The troop withdrawal created a ton of surplus armament. Through the so-called “1033 program,” police departments can acquire excess military gear from the Pentagon for free.

I got some stuff that was meant to go to Afghanistan through Pakistan. Some containers get stolen after they port in Karachi and the stuff gets sold around. NATO containers fkr the us military there.
Still have some of that stuff. Surprisingly unseedy place.
Only tangentially related but had to mention it.
Hey, remember when Bush was 100% certain that Iraq had “weapons of mass destruction”, and then USA swept in, and reported back “Well, we killed Sadam, took over the region, opened a power vacume that allowed the formation of ISIS, and the rise of power of the taliban, and all in the name of finding nukes? Yeah…they didn’t have them. Whoopsie doodles!”
Remember that?
Yeah. Found where they went. This guy has them.

Lmaooo.
What’s funny is that when Iran moved their nuclear stuff before the us bombed them, there were theories that it was moved to Pakistan too. (Unlikely IMO)
Pakistan has possibly also helped Iran in their nuclear project
i wonder if russia did, and the ccp too, china helped develop pakistans nukes.
