Two CIA Agents Arrested by Minutemen while Crossing Mexican Border with 1300 Pounds of CocaineThis discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Omaha Steve (a host of the General Discussion forum). El Paso| A group of minutemen watching the Mexican Border for illegal migrants and drug traffickers, have proceeded to the citizen arrest of two men in an SUV, carrying 1300 pounds of cocaine. The volunteers were completely astonished when the two arrestees pulled out CIA ID cards and explained they were actually carrying the drug as part of their duties and that the cargo belonged to the Central Intelligence Agency. The incident took place last night, in the Chihuahuan desert, near the Texan city of El Paso. A group of seven minutemen saw a large black SUV drive rapidly across the border. They chased the vehicle in their own trucks and achieved to immobilize it after a chase of more than 15 miles. The vigilantes arrested the two men on board and called the border patrol, who proceeded to search the vehicle. They discovered dozens of packages of cocaine, totaling an incredible 618.4 kilograms (1363 pounds). The search of the vehicle revealed 36 packages of cocaine, all marked with the symbol of the Sinaloa Cartel, representing a black scorpion. The two men claim to be CIA operatives based in Mexico and explained that the drug was actually part of an operation of the agency. They presented identity cards that seem to validate their claim, but the CIA spokesperson, Dean Boyd, has officially denied any link between the organization and the two men. “The CIA doesn’t take part in drug smuggling operations at the US-Mexican border” said M. Boyd. “I do not know, for now, if the men are actually affiliated to the agency in any way, but I can tell you the cocaine doesn’t belong to the CIA.” (Ollie North should be rofl by now!) Both the border patrol officers and minutemen seem unconvinced, however, and many of them seem to believe that the secret service agency is hiding something. The U.S. custom services have even announced a thorough investigation to try and verify the two men’s story. “Both of them had valid accreditations and a receipt for their cargo” says Shawn Francis Miller, spokesman of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection for the El Paso sector. “What drug dealer in his right mind, demands a receipt for 1300 pounds of cocaine? There is really something strange about these guys, and we believe the CIA possibly knows more than what it is ready to admit.” The custom services have confirmed that the two men, who can’t be identified due to the Intelligence Identities and Protection Act of 1982, did carry valid CIA identifications and that the vehicle was indeed registered as a service vehicle of the organization. The two men remain under the custody of the custom services at the moment, and are still being interrogated in a facility near El Paso. They are facing charges of possessing, trafficking and importing illegal drugs, and could face other criminal charges once the investigation is over. Both the FBI and the DEA have announced that they would collaborate with the U.S. Customs and Border Protection on this case, which as already attracted a lot of attention in Southern Texas.

One of the team members even had the luck of taking a cellphone snapshot of the beast before it rushed back into the jungle. |

They get this nugget every so often in circulation. This time around, they nabbed CNN, Proceso and Reforma. They can write better than these guys. These are part of a very large fear cottage industry. Just alerting you. For the record, I saw it on my FB feed, since I do follow (and subscribe) to Proceso. After the laughter was over, I passed on even running a debunking story of this crap. Another publication did though, but in my mind that was giving them far more credit than necessary. The story you posted has way too many red flags. The biggest is the photo of the ID. I go to pressers regularly, and I have yet to see a PIO pulling that stunt. If they were CIA, like for real, you would not hear of it. And for the record, we have had the CIA trafficking drugs in South East LA. https://oig.justice.gov/special/9712/ch01p1.htm The reporter who went there, his career was destroyed and 20 years later we are finding out he was correct. |

49. Veterans Today? Really?
Citing a holocaust denying rag hardly helps your cause.
Veterans Today (VT) is a website that bills itself as a “military veterans and foreign affairs journal.” And, indeed, many of its contributors are military veterans or veterans’ advocates from across the political spectrum. VT also offers some information about veterans’ benefits (lifted from the Veterans’ Administration) and links to home and other loans for vets. But start reading the posts, and you’ll find something else entirely: myriad claims that there was a conspiracy behind 9/11 (Israel orchestrated it, in cahoots with the American government), that the American government is a puppet (of Israel), that the Holocaust never happened or was greatly exaggerated (Jews made it up to manipulate non-Jews), and, most recently, that Julian Assange, the man behind Wikileaks, is a pawn (of Israel). Notice a theme? Gordon Duff, the senior editor and chairman of the board at VT, is a prolific proponent of these anti-Israel conspiracy theories, including the Wikileaks claims. Though he does occasionally write on issues and policies that directly affect American veterans (he claims to be a Marine Vietnam veteran), most of his ammo is reserved for churning out articles that claim 9/11 was a U.S./Israel conspiracy and that Israel controls the U.S. government. According to Duff and VT contributors like author and attorney Jeff Gates, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), a civil rights watchdog group, and the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), a lobbying group, are Zionist-controlled fronts for Israeli intelligence operations. http://www.splcenter.org/blog/2011/01/06/buyer-beware-veterans-today-and-its-anti-israel-agenda/ |

60. Ahh the media is all there so this can't be true, unless they fail to report what you know to be
true?
I have a retired fed in my family. I cannot divulge. But this shit goes on all the time. You only consider the source? What research have you done? |

56. Yes, and I'm equally concerned about where our 'black money' comes from for CIA to use.
Then how much makes it into our poor neighborhoods, for their dime, even when it keeps them impoverished.

61. So much so that you post from a satire site in the OP and follow it up with a holocaust denial site?
You understand that the place you cited your OP information from is a satire site like the Onion, right?

66. I guess this is humor.
I must be in a bad mood. It does not seem very funny to me. Why is this on the front page?

67. It would work as humor. But OP seems to be vociferously defending it as truth. nt

69. The site is fiction. The person who posted it doesn't believe that.
