afghanistan opium production

Re: afghanistan opium production

Are you kidding? Every human rights organization can site mass examples of widespread abuses by the Taliban. It's human rights record was atrocious and dozens of UN reports confirm that. Are you really denying this?

Re: afghanistan opium production

^^ You were asked about poppy..

Re: afghanistan opium production

^ What about the poppy? The Taliban told people to stop growing it (so they could increase the cost of it and sell their supply of it for a greater profit, which was highly successful) and said those who did not stop would be severly punished and when you are told you are going to be punished by a gang of thugs who chopped off a woman's finger as punishment for wearing nail polish you tend to listen.

Re: afghanistan opium production

^ You think the current warlord formed govt is any better?

Just remember * that these same warlords shaved off women's heads after raping them..*

Re: afghanistan opium production

^ No I don't. Befriending brutal warlords to fight terrorist/Taliban has short term benefits but at the end of the day they need to be taken out of power as well.

Re: afghanistan opium production

So what about the news that the Taliban had brought the opium industry to zero?

Re: afghanistan opium production

and now that it serves their interests they are using opium money for 'jihad' :)

PS: in case u missed the point of my post it was pointing at the 'allies' that NATO has and NATO's failure to control drug prouction by their allies which is funing their foes ... crazy innit :)

Re: afghanistan opium production

Then US / NATO [uncle's hos] will be out of power as well, at least with the current US levels. Though, I don't know if uncle can completely tame them considering russia couldn't tame them and that is a country that was less worried about casualties....

Re: afghanistan opium production

Can you show me any report on which they say the "TALIBAN USED BRUTAL MEANS" to destroy the poppy cultivation.?

Remember while searching do remember that we are talking about "USE OF BRUTAL MEANS BY TALIBAN TO STOP THE POPPY PRODUCTION AND ONLY POPPY PRODUCTION AND NOTHING ELSE"..

waiting for ur response.

Re: afghanistan opium production

UTD i m still waiting to see your references... i will like to get corrected..

But if you donot have any then i do expect that you will be a man enough to accept your mistake and will stop spreading wrong information..

I do believe that there were quite a few mistakes made by Taliban but that doesn't mean we put blames for undone wrongdoings on their shoulders. After all there should be a clear distinction between civilization and barbarism. My actions shouldn't cross the lines of the norms of the civilized world, no matter how much i hate any group.

Re: afghanistan opium production

the two eveils are big enough and have to be attacked fully and simultaneously.

if 93% of gloval narcs come from a US controlled country (ya ya, nato gato pato mato bs)if u.s is sincere about war on drugs, this is a low hanging fruit to kill that supply once and for all. what will it take to create an alternate source of income for these people? may be a 10th of what is being spent in the US for catching drug pushers, maintaining them in jail and losing productivity of millions of kids

Re: afghanistan opium production

as far as i know black money makerz never wanted to control drug production. :bummer:
