Description
Long before Mexico, Colombia, and Afghanistan
became notorious for their contributions to the
global drug traffic, Lebanon was a special target
of U.S. drug agents for harboring the world's
greatest single transit port in the international
traffic in narcotics. In the words of
one American official, quotcerain of the largest
traffickers are so influential politically,
and certain highly placed officials so deeply
involved in the narcotic traffic, that one might
well state that the Lebanese Government is in the
narcotics business.quotUsing previously secret
government records, The Lebanese Connection
uncovers for the first time the story of how
Lebanon's economy and political system were
corrupted by drug profits8212an how, by
financing its many ruthless militia, Lebanon's
drug trade contributed to the country's greatest
catastrophe, its fifteen-year civil war from 1975
to 1990. In so doing, this book sheds new light
on the dangerous role of vast criminal
enterprises in the collapse of states and the
creation of war economies that thrive in the
midst of civil conflicts. Taking a
regional approach to the drug issue, Jonathan
Marshall assesses the culpability of Syria,
Israel, and of Palestinian factions and other
groups that used Lebanon as their battleground.
On the international level, he documents
Lebanon's contribution to the hard drug problem
of major consuming countries, from the days of
the quotFrech Connectionquotthrough
the quotPiza Connection,quotas well as
Lebanon's unrivaled place in the global
hashish market.
