Afghanistan has been the world's leading illicit drug producer since 2001. The US invasion of Afghanistan began in 2001. Afghanistan now has 5M heroin addicts, 1M are women. The Taliban's position is clear: America’s drug operations must end. trtworld.com/asia/the-mother…

The mother to Afghanistan's drug addicts: Laila Haidari

Haidari dedicated her life to fighting drug addiction after she discovered her brother had become a heroin addict and was living with other users under a squalid Kabul bridge.

There is no substitute for the victory. The USA should have won in Afghanistan instead of giving up.
