The Counterproductive War to End Counterproductive Wars

In a Memorial Day blog post, Arianna Huffington wrote:

"For a long time now I’ve written about the need to put an end to the failed drug war -- a $40 billion dollar a year debacle that has...siphoned resources from the war on terror."

Helping to end the counterproductive war on drugs by making it unaffordable would give the war on terror a tangible accomplishment. Next problem: what sort of counterproductive war will we have to start to end the war on terror, and how much will it have to cost?
