Most of us when faced with a disturbing truth we would rather live in denial than act on it, specifically, when it requires stepping outside of our comfort zone. What Barry Seal failed to realize during all of this, is that the CIA real interest in Barry Seal was NOT to traffic drugs for arms as much as it was to fulfill a mission to track and protect the steerage of the trillion dollar black economy currency, cash holdings, that is a traded commodity amongst financial institutions, flowing into and out of the Cartels.
The economy of the nation and the fate of the free world hung in the balance as the Cold War was really a war of finance. Not the war of contrary ideologies, Capitalism vs Communism, as we are led to believe by which to be further manipulated. The Top Secret role of the DEA in the big picture scheme of things is not the eradication of drug trafficking. The DEA serves the strategic purpose of centralizing the black economy by thinning out the hordes of illicit small drug business entrepreneurs and thus, keep the bulk of cash manageable and moving in the right direction.
Put strategically in place to make sure DEA activities actually did not contaminate the big picture strategy, the drugs for arms trafficking operations of the CIA, that is Iran Contra-gate, etc. With Honduras being a staging area for narco-Contra activity, this is why the DEA office there is inexplicably closed. In documentaries US forces in Afghanistan voice their concerns over how certain people may produce and harvest opium poppy that ultimately is headed to the US and EU countries, while the are told they must be aggressive in eradicating others crops.
Human trafficking is being dealt with in the same manner. Until , at least 47 independent cartels exist dedicated to human smuggling and human trafficking operated in Mexico. However, with the emergence of Los Zetas as an independent cartel in and the empowerment of the Cartel Del Golfo CDG in the last five years, the smaller cartels have been absorbed or destroyed, producing a dramatic change in the dynamics of human trafficking and human smuggling in the country.
Human trafficking is on its way to being globally monopolized. It is a far more lucrative criminal enterprise considering sex can be sold over and over again unlike a kilo of cocaine the cartel can sell only once. For a fee or equity in an Investment enterprise , ill gotten gains are made clean, leveraged and circulated back into the community, stimulating economic growth and jobs β it bolsters the transparent economy.
