Human Trafficking and the Impact on National Security for the United States

Abstract

Human trafficking, like prostitution, has been around for many years. It is a fact that more money than one can imagine has been made selling humans to the highest bidder. It is also a fact that money made from human trafficking finds its way into the hands of drug lords. Drug lords then turn around and give the money to support terrorist activities. This could not have been made more evident to the United States than on September 11, 2001. What can the United States with the help of the United Nations do about countries actively involved in human trafficking?
