Central Asia may finally be stabilizing? The Taliban might not be your ideal government, but it’s a well-supported government in a region that’s dealt with way too much chaos and way too much bloodshed.
You may want to double check your facts. If I were you, thankfully I am not, I would take the defeat and move on. No one wants what the West is selling, you had 20 years and 2.3 trillion dollars to prove your point and you failed.
At this point US military involvement is out of the question. If they get cash for minerals from Xi, they might get to some welfare state condition similar to Saudi with plenty of repression but at least some prosperity to show for it. Might be preferable to their current state.
They are making solar panels in Afghanistan now with technology imported from China.
If Afghanistan is left alone it can develop and progress. When the modern Saudi state started out a 100 years ago it was basically like Afghanistan. And this is it now https://youtu.be/FC0bl2PObW4
