The policy (the so-called 'War on Drugs') is built on a gross deception: that drugs other than alcohol, tobacco and caffeine comprise a unique group of substances that present an unacceptable risk to health and welfare. This is wholly incorrect: alcohol and tobacco are the most dangerous drugs in existence. The criminalisation of associations with substances other than alcohol, tobacco and caffeine creates a criminal underclass that is the resource for the strategy.
The so-called 'War on Drugs' has absolutely nothing to do with drug use or drug-related harm of any kind: it is purely a worldwide economic system based on intentionally-created crime.
It results in mass imprisonment, fining, asset forfeiture, execution, wars, state-sanctioned murder and endemic violence etc. It provides the pretext under which huge sums of public money are allocated and sustains a massively profitable black market in substances other than alcohol, tobacco and caffeine.
The US oppresses its own citizens under the name of the policy and this oppression extends worldwide, with governments forced to oppress their own citizenry or be chastised and threatened by the US through the United Nations.
Those who profit from or otherwise wish for the so-called 'War on Drugs' to continue constantly proffer the falsehood that the strategy is related to substance use and the prevention and minimisation of drug-related harm. Those who profit from the oppression of others include but are not limited to enforcement organisations and the prison industry, the legal and welfare systems, academia and a plethora of other industries.
The phenomenon continues due to the power and ruthlessness of the US and its ability to generate economic activity. Its true motives are kept hidden via the mass complicity of governments, the press and those who profit from it.
Unless the policy is recognised for what it actually is, it will continue to impose its oppression and brutality on a worldwide scale. The world will not have the opportunity for a more peaceful existence so long as it continues.
A salient and current example of the lawlessness and brutality of the US is the apparent unilateral strikes on alleged transportation of illicit substances by so-called 'narcoterrorists'. These killings have occurred in international waters and illustrate clearly the arrogance of the US administration. The strikes achieve several important aims for the US and its brutal "War on Drugs':
red bullet pointThe US administration aim is to be perceived as taking steps to protect its citizenry from a unique threat to health and welfare. This of course is complete nonsense. Nonetheless, this course of action bolsters the administration's political advantage in the eyes of those who do not understand the situation.
red bullet pointIf a reduction in supply occurs, this inflates the price of the commodity (given the demand remains strong) thereby ensuring the continuance of the trade. Traffickers will continue to supply the substances due to the substantial and increased monetary rewards available.The vibrancy of the trade ensures the profits and corruption continue thereby sustaining those who benefit from the intentionally-created crime.
red bullet pointThe military action provides 'work' for the military and associated industries involved in supporting it. Using weapons reduces the stockpile and facilitates the production of new stock.
In summary, the actions form part of the active perpetuation of the environment of intentionally-created crime that is the "War on Drugs". The whole situation is designed and maintained by the US for the purposes of financial gain and political advantage.
Since President Richard Nixon escalated the political strategy of intentionally creating crime in order to secure political advantage and financial gain, the United States has forced every country in the world to engage in the policy and thereby brutalise and oppress its own citizens. This is done under the watchful eye of the US and the United Nations (which administers international 'treaties' compelling signatories to engage in the obscenity). The result is a world mired in intentionally-created crime which gives rise to brutality, oppression and numerous human-rights abuses.
