Has there been any net profit...

[BenInHer]

the Brits/Americans and UN spend billions of pounds and hundreds of lives trying to develop Afghanistan for zero profit. are there any net profits made by British nation for its involvement in a United Nations sanctioned operation.

Where ever they go, i can honestly say no country has improved.... neither the west gain anything nor the countries in turmoil. how can we somalis learn from this to avoid snakes in the near future?.

The west has definitely gained.

Where do you think these countries get all their oil and opium from?

on the contrary, majority of the opium is going to Russia and china, in the long run it cost more to keep it a float then it's return. they're actually losing money in this trade... As far as oil, its been traded at the $ since the 40s.

The cadaans in the US have an opium crisis at the moment that is plaguing rural cities across the country. I'm not sure where it all goes exactly but the US is definitely affected. Iraq and Libya got looted for its Gold and Oil by the west as well. God knows what they plan for Syria. Basically anywhere the west touches turns to ashes and chaos leaving the people of said countries poor and destitute. Truthfully, it's hard not to recognize that we're currently living in the Last Hour.
