...But of these sophisms and elenchs of merchandise I skill not...
Milton, Areopagitica

Except he had found the
standing sea-rock that even this last
Temptation breaks on; quieter than death but lovelier; peace
that quiets the desire even of praising it.

Jeffers, Meditation On Saviors

In case you're keeping track each one of those guys is Jewish.
But then so's Jim Lobe.
Mel Sembler, well oh well. Mel Sembler is one sick son of a bitch.
He gets his own set of links.

Lansky:
Asked why all the gangsters were tolerated in Cuban casinos, the U.S. ambassador Earl Smith reportedly explained, "it seems to be the only way to get honest casinos". Lansky's days in Cuba, however, were numbered when Castro took power in Havana. In October 1960 the Riviera Hotel and 165 other American enterprises were confiscated and nationalized.
Lansky:
Even Al Capone realized they were more powerful than he.
In remarks attributed to Luciano, he once explained, "I learned a long time before that Meyer Lansky understood the Italian brain almost better than I did. . . . I used to tell Lansky that he may've had a Jewish mother, but someplace he must've been wet-nursed by a Sicilian." Luciano often said Lansky "could look around corners," or anticipate what would happen next in underworld intrigues, and that "the barrel of his gun was curved," meaning he knew how to keep himself out of the line of fire.
Lansky:
The Lanskys and Traficante organized a pipeline of Peruvian cocaine from Cuba to the US with an associate named George Zarate.
Somewhere in all this is the reason and cause drugs are so viciously illegal and at the same time so readily available; the cause of the constant unquestioned hysterical condemnation of the Cuban revolution; the reason for US nurturing and maintenance of the fascist Columbian government (and recent extradition of key witnesses in Columbian corruption cases to the US , where they can be silenced); and the war in Iraq.
