admits multiple things that are good to hear, they know they can't win, they can't take Kabul.....notice how leery he is to talk about Pakistan.

if you think that this will change ANYTHING than you're a complete idiot! extremists will still attack UN and American troops at will... they don't need a leader, just a cause!

do you know the difference between Al Qaeda and Taliban

just curious

they're both boogey men brown people who we have to spend billions of dollars trying to kill and nation build their countries while ours falls apart.... but something tells me you think we need to give up more of our liberty and money to continue to kill them and their families and women and children civilian casualties... that never would motivate anyone to fight against the U.S. right? Having their family members blown apart by a bomb dropped by a drone controlled by some prick in a CIA office in Virginia somewhere deciding who lives and dies like it's a fucking video game and then going to play golf with his buddies.... nothing wrong with that picture at all right?

nope very far off oggy

Taliban are religious islamists who rose to power under Mullah Omar in 1996, they gave Bin Laden safe haven after he left the Sudan (broke) and paid the repercussions for sheltering him after he killed their main enemy on Sept. 9, 2001 (Ahmad Shah Massoud)


this is a big deal if they are openly admitting their break from the Al Qaeda (even rejoicing in Bin Ladens death) and willingness to negotiate.
