GORDON DUFF: ORCHESTRATING A PHONY WAR IN AFGHANISTAN
IS THE ENEMY OUR OWN STUPIDITY?
By Gordon Duff STAFF WRITER, Senior Editor
America’s recent attack, augmented by top line Afghan army troops, against the massive Taliban enclave in the city of Marjah, population 80,000, a city that has been an enemy stronghold for years may not have happened at all. Can anyone prove it? Nobody had ever heard of Marjah before or even knew a city was there. Nobody knew it was a Taliban stronghold either. One thing we can easily figure out from the total lack of reporting, other than our “screw ups,” killing the usual civilians, using our over reliance on technology, is that the sham of the operation was simply to give the mercenary army of the Northern Alliance, an army no American soldier would turn its back on, a casual airing.
A trip to Vegas would have been cheaper and we would have found just as many Taliban. What we did find is drugs, drugs everywhere, the embarrassment of our deceitful policy to build narcotics production from nothing to massive levels. The further risk of peppering the internet with more photos of American, Afghan, British or Canadian troops tiptoeing through the poppies had to be avoided at all cost. Thus a tissue thin cover story about poor farmers and their reliance on opium for a living was spun to the public, a story based on lies.
WHAT ARE WE REALLY INTO?
We have turned Afghanistan from a haven for a few foreign fighters, bin Laden included, given safe haven under strict parole, no training facilities, monitored daily under threat of expulsion, a country with a strict Islamic government actively rejecting opium production, western technology and the human rights of its women, into a sewer of drug dealers, crooked contractors, terrorist training camps and spies. We originally handed the country over to warlord drug barons and criminals and eventually melded Hamid Karzai, a know moderate and very well know weak leader into the dupe of a defacto dictatorship built around the city of Kabul. For years, America ignored an entire nation, an error of massive proportions that has exploded in our faces. Other than Bush era stupidity and hubris, what was our rationale?
OIL, GAS, DRUGS, AND BETRAYAL
Bush settled into the poorly managed war in Afghanistan at the behest of Israel and India. Israel was chasing gas pipeline revenue and India needed a base of operations to train guerrillas to attack Pakistan. In the process, absolutely everyone involved was going to get rich peddling heroin into Russia by mule and running it by the ton into Western Europe and America in through every means possible including, we are told, using rendition flights as drug couriers. Now that these flights have been “privatized” for some reason, it could actually get worse, if that is possible.
Since day one of the American war, the primary goal has been to push opium production to maximum levels, restructure it as the number one agricultural crop of Afghanistan and to build a permanent tribal war to cover open involvement in this massive multi-billion dollar initiative through purposeful mismanagement, misjudgment and sheer idiocy.
NO WAR CAN BE FOUGHT IN AFGHANISTAN AS THINGS NOW ARE
We have recently learned, again, that our military leadership in Iraq had become corrupted in every imaginable way. The current round of investigations will end the careers of hundreds of officers and only proves that the new “privatized model” being used by the Pentagon to artificially suppress the actual number of troops involved in a conflict by supplanting the majority of military functions, including military intelligence, transport and logistics, administration and even some combat operations with private contractors and mercenaries, is a ruse. We don’t fool enemies anymore. It is always assumed the enemy is Congress, the American People and our allies.
Some of the contracting firms, notably KBR, Haliburton and Blackwater, but others also, performed dismally, over billed by billions and led to a culture of corruption that tore at the core of our Army, reducing effectiveness massively instead of supplementing and supporting. This “deconstructionism” cost billions and left us in a shambles, a shambles that has moved onto Afghanistan where things have only gotten worse.
We spend as much time briefing our military on “keeping their mouths shut” about corruption as we do combat.
Iraq had only Shiites and Sunnis. Afghanistan is filled with warlords, Islamic insurgents, Israeli and Indian spies, the scum of the earth packaged as United Nations workers, American mercenaries, India diplomats and tens, perhaps hundreds of thousands of gun toting criminals who will kill their own mothers for 5 dollars. War attracts this kind of crowd but it took America’s decision to build drug trafficking to unprecedented levels to make the environment totally unviable for any military operations. Was it planned? It couldn’t have happened this way otherwise.
Did the US plan it alone? Not hardly. India was involved from day one, whispering in Bush’s ear about how bad things were, tens of thousands of foreign fighters building nuclear weapons in caves. They made it all up, like they made up the stories about how unsafe Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal is. Only an administration with absolutely nobody in charge with any education or experience could fall for any of this. Look at the real history of Rumsfeld and Cheney, the “brain trust” that created this mess. These are little but blustery windbags who couldn’t keep up a conversation at dinner.
India and now Israel have continually pushed to keep Pakistan drowning, facing enemies on both sides, and Karzai was a leader India knew it had in its pocket, has played along. His own family is rumored to run much of the nation’s drug business and Karzai himself went to university in India and has always hated Pakistan, suspecting them of killing his father. India has been given free rein of the country and is arming and training terrorists at war against Pakistan or so we like to tell ourselves. Actually, we don’t know who they are arming or what they are doing.
