.... the word nonplussed comes to my mind! Isn't the area known for hashish? That could 'splain a lot!

"Burning behind me is eight and a half tonnes of heroin, opium, hashish and other narcotics which have been stolen from their rightful owners and destroyed in an act of vandalism so tremendous it amounts to a crime against humanity.

In this much larger pyre lie the smouldering corpses of those responsible. After witnessing the execution of their spouses and children, their skin was carefully flayed from their bodies, their eyes and genitals were removed and their bones were slowly ground into powder."

(Cut to footage of thousands of terrified people being herded toward a gigantic concrete pit. Bulldozers force them over the edge as the narration continues:)

"Those who enter first die quickly. Eventually their bodies cushion the fall of those behind, who are suffocated and crushed in their turn by the weight of ever more flesh."

(Cut to the pit being capped and sealed, the cries of those still alive inside are abruptly silenced. Zoom out to reveal dozens more exactly alike beside it; further to show the vast complex of huts and barbed wire fences, train lines and guard towers built to accommodate the multitude who pour in every day.)

"Each pit has a capacity of one million. There are sixty here and this is the correction centre of just one minor country. Thousands more are under construction worldwide."

Maybe he got so high he saw a better world. Of course he couldn't stop giggling.

Ahhhh, Morocco-Land of benevolent monarchy and infinite hashish!

"People will come to love their oppression, to adore the technologies that undo their capacities to think." -A.Huxley

He read, from an ex-pat cafe in Morocco, undoing his capacity to think with a ball of hashish the size of of a pocket watch-

I've made bubble hash before but this is something new to me. Looks very interesting. Sounds a bit difficult to make though.

Thanks for posting this. Based on my memory, I see little resemblance to the novel. But there are many things that I've forgotten.

There was this film made in 1994, Drug-Taking and the Arts.

Had some heavy hitters in it. Anais Nin, Allen Ginsberg.

Part of it was based on the novel of a French writer, who wrote of wine and hashish. Baudelaire?

Can't find a copy of it now.

we love you, you crazy (ex)stoner. when I get to UK, I'll drop by with some hashish and take dirty pictures of you when you're out cold

"The pro-Taliban group — known as the Tehrik Nifaz-e-Shariat Mohammedi, or the Movement for the Enforcement of Islamic Law — is led by Sufi Muhammad, who Pakistan freed from custody last year after he renounced violence.

Muhammad is the father-in-law of Maulana Fazlullah, the leader of the Swat Taliban. Muhammad, who has long agitated for Islamic law in the region, said that after the formal announcement he will go to Swat and ask Fazlullah and his men to lay down their arms."

Swat Taliban has said that they would lay down their arms if Islamic law is implemented in their regions. They would respect government control in the region as well. This is politicking to try and defuse the situation instead of continuous warfare. However I don't think its sustainable because it shows appeasement and not all forces would be willing to abide to this. At least not as far as I believe.

----------
I wouldn't necessarily blame this squarely on Bush, the Great Game in Afghanistan has been waged ever since the collapse of the Afghan government and the incursion of Soviet forces. The parties involved ranged from the CIA, the ISI, the Saudi Wahhabists, Iran and individual non allied forces from within Afghanistan and the surrounding Central Asian States.

The CIA pulled out once the Soviet forces collapsed, they had no end game for Afghanistan and thus stopped their activities there. However the CIA had used the ISI's extensive network in Afghanistan to achieve their aims of supporting the Mujaheddin. Once the nation splintered and several forces started fighting for control, the Taliban emerged and started a successful campaign against other forces, they were sponsored by the ISI and Saudi Wahhabists, many fighters came from the border region madrases that advocated religious war to implement extremist Islam in Afghanistan.

The ISI basically wanted to create a Pushtun government in Afghanistan that they would influence. However the Taliban didn't basically roll over and abide for anyone. Instead they started to charge the ISI large fees for transportation to Central Asian States, remember this is a valuable trade route it lies at the center between South East Asia and Central Asian States, war over the years meant the routes were unsafe.

The Taliban always wanted to be considered a legitimate government but were only ever recognized fully by Pakistan, their stringent rule, public executions and support and keeping of Osama Bin Laden was contrary to Western wishes. They went on to also destroy the large drug trade in Afghanistan, opium, heroine and hashish crops were wiped out.

Then 9/11 occurred and we all know what happened then.

However I believe in the ensuing war Taliban forces started to seep back into Pakistan and start to take over large swathes of land knowing that the sophisticated NATO and American forces have no legitimate power to confront them there. Creating a base from which to launch more attacks into Afghanistan and solidifying their own control in the FATA and influencing NWFT forces.

It's a classic case of blow back.

Plus the others they said. Such a dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb PSA. I hope the people that made this are attacked by the (most assuredly) displaced insects that eat cannabis, since from watching this video they will be unstoppable lunatic killing machines till they get their fix* back. DEATH TO THE UP-ROOTERS!

*Warning: "Fixes" caused by delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol may in fact be nearly harmless usually causing short-term memory problems and short-term comprehension and perception changes in humans and provide a delicous meal for insects.

It is pretty cool. As for all the promotes, what can I say - I like your posts!

Wow! Another promote from Jonny! I must owe you like 10 stars by now...

I think that was my very first attempted sift. Always wondered why it never made it, since I think it's quite cool.
