U.S. speeds up direct talks with Taliban

Re: U.S. speeds up direct talks with Taliban

Agreed with the part that we should not need outsiders to help fight our war. But there are two problems:

  • there wouldn’t have been the need for Americans to get involved if we had not created this monster with Saudi help in the first place. So it is a little difficult for me to believe that we will not do the same thing again if outsiders are not involved. But again, in theory I do agree with you.
  • people who want outsiders (Americans) out, stop right there. They do not go one more step and say that we should fight this war on our own. This gives an idea that their only aim is to throw out outsiders but then again turn a blind eye to extremism being nurtured in Pak by our “brothers”, the “other” outsiders from Middle East.
