Abstract

The article discusses why Americans must end its government's self-generating wars. By initiating a War on Drugs in Colombia and Mexico, the U.S. has contributed to a parastate of organized terror in Colombia, the so-called AUC, United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia, and a more cruel reign of terror in Mexico, with 50,000 killed in the last six years. By initiating a War on Terror in Afghanistan in 2001, the U.S. has contributed to a doubling of opium production there, making the country now the source of 90 percent of the world's heroin and most of the world's hashish.
