Re: [MBZ] Toyota disgusts me.
China already has deals in the works, via the Belt and Road initiative. China has no concerns on human rights, etc. all they have asked is the the Taliban steer clear of any issues with the Muslim population in China, and they agreed. I can provide documentation, but really this discussion is best addressed on Okie talk.

Re: [MBZ] Toyota disgusts me.
China will have met its match on individual corruption with Afghanistan. It would be a great partnership. Mutual destruction assured. I lived in Afghanistan and the Northern Tribal Territories [Northern Pakistan tribal area] among the tribes for 7 years during the "Russia era". I gained a rather pure understanding of the people and culture held by few others. Good luck, China. It will be an experience you will not forget quickly.

It also helps to totally own the largest opium production poppy fields in the world, just to finance those necessary war items, while being ruthless.

Re: [MBZ] Toyota disgusts me.
The massive King of Tonga - which had 8 miles of road at the time - purchased a 600 Grosser back in 1969. The car was delivered but somehow the key was lost. It sat on the dock for 3 weeks awaiting a replacement so his rolypoly Highness could travel in Style.

Re: [MBZ] Toyota disgusts me.
They can't really control who buys them though. What can they do, not sell to the middle east? So Nissan becomes the Taliban truck of choice, or Ford or whoever.Or they just import them from outside of the region, they already know how to smuggle. It's just a thing, that gets used by people, like a big Mercedes sedan for the leader of a banana republic.. -Curt On Friday, August 20, 2021, 10:50:14 AM EDT, Dimitri Seretakis via Mercedes wrote: https://www.insidehook.com/daily_brief/vehicles/taliban-toyota-third-world-warfare?utm_source=facebook_medium=social_campaign=ihsocial=IwAR29PHOWeNJBtEBnVzYZ15ujm2oQcViThjlipoTPUiAGosTYOaNwpYmaKSM Sent from my iPhone ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