Weapons are flowing into the region and Americans are being murdered. It would be a shame if the weapons, such things as components needed for building IEDs and suicide vests were to actually come from American allies. We have some experience with this, having armed Saddam ourselves, arming him with bio-weapons, nerve gas and worse, much of it sold through relatives of 2 American presidents. Don’t expect to read this story either. Ever wonder why it was so important to silence Saddam?
The only information we get is from “private intelligence contractors” who are likely involved in the drug trade themselves. Everyone knows this but turns a blind eye, that many people are getting paid out of this.
THE REAL DRUG WAR
What does it take to build a massive drug operation like this with thousands of hectares under production? Now that heroin production has been established inside Afghanistan, massive profits can be realized but the farmers themselves, the ones we are worrying about so much receive almost nothing for their poppies. They are actually paid better for growing wheat, an honest crop that brings high prices and is needed locally.
Where does the money come from? There was never an infrastructure in place that could organize production on a national scale, process heroin, ship it around the world and bank the billions of dollars in a world where strict money laundering procedures are in effect. There is certainly one now. I would start searching every politician on a junket to the region, especially some of the Americans who stop off at Tel Aviv on the way back. I would search them very carefully.
When international controls make it impossible to move hundreds of millions of dollars via the SWIFT system, negotiable instruments in paper form, such as Standby Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees are used to move massive amounts of money. Only a VIP can carry such a thing without risk. The banking world is very aware of these transactions as is international law enforcement. However, it is powerless to act against the rich, powerful and righteous.
PLANNING TO LOSE
The only way money can keep flowing, drug money, massive contractor payoffs, money to rig elections and the Fog of War to make it all possible, the only way chaos can be maintained is by keeping a war going with phony victories every so often and the appearance of building a nation, a nation with no economy, no cohesive institutions and no leadership. Karzai is perfect for this, a classic “asset.”
As there never was a real enemy, no major leader of the Taliban, no “big kahuna” so to speak, especially since the death of bin Laden, not even Mullah Omar, defining an enemy or a victory would be impossible anyway. It gets worse when you have indefensible border on both sides, Pakistan and Iran and are fighting an enemy that can melt into the civilian population for 2 years to reemerge victorious while we are away playing tennis. Yes, Iran is being attacked also. They say Israel is doing it.
We have some experience with such things. We called it Vietnam.
The current plans, military, political and economic are ill advised, impossible to execute and blatantly dishonest in measure and application. They are a sham.
LEAVING A VIABLE NATION
Nobody is going to survive the worldwide flood of narcotics from Afghanistan, not untouched. Every family will suffer at some level, whether through drug crime, corrupted officials or watching their children sink into a life of addiction.
When some of the most powerful nations on earth send their most corrupt elements into a region, allow them to establish a narco-kingdom defended by the most powerful military on earth with the world’s most skilled intelligence agencies either complicit in operations or “stood down” by their “private sector” surrogates, expect the worst. Killing is a kindness compared to narcotics addiction. One addict can murder an entire extended family. Several addicts can turn any community into a sea of misery and despair.
Imagine that much of the destruction being done, not only to Afghanistan and Pakistan, but the world at large is being done in the name of democracy and religion.
GUNS AND DRUGS HAVE TO GO
Farmers and herdsmen don’t need anti-aircraft weapons, RPGs and automatic rifles. An Afghan herdsman can kill a predator at 600 meters with a hundred year old rifle. Anyone that can’t make a living without growing opium poppies, anyone given the opportunity to live otherwise, is an enemy and must be destroyed. As it looks now, the root of the problem and the leadership of the threat to world civilization is drugs, not insurrection. Perhaps we might want to see if we, ourselves, have become the enemy. We train military and police that give weapons to terrorists, in fact, many are terrorists as we have found.
WHY POLICE AFGHANSITAN WHEN WE CAN’T EVEN POLICE OURSELVES
The news loves reporting on “collateral damage.” A building is hit, a family is killed or a patrol attacks a village where insurgents and civilians are intermingled. Afghanistan is only an outpost of crime, the real criminal headquarters exists in a ring of cities, Washington, New Delhi, Tel Aviv, Dubai, Zurich, Brussels, Baghdad and Kabul.
The crimes? Material support of terrorism, drug running, murder, anything you can imagine including overlapping conspiracies involving massive bribery, kidnapping, torture and endless war being fed, not out of confusion or policy errors but out of greed and deceit.
We have Chicago out of the 1920s all over again on a global scale with no Eliot Ness to turn to. No law enforcement body, American or international has made any attempt to approach what is going on, not when the criminal gangs often hide behind badges themselves, those and the cover of national intelligence agencies, private contrating firms that have been placed above all laws and terrorist organizations that may well be more business partners than enemies.

