There is a well-documented history of the U.S. government supplying weapons and arms to both friends and foe for political purposes and for profit. In addition to publicly known global arms deals to U.S. political allies like Israel and Saudi Arabia, revelations about the rise of ISIS indicate that U.S. arms and military trainees have been a critical factor in the rise of the terror group.
From 2006 to 2011 the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms ran a gun smuggling operation into Mexico to ostensibly dismantle Mexican drug gangs, accomplishing the precise opposite, however, in what has affectionately become known as Fast and Furious. Further back in time we have covert operations like Oliver North’s Iran Contra scandal of the mid 1980s, and America’s involvement in arming rebels in Central America to destabilize uncooperative governments. The list goes on.
Furthermore, it is alleged that the CIA, DEA and other government agencies have been involved for decades in the destruction of American communities by covertly shipping in drugs. Former DEA agent Cele Castillo has been persecuted by the U.S. government for seeking accountability of the George H.W. Bush administration for drug smuggling into the U.S. He would know as he was directly involved.
Former L.A. police narcotics officer Michael Ruppert alleged in the mid-1990s that the CIA was directly involved in running drugs throughout the Unites States, corroborating information presented in the book, Dark Alliance, by investigative journalist Gary Webb whose death in 1994 by two gunshot wounds to the head was deemed a suicide. Michael Ruppert committed suicide in 2014.
“I will tell you, Director Deutch,” Ruppert said, “emphatically and without equivocation that the agency has dealt drugs throughout this country for a long time.” ~Mike Ruppert
‘Freeway’ Ricky Ross was California’s most successful drug kingpin during the explosion of the crack epidemic in the 1980s, and later implicated the CIA as the source for cocaine. Presidents Reagan, Bush Sr. and Bill Clinton are all implicated in the revelations of drug-running in the U.S. during the ’80s an ’90s in Mena, Arkansas, which also links the Arkansas State Police to smuggling, culminating in the suspicious murder of Vince Foster.
Again, the list goes on and on; however, with the recent rise of violence in Chicago involving over 3000 shooting victims in 2016 so far (January 1st to September 13th), it appears that another case of U.S. sponsored gun-smuggling and intentional destruction of inner-city communities may be at play.
In a publicly available video testimony an ex-Chicago gang member describes how crates of fully automatic firearms would regularly be found in alleyways and backstreets of urban Chicago at the early hours of the morning, giving free, illegal weapons to the gangs of Chi-Town, which is now often referred to as Chiraq because it is a war zone.
He refers to it as a diabolical plot, a plan, affecting only low-income areas, pointing out that many of the firearms being found were class-3 automatic firearms, which can only be purchased at certain retailers under intense federal scrutiny. He notes that criminals aren’t allowed to buy firearms in the first place, yet the guns are everywhere, so where are they coming from?
Watch the full interview here:
BBC News recently produced a short documentary about gun violence in Chicago with gang members saying things such as, “it’s like crates of guns got dropped off.”
Chicago has some of the strictest gun restrictions in the United States with some of the highest rates of gun violence. Gang members are not buying them legally, and the police are pulling guns off the street on a daily basis, so where are they coming from?
Something doesn’t add up.

Wow! what an article.
Depopulation… a few hundred at a time…
Always be a light that is shininginthedark
I could use a couple of crates.
And just how many actual FULL AUTOS have turned up? I call B.S.
Have you seen the murder rate in Shltcago recently?
yes, but no FULL autos.
Bullshyt.
Just trying to stir pot
It is just Obama doing his old community organizing like the POS he has always been!
2.
he just told you he was in it in the 90’s. now il say since emanual has been mayor the situation has got worst. this happened with the black panther’s in california. along with the drug’s. this is about the military industrial complex. now ask your self why did the doj start closing private prison’s lol.
Or, is this admin arming BLM for the upcoming election?
Always ask, Qui Bono?, Who Benefits?
Is some gang arming 2 rival gangs against each other?
Is someone buying-up Chicago real estate at fire sale prices due to the current violence?
How would the guy in the video benefit if the story is just Okie Doke i.e. truthful as the Laughingstock-in-Chief?
Someone, somewhere is getting something out of this.
I wouldnt be suprised if Chicago and Flint, MI were being bought up by real estate investors. Gotta follow the money…
Ohhhh my………what a surprise !
Smells like B.S.
Crates of automatic weapons?
Hmmm, maybe they’ll leave nukes next?
