How the US Blew Millions of Dollars Airlifting Cashmere Goats to Afghanistan

The Pentagon airlifted Italian goats to Afghanistan as part of a failed $6 million project aimed at boosting the country's cashmere industry.

The Pentagon's cashmere project entailed importing nine rare, blond male goats from Italy, building a farm, and setting up a laboratory to certify the their wool. It's possible that the program created as many as 350 jobs. But according to Sopko, the Pentagon failed to track its spending, and the project's status is unknown. It remains unclear whether or not the goats were eaten.

Oh Canada

in the the DC area Califlower has become unobtainium. IF you can find a head it's min $5 up to $8. It is because of poor growing conditions AND that the Califlower had become THE THE THE Next NEW NEW Superfood. Here in the USA land of Fads, it has replaced Kale(ugh) as the Hip/MustEat Veggie.

Cutting Edge cheifs publish cool ways to cook the cali...

So featuring it as the Poster Vegie of the Canadian CRISIS is sooooooo bogus.....But like leashed Toadies the PRESStitues everywhere are running with it 'cause it makes for a CUTE CUTE story that allows ignoring the REAL REASON oil is slumping.

I mean U've got at best 5mins for a Feature Story....covering Califlower eats up about 1/2 that.
