Thanks to White House planners, 87% of world opium supply comes from
Afghanistan, up from six or seven percent when equally good planning let a
wounded Osama Bin Laden escape unimpeded from Tora Bora.
Seems to me the White House planners have been highly successful. Seems to
me that the other poppy growers should be screaming favoritism.
The War on Drugs is total bs except for those who profit from it. Keeps
prices nicely high for middlemen and street dealers. Pretty much the same
for the War on Terrorism. Helluva recruiting and fundraising tool. Lots of
taxpayer money supports those two so-called wars, which make lots of rich
people richer. Follow the money.
