Am I allowed to reply to my own comment on Voat, or is that a big no-no? Anyway, I shouldn't make grand statements without at least some source to back me up. Surprisingly, Wikipedia is, for once, a half-decent starting point for research on this question: Allegations of CIA drug trafficking After that, go to a search engine (e.g. DuckDuckGo) and type in terms like "Opium Wars", "MI6 Global Drug Trade", "Bill Clinton Mena Airport". Don't trust me, start doing your own research. You'll be a better person for it ;-)
