Makes you wonder what the future holds.

I'd be interested to know more about why come they just now suddenly noticed all these minerals.

Sounds like foundation-building for something coming up soon, or maybe just another excuse (or reason) for doing or not doing something.

 

[Lammie]

Yeah, we need to be able to justify.

Nah....this little president we have now is going to cut and run soon. Timing has to be perfect for "political reasons".

Perhaps the previous administration knew all along. We the people are likely the last to know.

Could be...if we knew everything it would probably scare the hound out of us.

Maybe so. But now everybody knows.

Nothing new about this discovery,:

One retired senior U.S official is calling the government's mineral announcement "pretty silly," Politico is reporting. "When I was living in Kabul in the early 1970s the [U.S. government], the Russians, the World Bank, the U.N. and others were all highly focused on the wide range of Afghan mineral deposits. Cheap ways of moving the ore to ocean ports has always been the limiting factor."

I hope we leave that hellhole soon. Those minerals will never leave those mountains.
What a sad, miserable place that does not want change.
