We wouldn't have even had to be in Afghanistan. The Taliban offered, more than once, to turn Bin Laden over to a third country for trial if the US would show any proof that Bin Laden had anything to do with the 9-11 attacks, but Bush said "NO, we know he's guilty, screw you hand him over."

It was still stupid to occupy a worthless country..
Not to mention they took responsibility when they tried to collapse the twin towers years before.. Look that one up..
Clinton sent a few missiles that said Made In America C/O Bin Laden to Afghanistan.. Killed a few radicals..

Afghanistan actually has quite a bit of oil. Has a buttload of precious gems and rare minerals as well. Some of this was discussed in the 9-11 topic and I think one other one.

Don't forget about the hundreds of thousands, possibly over a million, innocent citizens due to bombings and sanctions on Iraq.

China tried drilling for natural gas and then came under fire by militants. They shutdown operations.. There is little world interest to invest in Afghanistan.. Too unstable and corrupt..
QUOTE Afghan Gold & Minerals Co., which was owned by a consortium led by JPMorgan Chase & Co. of the United States, was working on exploration of a gold deposit in northern Afghanistan and reviewing data from soil samples and drilling. The company planned to invest $50 million to develop a mine. The Government had also awarded Afghan Gold & Minerals the Balkhab copper exploration license in northwestern Afghanistan. Another company, Afghan Minerals group, was granted a license to explore the Shaida copper deposit in the Province of Herat. Turkish-Afghan Mining Co. was picked to explore and develop the Badakhshan gold-copper project in the Province of Badakhshan (Khaama Press, 2012).

Turkish-Afghan Mning Co. Has also partnered up with Afghan Gold and Minerals (owned by a consortium led by JPEG Morgan Chase).

Unstable and corrupt??!! That's just how the U.S. likes things. Easier to get business done that way.

So in your delusional world Bin Laden was the leader of the Taliban who was behind the 9-11 attack? And they were willing to turn their leader over to us?
