Awake Goy Two years before his assassination in 1986, Barry Seal (left) was indicted for possession of 462 pounds of cocaine worth $168 million. Seal, 46, was gunned down Feb. 19, 1986 in a parking lot. Prosecutors blamed the Medellin Cartel for the machine-gun killing,. But what Seal had on the Clintons, G.H.W. Bush and his sons alone were a death sentence.
The Sandinistas also collaborated in the CIA operation that that saw planes fly guns to Nicaragua and return loaded with cocaine.
Roger Reaves’s was Seal’s employer. Written in jail, his Memoir is called Smuggler.
“As we climbed aboard my plane, Ben quipped that it seemed all sides of politics were up to their necks in the drug trade. Whether supposed right wing capitalist Contra’s or left wing Communist revolutionaries, coconuts and banana’s were taking a serious second place to the cocaine flooding out of South America into the nasal passages of millions of Americans at fifty thousand dollars a kilo.”

Barry [Seal] would only
land at Mena, Arkansas where Governor William Jefferson Clinton ruled
with wife Hillary. Barry said he was covered one hundred percent,
right to the very top; that it was impossible for him to be arrested.
I balked at his bravado and wondered how you could guarantee ‘one
hundred percent’? Even with bribes, which were the norm at this level
of operation, you could never guarantee ‘one hundred percent’. I was
soon to learn that when Barry said he was having, “lunch with
the Gov,” he wasn’t joking.
The landing fee there was
$50,000, or $125,000 in today’s money. I can guess it was spread
around through the Sheriff, on up the chain. I never bothered asking,
I knew how things worked. It was no secret Bill and Hillary Clinton
were up to their necks in mischief in the state of Arkansas. In any
case, I had to cough up the money every time Barry landed at Mena and
he must have done that at least thirty times on my watch.
I found out much later he
was doing far more than that. While I languished in prison, Barry
kept flying and began operations in a much larger aircraft that was
registered to the DEA and CIA. At times he was carrying over one and
a half tons of cocaine in a single trip on a C-126 military transport
aircraft dubbed, ‘The Fat Lady’.
Before loading the
cocaine, he would drop off a load of arms for the Contra Rebels based
in Nicaragua. Barry was right in the center of one of the greatest
political scandals of the last century – Iran/Contra. Illegal arms
shipments came out of the USA to anti-Communist forces in Nicaragua
and cocaine flew right back into the USA in return, on the same plane
– tons and tons of it. No one said, “Just say no.” No one
in the White House anyway. Nor Mena, Arkansas. Never in my wildest
dreams did I imagine that the name ‘Barry Seal’ and ‘Mena’ would soar
to such notoriety in the years to come.
But for now, early in his
career with the Medellin Cartel, Barry went to work for me and flew
just as fast as I paid him. This doubled my risk as I was paying out
cash for the cartel before I was paid. Nevertheless, I had to pay him
before he would fly. Barry bitched and moaned about this and that. In
one box containing a million dollars I placed a package of Stay Free
Mini-Pads with a big pink bow. He thought it was so funny that he
made a special place for it.

I had made some complaints
to Pablo about the jungle airstrips and the dangers for my engines as
they were sensitive turbo props – essentially a jet engine driving a
propeller. Typical of the Medellin Cartel, no expense was spared and
a thousand feet of runway were added and smoothed to perfection with
hard clay. Later I heard that particular place was as busy as JFK
airport with some extra large aircraft landing.
At times, Pablo himself
would fly in on his Jet Ranger helicopter and talk with me about
procedures and plans. On one particular trip he landed with his
entourage and three hundred kilo’s of produce looking very happy with
himself. Both he and Jorge Ochoa had organized with the Sandinista
Communist government of Nicaragua for me to land at a military
airbase with a large concrete runway and modern facilities. I was
extremely happy with this as both Barry and I were growing
increasingly nervous about landing at the Carver ranch in Belize with
fifteen million dollars worth of cocaine every week. It was only a
matter of time before local bandits twigged as to what was happening
and ambushed us. …

Pablo arranged for me to
meet “Ben”, an American, tall with blonde hair and blue
eyes on my next trip down south. A helicopter pilot by trade, he flew
right seat with me and directed me to the large military airfield in
the east of Nicaragua. On landing, we were taken to see the
Commandante’ in the officers mess and served a meal of steak with an
egg on top as well as beans and rice. It sounds simple but it was
delicious.
The commander was a very
dignified and gracious man and assured us we were welcome at any
time. His only instruction was that we maintain radio silence on
approach to the base. Ben and I exited the officers mess well pleased
with the new arrangement and I noted my beloved Aero-Commander was
sparkling, washed, refueled and ready to go. Now, I was protected one
hundred percent in Colombia and Barry was protected one hundred
percent in Mena, Arkansas. It was too good to be true.
As we climbed aboard my
plane, Ben quipped that it seemed all sides of politics were up to
their necks in the drug trade. Whether supposed right wing capitalist
Contra’s or left wing Communist revolutionaries, coconuts and
banana’s were taking a serious second place to the cocaine flooding
out of South America into the nasal passages of millions of Americans
at fifty thousand dollars a kilo.
Ronald Reagan was later to
make much of the expose of Sandinista government officials
photographed unloading Barry in Nicaragua. Commentators claimed that
it was a “set up” and the Iran/Contra affair was an almost
purely Bush SNR, Oliver North/Contra operation, run by a virtual
private intelligence group from within the CIA and State Department.
Not so, the Sandinistas were playing their own part in the cocaine
trade. Who wasn’t? The Bush and Clinton clan included.
