The U.S. Government’s inter-agency War On Drugs has been a charade, a farce and a failure.

If we can’t stop large quantities of drugs, money, narco-traffickers and narco-terrorists from crossing our borders with impunity, how are we EVER going to secure our borders against islamo-terrorists and other groups who want to attack the American Heartland?

I was involved, as a policy analyst and facilitator at the U.S. Government policy and resource allocation level, in counter-narcotics efforts during the Bush Sr. Administration and have watched counter-nartcotics efforts closely over the years.  I can tell you with some level of knowledge and authority, that the Bush Sr., the Clinton, the Bush Jr. and the Obama Administrations have all been equally incompetent/delinquent in their counter-narcotic efforts.

Things have unraveled in our counter-narcotics efforts to the extent that we can no longer guarantee the security of American citizens against narco-terrorists in much of the region near the Mexican border that includes parts of Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California.  It has become so bad, that now fully-automatic weapons and other military armament are being used by the narcotics traffickers along the border.  It won’t be long until these modern military armaments will start showing up and being used in any part of the United States by the narco-terrorists.

And yet, the Government continues to treat the narcotics trade and its associated violence as some sort of social problem.  It is much more than that.  It is inter-meshed with our illegal immigration problem, with our social welfare problems, with our islamo-terrorism problem and with the overarching national security problem of maintaining secure borders against crossings by our enemies who would destroy us and by those who profit from the our socially debilitating drug use habits.

I expect that the current Administration, rather than address the REAL problems, will attempt to achieve a political goal of further restricting or curtailing our 2nd Amendment Rights.

Meanwhile, citizens and some times the police, are in REAL mortal danger from well-armed criminals/terrorists in our southern border states and that danger may well rapidly spread out of that area.
