Narcoterrorist
Extracted from the Wikipedia article Narcoterrorism.
The term narcoterrorism was coined by former President Fernando Belaúnde Terry of Peru in 1983 when describing terrorist attacks against his nation's anti-narcotics police. The term lacks a universally accepted legal definition. Critics have argued that conceptual imprecision allows the narcoterrorist label to be broadly applied to justify expansive policies under the war on drugs.
