But that "Caspian" diary does provide some good background on the region... In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes
In an INN World Report interview today about his book -- "The New Great Game: Blood and Oil in Central Asia" -- Lutz Kleveman said that the infamous Afghan pipeline plans are being "dusted off."
Then, I spotted this April 12 Al-Jazeera article: "Disputed Afghan pipeline reviewed." . . . More below . . .
I wroter a full diary to explain this in detail, which you can find here: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2005/4/16/9380/00448
Please. Afghanistan was NOT about oil. Just a simple fact: the only conceivable pipe going through Afghanistan would be a gas pipeline, not an oil pipeline.
