Welcome to the next Afghanistan. Mexico, run by warlords.

It's already run by an oligarchy, like we are, and when it suits our
needs we, the U.S. government facilitates smuggling and disrtibution of
drugs, from the "Golden Triangle" to Afghanistan to Central America.

Dark Alliance: The CIA, the Contras, and the Crack Cocaine Explosion
by Gary Webb

In July 1995, San Jose Mercury-News reporter Gary Webb found the Big
One--the blockbuster story every journalist secretly dreams
about--without even looking for it. A simple phone call concerning an
unexceptional pending drug trial turned into a massive conspiracy
involving the Nicaraguan Contra rebels, L.A. and Bay Area crack cocaine
dealers, and the Central Intelligence Agency. For several years during
the 1980s, Webb discovered, Contra elements shuttled thousands of tons
of cocaine into the United States, with the profits going toward the
funding of Contra rebels attempting a counterrevolution in their
Nicaraguan homeland. Even more chilling, Webb quickly realized, was that
the massive drug-dealing operation had the implicit approval--and
occasional outright support--of the CIA, the very organization entrusted
to prevent illegal drugs from being brought into the United States.
