'They've been using this excuse for being in Afghanistan since at least Victorian times... so why again now? Some strange sort of CYA, perhaps?

So, at present estimate, all of Afghanistan's mineral wealth would still fall way short of covering Dov Zacheim's $2.3trillion heist from the Pentagon a while back.

As they used to say on Usenet - PLONK. ;-)
