    Yes;
    the combination of:
    “30 trillion dollars”
    of lucky mineral reserve; such as,”lithium”
    and
    now;
    “so unbloevably exactly %87 reported increase”
    in opium production, (which already had been estimated, last yea, by the same unqualified statisticians, to be equivalent to more than half of the global total production- the above arrogant and erroneous estimatetion on opium production will certainly gain Afghanistan the notorious title of stealing more than %75 of the global share, on illegal black market.

    Then,
    (with that much of marketable:
    rich deposited buried undergrounds
    and
    so much surplus illegal yields of opiums that are reaped on agricultural fields),
    .
    why Afghanistan is still considered,
    (by much more reliable sources),
    to be one of the poorest in the world.

    Could you, at least, show a little bit of respect to your readers
    and
    some traces of integrity in correcting the distorted presentation of such kinds of statistical flaws-
    they are way out of line,
    boy !

    It translate to insulting your
    readers’ intelligence.

    The invaders will make sure
    Afghanistan
    remains locked at the bottom of all scales that humans strive to excel.
    .
    and
    *the won’t leave you alone

    Crazy Englishman is responsible for branding Afghanistan with opium production; so, the rats be able to control farmers and farming production of Helmand Province.
