Millionaire Contractors: Who Profited from the War in Afghanistan.
The exorbitant cost of the war in Afghanistan is explored, with over 2.2 trillion dollars being spent by the United States alone and over 2 trillion going to private contractors. The corruption and misuse of funds are highlighted as the number of Afghans living in poverty has doubled since 2001, and many officials have been caught pocketing aid and money. The possibility of private military contractors replacing troops is discussed, and the role of mercenaries in the war effort is examined. The article also touches on the issue of poppy palaces, which refers to Kabul houses owned by Afghan officials or those with connections to officials that they should not legally be able to afford.
The video reveals drug money-funded luxury real estate in Dubai, purchased by Afghan politicians and businessmen. Despite being illegal, drug trafficking is openly acknowledged and reportedly involves high-ranking officials. Additionally, the poor state of the economy, with a decrease in tax and customs earnings, is threatening the nation. Half of Afghanistan's national income is derived from the illegal opium trade, with many economic transactions also being carried out in cash due to illegality. The American troops' focus is to defeat terrorists and not interfere with the drug trade as it merely moves from farmer to farmer if pulled out.
