Blood and Gold: Golden Lily, Yamashita's Treasure and the Birth of a Multi-Billion Dollar Black Budget

In today's episode we cover the looting of the far east by the Imperial Japanese government and all the gold and other wealth acquired as they pillaged their way across Asia. We cover the operation known as Golden Lily, General Yamashita and his death and how CIA cold warrior Ed Landsdale would stumble his way into this tale. In the next couple of episodes we will cover how the plunder the Japanese acquired during WWII would become a black budget used by American Intelligence to rig foreign elections and commit all kinds of other crimes in the name of defeating communism. We also real briefly cover in today's episode the nexus between the Imperial Japanese and the drug trade, the rape of Nanking and how false flags, propaganda and brute force was sued by the Japanese to secure their empire.
