NYNJ thinks that Americans are the only people in the world who has ever fought to get an Empire off their backs

 

And here is the real reason why Gen. Petraeus got canned : [video=youtube;6k0CX73w_Zk]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6k0CX73w_Zk[/video]

had nothing to do with Benghazi, that was a red herring...he let slip why were are never gonna leave Afghanistan...Rare earth minerals..

 

You're an idiot... We were fighting the Taliban. It's not a PC excuse and we weren't there to guard the opium.
And I meant that we were fighting in Afghanistan not against them... The Afghan army fought on our side.

its just coincidence that opium production rose to record highs after we ousted the 'gvt' there?

Also, Empires need rare earth minerals for electronics, just happens to be that there are many many long tonnes in the earth there

what amazing coincidences!

 

You know that's not what I'm talking aboot.

You did the same thing aboot me. I'm on all sorts of social programs and I'm violent, all sorts of things. Being in jail is not being on social welfare. Plus, these costs of running jails/prisons the government tells people is absolute nonsense. It doesn't cost nothing to house prisoners besides paying guards and up-keeping the building. For example, the food costs nothing - it's all water. And I have never shot anybody.

But that's not what I was talking aboot. On the real issues nothing I said was "made up."

And let me make it clear that during my drug years, I NEVER robbed, shoplifted, burglarized or anything like that. And I didn't do fellatio on Broadway either. Don't need you adding that type of stuff to your insults.

My only real "hustle" was that I drove a host of people down to Camden for a nominal fee. That was my racket. But at the end I knew things were going wrong because I was becoming too immersed in a world I did not belong to. Talking to guys on the corner aboot who and who got shot recently, and having everybody in a section of the city know me was going a bit too far. Doing stupid things like beating(tricking) cross town dealers at night with non cash material.........

Oh, America doesn't get any opium/heroin from A-Stan. They supply Europe. We get Mexican(out west -suckers) and South American. Just want to clear that up for the public. Too many reports falsify A-Stan's role in the global heroin market. MIS I don't know where graph came form but you can check DEA reports who actually research this sh!t.

Yes, prior to Colombia's involvement in heroin, a great deal of U.S. dope came from A-Stan(SW Asia) and SE Asia(Burma, Laos, Vietnam, Thailand)

Once the Colombians got in the game(Colombian dope is the best and the soil and climate allows for two crops per year where everywhere else can only do one.) and then later the emergence of Mexican cartels(Mexico grows poppies too) has shifted the tables. In 2007, 58% of the dope was South American; 40 % Mexican and SW & SE Asia combined to corner 2% of the market.

Dudes, in the 1990's DEA street field tests (they buy dope off the street and test it) showed a few corners in Philly had 98% pure dope, like on sale on the corners. That's insane. God, things were so much better in the past.

 

how many of yalls ever knows afgan vets go ask them whats its about you might learn something.

 

Ok just too many questions to ask...firstly since I don't watch the tV i am sometimes behind the times on what passes for propaganda these days. so if The people in Iraq and Afghanistan are NOT fighting for their own freedom and to not have foreign army bases on their soil. then just what are they fighting us for?
I really am curious what an average joe from NY or Nj thinks. Give me the guy on the street justification for war with goat herders and people who live in mud huts

 

Now I get it... We were waiting for someone to kill 3,000 innocent people, hope they would be in Afghanistan and attack. That is a coincidence.

If they were in Africa you'd say we were only there for diamonds. And then you'd put up a graph of diamond sales going through the roof.

 

I figured that's what you meant...but the Northern Alliance was hardly "Afghan's Army" ...they were rebelling from the Taliban govt. too, The same Taliban that the US supported in the late 80s. Man so by your account all we need to do is go back to a country every few years and just keep killing the people we used to support until we get it right! Damn good idea. I'm just glad I'm not of draft age. F&ck that noise.

 

pjb prisons are BIG business, check out CXW,GEO on the stock ticker
and you personally arent violent, sure, but your ideology of taxation is

where the heroin goes is irrelvant, that fact that there is more is what is important

straight from the source:

According to DEA statistics, Afghanistan's production of oven-dried opium increased to 1,278 tons in 2002, more than doubled by 2003, and nearly doubled again during 2004. In late 2004, the U.S. government estimated that 206,000 hectares were under poppy cultivation, 4.5% of the country's total cropland, and produced 4,200 metric tons of opium, 76% of the world's supply, yielding 60% of Afghanistan's gross domestic product.[92] In 2006, the UN Office on Drugs and Crime estimated production to have risen 59% to 407,000 acres (1,650 km2) in cultivation, yielding 6,100 tons of opium, 82% of the world's supply.[93] The value of the resulting heroin was estimated at $3.5 billion, of which Afghan farmers were estimated to have received $700 million in revenue. For farmers, the crop can be up to ten times more profitable than wheat. The price of opium is around $138 per kilo. Opium production has led to rising tensions in Afghan villages. Though direct conflict has yet to occur, the opinions of the new class of young, rich men involved in the opium trade are at odds with those of the traditional village leaders.[83]

are .gov sources acceptable then?

 

does this help explain some things?

 

That would be convenient but 15 of the 19 hijackers were Saudis. See, another reason not to join the military..they are bad with statistics AND geography!

 

saudis trained where?

 

Yemen and other places, not just Afgahani

 

not now, I'm baitin!

I wasn't disputing A-Stan's production only clearing up a misconception that Americans snort or shoot Afghanny dope. The average citizen thinks they supply the world. They don't. Just look at the logistics. With South America and Mexico at our southern doorstep why would people take the extra risk of travel and money to bring it in to America from SW ASIA? And I have DEA reports justifying that, too. Man, please don't make me go and post the friggin link.

We gave the Taliban millions just a year or two before 9-11 because of their poppy eradication efforts. So after we invaded, the poppy business went back to usual.

And the NE is controlled by the Colombians. The dope and coke don't go through Mexico for us. It comes straight from the source, maybe a stop over in The Dominican Republic or Puerto Rico, and into the ports from Boston to Baltimore, particularly NY and Jersey.

 

No argument there, logistics are a b!tch, what about the cadaver connection, back during the viet nam debacle run by Frank Lucas, that was some pure sheet on American streets that came from far...


I heard when the heads hear of an overdose they go looking for that dope

RIP Rusty, they found you in Kensington with just your sneakers and trunks....

 

Bin Laden was in Afghanistan and working being protected by the Taliban. That's why they went there
