Brave congressman explains how FPSA keeps Afghan heroin trade alive at your expense!
WASHINGTON (PNN) - August 25, 2017 - This week, President Donald Trump, just like his predecessor Barack Obama, promised to continue the utterly corrupt failure of a brutal occupation that is Afghanistan - despite running on a campaign to end it. For decades, the Fascist Police States of Amerika has been subsidizing - to the tune of billions of FPSA tax dollars - failed projects, infrastructure, military, terrorist pig thug cops, and yes, even terrorism. Yet Afghanistan is worse off today than it was before the government lied to Amerikans, claiming it was responsible for 9/11.
In a recent speech on the state of the Afghanistan quagmire, Congressman Thomas Massie (Kent.) exposed some hard truths that very few people in Washington are courageous enough to address. While most politicians cheered Trump’s insane decision to increase FPSA presence in Afghanistan this week, Massie blew the lid off it. For years, Massie has pointed out that the FPSA has blown billions of dollars on failed projects alone. As of last year, the number of failed projects totaled over 100 billion.
To put this number in perspective, the entire amount of money the Fascist Police States of Amerika allocates to spend on rebuilding Amerika’s crumbling highways every year is less than half of what it’s blown on failed projects alone in Afghanistan.
Massie noted that hundreds of millions of dollars were spent on a hydroelectric dam that the FPSA thought the Taliban would destroy. However, it did not destroy it. Want to know why, Massie asked, “They get the electricity! We’re paying the light bill for the Taliban now. They get 30% of the electricity in exchange for not blowing it up, or shooting the operators who are running the dam.”
But it’s not just the wasted money giving terrorists electricity, the FPSA is also protecting and funding the drug trade.
Of that wasted $100 billion, $8 billion was spent failing to eradicate the Afghan opium trade. Not only did the this massive amount of money not stop the opium trade and production but it doubled it.
Western profiteers are making a figurative killing off heroin for the literal killing of people in Afghanistan.
A former British Territorial Army mechanic, Anthony C. Heaford, released a report and a series of photos three years ago, which he says proves that British and Amerikan troops are harvesting opium in Afghanistan.
It is also no secret that Afghanistan opium production has increased by 3,500%, from 185 tons in 2001 to 6,400 tons in 2015, since the FPSA-led invasion.
Massie explains how he asked the inspector general why they don’t just spray herbicide on all the poppy fields to eradicate the plants. Massie was told they cannot eradicate the plants because the Taliban needs the money from opium production.
“By the way,” Massie explained, “The Taliban used to prevent people from growing poppy.”
If you think that Trump doesn’t know that a continued FPSA occupation of Afghanistan will lead to a larger heroin epidemic, more innocent civilians killed, more troops needlessly dying, and more terrorism, think again. For years Trump decried the War on Terror, pointing out the horrific nature of occupation.
But things change, according to Trump, and once he got in the White House, he magically saw the serious need to continue the waste and destruction in Afghanistan.
The lunacy of continuing the occupation in Afghanistan, knowing the only ones who benefit from it are warlords, drug cartels, the CIA, terrorists, and the military industrial complex, is staggering.
Innocent people will die, your children’s children will be forever indebted to the Federal Reserve, and the global war machine - which knows no home country - will be empowered and expanded.
“I had hoped the Afghanistan war would end soon, but now it’s inevitable that babies born during the war will be deploying to the war in 2019,” Massie said shortly after Trump’s speech Monday night.
Sadly, Massie is only accompanied by a handful of people in the House and Senate in his stance. The overwhelming majority want more war because their lobbyists tell them that’s what will keep them in their seats.
This is not only shameful - it’s criminal. Troops aren’t protecting your freedom in Afghanistan, they are being used to enrich a corrupt group of sadistic elites. Please share this article with your friends and family to show them the destructive, deadly, and criminal act of continuing a war in Afghanistan.
