The US military is heavily relying on the poppy cultivation and natural resources of Afghanistan to finance their ongoing wars in the country and around the world
I FOUND THIS ON FACEBOOK, I BELIEVE IT IS VERY INTERESTING AND I SHARE WITH THE VISITORS OF IVOTONIUT.BLOGSPOT.COM:
Recently President Donald Trump declared that Washington will not negotiate with Taliban. His announcement came after Taliban announced that they will only negotiate with the US in Afghanistan – due to Afghan government's no decision making authority.
This development comes at a time where BBC declared that 70% of Afghan districts are either under Taliban control or their threat. Their findings come as a result of their survey across the country. In addition, SIGAR – the US Senior Inspector for the Afghan Reconstruction – reported this week that they are directed by Pentagon to classify the information about the percentage of Government controlled territory in Afghanistan. Given this situation it is quite clear that the actual decision making in the Afghan war has no intention of peace in the country and is using its geo-political location to challenge any Russian and Chinese influence in the region. It is also aimed to destabilize their neighbors as well. In addition, the US military is heavily relying on the poppy cultivation and natural resources of Afghanistan to finance their ongoing wars in the country and around the world.
Therefore, it is no surprise that the US at one hand is increasing its bombing campaign in the country – which forces people to join the war – and in another is not ready to come any actual negotiating table, fearing that it can harm their interests. This war is – as it is appeared to be – planned for the coming 50 year at the least and it is not in their interest to bring any reduction in their savageness even for a bit.
So in a nutshell, the war is a business and the one in Afghanistan is the one they make a lot of profits out of it. Out of three big businesses of the world, the US is conducting two of them in Afghanistan – War and Drugs.
