interestingly the bloke that grows poppys says there is no taliban and the bloke that doesn`t grow poppys always gets hassled by the taliban, but before the american invasion the taliban had destroyed 90% of the poppy cultivation

@badattitude77769 yeah I got the gist of Skull an Bones, Yale, Russell and Co' who sure enough he made his money on Opium and Slaves. I'm rather into symbols and the histroy of Fremasonry / Rosicross and the links between Aristocracy Mafia and Masonry. You should watch one or two of my videos. Like the guy says the Taliban don't buy the Opium. No one will say that Taliban buy the Poppies. The Opium goes to fund balck op's. Just as the cocaine smuggled by Ollie North the CIA did some years back

@wot4 Let us not forget skull and bones at yale university, the american arm of the illuminati, founded by the russell familia crime syndicate, moving opium on sailing ships to china in the 1800's. These murderous thugs, raised in mansions, second and third generation mommy boys, servants to wipe their ass, never paid any dues, bush was a cheerleader at andover, women are sluts to skull and bones, guaranteed wealth and power, satanists to the max, search: boodle boys. Watch their gay antics: Boh

The journalist seems to be so "mainstream" in his views that he wouldn't reconise the truth if it came up and kicked him in the town halls. Taleban eradicated the production of Opium in 2001, this is the reason for the Nato invasion

The very next year under Nato production was back to "normal" and the wheeels of the worlds black markets were being oiled by the trade in Heroin.

HSBC (Hong Shang Bank), Britains biggest high Street bank, was founded on the profits of the second Opium War of 1860.

He told them that if the video was released he might get killed, and they release it anyways.

There H users. Those types of users only care about the drugs they can use. it is estimated that fifty percent of Afghanistan is addicted to H. The Pentagon probably has statistics on soldier addicts but good luck getting the figures. If you figure that at least 6 major Veteran Administrations that have drug rehab programs have at least 6 Afghanistan active duty military vets enrolled recovering from drug abuse that is 36. Forty thousand or so troops deployed makes 10% overall are addicted.
