To arm the Afghan forces that the US military hopes will lead the fight against Al Qaeda and the Taliban,
the American military gave $300 million to a company led by a 22-year-old man whose vice president was a licensed
masseur.
Apparently, AEY Inc. was providing 40-year-old ammunition to the Afghanis, much of which comes from aging stockpiles of
the old former Soviet Union that the State Department
and NATO have determined to be unreliable and spent millions of dollars to destroy.
This week, after repeated inquiries about AEY’s performance, the Army suspended the company from any future federal
contracting.
