Chinese fentanyl must really be messing with the opium market.
But hey, war’s over.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=flA5ndOyZbIDidn’t everyone who was anyone know it was a fool’s errand going in? Apparently, greed is good for defense stocks. But of course we had our fool. Maybe not everyone knew. Lots of guys believed. Pat Tillman believed. Their loved ones drink the bitter dregs once again as their sacrifice is wiped away like a sand mandala.
The military operates as a cult. That’s the best way to explain it to civilians. Totally a cult, nothing you can imagine until you’re in it. Kinda like the Mormons. Kool Aid will get you so far, but then the ugly truth bites you where the sun doesn’t shine.
The world must marvel at the humiliation of the US military, but I see it bracing for the humanitarian crisis. The world’s other powers are already posturing as the cleanup guys, the janitor cleaning up the pile of puke some kid barfed all over the hallway.
Don’t worry, Afghanistan has huge rare earth resources that make the place worth stabilizing. The US just won’t be the ones to do it. That would have been a nice haul, but they couldn’t pull it off. This is definitely not business as usual.
