It's working out exactly as planned. This was a long term project that had to start by securing the areas the pipeline was going to run through, which just so happened to be smack dab in the middle of.... wait for it... Taliban territory.

Probably no coincidence that this pipeline was being discussed back in 1997 before 9-11 happened. But they had to establish peace in the country first. And they more or less did, it just took a while and is still a work in progress.
