MIAMI BEACH, Florida - Roughly 7.5 tons of cocaine seized from a submarine-like craft off the Caribbean coast of Honduras is being unloaded in South Florida.
Crew members aboard a Coast Guard cutter are unloading the drugs Tuesday in Miami Beach. Officials say the cocaine is worth about $180 million.
Coast Guard and U.S. Customs and Border Protection crews located the semi-submersible vessel July 13 near Honduras' border with Nicaragua.

The US Military and CIA don't like competition!
Just ask the so-called "Drug War Lords" in Afghanistan
UH OH there goes someones campaign re-election money. The Coast Guard is sure to loose some funding over that one.
U.S military vessels operating in the territorial waters of other countries, stopping, boarding, searching, and sinking ships. It's kind of funny to me --- the Coast Guard and U.S. customs and "Border Security" can't stop people from coming across our borders, so they have enough men, equipment, and time to go 2,000 miles AWAY from our borders to LOOK FOR crime? And isn't the Coast Guard supposed to be protecting OUR coast?
Nothing like eliminating the competition.
Im Clain
I agree. Its like fighting them "over there" so we don't have to fight them "over here".
All the while, leaving our borders wide open.
I guess the terrorists (if there are any other than those who occupy Washington D.C.) are too stupid to come to Mexico and then walk across the border? Duh
