Need to read it a little more deeply. No one is saying that the CIA sold drugs to cover costs for a war. The statements there are saying that the CIA helped countries in the "Golden Crescent" get it all set up (Laos, Afghanistan, etc). Heck, it was even covered by the Hollywood movie "Air America", not that movies are real life, but the point being that historically it is widely acknowledged there were the very infamous "Air America" flights being run by the CIA carrying drug shipments out of the Golden Crescent in the 70's.
