The CIA, Afghanistan, and Viagra

The CIA is winning cooperation from older warlords with multiple wives by handing out free Viagra... In the case of the 60-year-old warlord - the head of a clan in southern Afghanistan who had not co-operated - operatives saw he had four younger wives. The pills were explained and offered. Four days later the agents returned. "He came up to us beaming," the Post quoted an agent as saying. "He said, 'You are a great man.' "And after that we could do whatever we wanted in his area."
