Ep. 04 — Your Brain on War: The relationship between drugs and conflict

War doesn't just consume drugs, it manufactures them. Methamphetamine powered the Blitzkrieg. A Holocaust-connected pharmaceutical company created the pill that became Syria's fifty-seven billion dollar narco-state. DARPA is building a stimulant you activate with a laser beam through a soldier's skull. And the most effective PTSD treatment ever recorded is classified alongside heroin. This is the oldest relationship in human conflict and nobody's talking about it. The Under Report is written and read by Eric Czuleger, author, journalist, and intelligence analyst.
