The guy on the left was a US Marine Lt. Colonel who was arrested and convicted for selling missiles to Iran.

@draken they DO, it's just that they are entirely perverted, twisted and beyond the ken of decent humans.

They VALUE the ability to commit abuse, above all else, for instance.

He also sold drugs to finance covert operations and mercenaries to destabilize the #Sandinista government in #Nicaragua ... I am sure now he is supporting the invasion of #Equador

I am surprised the piece of shit is still alive and not in jail ...

@draken way back when presidents still thought they needed a fall guy, because someone might otherwise put limits on them

@draken well, he was pro and contra

Well played. Well played, indeed.

It seems Beltway insiders aligned with evil live to be very old.

@draken I was waiting for a flight a few years ago and Ollie happened to be on the same flight... listened to him go on and on with an ad hoc bunch of admirers... What a self-congratulating blow hard!

[apophis@yourwalls.today]

@draken reading this post without any context seeing it randomly on the federated timeline i thought this was some conspiracy shit until i saw one of the replies connecting the sales to the manufactured War On Drugs and then i looked at the pictures again and recognized the name

...dude's brow ridge and nose really have changed over the years

@draken

The very fact that man is on TV giving opinions on anything is EXACTLY what is wrong with the United States.

No matter the crime, they always have to be resurrected by someone instead of just relegating them to the "made bad choices, cannot be trusted ever again" pile.

@draken

His whole life amounts to being a used ziploc baggie.
DeadReagan would be proud you still carry other people's runny shit without spilling a drop, Ollie.

[ilka4you@mastodon.social]

@draken lol at least he knows what he is talking about.
USamericans keep recycling their felons.

[softspeak@defcon.social]

@draken
The Reagan years were cray-cray, but not as much as these few recent years.

[cvvhrn@sfba.social]

@draken Oh man Ollie North looks like he has been ridden hard and put away wet

[ilka4you@mastodon.social]

@yamabikko @draken he is the USamerican posterboy, just missing rape & child abuse and he could have become president: "Charges & Verdict: Indicted on 16 counts, North was found guilty on three: aiding and abetting the obstruction of a Congressional inquiry, destroying National Security Council (NSC) documents, and accepting an illegal gratuity (a security system for his home). He was acquitted on other charges, including the diversion of funds for personal use."

[jpellis2008@dragonscave.space]

@prism @draken Didn't know he was still alive.

[draken@masto.nyc]

@Ilka4You @yamabikko
That is an interesting question. Could North be in the Epstein files, too?

[prism@infosec.exchange]

@jpellis2008 @draken Fox keeps him well stocked with adrenochrome. It's in his contract.

[catflyhigh@troet.cafe]

@purrperl
according to the wiki
"He was initially convicted on three felony charges, but the convictions were vacated and reversed and all charges against him dismissed in 1991, on the grounds of immunity."

@catflyhigh @purrperl
Yeah, because the dickhead in the White House at the time was pardoning everyone else involved in Iran-Contra.

@draken lookit that..... he's aged into becoming a Bush!
