China is not going to invade the US anytime soon they lack any form of long range transportation capability.Also we are their biggest customer.

The minerals in Afghanistan is nothing new the Soviet Union knew about them years ago before their war there.The reason that US mining companies got the shaft (so did Canadian ones the largest mineral company is a Canadian firm)id because the Afghan government is corrupt and Chinese,Russian and Iranian companies got in the best bribes.We choose long ago to more or less allow the corruption so the bad mineral deals are actually our own fault. Oops.Also the US and Canadian companies should have done better research and made their move as soon as they had the results of the US surveys had they offered the best bribe the situation would be reversed the value was already roughly known as I said the USSR was heavily invested in mining in Afghanistan going all they way back into the 1950's.
