  a film by Jeanette Groenendaal

As long as it's light it's right!

Have you ever reviewed those tapes?

Not this part, never.

I only saw the printouts.

I never saw this part.

It's so obvious how this operates...

G-netwerk

pro paranoia pictures

 

This is the aftermath,

It reveals a lot.

It really does....

D U T C H   C O C A I N E   F A C T O R Y

Here...

About the New World Order....

...and about implants, Bilderberg group...

...because they also have....

.....

 There is no way of escaping it.

 I think, to make a long story short...

....it has eveything to do....

...with the effect...

of depleted uranium.

That's my idea.

I realise, it is very, very dangerous to talk about it.

I got to this subject, reading on...

...a website named...

...Angular Momentum Anomalies...

I think, I also found the name of a videotape about this...

...3 hours long, but...

...it's vanished! Since 24 hours ago.

And then, we all started to realise that somebody

who talked about it got severely harrassed.

Doctors in America losing their jobs.

Laboratories are shut down..

...television stations are bought up...

No DNA from our planet...

Definitely this is going to kill the population in the long term

...and this, with all the reports I read on it...

...they would have stopped using it...

...if there wasn't an antidote!

That's impossible!

So, there must be a secret...

It fits very well into the philosophy of a worldwide holocaust.

What´s your idea about that philosophy?

Unbelievable!

Nothing is left that hasn't been ruined!

You see, that's why there are no more sparrows.

You see, I am right.

The eagle.

These are very important!

Those grey discs...

...make whole armies sick...

  ...in Iraq.

Microwaves hurt so much...

...all they can do  is run away! Just with microwaves.

It was my only option, you know...

So what happened to me in jail?

Indeed, I shrunk 3 inches...

...lost 20 pounds in weight...

...I was harrassed non stop!

...not been able to write...

...to talk, to walk...

...goddammit!

Hello, Leon van Kleef.

Wow, It's hot under the sun of Alkmaar.

OK.

We'll be in touch, OK?

When the S.R.M. Law  was introduced,

 Special Research Methods Law,

 direct wiretapping was allowed,

  and hidden surveillance permitted.

I would call this theft and spying.

Consequently, bugging devices are placed in private houses.

In Driebergen we have an Undercover Service,

a Police Unit specialised in this field.

  They secretly attach a tracking device under your car,

 or break into your car and hide a camera or microphone

and everything will be recorded.

During a period of one year for example...

...50,000 phonetaps can be transcribed.

 They create an interesting case from bits and pieces.

This generates a massive amount of administration.

 Leading towards a specific  kind of criminal law practice.

No actual crime has occurred,

...they expect something to happen...

...there are no witnesses, no declarations.

 Just the fact of digitally chasing a person.

I can observe this phenomenon,

but  I don't get it,

then again, I am part of the system,

 I earn my living from it, 

just like the Judge, the Prosecutor,

and the police officer as well.

I  never talk openly on the phone.

 and if somebody asks: 'Can you take  the thing along ?'...

 I say: 'What thing? What are you talking about?'

To get it clear.

But too clear could be suspicious as well,

for the eavesdropper might consider it as coded language.

This implies that they target conversations with my clients.

I can't mention what it's really about,

I have to keep the conversation vague.

Just communicating the essentials.

And why? Not that I have anything to hide.

But I have professional secrets

Being a criminal lawyer.

but in the interest of my clients,

I just can't talk about their case on the phone.

 Eavesdroppers have a certain idea

what the conversation should be about...

...or presume the conversation must be about...

that is the drugs trade.

Average Dutch people think,

you can only be wiretapped  if you are a suspect.

No, you can be bugged

when a random suspect dials your phone number.

This leads us to the fact that Holland,

together with Italy...

...has the biggest wiretapping program in the whole world!

Even more than countries you would suspect, like America.

No, Holland is number one!

What happens is, because of these research methods,

you do have  a suspect...