Well, I’m glad we now have a “transparency” president who will “change” how all this phony stuff is done over and over again, aren’t you?
Now that he’s “conquered” health care, I can hardly wait for him to “fix” the economy and “deal with” the illegal aliens.
Another excellent article spelling the truth. The wars undertaken by the US have been a great tragedy to mankind. This is tyranny. Those Christian pastors and leaders: Supporting war to kill Arabs and other nations is not Christian. Be ready to spend your spiritual life in hell. Forget about going to Heaven with Jesus Christ for He will tell you “I dont know you”. If anyone thinks about going to Heaven after committing atrocities on humanity it is a fool and it will never happen.
The new religion has no consequences.
g
Yes, you are right as the Quran also says ” The cruels will be dragged to hell with chains in their necks, by fiercely looking angels and they (the cruels) will be thrown in the bottom of the hell for ever after.”
If they don’t believe in the “Day of Judgement”, to be presided over by God, they don’t have any religion, that’s why they have been killing innocents, using US tax payers and drug money lavishly by waging a phony ‘war-on-terror’ in Afghanistan and Pakistan, on the behest of Israel and India, as analysed by Gordon, hitting the Bull’s eye.
Gordon..!! you are doing a great job, of telling your people the realities and the truth. Please keep it up and take care of yourself.
Great article Gordon.
How long can the charade last?
How many more to be sacrificed on this bloody alter?
God, where are you?

