Perhaps the question of whom to arrest and whom to send back into battle should be cast in different terms. Which should we fear more--terrorists bent on destroying a nation and an idea or domestic addicts who owe their allegiance to a drug?

From clips of a girl named Raquel in Peru, who lives with a drug-resistant strain of tuberculosis and will not kiss her son for fear of infecting him, to Mechai in Thailand, who single-handedly distributes condoms in brothels across the country to slow the progression of AIDS, making condom balloons along the way.
