If the United States ends all trade with Afghanistan over heiron ( I don't think U.S has ever stopped the heiron trade or ever could. Remember Heiron is very profitable on the streets of big cities to the mountainous regions of Kabul and even in some major industrial cities and nations that deal drugs. Even some white collar merchant would throw a fit if the heiron trade was stopped completely.) I think another possible industry in Afghanistan would be copper. Afghanistan has copper, but I don't know how much. There is definitely an industry for copper in the world but I am kind of worried that the world will cut them out of the trading system and the people of Afghanistan wouldn't have anything left. It was disgusting that Bush decided to invade Afghanistan because now this country will probably be scarred forever from what we did.

Wow, going after the Taliban is digusting? You must cry every night at the thought of all comvicts in the prison systems.
So...........Bush lied about WMD's in Iraq?? http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/middle_east/july-dec98/clinton_12-16.html
I must cry at the thought of convicts in jail? Excuse me what has this to do with the topic that I wrote about in which it says, 'Possible industries in Afghanistan' I hoped that I would recieve on ideas on new ways for the Afghani people to make money if the heiron sales decrease.

Afghanistan has places you could lay a pipeline getting the oil from the Middle East to the West ... I think some previous Administration or Dubya or someone had the Taliban in to talk about such an idea ... (when the Taliban were the US's friends of course, until they merged from Mujihadeen freedom fighters to Osama-backin' clitoris-removers, of course) - where was I? - yeah, I dunno if Afghanistan has squat in terms of natural resources that large Western corporations would seek to exploit and hence make some warlord rich beyond his dreams, but yeah it'd be nice if they did and some of the money went to rebuilding the joint after 3000 years of war ... wouldn't hold your breath though, that place is worse off than Iraq. And that's saying something.
Just ask Bush Sr, his sons, Bill Clinton, Oliver North, fmr. CIA Director William Casey, John Kerry, fmr Attorney General Meese about drug trafficking in Arkansas. Our CIA has been too busy dealing and running drugs throughout the years, that its really no surprise they wouldn't have focused on real problems like Al Qaeda and Usama bin Lala.
So, it's really no surprise that the heroine thing is no big deal. Maybe they cut a deal. They are all high on something because they couldn't even discern that there were no WMD's.
Put down the crackpipe people. Americans would like to live without this "terror". And it's just not assuring to know that we are being "protected" by drug dealers.
But hey, I believe in a higher power than the CIA.
Elvis lives man don't talk so much crap, at this very moment he is shacked up in a cave with Bin Laden keeping an eye on Sadamm's WMD's until Syria comes to get them I also believe he has French oil contracts that Sadamm asked him to look after.
Though in all seriousness the Warlords ( who according to some on this forum do n ot exsist and are a figment of everyone's imagination) in Afghanistan and the normal people can make a hell of a lot more money in Opium trading than copper mining or anything else for that matter anyway come the election next month or next week ( I forget the date) it becomes Afghanistans problem not ours.
And smokin a lotta Afghani opium - and kickin' at the lid, whatever that is - the toilet seat? Trying to kick it up ...? there's an image I didn't need first thing. Not to worry. The Afghani people are gonna be free after their elections to grow as much heroin for sale on the streets of Brooklyn as their new-won freedom allows. Supply and demand will dictate it. If there was a high demand for copper or wheat, if you could get 1000% markup from turning some copper into a highly addictive drug they'd be into that too. But we Westerners do love to get high. Can we really blame the 3rd world for hocking us what we want?
