- weimerica 5y ago> but anyone involved in illicit trade with Pakistan is, as a side effect, funding terrorist groups like Taliban. I'm not particularly educated or opinionated on the topic. With that said, why is it not possible one is simply funding criminals with monetary intent in an operation like this - does the Taliban have a strangehold on criminality throughout Pakistan?
- dotted_vulcan 5y agoIn a similar way, any one engaged in illicit trade with India is funding terrorist groups like the RSS.
- MichaelZuo 5y agoHow does that work in the Indian diaspora abroad, when someone is discovered doing illicit trade?
- malshe 5y agoI have not come across any so far.
- malshe 5y agoThis is some high class trolling on HN. Folks who are reading this comment, RSS is not a terrorist organization.
- ryzvonusef 5y agoit's god damn mangoes, like seriously, the people growing them don't even share anything with the Taliban, not the same language or ethnic group, not the same sect, nothing in common.
