Intelligence Claim. Translation: We tortured some prisoners until they told us this.
In addition to the glaring hypocrisy here (just was with Russiagate!) there's the little thing of lack of credible evidence.
Not Claims from Intelligence whose job elsewhere, at least, is to lie.
The only real factoid is that indeed Afghanistan is awash in dollars, most if not all from corrupt arrangements with US Intelligence Agencies, and the Drug Trade in particular, who would like to keep all these arrangements going, despite the desire of pesky American Citizens who would like to see this war ended for a lot of good reasons.
If the Russians were indeed paying bounties for the murder of US troops, Afhtanis wouldn't be getting much for that, because they haven't gotten many US troops.
In comparison, when the US hires mercenaries, it pays them full time and supplies big equipment! Such as, for jihadis in Syria. And war criminals in Saudi Arabia. And in addiiton to mercenaries it uses drones and endless wars.
The scale of alleged vs real crimes is so vast, the hypocrisy is so glaring, only someone absolutely blinded by American Exceptionalism can't see it.
