The Boston Globe's Invisible Ink: Trillion Dollar Gold Mine in Afghanistan
Don't they ever run out of the stuff?

"Vast deposits of mineral wealth are discovered in Afghanistan; US says impact on war, economy could be dramatic" by James Risen, New York Times | June 14, 2010

WASHINGTON — The United States has discovered nearly $1 trillion in untapped mineral deposits in Afghanistan, far beyond any previously known reserves and enough to fundamentally alter the Afghan economy and perhaps the Afghan war itself, according to senior American government officials.

Translation: We are NEVER LEAVING, America!!

The previously unknown deposits — including huge veins of iron, copper, cobalt, gold, and critical industrial metals like lithium — are so big and include so many minerals that are essential to modern industry that Afghanistan could eventually be transformed into one of the most important mining centers in the world, the US officials believe.

Good thing bin Laden attacked us, huh, America?

That stoo-pid idiot did us a big favor by getting us in there, didn't he?

The vast scale of mineral wealth was discovered by a small team of Pentagon officials and American geologists....

Actually, I have HAD IT with the SELF-SERVING S*** from the U.S. military!

So the Obama administration is hungry for some positive news to come out of Afghanistan. Yet the American officials also recognize that the mineral discoveries will almost certainly have a double-edged impact.

Instead of bringing peace, the mineral wealth could lead the Taliban to battle even more fiercely to regain control of the country....

The mineral deposits are scattered throughout the country, including the southern and eastern regions near Pakistan....

What a COINCIDENCE of TIMING, huh?
