Supposedly, Obidens handlers(run by China—who knows) want him to give Afghanistan to China. They may well buy the Tallybong for a while but truth is always the same in the mideast with few exceptions. Muslim terrorists hate infidels.They always have always will.
Will they take their money and use it against them? Sure. Will they bond with infidels and make them buddys? Not likely.

Well, if we go by how the Indians recently whooped some China ass in the little dust up they had a few months ago, this bodes well for interesting times for any Chinese in Afghanistan.
I know the Muslims have some grudging respect for Christians and Jew as being fellow “People of the Book,” which the Chinese are not.
Note: Non state ally = Al Qaeda
Note: "The US government covertly provided violent schoolbooks filled with militant Islamic teachings and jihad and images of weapons and soldiers in an effort to inculcate in children anti-Soviet insurgency and hate for foreigners. The Taliban used the American textbooks but scratched out human faces in keeping with strict fundamentalist interpretation. The United States Agency for International Development gave millions of dollars to the University of Nebraska at Omaha in the 1980s to develop and publish the textbooks in local languages"
"US Government" = Clowns

UK, Russia and the US all went into Afghanistan to “conquer” them. If the Chicoms go in with a plan to do nothing more than mine the resources and pay the Taliban a goodly chunk of money, what’s the downside for the Taliban?
As long as there is no mining in the poppy fields, an alternative income stream may look enticing to the T-bans.
Destroying the land in a mining process is probably not very high on the T-bans give-a-crap list.
