How the US Failed to Take Down Narco-terrorism

Hezbollah is a Lebanese terrorist organisation and the political party responsible for deadly attacks all over the world. This is the story of how they became major players not just in the Middle East hash trade, but in the global cocaine and amphetamine business – trafficking tons of drugs across the world, and laundering hundreds of millions of dollars for South American cartels. Even murkier is how a major DEA investigation into these activities was allegedly undermined by the CIA and the White House – leading agents from different agencies to all end up accusing each other of endangering national security.
