Apples and oranges. Desert Storm was all about oil and the Red Sea
Lanes, in response to an attack on Kuwait.
This time America suffered a cowardly sneak attack. Only significant
product of Afghanistan is Opium. This might interest the crackheads
but not others. This war is on terrorists around the world, focused on
muslim extremists for the moment. Opium is available in abundance from
Turkey and SE Asia in the natural form, and in almost unlimited
quantities in the synthetic form.
