I live in Miami. Customs agents used to make seizures daily. Heroin is not produced in the US. It is coming in from Mexico border and planes coming from Venezuela. There have been ZERO reported seizures of heroin. The one exception is a Venezuelan private plane caught in the year 2000, in Orlando, with what at the time was a record breaking 30 lbs of heroin.

This is a 2011 report on Venezuela ties to Hezbollah, and the Muslim Brotherhood, which are also major Narcotics distributors. (heroin)

Government ignoring Iran Venezuela Narco Terrorism Connection

“Press stories, as well as a television documentary, over the past two months have detailed the growing cooperation between South American drug traffickers and Middle Eastern terrorists, proving that the United States continues to ignore the mounting terrorist threat in its own “backyard” of Latin America at its own peril. A greater portion of financing for Middle Eastern terrorist groups, including Hezbollah and Al Qaeda, is coming from Latin America, while they are also setting up training camps and recruiting centers throughout our continent, endangering American lives and interests globally. Some Latin American countries that were traditional allies for the U.S. (including Venezuela) have now forged significant political and economic alliances with regimes whose interests are at odds with those of the U.S., particularly China, Russia and Iran. In fact Iran and Iran’s Lebanese asset, “the Party of God,” Hezbollah, have now become the main terror sponsors in the region and are increasingly funded by South American cocaine.”

Just because seizures aren’t making the news doesn’t mean they aren’t happening. Drug busts happen all the time, but the fact is unless it’s a HUGE amount it’s a dog bites man story, yet another drug bust on the border. Don’t assume just because something no longer interests the press it’s not happening.
