We'd manufacture them ourselves. It is that simple.
As for China supplying the Taliban with weapons, I don't really doubt it, but then there were worries about going into Afghanistan in the early days because of the threat posed by the formerly US backed "Mujahideen" (who went on to become - you guessed it - the Taliban).

Good luck getting South America to meet the world's requirement for manufactured goods. By the way, do you mean every country in South America? Would that include, say, Bolivia and Peru as well as Brazil, Chile, Uruguay and Argentina?

We've made our bed, so now we have to lie in it.

That's an odd sentiment, coming from one who replied in contradiction to an opinion with which you disagree. My compliments on your artful use of irony!
