And if Farc were some rightist, pro-USA insurgency attempting to topple an
anti-USA
Colombian government, that we would be praising their cocaine trafficking.
A good
example is opium production in Afghanistan: When the Taliban was part of
the
Mujahadeen coalition to fight Soviet occupation back in the 1980s, it and
the other
coalition members used the traditional opium crop to finance their
insurgency. That
was just fine with the USA at the time, but once the same Taliban turned
their
attention from Russians to Americans, their drug trafficking became
intolerable and
equivalent to terrorism.
