JFK Had Ordered Full Withdrawal from Vietnam: per National Security Action Memorandum Number 263.

https://whowhatwhy.org/politics/government-integrity/jfk-ordered-full-withdrawal-vietnam-solid-evidence/

What I Wonder is: Who Benefited from Continuing the Vietnam War? Dow Chemical sold a Lot of Agent Orange and Napalm. Bell Aircraft Sold a Lot of Helicopters. The CIA Exported Tons of Heroin out of Laos... Financing their Operations Worldwide... This is Something I was Not Taught in School... nor did anyone mention it in all the conversations I've Had about the War and The Assassination... 

Was this the Real Motive for Kennedy's Assassination? To Keep the Vietnam War Going.

On October 2, 1963, Kennedy received the report of a mission to Saigon by McNamara and Maxwell Taylor, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS). The main recommendations, which appear in Section I(B) of the McNamara-Taylor report, were that a phased withdrawal be completed by the end of 1965 and that the “Defense Department should announce in the very near future presently prepared plans to withdraw 1,000 out of 17,000 U.S. military personnel stationed in Vietnam by the end of 1963.” At Kennedy’s instruction, Press Secretary Pierre Salinger made a public announcement that evening of McNamara’s recommended timetable for withdrawal.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Security_Action_Memorandum_263

National Security Action Memorandum Number 263 (NSAM-263) was a national security directive approved on 11 October 1963 by United States President John F. Kennedy. The NSAM approved recommendations by Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Maxwell Taylor. McNamara and Taylor's recommendations included an appraisal that "great progress" was being made in the Vietnam War against Viet Cong insurgents, that 1,000 military personnel could be withdrawn from South Vietnam by the end of 1963, and that a "major part of the U.S. military task can be completed by the end of 1965." 

https://historynewsnetwork.org/article/3446

White House taped conversations and other documents reveal a president who recognized the inherent dangers of military intervention in Vietnam and who had devised an exit strategy. Had it not been for his assassination, the withdrawal plan might have prevented the deaths of more than 58,000 Americans and countless numbers of Vietnamese, Laotians, and Cambodians.

*JUST JOKING* A Step by Step Guide to the Violet Overgrow of the Ruling Class - A Novel by Gregory Vanderlaan *JUST JOKING*

Step #1: 

Boycott Everything Until Prices Come Down. 

Corporations owned by the 1% keep on raising prices and collecting windfall profits. They will keep on doing that until people quit buying. If they could, they would charge $100.00 for a Quart of Milk... 

Step #2: Sneak Marijuana Cookies onto the Buffet Tables of the Hotels near Capitol Hill in Washington DC. If the "Suits" that Run the Government had a Cannabis Trip... maybe they would think twice about doing evil for a living. Place some Cannabis Edibles in the Senate Dining Room also... At the very least they would change the CrazyLaws® about Marijuana... 

Step #3: Cut the Pentagon Budget in Half. This will really anger the Ruling Class as They Profit Greatly from Corporate Welfare. Remember: Since 1945 the US Military has Never Defended the USA... Not Even Once... So all that money being spent at the Pentagon is Just a Way to Transfer Wealth from the Taxpayers to the Owners of Defense Corporations...  The same Owners Finance the Campaigns of the Senators and Congressmen that Write the Bills that Fund the Pentagon... So the Money Travels in a Tight Circle... and YOU GET NOTHING... 

Step #4: Stop Funding Fossil Fuel Corporations. "U.S. taxpayers spend tens of billions of dollars a year subsidizing new fossil fuel exploration, production, and consumption, which directly affects how much oil, natural gas, and coal gets produced—and how much clean energy doesn’t." https://generation180.org/the-absurd-truth-about-fossil-fuel-subsidies/

Who Will Protect the Opium Now that the US Military has Left Afghanistan? Our Main Mission Was Protecting the Crop... While Pretending to Fight a War on Drugs.

Chart Says: "Big drop due to Taliban ban before US-led invasion deposed them at end of 2001" and Points to Opium Crop Production of Almost ZERO Acres... 

UN Chart: Opium Production in Afghanistan
https://www.unodc.org/documents/crop-monitoring/Afghanistan/Afghanistan_opium_survey_2018.pdf

The United States spent more than $8 billion over 15 years on efforts to deprive the Taliban of their profits from Afghanistan's opium and heroin trade, from poppy eradication to airstrikes and raids on suspected labs.

That strategy failed...

Headline: How the US military's opium war in Afghanistan was lost... https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-47861444 

Opium is woven deeply into the fabric of the conflict in Afghanistan, now the longest war in American history.

The profits from the heroin it produces are used to fund the Taliban, as well as terrorist groups like the so-called Islamic State and Al Qaeda.

And heroin also drives the rampant corruption that is so corrosive to civil society in Afghanistan.

On Facebook a Guitar Player asked: Is it worth learning modes? Why or why not? 

YES! Learn modes because someday you might play with New Age Synthesizer players... one trick they employ is "just play black notes" - and that is an excellent plan for Outer Space Improv... and that's a MODE... Tune your guitar down a Half step so the E strings are Eb and Noodle Away!

The Heroin from "The French Connection" was Stolen by the Police and Sold on the Streets of New York City... Classic War on Drugs FAIL... The Movie Failed to Tell the Entire Story...

