Witness from the inside what is happening at the 2009 UN meeting on drugs. 10 years ago they decided to create a drug free world by 2008. They failed to reach their target, but instead of learning from their mistakes they committed themselves to a drug-free world again. Only the deadline changed: it's 2019. Watch country delegates run away from answering and sleep through drug war mantra.
