when so many find themselves well to foreign, we choose to look for common ground in the world the we went to have guns done twice in the last 6 months to record this footage. many people warned us that filming the opium crops being eradicated, just wasn't realistic. and that our chances of finding a village is willing to show us that crops were next to 0. they said we'd never be able to find out who's backing the drug trafficking business in a country that had

a nato military presence for 14 years. that's what they said, but it wasn't easy, but we did manage to achieve our objective, my chair. so i did this to me in 2009, it was our team, but zora documentary, commemorating the 20th anniversary of soviet troops withdrawing from afghanistan this time. but as we flew in local people warned us that a lot has changed in the country,

and not always for the better part oh, the the, the last in a series of operations to eradicate the opium crop enough canister was a failure. the money just got to spend on the presidential campaign. the country's budget ran dry. investigative reporting is a serious challenge. you're expected to oil, the wheels a little by paying back sheesh before you can fill anything. the bottom of the of the

movie, the whole lot about the driver and translator amolla said they were not going to go back to this. is there any time you want to be shown in junior to show you that but let me pull it up. would it be a come on june, but she will see many more later come on at the police, which basically means burned. money has become a local attraction. we're always traffic gems here. and pedestrian stop by just to stand on top of the bridge. and look at the denizens beneath. we were told that anything like this would have been unsinkable when the soviet union was here. or

even under the taliban. ah, we had to pay a private gun to make sure we could fill me safely. the get to my neighbor. john, john, come right on down there. they want us not to touch anything beneath the bridge. under any circumstances. it's very easy to get infected here. most of the drug use as a terminal. yeah. the my local standards. we enjoyed a warm welcome just the day before and i've got a colleague had his lin smashed and he took a few punches the

under the bridge, a heroine fixed cost $6.00. that was how much one local user awful. he called himself saying it all in here. they have to just get all of those happened, occupation, job job. so i had agreed to appear on camera in return for money. he volunteered to show us how he shoots up drugs, but we refuse that and instead offered him an alternative suggestion but we will get it booked. it looked like there are several states sponsored drug rehabilitation hospitals and couple were planning to visit one to find out if they are able to miss a patient from the street. or if it's

a time consuming process that involves tons of paperwork, people to see if it was the up again, the bush with you to the middle of a brooklyn, despite having proper accreditation, we were soon detained by the state security service. we were accused of filming classified subjects and possibly for working for the extremists, specifically the taliban. yet that we thought the reason for the

main camera was confiscated. but luckily they didn't see the 2nd. we're going to look it up and get us in a minimum of them all my stuff in the end, we weren't taken to a police station and we refuse to pay back station. we were forced to delete the material, we filmed on the main camera, and then they let us go. i couldn't get that said, i don't know lucky send me go. i didn't look back either come interview them or not . but they don't go that it's what is the luckily that without only brush with the law as we later discovered, one of the police generals, remember the word should've been very well. that means soviet the police

immediately let us go with them on a raid. the punitive one like what does it look like? someone sent a couple me could you please can you put you put me on hold on. i don't you know, i don't know what to do to get the movie on june. i'm going to call you normal love to talk about it for the last 2 of you or did you want? i don't know. you're more than happy to do it. you got, did you know a lot of them by going well, you know, you're,

you're going to be on the tag or you're going, you're going to place in and you were petition. will you watch the channels that the police are well aware of all the places where locals can buy drugs. most of the time they're sold from inside, expensive houses secured behind high walls. no one can get in without a warrant. but the minute word gets out that a raid has been planned, information seeps through to the drug dealers themselves, making it impossible to catch them read and it

does not know that i want to bring him with him. so i'm, i switched media so you could get another good. it might be that the senate could put a couple of when you, but just gives you know, well, those will be near to the beach that didn't go to the all of the uses arrested during the re with soon released by local standards. they didn't possess a big enough quantity to justify a jail term. the police say there are about 700000 people like them in the city. that's almost 18 sense of couple of population. the the

