CASUALTY REPORTS

Re: "Anti-drug operation questioned - DEA acknowledges arrest 
discrepancies, calls effort a success," Feb. 2.

The Drug Enforcement Administration's hyper-inflating bust figures harken 
back to my time in Vietnam when officers told us to count any dead 
Vietnamese, man woman or child as an enemy killed in action to look good 
for the higher-ups and the politicians. Same government, just a different 
corrupt agency.

As long as we insist on this endless "war," it will never change.
