Afghanistan's president says the U.S. can no longer carry out military operations or airstrikes and must jump-start peace talks with the Taliban before his country signs a security deal to keep American troops in Afghanistan after 2014.

Can there be any doubt ? Mohammed Karzai is himself an agent of the Taliban

Afghan president again demands US airstrikes end

OK fine. We'll stop, but we're going to do just one "final" one.

How ‘bout this. America stops the airstrikes and pulls all of its “boots on the ground”, in the air and on the sea out and let Karzai engage in a “Hug In” with the Taliban. Sounds like a deal to me.

I don't why we're still negotiating with Karzai or anyone in Afghanistan. I've said it since day one.....our causes such as teaching Afghani girls to read, resources and pipelines aren't worth as much as one more US military person getting even a scraped knee.

Let the Taliban have the mess. We'd be better off not letting Afghanis or their poppy seeds leave the country.....lock them in that cesspool.

Karzai best have another country to live in after we leave. He isn’t long for this world then. He will be room temp within a year.

We’re supposed to do what for that pedophiliac society?

Depart and let em rot!

[Logical me]

If Karzai invites the Taliban back in perform an air strike on Afghan and vaporize the land. And take parts of Pakistan with it. Capture Karzai and execute him as a war criminal.

one of the biggest mistakes of the cold war was giving so much aid to the muhajadeen. we should have given them just enough to stay in the war and kill soviets and be killed. one of the biggest mistakes of post cold war was putting troops on the ground in this cesspool.

Hey!

Maybe the U.S. could demand the Taliban stop killing Americans?!?!?

[ogen hal]

I read where the USA will abandon $7,000,000,000 worth of equipment there when we leave. Destroy it all. Leave nothing to these poppy-growing moozlum maniacs.
