98. Plus US/CIA created Taliban/Al Qaeda . .. financed it . . . used it to bait
Russians into Afghanistan -- US was in there 6 months before Russians came in --

evidently, they "hoped to give Russians a Vietnam type experience" -- !!

And we were financing Taliban/Al Qaeda up until just before 9/11 -- and who knows

if we ever stopped?


Different subject . . .

Did you hear or read anything about a large number of Afghanistanis -- presumably homeless -- being

moved off somewhere? And the food supply then being shut down? Starved?

Read something about it at Common Dreams and think it was a BBC story -- ?????