...but no offence yet.

And if you keep on investigating,

they will likely find something suspicious.

The scary thing is,

imagine a big team, like the FBI, 

...investigating a group of suspects for 1 year...

...they find some inside information,

and a lot of activity is going on in this group.

After a year, are they able to tell their superior

Listen Boss, everything is thoroughly investigated...

...don't worry.

They are innocent !

That's true, you know.

Casa Migrante is a foundation that offers help...

  and social work to Spanish-speaking migrants in Holland.

Spanish people but also Latin Americans,

 associated to this church.

Every Sunday there is a very lively Spanish mass

attended by 200- 500 Latinos

People come to socialise, look for a job, sell food

Frequently, there are men in the back with mobile phones

In the last row all the coke dealers

are openly discussing kilos and all.

 Everybody knows them, they stay in the back

they are big importers mostly Colombian.

The police used to control outside,

they are  fully aware.

At  a certain point the boys collect, with the ....

You see a few people donating Є50, that's a lot.

They show off a bit, the big boys

they make money

and the priest is really pleased with this Є50 as a matter of fact.

In 1878 we imported the coca plant to the Netherlands,

and brought it to the botanical garden.

It's cultivated in greenhouses.

The Colonial Bank  realised they could make a fortune!

 A bank, Holland, merchant spirit, etc.

They laid out coca plantations in Java,

 our former colony,

as well as in Sumatra, but mainly in Java,

coca plantations were laid out.

The Javanese cocaine had a great reputation...

...even better than the Peruvian cocaine.

At the end of the nineteenth century...

annual reports of the Colonial Bank prove that

...between 34 and 81 tonnes of coca plants were harvested.

That was not so much...

...but export grew to 1300 tonnes in 1914.

At a certain moment, business was going so well,

we started a company called D.C.F.

The Dutch Cocaine Factory.

The first factory was built on the 'Schinkelkade'.

This building doesn't exist anymore.

It's gone.

This is when the Dutch Cocaine Factury was established.

 We exported anywhere around the world.

 We dominated the market for half a century.

Cocaine was a legal product.

 In 1928 2,000,000 pounds of coca leaves

were waiting to be exported.

Cocaine became increasingly popular in Europe.

Cocaine derivatives were widely available in Holland,

for example in the red light district in Amsterdam.

Doctor Jose Alvares, I'm not sure about his real name,

it sounds really exotic...

...he owned a cocaine warehouse in the city...

 preparing his medicines.

In drugstores or in pharmacies, cocaine was freely available.

This chemist made cocaine wine...

that he sent to

politicians, the Pope, the American President...

 providing a excellent mood.

The free trade, without any treaties, was about to change...

...when America imposed the opium law.

America, not benefiting from this cocaine trade

...prohibited the entire trade.

America controls global drugs policy.

The Netherlands wages war on drugs

like no other European country.

The only country supporting the American military

in the Caribbean

to make the war on drugs in Latin America,

...actively and intensively!

It's a religious war, I would say...

It's a jihad against drugs and drugs use.

Cocaine is not the biggest problem in Colombia,

but the fact they have oil.

If you just look at the level of violence...

...the paramilitairy massacres

don't overlap the map of coca plantacions,...but where minerals and oil are found.

Now  multinationals enter the picture...

...BP, British Petroleum.

The war on drugs is a cover up,

to get away with something else.

 If cocaine were legal, Colombia would be better off.

That's true.

Speaking about social costs

economically, it would put farmers out of business.

Because the business would be immediately incorporated.

The Netherlands make a lot of money out of this.

Ten percent is for the national market...

...that's a small percentage.

Ninety percent is for export, Germany...

...Eastern Europe, France, England.

Holland is an important transit country.

If you are a Dutch importer...

...you buy from a Colombian gang for Є2000...

...in Columbia...

.and you sell for tenfold.

what they call 'the second hand'...

 the first distributor.

