Episode 23 - Cartelworld: Drugs, Banking, Empire and Terrorism

Tonight we look at drugs, high finance, intelligence and terrorism. From South America to the Middle East, we explore how the global drug trade is manipulated by various state and non-state actors, meta-groups, if you will, to serve their own ends. We take in El Chapo, Osama bin Laden, the South American cartels, Nazis, the Soviet-Afghan War, HSBC, Gladio and more. Here we are attempting to create a kind of network map, to better understand how and why drugs are a Hidden Engine of global affairs.   !PATREON ONLY EPISODE!
