There is whole bunch of off topic spam and trolling again.
I will wait to see what remains of it a few days later for a better reply and use of time then.
Take it easy guys. Think of bigger picture when handling arguments.
AFG war thread is a complete troll-spam fest, lets not bring the issues of that one here.
Remember govt (net) spending only addresses demand side. Excess demand (and lagging supply) = inflation.
I would assume they ran into lot of supply chokepoints and thus created inflation (known to them, but not reported that much) with the spending in lot of areas. Hence the easy step is to...

Well the underlying population then would have been the turkic population today. The genetic distinctions in central asia have been blurry for quite long time....as to iranic + turkic lineages of the population themselves.
Though I will admit I have not looked into it at the depth required.
Yes but these wars were not of the same depopulative style genocide the mongols carried out in their first expansive phases. They were not content say with just killing the elite that chose to resist them (or a few days of punitive pillage)....that was more the norm of the time.
It bears a real...
The mission in brutal terms was largely punitive one in relation to 9/11.
i.e to both punish as many of the perpetrators (ASAP) and then reduce as far as possible AFG's (and relevant neighbours too given abbotabad) potential to harbour elements that could plan and project such terrorist attacks...

The mongols inflicted some of the worst atrocities at scale (on mankind) on turkic areas in central asia (and they would do so on persians, chinese, arabs and russians as...
This is precisely why Taiwan needs to invest in SSM saturation capability of Chinese harbour infrastructure in the opening blitz of any war.
PLA and PLAN logistics are heavily dependent on it for amphibious invasion (Staging and execution)....so that is where ROC needs to step up its game to...
