So what you are saying is, that anything positive that happens there can be attributed to Canadian forces and all the bad can be contributed to US forces.
OMG, it's all so clear now. Canada is after Afghanistan's oil! They were there so that must be the only reason, right?
Hagbard
Hagbard, are you denying that those actions are happening in Afghanistan?
I want to get you on record as denying it before I make you look even more like a fool then you have already done to yourself.
Some of its true, some is half true, and some are bs. Its mostly "spin". We're not getting the "whole story".
Well pray tell, what is the whole story? What parts are being left out.
Spill it man. If you know something for sure than let us all in on it.
Which part do you deny is happening? What is the spin. Don't be shy. Tell us.

Sure buddy!
Afganistan now has a unified currency again ---> true but we're not hearing how successful it's been across the country. Spin.
A military is being built to keep the warlords out of power -----> true, but won't work. Spin.
Infrastructure is being put back into place ----->In Kabul, partly true. Spin.
Women are back in school ---->Likely untrue outside of Kabul or places where they're allowing the foreign press. Spin.
Women are driving ----> Wow.
A natural gas pipeline is going in which will create annual revenue and jobs -----> which you denied for weeks. Its not being done for the people of Afghanistan.
I denied that there were any current plans, until there were current plans. I have never denied an afgan pipeline is desirable by many countries and companies. I am also glad it is being built, as it shows that afganistan is becoming a more stable place and it will provide jobs and revenue for the country.
Hagbard
I have always denied that an OIL pipeline was being put through Afghanistan. There is still no OIL pipeline even being proposed to go through there. Try to keep your stories straight.
Will the people of Afghanistan benefit from the Natural Gas pipeline that has been proposed? Yes or no please.
But you are partially correct, it's not being done just for the people of Afghanistan, it will also benefit the people of Pakistan and India. I even imagine a few companies might make a few dollars off of it, god forbid that would be so fvcking terrible wouldn't it? Some companies make some money, workers get jobs and the governments of three countries get tax revenue to spend on their citizens. Progress is just so freaking horrible to contemplate.
Will you please read the link I provided on the deforestation of Afghanistan. It's just so freaking depressing, even the ecology of the region might get helped out a little. Damn shame.
I still ask you for one shred of proof, not speculation but proof, that the US went into Afghanistan because they wanted oil.

Again, that's $4 trillion in the Caspian to hit the market, we benefit whether or not the US is directly involved in the project (and there's no reason to believe that we aren't involved, whether we hear about it or not).
WTF is the difference? What, now US companies are not allowed to do business overseas?

Exactly. There is an opportunity for business to invest in Afghanistan, so they are. Moonbeam, pray tell, who exactly employs you? Unless you employ yourself, you are reaping the benefits of a company. Why should Afghanistan be any different? I swear, you must want them to live as they did in the middle ages, subsiding of the land and whatever the king granted them. Heaven forbid that anyone invest there, it might bring their economy to the 19th century.
