Afghanistan will soon be purged of its authoritarian nightmare. Decentralized finance and an influx of capital without controls is coming. Saudi oil will be valued by the amount of Bitcoin it can produce. It won’t be long before even the Taliban finance themselves with Bitcoin and learn to respect the free market.

“In a decree signed by Uzbek President Shavkat Mirziyoyev, public institutions have a duty to establish all the legal parameters necessary to lawfully allow bitcoin trading and other forms of “digital money” to circulate on Uzbekistan’s economy.”

“This makes Uzbekistan one of the pioneering countries in the area of cryptocurrency use in Central Asia, and while some relatively permissive countries have demonstrated neutrality, Uzbekistan proposes not only readiness to adopt them but also to promote their use.”

“The human right of every man to his own life implies the right to find and transform resources: to produce that which sustains and advances life. That product is a man’s property. That is why prop­erty rights are foremost among human rights and why any loss of one endangers the others.”

“There are several aspects of this important truth. In the first place, each individual, according to our understanding of the natural order of things, is the owner of himself, the ruler of his own person. Pres­ervation of this self-ownership is essential for the proper develop­ment and well-being of man. The human rights of the person are, in effect, a recognition of each man’s inalienable property right over his own being; and from this property right stems his right to the material goods that he has produced. A man’s right to per­sonal freedom, then, is his prop­erty right in himself.”

“There are no human rights that are separable from property rights. The human right of free speech is only the prop­erty right to hire an assembly hall from the owners, to speak to those who are willing to listen, to buy materials and then print leaf­lets or books and sell them to those who are willing to buy. There is no extra right of free speech beyond the property rights that we can enumerate in any given case.”

“In situa­tions where all the factors in­volved are owned privately, it is clear that there is no problem or conflict of human rights; on the contrary, only property rights are involved, and there is no vague­ness or conflict in deciding who owns what or what is permissible in any particular case.”

“The rights of the individual are still eternal and absolute; but they are property rights.”

Human Rights are Property Rights | Murray N. Rothbard

Much is heard these days of the distinction between human rights and property rights, and many who claim to champion the one turn with scorn upon any de­fender of the other. They fail to see that property rights, far from being in conflict, are in fact the most basic of all human rights.

You’re not going to kill every last member of the Taliban. They are part of the social fabric of the country. That would require a genocide of a good percentage of the Pashtun population.

“US Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary for South and Central Asian Affairs Alice Wells has said that she has been told by her friends in the Afghan government that the Taliban are part of the social fabric of Afghanistan, and believe in the nationhood of country.”

Taliban are a part of the social fabric of Afghanistan, Kabul tells US diplomat – The Express Tribune

Alice Wells says ultimate solution to Afghan conflict lies in a political resolution, not on military battlefield