great article, duffster. this will surely get worse before it gets better. all of “our” money is available to them. it isn’t here anymore. don’t take any airplane rides for awhile.
The facts stated in this excellent article expose a trend that has followed the same logic implemented methodically in the USA-Europe-Asia-Africa-South America during the last six-seven decades, developed-engineered by the forces that have taken over the USA and now are working to take over the WORLD with the USA footing the bill and putting the dead, i.e.: 1) Invading weak and strategic countries, if needed be INVENTING-CREATING fictitious enemies within, through propaganda-disinformation engineered by Zion-Talmudic Think Tanks, http://www.rense.com/general36/zinf.htm, (PNAC and the likes) FALSE FLAG OPERATIONS and INDUCED TERRORISM (Infiltration of dissidents in Muslim Countries to turn them into JIHADISTS and EXTREMISTS against the USA, not Israel!!!); 2)totally destructing the social-cultural tissue and structure of the invaded country (playing Sunni against Shiites, women against men in the name of equality…, sub-contracting military and intelligence activities to mercenary companies-Mafia Outfit like the MOSSAD and its Subsidiaries, and using the Israeli as the main counselors-sub-contractors (formulating strategies US Security & Defense suggested by Israel, via proxies in the USA: Madeleine Fulbright, Henry Kissinger, Bush Jr-Dick Cheney-Carl Rove, Paul Wolfowitz, Scooter Libby,Paul Shanon,Richard Perle, Doug Feith, Dov Zaikhem, Michael Chertoff, Ari Fleishner, the AIPAC-ADL, Lieberman, Feinstein, etc., use of legalese to evade direct US State Responsibility — i,e. illegal prisons in foreign countries, use of torture, bribes-corruption, stealing of the funds destined to the “Reconstruction” of Iraq –ask Dov Zakheim where the money has gone to!, etc.); 3)The Drugs have always been part of the foreign policy strategies to destabilize a country since the days the British-USA-French warred on China because it did not want anymore opium within its borders, create the need social caos within the targeted nation and as collateral generate MONEY for the Zion-Talmudist Financial Operators (the proceeds always find their way to some bank controlled by the International Mafia Outfit); 4) By deceit, infiltration and collecting SAYANIM-ISRAEL FIRST FOOT SOLDIERS en Congress-Senate, key US Administration positions, the country has been conquered,http://www.iamthewitness.com/Conquering-the-USA.html, by the Outfit, without Israel waging any war against it, to the point that Bibi Netanyahu has the nerve to come to Washington and tell the US government WHAT TO DO and WHAT NOT, an amazing and unheard of achievement in the history of POLITICAL SCIENCE and how to a handful of shrewd men and women, controlling the media and money, have succeeded to enslave 274 million citizens of the most powerful nation on earth, by letting members of a foreign tribe to have the exclusivity of print all the money they want and lending it to the government, bribing-corrupting its politicians with it and making them work as paid hands against the interests of their own people-country,for the benefit of Israel, an insignificant enclave en the Middle East of merely 6 million citizens… The Jewish population of the USA is only 4% of the total population. Of these 4% only minority but financially-politically powerful is Zion-Talmudist, talk in the name of the silent Authentic Jews and the Israel Criminal State (slaying of part of the USS LIBERTY crew, False Flag Operations within the USA and outside it, that brews terrorists all over the world and makes them antagonistic to the USA, for its support to a Rogue State).

