c Bush's concealed agenda is to exploit the oil and gas reserves in the Caspian basin, the greatest source of untapped fossil fuel on earth and enough, according to one estimate, to meet America's voracious energy needs for a generation. Only if the pipeline runs through Afghanistan can the Americans hope to control it. Get a grip. It is the intention of all nations, not just America, to utilize the oil found in the areas of the ME and Asia. It is in the best interest of all nations to utilize the oil wherever it is found. Oil is integral to our way of life here and abroad and you are asking us all to abandon that reality. Don't count on it because it is not going to happen. Every nation on Earth has a stake in whether or not oil is available. You think those vehicles that provide transportation for billions of human beings in SA, Europe, Asia, Australia, run on air? You are hysterical. For a minute there I actually thought you were capable of intelligent conversation. How long you been posting? Thinking people don't take your word for it they expect you to back up your allegations. If you would like to be taken seriously, I would suggest you do just that, if you can. You see, everyone here is very capable of differentiating between facts and innuendo. Back to ignoring your silly little rants chrissy pooh. M

Sounds more like our Domestic Taliban members aren't real keen on being exposed for what they really are. Opportunistic traitors who just happen to have been born in America. Nothing hateful about exposing darkness to the light in my book. Good job Chris

Pretty tricky wording..."The Taliban itself is a creation of the Americans and British", this statement is backup up by saying "In the 1980's, the tribal army that produced them was funded by the CIA and trained by the SAS". In 1980's Pakistan was used as a training ground for guerrillas fighting the Soviets (funding and training coming from the U.S. and Britain). 5 years after the Soviets leave Afghanistan, the Taliban are created (by Pakistan?). Therefore the United States created the Taliban.
