Blow Back from U.S. Military Occupation of Afghani Poppy Fields

The U.S. has been occupying the poppy fields in Afghanistan for sixteen years. Winning anything other than more heroin is not on the agenda.

The Taliban destroyed the poppy fields, which was why the U.S. would not tolerate the Taliban.  ISIS is a-o-k with the neocon neoliberal agenda. The poppy fields are a $1 trillion income for the military.  In the past, we called a spade a spade and called them opium wars, until opium became illegal in 1914.

Here are the homicidal maniacs guarding the poppy fields  that would make any mother cry and be completely disgraced:

American terrorism around the globe has united our victims against us. What else would anyone with two brain cells or more left with expect?!

In Flanders Fields

BY JOHN MCCRAE

In Flanders fields the poppies blow

Between the crosses, row on row,

    That mark our place; and in the sky

    The larks, still bravely singing, fly

Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago

We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,

    Loved and were loved, and now we lie,

        In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:

To you from failing hands we throw

    The torch; be yours to hold it high.

    If ye break faith with us who die

We shall not sleep, though poppies grow

        In Flanders fields.

Peace,

Andrea Iravani