Suppose you are a distributor...

you sell for this money,

...you make a lot of money.

One container is worth millions!

Importers make shiploads of money.

Over here.

The fruit and vegetable terminal,

...is important  for cocaine trafficking.

Economists say...

...in Colombia...

if legal, the price of cocaine would not exceed the coffee price.

It's been a year since Evo Morales was elected in Bolivia,

and this Latin American country

had its first indigenous president.

Today is his 2nd visit to the Netherlands.

-As long as the benefits are equally divided!-

Hello, Ton Nabben.

Hello, Leon van Kleef.

Hello. Ton Nabben.

-Hi Arend!

I have been told this factory is about a hundred years old.

Bales of cocaine were stored here.

This was in the times of the Dutch East India Company.

In Amsterdam there were several storage places

for Javanese coca leaves.

All financed by the Dutch Bank.

The Colonial Bank.

Official records say about three million kilos annually.

Let's move to the other room.

This is the raw material...

...the leaf, you can smell it

- take a sniff.

A vague smell of stinky socks.

A musty fragrance.

The coca plant takes five years to grow to maturity.

You can harvest every year thereafter.

We know it's punishable 

but we revalue the position of the forbidden coca leaf,

 and investigate if it is possible to sell

unsprayed, fair trade quality, in smartshops.

Research on water from the Po River,

...shows how much cocaine is being used...

This means we can extract the demand

How high it is.

Yeah, you need lots of leaves in order to...hum...

If you manufacture cocaine it produces a lot of inconvenience.

Like smell, toxicity and raw material you need,

In fact, all the shit you need,

in large quantities

and it's hard to do it without arousing suspicion.

Obviously, there is still a lot of money to be made...

Yeah

-Yeah

One kilo of cocaine, how much does that sell for wholesale?

Somewhere between 25 and 30 thousand euro?

But It's all fake!

-Just one kilo.

It's all made artificially.

It's not original anymore.

In Paramaribo 3000 kilos of soda were stored...

Soda is the basic raw material of cocaine nowadays.

It's a matter of logistics.

Suppose I would like to import cocaine

  and If I know the customs and police are looking for cocaine

 than I can try not to import cocaine

- yeah.

 import something they're not looking for.

-yeah, yeah.

 Again it's a substitute, it's not the real thing anymore.

I have been told, even in this trade

the 'Frau Antje' effect is rather strong..

Many countries swear by this Dutch product.

Well, our Javanese cocaine had a very good quality, so...

...obviously, this must be a Dutch trade mark...

...wich guarantees a certain quality worldwide.

Partly myths, but...

Partly myths, yeah.

It's almost impossible to believe people get hooked...

 this quality is an automatic detox.

Good quality is hardly available, in my opinion,

I assume, only governments have a good supply.

You think, they are well provided?

Sure!

Aha, that's remarkable,

the trade was organized by the Dutch Government until the 1960s,

it was a bestseller.

The Dutch Cocaíne Factory produced amphetamines, heroin,

It was an illegal drug's production house.

Buying is legal according to the Opium Law.

Possession, trading, dealing are illegal.

To supply.

-Supplying is illegal.

You don't have to buy a kilo all at once.

Suppose your costs are Є30 or Є35 a gram,

you cut and pack it,

10 to 20 percent.

Yeah, but that's rock bottom,

that's where the whip cracks hardest.

But if you're able to bring in a 1000 kilos...

Concerning that, you'd better do it on a larger scale.

The classic scene, when he pushes a mountain into his nose.

Yes, but this is barge flour of course.

Made transparent.

Do you know anything about the Blue Lotus, the Nimphaea?

Blue Lotus is hallucinogenic?

Oh no, it's the Morning Glory.

It's an aphrodesiac and an upper.

The Egyptians, the Pharaohs used it.

It was a pleasure to meet you.

Unbelievable, that it's not remembered, this kind of thing.

How about local watchers in your new place?

