		Thaksin launched the all-out war against drug pushers on Feb. 1, saying rising addiction and trafficking were Thailand's top problems.
		The government has not specified how many of the deaths were in anti-drug operations, but says most were victims of gang wars or were suspected informants killed by drug dealers.
		Drug agencies estimate that more than 1 billion amphetamine pills are smuggled into Thailand each year, and that more than 3 million Thais are addicted to the drug.

	- Law Enforcement Against Prohibition
		The stated goals of current U.S.drug policy -- reducing crime, drug addiction, and juvenile drug use -- have not been achieved, even after nearly four decades of a policy of "war on drugs".
		This policy, fueled by over a trillion of our tax dollars has had little or no effect on the levels of drug addiction among our fellow citizens, but has instead resulted in a tremendous increase in crime and in the numbers of Americans in our prisons and jails.
		But, after all that time, after all the destroyed lives and after all the wasted resources, prohibited drugs today are cheaper, stronger, and easier to get than they were thirty-five years ago at the beginning of the so-called "war on drugs".

		President Fernando Henrique Cardoso of Brazil has opened a meeting of defence ministers from the Americas warning that the war against drugs in Colombia should be carried out through democratic means.
