Capitalism ...

Yeah, we taught the Taliban a lesson. A lesson in economics:

Afghan Islamic militants get some 40 percent of their revenue from the poppy harvest used in opium production, the head of the NATO forces in Afghanistan said Wednesday.

...

Afghanistan remains the world's top producer of opium, supplying some 8,000 tonnes last year, according to UN figures. The southern province of Kandahar and Helmand are the main growing areas.

...


How long we been there now? Yeah, we're winning.

Off to work ...
