EL PASO, Tx. — According to a report by Barabara Johnson on the World News Daily Report web site, Minutemen in Texas have arrested two drug traffickers who claim to be working for the CIA.

According to the report, seven of the militia men stopped a large black SUV moving rapidly across the border in the Chihuahuan desert near El Paso. They stopped it after a 15-mile chase. The militia made a citizens arrest and called the border patrol. The group discovered 1363-pounds of cocaine.

The men produced what appeared to be CIA identity cards, but CIA spokesman Dean Boyd denied any link with the operation. Boyd said:

The CIA doesn’t take part in drug smuggling operations at the US-Mexican border. I do not know, for now, if the men are actually affiliated to the agency in any way, but I can tell you the cocaine doesn’t belong to the CIA.

The artcile said that the U.S. Custom service has announced that they will conduct a full investigation into the story of the two men.

In 1996, Gary Webb wrote a series of articles in the San Jose Mercury News called Dark Alliance which alledged that the CIA transported cocaine to gangs in South Central LA to pay for the activities of anti-government Contra rebels in Nicaragua.

Mainstream media attacked Webb and the San Jose Mercury News which led to his dismissal. After starting to rebuild his career and after just receiving an advance for a new book, he was found dead on December 10, 2004 in Carmicheal, California of two gunshot wounds to the head. It was ruled a suicide.

One of the former “Kingpins” alluded to in the article recently spoke about the articles and the death of Gary Webb and a new documentary is being produced about the incident called Freeway: Crack in the System.
