Hector Gunn And The Afghan Heroin War

I’ve just killed four nice, well brought up, well-educated, middle-class, English boys right here in the heart of the UK. Why?

Well it began way back. You see early in 2001 the Afghan Taliban, in an attempt to get their population off heroin, began to burn the Afghan poppy crop. The American and International Banks who were currently financing the world wide distribution of this product started to lose their fifteen per cent cut, three hundred million dollars each and every month.
Amazingly, at this precise moment in time the CIA discovered that Osama bin Laden had been running the entire al Qaida organisation all of this time from a cave in this very spot. War was declared on October seventh and by the end of the year the Taliban had been driven out. Osama, unfortunately, was never found.

Not only were the poppy fields immediately replanted but thirty times more were added. Afghanistan is now able to provide the world with more than ninety per cent of its heroin.
