The Cover-Up: How Was Movement from Phase I to Phase II Justified?

[Cliff Varnell]

At the level Cliff would illuminate, international narco trafficking is controlled and weaponized to destroy or support economic systems, wreak havoc within cultures, and otherwise serve the larger agendas of the Great Game's players.

Indeed.

Heroin is ready-made weaponized. Cocaine had to be developed into crack in order to be weaponized.

Some people think LSD was weaponized in the 60's but I heartily disagree.

Wasn't alcohol weaponized against Native Americans?

The coke Castro may have been smuggling in the '60's and '70's wasn't fueling any epidemics and wasn't destablizing any societies. It would have been about the dollars for Fidel.

Cocaine in the 80's was far more "political."

Or as Cliff himself states it: "I think the post WW 2 urban American heroin epidemic and the crack epidemic of the 80's were engineered as A Holocaust By Another Means."

If Castro were facilitating a significant portion of the trafficking, his actions were sanctioned and folded into a far grander scheme.

A re-ordering to the world's narcotics market. In order to maximize profits in the drug trade there is a constant effort to eliminate as many middle-men as possible. Batista may have become a very expensive middle-man in the eyes of some. Maybe they saw Castro as a less expensive prospective partner, and financed his revolution in the hills with the aim of replacing Batista with someone less demanding.

Do you believe that Castro would have a better chance of surviving independent action than JFK had? I submit that Cuba's government-controlled narcotráfico -- if it existed/exists as Cliff would describe it -- was/is conducted at the command of the same forces that took out JFK.

The Jupiter Island Gang. W. Averell Harriman and his long-time family retainer, Prescott Bush (whose son George was a snot-nosed paper pusher who did what he was told).

The deep political lessons of Dallas were not lost on Castro.

In other words, regardless of what certain Facilitators and Mechanics of the JFK assassination conspiracy were led to believe pre-hit, Castro was far more valuable alive as Cuba's head-of-state than dead or in exile.

Hence his survival and that of his regime.

Before the JFK assassination, Castro was vulnerable. Afterwards, not at all. That he played ball with elite-level narco-trafficking is as reasonable an explanation as any, imo.
