We are entering our 11th year in a war against a people who are only fighting back because we invaded them.
The enemy in Afghanistan is not the Taliban, a group we organized, armed and trained when we called them the Mujahideen.
What we have built is a hopelessly corrupt bureaucracy that floods the world with narcotics, planted by Afghan farmers, fertilized by the USAID, distributed by the CIA and protected by United States Marines.
Americans are being told we are in a war in Afghanistan, one brought on us by 9/11 but one we are fighting in order to stabilize Afghanistan and aid the region.
In order to silence top critics among many of the factions in Afghanistan, the US has spent over $100 billion on “projects” which have done nothing but pour money into the pockets of leaders in Afghanistan that might actually form a real government, a real army and a real police force.
Now, Imran Khan, a friend and contributor to Veterans Today, a man acceptable to both the army and the people, is likely to be swept into office unless American billions can stop him.
He is demanding an end, by Pakistan, of military cooperation. He would stop supplies from Karachi from crossing Pakistan to supply American occupation forces in Afghanistan.
