I have yet to see where we draw the line in the sand where good old American Medical Manufacturers need and buy raw opium to make opiate derivitive products like codein,morphine etc and where to STOP the Taliban.
The U.S.Governmnet IS protecting some of those fields for our big business interests. Where do we draw the line? And how many lives do we give for this mistake? I'm sorry.. I support out troops..but, I am extremely skeptical the outcome of this war will gain us anything in this region.
Russia is laffing their butts off that we committed to this.
They tryed and failed for 12years. AND at the time...American weapons were used AGAINST the Russians while we supplied the "freedom fighters" their Ammo. I am so surprised there is not more outrage over this atrocity.
Why are'nt there more protests against this war?
