I’m curious to know why so many think China is going to send in troops. They’re going in there to get the lithium and other minerals. For them, it’s a business deal. They’ll use slave labor, possibly the Muslim Uyghurs. Pay off the Taliban to keep everyone safe.
And if some Taliban guy gets froggy and schwacks a couple of Uyghurs, does anyone think the Chinese will care.
The Taliban is soon, going to be swimming in cash......
Factbox: What are Afghanistan’s untapped minerals and resources?
As long as that money is flowing to Taliban leadership, everything and everyone will be safe.
They’ll have money from the mining. They’ll have money from all the heroin, meth and weed they’ll export to the US, on Chinese ships via Mexico.
And when they figure out that they can make billions by allowing their fellow savages to leave, request asylum in the US, get asylum and refugee status, pop out some citizens in local hospitals, all of whom will start sending some of their welfare money back home, they’ll have wire transfer locations all over the place. They’ll skim a certain percentage and, once again, the US taxpayer will be propping up their economy, making the Taliban rich, while we go broke.
Awesome!!!!!!!!!! Good times ahead, America
The last thing China wants is more people to control.
They have gone into Africa, paid off the leaders, and exploited the resources. They send in their own people. They use locals for scut work.
They don’t give a hoot about the native people. They don’t care about the environment. And they really don’t care if little girls go to school.
China doesn’t want to occupy anyone. They want to control the world’s economy.
