China 9,085 kg. Thus Afghanistan, which produces 90 per cent of the world’s opium and
heroin, seizes only 27 per cent of the opium and 10 per cent of the heroin. The North
Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) forces have actually made Afghanistan a safe place to
grow opium.” Se Romesh Bhattacharji, A Losing War, Frontline, 7. august 2008. Funnet på:

379 Mike Ruppert var den som først avslørte at Pat Tillman ble drept av sine egne, og at
hæren hadde dekket over dette faktum. I tillegg har broren til Pat Tillman blitt intervjuet på
Alex Jones’ radioshow, og han fortalte der at han trodde Pat ble drept fordi han skulle til å
avsløre hvordan CIA beskyttet opiumshandelen i Afghanistan.

381 “The prohibitive focus of the UN drug conventions has severely hampered medical access
to opioid analgesics around the world. In fact intense undertreatment is reported in over
150 industrialized and developing countries, equaling 80% of the global population. In 2003
the INCB reported that six countries together accounted for 79 per cent of the global
consumption of morphine.
The WHO estimates that ‘annually, up to 10 million people suffer from lack of access
to controlled medications. Nearly 1 billion of those living today will encounter this problem
sooner or later.’
Following the resolutions adopted in 2005 by the World Health Assembly and
ECOSOC, the WHO has, in consultation with the INCB, set up the Access to Controlled
Medications Programme to improve the access to opioid analgesics.”
According to the International Narcotics Control Board (INCB) and the World Health
Organisation (WHO) there is now an unmet demand in opiates. Ironically, the current drug
control regulations hamper access to controlled opiate medications for therapeutic use.
Many patients are unable to access morphine, methadone or an equivalent opioid. Global
medical morphine consumption would rise five times if countries would make morphine
available at the level of the calculated need, according to a recent WHO estimate. “
