    Nobody pushes drugs.

    Americans gobble up drugs like Hungry Hippos and the cartels are just violent psychopaths that want to be the distributors.

    Not that the 20 year occupation of Afghanistan wasn’t an absolute clusterfuck, but the Taliban were harbouring Al-Qaida leadership. To say otherwise is just denying historical facts.

      Oh, hey, yes, you’re right, there’s that too: the US also invented the concept of the “war on terror”, which has now been adopted by Israel, for example, to justify the genocide of the Palestinians. It’s really handy when you can just “excuse” the cold-blooded murder of thousands upon thousands of civilians with the argument that they are all supposedly terrorists. All you have to do is say, hey, they’re harboring terrorists, so let’s kill them all, including the women and children - the more we kill, the better, because once they grow up, they’ll all be terrorists.

    Afghanistan

    Nothing to do with Al Qaeda

    Maybe /pol/ isn’t the best source for deep thoughts.
