Ray; you simply don't link the relevance of Asia and/or Persian Gulf oil to Afghanistan.

That's why your assertion of Afghanistan's super importance fails to be logical.


I honestly don't care here about thousands of irrelevant things that are not linked to Afghanistan. Link them to Afghanistan and they may influence the appraisal of Afghanistan's relevance.

Until then you just appear to be someone who cannot think clearly but prefers to cheer the fashion of the day.


Your vague hinting at "context" is NO link.
