At what point does one not question their government. Baseless? What do you mean by that? Because Im not seeing it on Fox news its just a hunch. Then really everything that goes on arounds in life remains a hunch. I understand your reasoning where paranoia can be damaging or at least irratating. Just accept what is presented as gospel? Half the time the dots just dont connect. Thankful and accepting that our government is doing everything in our best interest. Do you not see the inherent danger in that?

We dont have a hard time dealing with MJ fields. There might be possible difficulty in detecting them; but little difficulty in dealing with them once detected.
Now its reported that opium money is being used by the Taliban the group that initally destroyed the crops.
There is no mystery at all to where these fields are, as they are not hidden. It also seems apparent that the tactic of the insurgents has been to hide and ambush. So either the fields are guarded by the insurgents or they are not. Either way would it a logical guess to assume that destroying the crop would damge their cause one way or the other. I dont see the US leaving them alone out of mere inconvenience.
So in your opinion this reasoning is jumping the gun?
What source are you going to consider credable that previous US administrations have had direct involvement with the distribution of drugs?
Is it something you wont ever believe because you werent their to see it with your own eyes, what is the criteria for you to interpet subjects like this (not Bush sacrificing babies) as more probable that what is conveyed mainstream.
In this case I havent really heard commentary in either direction; more of general overlooking.
