They are distorting and politicizing the basic facts on natural reserves
of
Afghanistan- I have a lot of knowledge about the topic- I am (%100 sure) you can not put a price tug on largely unexplored natural reserves of gems and minerals of Afghanistan, period.
Afghanistan,
(a rather huge country, around
250000 square miles which is almost the size of Texas and with population
of
around 40 millions),
is being unbelievably casually managed like
a
little
monopolized
private business.
So, extremely complex; but, yet so simplified by foreign meddling
( thugs and thug-mars).
