Crafting A Cartel, Part II

“The average person is handicapped when coming face to face with a CONSPIRACY so monstrous he cannot believe it exists.”

— J. Edgar Hoover, FBI Director (1924-1972), 33° Freemason

Crafting A Cartel, Part I

Scipio Eruditus · Aug 15

The lines between an intelligence agency, a secret society, and an organized criminal enterprise are almost distinctions without a difference at this point. As I have discussed in Part I, this relationship goes way beyond the practicalities of life on the edge. Indeed, the broader agenda of the Mystery religion has been knowingly advanced through the coordination of these powerful entities: one bloody hand washing the other. Each of these groups is so hopelessly entwined with the other at this point it is nearly impossible to truly discern the dividing line betwixt them.

The symbiotic relationship between the mafia, Masonry, the moneylenders, and the Mystery religion is at the heart of so many of societies true epidemics. From drug overdoses, to homosexuality, to illegal immigration, to pornography; you will continually find this nexus of evil men at the heart of these matters. Each assault upon our morality, our currency, and our country is explained away as the inevitable forces of societal progress. Yet, seemingly without fail, we find the same hidden hand orchestrating events at every turn. A select few deciding the fate of the pliant masses: that has largely been the rule of world events the last three centuries — not the exception.

In this war against self governance, against righteousness, against decency, we will almost always find organized crime leading the vanguard of debauchery and decay.

“Don’t worry, don’t worry. Look at the Astors and the Vanderbilts, all those big society people. They were the worst THIEVES—and now look at them.

It’s just a matter of time.”

— Meyer Lansky, “The Mob’s Accountant”

The American Mafia is comprised primarily of three groups: La Cosa Nostra, the Irish Mob, and the Jewish Mafia. The first mafia activity within America began in in the late 1860’s in the aftermath of the large wave of European immigration spurred on by the Union war effort. At that time, the mob largely operated as a thuggish enterprise with extortion, kidnapping and theft as their main income streams. Local political machines — such as New York’s Tammany Hall — were soon usurped by these criminal gangs. The mafia continues to play a significant role in politics today — just ask the Pritzker family. However, these original clans bear little resemblance to the corporatized outfits that visionary criminal masterminds such as Arnold “The Brain” Rothstein and Meyer Lansky would develop them into.

With the passage of the Eighteenth Amendment, gangsters had been gifted a multi-million dollar industry over night. By driving production underground, the Federal Government’s actions did nothing less than super charge the coalescing of these criminal elements. Whitney Webb details this budding partnership in the first volume of her incredible book (emphasis mine):

For the first time, in Luciano’s growing criminal empire, Italian, Jewish, and Irish criminal networks intermingled and cooperated with one another…

Joining Luciano and Costello in their criminal enterprise was Meyer Lansky and his close friend, Benjamin “Bugsy” Siegel. Lansky was well-connected in Jewish mob circles, and he, along with Siegel, had amassed significant wealth during the Prohibition era. Lansky, whose long shadow is cast across the entire history of organized crime in the twentieth century, was something of a visionary. Various accounts paint him as the intellectual architect behind the multi-ethnic organized crime model that Luciano successfully pursued. Lansky was also instrumental in bringing mob groups into the world of gambling, helping set up casinos in the Caribbean that would be utilized to wash the money generated by their various vices and rackets. Perhaps most important of all was that Lansky had also helped develop the use of a complex banking network, which he adopted in an effort to avoid the fate of Al Capone…

This Luciano-Costello-Lansky-Siegel alliance was the basis of what subsequently became known as the National Crime Syndicate.

Of course it is impossible to escape the fact that organized crime — a phenomenon exacerbated by government policy — would then go on to be used as the excuse to create an unconstitutional national police force, that being the FBI. It is also crucial to note that the first bans on automatic weapons are borne out of this same surge in criminal activity brought on by Prohibition.

There is no crisis these fiends will not use to their advantage, particularly the crises they create themselves.

