[QUOTE]Originally posted by turbokid: [QB] a good point was brought up by IWISHIHAD the opium trade: a few months ago i saw a quasi-documentary about how the war on terror was more about drug smuggling by the CIA than about terrorists. in doing a little back digging i found that since the US invasion opium production has been at never before seen levels! one report said a 3200% increase since the US invasion. mildly interesting. interesting tidbit i didnt know so i'll share. in may of 2001 Bush granted the taliban 43 million dollars for its success in stopping opium production. even more interesting. [QUOTE]The Bush administration has decided not to destroy the opium crop in Afghanistan. President Bush, who previously linked the Afghan drug trade directly to terrorism, has now decided not to destroy the Afghan opium crop. "The war in Afghanistan will be decided within the next six weeks based on whether or not the poppy crops go to market," stated a U.S. intelligence official who recently returned from Afghanistan. The source, who requested that he not be identified, noted that the opium poppy fields are blooming and ready for harvest. U.S. forces could destroy the crops using aerial spraying techniques, but no such actions are planned. "If the estimated 3,000 tons of opium reaches market, it will lead to a new upsurge in international terrorism and a great loss in international credibility for the Bush administration and the United States' ability to conduct war in the 21st century.[/QUOTE] http://archive.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2002/3/28/95240.shtml even more interesting is the large quantity of opium druglords now in the US's puppet regime Afghanistan. Sounds to me like things are working out just fine for the CIA.. opps i mean afghani drug lords :) http://www.csmonitor.com/2005/0513/p01s04-wosc.html?s=spworld [/QB][/QUOTE]
