But has it worked? Not really. This is how Brazil’s deadly drug wars have been fuelled by a president who thinks the solution is to throw more guns at the problem. </span></p>

The narco wars of Latin America are beginning to look more and more like open warfare. Ioan Grillo has spent two-decades reporting from the front line of the <a href="https://gangstersinc.org/profiles/blogs/drug-cartels" target="_blank">cartel warzone</a> – spending time with sicarios, traffickers, special forces troops, and the innocent victims caught up in the most intense conflict zone of the <a href="https://gangstersinc.org/profiles/blogs/drug-cartels" target="_blank">War on Drugs</a>. </span></p></div>How Heroin Defeated America in Afghanistanhttps://gangstersinc.org/video/how-heroin-defeated-america-in-afghanistan2021-11-28T11:18:43.000Z2021-11-28T11:18:43.000ZGangsters Inc.https://gangstersinc.org/members/GangstersInc<div><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/9857347093?profile=RESIZE_400x&width=400"></div><div><p><span class="style-scope yt-formatted-string">In 2021, the world watched as the US military retreated chaotically from Afghanistan after 20-years of war. But in Afghanistan, America was defeated as much by the illegal heroin trade as by the Taliban itself. This is how heroin has fundamentally reshaped Afghanistan as a country for decades – and how you can’t understand the West’s failure there without it. </span></p></div>Did the CIA Actually Sell Crack in the 1980s?https://gangstersinc.org/video/did-the-cia-actually-sell-crack-in-the-1980s2021-11-28T11:16:06.000Z2021-11-28T11:16:06.000ZGangsters Inc.https://gangstersinc.org/members/GangstersInc<div><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/9857330088?profile=RESIZE_400x&width=400"></div><div><p><span class="style-scope yt-formatted-string">The rumours have circulated for decades. Did the CIA flood the inner cities of the US with crack cocaine in the 1980s? Was the American government actually responsible for the crack epidemic? Often dismissed as a conspiracy theory, but passionately believed by huge sections of the population – the idea that US intelligence agencies knowingly protected drug traffickers and played a role in bringing cocaine into the US is one of the most often repeated stories of the War on Drugs. But what is the truth to these allegations? It turns out the real story is perhaps even stranger than the street-level gossip. This is how one reporter exposed a web of CIA cover-ups, and how the rest of the media destroyed him for doing so.</span></p>
