Well it seems bags of cash continue to flow
A new watchdog report reveals that the country of Afghanistan has received a staggering $11 billion in foreign aid from the United States since the country’s collapse in August of 2021.
As Breitbart reports, the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR), John Sopko, issued his report on Monday. Sopko says that the U.S. and its allies have been sending “cash shipments” of about $80 million to Afghanistan “every 10-14 days” since the Taliban took over the country shortly before the withdrawal of all American forces.

Holy shit! Several of them got serious air time off that bitch! Amazing if that hasn't caused a major wreck yet.. especially motorcycles. The dude on the bike handled it quite well..
Well it seems that Chinese are making inroads
The United States and China have adopted very different diplomatic approaches toward Afghanistan. Whereas Beijing has chosen the investment/security cooperation route, the U.S. remains the leading humanitarian donor to Afghanistan, providing more than $2 billion in humanitarian assistance since the Taliban takeover.
- The spokesperson for the Taliban's Ministry of Mines and Petroleum reported that the group had successfully sold $80 million in crude oil.
- China's CAPEIC’s investment of $49 million in Afghanistan has helped boost the country's daily crude oil output to more than 8,000 bpd.
- Spanning Afghanistan and Tajikistan, the Amu Darya basin is estimated to contain 962 million barrels of crude oil and 52,025 billion cubic feet of natural gas.

Knowing the investment made by the U.S. and all the media propaganda shown to us on the idiot-box raising Afghans into the modern world how did this happen? Reading the information states they had been importing oil, millions of barrels each month, so this dirt poor country is sitting on huge amounts of gas and oil and we used our military to basically suppress the development of a oil gas industry using the flag waving excuse of fighting terror as the reason.
Should I be outraged because China is receiving oil and gas from Afghanistan, or is there more to 4 Presidents being in the White House during this crusade of bad decision making. What is the status of the Keystone Pipeline, can it be up and operational next year?
We should be happy for them .. and stop sending them my fucking money.
It gets even better ,for 20 years US mapped and probed the whole country revealing what could be exploited only for China to roll in on the red carpet
''Afghanistan has become the first country whose surface minerals have been mapped from the air.
The US Geological Survey released the results of a "hyperspectral imaging" effort, in which reflections of light from the ground are analysed.
Different minerals - as well as snow or vegetation - reflect specific colours, resulting in a "mineral map".
The map comprises more than 800 million data points corresponding to an area of 440,000 sq km, some 70% of the country.''
Folks have been surveying Afghanistan for decades ,but Chinese are probably only ones pragmatical enough to extract ,they have no interest in regime change or any other political pressure on the Taliban , as long as the taliban can provide security Chinese will build and extract. Given China also borders Afghanistan that might also be logistically feasible .
During the 1960s and 1970s the USSR and its Eastern European allies conducted extensive surveys of the country’s geological resources. However, decades of war meant that most resources remained buried.
In 2010, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) together with Afghanistan Geological Survey (AGS) conducted the most comprehensive geological survey of the country identifying 24 specific areas of interest (AOI) across Afghanistan’s 34 provinces.
The areas of interest are colour-coded on the map below. They include: valuable metal reserves (green), building material reserves (yellow), industrial mineral reserves (purple) and areas with oil and gas (red).
And the Brits thought they’d be better than the Khans, the Soviets thought they’d be better than the Brits, and the US thought it would be better than the Soviets.
I rather welcome China taking a stab at it.
China isn’t (probably) trying to conquer them. All they want to do is business
Business, with the undisputed world champs in grifting and corruption at every single level.
They will get real familiar with the term “baksheesh”.
They are purely business, they do not demand a LGBT bar in kabul, women's schools and rights. They come in and asses the risk-reward ratio and if it doesn't work they move on , no boots on the ground .
As for corruption I taught Taliban are the Law and Order party
Or maybe Chicom contractors hire Eric Princ to work with the Taliban, aren't the Frontier Services Group or whatever it called now incorporated in China.

The Chinese already paid billions in bribes for contracts that fell through while the US occupation was still on. To think it’s going to be any different under the Taliban is foolish.They are purely business, they do not demand a LGBT bar in kabul, women's schools and rights.

The one thing Afghans know is hustling. They’re dirt fucking poor at all but the highest levels, and will do whatever is needed to put bread on the table. Anyone trying to do business will be paying up at every checkpoint, load point, delivery point, export port, and throughout the application process starting at submission and every level of approval needed.
The leadership may have changed, but the grifting culture there goes back many centuries, and nothing will change that.
So again, I hope China tries to break into there to do business, I welcome them learning some lessons.
Time to move CIA heroin cultivation to Ukraine ,soil quality and abundance could dwarf courrent narco farmers
