If you think it won't go on because the Taliban says so, then you have some strange loyalties.

Meanwhile, The United States, in our
infinite wisdom, refuse to release Afghanistan's
frozen assets saying 'The Taliban,
are a terrorist organization. When the country starts to suffer mass starvation, who do you think'll buy groceries? Good Ol Uncle Sam?

@suzianne saidLast time the Taliban did that the US invaded and guess what happened to opium production? The USA and NATO are protecting the heroin trade. Isn't it obvious?

I see your pals have reneged on their promise to allow girls an education, but you would have the west supporting these monsters.
The world food programme could feed the afghans without a penny going to the Taliban overlords. We should wait until the Taliban hierarchy are settled into their palaces and then precision bomb the crap out of them .
If you seriously think the Taliban are going to forego the profits from poppy’s then your are more naive and more stupid than I gave you credit for.

Do you think NATO protecting the heroin trade in Kosovo was a mere coincidence?

Hardcore Islamists are fundamentally against drugs. The Taliban are hardcore Islamists. They are banning opium again out of pure ideology.

@metal-brain saidYes they are against stimulants of any kind I know Muslims that will not drink coffee.

The Taliban will not give a god damn about non Muslims shoving poison up their arms whilst making a hefty profit with which they can buy guns to shoot any girls that protest at their lack of education.

Ethnic Albanians were heroin runners. It is a fact. Heroin is big business. Big time money!
