16 Aghans Killed by the FDA!

The horrific tragedy of a US service member losing his mind and killing innocent Afghan people is directly tied to the maddening torture of US soldiers being deployed in a nation ruled by drug lords turned terrorists. Our troops are surrounded daily by peaceful people, Afghans, knowing full well that there is one in every thousand or so, who is a highly paid well trained terrorist bent on their destruction and they have no way at all of distinguishing them, from the rest. Obviously we have been on the other end of countless violent attacks there in Afghanistan.  

This poor insane soldier thought he was taking 'an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth' life for life. The terrorist attacks that have taken place against our troops in Afghanistan were 100% funded by the illegal poppy trade there and most of those funds were acquired from drug users in Western countries. The US FDA ban on doctors being allowed to prescribe these drugs to users in a treatment capacity is at the root of this specific tragedy of mass-murder and behind thousands of others, ongoing today from the Texas border to Kabul.

My heart has been bleeding for 45 years as I watch the 'unintended consequences' of the Food and Drug Administration's effort to eradicate poppy, coca and pot from the face of the earth. Black markets created everywhere from the Americas to Asia and reigning drug lords much more rich and powerful than any of the gangster heroes who were created in our effort to ban alcohol during Prohibition. These drug lords rule nations not just cities or neighborhoods.

Much of Mexico and Pakistan is gone to them, all of Afghanistan is under their control, poor neighborhoods in the US racked with violence and our prison population rate up over 600% since 1970! ALL OF THIS TRAGEDY because the FDA won't allow the medical community to treat drug users as they see fit by prescribing them with safer and supervised versions of the drugs which they are addicted to.

It is immoral and professionally negligent for our media not to refer to this subject when covering all of the tragedies it is directly related to. The US Pharmaceutical lobby has been too successful and it is not in any law abiding person's best interest for this insane FDA policy to continue.

I pray to God for our congress and the president to address this issue directly.