most of the big fish didn't wait for the police in town, but at the checkpoint on the road into the city, the police call it the gates to couple. they have their own procedures and hardly ever used a special equipment that was purchased recently with us money. they're more accustomed to old school methods looking for stashes in the more unlikely locations . and following their instincts. one of the most surprising weapons against drugs we found was what they call the veracity test. they presume that a real help at heart will give him away. you simply lay your hand on the suspects chest and feel his pulse. we were a little skeptical at 1st enough. now nobody will settle the

moments later, the officers did sign the stash of her. she shook his shoes. we will start when you the head a little over in that same the recipe to as through a shadow of a one man who driven his car to cabal from july about in the east of the country. i don't want to be out of pocket enough. my father tell me like this because this is for something to them without a chance because i'm with you more that should be so my girlfriend was thinking that this is commonly

used trig for trafficking drugs. the game showed that the tank was full, but there was actually no gas at all. in its place, a 21 kilo stash of opium bobby's there is by no means a large quantity by today's standards. the staggering 50 tons of opium and heroine confiscated at this check point alone each year. hefty prices are put on the heads of the most zealous police officers. i found my way to shaft miller. definition to get charged on us on this of others and above the, as you know about the support guys or more of my guys do financial survival. this is a hedge fund. it's a device used by professional value ags to earn money. that's right. these hedge

funds are completely not accountable, and we're just adding more more to them. totally, the stabilize the global economy. you need to protect yourself and get inform. watch because we were oh, is your media a reflection of reality? the in a world transformed what will make you feel safer. tyson lation community, are you going the right way or are you being direct? what is true? what is faith? in the world corrupted, you need to defend the so join us in the depths will remain in the shallows. ah

i the next morning and web back to police. the place where drug users get together. this time were accompanied by the doctors who have agreed to admit site, yet to the hospital. you're not gonna put them up. we still need to see you don't watch it. you would say it was nowhere to be found. his phone number was blocked and the when no police to guard us this time. we were just about ready to leave empty handed when 5 minutes later sired reappeared out of the blue about

the list time. he wasn't happy to see as accompanied by doctors. when he learned the treatment would take almost one and a half months. he tried to back out to find the other one. if you got one more thing, i don't care about the general i will do that move on formula my to net on him. i wasn't able to 10 minutes of convincing. we finally told celia into going

for them getting a job . we'll give you the demo of my phone call. that is over 200 patients from around afghanistan is currently undergoing treatment in this hospital. it's considered to be one of the best in couple a strip search is conducted before people are allowed in. the was a time when dealers disguised his visitors, came to smuggle drugs into the facility. he bought a car that robert took it to the body. elaine nick will be with him.

in 10 minutes later we barely recognised sight he'd been required to part company with his hair. that's compulsory for anyone who's admitted to the hospital. because the 1st 15 days of treatment of the toughest, he'll be in quarantine because this is when patients go through what's called arrow and withdraw him on the focus with him. he caught one at the other division actually not in your function. space for either kayla maddie, maddie demario laxity. works out michelle formulation so that he might have going on. as i mean,

i got about him. so i made one up for the last month or 2 in the water. what is it? i do show him now to save time. sure. everything is in the hands of my children because that's the only thing which is that. and then they come off because what you can move this is move in with an employee at the school. it was peter, would him with putting it does not match it if he can, you didn't do such a way to do that. yeah, i

me i the following morning we had agreed to meet a fellow citizen for several years, russia as being sharing subtle, i think with chemistry about the whereabouts of undercover hello and of arteries within its borders. there was an operation recently to destroy illegal, a heroine lab. they promised that we'd be able to see the police footage 3 of them voted in, but i thought it was 0 way to move in which the childers could give them a report from the federal workers because

there's one in which one is getting really the well for your records, if you wish that you went to the distributor on the but you needed my money order thermo was up on the credit for from a minimum wage from authority. and the question was, i would say this is what you were looking for. money for you want me to confirm a family, go to school. i need to get a logo for me to kind of give you what you still get in here. will be nipple

