Completely agree on the cartels, whether designated terrorists or just foreign invaders. Yes you could greatly suppress the drug trade with tactics totally unlike what was done with booze, just like you could bring crime in Chicago to a minimum with brutal methods, but Americans don't have the stomach for it.
This is interesting lens you see this through. Care to elucidate? Like ideal scenario you hve in mind but not a 30K foot view but rather a more granular delineation. Thanks, UTC. to me it doesn't seem possible, but what the fuck do I know. i have limited and poor intelligence.
You seem to be pragmatic and accomplished so I'm very interested. How could we invade Chicago? Thanks, man

This is not going to happen obviously, but you'd have to militarily occupy large parts of Chicago, seek the support of citizenry who are in effect imprisoned in their homes right now, and search and kill those in the drug trade, accepting that there will be mistakes. And track down and kill gang members regardless of what they are doing. That's the only way I could see doing it. Needless to say it's not going to happen.