The gubmint has been doing this for years with drugs so this doesn’t surprise me in the least.
dems annihilate inner city communities by giving murderers the tools they need to rip apart the residents,
what is black reaction? vote for more of the same
Why are you assuming the Democrats are responsible? Obama doesn’t run the CIA, nor is it a historically liberal organization. Just curious how you came to that conclusion.
do you just listen to limbaighu and run to the comment sections? Who’s the real sheep?
i guess you listen to babs streisand
Good comeback bro…
Obama has been trying for eight years now to start a civil war, or an uprising so he could call a lock down on the nation. This is all part of their machinations to bring the US down.
Barach Obama and his Rothchild/Jesuit satanist Banker masters that direct him, need to be EXECUTED for subversion, robbery and murder of the American People. And EVERY little INSTALLED concubine along the way. This includes the traitor group known as the CIA. The JESUIT arm that also murdered JFK. The Bankers control America through their Federal Reserve and IRS.
Off-topic, but do you know of any wholesale stores for tin foil? I’ve been running low and I’m looking for a good deal. You seem like you’d know.
Until we can find a way to make it profitable to end arms sales and hold politicians accountable for all manner of corruption, nothing will change. I bet that tickets for CCTV arrests, trials and convictions would sell like hotcakes though. The banks and lawyers still do well, hmm…
Perhaps a reality TV series where we put them all in an arena to sell each other out or fight to the death. You KNOW that would get unprecedented ratings…
The guy has a point about the acquisition of firearms and ammo, particularly by juveniles and known felons. Even very gun friendly jurisdictions have many rules & regs and some things are basically unavailable without extreme scrutiny.
I recommend that, Instead of shooting each other with found guns, the folks in these communities should take the approach of disclosing in photos and videos and such these mysterious crates of guns. Or, they could stop shooting each other and use the guns in self-defense against those that would do them and their communities harm. Either way, my guess is that the crates of guns would quickly stop getting dropped off in these communities.
That’s a nice sentiment, but it’s not exactly how the real world works. Crime thrives due to a combination of poverty and prohibition. Minimizing/erasing those factors is the only way to stop the violence, and no amount of wishful thinking will change that, unfortunately.
Wishful thinking? Do explain. I explicated some concrete action items for folks in these communities to deal with the issue of crates of guns being dropped off. It seems as if you are dealing with the theories of “poverty and prohibition” and not dealing with “how the real world works.”
You seem to think these decades-old problems will simply disappear if everyone in the community were to fundamentally and inexplicably change the way they behave, completely independently of the socieconomic factors that have forced them to behave the way they do in the first place. Poverty breeds crime, across the board, regardless of race/ethnicity/culture/etc. It’s sociology 101. Drug prohibition creates a dangerous underground market due to the illegal nature of the trade. Put those factors together, and you’ve got a bad situation that can’t be solved by just hoping or assuming the people in these communities will suddenly “change their minds.” These are systemic problems that require systemic solutions.
I’m against drug prohibition. That being said, the laws don’t need to change in order for folks in these communities to turn the tables on their oppressors. Crates of guns, dealt with in either of the manners I described previously could be extremely empowering to these communities instead of a scourge. Think a little harder and give these folks a little more credit. Geez…
You make some good points. However, I have to wonder then, why isn’t most of Appalachia experiencing the same issues? Most of the old coal towns destroyed by liberalism couldn’t get any lower on the socioeconomic ladder.
Please comprehend the article. Drugs and guns are not being shipped into Appalachia.
The “real world” is run by duly elected factions of crime bosses. Trump proposes to take it down. No small feat and, as previously stated, backed by trillions of dollars of illicit taxpayer debt. Examine that which conquerers accomplished previously. SARS as a test, EBOLA eliminated with hard work and “Zika” manufactured by CIA operatives in South America with GMO mosquitoes and funded by Obama, Trudeau and even Wynne, premier of a province with the highest debt ever for a sub sovereign oligarchy. Trudeau has shipped off millions to foreign nations and embraces the founders of Sharia above the people he purports to represent. Wynne chooses to fund China while mired in debt while people see their electricity shut off due to over extension of prices paid to “green” suppliers and pay off selected businesses with subsidies to determine economic growth. Trudeau too! look at the CBC and Bombardier, Canadians aren’t stupid but we sure are dumb!
Disgusting? Absolutely.
Surprising? Not in the least.
It’s Obama and the wicked left’s diabolical version of the old Urban Renewal program(s) only this one starts with (new) people first instead of buildings…
The CIA has no relation to what you’re referring to. Please educate yourself.
