Iran battens down its border trying to slow smuggling from Afghanistan's opium boom

[liberalnurse]

In the face of Afghanistan's unprecedented boom in opium production, neighboring Iran is trying to batten down its border to slow down smuggling, building moats, walls and other large-scale projects.Neighboring Afghanistan has all the makings of a narco-state and is the main source of drugs coming into Iran and headed to other markets in Europe and the United States.

The US did help restart Afghanistan's opium production after all, might as well let our drones here at home have a taste of our product.
