The U.S. Army Manual defines "terrorism" as "The calculated use of violence or threat of violence to attain goals that are political, religious or ideological in nature."
By its own definition, therefore, the U.S. Government's "war on drugs", ideologically speaking, constitutes an act of terrorism upon its own citizens. Dear God!
