Oh wow, an incredible report was released on Sunday that revealed the Obama administration effectively ended a major operation by federal law enforcement targeting Hezbollah because Obama wanted to secure a nuclear deal with Iran. As it turned out, the deal sucked.
The operation was named Project Cassandra, but it might as well have been called Operation Clusterfart. It was launched in 2008 after the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) gathered enough evidence to show that Hezbollah had grown from a "military and political organization" that operated solely in the Middle East into an international criminal enterprise that generated about $1 billion per year from "drug and weapons trafficking, money laundering and other criminal activities," Politico reported.
The operation tracked cocaine shipments from Latin America to West Africa and then the shipments were routed to the Middle East and Europe.
For over 8 years, federal agents used a top-secret facility in Virginia to conduct undercover operations that charted Hezbollah's huge criminal enterprise. The entire operation relied on help provided by 30 U.S. and foreign security agencies.
Money from Hezbollah's criminal activity was laundered by "buying American used cars and shipping them to Africa."
Most importantly, the Obama administration intentionally sabotaged Project Cassandra by throwing "increasingly insurmountable series of roadblocks in its way. And Obama's Justice Department and State Department refused to assist Project Cassandra with a variety of necessary law enforcement activities including filing criminal charges against the top players of Hezbollah and "lur[ing] high-value targets to countries where they could be arrested."
By this refusal, in effect, the Obama administration allowed Hezbollah to traffic multi-ton quantities of cocaine into the U.S. and allowed hundreds of millions of dollars to flow from the U.S. to the terrorist organization.
If this isn't treason, then treason does not exist.
So what will be done?
