President Obama is prepared to accept some Taleban involvement in Afghanistan’s political future and is unlikely to favour a large influx of new US troops being demanded by his ground commander, a senior official said tonight.So Barry O looks like he is once again going to vote present, except that in this case he will be sentencing hundreds if not thousands of women to death and brutality at the hands of these radical Islamists. Their circular logic is that the Taliban will not welcome Al-Queda back into their midst.
Mr Obama appears to have been swayed in recent days by arguments from some advisers, led by Vice-President Joe Biden, that the Taleban do not pose a direct threat to the US and that there should be greater focus on tackling al-Qaeda inside Pakistan.
At the same time. evidence is coming to light that Iran may indeed be supplying the Taliban with weapons and supplies with which to wage war against our forces, just like they did in Iraq.
If this does indeed become the course of inaction that the administration chooses, I do not know what to say to all those service members and the families of those left behind, that would justify this.
And what to say to all of the Afghanis who will no doubt be massacred just like what happened in the aftermath of Vietnam and in Cambodia.
