Lt. Col. Oliver North is sworn in July 7, 1987, before the congressional committee investigating the Iran-contra affair.

In 1987 George H. W. Bush's Enterprise was winding down. Iran-Contra may have been a limited hangout intended as a coup to undseat Ronald Reagan.

Iran-Contra

Full article: “Iran-Contra”

1987 marked the investigation of the Iran contra affair, which may have been a failed bid by George H. W. Bush to end Ronald Reagan's presidency. It was however successful at keeping a lid on the emerging details about CIA drug trafficking and associated crimes of the enterprise. Oliver North was chosen as the fall guy.

A 1998 Washington Post short review of the case made no mention of either drugs or the name George H. W. Bush.

Change of enemies

The Carlyle Group was set up, which was later to reap huge profits from the "war on terror" that would take the place of the USSR after the Soviet empire unravelled.

 

Events

Event	Date	Description
Operation Paperclip		A transfer of top German scientists to USA.
Cold War		The official narrative had 2 diametrically opposed systems locked in combat with one another since soon after WW2. Each of the "superpowers" and its team of allies needed to outdo each other by creating ever more and deadlier weapons, creating a kind of perpetual war for perpetual peace, with the warring parties engaging mainly in covert/proxy wars. Deep state interests blossomed in the climate of fear and paranoia.
The Troubles
Operation Condor
Inslaw		The Inslaw affair was a complex financial/political fraud the full dimensions of which were never uncovered, but some of which were forced onto the official record.
Project STARGATE		Project STARGATE aimed to gain domination over entire nations by making them cede their autonomy and privacy to the controlling person or group.
1980s Afghan war
Arms-to-Iraq
Iran-Iraq war
Al-Yamamah arms deal		A complex series of multi billion dollar arms for oil deals set up under the government of Margaret Thatcher, involving a bunch of deep state arms dealers, and her son - who earned £12 million. Fines levied have been in the hundreds of millions, while kickbacks amount to billions.
Savings and loan fraud		"The largest theft in the history of the world", carried out in broad daylight, with legislative assistance. So many US politicians were directly or indirectly involved, that it was never properly exposed and efforts are ongoing to try to hide the fact that it was no mere accident.
