  This note is a short version of a detailed paper I am writing; I am putting out this post because US has broken all rules of law and ethics. Instead of the US, the nation, trying to rein in their President, the SOCTUS and Congress are being silent and complicit with the crimes of US President as he abuses the oval office. The story line created by US to ensure they can attack Venezuela a sovereign nation did not start now, but was put in process years ago facilitated by earlier US Presidents, it became obvious when President Chavez nationalised oil industry and focused on reducing disparity within the nation and ensuring real governance of Venezuela for its people. Unlike the governments that were admired by US, for their focus was US, its oil companies, Venezuelan elites and at the best the middle class. To ensure US goals are met,  US has been carrying out silent war with use of logical fallacies and narration building. This note focuses on the same. Building a narrative...

  International waters have become the new arena to take pot shots with missiles on small boats that dare to ferry. According to Secretary of Defence, Pete Hegseth, the current action of killing all those who ferry small boats allegedly carrying tons of drugs is within the law, he states “Our current operation in the Caribbean is lawful under both US and international law, with the law of military and civilian lawyers, up and down the chain of command” [1].   Apparently either US President and Secretary of Defence have become delusional about legal matters or they think the world is delusional and will believe anything dished out of the oval office.   Just curious Mr. US. President and Secretary of Defence, Pete Hegseth:   1) If Global Index Score (2024) is to be believed the US is way ahead of Venezuela, US is ranked at 81 with score of 3.517 on a scale of 0 to 10. Venezuela only managed a score of 0.71 and is ranked 99. This has been the pattern for previous ye...

  French Cyber Security, never thought a global drug trader, marketer, human trafficker, extortionist, gun trafficker could exist all rolled in one and on one platform and under the control of one individual, along with disinformation, fake news? It is extremely interesting that you have identified Telegram as the central point for global illegal crime activities. Just curious, by your logic all the postal departments across the globe should be held criminally liable, for after all these department have provided some sort of cover for most of the activities and drug trade taking the prime spot. Can we expect a global plan in action to arrest the respective Postal Department heads or the concerned Ministers. This is great! Since, there are differen t laws and different provisions under these laws for carrying out arrest, just curious which law took precedent over all else. Since, you have identified Telegram as the main culprit, you should inform UNODC for they are under the...

Our association with mind altering substances has rarely remained static or uniform across the globe or within any given region. The United Nations sought to control this complex, diverse and intricate human association through its various global conventions, beginning with the Single Convention 1961 as the base; and State members were bound to follow the set path without much room for change (1,2). But, despite all of its efforts it could neither rein in the drug problem nor ensure that a uniform drug policy led to the synthesis of uniform associations with mind altering substances, across the globe. In many countries a minor shift in drug policy occurred when drugs users became very vulnerable to HIV infection, initiating harm minimization measures for users who injected drugs. The harm minimization strategy included, provision of safe needle and syringes, opioid agonist therapy (OST) to users in the community and to addicted prison population, setting up of a room for safe c...
