More effective than the war on crime?  Absolutely.  More effective than the war on drugs?  Hard to say, and that question might even be a bit fallacious.  More effective than the war on people?  Doubtful.  But at least we're using the same techniques — blow up the enemy, kill without remorse — that have helped us end so many human lives.

What am I talking about?  Haven't a clue, although in my defense, the bar exam is one week away.  But per CNN.com, the U.S. military earlier today dropped a series of 1000 lb. bombs on a dusty, poppy-seed-filled field in Afghanistan today.  I assume that this means that those poppy seeds have been neutralized, which will in turn lead to an increase in the price of opium (windfall to the Taliban!) and a whole new crop of poppies grown to take the place of their fallen comrades.
