[[File:Barry-Seal.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Barry Seal was the subject of a [[CBS]] ''Eye on America'' investigation by reporter Bill Plante before a decade-long media blackout.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_epmurfIk8&feature=youtu.be CBS Eye on America: Clinton, Contras, Mena], Bill Plante reporting.</ref>]]
The [[CIA]] operated a clandestine gun running operation to supply the Nicaraguan Contras with untraceable weapons using private sources of revenue rather than Federal dollars which would have violated the [[Boland Amendment]] and the Logan act. The US end of the smuggling pipeline was located in Mena, Arkansas under the protection of then-governor Bill Clinton.
