Afghanistan is the world's leading producer of opium. The fact that the opium trade is a funding source for terrorist organizations has led to attempts to curtail the Afghan opium trade, but this has been difficult due to the lack of profitability of growing other crops. About a third of Afghanistan's economy is dependent upon the drug trade. <ref>http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/5308180.stm</ref>

An oil-pipeline from Caspian See to Pakistan through Afghanistan, built by Bechtel, Haliburton and other big [[American (USA)|American]] firms, one former boss of them was Dick Cheney, has to be protected and some people say, the opium-logistics for US-America too. Nobody helps the development of the country, but the business of oil-proliferation for US-interests. Afghanistan politicians are completely corrupt and protected by foreign governments, like elsewhere in the world. String-Puppets of big business worldwide.
