RE: Is there a correlation between drug epidemic and war?
The US invaded Afghanistan to take back control of the poppy fields that the Taliban had destroyed and made illegal. US soldiers now guard the poppy fields.
Another reason was to build a pipeline through Afghanistan to connect to the very large energy markets in India and Pakistan.
Thirdly, the US wanted control of the minerals in the ground e.g. lithium.
They also wanted to create a never ending war on terror.
The US invaded Afghanistan 4 weeks after 9/11. It takes more than 4 weeks to prepare all of your warships, troops, supplies etc for war. The warships were on standby and the invasion was planned long before 9/11.
We were lied to, again!
You summed it up better than I. RESPECT
