Surprise, Surprise: US Finds Close to $1 Trillion in "Previously Unknown" Mineral Deposits in Afghanistan

Convenient.  Maybe there was more than just poppy and pipelines that influenced our decision to go into Afghanistan.  The NYT reports here on this story.

I wonder if the Afghanistan citizens will be allowed to profit from any of this.  Call it a hunch, but the US is not going to share much, but just it's a hunch.
