It has been theorized that OF&F was intended to arm favored cartels. Some would consider that a worthy motive or justification, considering that our country has previously armed enemies to fight those we considered worse enemies. Also, remember that some (and many in the media) did not consider the motives underlying Iran-Contra to be worthy.

I have no doubt that MSM coverage of OF&F will increase. Unfortunately, I expect the coverage will follow the path of the
New York Times in decrying an unfortunate situation resulting from the well-meaning but misguided actions of low-level government employees.
