The cover up is worse than the crime and yet another impeachable offense.

    For a few years? Great! Prolonged unwinnable wars in Afghanistan have been crippling empires for centuries. So luring a world power in to a fight there was a great move.

    Also, we didn’t just sell the Taliban weapons, we also established permanent bases, trained their soldiers, and then told them to get fucked when they asked us nicely to leave.

    Fun fact, prolonged unwinnable wars in Ethiopia have had the same effect. For many of the same reasons.

    Another fun fact, Fox News correspondent and man guilty of actual treason Oliver North arranged the sale of weapons to Iran to fund similar activities in Nicaragua.

    An additional fun fact, the CIA was also funding the contra-revoltionaries in Latin America with money they made selling cocaine to inner-city drug dealers.
