The Chinese are probably perfectly OK with the Taliban as long as they aren’t in China.

ETIM One of the factions with the Taliban is East Turkmenistan Islamic Movement.

They have connections with Uyghurs in China and they will break off and start hitting into China. They will not listen to Taliban Central.

We should help them with covert aid and arms to destabilize China. We will be fighting with China within 20 years. It’s in America’s interest to assist them.
