US government won't get it's hands on that shit, but they will stand guard as corporations loot it. The US military is turning into a blunt tool for corporations and neo-conservatives idealogues A fucking shame for all the brave men and women dying for this hoax of a war.
500 well trained and well funded intelligence operatives and some smart bombs would have done more to end Al Qaeda than the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan.
A trillion dollars.... is that all? George W Bush added 7 Trillion to US government debt over 8 years with unfunded tax cuts for the rich and corporations, and 2 new wars. We then got to see how well trickle down economics worked when the GFC hit. Obama continued the debt trend, he continued giving money to the banks, but at least he took some from Iraq and some of the spending built infrastructure.
They need 10 afghanistan mineral despoits to cover the spending. The USA's leading export product is debt.
