Shame on the LIEberal media for only reporting the BAD news coming out of Iraq. Finally, they're reporting the good stuff!
U.N.: Iraq Emerging As Drug TraffickerBy SUSANNA LOOF, Associated Press Writer VIENNA, Austria - A U.N. drug body warned Thursday that Iraq is emerging as a transit point for drugs, with traffickers working with insurgents and terrorists, and called on the international community to tackle the problem before it's too late.
Drug traffickers from Afghanistan have begun crossing Iraq to get to Jordan, the exit point for Asia and Europe, said Hamid Ghodse, the president of the International Narcotics Control Board. Afghanistan is the world's main source of opium and its derivative heroin.
Ghodse said traffickers cooperate with terrorist and insurgents, thereby worsening the situation in Iraq. He urged the international community and Iraqi leaders to act before the trafficking route becomes entrenched. All efforts to support Iraq must give due focus to the drug problem, he said.
"You cannot have peace, security and development without attending to drug control," he said.
