Heads up! BET now showing AMERICAN GANGSTER - IranContra-CIA drugrunning

[blm]

I just logged back on to let you all know.

It's a HEAVY HEAVY documentary that tracks the Gary Webb story that three administrations have tried to keep hidden.


If you want to know what REALLY happened and why it all leads up to everything happening today - Turn on BET now. This is a VERY UNUSUAL subject matter for BROADCAST TV who has been noticeably ignoring the entire story .

5. I know what you mean !

I pray America is finally waking up to the reality that sociopathic criminals are running this country! Then maybe we can finally find out who really is responsible for sep.t 11th!

[blm]

9. No doubt what happened on 9-11 is rooted in these stories and that is why

IranContra, BCCI and CIA drugrunning tend to be forbidden topics by mainstream media and the establishment DC set who ALWAYS fought against those who forced the revelations.

14. Their attitude is, "We've taken care of the problem - you have no need to know anything

more than that." The problem is, they never take down the top guys, the ones protected by plausible deniability. It's always the same ones, over and over, again.

A big part of the problem is that you also have the same guys -- veteran cover-up artists, like Lee Hamilton and Arlen Specter -- who are appointed to run the official investigations, along with the same old cast of characters manning the commissions -- useful idiots, like Chuck Robb -- over and over again.

Anyone who questions this system is branded a "conspiracy theorist", and those who seriously challenge it -- the Gary Webbs -- are dealt with harshly.

10. I was just posting a few days ago about how Reagan played sides of the drug war.

He enacted draconian anti-drug laws and pretended to be some kind of anti-drug champion, but his minions were running drugs at the same time.

15. More Poppy's minions than Reagan's - and they were the biggest drugrunners in the world.

11. for those of us who don't do media

What is BET? (I know, I'm probably totally out of it but I haven't watched tv since 2000.) Is there a web site we can find out something more about this documentary? Thanks.

16. Thanks for the tip, but BET is not broadcast TV.

It's only available with cable or satellite subscriptions.

I'll have to wait for it to come up on YouTube, I guess.

[blm]

17. I should have said broadcast cable - you can get clips from BET's site, though.

18. Excellent! I'm really interested. n/t

19. Is that the same as THIS American Gangster?

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0765429/

Plot Outline: A drug lord smuggles heroin into Harlem during the 1970s by hiding the stash inside the coffins of American soldiers returning from Vietnam.

If so the movie is coming out in 2007 and has Denzel Washington in it. That should get some attn!

[blm]

21. No -BET's American Gangster is a documentary that tracks IranContra cocaine that

that, along with firearms, were being dumped heavily in the inner cities in the 80s.

Sanctioned by our government and especially Poppy Bush. Clinton helped him cover it up when the story broke wide in the mid90s.

22. kick..

24. You're kidding - wow - I hope this can spread. BET may keep running it if people ask, too.

The more chances people have to see it, the wider the word will spread.
