Half a loaf is better than none at all? But it reminds me of the Vietnam peace talks. The NVA & VC got to rest up and re-supply before they eventually took South Vietnam.

The Taliban is a military organization.

If you want peace with them - you need to talk to them.

It's hard to someone if your soldiers are shooting at them.

This is a non-story in my opinion.

The Taliban has no ideology? No political agenda? It's just a military machine with no purpose but to kill for killing's sake?

Hmmm...I never would have considered that.
