Taliban and the United States!

I want to write something about the execution of a young woman in Afghanistan by the Taliban because of her alleged crime of adultery.  But what can one write, other than to be glad I don't live in Afghanistan (recently declared by the U.S. to be a special ally) or any of the other countries in the world where women are treated as chattel.

Let me remind my readers, though, that the rise of the Taliban in Afghanistan was encouraged and funded by the United States in the 80's and 90's.  We help to create the Taliban monster, and in this respect we also treat women as chattel, political baggage to be used as it suits our purpose.  From Wikipedia below, a brief truncated history of U.S. support of the Taliban:



The United States supported the Taliban through its allies in Pakistan and Saudi Arabia between 1994 and 1996 because Washington viewed the Taliban as anti-Iranian, anti-Shia and pro-Western.[263] Washington furthermore hoped that the Taliban would support development planned by the U.S.-based oil companyUnocal.[264] For example, it made no comment when the Taliban captured Herat in 1995, and expelled thousands of girls from schools;[265] the Taliban began killing unarmed civilians, targeting ethnic groups (primarily Hazaras), and restricting the rights of women.[174] In late 1997, American Secretary of State Madeleine Albright began to distance the U.S. from the Taliban. The next year, the American-based oil company Unocal withdrew from negotiations on pipeline construction from Central Asia.[266]] 
Allegations of connection to CIA There have been many claims that the CIA directly supported the Taliban or al-Qaeda. In the early 1980s, the CIA and the ISI (Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence agency) provided arms and money, and the ISI helped gather radical Muslims from around the world to fight against the Soviet invaders.[276] Osama Bin Laden was one of the key players in organizing training camps for the foreign Muslim volunteers. "By 1987, 65,000 tons of U.S.-made weapons and ammunition a year were entering the war."

  1. America ought to look in it's own back yard to protect it's self! The corruption is within!Iraq was a sham and so was Afganistan!!False flag scenarios!! It amazes me how the Bush Family pulled the wool over so many of your eyes! Don't be sheep!!
    The biggest thing that is shafting America is the gun and the people who make them! Those who haven't should listen to the words of a true great man and ex President Dwight Eisenhower's speech warning you of the Military Industrial Complex!

    Also unclassified documents show evidence of false flag scenarios at play regarding Cuba! However it was thwarted by Kennedy and look what happended to him! it was called Operation Northwoods and I quote from Wikiipedia :
    Operation Northwoods was a series of false-flag proposals that originated in 1962 within the United States government, and which the Kennedy administration rejected. [2] The proposals called for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), or other operatives, to commit acts of terrorism in U.S. cities and elsewhere. These acts of terrorism were to be blamed on Cuba in order to create public support for a war against that nation, which had recently become communist under Fidel Castro.[3] One part of Operation Northwoods was to "develop a Communist Cuban terror campaign in the Miami area, in other Florida cities and even in Washington."

    Operation Northwoods proposals included hijackings and bombings followed by the introduction of phony evidence that would implicate the Cuban government. It stated:


    "The desired resultant from the execution of this plan would be to place the United States in the apparent position of suffering defensible grievances from a rash and irresponsible government of Cuba and to develop an international image of a Cuban threat to peace in the Western Hemisphere."

    Several other proposals were included within Operation Northwoods, including real or simulated actions against various U.S. military and civilian targets. The plan was drafted by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, signed by Chairman Lyman Lemnitzer and sent to the Secretary of Defense. Although part of the U.S. government's Cuban Project anti-communist initiative, Operation Northwoods was never officially accepted; it was authorized by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, but then rejected by President John F. Kennedy!

    So please my American friends don't fall for the spin and always question! Any Detective will telly you the best way to ivestigate a lot of crimes is to follow the money! So use that same principal every time you vote! See who's behind the puppet at the front! See who's backing the campaign financially and what their agenda's are! Money and war are to bed partners!

    There is a lot of smoke and mirrors in US Government and the banks who finance them and it's been like that for years!!
    The internet has allowed people to communicate more widely then ever before! It gives us power to research, voice and compare are concerns! However already the powers that be are trying to squash that freedom under the false pretext of protecting intellectual property!
    The Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA)is not something you want to come into effect! It has dangers that are hidden! The EU has thrown it out and so should you! It is not democratic at all!! Here's some back ground for the unfamiliar:
