If true, why didn’t we mine the minerals for the last 20 years we were there “rebuilding” the country? Why didn’t we at least have a partnership with US companies & the Afghanis to help them mine the minerals as part of rebuilding their country? Instead we protected the poppy crop.

Thats a great question. Instead of mining rare minerals we assisted opium production and sales.
