Alright cutting the meme bullshit out here, its rather easy to acquire weapons in Afghanistan. You have the Khyber Pass and plenty of other small workshops churning out shitty but functional firearms on the cheap. You have the porous border with Pakistan allowing for easy access to weaponry/drugs/anything else for that matter. You have the fact that there's been a state of near-constant warfare for the last few decades meaning that firearms have been flooding into the region by default. You have the corrupt as all fuck ANP and ANA who fleece weapons to the Taliban all the time. You have foreign jihadists from all over the place who occasionally come around bringing more weaponry/gear. This isn't that hard to think through logically if you look at the history of the region. Cheap chicom rigs and AKs aren't exactly rare.

They do, however they tend to stick with combloc weaponry due to readily available ammunition. Its a hell of a lot easier to find 7.62x39 than 5.56x45. Not saying they don't use them at all, but its rarer.

watch / read a document about the Afgan war in 1980s.

tl;dr: USSR tried to occupy, USA decided to support locals with non-slav AKs and finally Stingers. Now they've turned those arsenals against the west.

Opium production could cease overnight and we'd still have a healthy and wealthy world economy. Surgery and chronic illnesses would become much worse though

About other countries supplying it, that is all correct. There are also huge gun bazaars where they basically make their own firearms and ammo. They have guys working around the clock doing nothing but reloading ammo and making cheap pistols. They have stockpiles of Russian surp too.

There was a pic related I saved from an anon a while back that I stupidly deleted. It was about the Iraq/Afghani Biometerics to be used as prelude to being used in the US. talked about controlling a villages/towns water supply and can't draw water unless you submit to a scan, look very similar to pic attached.

Ayy, wasn't that one failed mission where the Taliban used ISIS flags to get the US troops into an engagement against them? Then they forgot to supply water and had to leave their equipment behind while killing nearly all the combatants there?

A lot of it was Chinese originally. Taliban core fighters were trained in china's west with CIA supervision. Of course now they have stopped but that's where they started their stockpile.

>>33361961

I thought it was widely understood that the CIA trained and equipped both the Taliban and Al Qaeda to fight the invading Russians in the 80s.

The CIA have done this many times. It's one of the reasons many countries hate the US; because you'll do extreme damage without regard for other countries, in the hope it will further American interests.

Karmas a bitch though right? Without his CIA training, Usama would have never 9/11'd.
>>
Old Soviet shit that got sold to arms dealers when Russia realized Communism was fucking stupid.
>>
The CIA originally and probably still. The military-industrial complex is very powerful. There's no real villains in the world today that the US wants to fight so we just keep arming and funding these little dictators/terrorists/rebels that pop up all over the third world so we can justify building $30 million aircraft to bomb them with

I'm not saying I'm anti-military-industrial complex because milshit is cool as fuck, but that's basically how it works in the real world.

See Charlie Wilson's War for context.

Problem is largely thought to be the lack of reconstruction that took place after we essentially armed a bunch of warring tribes to the teeth.
>>
>>33363706
>Both the Taliban and Al Qaeda
The Taliban did not come into being until after the Soviets left Afghanistan. The preceding Mujaheddin was a mass conglomeration of an absolute fuckload of various groups fighting the Soviet-backed governments and half the time each other. Al Qaeda began as one of many Arab jihadist groups converging in Afghanistan at the time, and we had little notion of what would happen in later years. Furthermore the Pakistani ISI were the ones on the ground in Afghanistan once the CIA dropped off the money and guns, and they were the ones who essentially set up the network that would become the Taliban. Pakistan initially wanted a buffer zone within Afghanistan that would function as a quasi Paki-puppet state, until things got out of hand. Won't delve into that now since it also means explaining why Pakistan's fucked six ways from Sunday.
>His CIA training
Can I get an exact source that places Osama directly with CIA agents? Part of the reason he was initially pissed with us is because we didn't back his group as much as the others in A-stan.
>>33363990
Why would we still be funding them after all this time? We dropped most arming/funding as soon as the Soviet's left and just walked off. The ISI took off from where the CIA left.
>>
>>33362741
>Bottle of M Pro 7 in the center with the grenades
That's some serious shit..
>>
>>33361921
Most of the gun runners we hit in Afghanistan came through Pakistan or less frequently one of the other kebabistans to the north, couple from Iran I wasn't in that region so I can only take it at face value.
Lot of the newer weapons and ammo also came from China, generally the bulk of it was masses of 2nd hand soviet era guns from anywhere/everywhere. Most of the cash came from Saudi's

