Those opium poppys and their farmers...We need to get in there with A-10s and/or B-1s...maybe bring some F-111’s out of mothballs and lay some napalm onto those crops! Screw those farmers. If we can go after moonshiners here in the states then why not burn those bastards out of business in the Middle East and Mexico?
Just guessing here but maybe this has something to do with that.
That's what I've been wondering about for a while. We have Predators up looking for terrorists. When one of them notices a poppy crop, note the coordinates. Then send another Predator with a crop-dusting attachment to spray RoundUp on the field. After a while of spending time on a crop only to get it destroyed before harvest, maybe they'll give up.
Their NOT doing this makes me suspect somebody besides the obvious parties is making money off it.
