U.S. war on drugs started…….what 40+ years ago. Fortunately it hasn’t progressed much so we can enjoy the next few season of Narcos - demand has only ever increased so don’t expect much here; the real prize is Venezuela oil reserves?
Where can stop one? If can stop, y'all will see news reporting about Peru farmers starving to death first..
Peru is a major producer of coca, the raw material for cocaine, and has been significantly involved in the illegal drug trade, particularly in exporting cocaine to the United States. Efforts to combat drug trafficking in Peru have faced challenges, including the involvement of local coca growers and organized crime.

How come they don't shoot all the drug dealers in their own country? Even if Venezuela is trafficking drugs into US directly, there must be a network of drugs dealers within US distributing the drugs? US doing anything about that like sending Marines or MQ9s after them?
