War on Drugs meets the War on Terror - Avi Lewis

submitted by Fedquip

1 decade 7 years 4 months 1 week ago

From Google Video- Afghanistan's three-billion dollar a year opium industry makes it a drug-dependent economy fueling Taliban warlords and government ministers alike...

A report from Al-Jazeera taking you into the Colombian jungle for a behind the scenes look at a U.S. funded counter-narcotics training facility and a visit from some special guests.

Avi talks to Andre Hollis, a former deputy assistant secretary of defense for counternarcotics. He's one of the author's of America's appoach in Colombia, and a player in the current plans for Afghanistan.

That's right kids, the Narco Terrorist Connection*, it's a proven fact that every joint you smoke puts another bullet in Osama bin Laden's AK-47!!! Cocaine caused 9/11!!! Magic Mushrooms caused Pearl Harbor!!!

*Narco Terrorist Connection a TradeMark of the Halliburton Corporation, all rights reserved.

Insightful program at least where Avi talks. The interviewed just evade the questions or give bogus answers. Jaap de Hoop Scheffer and NATO should grow some balls and criticize the US on their way of waging their wars. Bringing the drug war to Afghanistan is a stupid idea and will just anger the population and create more extremists. Also it would be completely ineffective.
