--The New York Sun (The recent flare-up and 'public awareness' campaign regarding the situation in Myanmar appears to be not just about energy, but narcotics as well. There are plenty of injustices taking place around the world, but for some strange reason the places of economic and strategic value are the ones singled out by our leaders. It is therefore no surprise to learn from this article that, contrary to our government's claims, "local warlords who are fighting the [Myanmar] government control the [drug] trade in the Shan and Wa regions, where the opium is grown." Covert operations and alliances with such groups would be nothing new for the US. --DB)