That whole Badakhshan- Nuristan region is basically the wild west, if the wild west was 5000m above sea level and continually high on hash.

Don't even bother. /k/ is full of holocaust deniers/wehraboos, slav-suckers who regurgitate USSR propaganda, Chinkaboos, and whatever else you can think of.

>Why would we still be funding them after all this time?
Did you not read my post? There is no point in having a multi-billion dollar arms industry if there is no enemy to fight. You help create and supply an enemy and you once again have another reason to keep the military-industrial complex going.

That's not an argument. Go ahead, find me some original sources of German documentation regarding inmate numbers, death tolls, etc. Go ahead and find me mass graves at Auschwitz or Dachau, I'll wait.

I'm not even saying it didn't happen but if you believe the muh 6 million number (12 million if you count non-Jews) you're a certifiable, naive retard. And if you believe the stupid ass stories like Holocoasters and playing soccer with baby corpses you're a willing retard

And before you try telling me to "hurrrr go look at them for yourself," I have. I've been to Dachau and Auscwhitz. Whenever I asked any kind of questions I was basically told to shut up. When I asked where all the corpses were buried they would tell me vague things like "behind the little white house" or "in the pond" and then couldn't point me to where these locations were.

All I saw when I visited Dachau was an internment camp that looked like it had horrible living conditions, a """gas chamber""" that looked like it was a tool shed that someone put the sign "GAS CHAMBER" on, and a crematorium that looked like it couldn't handle the supposed death toll at Dachau even if it was running 24/7

That's still not an argument. You're proving my point, too. You're a gullible idiot who believes whatever the popular consensus is.

But oh wait, you're probably JIDF anyways. Yeah, the exaggeration of the Holocaust definitely didn't favor the victors in WWII or G*d's Chosen People at all, did it...

You are just cancer, cancer gets cut out and chemoed. Seriously, you are just like any other SJW or worse, you hear your trigger words and automatically begin with your autistic screeching speech that has no place here, but you dont care, then you will plaster your great "wisdom" which is nothing more then disinformation and stuff taken out of context that you copy pastad without any real effort, parts of it will start to be debunked through actually doing something, but you dont care either, because "there is so much other stuff" (tm) and presenting wrong stuff of course is nothing that makes you wonder if you are used as an useful idiot or anything. What can we also expect? Everything said against you must of course have hard sources and everything, while you will just declare what you dont like not real or fake and everyone who talks longer with you and can counter your garbage is a shill. I could go on with this til i hit the limit for a post, simply because you are not special, you dont have special knowledge that makes you superior or more enlighted as all the "dumb sheeple". You are not /k/, you are not part of /k/, you are just another idiot, who think his shilling has a part here. One day you might look back and feel embaressed over what you did.

Actually it is just another trend that is en vouge with the holocaust deniers and revionist. There is always some consensus on that one thing, that totaly changes everything, why you can yourself declare the victim of misunderstanding and which is going to be the next that is on the 'not what we ment' card you are pulling after it has been overused too many times.
Numbers are off? So the classic vague approach? Strawmanning hard? The ones talking all day over muh 6 millions are ironically always the ones who say that it is said everywhere and it has stop to be said. Fruthermore how much off would the number be, is it even in an revelant percentage? Where had anyone else brought up the number that is off beside the ones telling that we all got it wrong?
