Over 50 bags of hashish litter the deck of the dhow

Geesh, too stoned to even stow their gear.

Let's see how many people know what the hashish resin (also referred to as oil) is added to in order to give it form and bulk.

I wonder if they're still using Coasties to actually perform the boardings like they used to? Anybody know?

Back in the day, many Navy ships carried a USCG boarding team, and during the boarding ops they'd actually run a CG ensign up the mast.

The problem is that this boat was just a little dhow and yet was carrying $10 million in drugs.

Get rid of the "war on drugs", and a boat big enough to carry ten million dollars worth of the stuff would be the size of a medium-sized tanker. The navy's job would have to be easier.

Paging Maxine Waters and the staff of The San Jose Mercury News:
here's another CIA operation for y'all to expose.