ur an idiot who tals out of his arse

Good to hear from a “punk ass bitch” from Happy Valley, Hong Kong in Communist China.
Next time, work at hiding your idiotic IP address, fool.
g
MS,
Ok, one more. I hope you aren’t this big an idiot….HSBC Hong Kong…you know what I am talking about. They are the source of the BG’s used for the transfers to Tel Aviv/Zurich. Are you a coincidence or someone simply too stupid to keep his mouth shut?
As you appear to be an ignorant Brit, you are a guest in a country I know verywell.
g
What I did see on CNN’s reporting was the faces of reporters embedded with Marines. I did not see much of anything else, a anti mine vehicle of the Brits. Not much said. Maybe this was because it was CNN. But I did take notice this was strange at the time. But then all of America’s wars are strange.
The Afghanistan war is actually for Israel so they can makes billions of dollars from a pipeline.
When is the United States going stop the death and destruction it inflicts upon the world?
“Throughout the world, on any given day, a man, woman or child is likely to be displaced, tortured, killed or ‘disappeared’, at the hands of governments or armed political groups. More often than not, the United States shares the blame. ”

By the way, reading articles about Afghanistan inspires me to think about the ridiculous, supposed reason we invaded the country, to catch or kill the supposed leader of the 911 attacks, the 911 patsy, former CIA asset Osama bin Laden.
Here is what Hamid Gul, the respected, insightful former head of Pakistani intelligence agency the Inter-Services Intelligence agency said about the 911 attacks:
De Borchgrave: So who did Black Sept. 11?
Gul: Mossad and its accomplices. The U.S. spends $40 billion a year on its 11 intelligence agencies. That’s $400 billion in 10 years. Yet the Bush Administration says it was taken by surprise. I don’t believe it. Within 10 minutes of the second twin tower being hit in the World Trade Center CNN said Osama bin Laden had done it. That was a planned piece of disinformation by the real perpetrators. It created an instant mindset and put public opinion into a trance, which prevented even intelligent people from thinking for themselves.
Israel has now handed the Bush family the opportunity it has been waiting for to consolidate America’s imperial grip on the Gulf and acquire control of the Caspian basin by extending its military presence in Central Asia
http://www.radioislam.org/historia/hamidgul.htm
Brian
Spent an evening with Gul trading “insights.” I haven’t had so much fun in years. This is one smart son of a bitch. If only we had someone like him running the CIA.
g
Wow! Talking with Gull that’s fantastic. I have read other articles by him and he is sharp. We have Leon Panetta. I sent this to you once but some of your readers might find this humorous and pathetic about Panetta:
Aggressive attacks against al-Qaeda in Pakistan’s tribal region have driven Osama bin Laden and his top deputies deeper into hiding and disrupted their ability to plan sophisticated operations, CIA Director Leon Panetta said Wednesday.
Most Pakistanis would find his comment hilarious. Maybe next time you visit Gul you can take Leon with you. I think you and Gul can set him straight on the issue. It’s possible Panneta knows it’s silly but said it to help justify the war.
Brian,
We would need a translator for Panetta…Gul and I speak English. I remember kidding him…telling him that moms tell their kids…”if you don’t eat your food, Hamid Gul will get you…”
He nearly laughed himself to death.
He is one tough son of a bitch.

Gordon is reviving the real freedom of speech which used to be the pride of US before 9/11, since people in Us do not know much about afghanistan etc, they are fed funny facts by the administration/vested interests/media.
as things are, US is stuck in a quagmire which may prove to be much worse than vietnam in the long run. hope Obama helps the us out of the disaster which was created by his predecessor/neo-cons with some mysterious agenda.
Hi Gordon,
As usual, very informative.
Let me see if I can sum it all up:
Basically, we have a fake “war on terror”, that we fight with fake “allies”, against a fake “enemy”, the result of a fake “terror attack”…this largely on account of our fake “politicians” and fake “political parties”, bought and paid for by fake “lobbies”, that break our fake “laws” and fake “treaties” (that we never had any intention of adhering to in the first place)…all this preserved and protected by fake “investigations”, fake “investigative agencies” and a fake “judicial system”. Of course, we also have fake “religion” and fake “religious leaders” teaching fake “moral values”, and a fake “education system” teaching fake “history” (among other things) to prop it all up.
And of course, to finance it all, we’ve created fake “money” and a completely fake “economy”, for that matter, that depends on fake jobs, fake statistics, etc. Why, even our “health-care” “system” is fake. And lastly, of course, lording over all of it, is our fake “mass media”, without whose heroic efforts to distort and deceive, we might have awakened earlier, in time to prevent the disaster now upon us.
Does that about sum it up?
Nelson,
Yes, I think you have it.
g
Hmmmmm Nelson_2008. A real brain steaming away! Cool I say! Although you summed this world up, I encourage you to write some more!
Hey, USA is the greatest country in the world! If you do not like it here, and what we do, then move! This said from a 12 year Army officer veteran!
God Bless America!
James,
Good catch. I am hearing from a surprising number of veterans and retirees who have done just that, people from all sides of the political spectrum. This should be addressed.
g
James’ statement has reminded me of one salient feature of our fraudulent society that I inadvertently omitted from my synopsis: the inevitable proliferation of fake “patriots” and fake “patriotism”; i.e., someone willing to go slaughter Arabs/Moslems (or any other “enemy” du juor, including their own neighbor, apparently), who never did anything to us, for a lie and a paycheck.
Thanks for sharing your opinion.
huh. shades of viet nam?
Precise, cogent, well constructed and not using a conspiracy theory to document the monumental lapses in common sense regarding tragic mistakes made in the AfPak AO since the Russians left.
Anyone that cannot see the common threads with US clandestine operations in Indochina ( Golden Triangle Opium/Heroin Production ) from duplicitous government lackeys, war lords, corruption on a “business as usual” scale and the “death by a thousand cuts” policies has not been paying attention or has a serious case of denial issues.
100% Nam vet i always said the rich get richer when theres a war, over 8yr there and people have made lots of money, wast of goverment spending more money being send out too other country, when we could used it here, we cant take care of every country when our own goverment cant take care of there own country,our own goverment thinks of themself they live the good life injoy because it is comeing to the end how long do you realy think we can support 2 wars and people lost there jobs here because commany have move out to other country, to pay shit to there worker, way not take away from the DAV 100% vets because your goverment needs a rise they get fee care at V/A center take everything away from them, see how they would like it,
The next time you find your self in the VA at 1400 waiting for your 1130 appointment , shuffle through the mags on the table untill you locate the April issue 2010 of ” The American Legion Magazine and go to the article by Frank J. Gaffney Jr. titled “Stealth Jihad”. I’m worried!
Jeez, S.D., how do you get in so fast? Have you learned to work the system? If so, share the wealth — you know, your speedy healthcare secrets. BTW, the VA is Obama’s model for his Universal Obamacare. He was on TV bragging about it a couple months back.