supplies on the page for me to renew last year and they can fully, i mean, you got it done. i woke up with the district, but it seems an important question remains. why do international forces that have fought taliban radicals? enough chemist on for more than 14 years continually over look their main source of income, namely and drugs. we wanted to arrange a meeting with a former field commander who started to fight the taliban even before the nato military arrived in the country. none of the men of the house, aided by a relative who act, his interpreter, shows us pictures of his former fellow soldiers. each one has died a mysterious death in recent years. as almost all morning long. it'll be late because just what they did

a little bit when you think i told you, because this much you knew something in your voice to stick the would it be lets you see it because it just says in the eighty's field commander had become fought alongside the merger d, him against the soviet forces. years later, he even treats his former enemies with respect. unlike his current ones at the well, we went with one state to do what it and number hi and how did it and all who i'm john got us on on a moment for me. all of you cobra, but you don't about them. how did a, what did you call them? again, i will let me look at your bills on show owners. check on them in the commission by john burn them off, you'll get which is not going to go on

general. how becomes advice? we drove out to a couple where we tried to find people who actually witnessed nato soldiers working with the taliban. i'll be talking to you. what did you a business that usually are you going to start a new business? was it took a breach state cookie today, it's been there when you push revision to the couple you should talk to the controller and there were several dozen families survived. the nato air strikes, viagra were bombing the taliban. that had ordinary working people's homes. even though everything was documented, several years later, these people have still been unable to secure any compensation data. she down, she was already, she was gonna try to get that if you could,

if you know which one was bad, there was ones in american military base where these people used to live. they could see poppy fields flowering in the distance. but even though the crop was there, close to a nato base, no one seemed to be to bob. and i'm just, what i could, that was what you meant was ellen's up. how about him? janet the, the 2nd curly did all of their both either of these are my me either. jennifer, what have you are going to sit on the what the, what are you? does that you know that you deal with john? do you solve the mind me out to jot i'd you thought out to you. the hardest thing for anyone visiting afghanistan to figure out these days is where the $7000000000.00 that the us allocated to combating afghan heroin has gone since 2001

. if what we saw in central cabal today is the pinnacle of the anti drug campaign. and it's very clear why the overall acreage of poppy fields in the country continues to grow each year. just as we were about to finish filling the anti drug wall or phone rang, it was science later, the man we'd help get into a drug rehabilitation program the previous day. yes. waiting for you. nobody here for the book, but i'm not sure when you go to my firm, which kind of this is our 3rd time visiting police, so it's workable. as drug users get together. say it had said he didn't want us to interview him this time he'd run away from rehab. and the only thing he was asking

for now was money. presumably to pay for him to get home. we had to be honest and face face. planned helps i get treatment for his addiction, had simply ended in failure. he returned to where he'd come from and rejoined his old buddies. mm mm mm mm oh, i use

what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy foundation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. developments. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk me only one main thing is important for not as an internationally speaking to that is that nations are allowed to do anything, all the master races, and then you have the mind, nations who are the slave americans, brock obama, and others, have had a concept of american exceptionalism. international law exists as long as it serves the american interest. if it doesn't, it doesn't exist by turning this russian into this dangerous man that wants to take

over the world. that was a cause or strategy. so some of it on your own. i v i v. i not leash too often on and have let lock. nato to it's ours, we move east. the reason us hedge him, some dangerous, is the last, the sovereignty of other countries. the exceptionalism that america uses and its international war planning is one of the greatest threats to the populations of different nations. if nature, what is founded, shareholders in the united states and elsewhere in large companies would lose millions and millions or is business and business is good. and that is the reality of what we're facing, which is fashion rather driven by shaped by those

in the me. there's thing we dare to ask me. ah, in the headlines here on our pants, national smoke couldn't be seen. call this warning off to an american defense system, reportedly intercepted at 5 rock kids targeting the site. it comes just a day off the u. s. carried out and running strikes on a would be suicide format, which allegedly killed 9 people, including children. the one out in.
