Reply #13: afghanistan?

[lukery]

well - as you know, i think the definition of AlQaeda is kinda misleading - but it appears that 'AlQ' operate beyond afghanistan. Sibel says that they are also a major player in Turkey (in fact, if you look closely at what sibel says, it's difficult to separate AlQaeda from Turkey's Deep State (and also from the ATC))

In any case, here's Dan Ellsberg:

The major effect of that is that terrorist gangs are taking a cut of this, including Al Qaeda, which essentially taxes this traffic as it goes through the various lands where each 'band' pays a percentage as they hand it off. In other words, the US is in effect, endorsing - well, 'endorsing' is too strong a word - 'permitting', definitely permitting, or 'not acting against,' a heroin trade - which not only corrupts our cities and our city politics, AND our congress, as Sibel makes very specific - but is financing the terrorist organization that constitutes a genuine threat to us.

If I'm not mistaken, the Taliban kinda stops at the Afghan borders, right?
