A bleak Ghazni Province seems to offer little, but a Pentagon study says it may have among the world’s largest deposits of lithium. It is time for Afghanistan to grow up and become a real country rather than one laced with corruption. With this discovery, the national wealth Afghanistan increased immeasurably.
The country can afford to build schools, housing and COMMUNITIES with water supplies and sanitation.
It is time for Afghanistan to 'get real' about itself.
I sincerely hope NATO and the USA is also taking this seriously enough to PREVENT any exploitation of those NATURAL RESOURCES. It all belongs to the people of Afghanistan and NOT Wall Street.
So, before 'wealth merchants' rob the people of Afghansitan blind while Karzai and his brother deal under the table some serious negotiations have to take place to make sure the monies received from these resources are going to benefit the citizens of that country.
If these resources exist in Afghanistan, they more than likely exist in Pakistan as well.
