Me too. US Governments and Governments in general are surely involved in drug trafficking for money and dependent, weak populations. Clinton, Bush and all the rest i.e. Mena. The Taliban will continue to supply the world, no doubt. "In 2019, that number jumped to 1,150 fatal overdoses, according to data from the Philadelphia Medical Examiner’s Office. That’s more than three times the number of people killed by homicide in Philadelphia that year. More than 80 per cent of those overdoses were blamed on opioids, a class of drugs that includes heroin and pharmaceutical painkillers like oxycodone." https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9372555/Philadelphias-Skid-Row-Video-shows-citys-homeless-crisis-dozens-camped-trash-bin-fire.html Edited August 31, 2021 by Golden Retriever 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our honorable lads then providing protection for some of the opium. These are verifiable facts. I'm not defending the Taliban as such except to say - we are supposed to be wise to the lies of our media. They lie about everything don't they? - I certainly know that I've found myself believing some of it from time to time - shudder. I'm also pretty sure that the vast majority of Afghans (Can't remember which are the largest ethnic indigenous group - sorry) are actually behind them.

EnigmaticWorld Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I would say that it's sad to see governments let their people down like this, but this is beyond neglect, it's more like societal destruction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right, production did go down under the Taliban previously and increased when the West invaded in 2001 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My preference is the addition of wine to weed in a haphazard but determined way. That's a nice glossy vid. Always makes me a little suspect. And if there's an increased beyond usual addiction (not math, but maybe meth) problem WHO DO YOU THINK CAUSED IT? Who has been in charge until recently? Who violently forced opium onto the chinese? Da Queen, dat who. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
