Low-value crop like wheat
Normal people call it “food”.
Well I don’t make money off of Afghans not starving now do I?
Completely imperialism brained to the point they ignore the value of growing food cause it has a lesser export value. You should be growing poppies to sell to drug dealers and then using that money to buy food that was farmed somewhere else, just growing food and eating it has become alien to these ghouls.
Funny, I can’t find one use of the word ‘sanctions’ in the post.
Conversely the near famine in 2022 was averted by Afghanistan skirting the OFAC via something called the hawala system: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/07393148.2024.2339127
Maybe if the people writing and falling for this article care about the Afghan population they should push for an end to the sanctions.
There really are Demons in this world
Gotham’s economy has plummeted since the Batman banned the Penguin from growing Bliss.
good god, I could not make it beyond one of the first bullet points. basically, one of them implied that the ban on poppies will not improve rural poverty.
because everybody knows how rich rural communities get when the land there is used to grow crops with high value exclusively for export market channels controlled by cartels, gangsters, corrupt institutions, and powerful multinationals.
the PhD that wrote this should get kicked in the mouth every morning for a month.
Illegal drug production is down to be replaced with growing food…
… but at what cost!
There is a reason for the massive increase of opioid use in both Canada and US during
's occupation of Afghanistan after all.“institute of peace” confirmed CIA front
Such a great article to share with libs to help them see what their economic ideology leads to.
Won’t someone please think of drug dealer’s children!
