WASHINGTON – It is very strange to know that The Taliban are in much stronger financial shape than al-Qaida and they depend on mostly criminal activities also to pay for attacks on united state. and coalition forces in Afghanistan.They take money by force from poppy farmers and heroin traffickers involved in Afghanistan's booming drug trade. The Taliban also demand protection payments from legitimate Afghan businesses,.Al-Qaida is a cash-strapped organization that is losing its clout. In the first half of 2009, he said, al-Qaida's leaders made four public appeals for money to bolster recruitment and training.Al-Qaida is in its weakest financial condition in several years, and that, as a result, its influence is now less if we compare with TalibanBut still donar exists who want to help Al-Qaida,to fight for their own missionsFinancial situatoin of Al-Qaida can be changed. On the other side if we see Taliban, Drugs are a major money maker for the Taliban group. This report ,published by a senior Treasury Department official said Monday.