Luciano — truly the Mafia as a whole — bear the near singular responsibility for the commercialization of homosexual activity in America. Gay bars across America’s cities, whether it be Chicago, Las Vegas, New York or San Francisco, were almost exclusively mob enterprises. Perfunctory police raids would take place at these dens of ill repute, and so long as the bar owners coughed up their monthly “insurance” payment, the raid would result in little actual change beyond flashy headlines to placate the plebes. These raids would nab patrons, but the Mafioso purveyors managed to escape mostly unscathed. Licenses were restored, doors reopened, and the money continued to flow. Well into the 80’s, mobsters such as Michael Zaffarano — the former bodyguard of Joseph Bonanno — had a smut empire that included an adult film theatre on Broadway, a massage parlor, a sex shop, as well as a gay bar1.

Sex shops and gay bars were hardly the only licentious endeavor that the Mafia helped pioneer. The Colombo Family soldier Anthony “Tony” Peraino was instrumental in commercializing and pioneering the Mafia’s early monopoly on pornography. He and his associates were responsible for funding, producing, and advertising the now infamous pornographic film, Deep Throat. For a mere $22k (now over 100,000 USD), the producers netted a profit of over $600,000,000. It remains the most profitable movie ever produced, as well as the most financially successful adult film of all time.

By the mid-eighties, the vast majority of the pornography industry now resided in Southern California, with South Florida a distant second. According to LAPD Captain James Doherty, almost 90% of adult films were produced in Los Angeles. LAPD Chief Daryl Gates would later say that at least 85% of the porn industry was controlled by organized crime, primarily the Italian and Jewish mafias. This was just as true of the pornographic companies in South Florida.

Indeed, the central role that organized crime played in the creation and societal acceptance of both homosexuality & pornography is inescapable.

“Simply stated, paper currency and even silver were often useless, as there was nothing to buy with money; opium, however, was the form of payment everybody used. Not to use it as a means of barter would spell an end to our operations.

Opium was available to agents who used it for a number of reasons, from obtaining information to buying their own escape. Any indignation felt was removed by the difficulty of the effort ahead. If opium could be useful in achieving victory, the pattern was clear.

We would use OPIUM.”

— Lieutenant General William Ray Peers, Head of OSS Detachment 101

I discuss in Black Ops & Black Magick, Part I & Part II how the Regime identified television as a singularly powerful tool of mass manipulation. This fact is no better illustrated than by the wealth of CIA and FBI agitprop pumped out by Holly Wood on a yearly basis. The Disney-fied fable of the noble FBI or CIA officer could not be farther from the truth. From its earliest days, the FBI was always used a tool of political terror, akin to the Stasi. By the early 1930’s, they were already being used to spy on FDR’s political opponents. As for the OSS, they were no better:

The OSS was frequently – and accurately – seen as a social club… its leadership and higher-ranking administrative posts tended to be secured by the sons of the country’s wealthiest elite. In London, Madrid, Geneva, Paris and elsewhere, posts were held by members of the Mellon family of Pittsburgh, the family behind the Gulf Oil fortune. Heirs of the Morgan family also secured positions within the agency, as did members of the DuPont and the Vanderbilt families.

— One Nation Under Blackmail, Vol. I

Considering that these agencies serve the interests of the moneyed powers, it should be no surprise to see our masters’ children amongst our modern day inquisitors.

Engineered wars are ever the excuse used by unscrupulous men to break laws, bend morality, and butcher the truth in pursuit of power. World War II provided that very same opportunity for the American police state to cement their power. While rotting in jail for his extensive prostitution empire, “Lucky” Luciano was proposed an offer he couldn’t refuse: help the US Army invade Sicily, and in return his sentence would be commuted. During the war, the Sicilian mafia essentially became an extension of the Federal Government; effectively serving as an intelligence agency in the lead up to Patton’s invasion of Sicily. The clout that the mafia wielded was on full display during the American campaign in Sicily. As Operation Husky unfolded, British forces were bogged down in fighting; the American army however passed through Western Sicily largely uncontested. For his role in the US war effort, Luciano was released from jail and deported back to Sicily.

