If the profits are be funneled back to al-Qaeda as the articles suggests, then you end up funding your own enemy. Supply dramatically drops, demand remains relatively stable, driving up prices and next thing you know your paying the premum, increasing profits for your own enemy.
I think several billion to purchase the local herion could be used far more resourcefully.

We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many long months of struggle and of suffering. You ask what is our policy? I will say: It is to wage war, by sea, land, and air with all our might and all our strength that God can give us; to wage war against a monstrous tyranny, never surpassed in the dark, lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy. You ask, What is our aim? I answer in one word: Victory Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory, however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival. Winston Churchill
