CIA Created Afghan Heroin Trade | _

Well I don't really agree with this position nor I think would a Chinese historian who would say that the British sold Opium to the Chinese which resulted in the Opium Wars.. The whole area, at the foot of the Himalayas, is rife with poppy growing and always has been.
Simla was the place where Indians went to when the hot weather forced them out of the plains, it is said. Bollocks! The Simla pink is one of the best poppies in the World Sure they went up there to get away from the heat and to pick the crop!! The British followed suit when they took over India to get the poppy crop and further their imperialistic dream of turning the World map, They knew that China had banned opium and decided to sell it to them and thus take over China. .
The Americans have just followed the cycle, used drugs as a commodity and as a weapon to subdue the people whom they wish to conquer.
