They all get their talking points/marching orders from the same top dog.

It’s the rare earth metals/minerals the Afghans are sitting on that has everybody taking a swing at extracting.

They know exactly what happened and who fired especially if this was an airstrike. This is a stupid delay game they’re playing.

"They" being the "most transparent administration" in US history, according to King Fubo.

What would those rare earth metals/minerals be?

GOLD is unique in many ways. It never tarnishes, for one. I DOUBT that gold will be replaced with any other metal.
If the Afganis had gold it would already be a first world country. Maybe it's way, way, way, way down in their earth. It that case, the miners always measure the worth of the mineral with the time and risk of the miners.

Gunpowder Green posts: It was a JSOC close air support mission. Helicopter gunships and an AC130 were involved.

Retreating Taliban took cover in the hospital and fired on Afghan Army elements, the gunships returned fire. That’s about all there was to it.

That's about as close to an accurate quick assessment of the incident as we will get immediately.

However, this is about Obama, not the US military that the Drive By Media are moving to blame. The same military could not support their own at the US Embassy in Bengazi, Libya, because of Obama's direct orders, and several senior officers were cashiered for attempting to do so. OBAMA pulls the trigger or not, the military only follow orders, and will be stabbed in the back for this.

So Obama wanted to punish DWB for a reason that will be covered up by the Media as they always cover for Obama.

That's what this is about.

Pgh Baldy posts: They ARE the terrorist (loving) people. They apparently support muslim terrorists against Israel.

Medecins Sans Frontieres / Doctors Without Borders are loved by the left. They are supposedly “neutral,” but they seem to take a pro-terror stance when it comes to Israel. I have never trusted them.

They ain't got me fooled either, that's why I called them "good" Commies, and observed they are not smart.

I have a periodic chart on my kitchen wall. ALL known minerals are there. The "new" ones are ONLY combinations of old ones plus heat/cold/pressure, etc. Nothing new but gold is still king.

So, let me know which rare earth minerals you are thinking of. I'll just walk into my kitchen and CHECK IT OUT. :o)

“It’s the rare earth metals/minerals the Afghans are sitting on that has everybody taking a swing at extracting.”

Exactly! It’s the Chinese who have brokered deals with whoever is seemingly in charge, (including the extreemly wealthy power brokers in the U.S.), for the ‘rights’ to those minerals.

Not too many years ago on a FR thread, there were a few of us speculating that the primary mission of western troops in Afghanistan was to bring just enough civility to that savage Stone Age country, to make it possible to start mining operations there. No country or *corporation* will invest the billions of dollars needed to set up such an operation while the country is still in the chaos of tribal war lords feuding with one another over decades long, or even century’s long disputes regarding whose cousin insulted the *prophet* by taking a wife from a neighboring village that doesn’t practice Islam the right way. But the speculation was/is that the Chinese are the ones who have dibs on the minerals, for multiple reasons.
