Those same mujahideen once funded by the west against the Soviets are now the enemy; the minister recently installed in Kabul quick to denounce long standing allies as Taleban. I believe he owns the most profitable poppy fields in Afghanistan. But that's alright; he's on 'our' side.<br /><br />Happy fucking Fourth of July, eh ?ibhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08788986697776895039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6291232662827929830.post-89530373101355489692009-07-07T17:35:36.226-07:002009-07-07T17:35:36.226-07:00Was a time the Canadian fuckers doing the war thin...Was a time the Canadian fuckers doing the war thing in Afghanistan were all anonymous to me.
