What do wild sex and drug parties in Laurel Canyon, John Lennon’s assassination and the SDS splinter group, the Weathermen, have in common?

According to John Potash, the answer is “Plenty!” As revealed by filmmaker Potash in his new film, CIA DRUGS R US–A Drugs as Weapons…Sequel, these three historical occurrences are all infested with CIA drug money and intentionality.

John Potash’s film is based on the thesis that the CIA has been deploying street drugs, including acid and heroin, as weapons in order to diminish the effectiveness of those who are in the public eye and have the capacity to garner protest against the direction that the country is taking. The film casts a wide net, involving not only the drug use and subsequent assassinations of a number of politicos and musicians and the intelligence associations of the alleged assassins, but also revealing connections with MK ULTRA and related programs. The film accuses the Agency as being implicated in the takedown of the SDS, fun games with the Manson Family and other sixties icons in the Laurel Canyon crowd.
