Wars were fought to impose opium addiction as a form of social control, making huge profits, and keeping the imperial system going, by the British. The CIA today is funded in exactly the same way. Vietnam was targeted in a war to take control of the drug industry from the French. War and drugs go hand in hand and have done so for centuries. Air America was shipping heroin around the world from Vietnam funding the war.

Afghanistan was a war to control the production of opium/heroin. Dubai became the laundry for cleaning up the drug money. HSBC involved in the drugs trade right from the very beginning up to this very day.
