America intentionally exported the War on Drugs. It would sanction and threaten to invade those who didn't want to join. Which is the height of hypocrisy given the CIAs involvement in facilitating the drug trade. A good example is what happened with Noriega in Panama.

A cynical person may think that that the modern war on drugs is intended to increase profits for the CIA for things that they couldn't ask the tax payers for.

An extra cynical person may think that the CIA has found a new and much cleaner way of raising money via the tech startup industry.

But you'd have to be pretty cynical to believe that.

Cannabis played (plays) a part in Hindu rituals/festivals - Bhaang in holi comes to mind.

Guess which country has rules to bend to the war on terror?
