I've picked up a lot of anecdotes from various serviceman about the war in Afghanistan and I wonder how much of it is true. > work with the locals after the initial invasion 1) Isn't it an ongoing meme in the US military that ANA troops are useless and that the government is corrupt to an unimaginable level? 2) Didn't we also originally burn their opium fields, only to allow it to become once again one of there chief economic exports since it was so vital to the local economies? 3) Is it true we had a formal policy of allowing elder tribal leaders to systematically rape young boys in order to be more accommodating to their local customs? Including trading viagra for tips on insurgent activity? I realize some of these questions are pretty sensitive and may be uncomfortable to answer. It just seems like it needs to be brought up whenever we talk about the Afghan war (while it's usually swept under the rug...).
