As reports emerge that U.S. forces may have targeted survivors in the water after striking alleged drug-running vessels in the Caribbean, serious questions surface about legality, morality, and strategy. From the shaky fentanyl narrative to the blurred line between military action and intelligence operations, Chris asks what really happened—and why no one seems eager to give answers.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Watchdog on Wall Street podcast explaining the news coming
out of the complex worlds of finance, economics, and politics
and the impact it we'll have on everyday Americans. Author,
investment banker, consumer advocate, analyst, and trader Chris Markowski.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Is this a war crime or not? Again, people are
batting back and forth in regards to the well the
drug boats. This has been going on since September. I
think if I'm not mistaken, and I've weighed in some
degree and I've gotten some blowback from some of the
listeners there in regards to what we're doing with our

(00:41):
military in the Caribbean. Again, I find it very hard
to believe that these are fentanyl boats coming from Venezuela.
That makes no sense whatsoever from a business standpoint, when
the fentanyl could be made for a hell of a
lot cheaper as far as you know, just movement purposes

(01:04):
are concerned, from Mexico to the United States. You don't
need a large square foot area to do it. It's
not a difficult thing to put together. The precursors are there.
Why would you Why would you do it on the
equator and then go through planes, trains, and automobiles to
get it to the United States. Cocaine, different story anyway,

(01:24):
neither here nor there. And again, you know it's people
that have been lost loved ones to the terrible problem
that we've seen with drugs. But again, let's be honest. Okay,
this all started with what this all started with the
Sackler family and OxyContin and getting the entire country addicted

(01:45):
to it, and then they can't get the drug. Then
they move on to heroin, and it just it has snowballed.
And again over one hundred thousand people per year dying
to this. I get that. I understand that. Now using
our military to target drug boats, I guess okay, if

(02:10):
you want to, you're calling these these various different organizations
terrorist organizations. Now I open game. I guess you can
target them. Then again that's you know, they're they're batting
that back and forth. Uh. The latest on this is
that boats have been targeted, there were survivors in the water,

(02:32):
and then we are turning around and shooting a missile
at the survivors. If that's true. If that's true, could
be me, call me crazy. Aren't you supposed to give
safe harbor to people that you know are no threat eminent. Uh,

(02:57):
we're just supposed to summarily just start killing. But like that, again,
we don't know. Yeah, basically everyone right now is playing
kind of Uh, Sergeant Schultz, I see nothing, I know nothing.
I know you know that that whole thing right now,
there's going to be an investigation. Someone will end up

(03:20):
taking the fall for this. If this is the case. Again,
this is something that I could see our intelligence services,
the CIA doing, but enlisted men having them do something
like this, I don't think, by any stretch of the

(03:40):
imagination is a great idea. Listen, I am under no illusion.
You know the things that our intelligence services did war
on terror, you know, extracting information again, it canne I
only want we all know it went on this. You

(04:01):
know again, you've got enlisted men that are doing this
kind of blurs the line to some degree. If you
asked me, if you asked me, not not a not
a very good look. And you know, correct me if
I'm wrong. I mean, could me me call me crazy?

(04:22):
You get survivors, there aren't they useful to you in
regards to again extracting information, you know, finding out who
they work for? I mean that, you know, why would
you need to wipe them all out again. I'm just
asking questions here, but the look right now, quite frankly,

(04:44):
