The American Deep State

Here is a preview of Peter Dale Scott's new book The American Deep State:

In the last decade it has become more and more obvious that we have in America today what the journalists have called … America’s “deep state.”

This expansion of a two-level or dual state has been paralleled by two other dualities: the increasing resolution of American society into two classes—the “one percent” and the “ninety-nine percent”—and the bifurcation of the U.S. economy into two aspects: the domestic, still subject to some governmental regulation and taxation, and the international, relatively free from governmental controls.

By the way, Scott has no problem speaking openly about CIA's role in drug trafficking:

The CIA never abandoned its dependency on funds from outside its official budget to conduct its clandestine operations. In Southeast Asia in particular, its proprietary firm Sea Supply Inc. supplied an infrastructure for a drug traffic supporting a CIA-led paramilitary force, PARU. [Two CIA proprietaries, Sea Supply Inc. and Civil Air Transport (CAT) Inc. (later Air America), initially supplied the KMT 93rd Division in Burma that organized opium mule trains down to Thailand, where opium sales were still legal.

Later, when the USG officially distanced itself from the KMT drug army, the CIA organized an offensive and defensive paramilitary unit, PARU, inside the Thai Border Police (BPP). Like the BPP, PARU financed itself by seizing KMT opium and turning it in to the Thai Government, receiving a bounty payment of 12.5 percent of the retail value.]

The fact that America's MSM attacked Gary Webb when he wrote the "Dark Alliance" series appears to confirm not only that CIA wields great influence in the media but also that its drug trafficking income and immunity from prosecution has turned it into a monster which no government can even hope to control.

By the way, does it not seem like one of the primary motivations of the deep state is greed? We may have believed long ago that American greed had a tendency to "trickle down" and benefit the masses, but we've had almost 35 years of experience to the contrary. The deep state is destroying our nation, and the process is nearly complete. The popular revolution which some people keep talking about is never going to happen.
