Talibans probably could benefit of creating a minister of science and environmental issues and provide it with some resources to address this type of problems; instead to rephrase the old "donate, is for the boys" into "send money, this time is for nature" (tip, it wasn't, it isn't).

Who lives in this bases now? If they are empty and the area is too contaminated, to start this people should be moved. Show some action.

Second question. If the claim that one of each three Afghans have problems with drugs is true, there is a fair statistical possibility that at least one of this men have skin blisters, kidney problems, chronically infected wounds that take ages to heal, lung problems, and poor health... just because a past history of drug abuse.

This particular set of symptoms can be found in people poisoned, but also consistently in any committed heroin addict all around the planet. Every single one of them.

This fact should be taken seriously to anybody trying to investigate this problem. There is a deafening background noise in the poor health variable just because the average level of health in the whole population was abysmal before, and this noise must be sorted out.
