The Taliban never really were "put out of business" to begin with; they were only forced underground, figuratively and literally. They are succeeding on two fronts: peddling a lethal product to Western addicts while using the profits to buy the weapons that will be used against Western "invaders."

Until the United Nations makes it THEIR "business" -to find an alternative Cash Crop for the Afgannies to feed their families from- the Taliban will have control over the Country via the Drug Trade. Money makes the World go 'round. And all the military might in the WORLD- is not going to stop the terrorist Taliban in Afganistan from wreaking havoc on the people (and US)- if they can keep growing the "where-with-all" to keep the fight going. :(

Who said the Taliban went out of business?
Yeah, it's really funny when all that crap comes over here and destroys the lives of people in this country.
You're kinda twisted, don't you think?

Seems like the effort to curtail the drug business has failed but I wonder why you would laugh out loud about something that destroys lives and families.
