#3 Start wiping out the poppy fields and they'll come back right fast, whether they end up harming civilians or not.

#4 Why don't we quit boxing them in? They seem to be able to escape better when they are surrounded.

#5 gorb, it's December. I'm pretty sure the poppy fields are harvested for the year. I suppose you could salt the fields, but I doubt they could haul enough salt to make a difference. And hosing them down with herbicides will only give the poppies a leg up on the weeds for next spring.
