”Sledgehammer” var også et av Oliver Norths alias, og Martin forteller om denne
operasjonen: ”Operation Sledgehammer was essentially a contingency operation to institute
a putch against the United States Government (with the tacit support of said Government)
should knowledge of Iran-Contra operations become publicly disseminated. The feeling was
that if people were to know the quantities of narcotics and weapons being dealt and the
enormity of State-sanctioned fraud against US banks (and other financial institutions which
taxpayers ultimately guarantee), there would be such a reaction among the people that in
order to divert public attention, it might become necessary to institute a putch having the
tacit agreement of the Reagan Administration. I know this sounds draconian, but that was
the level of concern in those years)” Al Martin, The Conspirators: Secrets of an Iran-Contra
Insider, (2002 National Liberty Press), s 15.

489 I artikkelen forteller Costa at han ble gjort oppmerksom på dette faktum for 18 måneder
siden, og at det kan synes som om den økonomiske kollapsen gjorde det nødvendig for
enkelte bankers overlevelse å benytte seg av narkotikaøkonomien.
Han vil allikevel ikke ut med hvilke banker det dreier seg om: "Inter-bank loans were
funded by money that originated from the drugs trade and other illegal activities... There
were signs that some banks were rescued that way." Costa declined to identify countries or
banks that may have received any drugs money, saying that would be inappropriate because
his office is supposed to address the problem, not apportion blame. But he said the money is
now a part of the official system and had been effectively laundered.”

490 En hvitvaskningsekspert fortalte Mike Ruppert at de reelle tallene var langt større enn de
offisielle: ”Its much, much higher than that. Every conference I go to is attended by the CIA,
and we all round the figure off to around $700 billion.” Michael Ruppert, Crossing the
Rubicon (New Society Publishers 2004), s 58.
