The book shows how international communism has used opium and cocain as a powerful weapon against the West. Dr. Ray S. Cline, Ph.D., a former Deputy Director for Intelligence for the CIA, said: "A powerful and well-documented case of a deliberate policy decision, first by authorities in Beijing and then in Moscow, to contribute to the decay of American society."

References to Chapter 8:
1 Cuba's participation in all these activities has been explained by numerous defectors and former narcotics traffickers. A collection of news media reports following the November 1982, indictment has been published as Castro and the Narcotics Connection (Washington, D.C: The Cuban American National Foundation, Inc., 1983) and Castro's Narcotics Trade (Washington, D.C: The Cuban American National Foundation, Inc., 1983). See also Ra'anan, Hydra of Carnage, op. cit., pages 431-476.

2 A 'revolutionary centre' is a base for the training and export of revolutionary activity. See Footnote 3, Chapter 3, for further information about 'revolutionary centres'.

5 Interestingly, Pineiro was one of two men Castro despatched on a secret mission to Chile's embattled Marxist-Leninist President, Salvador Allende, only six weeks before Allende's overthrow in 1973. Pineiro and the Cuban Deputy Prime Minister, Carlos Rafael Rodriguez - who also headed Cuba's Communist Party - bore a hand written note from Castro urging Allende to fight to the death should revolution materialise. Pineiro succeeded as secret police chief Luis Fernandes Ona, sent by Castro to aid in shoring up the Allende regime in its early days, and who subsequently married one of Allende's daughters.
