The War on Drugs' 50th anniversary Part 1: applying cocaine to a CIA penis (graphic)
by Adriaan Alsema January 19, 2021
US intelligence agency CIA claimed cocaine was being applied to the male sex organ after late US President Richard Nixon declared war on drugs in 1971.
Urologists were unable to confirm the intelligence agency’s claim until 2004 when a patient walked into a New York City hospital with penile necrosis.
The 32-year-old man told the doctors he “felt it might enhance sexual intercourse” as claimed by the CIA, which reported in 1971 that “as an aphrodisiac, it is used both internally and externally (applied to the male sex organ).”
. . .
The intelligence agents presumable wrote the report sober, while the man with the dying penis admitted to being drunk when he got the idea.
