Talks with Afghan insurgents draw closer

I don't think it will work if any al-Qaida are citizens of the country. The citizens of the country don't want war and certainly don't want foreigners in their country.Karzai isn't going to say too much that will cause them to change their minds, but he benefits from US because of constantly providing funds that he can jam in his pocket.

Yep, that is Obamas exit strategy taking shape here: Declare victory and let the Taliban take over.

Every singly Western life wasted between now and the withdrawal next year for keeping the sharade going is a bloody shame on this government.
