When the activities of one sovereign nation have a destructive and negative effect the conduct and enjoyment of life in another sovereign nation, the consequence of those activities require whatever role the affected nation needs to take. In the course of the ongoing intrusion of an unwanted and destructive economy that is based on illicit and highly anti social drug commerce, acts that approach acts of war are committed.

Whole and major segments of our economy are committed to the purchase of illegal drugs which have destroyed the opportunities, health, and lives of three generations of American citizens. This economic warfare has been conducted while costing billions in law enforcement, health, and social costs. The greed and corruption of the drug cartels is astounding: while contributing nothing in the taxes that would have supported programs to deal with the devastation that is caused, the most powerful leaders are able to bribe, murder, or extort from whole segments of a nations military and government.

The drug cartels control whole segments of cities, including Los Angeles and other major population centers in border states. The complete lack of respect for our laws or for our people is just the tip of the iceberg of lack of concern for human life. The drug cartels actually operate through leadership that is incarcerated in our corrupted private prison system, a system that has actually successfully lobbied in order to increase jail time...and profits.

The drug cartels are financing terrorist acts that are aimed at peoples from all of the world. Arab Muslim terrorists have become powerful and arrogant in their devastating slash through the African nations, sending millions fleeing into chaos, or worse, into the same slavery that Arab Muslims have been transacting for centuries.

The drug cartels are laundering their money through all of the world's financial institutions, influencing governments and taking even more from the people who try, but fail to keep their lives, their communities and their nations safe, sound and whole.

These acts of economic and social devastation are no different than a nuclear, chemical, biological, or conventional act of incursion and war, and the host countries should be considered as  the host of our worst social, economic and political enemies who are at war for profit.

As a result, any action by the United States and other developed nations to defoliate, permanentlly
