7 charged in US in Taliban plot for weapons, drugs

WASHINGTON — Seven people, including two US citizens, were charged in connection with a plot to aid the Afghan Taliban by sending weapons to the insurgents and moving tons of Afghan heroin through West Africa, officials said Monday.

The US Justice Department said the two Americans were charged with conspiracy to sell surface-to-air missiles, automatic rifles and other weapons to the Taliban to help the rebels protect their narcotics operations.

The two Americans, identified as Alwar Pouryan and Oded Orbach, were arrested in Romania last week and are being held for extradition to the United States, a statement said.

But we shouldn't profile because profiling is wrong.  Oh, and the system works. :whatever:
