Very discouraging that the US Government seems less then forthcoming on this seizure, most likely for political reasons. I was a Biden delegate but very disappointed in his leadership on the over 100,000 overdose deaths. I consider this a form of terrorism and not sure why US Special Forces Operations have not been used to target the cartels invloved. Biden recently authorized Special Forces operations in Africa, but when was the last time an attack by ISIS killed 100,000? Keep up the great reports, Ioan.
Thanks so much for all your support Bobby. It means a huge amount to me. Yes, the level of fentanyl deaths and overdose deaths in general in the United States is catastrophic. Still, it is hard to see what the way out really is. Either way, I have a lot more reporting coming on this issue, and I want to get some good reports of the addiction issues north of the border as well. Best there friend and keep in touch.
I had no idea how big a 2000 pound haul of fentanyl is. If you do the calc with [the density of] sugar, almost a ton [2000 pounds] is a cube of side 82cm [32 inches]. If it is in tablets, it must be much bigger.
It seems rather odd that the press has not mentioned it. What value does that have on the streets of Miami?
Yes, it's colossal and would potentially be worth hundreds of millions of dollars on the streets. It wasn't announced which is why the press haven't mentioned it. Now I am pointing this out, they shouldn't be ignoring it to be fair - it could be one of the world's biggest busts of fentanyl.
