The expanding opium trade is threatening to destabilize the Afghan government and turn the conflict-ridden country back into a safe haven for drug traffickers and terrorists. This paper examines the nature of the opium problem in Afghanistan and analyzes the allied strategy to counter this growing crisis. In analyzing the current counternarcotics strategy, it points out pitfalls including the counterproductive aspects of opium eradication. Finally, changes to the strategy are proposed, which include increasing troop levels and eliminating national restrictions, substantially increasing financial aid, deemphasizing opium eradication, focusing on long-term alternative livelihoods, aggressively pursuing drug kingpins and corrupt government officials, and exploring the possibility of Afghanistan's entry to the licit opium market. 517 3 $aOpium and Afghanistan :$ereassessing United States counternarcotics strategy 517 3 $aReassessing U.S. counternarcotics strategy 606 $aOpium trade$zAfghanistan 606 $aDrug traffic$zAfghanistan$xPrevention 606 $aNarco-terrorism$zAfghanistan$xPrevention 606 $aDrug control$zAfghanistan 607 $aAfghanistan$xPolitics and government$y2001- 615 0$aOpium trade 615 0$aDrug traffic$xPrevention. 615 0$aNarco-terrorism$xPrevention. 615 0$aDrug control 700 $aGlaze$b John A$01417836 712 02$aArmy War College (U.S.).$bStrategic Studies Institute. 801 0$bGPO 801 1$bGPO 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910698381203321 996 $aOpium and Afghanistan$93527453 997 $aUNINA
