Interesting times, my friend.
Some on the screaming face shows are talking about the benefits of pipelines to the new Afghan "government", adding realism by getting the other countries wrong (one talking about the Unocal line confused Tadjikistan with Turkmenistan).
Dostum, the Uzbek, is reportedly consolidating his control over the corridor from the Caspian hydrocarbon deposits through Afghanistan.
Actions speak louder than words. Whining about the differentiation between actions and "conspiracy theories" is irrelevant.
