Actually the herion trade started when soviet and US aid stopped flowing into the country. The funds from the herion trade was a replacement for Aid funds. It was more of a necessity for lack of funds.

The heroin trade still exists very much. Nowadays its distrusted by the Pakhtun Mafia (Afghan Mafia) illegally to California, Virginia and even some parts of mexico. I was watching a clip of the news on youtube where they mistakenly identified the mafia as taliban. but it was around the 1970's when americans started getting intrested in heroin and brought them over from the hindu kush into America later being known as "California Kush".

1.Do you recall Mulla Omar bringing this down to practically zero? UN Secy Gen even lauded his efforts. However, this trade is perhaps the largest money spinner - even more than arms trade. Therefore, these traders in the pipeline - all very powerful groups in USA, and particularly the banks were horrified. Drug money powers major US banks.

2. I am of the opinion, this is one of the reasons why the Americans invaded Afghanistan for no rhyme or reason.
