Part Il In November 1986, America's most decorated Vietnam war hero was sent into the notorious "Golden Triangle" to report on missing U.S. prisoners of war. He returned with evidence of U.S. State Department and C.I.A. involvement in heroin trafficking - ona scale unheard of in criminal history. This the second and final article on U.S. government involvement in the world's biggest industry - Drugs Incorporated! ell, not so. Guess who shows up in Time Magazine? H. W Ross Perot ... and he’s on page 18, May 4th and it says, “Perot’s Private Probes.” H. Ross Perot was not in Burma with me, but | know now where he got his info. Four billion dollars opens a lot of doors for you. It didn’t open a couple of doors, howev- er, as Ill let you in on this story. H. Ross Perot had gained US agent investigation reports of Richard Armitage. Perot didn’t know I was over in Burma. He was doing this on his own. This article said he pinned Richard Armitage. Armitage is a fat broad, literally. This is a giant of a man. And it demanded that Armitage resign because it says that H. Ross Perot accused him of being an a drug smuggler and an arms dealer. That takes pretty big cajones. (laughter) It says that Perot then went to his friend, George Bush. It says that he gave evidence of wrong doing by Armitage. I’m quoting. Bush told Perot to go to the proper authorities. (sounds of shock and dismay by audience) I’m still reading now. So the billionaire called on William Webster. He’s now head of the CIA. It says that Perot made at least one visit to the White House car- tying a pile of documents, yet he has received no support from the Reagan administration. In fact Frank Carlucci... who’s he? He’s the Secretary of Defence. And who was he before? Deputy directory of Central Intelligence. Frank Carlucci called him in to ask him to stop pursuing Armitage. Talk about insulation! And when four billion dol- lars can’t even get your foot in the door even though the man is a good Texan from Houston. Tell me there’s no cover-up here. Now H. Ross Perot was working on his own, he didn’t know what Khun Sa had told us. Khun Sa doesn’t have a television or a tele- phone, he doesn’t know who Richard Armitage is. He doesn’t give a damn. All he knows is the people who are on his records that he’s dealt with. This affidavit though by a man by the name of Daniel Sheehan ... and you’ll recognise Sheehan’s name if you don’t know him already by the Silkwood case. They won the Silkwood case there in Oklahoma and have done a few other things. [Switch to a talk-show interview with Daniel Sheehan] Sheehan: “There's litte doubt at all that President Reagan was involved in a conspiracy to violate the Neutrality Act. He’s been directly ordered by the United States Congress not to mount this military operation against Nicaragua. They've cut off all funds for him to do so, but he went to Saudi Arabia and various private citizens to raise the money in total violation of the Federal Neutrality Act. They're engaged in violations of the arms-export control act. They're engaged in violations of the Federal Racketeering Act. There is a whole federal racketeering syndi- cate that they like to refer to as ‘The Enterprise’, which is what Richard Secord referred to it as. But what it is in fact, Jim, is the off-the-shelf, stand-alone, self-financing, covert operations capacity that Oliver North talked about Bill Casey wanting to set up. Fact is, that it has been set up. Its been operating for many years now. Out from under the control of any president. Out from under the control of the director of Central Intelligence. Out from under the supervision of any intelligence committee. Drugs Incorporated! The following is extracted from a transcript of the video "A Nation Betrayed", featuring Lt. Col.
