Take a read of this shit:

"The history of the drug trade in Central Asia
is intimately related to the
CIA's covert operations. Prior to the Soviet-Afghan
war, opium production in
Afghanistan and Pakistan was directed to
small regional markets. There was
no local production of heroin. 11

In this
regard, Alfred McCoy's study
confirms that within two years of the onslaught
of the CIA operation in
Afghanistan, "the Pakistan-Afghanistan borderlands
became the world's top
heroin producer, supplying 60 percent of
U.S. demand.

In Pakistan, the
heroin-addict population went from near zero
in 1979... to 1.2 million by
1985 -- a much steeper rise than in any other
nation":12
CIA assets again controlled this heroin trade.
As the Mujahideen guerrillas
seized territory inside Afghanistan, they
ordered peasants to plant opium as
a revolutionary tax. Across the border in
Pakistan, Afghan leaders and local
syndicates under the protection of Pakistan
Intelligence operated hundreds
of heroin laboratories. During this decade
of wide-open drug-dealing, the
U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency in Islamabad
failed to instigate major seizures
or arrests ... U.S. officials had refused
to investigate charges of heroin
dealing by its Afghan allies `because U.S.
narcotics policy in Afghanistan
has been subordinated to the war against
Soviet influence there.' In 1995,
the former CIA director of the Afghan operation,
Charles Cogan, admitted the
CIA had indeed sacrificed the drug war to
fight the Cold War.

Yadda yadda... cool site...

Your chances of dying in a New York taxi are probably far greater than your chances of getting killed by terrorists.

How many people died in auto accidents in NY last year compared to how many died because of terrorism?
