    This was promised his first term, never happened. Meanwhile, he starts a new war on drugs in LATAM. Fun times.

      It’s a war for oil and other resources they are just using drugs as a cover because it’s worked so well in the past.

        Not saying you’re wrong, but what is the latent purpose for using millions of dollars in military firepower to blow up poor drug mules at sea?

            True, but they’re still dead. Mules or not, these are just poor guys in a boat. What is it that these warmongers are trying to do?

              They aren’t trying anything. What they are doing is killing indiscriminately while drumming up a bullshit reason to start a war and invade another sovereign nation for its oil deposits.
