Not that al-Kassar is squeaky clean as this so-called Prince of Marbella played a pivotal role in the Pentagon’s arms for hostages scandal, where the American and not the Soviet government was shown to be up to its eyeballs in cocaine deals with Latin American terrorists and where the CIA hounded Gary Webb, a good, great and heroic American journalist, to his death for exposing to the world their collusion with criminal cocaine cartels.
A recent Sunday World global exclusive claimed that NATO’s leading drug cartels have aligned “with Putin and Iran” because they have run out of other options. NATO’s cocaine cartel chiefs, the exclusive claims, “have become bed-fellows with the Russian and Iranian regimes – offering up their transport routes and South American cocaine suppliers in exchange for sanctuary.”
Because the cartel leaders are gradually losing their safe haven in the United Arab Emirates, the exclusive claims that there is now “a black-hearted triangle of terror between cocaine cartels and forces in Russia and Iran intent on destroying the West”.
Russia, “Putin’s homeland”, the Sunday World claims, might offer these ruthless, two timing gangsters “a final sanctuary from Europe and the U.S., who have joined forces to eliminate them.”
As things currently stand, these gangsters “are actively moving tonnes of cocaine across the globe on behalf of the mafia states [of Russia, Iran et al], who have been exploiting their transport routes and contacts as they raise funds to fight their wars”.
These gangsters “are so deeply embedded with both regimes [Russia and Iran] that they are now enemies of the Western World”, not least because they work closely with “agents within the Soviet Military Intelligence wing, the GRU” in co-ordinating their nefarious activities.
The Syrian and Venezuelan Connections
The exclusive goes on to tell us that “for years, the GRU had used a Syrian drug lord based in Marbella, Monzer Al Kassar, as an arms and cocaine dealer to supply both them and Iran” and that “the Kinahan organisation has been participating in drug deliveries with the GRU since at least 2019” and that many of the cocaine shipments set sail from sanctioned Venezuela. As the Kinahans had also occasionally tweeted against “U.S. President Joe Biden and his son Hunter”, it seems to be case closed, all the more so as, according to the exclusive, Hezbollah are also in on the act.
Although Italy’s National anti-Mafia prosecutor Gianni Melillo is correct to state that “the connections between drug trafficking, money laundering and terrorism financing processes are visible at various latitudes; from Latin America to the Middle East, from Pakistan to Afghanistan to the Balkans, from Libya to Western and Sub Saharan Africa,” that is no proof or indication that Russia, Iran, Venezuela, Hezbollah or Syria have any hand, act or part in this gigantic business, which would expose them to considerable reputational and other risks without the sort of NATO protection Italy’s Giulio Andreotti long enjoyed.
To begin with Syria, not only have I already covered NATO’s drug smears against them in my earlier article but, because Monzer al-Kassar has been incarcerated from 2009 in Marion Medium Security Prison in Illinois, with a 2033 release date, he is innocent of the collusion charges this garbage article concerns itself with.