 December 1972 — The police department discloses that around 200 pounds (91 kg) of heroin, much of it seized in the French Connection busts a decade earlier, has been stolen from evidence lockers over a period of several months and replaced with cornstarch by someone who signed in under false names and nonexistent badge numbers. Several detectives were suspected of complicity in the thefts; in 2009 Brooklyn mobster Anthony Casso, serving 455 years in federal prison, intimated that he knew who had stolen the drugs.[34] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_New_York_City

https://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/22/nyregion/22french.html

The well-organized gang was responsible for distributing close to a million dollars worth of heroin up and down the East Coast of the United States during the early 1970s, which in turn led to a major New York Police Department (NYPD) corruption scheme. The scope and depth of this scheme are still not known, but officials suspect it involved corrupt NYPD officers who allowed Papa, Alessi, and Loria access to the NYPD property/evidence storage room, where hundreds of kilograms of heroin lay seized from the now-infamous French Connection bust, and from which the men would help themselves and replace missing heroin with flour and cornstarch to avoid detection.[11][12]

The substitution was discovered only when officers noticed insects eating all the bags of "heroin". By that point an estimated street value of approximately $70 million worth of heroin had already been taken. The racket was brought to light and arrests were made. Certain plotters received jail sentences, including Papa, who was later murdered in federal prison in Atlanta, Georgia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Connection

It's Good to see The Bayer Corporation is Such Deep Financial Trouble... They Started Out Great, Aspirin was a Miraculous Invention... But Now They seem to be Experiencing the Bad Karma they generated when they Invented and then Marketed the "NON-Addictive" Painkiller HEROIN... It was an alternative to Morphine... OOPS... Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire...

Recently, Bayer bought the entire Corporation Monsanto... Thinking that they would make a Profit from the Agribusiness Giant... But then Monsanto's RoundUP Herbicide lost Millions of Dollars in a Lawsuit about Causing Cancer... OOPS!

The Stockholders of Bayer are Mad as Hell at the Executive that Planned the Takeover of Monsanto... They accuse him of being "DUMB AS A ROCK."

"It's Dark in the Daytime and Sunny at Night." - Quotations of QANON - An example of "CrazyTalk" - A Phrase Coined by Matt Groening in the Cartoon "The Simpsons." 

Three of My Clients DIED While I Was Working at the Welfare Office in Eureka,California... Here are Their Stories... They Shouldn't Be The Forgotten People.

One was an Old Drunk. He Died while sleeping Outdoors in the Rain under a Bridge. He was well known and loved by the Police and the people that ran the Eureka Rescue Mission. It seemed that he spent one third of his time incarcerated at the County Jail, one third at the Mission and one third drunk. As soon as he was let out of Jail he would come to the Welfare Office and we would sign him up for Housing and food and then we called the Mission... They Invited him over for A Hot Meal and OFTEN He walked the 10 blocks without going to a Liquor Store and Often He would Just Get Drunk and Pass Out on the Sidewalk... to be picked up by the Police...  and Incarcerated Again...

The Second used our Transportation Assistance Program to Buy Enough Heroin to Kill Himself. The way T.A.P. Worked was that IF a Person found themselves Broke, Unemployed and Homeless in Humboldt County, We would buy them a ONE WAY BUS TICKET  HOME... They had to have a place to stay when they got home (like their Mom's or Wife's House) but we would buy them a Greyhound Ticket and Food for the Journey... Often Teenagers would Come to Humboldt County to Work as Farm Laborers in the Marijuana Harvest. Criminals hired many "Trimmers" to remove the unsellable parts of the plant from the valuable BUDS. Then when the Harvest is over, Everyone was laid off and all those teenagers need to go back to Beautiful Tennessee or Texas or Wherever they Came from... It was a big adventure for Kids Nationwide to live like an outlaw in  Humboldt County,California... However, if you owned a CAR, we would buy you Gas and Food for your Journey... So, Robert Owned a Car and a Driver's Licence and We paid him Thousands of Dollars to Buy Gas All they way to South Carolina... He Drove about 50 Miles to a Remote Farm and Bought Heroin... then when he overdosed, the Farmers dumped the Body on the Side of the Road near a Gas Station...

The Third was VERY Annoying and Rude Whenever he came into the Office. An Angry and Offensive Client. We were paid to tolerate all types of clients at the office... HOWEVER, he did that behavior out in the real world and a guy who worked at the Cannery stuck him with a Filleting Knife... The Police Caught the Killer. Everyone knew exactly when he was stuck with a knife and so the Police Subpoenaed the film from all security Cameras in  Eureka for One Hour before he arrived at the Hospital. And there he was getting into a Yellow Chevy outside a Store in a Rough Part of Town... where they film robbery suspects shopping... The Police asked around and found out WHO Owned Cars like that and Interviewed Them... and the Owner just happened to be Incarcerated at the County Jail on different charges... While being Questioned he Confessed to the Murder

A Fourth Client was applying for Social Security Disability (Someone else's client)and when her claim was awarded the SSA sent her $10,000 of back pay. She was a diabetic. She Purchased a Motel Room and a Fifth of Vodka and Housekeeping Found Her Body the Next Morning... Evidently, Diabetics Should Not Drink...

Legal marijuana is saving lives in Colorado, study finds. Opioid Death Rate Falls after Legalization

Some people simply switch to the safer drug. DUH

Our war in Afghanistan has increased the production of opium therefore increasing US deaths due to heroin overdoses.

The USA consumes 80% of the world's heroin. If we simply got out of Afghanistan and let the people there run their own country the Opium Crop would be reduced as it's against the Koran to grow it... Trump is Right - We are Losing the War. We ought to simply surrender just like we did in Vietnam and Nicaragua. That would reduce US deaths from Heroin and Soldier Suicide.

As you can see from the UN Chart above our war has increased the crop yield: Up to the year 2000 the Russians were at war in Afghanistan. Then in 2001 the people of Afghanistan ruled their own country. Then the USA invaded and crop production increased. Most of that Opium eventually comes to America and kills people here.

Americans Use 80% of the World’s Opioid Supply
