They never disappear they simply recruit pose into networks not structures they become nodes in a Wider Network and even the commom nodes in these networks you can take down a commom mode but it doesnt dismantle the workings of the network its. A new era for criminal organizations began at the start of the ninetys in a system where everything was accelerating transportation communication cash flow globalization. The triumph of free trade hoped to raise borders. I believe we have made a decision that will permit us to create an economic order in the world that will promote more growth more equality better preservation of the environment and a greater possibility of world peace. In 1904 the United States along with canada and mexico inaugurated the greatest free trade zone in the world no more trade barriers and fewer border controls ringback. Oh mexican factories stepped up the pace and lines of trucks at the u. S. Border grew longer. d hiding drug cargo in the stream of vehicles became the favorite pastime of the mexican cartels implanted along the 3000 kilometer border. Heroin marijuana and cocaine flowed practically unobstructed helming the country mexicos sole Political Party the p r i received it share of the profits oh oh as long as the traffickers take drugs to the gringos and as long as they dont challenge the state its ok as long as they dont act against the new interests of the right to keep power as the state will not interfere with the drug trade very much.

The logistics of the mexican cartels will fool proof they had the upper hand over the colombians and imposed a new division of labor the mexicans took charge of the riskiest a most lucrative component of the traffic cocaine distribution in the United States make an assignment that i dont read up on which most computer. Is almost 40 years kick obvious mess. It in the get out on that system now is it masterful new c. E. O. Live your lives your busted my your boat or camper caylees internet kemah than a platter better lies to sonny yes a producer much of let. In mr nichols who is you know your name she then went to. Mexico got caught up in a never ending spiral of violence meanwhile colombian traffickers stepped back to focus on production covering entire swards a valid and with coca crops. By the end of the ninetys drug production had become concentrated in lois areas where is impossible to unseat. Colombia was the worlds leading cocaine producer and another country emerged as a permanent player in the story of Drug Trafficking afghanistan the worlds top opium producer. Today 80 percent of the worlds heroin is produced in afghanistan the completely illicit drug represents one 3rd of the countrys revenue. From the dusty streets of its capital kabul to the highest levels of state all of afghanistan has become addicted to heroin. An addiction that was born in the eightys in the midst of the cold war. The soviet army occupied the countrys big cities and in the countryside the russians strove to repress afghan resistance. So in the mid 1980 s. They adopted socalled scorched earth policy they decided to destroy the countryside so people could not live there and in order to do so they would burn down orchard this troy what the system poison of alice but not everyone moved instead people started called the rethink opium poppy. For 10 years opium poppy funded the tribal leaders resistance to the soviet occupation what was once a marginal crop became the main source of revenue for peasants and warlords. When the russians left afghanistan tribal leaders clashed in a struggle to take power. Several 1000 afghans died and there was. Throughout the ravaged land one movement channeled the anger of a people prostrated by years of conflict. The taliban gained ground. They had political objectives the didnt like drugs when they started they really were very upset with all those corrupted watch in afghanistan and they really didnt like she wanted to bring law and order because of the kind of law and order we lived with it was their perception show part of that was to stop opium opium us advice is how wrong is not. Everywhere they went the taliban imposed less strict laws closing movie theaters out during music hiding women from view but opium was the livelihood of tens of thousands of families if they banned it the taliban rest losing support in the countryside. To build Political Capital the taliban started saying well the koran says that opium poppy is her and its still how to use it but it would say as long as you produce opium poppy for dick a fuse for the infidels as long as it goes to russia or goes to the us thats perfectly fine with us. O. P. M. Allowed the taliban to finance their advance on kabul the Afghan Capital fell in 1906. Afghanistan was immediately ostracized by the International Community and cut off from the world. Afghanistan was around bridge loan and there was no foreign aid. And so opium was for the knife to cut through the gordian knot of this social puzzle of how to restore economy its an annual crop you put the seed in the ground and a few months later youve got a commodity thats illicit that magically crosses all boundaries you know without any impediment whatsoever. The taliban set up labs on their land and turned afghanistan into the worlds leading heroin producer. Drug money made them both thinking they could Flout International Law in 1908 they granted a safe haven to members of al qaeda. But heroin could not ensure the survival of an entire country. Poverty was rife in afghanistan. The taliban regime sorely needed International Aid in hopes of regaining International Favor the taliban outlawed opium poppy production throughout the country in 2000. Peasants risk to death if they planted the forbidden seed. In just one year nearly every poppy failed in afghanistan had disappeared and the International Community and said things like well you know thank you and the United States undersecretary of state colin powell actually a word the regime i think 41000000. 00 in foreign aid but there are other issues human rights the status of women. And so the un wasnt going to recognize them and so the taliban. You know in retrospect conducted an act of economic suicide. After the attacks of september the 11th 2001 the United States invaded afghanistan. In a matter of weeks the taliban were pushed back into isolated zones doomed to disappear. But patiently little by little they reconquered the land by encouraging the cultivation of opium poppy a miraculous source of funds for the rebirth a movement. In the mid. Stretches of.

Knowledge landowners purged columbias land of its wealth. Gemstones minerals oil rare woods. To extend their operations these large families created militias that would move populations by force colombians called them paramilitaries. With coca crops booming in the countryside drug traffickers also outfitted themselves with paramilitary groups. Made up wrote they had like the around. K. Or young men. A journalist got a gallon of foreign militaries they spray hardly less the error of the last couple of those go a long road will be a signal that told. They were mucho dinero.

Active on a few fronts but with meager means they would extort large landowners and kidnap them for ransom but in the mid ninetys thought guerrillas adapted to the changing times. We dont look at them now michael said about one community of commuters also because theyre about. Dying on the rail not of the of the global gag order but let all of your critics its wrong job it is your little call all of you sitting down the middle and so they say its ok to cultivate coke and being good revolutionaries and trying to build a social base so they start delivering a variety of Public Services flush with the money they get from taxing cultivation. The fat use drug money to buy arms and ammunition but also communication tools that allow them to synchronize their various fronts and make rapid progress.
