    China needs a land route to get their oil from Iran. China told Jihad Joe he needs to be out of Afghanistan NOW or they will release whatever it is they’re blackmailing him with. Jihad Joe panics and pulls out our military hoping China won’t be upset that a few civilians are left behind.

    Jihad Joe’s legacy just keeps getting worse.

    This is just the start of China moving into Afghanistan, militarily, commercially, and politically. It will be interesting to follow how the Taliban mix it up with the Islam-hating CCP.

    I think if the Taliban give China an inch then China will take a mile.

    Just a word of advice: If you want to win in 2022 and 2024 you need to convince moderates and Independents to vote for you because the base is NOT enough. Therefore, you should refrain from calling Biden names and making wild China blackmail claims. The best course of action is to let Biden hang himself and he is doing an incredibly good job of it. When something isn't broke, don't fix it.

    China wouldn’t even think about giving Trump orders, but the big guy has to earn his 10% cut from the money China is giving the little guy.m

    What a hilarious Conspiracy Theory...
    That is some truly hilarious "speculation"...:roflol:

    But you left out the part about Bigfoot being the mastermind...:bored:

    As far as China at Bagram?

    The Current Afghan Gov't is free to do as they please.

    They can open the door to Foreign Invitees as they see fit.

    The USA is done with Afghanistan...

    In other words, who cares?

    We can't control it. So, Why worry?

    Btw--The OP Link is to a BS Twitter account that isn't even worthy of being used as a "source".

    I don't know about the blackmail part but definitely China's interest in Afghanistan is that more direct land route to Iran. They have committed a 25 year $400 billion dollar plan to rebuild Iran. Their original route through Pakistan proved problematic so I think they are willing to invest billions in Afghanistan to accomplish the goal. Overall all it will probably help Afghanistan but it will serve only to increase China's power and reach.

    Lol so trump (who actually does make money in China) made a deal to leave but that was ok
    Biden (whos taxes show no money from China) stayed longer than trump and that’s proof it was a Chinese plot.
    Lol good luck selling that gibberish

    Blackmail claims are ridiculous, just as they were about Russia and Trump. As I said, moderates and Independents don't believe that **** so it would be wise not to make it look like you are wearing tin foil hats, same with calling Biden names. If you want to win then the right have to stop with the stupid stuff and let Biden hang himself. If the only goal is to rack up likes on a forum then by all means continue. Personally, I would rather win and oust Biden than rack up likes on a forum.

    Let's not forget the Lithium... $2 - $3 Trillion worth. You may also want to not forget all of the stocks given to Hunter for the $1.5 Billion deal with China. Those stocks are of a company that is the holding company for a huge Lithium Battery effort from China. I am sure the "Big Guy" won't mind his 10%.

    A spokesman for the Chinese Foreign Ministry on Tuesday issued a carefully crafted denial of plans for an imminent takeover of the military airfield roughly an hour from Kabul, first established by the Soviets during their own occupation in Afghanistan and which at the height of the U.S. military presence there was its busiest in the world.
    "What I can tell everyone is that that is a piece of purely false information," Wang Wenbin told reporters Tuesday morning. China has repeatedly denied many of its other military deployments beyond its borders.
    However, the current consideration in Beijing is not for any pending movements, rather a potential deployment as long as two years from now, the source says. And it would not encompass taking over the base but rather sending personnel and supplies at the invitation of the government in Kabul – and certainly after the Taliban secures its rule.


    Oh well...

    The "Lookie Here! Biden Bad!" Crowd (once again) FAILS Miserably...:bored:

    Afghanistan represents zero competition to China's bid for global hegemony. China will probably treat Afghanistan with kid gloves since the only thing China has to gain there is mineral resources. Unless China decides it wants to try its hand at playing 'civilize the barbarians' too...

    I think they will get along just fine. China has money; the Taliban wants it. And China isn't going to care about women going to school and gays being thrown off buildings. I think they have the potential to have a long lasting relationship.

    I dont care if China wants to follow us into Afghanistan, if it does then it becomes its own Vietnam for the Chinese and that's a great situation for us.

    you do know china didn't even recognize taliban in 1996-2001. china take alot advantage of US security from 2010-2020, and do businesses with previous afahan govt. they are interest in afahan due to the belt & road, but wont do anything till the situation in afahan stabilized. also china policy is non-interference, so they wont care about human right/corruption inside afahan, its businesses to them whether it was previous afahan or the current one.
    as for owning joe, lol, you do know Trump family have the most businesses with china.

    look like they try to make deal with taliban

    Trump has business interests there like Apple, Disney and countless others business people. The difference is it’s been quite clear Trump doesn’t cater to them. Biden on the other hand has bent over. So want to recheck your opinion on who owns who? If China owned Trump please explain their hatred of him and his directness towards all the BS they pull. The Biden family on the other hand is quite friendly with them…wonder why.

    Rich guy has business in China doesn’t mean China controls the rich guy. Rich guy also blasts China for 4 years. China doesn’t do anything besides release a plague to get rich guy out of office because he isn’t cooperating.

    Vs

    Politicians incompetent son has dealings in China, and big daddy defends China, even calling the prior president racist for banning travel.

    Again, tell me again who has control?

    It is amazing how people can live through the same times and see things totally different.

    But the fact that you think China released COIVD just to get rid of Trump is all I think anyone needs to know about your view of things.

    Why then did Trump agree to leave Afghanistan and even take the troop strength down by 82% before leaving office?

    China was already working with the Taliban while Trump was doing this.
