The role of China in the future of Afghanistan
Beijing may be preparing to play a pivotal role in a chessboard that has been a source of instability and conflict for decades. Giancarlo Elia Valori’s analysis
“My friend, I only want to talk about happy things!”. With this surprising joke, the president of the United States, Joe Biden , (not) answered the question of a journalist who, in early July, asked him for an account of the withdrawal of the American and allied armed forces from Afghanistan, an announced withdrawal. for next September 11 but which began on the night of July 1 at the Bagram air base and was practically completed in a few days.
It is no surprise the reluctance of the US president to talk about the Afghan war: in twenty years the Americans have lost 2440 soldiers in the most useless conflict in recent history while their allies have registered the loss of 1,100 soldiers, 53 of them Italians, in comparison. armed, who turned out to be the loser, with those Taliban who, like the Vietnamese Viet Cong, proved capable of defeating and humiliating the greatest economic and military power on the planet.
In 2001, after the tragedy of the Twin Towers, George W. Bush decided to launch an offensive against the Taliban who had dominated Afghanistan since 1996, at the end of the difficult post-war period that followed the defeat of the Soviets after a decade of war (1979- 1989).
The Americans, demonstrating that they do not know how to “read” history (that of others, but also theirs, as Vietnam demonstrates), in just two months managed to overthrow the Taliban government, accused of having offered a safe haven to Osama Bin Laden and to his Al Qaeda guerrillas, and to install a “friendly” government in Kabul. In the following twenty years, the Taliban, like the Vietnamese and after them the Iraqis, proved to Washington not only that the simple power of military means is not enough to defeat a strongly motivated enemy army with undeniable support. popular based on total intolerance of foreign presence, but also that the Western democracy model cannot be exported as if it were a normal consumer good.
Yet, before embarking on a very expensive and unsuccessful twenty-year conflict in Afghanistan, the United States could and should have studied the history of a country that had humiliated the British Empire in three conflicts (from 1839 to 1919) before, and the Soviet one, then.
In 1842, the British, after trying for three years to bring turbulent Afghan tribes under control, were forced, after seeing their plenipotentiary, William Hay Macnaghten, murdered in cold blood during negotiations with the tribal chiefs, made a ruinous escape from Kabul, which has remained in the annals of history as the “death march”.
In 1979, the Soviet Red Army invaded the country to install the puppet government of the communist Babrack Karmal in the capital, provoking the rebellion of the Afghan Mujahideen, the “warriors of faith”, and found themselves having to leave Afghanistan 10 years later. after suffering the loss of 15,000 soldiers, a defeat that accelerated the collapse of the Soviet Union.
The mujahideen and their allies, the Taliban (students of the Koranic schools) came, with a myopia explainable only by the ideological excesses of the “Cold War”, equipped with very modern weapons by the Americans eager to help bring Soviet opponents to their knees, with a move that turned out to be completely counterproductive because the Afghans not only did not show any gratitude towards their “overseas allies” but at the right moment they turned those weapons against them.
When George W. Bush embarked on the Afghan adventure, he did not take into account not only the precedents of history, but also the rocky stamina of an adversary who has always benefited from the support of the population.
According to Carter Malkasian, a consultant (evidently little listened to) of the Washington government, the obvious reason for the ineffectiveness of the American intervention is due, firstly, to the influence of Islam and, secondly, to the xenophobic hatred of the population towards foreign influence.
“The mere presence of the Americans and their allies in Afghanistan – writes Malkasian in his book“ The American War in Afghanistan. A History ”- urged men and women to defend their honor, their religion and their homes. He pushed young people to fight. He animated the Taliban. It destroyed the will of the Afghan soldiers and the police ”.
The numbers of the American defeat in the longest war in the history of the United States are dramatic: in addition to the losses of US soldiers and NATO allies, tens of thousands of Afghan soldiers and civilians have died, while over two million refugees have poured across the border, mostly into Iran and Pakistan.
As the American analyst Robert Burns writes , the Afghan conflict “has shown that it is possible to win battles and lose wars … The war has shown that something more than a powerful army like the American one is needed to convert the overthrow of a government, like the fragile one the Taliban had, into lasting success. It has also shown that to win, at the very least, an understanding of local politics, history and culture is required, all factors that, for Americans, have been difficult to acquire.”
