Private greed, militant Marxist-Leninism, and Western society's suicidal self-indulgence of illicit narcotics have combined to free Communist insurgents in Colombia and Peru from Soviet support. These narco-guerrillas are not only attacking democratic governments, but are also accelerating rural migration to the urban areas on an inter-American scale. Opulence attracts misery. Thus, Argentina, Venezuela, and the U.S. are particularly affected. Moreover, some nations, profiting from illicit narcotics trafficking, will not fully cooperate in international narcotics or immigration control, since they perceive it to be to their advantage to weaken the West.
