Afghanistan, Our Other Raging Success

Yes that "war", the one we hardly ever hear about in the despicable MSM. A total of 771 foreign troops have died in the country since the invasion and occupation in late 2001.
Battles could rage this spring when the weather warms.
During this time, just as in Iraq, Afghanistan has turned into a human hell hole of biblical proportion.


In Afghanistan, Women's Lives Are Worse Than Ever
"The statistics in the report from Womankind, Afghan Women and Girls Seven Years On, make shocking reading. Violent attacks against females, usually domestic, are at epidemic proportions with 87 percent of females complaining of such abuse -- half of it sexual. More than 60 percent of marriages are forced.
Despite a new law banning the practice, 57 percent of brides are under the age of 16. The illiteracy rate among women is 88 percent with just 5 percent of girls attending secondary school.
Maternal mortality rates -- one in nine women dies in childbirth -- are the highest in the world alongside Sierra Leone. And 30 years of conflict have left more than one million widows with no enforceable rights, left to beg on the streets alongside an increasing number of orphans. Afghanistan is the only country in the world with a higher suicide rate among women than men."

Another Record Opium Harvest Predicted
Contrary to to the MSM lie that the Taliban are funded from drugs, in 2000 - 2001 they almost completely eradicated opium growing in the country and the practice came roaring back to life only after the Taliban were routed by the US and NATO.
Mission Accomplished for the CIA.

Aid to this desperately poor country is wasted
Most of the billions poured into the Afghan Black Hole never reach the impoverished populace.
"For all the rhetoric about "helping Afghans to rebuild their country", most aid is currently being distributed as largesse in a vain attempt to consolidate military conquests."

Depleted Uranium Dust - Public Health Disaster For The People Of Afghanistan

US invasion of Afghanistan has led to as many as 6.6 million unnecessary deaths

The Taliban have Kabul in their sights

This was supposed to be america's "good war". It was supposed to be the great big opening salvo against terror and to liberate the Afghan people. It was supposed to showcase america's invincible might. This illegal invasion was soon exposed for the massive war crime it really is and other countries besides the US are bailing out of this filthy mess. The Taliban own most of the country now.The puppet Afghan "government is considered a joke by the Afghanis, who look at Karzai as "the mayor of Kabul".

A prediction - just like the Soviet invasion and occupation, the US and NATO will retreat to heavily fortified bases from where they'll increase savage air strikes that turn the entire country against the occupation. Kabul will erupt and NATO faces the real possibility of getting their asses kicked out of Afghanistsn.

But No Matter, says another insane general. More troops for Iraq and Afghanistan, Defense Department says

got 'em by the balls
