It is this kind of BS that totally discredits the War on Terror. No one believes this. If we took all of the resources we waste fighting the War on Drugs and focused them on the fighting terrorists, there would be no terrorists.
No kidding. This kind of verbal overkill sounds like Reefer Madness to a lot of us and is just impossible to take seriously.
“If we took all of the resources we waste fighting the War on Drugs and focused them on the fighting terrorists, there would be no terrorists.”
You just don’t know what you are talking about. Drug sales are a primary means of raising money for terrorist causes. In Afganistan, if we could stop the production of opium, the Taliban would dry up from lack of funds.
I am surprized that marijuana is still a problem though. In Okla. & MO it used to be the number one cash crop. Of late the former marijuana growers are into meth labs now.
I really have to wonder what the drug Czar has been smoking.We ned to turn the war on drugs into a war on terrorism.
I rest assured that perhaps the majority of home grown hydroponic raised sinsemilla doesn't fund terrorists. ;-)

It’s not BS. We know Al Qaeda was involved with the Opium trade in Afghanistan, and that cocaine pays for a lot of South American terrorism. In the eyes of Islamists, vice industries are fine for raising funds if its in the service of Allah.