Duffy if it were not for privitization we would not be in iraq or paki or afganistan.so they have to use psy ops,distractions (teabaggers,anti goverment,bad goverment retoric) to hide right in front of us what they the oilgarchy are doing.they’ve made deals with all the wrong people who will eventually turn on those who throw our tax dollars away for their gain.a never ending contiuation of conflict brought on by greed and corruption.it may take the military to finally say uncle before they start shooting each other or the mercenarys to finally kill this treasury robbery in progress.you are right there is no cop on the beat at present they’re on the take like most of our leaders in this kabol.i don’t see a good ending in this poorly scripted nightmare.thanks for the gold coins.
Thanks Gordon for you well written one..
The next 16 months is a break or make for US in Afghanistan.
As I am hearing BBC interviews with people on the ground.. Marjah may be under control but all the insurgents or inhabitants had left the area for another location.. Clear, Build and Hold strategy is going to need more and more troops.. And Russians already knew if they to increase the number of troops resentment and more casualties on both sides would be imminent.. They at last packed up and left.
As you perhaps heard in today’s news.. The number of American deaths have doubled in this month.. I am wonder for how long the nation can sustain all the loss and failures of NATO and US in Afghanistan.
I am also wonder if the tombstone for the graveyard of empires is already in the works and being written, except this time it will say: “46 NATO COUNTRIES WERE HERE and are BURRIED” ..
As Afghans know, you can conquer the universe and the other planets but not Afghanistan.. First and foremost the poppet “Karzai” guy is the number one contributor to the war. Get rid of him and bring someone forceful and credible man that Afghans will agree 70% of the problem will be gone.
This is a view of an Afghan.

Thanks again for a great article. I watched a program on Fox channel the other
night that made me puke. They had a room full of young kids who were ready to go
off to Afghanistan to fight a patriotic war. Sure wish you could have been there
in that room with them to give them the facts like you did in your article on
fighting in Vietnam.
God bless and keep safe…

We wudda had one of those talks. Troops who are sent out full of crap come back to put a gun to their heads. Thanks Fox..thanks Army.
Send me the guys who buzzed these kids up and you will see an old Marine kicking some ass.

