>>The first resource war of the 21st century is already on in Afghanistan<< That's utterly absurd. Minerals like copper, gold, iron and lithium are readily available on global markets at vastly cheaper rates than the price of conquest in Afghanistan. The USA itself has plentiful supplies of copper, gold, molybdenum, lead, and zinc in Alaska. Iron is common in the earth's crust, with a queue of global deposits lined up for development. The future demand for lithium is still highly speculative, so the notion of fighting for it is ridiculous. The real limiting factor is oil. It's incredibly useful, and unlike the metals it can't be recycled. I'm not aware of much oil in Afghanistan.
