China's foreign policy is (officially at least) not meddling in internal affairs, China's inner policy has been in the last decades extremely capitalist (even if officially they maintain the "communist" formality, mostly a relic). China is not "hard line" against islamism: it makes deal with them in many countries such as Sudan, Iran or even Turkey (a NATO member that is also under islamist spell). They just want to control (or at least access) all that matters to them no matter how. The main difference with the USA (other than single party vs twin party) is that their foreign policy is "Bismarckian", while the US foreign policy is "Victorian" instead (or even more aggresive maybe but in any case on the footsteps of the British Empire). By "Bismarckian" I mean the kind of soft gloved imperialism that Germany practiced under Bismark, focused on getting access to open resources rather than forging an empire or even mostly challenging others' empires. That way they managed to overcome Britain c. 1900, making WWI probably unavoidable.

Sadly, this simply underlines how stupid America's policy has been: it should have made clear that it went into Afghanistan to neutralise Al Quaida, and not to remake Afghanistan in its own image: if it had done that and then got out and simply offered financial and other aid to Afghanistan, it would have benefited both Afghanistan and itself hugely. Now it will have to tread even more carefully with China. Let us hope that America can see that both it and China have an interest in ensuring that Afghanistan does not again become a hotbed for terrorism, and negotiate with China on that basis, rather than simply seeing China as a threat. We can but hope that there are sensible back-door talks of some sort going on between America and China: Anerica has strong leverage since it has Afghanistan's financial reserves: a partnership between China and Anerica to allow Afghanistan to rebuild itself and prosper would be by far the best way of ensuring that terrorist groups are not welcome in Afghanistan.

Are you talking about China as a civilization or states? Because their states have fallen repeatedly, and they've had several civil war / warring states periods. As for civilizations, there's been plenty of civilizations that stood 3000 to 1000 years long. I wouldn't really single out China for praise in this context.

dude its not pronounced al khida that sounds so stupid. Its al - kaa - ida meaning the base in Arabic.

Ah yes. So short. 20 years.

It's interesting to see how strong a devout leaders faith is when tested with money. The Taliban as well as every single other self-proclaimed champions of Islam not only turn a blind eye, but even form alliances with someone who is actively carrying out the persecution of over 1.5 Muslims in China... "The Qur’an (4:75) allows the use of force for defending other Muslims who are oppressed and are unable to defend themselves: ‘what has happened to you that you do not fight in the way of Allah and for the oppressed among men, women and children’. Here we find a different meaning. Whilst verse 22:39 allows the use of force in self-defence, verse 4:75 permits the use of force in the defence of those who are persecuted for believing in Islam and are unable to defend themselves. The threshold for using force in the defence of oppressed and weak Muslims is that the oppression suffered must be so severe as to compel Muslims to leave their homes, for instance, genocide or torture." Hmmm, sounds sort of like what China has done and is still doing to Uyghur Muslims in China... " [Islamic] justice.’38 ‘Islam is not a party of preachers and missionaries but rather of divine enforcers. Its mission is to blot out, by force if necessary, oppression, moral anarchy, social disorder and exploitation … and replace evil with good. " Perhaps that don't apply to those who are giving you money?... Praise to Allah! ... Unless ofcourse you pay me. 👳👳‍♀️🧕🙏 + 🇨🇳💵 = 🙈🙉🙊

Keep china in Afghanistan for long enough, let them do the same operations they do in Africa and Latin America then eventually the people will resent them and possibly rebel. I sense china in the next few decades will create their own Afghanistan war.

This is pretty obvious. "Hey Taliban?" "Yah?" "Wanna join the "Fuck America" club?"

It only a matter of time before China finds a old map with fresh ink saying that Afghanistan belongs to China since ancient times.

This alliance contradicts everything they stand for. I don’t imagine it will work it’s easier to just say words.

Agreed. He's been really jumping the gun with these videos lately. Is it just to race to get views? Going off too many assumptions and hearsay before they've even developed yet into anything meaningful, just like the Panjshir rebellion. The US didn't leave Afghanistan and push out the Soviets before that, just for China to grab the country. Likewise, the IEA/Taliban aren't going to let China do that either. The IEA has asked _all_ its neighbors to invest in Afghanistan, not just China. And its just a fact of reality that any country-especially third-world countries-are going to be trading with China with a lot of manufacturing coming from there anyways.

Thank you. We can only hope that China will have a moderating effect on the future policies in Afghanistan.
