  • What might appear to be a simple case of smuggling conceals a deeper geopolitical interpretation. It is difficult to believe that European intelligence services, which rigorously monitor arms trafficking, would ignore this flow into the Americas. The most disturbing hypothesis is that the European high command, under unofficial orders, is permitting these transactions in order to inflame tensions on the southern border of the United States.

    it’s even harder to imagine that the CIA isn’t already aware of this development given the clearly intentional blind eye they’ve given to the cartels for purchasing american made military grade weapons despite it being illegal to do so. (and let’s not forget that they also created the school of the americas).

    Why can such a conclusion be reached? Europeans themselves do not hide their anger toward the United States. Recently, the EU’s foreign policy chief, Kaja Kallas, accused the US of wanting to weaken and “divide Europe.” Kallas asserted that the US “doesn’t like us being together because we become a power equal to them when we unite.” In this context, the diversion of weapons to the cartels could be a silent act of retaliation.

    this postulation feels like a redirection since we already know that trump is going to seek another win from latin america because of iran and he’s already signaled that he wants an armed conflict with mexico.

    that’s the really crazy part about all of it; if you have more than 2 paycheck sitting in the bank, then you’re already in the top 33%.

    and if your bank balance is measure in five figures on top of that (w the first number being higher than 2); then you’re automatically in the global top 10%. (and an overwhelming majority in this class are trump supporters. lol)
