Thanks Aspen Institute & David, for the enlightening information.
Pakistan Nuclear arms, Afghan takeover by Teleban & Nato/US (foolish) intervention; trapped USA in a tangle of intrigue & inextricable relationships.
China as David pointed out, had a free ride by not taking sides.
Why US didn't explore option of Fiscal Stimulus (create jobs) for that under-developed ( make the army / yourself popular before venturing in ) region; is beyond me.
