Afghanistan, drugs, terrorism
NWOU hates to write about Iraq and Afghanistan. We believe most reporting is slanted. Plenty of websites are devoted to these topics, so we don’t need to cover daily reports. And, we hate these wars. We’ve never been to Iraq or Afghanistan, and we don’t presume to have superior knowledge.
But we suspect the relations among drug gangs, terrorists, the U.S. military, and the local governments are more complex than you can imagine.
Here are three stories that confirm our suspicions. McClatchy appears to have attempted some honest reporting on the drug trade, including the complicity of the Karzai administration. McClatchy has a follow-on story about the flow of heroin into Russia.
Paul Joseph Watson explains how the U.S. government funds and directs al Qaeda terrorist groups. Watson believes U.S. citizens are fooled by propaganda targeting terrorist groups as enemies of the United States. He believes the real motives for these unending wars are U.S. control over the drug trade and oil reserves.
We hate these stories. Draw your own conclusions.