Excellent article. Used to tell people when we invaded Afghanistan, that the poppies must be mature and ready for harvest. This was exactly what I’d say because I understand body bags from Vietnam, Gen. Kuhn Sa,Alledged ‘American Gangster acting alone’, Iran Contra affair exposed which should have been named the Israel- Iran(Does anyone else see a conflict with this?) Contra Cocaine Affair. Is it John Hull, Eugene Hassenfus,Felix Rodriguez, Jose milian Rodriguez, tow missiles to the ‘hated ‘Ayatollah’. Felix was there, in charge, with the capture of Che’ Guevarra. According to an interview, he spoke to him several hours before his death. In this interview he spoke of a note he received from George Bush, Sr., thanking him for his honesty. From that point I mused, Felix is full of Shit.He was implicated, but vindicated from the Contra Affair. What does this all have todo with anything? History repeating itself , by those that repeat history.Have a nice day.

Good night and good luck.
We’re screwed! all the people who’ve never had the pleasure of looking at the world over a 3 dot sight think that Mr.President has nothing but their safety and well being at heart please take note: how many hours of sleep do you think he loses at night if your kid gets ill, if your gonna get the pink slip, if you don’t have enough cash to buy food after filling up the gas tank for the week going to and from work only, you just found out your phone is getting turned off and your wife just informed you she’s leaving you for some young stud she met at work. There are people here who work hard (if they still have a job) but are still far below the poverty level! When the last time you heard Mr. President discuss Low income or no income people and they’re problems ? Mr. President, what happens when my unemployment benefits run out(extentions) and no one has hired me yet? I’m renting a room with my benefits while I search for work with barely enough left over to eat.
So does this mean another vet has to hit the street with a shopping cart? Pleeese Mr. President, I’m a 55yr old vet who’s worked my whole life and gave my best to uncle sam with no questions asked, why do I have to be treated like this by my own country? why are we not important anymore? Why is every other country so more important than US? Is that piece of paper that says we all should have rights to certain things just that,a piece of paper? So I might as well been fighting for a hostess twinky wraper? I’m greatfull for web sites like this one so at least I know who not to bend over in front of. Fellow Vet’s, we know what’s coming so how do we stop it? I don’t even know what a camel eat’s!!!!!!
Druzynski,
The first step would be to get rid of all T-Buggers, Militia types and republicans. These are the people who are going to cause your children to starve. Step 2 is obvious, full social revolution.

So you are against the Constitution of the United States!

Gordon,
A+ on this article and yes, you won’t see this in any of the controlled mainstream
papers.
Thanks for the real Skinny man. Im retired u.s. Navy, Former Immigration Inspector But moved to the Philippines 1999. Was here active duty during Marcos time. It is worse now than under Marcos. Things are heating up and It may be newsworthy in next 6 weeks.I read and share your story,s on a regular basis. I share your stories with friends in Pakistan who now follow your stories on their own. They seem to find it refreshing that the true story is said by you.It gives them hope that all americans are not like Hank from king of the Hill.

I was in the Marines,83-87 and I too see through our policies of “pipelineistan” and the complete servility to all things demanded by our Israeli masters.
This has nothing to do with terrorism(and neither does DHS and the patriot act either),it has to do with securing energy supplies and their transit routes for the grim future that awaits a dollar that isn’t worth the paper that it’s printed on.
If you folks think that we’re in economic troubles now,you ‘aint seen nuthin yet.
Take a step back to 2002, and before: all the players (Vice Presidents, future Presidents, The Taliban, ENRON, Haliburton Executives [future V.P], The CIA Director [future Secretary of Defense], President Karzi [UNOCAL Lobbyist], and possibly bin Laden Construction), building a UNOCAL pipeline into India for ENRON, while cutting Russia and Iran out of future natural gas revenues, possibly blocking them completely out of what will develop into the second largest energy market in the world. I believe the exact pipeline route still has the most land mines per square mile on Earth.
