The Russia-NATO Council is meeting in Brussels Wednesday to discuss ways of reducing or eliminating drug production in Afghanistan. But as politicians talk, people continue to suffer from prospering drug business.
If they had good jobs and food and schools and healthcare and a future for their children then they wouldn't need to do drugs. The US corporate controlled military wants to kill and weaken the Afghans so they can take their resources and land for their own profit. It's a pattern repeated throughout the world.
This is a direct offshoot of the media frenzied Afghanistan occupation by Dubya Bush. I doubt if the American Government through the CIA is not involved in the poppy growing just like what they have done in South America. Ever wondered why there was so much TV hype about marijuana in the late 70's or early 80's? - TV ads that warn you of "addicting drug that sells for just $5 in the back alleys, that's because CIA itself was involved in such advertisement to finance its programs. Now I don't want to sound that I like the Taliban, they are power-hungry fellows who has done so much atrocities just to remain in power but If I were living in Afghanistan I would prefer to die a quick death at the hands of a firing squad than watch myself slowly wasting my life to some drug. I wholly agree with Khinu in saying that the American occupiers are deliberately protecting the poppy fields. Open your eyes folks! Why is the media not covering the story of poppy growing in Afghanistan? Because someone or something prevents them to...










Thanks to RT for a poignant portrayal of hell in American occupied Afghanistan. American media only briefly cover such a terrible situation, if at all, because it's in America's interest to portray their occupation as a "blessing". America has had 9 years to eradicate the poppy fields of Afghanistan - if they had wanted. They spread agent orange all over South Vietnam to defoliage the jungles, and yet 36 years later they can't do the same to the Afghan poppy fields that are the source of poison killing both the Afghan and Russian people. I believe the American occupiers are deliberately protecting the poppy fields of Afghanistan. The reasons are varied and all are sinister: 1. Deliberately plan to destroy the Russian Federation by spreading poison into the veins of the Russian peoples. 2. Deaden the senses of the occupied Afghans for the same reasons Britain was injecting this poison into the veins of the Chinese - control. 3. Some high level Americans are profiting from the drug trade. I still believe the best course of action for the Russian Federation is to napalm and poison the Afghan poppy fields by themselves and let the Americans howl to the moon about the "human rights" to the dead and maimed poppy growers. I just don't understand what there is to negotiate about with the occupying Americans. RF should simply tell them that if they don't eradicate they poppy fields and cocaine processing facilities, the RF would - end of story.
