Drug ‘terrorism’
NZPA-Reuter Washington Drug runners have created “little Beiruts” in major United States cities and could push the United States into the kind of violence which has crippled Colombia, according to a new study. Prepared by the RAND Corporation, a Californiabased policy research group, the study described warfare between drug gangs as domestic terrorism and said it was “more ferocious than the politically motivated violence in many other countries.” The study singled out Miami, Los Angeles and Washington, D.C., and said violence there had reached alarming levels.
