A lot of the major ****-ups in Iraq and Afghanistan involve sanctioned

The trucking industry banned the use of 'bennies' years ago, but the

It's use can lead to irrational behaviour and makes it easier to commit
war crimes without having your conscience bother you. It takes a morally
bankrupt government to sanction drug abuse among the troops.

The drug is also used in the dxAce community to enhance the 'Mutual
Respect' they group feel on a weekly basis.

My feeling is that those drugs are the prime reason that 'dumbass Canucks'
exist.
