I did say gas as well. If you notice the route of this pipe is the area which the troops are fighting in.
I read about this proposed pipeline ages ago. Probably more than a decade. Thanks for the link, I forgot all about it. It could certainly be a reason we're there, if OSB and the Taliban didn't want to allow the pipeline, well then they had to go.

I guess we need to keep sending aid and troops, we must protect the interests of big oil.
