In June and July of 2001, Unocal and UN/US officials were meeting with the Taliban in order to get them to allow a pipeline to be built through their country. The only sticking point was that the investors wanted US troops on the ground to protect their investment and the Taliban flat out refused.
Sources report that, They were told by a US delegate and former Ambassador for Pakistan "Either you accept our offer of a carpet of gold, or we bury you under a carpet of bombs."
Unocal – which led a consortium of companies from Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Turkmenistan, Japan and South Korea – has maintained the project is both economically and technically feasible once Afghan stability was secured.

Afghanistan, the TAPI Pipeline, and Energy Geopolitics

Condoleezza Rice-She was so good they named her twice
Condoleezza Rice, the woman with the plan, worked for Chevron right up till Jan. 15th 2001, 5 days before she went to work for President Bush in his cabinet.
But she was already working for him heading up what she called “The Vulcans”… that was Bush’s foreign
policy advisory team which consisted of many war-mongering neoconservatives.As it just so happens, Chevron ended up buying Unocal, and therefore their interests in the Afghanistan pipeline.
As we now know, the pipeline project has been restarted and it’s being built just as it was originally designed. A former Unocal lobbyist and consultant, Zalmay Khalilzed, became the US Ambassador to Afghanistan in 2003.

So while Our Boys continue to be repatriated through Wootton Bassett draped in Britains Colours and carried in full honours the Corporate Oil and Gas Deals continue.
If Irans pipeline project (IPI) becomes more viable and the Nations involved withdraw from the Wests (TAPI) project, because of the volatility of Afghanistan, then it will be highly likely that the West will go to War once again. This time with Iran !

The rhetoric began long ago between the West and Iran yet whilst all this posturing and Corporate activity continues OUR BOYS DIE in a desert, in an alien Country, for a cause that beggars belief.
