2018 data shows that every day, 128 people in the United States die after overdosing on opioids.
The Afghan people produce over 90% of illicit heroin globally!
The Afghan people used us for 20 years and are cowards who will not fight for themselves. The army stood down in 11 days.
I say break out the herbicides and start flying missions.
