Fast forward to March of nineteen eighty three in Long Island.
They call this New York's Gold Coast, right?
It's big mansions on Oyster Bay.
It's where the money making Manhattan type setup shop, you know, your stockbrokers, your big money lawyers, things like that.
Kukielski comes to the house of the man he met in St.
Thomas, and the vagueness is over.
His sworn account of that March meeting is one sentence, quote, We discussed the importation of twenty thousand pounds of hashish.
The buyer has a source on the far side of the world, the source we spent all of part one on, and what he needs is a man who can make boats meet other boats on open water.
Weeks later, the two of them head off to Karachi, Pakistan.
Karachi, 1983, is not a place you want to visit as a tourist.
It's a place things pass through on their way to a war.
Five, six million people there, martial law, a military dictator who has criminals flogged in public, and a port that has quietly become the loading dock of the CIA's entire Afghan operation.
Crates of weapons coming off ships by the ton, onto trucks which head north on the road.
Refugees flewing the s fleeing the Soviet war machine.
and heroin flood the other way.
Yeah, I mean I think Karachi's still pretty gnarly right now, to be honest with you've been there, no?
Aikens, yeah, yeah.
Great story.
And the guns and the drugs, as they often do, they leak out.
This city that's about to spend a decade drowning in Kalishnikovs and cheap heroin is filling up with both right now at this moment.
