<p>Disinfo abound in this video. First of all, the notion that &#8216;The Taliban&#8217; are the opium growers, makes no sense at all, since the Taliban during their rule of Afghanistan in 1999-2001, declared poppy growing &#8216;un-Islamic&#8217; and proceeded to more or less completely stamp it out. Then &#8216;we&#8217; invaded 1800s style and lo and behold, poppy growing skyrocketed. Britain <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Anglo-Afghan_War">has</a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Anglo-Afghan_War">been</a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_Anglo-Afghan_War">fighting</a> wars to protect and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opium_Wars">expand</a> their opium trade for nearly two centuries now. This ties in to their historical desire to crush <a href="http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/kenanderson/histemp/thegreatgame.html">Russia</a> (and, speaking of Russia, you know the heeb Marx spent most of his life in London &#8211; another Rothschild agent &#8211; the Soviet revolution was overwhelmingly a ziofascist revolution). <a href="http://edition.presstv.ir/detail/121874.html">Today a lot of that opium from Afghanistan is directed at Russia</a>. I do not believe for a second that UK or US troops are destroying opium crops, except as a token gesture or perhaps if they belong to independent growers. (Just like the Drug War back home.) <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChIF6yvTL6k&amp;feature=related">On the contrary, we have a lot of proof that the real policy is to promote opium growth.</a> Something that the Taliban never did, so it&#8217;s no good blaming them for the proliferation of opium.</p>
