#1 US supplies arms to the Taliban to jeopardize the security situation and have an excuse to stay in Afghanistan.

Yeah, cause its so nice, and you got all that oil. And the women are such babes.

#2 I wouldn't be surprised if the US is providing the Taliban with some arms. Like "special" bullets, where every 7th bullet has C4 instead of propellant, and fuses. Lots of fuses.

Fuses 'r' US.

#4 Notice the careful wording: "NATO-led forces have been helping the Taliban" & EU officials were ordered out of the country after offering incentives--this could be true, may even include a few select US tranzis with ulterior motives to keep us mired down there, and still not be the official US policy. Follow the money.

#5 Press TV Iran? Here's one for em. Ahmadinejad a CIA/Mossad mole. If they believe this, they'll believe that. Get to work on it, Scoops...
