US war in Afghanistan is not about terrorism, but about control of the drug trade

 Afghanistan, the land the USA sought to control, is the biggest producer of drugs. Ever wonder why the USA wants Afghanistan, when Afghanistan is devoid of oil. Fight terrorism? That reason just makes my toes laugh. The answer undoubtedly lies in the massive drug cultivation source that the USA wanted to control. Suffice to say, even their military leaders are left in the dark over what their purpose was remaining for 20 long years in Afghanistan.

20 years of occupation in Afghanistan did not cut off the drug production channel and gives an idea of what the USA was really trying to do in Afghanistan. Fight terrorism? Of course, branding the Taliban as terrorists gives the USA the justification to remain in Afghanistan for 20 years until they could not win against the Taliban and fled with only their pants on, leaving behind billions of dollars of weapons.

Why is the USA so interested in Myanmar and the countries surrounding the Golden Triangle? To promote democracy? Again, that reason makes my toes laugh as well. It is the drug trade, which some sources said the Golden Triangle is controlled by the biggest drug lord, the CIA. Which is why attempting to get rid of them is an exercise in futility.

Why is the USA so pissed off when Duterte cracked down on the drug lords in the Philippines? Using human rights to demonize Duterte works as we now know. The Drug Lords have more or less won the day and the CIA benefits most of all. Isn't war against drug lords the pre-occupation of the rest of the world. Why is that suddenly a crime against humanity with the killings of the drug lords?

Now Karma is coming back to haunt the USA. But China is always the ready-made bogeyman for all the ills of the USA. Have I said the wrong thing?
