“Through our negotiations, America has secured strong commitments from the Taliban to permanently sever their ties to international terrorists.”

As a throw in we get the Brooklyn Bridge, too.

-— I don’t buy criticism from Bolton or the like either, though.

Trump made a great point that he had his chance.

We defeated the Taliban in one week.

Then we neglected to de-Taliban the country the same way we de-Nazified Germany and ended Japan’s emperor worship etc...

It all could have been finished 17 years ago or so.

Today is a sad day that marks a victory for the Taliban after they attacked us on our own soil on 911.

That the Taliban exist today bears witness to a US loss.

Bush and Obama admins had ample time and all the resources in the world to eradicate the Taliban, but chose not to.

The Pakistanis WILL continue fighting over there. They have been fighting with the other tribes over there since the beginning of time.
They Afghanis have been fighting since the beginning of time...

They all fight over land, water, past and current family feuds, you-name-it. The Hatfields and McCoys have nothing on them.
Nothing changes over there. It's mountainous, dry and nasty..worthless land. No petroleum, no water, no minerals, just dust and poverty.

Taliban-why was Trump trying to make it sound like the Taliban are not that bad. Have they reformed?

Just tell people the truth, and not coat the Taliban in honey & sprinkles, with “mmm,mmm good.”
