5. I suspect more grief

I concur with Lithos that the Chinese may take their hand. Nobody likes a terrorist-breeding cesspit on their borders and I suspect that the PRC will send trips into Afghanistan.

I suspect that the Chinese will play a lot rougher than we did. I suspect they’ll try to do to the Afghans what they’re currently doing in China’s Central Asian provinces.

I’m no friend of the Taliban. Let them reap what they’re sowing.
