Thanks for the heads up and informative replies.

The pattern here is that China telecoms are helping not only the Taliban but also Iraq. Iraq and Taliban probably communicate over Chinese communications.

This is part of CLinton's legacy.

The Repubs and the current administration know all this but not only say "lets move on" when it comes to China and Clinton, but they also still are saying hands off Iraq and CHina so far. A lot of wealthy Repubs have big investments in China and do not want relations to sour if we start dismantling China communications equipment by overthrowing Sadam in Iraq.
