UK failed in Afghan drugs war: reports

October 22, 2007


Britain, in charge of efforts in Afghanistan to stamp out narcotics, has not only failed to reduce drug production but has been unable to stop an increase in production.

Afghanistan produced 93 per cent of the world's opium in 2007. The failure to address the problems had pushed Afghanistan to the brink of a "political and social crisis".

Since you seam to accept “The Sydney Morning Herald” as a relievable source of news.

http://www.smh.com.au/news/world/bombings-by-taliban-soar/2007/10/19/1192301044804.html

Bombings by Taliban soar
Abdul Rahim Wardak said suicide bombings were up 50 per cent from a year ago

Is your source also spreading lies?

Thanks giving me the link and I really liked the first sentence :-

Afghanistan's Defence Minister has asked for more money and equipment to fight rising Taliban violence.

Keep feeding your own puppet govt, otherwise they will betray you in the same way as they betrayed Talibans

Takes a lot of money to fight criminals.

But then I never denied the alleged cost of it.

 

[ahsan28]

Takes a lot of money to fight criminals.

Not a problem, as long as you are earning through drug business under the shelter of so-called war against terror

I think I would earn more money if I sold drugs, but hay, that would be un-Islamic.

 

[ahsan28]

Not for the champions of war against terror and their puppet moderates

When taleban rose to power, 95% of the opium in the world was coming from Afghanistan. After the rise of Taleban, it went down to almost 0%.

after the fall of Talebans in US crusade for oil, the opium is back up to 95% +

Taleban may control that region but only in keeping the invading kuffars out, you can't go legislating a country when your not in control 100% and have to worry about fighting the enemy. This is a war, they have more pressing concerns (fighting the kuffars and repelling them from Muslim land)
then to worry about the opium and drug dealers.

Americans sitting in US shouldn't be discussing such topics when they don't have any reliable information to go on.

it is incredible how many times i can refute the same exact arugment without anyone ever taking it for what it is. the only reason that the opium production went to an all time low in afghanistan towards the end of their reign is because there was one of the most severe droughts this century occuring at the time. During the Talebans reign the amount of opium production fluctuated, more often to a higher point than a lower. I have posted the link for this at least 10 times, if you need the proof just look up any taleban thread, it has more than likely been shown their before.

here is a little something for those interested in the Talibans "opium eradication"...lol... if you look at the numbers you will notice that they steadily rise while the taliban is in control and then there is a sudden drop. Take that year of the drop and type in Afghanistan drought and you will find that the Taliban did not eradicate anything, it was the lack of water that eradicated it.

It is really disturbing to me how just because a group says that they follow a religion, they can get so much backing from the Muslim community. People defend them until the end just because they claim to be Muslim, I think many people are being fooled.

Afghan force is insufficient, US general says


October 28, 2007


NATO is taking a risk by not sending enough troops to Afghanistan and restrictions on deployment of some countries' soldiers hampers operations, NATO's commander in Afghanistan said on Saturday.

ISAF commander General Dan McNeill said NATO countries had not even sent troops already promised. Many of the 37 nations contributing troops impose tight restrictions, known as caveats, barring them from offensive operations or from deployment in the more dangerous south.

German troops in the relatively safe north, for example, are not allowed to patrol at night, officials say.

Diggers pull out of Afghan battle


October 28, 2007


AUSTRALIAN troops, who feared many civilian casualties in an Afghan operation, refused to take part in the Dutch-led assault on advancing Taliban militia.

The battle left dozens of innocent Afghans dead, Fairfax newspapers said.

Almost 70 civilians died when Dutch forces fought a 500-strong Taliban assault in the Chora Valley.

The civilians died in a storm of bombing and artillery fire, human rights investigators report.

Certainly better than the past. We should be hopeful for a promising future

Certainly it has to be better than the past.
My hart breaks for those that had to live under the Taliban.
But why do you think it would be better next time.

Im not sure who will be ruling when invaders withdraw from Afghanistan. Its upto Afghans themselves to decide, being their internal matter.

We can only be optimistic

I assume that as soon as the terrorists are whipped the invaders will leave.

Only time will tell.

From what i know from TV talebans loose about 20 people every day in NATO atatcks.So it doesnt sound like they were winning or something.BTW, considering the extreme poor of Afgani people, the war will be won by the won who feed them.
