This entry seems too biased against Reagan. It should be edited.--Octaviohpaz 12:49, 14 March 2007 (EDT)
The documents used to source the cocaine assertion don't really seem to do so. Should this be left in? --Dave3172 12:56, 14 March 2007 (EDT)
It should be taken out then.--Octaviohpaz 13:21, 14 March 2007 (EDT)
- I have reverted protions of this text. Page 11 pdf of the Christic Institute FBI/FOIA, for example, says this,
- The information denied you from the following page was withheld by the Office of Independent Counsel /Iran Contra, Document no. 13
- This is contradictory to the claim stated,
- The Reagan Administration sought to hide evidence of its collusion in this illegal circumvention of a Congressional ban on arms support for Iran and the Contras by shredding tons of documents in violation of direct subpoena of these documents. Many details of the affair are still classified and the level to which money from cocaine sales in the US were used to fund this illegal war are shrouded in secrecy, though that this occurred is well documented by the FBI.
