The Secret War for Afghan Oil

Before the towers fell and the war began, there was a deal on the table that could have changed history. This documentary explores the hidden geopolitical chess game between the U.S. government, the Taliban, and global energy giants over a multibillion-dollar pipeline. The "Carpet of Gold" vs. the "Carpet of Bombs" In 1997, Taliban officials traded their combat gear for business suits, traveling to Texas to negotiate a massive energy transit deal. While the official 2001 invasion aimed to dismantle Al-Qaeda, internal reports and whistleblowers suggest a different motive: The TAPI Pipeline.
