The War on Drugs. The War on Terror. Narco-Terrorism. Prior to 9/11, the poppy production levels in Afghanistan were at a low and many of the Taliban were against heroin and the poppies. However, since U.S. forces entered after 9/11, the poppy crop has skyrocketed. The UN released a report saying that the six-year boom has lead to the Afghan crop being responsible for 92% of the world's heroin trade. With Homeland Security and the War on Terror, it's amazing that the drug still gets into the USA, one of it's strongest marketplaces.

  • If it's a money maker you can bet that our fearless leaders are in on the trade somehow...as long as they can continue getting their cut of the money pie, why would they do anything other than turn a blind eye...they may even be facilitating its transport, in order to control the competition...

    Don't be alarmed, but isn't it just an odd coincidence that this began after Bush was sworn in...don't put it past them...thugs...