The CIA sold crack cocaine in the ghettoes of LA and Chicago. Please educate yourself. This story is not implausible just because you choose to not believe it.
You’re misunderstanding me. I believe the account described by the article, not the other commenter’s assertion that Obama and the liberals are responsible. I’m pretty sure we’re in agreement.
I would agree with that. Oh and I’m educated though I’m failing to see anything where I wrote about the CIA in that post. Thinking about old ghost’s huh??
The article is about the CIA arming street gangs. You’re blaming Obama and the “wicked left” for it instead, which implies you either didn’t read the article or didn’t understand it.
Did this start big time when Obama’s buddy Rahm Emanuel became mayor. Check and see all part of the plan.
Please post a video of some of the “Crates of Guns” lying in the streets in Chicago, otherwise it’s a big pile of bullshit….
No kidding. Everybody, no matter how ignorant, knows how to cam and post to YouTube.
“otherwise it’s a big pile of bullshit….”
thats what i said about de plane that hit the pentagon, show me the video of more than just 5 frames from one of the many cameras at the pentagon, otherwise it’s a big pile of bullshit….
also considering 9/11 was an inside job, why not a few crates of free guns to the criminals to stir the pot while they’re at it.. not implausible in the least.
Add Sandy Hook to that inside job list…
With the amount of times we have armed proxy armies and sent weapons to violent groups of militants, you think its bullshit?
All Black Rifles Matter!
I live right outside the city on the west side, and go to work at zero dark thirty in the morning. I gotta take a little detour down some alleys on the way to work…gibs me summa dat!
I call top bunk.
Why would this happen? For the same reason as fast and furious, the subversives behind it are trying to build public outrage to sway opinion in favor of gun control. The goal is to take away the second ammendment.
The purpose of this is to perpetuate the ghettoization of Black Americans, drive up prison corporation profits, and to reinforce the misguided idea that gun control won’t work. I’m not sure how you drew the opposite conclusion.
This is akin to that original Star Trek series episode of the alien entity putting swords on the Klingon and Federation starships. All just to get them to fight each other.
Just another false flag.
Street Gangs and the Myth that People are Killing Themselves Out of Ignorance
There is a myth that is taught through the media and local governments that people are out shooting each other for no apparent reason. Unfortunately, the people are taught to repeat these beliefs. Here’s why this lie is necessary. There is an underground economy and there is a lot of money being passed in it.
It’s called drugs and the competition of fighting to maintain it, the need to fight for areas/ territories within communities. This is the same thing that happened in the United States during the prohibition era. Alcohol was the illegal drug of choice.
The law enforcement communities benefits from it, the bank industry (through money laundering) benefits, the Auto dealerships benefits, guns/weapons manufacturers, dealers and gun shows, benefits, the high level drug trafficking that moves drugs into the hands of neighborhood gangs (who don’t have the ability/ technology to get drugs from manufacturers to the street level) and of course guns/ weapons that are brought through the suburbs and into urban areas. Strangely they avoid law enforcement.
Then there’s the profit prison industry who benefits by keeping this process going and the lawyers who profit from this drug system.
So the issue was never about people killing each other for no reason, it’s about drugs and how local and state authorities, profit prisons, the military and individuals in and outside of these communities are making money.
Drugs laws need to be changed and ‘ALL’ of the profiteers must be arrested, prosecuted and imprison for running the higher end of these social structures.
This is why there is no rush to end the killings in the United States, Mexico, Afghanistan or anywhere else.
Plausible except for the ‘gun shows.’
Been to about a hundred of them, and they are attended by a good crowd of retired/current law enforcement, and retired/current military.
Haven’t seen ‘Homey da clown’ and his band of feral merry men hanging out at ’em.
No, these are average folk buying gun and selling them in urban areas. And yes, many of them are, retired/current law enforcement, and retired/current military. They are trying to make money, they’re not exempt. I happen to have first hand knowledge. I also know that law enforcement communities are fully aware of it. So you missed the point.
Hmmmm.
Maybe.
Perhaps you could post a .jpg of ticket stub from a gun show held within the city limits of ‘Chiraq’ in the last say, fifty years?
There aren’t any as I bet you know, but there are plenty of them in the surrounding area outside the city and the state. Chicago’s laws can’t touch that in spite of how good they are.
Dude if you knew the people that go to gun shows you would know how rediculous that is. Most vendors know the clients personally, and some dude who isnt well known and wants twenty glocks and twenty AR-15s, would be an instant red flag. most people buy one or two and go home.