With the “retreat” of the night of July 1, the war in Afghanistan ended earlier than expected (President Biden had set the symbolic date of September 11 for the withdrawal) and the contextual departure of foreign armies has definitively left the field free. to the Taliban who today claim control of 50% of the territory and most of its borders.
The war may continue as a civil war, with government troops still perched – no one knows for how long – in the cities and with the Taliban in full control of the countryside and mountains.
In this scenario, two new geopolitical protagonists appear on the battered chessboard: Pakistan and China. Pakistan, which, under the absent gaze of the Americans, secretly supported (very little) the Taliban and their allies throughout the conflict – let’s not forget that Bin Laden, before being killed, had taken up residence a few hundred meters from a military academy Pakistani – and will probably find a modus vivendi with the Islamists who abound not only on its territory but also in its military institutions.
And there is China, which in the name of the traditional and consolidated doctrine of “non-interference with the habits and customs” of its political interlocutors has maintained contacts with the Taliban and therefore plans to derive a political dividend from the American defeat.
On July 28, Beijing Foreign Minister Wang Yi met a high-level Taliban delegation in Beijing, headed by Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar , highlighting China’s readiness to recognize a future Taliban government, should the guerrillas succeed in occupy Kabul.
The reason for this availability arises from the concern about the possible support of the Afghan Islamic extremists towards the Uyghur militant Islamists who live in the neighboring Xin Jiang province and who are fighting with the Chinese central government for the recognition of their ethnic and religious rights and are supported by the “Islamic Movement of East Turkestan” whose militants in Pakistan at the beginning of last June killed nine Chinese engineers in a bomb attack.
During the meeting with the Chinese foreign minister, the Taliban delegation assured that no hostile actions against China will be allowed from Afghan territory, stressing that the Uighur problem is an “internal Chinese problem” in which the Afghans do not intend to interfere.
For his part, the Chinese minister reiterated that China will not intervene in any way “in the domestic affairs of Afghanistan”.
Pakistan, whose Foreign Minister, Shah Mehmood Kureshi, organized the meeting between the Taliban and the Chinese, looks favorably on a possible future agreement between Beijing and the Taliban because it believes that it would stabilize the entire region and facilitate the return to home to the hundreds of Afghan refugees who flock to Pakistani slums.
The editor of the influential Chinese state tabloid Global Times, Hu Xijinm, in an article dated July 19, entitled “Making the Talibaninto enemies is not in China’s interest”, he stressed that “both the Afghan government and the Taliban have expressed their friendly attitude towards China and this is good for China” . Moreover, Hu Xijin stressed, “we should not make enemies at a crucial moment: China knows its interests and knows that the goodwill of the Taliban will allow us to positively influence the Afghan affairs and maintain stability in Xinjiang”. Even the US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, in commenting on the meeting between the Taliban and the Chinese, spoke of a “positive event that can help stabilize the situation throughout the region”.
In short, with the addition of the unexpected US endorsement, Beijing can set about playing a fundamental role in a chessboard that has been a source of instability and conflict for decades, launching a process of pacification that will open new perspectives for the construction of the “Silk and Belt Road ”, a new“ Silk Road ”destined to develop the economies of the entire Far East by shifting the future center of gravity of geopolitics from West to East.

…… Afghanistan is preparing the Narco-state that will flood the world with heroin
After the NATO withdrawal, now the Taliban march on Kabul, financing themselves with the immense mo0netary proceeds from opium which the CIA onced offered the mujahideen against the Soviet Russians
But let ‘s see the matter in detail:
- The advance of theology students towards the capital
- The first moves of the CIA against the Soviets
- Blue Moon and the devastating politics of the 1980s
- Bin Laden instead of the Russians
- The expanses of poppies in the country
- The farce of the opium world war
- The explosion of drug addiction around the world
- The birth of the Taliban Narco-State
- The narcoterrorism of Isis and the mujahideen
The advance of theology students
A criminal activity, that of opium cultivation, controlled above all by the Taliban and the warlords , which already employs half a million peasants. Just as ISIS from 2014 onwards accumulated enormous wealth with the proceeds of crude oil, becoming the richest terrorist organization of all time, so too the Taliban have found their oil in the opium poppy, the flower that covers entire provinces of Afghanistan . By now almost exclusively controlling the country’s exports, former theology students derive 60% of their income from its trade , thanks to which they are now about to win the war against Kabul hands down .