Have they been alerted yet?

Spies all around yeah, a hell of a lot.

Things happening in the street, telephone bugged

...even underwater divers...

...on street lanterns.

Very powerful.

The lawsuit against me, in itself

...is part of perpetrating!

 24/7

Truly turning life sour,

alarming neighbours in order to isolate,

and this way, manipulating towards suicidal practices.

Imagine how many people they need.

To do the job, so to speak?

Yes... hundreds of thousands!

 Java island chance to bus 22.

They fear this new law proposal, on free drug supply

Just give me another cigarette.

Much healthier

Is that right 1.5 kilo?

1.5 kilo, I don't know...look...

I buy a gram of course. I can't have a kilo at home.

...That's Є50...

...Є50...

...Є50 per gram...

...so Є50,000 per kilo.

10 is 1,000,000

6 kilogram is...

...6 million euro man...

...you're right...

...times 4...

...I mean, x 40... 10 x 4 is 40 years...yes...

...24 million.

Everyone says;  you are still looking great Arend.

 But I went insane, didn't I...

You should say,...it preserves.

But, you didn't go insane at all.

That's what they all say, but going mad is something else

That's something else.

But without coke I would have gone crazy, that's for sure.

Stayed crazy, stayed,

I checked it lately with an old friend, who said.....

you're much more normal than you used to be.

How do you manage?  Prozac?

No, cocaine.

Excuse me!

Cocaine.

That's a bit more expensive.

Mmmwwa...

...20 million.

I thought it would be a good investment.

The annoying thing is,

 that hobbled law.

Look!  Today for instance, I have been clean for at least 2 or 3 days.

I stopped it...

not again will I

No!

They can't get me started again.

I don't want to get locked away for using some fucking cocaine.

Completely running out

Imagine you catch a Morgellon disease...

No...I quit, I've had it!

The judge is right.

Ah...what's that?

I don't want it no more.

Ok...

It may preserve, but...

...it's a total waste!

It's for the elite...hmm.

What shall I do, without coke?

Without coke It doesn't work either.

Bake a cookie? Better bake coke!

Ok...stop all this, let's just chill out..

Shit!

Soon we'll get a free supply, did you know that?

They should get rid of heroin...

...heroin and valium...

Viagra also; far too bad for the stomach.

They should get rid of it.

With some coke you don't need all of that...

...you don't need no chick...nothing at all...

...you think.

Cut!

Cut.

I meant cut coke!

Look! I even didn't lose weight.

I have to make a phone call.

Are you still under siege?

- I'm sure.

 They must know you are here as well.

I'm sure they do.

Our telephone is...uhhh...

Right now they must be quite confused.

They will say, what's happening with Arend?

They must think, this can't be true.

They'll say: it's a double!

Yeah...that's his biggest trick!

They'll say, there's something hidden.

It's pure madness.

Yeah, you were a heavy user.

For a long time.

 Intensive use for a very long time.

That's premiere league!

Four weeks, 24/7...

...call it brainwashing...

yes.

...if it is, which I doubt.

It's very thorough.

Germans are organised, on time and pure...

...it's perfectly organised..

The most beautiful clinics in the world.

It's like a health spa.

 A swimming pool, restaurant, you name it.

It's the greatest success story.

Half of the patients are doctors...

Yeah,..yeah,.. so you mentioned.

...and dentists.

If I could...

living in peace without would be an enormous relief.

That's what it is, it's liberation.

 And that's how you feel.

That's how I feel.

The pleasure was all mine.

We will make a step forward.

I will provide the solution.

Now it's getting really farty...

Arend, success!

Can you imagine my unrestrained fantasy at this moment?

 Inhale...

 look around and think ...STONED

Fuck, cut, cut!

Can you imagine my unrestrained fantasy at this moment?

You sit in that chair...

light a cigarette.

Take a deep breath,

It's all mine!

This was the 42nd clean day of Arend ter Horst.