During the same time that the American mafia was working hand in hand with our government, the OSS was beginning their foray into the drug business. In the Pacific theatre, they freely dealt in opium and heroin as the currency of the anti-Japanese insurgency. The Green Gang, a Chinese secret society and organized crime outfit, helped finance Chiang Kai-Shek through their sale of opium in America. The Iran-Contra scheme is hardly an aberration in American’s history, as The Regime has been selling drugs to finance their skullduggery since the Opium Wars of the Nineteenth Century.

Of course our intelligence services infatuation with illicit drugs did not end with WWII, and this illegality has only intensified in the last 40 years as this cancer has metastasized. From Vietnam to Afghanistan, our wars have not simply served as useful money making schemes, they also served to provide the governmental cartels access to this lucrative resource. Afghanistan for instance was the heroin capitol of the world during the entirety of American occupation:

The Taliban government in Afghanistan – the nation that until recently produced 90% of the world’s heroin – has drastically reduced opium cultivation across the country. Western sources estimate an up to 99% reduction in some provinces. This raises serious questions about the seriousness of U.S. drug eradication efforts in the country over the past 20 years.

Our “war” on Afghanistan’s Opium production has been about as successful as our “war” on the cartels — yet another criminal enterprise that is entirely a manifestation of American domestic & foreign policy2. (I find it to be no coincedence that these cartels engage in a great deal of occult practices themselves.3) No wonder then that a majority of Mexicans now view America as their top geopolitical threat4. It is abundantly clear that the last 80 years of US policy has revolved around maintaining the steady flow of opiates across the world.

This has become one of the primary avenues that The Regime now wages war upon the common man: almost half of all deaths in the 18-35 cohort is caused by drug overdoses, the vast majority of which are opiate-related.

“…the intelligence-mob collaboration established with Operation Underworld did not end after World War II. On the contrary, post-war narcotics operations overseas were subordinated to anti-Communist activities; and they were used as a cover for ongoing use of mob assets, above all drug traffickers, around the world.

In developing these post-war mob contacts, White and his [Federal Bureau of Narcotics] associates, notably his former supervisor Garland Williams, and his protégé Charles Siragusa, even while formally back in the FBN hierarchy, ‘functioned as a counterintelligence unit, attached to the CIA and, at times, the Army.’…

In the 1950s and 1960s it would appear that the FBN systematically subordinated the prosecution of drug cases to a second, hidden agenda, the use of TRAFFICKERS as agents against communism.”

— Deep Politics and the Death of JFK, Peter Dale Scott

Despite all of this societal mayhem, most of this simply would not be possible without the assistance and collusion of banking interests across the world. It beggars belief that such massive flows of cash would pass through these systems without being noticed, and recent court cases have elucidated that fact quite poignantly for us. In 2016, the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC) was protected by the US DoJ5, despite the court finding that they had helped cartels and terrorist organizations launder billions of dollars in illicit funds6. James Comey, who was then a board member of HSBC, left the company in the midst of the original scandal before being appointed to FBI Director in 2013. We also have the quite ostentatious corruption of the Bush clan, seen most famously in the aftermath of the grossly misnamed Operation Just Cause:

The George Bush hand-picked new President of Panama is Guillermo Endura…

Endura is a Director of a Panamanian bank used exclusively by [Colombia’s] Medellin drug cartel…

The George Bush[’s] hand-picked Vice President of Panama Is Guillermo Ford, who is also the Chairman of the Banking Commission of Panama. As it happens, he is also part owner of the Dadeland Bank of Florida which was named In a court case two years ago as the central institution for the drug cartels.

— Behold A Pale Horse

The examples of the gross collusion seen above could fill a library. Gary Webb’s phenomenal book, Dark Alliance, remains a must read for those who wish to truly life the veil on the deep ties between the cartels, the US Government, and the banking barons. Indeed, as we see time and time again, the money lenders and their puppets within the government are more than willing to profit off the proliferation of death, drugs, and decay.

