The Taliban are sitting on $1 trillion worth of minerals the world desperately needs​

here are also rare earth minerals and, perhaps most importantly, what could be one of the world's biggest deposits of lithium — an essential but scarce component in rechargeable batteries and other technologies vital to tackling the climate crisis
Still, there's interest from countries including China, Pakistan and India, which may try to engage despite the chaos.

So all you Biden battery supporters that are in favor of electric cars?
A lithium-ion battery or Li-ion battery is a type of rechargeable battery. Lithium-ion batteries are commonly used for portable electronics and electric vehicles and are growing in popularity for military and aerospace applications.
Where will we get this lithium now that China will control this source?

That is impeachable offense number two in this Biden tragedy....where is McConnell and McCarthy?....
 
Geesus..Trump wanted to withdraw. So, is your opinion now we should have stayed in Afghanistan for another 20 years?
Trump never wanted to do a total withdraw...no matter how many times you tards say that it does not make it true....and Trump would have never allowed China into Afghanistan...any idiot should know that.....

So, your opinion now is we should have stayed another 20 years in Afghanistan and spent another trillion dollars.
 
Where is the most lithium mined?
With 51,000 tons, Australia was by far the most important supplier of lithium in 2018 – ahead of Chile (16,000 tons), China (8,000 tons) and Argentina (6,200 tons). This is shown by figures from the USGS (United States Geological Survey). The four countries mentioned have long dominated the picture, with Australia only gaining a clear lead over Chile in recent years.

We had 2500 troops and air support in Kabul...and that has been enough to keep the Taliban in check....we still have troops in Japan....and Germany....and SK.....and Somalia...North Africa.....I can go on and on and on...what the people wanted was an end to major hostilities involving American and NATO troops in Afghanistan and we achieved that....now women and girls in Afghanistan that have only known life under Afghan rule without the 12 century Taliban in charge...and Joe just tossed them to the wolves...you can't spin your way out of this one....

So now you want to invade and occupy the country in order to steal their minerals???? You are aware that Donald Trump negotiated this withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan, aren't you? Biden is just doing the work that Trump failed to finish.

China has already cornered the market on production of rare earth minerals, so there is that.

I am not spinning anything. The fact is Trump released 5000 Taliban fighters including one of their main leaders. Why would he release these terrorists if he was not going to withdraw?

However, you are right that it was Biden who has pulled the trigger to withdraw and is the one, rightfully, facing the consequences.

I am not defending Biden's exit strategy which is FUBAR, but just the withdrawal of troops in general.

You say we still have troops in Germany and Japan. Are those troops in Germany and Japan being fired upon on a daily basis? Please enlighten me. Do we still have troops in Vietnam? Last I looked we do not.

The question was whether withdrawal of troops was a good idea. You are saying no, we should have stayed.

The amount of mineral wealth in Afghanistan was known during the initial invasion. How much mineral wealth has been extracted from Afghanistan in the past 20 years for our benefit?

Anyone, Anyone, Bueller...

Hey... so you want a group of people i.e. Taliban and Chinese communists to take over a country and return to the
period where women are 2nd class people.
Where the party is paramount i.e. Chinese Communist Party (which has over the last 80 years authorized the deaths of According to The Nine Commentaries the Party has killed about
80 million Chinese people since it came to power about 80 years ago.
But of course someone like you who believes a woman has a choice over another human's life, i.e. 60 million abortions that people like you approve, you have NO problem.
And of course you being the electric car enthusiast will have no problem paying higher prices because China will control the lithium. Makes perfect sense for you a person who believes the state is supreme and not the individual.

Trump made a deal between the Taliban and the Afghan government happen.....and it kept a relative peace for several years...stop bringing up Trump...it is weak and stupid to do so...even Joe stopped bringing up Trump....This is all on Joe...and for releasing bad guys...are you kidding?...the current "general" of the Taliban army was released from Gitmo by Obama...you moron....remember?....to get the deserter back?....unbelievable

The question is not how many snowflakes know this but rather how many care....

Good thing we are going with iron core batteries.
 
Over the past 20 years how much in mineral wealth did we extract from Afghanistan?

Why is Afghanistan unable to extract its vast mineral wealth?​

Poor security, weak legislation and corruption plague mining in Afghanistan, investors and experts tell Al Jazeera.
Rich in copper, lithium, talc, marble, gold, uranium and others, Afghanistan’s vast mineral wealth is estimated to exceed one trillion dollars. But according to data, every year the government loses around $300m in revenue from mining.

 
The question is not how many snowflakes know this but rather how many care....
Yea... sad but you are right! These same snowflakes that want electric cars don't seem to care what the price is, they just want C02 to diminish... which again another fact is China is the largest emitter of carbon dioxide gas in the world, with 10.06 billion metric tons in 2018.
China will continue to this now in the Middle East.