The first moves of the CIA against the Soviets
But the parable of the relationship between opium and Islamic fundamentalists in the country dates back to far away. In fact, at the end of the 1970s it was the CIA, in an anti-Soviet function, that launched the well-known Cyclone operation, aimed at financing the militias of the Afghan mujahideen, which resisted the troops of Moscow, active in the country for ten years until 1989. But they certainly could not have done it with their own means. Thus, according to well-accredited and now established sources, the CIA and the ISI (the Pakistani secret services) have provided, also thanks to the induced proceeds of opium, weapons and military assistance for about two billion dollars to Islamic fundamentalist groups. Among them, an increasingly bulky and aggressive leader would emerge , Osama Bin Laden.
Blue Moon and the devastating politics of the 1980s
According to Professor Alfred McCoy, author of an essay on “heroin politics” conducted by US intelligence, the consequence of what was now universally called the “secret war of the CIA” was that in the mid-1970s the production opium and related refineries between Afghanistan and Pakistan exploded, and with them heroin exports to the west. So much so that in the early 1980s heroin addiction saw cases double in the US . A conspicuous chapter apart could deserve the infamous Operation Blue Moon, agreed between the CIA and some European services to inundate the disputes with heroin at very low cost, in those years. A nefarious maneuver that caused the tragedy of many generations of young people in Europe and the USA and that was the premise of the AIDS tragedy , when it was not yet known that the exchange of needles between drug addicts would be lethal.
Bin Laden instead of the Russians
In fact, returning to Asia, with a constant progression of opium production and the financing of the mujahideen, the CIA had achieved the goal of Russian withdrawal from the country , in 1989, but at a very high price: that of having transformed the Afghanistan in hell . At the beginning of the new millennium, and on the eve of the US invasion, with the Taliban in power in Kabul, domestic production was close to 5,000 tons of opium per year, half of which turned into brown sugar. It was at that point that, with a coup de theater, the Taliban sought international legitimacy , pretending in fact to inhibit, if not to prohibit the cultivation of opium. The aim was above all to bring the Americans, increasingly distant, to a more conciliatory policy. Nobody knows what calculation led Bin Laden and his people to launch the attack , apparently completely senseless in this light, on New York and Washington.
The expanses of poppies in the country
But the story is known and within a month the US troops entered without much difficulty as far as Kabul . Is it all over then? In reverse. In 2008, half of Afghanistan’s GDP came from opium and from then on each year there were 6,300 tons produced, in the second poorest country in the world . In 2008, therefore, overcoming Burma, Afghanistan became the world’s largest producer of opium, largely refined in heroin. Most of the opium produced in Afghanistan comes from the provinces of Kandahar and Helmand , of which the latter is considered the main producer. It is also estimated that only one percent of illegally exported heroin in Afghanistan is intercepted and destroyed.by national governments. According to the Sigar report (Inspectorate General for the Reconstruction of Afghanistan) and the head of the Russian drug services Viktor Ivanov , 150 billion doses are produced every year in the battered country.
The farce of the opium world war
From 2002 to today, the US has allocated 8 and a half billion dollars to remove opium from the country. But exactly the opposite happened. Indeed, it would have been child’s play for the occupation troops to devastate the poppy fields , but it was decided not to do so precisely in order not to take away the livelihoods of half the population. Of course, nobody even wanted to go against the powerful local warlords, not least Ahmed Wali, brother of Hamid Karzai , the Afghan president, or Gul Agha Sherzai, the undisputed ruler in the province of Kandahar , who received ten million dollars to eliminate the competition, but to whom a poppy stem was not wronged. 