Perhaps the bank with the longest history of scandal and fraud is the Vatican’s. Quite famously, the scandalous ties between the Sicilian mafia, Freemasonry, and the Vatican Bank were publicly revealed in the investigation into the death of Roberto Calvi:

ROME (Reuters) – A Sicilian mobster, a Roman crime boss and two others were indicted on Monday in connection with the 1982 hanging of Roberto Calvi, a financier dubbed “God’s banker” for his close ties to the Vatican, a Rome court said.

Calvi, once thought to have committed suicide, was found hanging from scaffolding under London’s Blackfriars Bridge in June 1982 with bricks in his pockets and $15,000 (8,000 pounds) on his person.

But in the latest twist to the saga, prosecutors now say the Mafia killed Calvi for stealing from them and from Italian financier Licio Gelli. Gelli was the head of the P2 lodge — a shadowy Masonic organisation whose members once included prominent politicians, businessmen and military officers.

The judge said the trial will start on Oct 6 and will involve the convicted Cosa Nostra treasurer Pippo Calo, Roman crime boss Ernesto Diotallevi, Sardinian financier Flavio Carboni and his ex-girlfriend Manuela Kleinszig.

The prosecutors’ inquiry has focused on millions of dollars that flowed through the bank’s offshore accounts in the weeks preceding Calvi’s death.

Shortly before Calvi’s hanging, the bank he headed at the time, Banco Ambrosiano, had gone bankrupt. It was then Italy’s largest private banking group and worked with the Vatican.

The Vatican Bank continues to be embroiled in such controversies as recently as 2021. It is quite clear that the mafia does just as much business with Rome as the cartels have done with DC7. Considering Christ’s violent condemnation of this very practice, the Vatican Bank should be considered not just anathema, but a pseudo-criminal outfit itself.

(For those interested, I have extensively discussed the longstanding Biblical ban on usury in Alchemical Weapon for Economic Wars.)

The evidence, while stomach-churning and rage-inducing, can simply not be denied. Organized crime is entirely a phenomenon of governmental acquiescence and occult collusion. The unholy union of corporatized criminal syndicates, “democratic” governments, high finance, and the Mystery religion is one centuries in the making. This relationship is not merely one of convenience, for each actor in this dark orchestra has served this malevolent agenda in their own unique ways. Each side of this luciferian killbox has played their vital role in the moral degradation and enslavement of mankind.

Illicit markets, particularly the drug trade, is the lifeblood of the Beast System. Fiat currency’s lifespan has been extended significantly by bleeding excess capital into these secondary markets. While the economic angle of Dope Inc. is compelling in its own right, we find many a shocking parallel between our current drug epidemic and the Opium Wars of the Nineteenth Century. Opium was wielded with devastating effectiveness by the Sassoon’s in China, both as a financial and societal weapon of control. When cancer-stricken grandmothers are being locked up for having the temerity to walk into the Capitol building, it is impossible to seriously deny that allowing such criminality to flourish is anything other than a conscious governmental policy.

Opiates, such as fentanyl, have been the preferred weapon of the Mystery religion and her acolytes for the demoralization and demasculinization of enemy nations.

Her attack upon America’s families and morality is no less pernicious. Whether it be usury, pornography, opiates, or cartel facilitated illegal immigration, seemingly every major societal ill lies downstream of this cancerous coalition. We have naturally had such issues plague mankind for our entire existence, for we can never legislate sin out of man’s heart. That said, we have never before seen such a coalescing of criminal elements to utterly degrade and destroy their host nations.

What then is the difference between the mafia, Freemasonry, and our so called “intelligence” agencies?

In truth, not much.

“I believe that if the people of this nation fully understood what Congress has done to them over past forty-nine years, they would move on Washington.

It adds up to a PRECONCIEVED plan to destroy the economic and social independence of the United States.”

— Senator George Malone of Nevada (R), 1947-1959
