Yeah, the Marxist professors have done a fine job of training our future leaders of how evil our society is. They and their ideological cousins of the L.P. have no apparent qualms about decrying our "imperialism." I'll mention that to our taskmasters in Tokyo who are overseeing the slave plantations on Mt. Fuji, or the imperial troops who are guarding the slave labor camps in Berlin. Sheesh.
Bush's Faustian Deal With the Taliban

Enslave your girls and women, harbor anti-U.S. terrorists, destroy every vestige of civilization in your homeland, and the Bush administration will embrace you. All that matters is that you line up as an ally in the drug war, the only international cause that this nation still takes seriously.
That's the message sent with the recent gift of $43 million to the Taliban rulers of Afghanistan, the most virulent anti-American violators of human rights in the world today. The gift, announced last Thursday by Secretary of State Colin Powell, in addition to other recent aid, makes the U.S. the main sponsor of the Taliban and rewards that "rogue regime" for declaring that opium growing is against the will of God. So, too, by the Taliban's estimation, are most human activities, but it's the ban on drugs that catches this administration's attention.
Wonder how much pilot training and supplies $43,000,000 bought?
But please do carry on with your policies of interventionism...
