Beyond The North-West Frontier

The Taliban are not killing American troops at the moment. The Americans are still bombing them, but on the ground they currently have a ceasefire against the Americans. Of course, they are still attacking the forces of the puppet regime in Kabul.

And back when the Taliban were indeed killing American troops, then no one needed to pay them to do it. Least of all would they have taken such payment from the successors of the Soviet invaders against whom they were created. Created, that is, by the United States.

This is a staggering front for Joe Biden to open up. It draws attention to the fact that a war that he has always enthusiastically supported, and enthusiastically prosecuted as Vice President, is still going on after 18 years. "Osama bin Laden is dead"? So what?