The drug addiction boom around the world
The effect of the overproduction of opium, according to the UN, was however that, up to five years ago, to raise the number of drug addicts in the country from 900 thousand to two and a half million in ten years, involving almost one in three families. 9 percent of the adult population. Also according to UN data, in the twenty years of US occupation the number of Afghans below the poverty line has more than doubled, from 9.1 million to 19.5 million. Many Afghan refugees in Iran have returned to the country since 2008 after seeking a new life across the border. When they ended up as laborers or stone quarters, they had been exploited and paid in heroin. They are the zombies that for years have been seen wandering around Kabul,full-blown drug addicts with no hope of a future. And Pakistan has also paid the price for the great return of heroin , with 7 million citizens using drugs and about 700 cases of overdose per day. And in the world, according to the UN, over the past decade opioid-related deaths in the world have increased by 71%. In 2019 alone, overdose deaths were over 70 thousand in the US.
The birth of the Taliban Narco-State
We come therefore to the present day. While in Doha, out of time, the US summoned the Taliban to seek an impossible diplomatic solution to the conflict, at the same time they send bombers to the Afghan skies, for a war from the sky which , like all other recent conducts, could only to determine incalculable civilian casualties, without altering the fate of the conflict. Because today wars are won on earth . With the American withdrawal, therefore, the Taliban saw the enormous financial potential of opium: now far from inhibiting its production for ideological reasons (or political strategies) and now, after having conquered without resistance the main cities and provinces of the North, they march compactly on Kabul, which they will take within a few months, to then create their own powerful Narco-State , in the shadow of shaaria and terror, able to stand almost entirely on the production of opium. How? Flooding the world with heroin, as happened in the 1980s , but this time with even more devastating consequences. The monster, in short, once again got out of hand, like an alien creature kept for a long time in the laboratory. And soon we will have to deal with it. At incalculable prices.
The narcoterrorism of Isis and the mujahideen
For some years now, the West has also been concerned about the phenomenon of narcoterrorism , or the alliance between the networks of global jihad (not least Isis, now hegemonic in many areas of Africa) and the cartels of drug traffickers , ready to guarantee logistics and armed support in exchange for narcodollars. The first to sound the alarm in this sense were the Russians, who last year in the United Nations Security Council estimated the turnover of Isis from drug trafficking at almost one billion dollars per year. But the pact between jihadists and narcos was born upstream, among the poppy fields in Afghanistan. Until 2001 opium was considered by Taliban leaders to be contrary to Islam. Then with the scent of money and things changed. Until 2008, the Taliban were earning 92 million dollars a year by imposing a tax on farmers. Since 2011, the strategy has changed. And now the West is waiting for the bang.

……..My comment
Any white man and especially any national socialist must view the rise of semi-communist China ambivalently. In some ways, this anti-libtard, anti-degenerate and nationalist culture is good. China is semi-national-socialistic, with a capitalist economy supervised by the state as with us in the NS era.
I need to find a meme again which I ran on this site.
***
It shows two US teenage females, a white Antifa and a black BLM chick, fecklessly asking
“With Whitey gone, what now?”
A Chinese guy with a yellow peasant hat on and a droopy Fu Manchu mustache answers the girls icily:
“NOW YOU WORK BAUXITE MINE.”
***
My fear is that the Chinese will continue to work with the jewish traitors embedded in the West to totally wipe all Aryan whites out, and one of these means would be drug addiction.
As communists, they are totally ruthless. In fact, the Chinese rulers were ruthless and callous toward their own people and others even before communism took over in 1949.

British soldiers in Afghanistan were ordered not to destroy the poppy fields , even walk around the fields . As the crop is the rag heads source of income. Soldiers had to walk along designated routes around the poppy fields thus detonating IEDs. The West could buy the rag heads opium crop for £500 Million per annum. Compared to the billions caused by heroin flooding the streets each year. As I write Afghan rapeugees are being settled in Worcestershire, the Bishop Inge( little wanker ) and the Councillors are having orgasms with delight at their arrival. Even the jew councillor, James Carver welcomes them. A historical point , the jews ran and profited from the opium trade to the Chinese. Where there’s human suffering the jews aren’t far behind making a profit.
Something I have from leftist quarters is that the CIA and other American federal secret police are heavily involved in the heroin business. This particular business affords them a large source to money that need not be accounted for or acknowledged as existing in their hands.
Let anti white jews, muslims and chinese destroy each other -they hate each other anyway.
They will first destroy the whites, whom they hate even more.
Yes, if they could.