Definitely has some validity, except for the gun show point. There is no way gun shows could account for the amount of weapons on the street. Even the gangs arent sure where they come from. This to me seems like the government is arming them.
The United States is still the best last place to be because of the people and the constitution that the founders knew they would need!
A) The thugs are killing off each other so I could give a crap;
B) Most of them couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn in a real gunfight with a semi-auto weapon, let alone a full auto (held sideways? max kek!)
C) Outside of their ghettos they are out gunned 8:1 by people who know the meaning of “One shot, one kill.”
Y’all wanna bring the monkeyshines? Make sure to bring plenty of body bags. This White Man is all outta gimmiedats.
I’d call you a racist, but you’d probably deny it even though you literally said “monkeyshines”.
Remember whom the Mayor is…..
I’d love to find a crate full of guns, and a crate full of ammo to go with it. You can keep the drugs, though, because those are bad for you.
Lol “drugs are bad but guns aren’t” Wow you’re delusional
Guns have lots of legitimate uses, first and foremost as a tool of self defense against criminal thugs, but also recreational and sporting uses. Recreational drugs are recreational only, hence the name. I’d rather have a crateful of guns and ammo than a crateful of cocaine and heroin because I do guns but I don’t do recreational drugs. Of course others have their own priorities. Nice try, though. Do spin again.
Guns have killed way more people than drugs have. That’s a fact. Ever consider why guns even have “legitimate” uses in the first place? Maybe because every other moron has one tucked away in their pickup? Guns don’t make you safe, especially if youre a woman or minority. Read some statistics.
Guns have killed way more people who were guilty and dangerous and deserved to die than drugs have. I consider a heroin overdose to be a sad tragedy and an undeserved though not an unexpected death. When a burglar gets shot in the head during the commission of his crime, he has it coming. This is called moral context. And women and minorities need guns to defend themselves a lot more than white men do, statistically, don’t they? Or are you trying to tell me that it’s white men, statistically, who are running around shooting and murdering women and minorities? Why don’t YOU read some statistics, genius?
once whitey is genocided and out of the picture, the Js can easily control the rest. they’ll strafe the fk out of these nests.
I believe it. I’ve long suspected released felons get so easily these Eric Holder $50 specials, while mine costs me $500.
Arms are the USA’s #1 export. This very profitable venture began after WWII and when other countries started seeing how profitable it was, they jumped on the money boat. This is the “gun control” we should be discussing, not the propaganda put out by the government and their lackeys in the media.
Good post. Its a shame no one else thought so…
A major problem here is ammo. With 5.56 and .223 reaching 40ȼ and more per round (not to mention .308), it’s going to be pricey doing a mag dump in the neighborhood. I think even the gangsters don’t have that kind of discretionary income. So are the Class III weapons coming with ammo?
Did you watch the video? The guns came with ammo.
Did mommy just teach you some new words? Those are just for grown-ups, you know.
No gun zone with 3000 people shot how does the government let this happen it’s a business
money trump’s peace that tell’s it all
Show us the video of a crate of guns. Turn one over to the cops so they can trace the serial numbers. Stake out the neighborhood and video the vehicles doing this, and turn that over to the cops and also post it on YouTube and FB so the world sees. Hard proof is needed, and with the cops taking 5,000+ guns off the streets every year, how hard can it be to get it and be the hero who exposed the crime against the neighborhoods? GET THE EVIDENCE AND SHARE IT WITH THE WORLD, TALK IS CHEAP.
And the liberal gun control bastards have been working for years to disarm law-abiding Americans, claiming that by disarming them, criminals are somehow denied access to firearms. It would be bad enough to live in Chicago or one of the other crime cesspools in this country, but to live there, unarmed and helpless because the government kept you that way by means of strict gun control laws or gun bans would be even worse. As far as places like THE PEOPLES’ REPUBLIC OF CALIFORNIA are concerned, I”ll steer clear of the place. California honors no other states’ concealed carry permit and one cannot even take an unloaded gun into the state without permission from the government of California. Tourists with out of state plates would probably be the first ones targeted by state police for a vehicle search.
Anyway, it doesn’t surprise me the U.S. government has been arming street thugs. Both it and the Chicago city fathers feel a need to create a rationale for disarming citizens and/or calling for tougher gun laws.
HANG this CRAP scumbag!
taxpayer funded unaccountable corrupt govt employee labor unions
I must say it one more time. I have been suspicious ever since Rahm “left” Obammy for an appointment to Chicago(I don’t believe he was elected). He is there for a reason. Another way for the CIA/Dems to make some “dark money” at taxpayer expense?
