Going to trashcanistan was about money laundering and black budgets. It was a bottomless pit for the Military-Industrial Complex, and from that cash, as well as cash directly spent by the Military, a lot of money disappeared to... somewhere. Rumor is some transnational police force being prepared for use against us. On the black budget end, the CIA restarted Poppy production, so that they could have a black budget.
Leaving trashcanistan was Trump bringing that shit to an end, knowing that the Taliban would take over Afghanistan. So he shrewdly negotiated with the Taliban, for an orderly withdrawl, and for no interference from them. The generals and admirals leftover from Obama were against leaving, because they got a lot of money on the side. Trump forced them to make and execute a plan to leave trashcanistan. And then they slow walked it and waited for Biden.
Biden showed up, and promptly did what he was told: he turned our leaving trashcanistan into a surrender/replay of Saigon. He also left a ton of military equipment behind that the Taliban can't use, but will probably wind up in Iran. Biden and his son Hunter own 10% of a Chinese company that mines Lithium, and Afghanistan has something between $1-3 trillon worth to be mined. (And we didn't make a deal for that!) To keep the money rolling in from that company, Biden did what China told him to do. And we left like a bunch of foolish cowards.
Remember, in 2001/02:
>The Taliban had reduced Poppy output to near zero in Afghanistan, making Heroin super expensive worldwide.
>Offered to capture bin Laden and try him by their law (and he was guilty by their interpretation of Islam).
>Didn't want war with the U.S./tried to negotiate with us.
Trashcanistan is a fucked up experience in fleecing the U.S. people of their own money and blood.
