DEA Director Asa Hutchinson said, "The DEA [has] received multi-source information that Osama bin Laden himself has been involved in the financing and facilitation of heroin-trafficking activities."

and yet he feels the need to get involved with colombian coke lords???

also:
"Despite bin Laden's plan being thwarted, the DEA believes that al Qaeda continues to this day to traffic in drugs to fund a variety of its operations — including training, traveling and terror attacks."

give yourself a pat on the back. not only did you spread more propaganda, you also reminded us that we should be living in constant fear.

the info was from 3 years ago. we were all terrified still back then. they "released" the "evidence" at a time when presidential approval ratings are dropping and people aren't as concerned with terrorist activities. plus it gives drugs a bad name. this article really does a good job at what its intended to do
 
Drug lords are thugs and murderes, I tell you living in a place full of them, fuck my best friend went to elementary school with Pablo escobar's daughter and the interpol came to take her out.
I lov drugs and all, but I hate the things it funds, and I have NO DOUBT that Al-Qaeda got a fair ammount of money from drug piducing/trafficking, hey I love heroin too, but it's kinda true that many of the funds fior this extremist islamic terrorist groups comes from high scale drug trafficking, don't be naive.
One more reason to legalize dope! ahh if only dope were legal....
 
i too call BULLSHIT... There are a million other more efficient ways of killing piles of yanks. there is little or no chance this is true
 
this could also benefit the yank authorities and enforcement agencies and the whole war on drugs thing being merged with the war on terror, so for the reasons I stated abvove (up in the northwest of my country we have jihad,hamas, and other extremist muslim groups freely working there, lots involved with the coke trade, check for "triple frontera" or "ciudad del este" if you don't believe me) and the following reasons I see it feasible and don't call it bullshit.
Doing drugs may be fun, the game, and THE REAL GAME, talking tons, half tons, 100kilos that stuff is no joke, and we have plenty of it here, I don't want to imagine what could happen if both (terrorists and drug lords) merged...
 
dude fuck that shit. Today in the news, Wes (thats me), purifies all adulterated cocain in america and runs through the streets throwing perfect gram sized baggies full of pinkpurple powder at everyone. He then proceedes to kill bin ladin, bush, throw up, and go to sleep. Police are now proceeding to his house to arrest him for saving lives and nostrils from baking soda.Welcome to the land of the free mother fuckers.

edit : Wow i really hate the word proceed.

Osama bin Laden tried to buy a massive amount of cocaine, spike it with poison and sell it in the United States, hoping to kill thousands of Americans one year after the 9/11 attacks, The Post has learned.


Yes, because the government and most Americans would be really upset if a significant number of our cocaine addicts were eradicated and no longer required millions upon millions of dollars to arrest, prosecute and imprison.

If bin Laden really did consider this plot... he's the biggest moron on earth.

But there is absolutely no way I can take this seriously. Especially considering the allegation that he met with leaders of Columbian cartels (as if they themselves weren't under survelliance by at least one government) after the War on Terror began.

Of course, the New York Post is run by a bunch of right-wing idealogues akin to Bill O'Reilly, so I can believe something so ridiculous.[/quote]
 
Man Half of colombia has no goverment, it's FARC and paramilitary groups, it's a shame cause it's a beautiful country, I lived there when I was 12, smoked my first cog, shot a gun for the 1st time, shoplifted for the firt time, break and entered for the fiorst and only time...hehe the mix of swede,spanish,colombian and argentine teens (I was the smallest of the bunch) being in Colombia of course was gonna cause lots of shit, and I didnt smoke weed at the time...if I had I'd been stoned all day, anyway It's very easy to bribe the authorities in colombia, the Colobia/Ecuador (a country where I lived more time) is a joke, but what's a real joke it's the Colombia/Venezuela border, and even the int'l organisms watching can't do shit, or more complex ecconomicqal reasopns or dont care, down here we're getting more colombian stuff than ever, they are moving their logistics and labs and also shipping ports.
The families from the cartels KNOW THE SHIT, THEY OWN US. Latin America is a Narco-Democracy...it'll take lots of time for the region to change, most iof the fault is because of lousy populist demagogic corrupt borderline tyrant govverns and parties tha stay forever, and "democratically" not like Castro, the Peronismo in my coubry or the PRI in Mexico are fine examples...and on Brazil Paraguay And My Country there are Extremists from muslim armed groups dealing withb the coke and stolen cars buissness...I mean Al-Qaeda is dividfided in their way of thinking ojn action in some ways, one of Bin-Laden's key collabrators, Ayman Al-Zawahiri (sp) says al-qaeda should concentrate more on finding fighters and imposing the jihad starting recruiting and taking over muslim countries, but after the london bombings it seems Zawahiri's position was some coverup or that they are having theoir internal problems, anyway Zawahiri's position would be mopre of selling to make $ for the jihad Bin Laden's spending whatever it takes to kill as many infidels as possible, so that's why I see it feasible, though not very likely to happen, Colombians wouldn't let it, unless they were fooled...Anyway back to "extremist groups" or how you wanna call'em: bassicallyall ths muslim extremist groups bassicaly is just the brainchild of Pakistani Abu-Ala Al Maududi which came with the concepts of allah controlling the earth sending prophets telling people to kill x person bomb xy place etc because it's allah's will an humans do allah's job, though infidels ain't humans they can't control or take part of this worldd, or well kaffars/kafir, that's how they call us infidels, but allah on't wipe us infidels out so he sends prophets telling orders, take that wuith their theocracies, tyranies, corruption, dispair of richness that's unveilaeibale and brainwashing since birth almost, and well you'll believe it and killing infidels with their filthy cocaine that poisons the world and pisses of allah some might say then if it's feassible to do it, why not? well that's up to the group...
 
my two cents

1) noone in america would care if heroin addicts got killed from their drug. No one. Coke is much muchmuch more popular.

2) Regardless of who was behind this, it woulda cost me some friends! Phew!
