  1. deal with Iran? Apparently so far as to derail an anti-drug trafficking effort waged by Hezbollah.  Project Cassandra began in 2008 after the Drug Enforcement Administration was convinced that Hezbollah was amassing $1 billion a year from drug and weapons trafficking, money laundering and more. Operating out of Chantilly, VA, agents went undercover to map Hezbollah’s illicit networks and follow cocaine shipments. The project got in the way of the Obama administration's nuclear agreement, new reports suggest. But as Project Cassandra reached higher into the hierarchy of the conspiracy, Obama administration officials threw an increasingly insurmountable series of roadblocks in its way, according to interviews with dozens of participants who in many cases spoke for the first time about events shrouded in secrecy, and a review of government documents and court records. When Project Cassandra leaders sought approval for some significant investigations, prosecutions, arrests and financial sanctions, officials at the Justice and Treasury departments delayed, hindered or rejected their requests.
