no shit...
did you see my comment about that on this very thread?
I know all about the BIG GAME, as Brzezinski named it. I actually studied Central Asia in great detail in college.
Then why did you state the following when it's not true?
I lived it. You're young. That's why we use to call general ed classes the 'soft sciences'.
I'm 55, dipshit, and have an MA in International Relations and a BA in Political Science. My thesis was on Pakistan and Nuclear Proliferation.
They absolutely don't care about Oil pipelines. They CANCELLED pipeline projects by Unocal, Shell, Enron and Haliburton. Although the invasion was specifically to restore the global heroin trade, it was hidden in the guise of the 9/11 attacks and oil greed.
Like I said you're a young whipper snapper. We use to say 'soft sciences' like political science degrees were the boatswain mates of college. We took those GE classes as mental R&R while taking the 'hard sciences' like engineering and physics.
In a short time, depending on the Caspian Sea oil reserves, and if there is no further war in Afghanistan, there will be a pipeline. Count on it.
I already explained this to you.
This is true, but there was also the oil pipeline and rare earth metals that was attractive too. And let us not forget about the Russian Encirclement policy too.
