2: Narco Terrorism & The Forever War

Missile strikes. Narco terrorism. A president taken in the night.

In the first episode of Narco Warriors, Lindsay Charlton sets the scene for a global conflict that has entered a dangerous new phase.

As the United States declares drug traffickers “narco terrorists” and launches missile strikes on suspected smuggling boats in the Caribbean, our insiders ask a fundamental question: 

Has the war on drugs crossed a line?

From Caracas, former UK Drug Liaison Officer Graham Dick gives an exclusive first-hand account of life in Venezuela following the removal of President Maduro, describing missile strikes in the capital, fear on the streets, and the immediate impact on drug trafficking routes.

In the studio, veteran investigators Philip Matthews and Graham Honey draw on decades of operations across Latin America and the Caribbean to explain Venezuela’s true role in the cocaine trade, how smuggling routes really work, and why killing traffickers at sea may damage intelligence gathering rather than stop the trade.

Then former FBI agent James Gagliano offers the U.S. law-enforcement perspective, weighing deterrence against due process, while author and journalist Peter Walsh examines the legality and morality  of targeted killings in the modern drug war.

These are the Narco Warriors.
