Per someone I know who has some experience in this area. They claimed the Taliban is highly fractured, tired and doesn’t have a direction. Some sects of the Taliban will absolutely reject the idea and they likely will violate the agreement. The question is the will more “moderate” portion be able to control the more violent portion.

I no longer have a problem with that. I'm pretty much done with the festering shit hole that is the middle east. I'm done with US soldiers spending their lives for no reason at all, I'm done watching tax dollars flushed down that bottomless pit of ignorance.

Afghanistan isn't the middle east.
 
What I cannot believe is all the people willing to give Trump a free ride again...knowing his track record!
This was purely political and was timed so it would make the most impact, with little to no truth or facts about what was actually agreed!
Just imagine the rhetoric and false claims of accomplishments that will be fed the american people as we get closer to the general election......

So your OK with our Tax dollars being flushed down other shithole projects ??
Why aren`t we using those tax dollars to feed the truly hungry who live in our country??
Trump would rather have a wall than feed the hungry children who have no food due to no fault of there own!! Hungar is rampant in some parts of our own country!!

Please. Afghanistan is central Asia. If we want out of the middle east, that means Iraq, Syria & Persian Gulf Sheikdoms where we've actually increased our presence under Trump.

Please 100% of the people understand when someone says middle east that includes Afghanistan. 100%.
Nobody would say let’s get our troops out of Central Asia!
 
I’m glad. I think this treaty will lead to a bad result for us but I think that result is inevitable.

One of the only times I’ll say this: good on Trump. Assuming he follows through.
 
Is it seem odd to anyone else that administration isn’t bragging about this in their normal way?

Have any actual details been released?
 
Hey.... A peace deal is a peace deal. Hope it works out...

I often wonder what would have happened had we not invaded Iraq and instead coordinated a response with international partners to put more resources into Afghanistan, and demanded that countries like Saudi Arabia stop funding the spread of radical Islamism with real world consequences. Or whether it would have been possible to pursue Al Qaeda in Afghanistan without actually occupying the entire country.
