Afghanistan breaks poppy harvest record...again.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070717/...as/afghanistan

Whatever happened to "Operation Achilles" which was supposed to be a "biggest ever major offensive" against the Taliban???

http://www.spiegel.de/international/...470083,00.html

Seems like the NATO presence is doing just what it's stated purpose was...control

Quote:
The Afghan government has lost control over parts of northern Helmand, including Musa Qala district, where Taliban militants took over on February 1. Helmand is the world's biggest producer of opium, and a new United Nations drug assessment indicates that this year's poppy harvest may be even higher than last year's record output.

Go back and ponder just what the term "controlled substances" really means. Whoever ''controls" them... controls the price, controls who sells them, controls trafficking, controls who gets caught selling them, controls penalties & prison terms(ie. the disparity in sentencing for crack vs. cocaine), controls drug "laws"...etc.,
Is it really about fighting the Taliban or making sure the drugs flow uninterrupted???

Control (noun or verb) is used in a variety of contexts to express "mastery" or "proficiency": e.g. "Bush is expected to have full control of your mind using the right wing propaganda machine".
